The Bible and Wisdom II

This is the historical, outwardly real event that took place so often in the mysteries for the initiates. Such was the course of the initiation that took place in ancient times in the deep darkness of the mysteries for those who left their physical bodies for three and a half days after the preparations for initiation, and who during this time walked in the spiritual world and beheld in the spiritual origins of humanity that a spiritual-divine being descends into the physical world, and that this event would one day take place as a historical fact. That was the course of initiation.
