The Pure Spiritual Science
Page 467 of 728

In the kingdom of the Supreme Eternal, all beings are in communion with the Supreme Lord, because they never oppose his will, whereas in this material world, instead of being in agreement with his divine will , they still disagree. The human form allows us to learn to comply with the orders of the Supreme Lord.

The laws of material nature are very strict and no one can override them. But anyone who surrenders to the Lord and consents to do his will can easily overcome these implacable laws. Any human being who devotes himself very seriously to the service of love and devotion which he offers to the Lord can reach, over time, spiritual perfection and thus enter the kingdom of God.

Logos 196

God, the Supreme Person, is present in the material world in its form of eternal time, and He is neutral towards all beings. No one is his ally, or his enemy. In the realm of time, all beings receive the fruits, good or bad, of their own self-serving acts, or karma. The beings in this world, according to their particular karma, know a life of pleasure or suffering.

Although God, the Supreme Person, is the original cause of all causes, He is not responsible for anyone's material suffering or happiness. At no time are individual beings independent. As soon as they declare themselves independent from the Supreme Master, God, they are immediately placed in this material world, so that they can freely try their luck, as much as possible. The material world is therefore created for these misguided beings who decide their own karma, or self-interested acts, and take advantage of the time element; thus they make their own destiny, good or bad. All beings are created, all are kept alive for a time, and all must ultimately die. With regard to these three aspects of life, the Lord shows himself equal to all. It is according to his own karma that the being must suffer or enjoy material existence. The various positions, more or less high, attributed to beings in this world, their joys and their sorrows, are due to their own karma.

God is full of benevolence, He gives everyone an equal chance, but each one, by the effect of his own karma, must know in this material world a life of suffering or pleasure.
