Dialogues on the Supersensual Life by Jacob Boehme Pdf
Taken from the Preface: "Man has a spark of the Light and Spirit of God, as a supernatural gift of God given into the birth of his Soul to bring forth by degrees a new birth of that life which was lost in Paradise. This holy spark of the Divine Nature within him has a natural, strong, and almost infinite tendency or reaching after that eternal Light and Spirit of God, from whence it came forth. It came forth from God, it came out of God, it partaketh of the Divine Nature, and therefore it is always in a state of tendency and return to God. All this is called the breathing, the moving, the quickening of the Holy Spirit within us, which are so many operations of this spark of life tending towards God. On the other hand the Deity as considered in itself, and without the Soul of man, has an infinite unchangeable tendency of love and desire towards the Soul of man, to unite and communicate its own riches and glories to it, just as the Spirit of the air without Man unites and communicates its riches and virtues to the Spirit of the air that is within Man."
Dialogues on the Supersensual Life (Classic Reprint) by Jakob Boehme Pdf
Excerpt from Dialogues on the Supersensual Life The Works of Jacob Behmen, the "Teu-tonic Theosopher," translated into English, were first printed in England in the seventeenth century, between 1644 and 1662. In the following century a complete edition in four large volumes was produced by some of the disciples of William Law. This edition, completed in the year 1781, was compiled in part from the older English edition, and in part from later fragmentary translations by Law and others. It is not easily accessible to the general reader, and, moreover, the greater part of Behmen's Works could not be recommended save to those who had the time and power to plunge into that deep sea in search of the many noble pearls which it contains. Behmen's language and way of thought are remote and strange, and in reading his thought one has often to pass it through a process of intellectual translation. This is chiefly true of his earlier work, the "Aurora" or "Morning Redness." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Dialogues on the Supersensual Life by Jakob Bohme Pdf
Jacob Boehme's Vom übersinnlichen Leben (On Supersensual Life) is a dialogue between a wise older mystic and his student. The student asks questions such as: Why do love and suffering exist side by side? How far are heaven and hell from each other? Are their men and women in heaven? The mystics answers them by giving answers such as: love must have an object, therefore it exists side by side with suffering; heaven and hell are everywhere but their relationship is like day and night; there are no men and women in heaven but everyone is of the same sex. The answers are based on Scriptures. Where Scriptures do no provide a clear answer, the mystic does something that one may not have expected a mystic to do: he reasons by using metaphysical concepts, such as form and matter (not time and space), and quasi-metaphysical metaphorical ones, such as dark and light. He does not quote authorities (no namedropping!). Instead, he reduces metaphysics to these simple key concepts that he has distilled from his readings and study. Neither does the mystic appeal to his own supernatural experiences, even though the title of the book may have given the reader that impression. No, he did not ascend to heaven, neither in body nor in spirit, like his Swedish counterpart Emmanuel Swedenborg. There is a heavy emphasis on reasoning while experience is almost completely absent. Experience is only referred to when the mystic gives his student some hints about feelings that the student might expect when putting the mystic's advice to practice. For that reason, it is not surprising that Hegel called Boehme the first German philosopher. (Jonathan Widell)
