If the life is viewed and considered in all its situations and variations, then it can be recognised that life means a constant struggle, a continuous careful study of one's own innermost (self) and outer self. The innermost self, which exists in the deepest consciousness, reflects the values of the creational spirit, but in opposition to that, the human being forms the outer self, the outer personality, according to his/her own views and understandings, by means of his/her thoughts and feelings and will. And, as a rule, this outer self, this outer personality, which is also released outwardly in the environment as one's conduct, completely contradicts the innermost self which has a creationally-given nature.

In the constant argument between the two forms of self, other factors continually attempt to interfere, which overlayingly and superficially fight again and again to misguidingly shove themselves above the current occurences of self-struggle. However, the innermost self nonetheless incessantly struggles through again and again, and again and again always drowns out and covers over the outer self, which is foreign to Creation and is created by the human being himself/herself. It is always there, constantly ready to break through the accumulated, tangled confusion of the outer personality in order to allow the human being's thinking and feeling to assiduously flourish and be effective, in accordance with the innermost creational self. This may very often only happen allusively, but it also proves its existence through the human becoming contemplative and contemplating the most varied things, events and situations as well as his/her behaviour and virtues, and so forth – even if that often only happens for extremely short periods, without great effect, and calls forth no noteworthy change of the external self, the external personality. Nonetheless, the innermost self constantly has the power to bring at least a vague smile to the human being's facial features, even if this is only brief and barely noticeable. However, this fine smile testifies that the innermost, the spiritual, the creational self, without doubt stands above everything; invulnerable, exhalted and wise, quite in contrast to the outer self, the outer personality, which is positioned outwardly for show and through which the human abases himself/herself and presses himself/herself into the dust.

The human being's innermost, spiritual-creational self is his/her most precious possession, the most valuable pearl of his/her life, the greatest of all treasures concealed in him/her and the greatest value that he/she carries around with himself/herself. His/her innermost self, his/her true self, which has a creational nature, is the true stone of wisdom. It does not consist of silver, gold or precious stone, rather, it consists of creational energy and true creational love – constantly ready to penetrate the human being's deepest consciousness and also his/her external consciousness, so that he/she listens to it and orientates himself/herself accordingly, in order to live in the creational-natural sense, to be progressive and to fulfill his/her life according to the laws and recommendations. But the human being almost never listens to the call of the innermost spiritual-creational self and only seldom feels its pulsating impulses which call upon him/her to really live, to be human, to create knowledge, true love and wisdom, and to be evolutive.

The true innermost, spiritual-creational self, is the eternal light, the radiating shine of the all-great-time – in all the darkness and gloominess which surrounds the human being in his/her life led in a self-willed form. The true, innermost self wants to make the human being into a king and emperor over himself/herself – but it is this human being who, in irrationality and imperiousness, counteracts and disgracefully misuses and abuses the true, innermost self, because he/she frantically seeks his/her external self-realization, and the realization of his/her external personality, outside of all the creational-natural values of his/her innermost self. But it is nonetheless always quite close to the human being – in every single moment. It must only be recognized, understood and utilized. Only the human being's union with his/her innermost spiritual-creational self, makes him/her fertile in the regard that he/she recognizes himself/herself in his/her deepest depths of his/her consciousness, and from that can create a conscious, healthy and positive self-realization.
