Esoteric Lesson

What we see around us in the natural world and what serves as food for us humans is there because the gods on the old moon thought evil as well as good, just as we must now do. Just as the mineral soil provides nutrients for the plant world, so our mental images of evil within us become the soil from which good nourishes itself. The mineral kingdom of the earth came into being because the Elohim on the moon conceived evil, error; from this came the substance, the mineral kingdom of the earth, and from this substance Yahweh was able to make man, giving him his material envelope. But the fact that we also have evil in this form in our earthly development, in the form of evil deeds and everything that is bad, comes from the Luciferic gods, who did not conceive evil on the moon (where it would have been in its proper place and would have become nourishment), but on the earth. And so the “thinking of evil” of the Luciferic spirits on Earth is the cause of the evil deeds and errors of human beings.
