I would always like to achieve that we do not just take away a certain knowledge from such reflections as those made today, but that this knowledge is transformed into feeling. And if all the ideas that have been put forward today were to pass away like dreams, if only one basic feeling remained, which I have tried to summarize in these concluding words, such as “dying in Christ,” enables us to place ourselves correctly in the spiritual world so that we can carry it through the physical world into our next incarnation on earth, if this feeling remains with us, then we carry the right thing from such a contemplation into our future life.
