I-69 Parallel between the human being’s life cycle and that of Christ’s journey into and out of the mineral-physical Earth

The Fifth Gospel, Lect. 3

The 7-stage process of the human being’s cycle from conception to upper devachan (for the upper four levels, see I-33) is paralleled by Christ’s entry into the Earth as the Spirit of the Earth and the taking of his body back into the spirit world. That his Baptism was his “Conception” in this process, see Lk 3,22 (fn in RSV), as well as Ps 2,7. The process can then be tabulated as follows:

Baptism	=	Conception
3 years	=	Gestation (embryo)
Mystery of Golgotha	=	Birth
40 days	=	Etheric panorama (Etheric World)
Ascension	=	Kamaloca (Astral World)
Pentecost	=	Devachan (Lower Spiritland)
End of Age	=	Devachan (Higher Spiritland)
