How peaceful and untampered-with stand the foundations of the spiritual temple you have built over many years. This fortress will endure for centuries, and what human hands have erected around it is only a small part, which in its temporary destruction must not frighten you. You have eyes to see, don’t you, what has blossomed forth out of your actions! Do not forget the foundation once blessed by Christ your Lord. I am waiting for your help for the reconstruction of this shrine. You need to know that your/our work was not in vain, even if everything bears the appearance and the signs of destruction.

It is I, Sigwart, and I want to say a few words to you. Fear not, the Lord is near! Every jarring of the earth is nothing but a closed bud springing open for us here. Every soul that departs from the body is a new star in our heaven. Every heart that loosens pain from the bonds of matter is a gleaming up in the spirit. Thus it is good if you consider these events from a perspective that leads far beyond hatred and its human ramifications. The Lord is near. This is the great turning-point toward the spirit, which will be inaugurated with thunderous storming. When our Lord touches the earth with the tip of His foot, everything will keep silence. If now you work toward listening to spiritual music you will sense the effect even without hearing the tones. But you should love this exalted entity, which from now on wants to become incorporated in our circles and yours.
I want to tell you today about the mighty event happening to you. Just as the holy miracle came alive for the disciples at Emmaus when they found the Savior once more, in the same way it was given to you to experience the miracle of His words. And these words found your hearts like rays of light. And then they will ripen into acts of love, you will wander in your Lord’s footsteps.
It is so especially important that we stay in closest contact, because our common work now demands our full strength and the highest love and devotedness. Let us set a certain day of the week that suits all of you, and for this day and hour we will give you a series of prayers for gathering strength that then will permeate the spheres as “one”. These prayers are passed on to us by our holy seven priests, and we ask that you even now turn to them in gratitude. And then one of the communications given must be read by you every day, sentence by sentence.
We are watching over the circle as guardian spirits and every single link that forms the chain! It is out of our awareness of just this responsibility that we may now not enter into contact directly, but through mediators only. You need to be fully aware of this, until other times take the place of these!
I have wanted for quite some time to tell you that we met Rudolf Steiner. For Sigwart that was easy, since he knew him during his life on earth – and he took me along. Sigwart hadn’t sought out Steiner sooner, because he wanted first to bring his work with the circle to a certain state of completion and only then come in contact with him. Now that has been done, and it was a momentous and intensive meeting between the two. They discussed many things and Sigwart went away feeling very satisfied and enriched. It was also a great moment for me to come close to this great and radiant spirit in full consciousness. He himself had long since been observing everything, but as long as one is not “awake” for the proximity of great spirits oneself, they can be near one and one doesn’t see them.

It is very difficult to take up our contact once more. There are a large number of friends and helpers helping us, but we have not been entirely successful. These words are also being relayed by the helpers who declared themselves willing to build a sort of provisional emergency bridge until we can get through. It is a pity that you so seldom look for and find the necessary frame of mind, for otherwise we actually could speak to you now and again; and thus as time passes we are losing the possibility entirely. You are also losing the ability to hear words. But I need to stress once again that we are allowed to interact with you in a spiritual manner only; if you pay attention to anything else, you will lose the way! Latest publication: communications from June to July, 1925.
