Words to Accompany Sigwart’s Communications
Sigwart! For long years we guarded your legacy, in anxious concern that the ignorance of callous thinking should not disturb the tender strands uniting us with you, our brother. Now, in a time when many arms reach out to your worlds in bitter need, may your words sound forth to others as well, as comfort and hope. We too believed back then when you were torn from us and from your glad flurry of artistic activity that we would never be able to laugh again. Too deep was the rent in our ardent companionship. But your strong force of soul and our love, purged in suffering, overcame all obstacles. Out of widths of worlds, beyond space and time, your words resounded in our hearts, at first faintly, then ever more clearly.We did not force you down to us in ghost-like nocturnal seances; no, in light and sun you came to us freely and called on those souls capable of taking in your words with clear spirit and lucid consciousness. In this way we took part in the life of your spirit. Your love built the bridge of light across which we came to meet you.May your words now resound in other souls and give them the certainty that there is a fervent bond uniting us on Earth with the departed and their world.Those who humbly seek and bow down in reverence may themselves hear the silent call one day, coming toward them lovingly from the other side. Whitsun, 1950 Marie and Lycki
