Spiritual Forces
Spiritual forces, processes and events affecting the human being

These lectures have been selected from the original lectures given to the Order by the Master of the Order, Rev Mario Schoenmaker. These particular discourses come from the period between 1988 – 1993 and they focus on the spiritual forces, processes and spiritual events that affect the human being.
Ultimately, this study is about human consciousness and the forces that underpin it and impinge upon it. You will come to recognise the great variety in human consciousness that we display and experience.
The main themes in this series are the Deed of Golgotha, the presence of Christ in the etheric, the Luciferic and Ahrimanic forces, the human form, the Buddha event, the role of the Zodiac and the planets, and the trinity of our being. At times Mario goes far back in time, at others forward. There is a cosmic and evolutionary perspective at times, at others it is more historical and at others the forces and processes of daily life are examined, but there is always a personal application to be drawn from each discourse.
There are more forces, processes and events than will be covered in this course, but those presented will enlarge and enrich our understanding of the spiritual forces behind our lives and of the significant events in the heavens and the earth, and in particular the Christ force and the Christ purpose. A certain amount of intellectual openness and rigour is required for this study in order to see the connections and applications but the focus will engender a greater perception and sensitivity to the spiritual forces and processes working on and around us.
