Thank you,,of course I had to read the whole lecture to get the full context of the verse. Uncanny how well he depicts the beasts in us. And more now than ever as I read his work, it’s seems as he speaks in the language of the higher beings, and I will need to carefully examine the meaning closer. I really liked these two paragraphs at the end of the lecture.

“If we approach spirit-knowledge accompanied by them, ignoring the Guardian of the Threshold’s warning, we encounter the yawning abyss. One cannot pass over it earthbound, nor with fear nor mockery, nor with doubt. One can pass over it by grasping in thought the spirituality of being, by experiencing in feeling the soul of being, by strengthening the activity of being in the will. Then the spirit, the soul and the activity of being give us wings of release from the weight of earth. Then we can cross over the abyss.
The steps of prejudice are threefold and will cast us into the abyss if we fail to acquire courage, fire and creative knowledge. If, however, we do acquire creative knowledge in thinking and we want to activate thinking, if we do not wish to approach the spirit in dreamy lassitude, but receive the spirit with inner heartfelt fire, and when we have the courage to really grasp the spirit as spirit, not merely letting it approach us as a materialistic picture, then will the wings grow which will carry us over the abyss, where every human heart that is honest with itself today desires to go.”

Yes of course, I should have been more specific about what was meant by children.
We are all God’s Children. I am now seeing that when answers come from the higher powers, there is a language barrier. One has to view the communication from their vantage point. How they view us, is the same way that we view our own children. No matter how old our own children are, we always refer to and consider them our children. A Much satisfying contemplation occurred over this message of 4 words once deciphered. So much so it’s to much to detail, however the one realization I would like to impart is this. Remember that feeling of security of your home and parents when you were a very small child that they could fix anything, that no matter what happened they were there to pick you back up, put you back on your feet, dust off your britches, give you that hug, fix that boo boo on your knee? That feeling, knowing came back to me, I now know the same holds true in our celestial family.

Coincidentally in another tab I had a page from the Rudolf Steiner archive pulled up related to another line of inquiry that I was pursuing and after reading your post I thought I would share this verse from it:

Yes, you must beware of the abyss;
Otherwise its beasts will devour
You, if you pass by me in haste.
Your cosmic age has placed them there
In you as enemies of knowledge.

Behold the first beast, the crooked back,
The bony head, the scrawny body,
His skin is all a dullish blue;
Your fear of creative spiritual being
Begat the monster in your will;
Knowledge bravery alone will overcome it.

Behold the second beast, it bares
Its teeth in a warped face, scornfully it lies,
Yellow with gray spots is its body;
Your hate of spiritual revelation
Begat this weakling in your feeling;
Your flame for knowledge must subdue him.

Behold the third beast, with cloven muzzle,
Its eye is glassy, posture slouching,
Dirty-red its form appears to you;
Your doubts in the power of spiritual light
Begat this ghost within your thinking;
Your creative knowledge must make it yield.

Only when you’ve defeated the three
Will wings sprout upon your soul
To fly the abyss over,
Which separates you from the knowledge fields
To which your heart desires
to consecrate itself in healing.

Hi:

“They were targeted by the Governor and the mayor.

They were locked out of their own business.

They kicked their own doors in to open up their Gym.

They were stripped of their business license for trying to run their business.

Now they are a GOP campaign headquarters and just told the State of New Jersey to stick it up their ass.”
