Conversations with St. Germain
What is Artificial Intelligence and the Internet?

"Gather the dried sage and lavender, Sophia," Tyla said to her granddaughter as they entered the small herb garden. "I will do some watering."
The day was warm and blustery with the evening sun casting a magical golden light over the garden and pond. Tyla looked through the spray toward the sun just as Christian was walking towards her through a lattice bower of blooming Morning Glories.
"Hello, Christian," Tyla called out excitedly. "What a wonderful surprise to see you. So amazing you would show up just when we were talking about you. What are you doing in the area?"
"I was just talking with your neighbor about his bio-dynamic permaculture project that is coming along quite nicely since last I was here," Christian answered.
"Quick, Sophia, go get your grandfather before St. Germain disappears as quickly as he appeared," Tyla said to her granddaughter. "Come and sit down by the fountain here," as she gestured to the wooden bench, "in the shade and rest awhile. Douglas should be out in a moment."
"Certainly," Christian replied, reaching up and picking a perfect, ripe peach from the low hanging fruit tree branch. "I love your peaches, Tyla. You know, the pit of the kernel will extend life as long as you don't eat too many of them," Christian laughed as he took a bite out of the peach.
"I am so glad you have come to visit today," Tyla said full of anticipation of hearing Christian's insight into some questions she and Douglas had. "Since your last visit, much has happened. I wrote an article about our last conversation and shared it with many people. It caused quite a stir because people don't want to believe that masters exist in the physical body and can visit a student who is ready to learn from them. People called me names and accused me of sensationalism for using a "channeled" source."
"Yes, that is understandable, Tyla," said St. Germain with great warmth and compassion in his voice. "I am basically invisible to most people, even when I am speaking to them. It is hard for materialists to understand that masters and avatars are among them and help out all the time. I often stand at the threshold to protect developing aspirants from untimely accidents that might lead to death. Even these highly developed beings may not be able to see me when I appear before them and speak the warning. They may hear the voice, but not perceive my etheric form. Highly evolved beings can appear anywhere on Earth to help as many people as necessary. Time and space are easily manipulated by consciousness. So it does not surprise me that casual readers of your articles would doubt that I exist, let alone that you can have a conversation with me."

"Without new spiritual impulses, technology would not only dominate outer life, but would overpower
and numb us, driving out all
religious, philosophical, artistic
and even ethical interests
in the
higher sense - men would turn
into
something like
living automata."
Rudolf Steiner
GA 158, 11.4.12

Do you know where the masters live?

Esoteric history recognizes Shambhala as an actual land or district, the seat of the greatest brotherhood of spiritual avatars and their masters on earth today. At certain times in history, messengers or envoys for spiritual and intellectual work come to humanity from a place called Shambhala.
This Great Brotherhood of Masters and Avatars has etheric lodges in various parts of the world, but Shambhala is the center or chief location. Theosophists locate it in a little-known and remote district of the high tablelands of central Asia, more particularly in Tibet.
According to esoteric teachings, Shambhala is surrounded by an Akashic veil of invisibility. Airplanes might fly over it and not see it at all. Armies of soldiers might pass through it and not know that it existed. It is said that some of the most valuable records of the human race are located in its libraries. There, surrounded by the greatest and most evolved human beings, the Silent Watcher of the Earth has his invisible abode.
The physical threshold of Shambhala is said to comprise two localities on Earth. These are actually physical doorways into the etheric realm. One of them is situated in the highlands of Asia, somewhere west of the meridian line passing through Lhassa, China. Long ago, this locality was a sacred island in a vast Central Asian inland sea, known as the 'abyss of learning' or 'sea of knowledge', and was accessible via subterranean passages. According to tradition, this place exists today as an oasis surrounded by the Gobi Desert.

Can you step out of your intellectual comfort zone and examine the world with a new perspective? Can you examine the geo-political and financial situations in the world with spiritual knowledge and face Ahriman here and now?
|
"It is precisely by taking into his mind that form of spiritual intelligence to which the Ahrimanic Powers have no access, that man gains the strength to meet Ahriman in the world, to encounter him here."
The Michael Mystery, From Nature to Sub-Nature, Chapter XXIX, GA 26

More from Steiner on Ahriman:
And from the earth there will spring forth a terrible brood of beings, a brood of automata of an order of existence lying between the mineral and the plant kingdoms, and possessed of an overwhelming power of intellect.
This swarm will seize upon the earth, will spread over the earth like a network of ghastly, spider-like creatures, of an order lower than that of plant-existence, but possessed of overpowering wisdom. These spidery creatures will be all interlocked with one another, and in their outward movements they will imitate the thoughts that men have spun out of the shadowy intellect that has not allowed itself to be quickened by the new form of Imaginative Knowledge by Spiritual Science. All the thoughts that lack substance and reality will then be endowed with being.
The earth will be surrounded - as it is now with air and as it sometimes is with swarms of locusts - with a brood of terrible spider-like creatures, half-mineral, half-plant, interweaving with masterly intelligence, it is true, but with intensely evil intent. And in so far as man has not allowed his shadowy intellectual concepts to be quickened to life, his existence will be united not with the Beings who have been trying to descend since the last third of the nineteenth century, but with this ghastly brood of half-mineral, half-plantlike creatures. He will have to live together with these spider-like creatures and to continue his cosmic existence within the order of evolution into which this brood will then enter.
GA 204

Do you know the story of this famous painting entitled
From Solomon through Golgotha to Christian Rosenkreutz
by Anna May von Rychter? Also known as the
Grail Triptych, the images in this painting came from indications Dr. Steiner gave the artist.
In Anna May's description of the painting we find the following: It's not symbolic, it is a painting of spiritual history.
This painting expresses in images what Steiner otherwise expressed in his writings and lectures. The theme is the Holy Grail. In his book Occult Science he refers to Anthroposophy as a Grail Science.

There is a continuous reciprocal feeding
and nourishing
between the spiritual world
and the human.

To grow a spiritual ladder upon which to climb out of the darkness and into the light, one must rarify the spirit through morality training and higher thoughts. At the same time, the physiological effects that accompany this transcendence are wondrous. In anthroposophy, the process by which the spiritual journey is expressed within our body is known as the
etherization of the blood
, or the
earthly and cosmic nutrition stream
. This is a give-and-take exchange between us, as initiates, and the spiritual beings that comprise our own nature.
By offering etherized elements through the earthly sustenance that travels from the heart to the head, we receive a cosmic gift: a nutrition stream that flows into our bodies through our sense organs, nerves, and glands. We give the spiritual hierarchy what they need, our offerings of Imagination, Inspiration, and Intuition. In return, they give us spiritual nutrition.
