This is because all those human beings need no religious direction and none of their beliefs anymore, who, through their own consciousness based cognition that alone the human, natural and creational spirit in the human being is able to completely master and to direct everything, allows them to recognise good and evil and makes them self-thinking and self-acting human beings. The actual decisions and deeds of every human being are only partly based on entirely conscious considerations because the greatest part originates from that area which is withdrawn from the immediate influence of the will; the subconsciousness as well as the small brain and the unconscious, whatever one wants to call all of this. In the subconsciousness, in the most hidden and inextricable depths of the brain, all doings and omissions are prepared, which to a large extent determine the life-course and the life-destiny of the individual human being. Despite this, however, nothing would be more misguided than the opinion that the human being him/herself would have no influence on the whole course and the sequence of his/her life. t would be false to think that the human being is merely an inactive spectator of his/her own destiny, driven only by all the dark or luminous powers and currents to which the individual is at the mercy of, on the basis of their heredity, up-bringing and environment. Because exactly here the personal thought-power and the personal life attitude of every individual human being step into action. Exactly here, this circumstance is useful to every human being that precisely through this hidden source of his/her decisions, deeds, actions and wishes, the subconscious can be formed tremendously much by him/herself through the absolute, conscious thinking. What the human being carries around with him/herself in imaginings, thoughts, wishes, ideas and fantasies, etc., what he/she continuously cultivates in thoughts, sinks down very deeply into their subconsciousness and forms their life, mode of thinking, their personality and their destiny. Here lies the handle for the shaping and fulfilling of the life and of the inner nature of the human being. The human being, in his/her character, his/her deeds, actions and wishes, represents exactly the product of what and how he/she thinks. He/she therefore embodies in every respect his/her consciousness attitude, its powers, cognitions and its will. The cross-section of the world of thought, that is absolutely certain, embodies exactly the cross-section of the course of life. What a human being thinks, namely, that will occur sooner or later because every thought is an unborn action, a nascent deed or effect. The more often a thought is cherished and the more intensively it is nourished, the more strongly it swells up and pushes uninhibitedly into the realisation. Just as how a seed, through the constant moistening, swells, germinates, takes root, grows and then develops into an ear of corn. No human being is able to act completely freely in the given moment, insofar as his/her guidelines of his/her world of thought and world of imagination decide from the outset the kind and the character of his/her doings and deeds. What the human being has carried around with him/herself long enough in thoughts, entirely unconsciously triggers in them their real direction of consciousness and spirit which, like a perfect automatic mechanism, unfolds and brings into effect the corresponding decisions and actions according to their inner nature.

Consequently, therefore, it is not of great significance for the course and success of the life what efforts are made in the given case in order to solve presented tasks or to achieve objectives which have been once set. Rather, it is of very great importance with which mental basic-attitude the life and a task or an objective to be achieved are approached. Every consciousness-attitude and life-attitude brings forth a very distinct starting point for the character-, action- and philosophy-life. This alone decides whether the human being as an individual finds the right start, respectively, whether he/she begins a work with certainty or uncertainty. Habits, tendencies and distinct actions are the developments of corresponding thoughts, which in the course of the time eventually gain such a might over the human being that they change his/her whole character and with Gewaltsamkeit imprint their stamp on him/her. The inconspicuous thoughts, wishes and fantasies, nourished continuously and daily, become all-dominating demons or tremendously useful powers when they are nourished and cherished in the lines of the very-badly out-of-control-of-the- good-human-nature negative or the valueful positive. One can, however, destroy all powers of the negative and positive again if one withdraws the power of life from them, namely, the thoughts and imaginings from which they have been created and nourished. Thoughts form every individual life. This can be tested attentively by every human being him/herself; and everyone will find this fact confirmed: As rich as a life was of good, forward pointing and life-correct thoughts, as great and life-correct were the successes. As much nonsense, faint-heartedness, pusillanimousness and life incorrectness it contained, as rich it was in disappointments, deprivations and suffering, etc. Only strong, broad-minded and courageous thinking leads the life upwards, whereas weak, narrow-minded and faint-hearted thinking oppresses, breaks and ultimately destroys everything. So fundamentally every individual human being, indeed even every family and every people have to live exactly the destiny and the life which they prepare for themselves in thoughts. Pity would be fully out of place here because every individual human being, every family and every people could help themselves if they only wanted it. And with this, the wanting is meant literally because if a human being does not make an effort for the building up of a will because it is too strenuous for him/her, then it is said with justification that it is only because he/she simply does not want to. How apposite the ancient words of a great wisdom can be inserted here: “The smith of the destiny is the human being him/herself.” Only that human being does not remain lying halfway in the life who is carried high up by the tremendous momentum of his/her mighty thoughts. Who, however, prefers to concern themselves with depressing and pusillanimous thoughts, ruminates over experienced defeats and disappointments and does not free themselves from them, will achieve no or only little success even with all efforts. From the narrowness of egotistic thinking, pusillanimous views and self satisfying assessment, absolutely no viable philosophy and thus no positive life-direction and life-formation can arise.

Those who cannot free themselves from the thoughts of a suffered terrible thing, a defeat or a failure, will have these terrible things, defeats and failures repeatedly and ever again and again befall them. Those who are constantly afraid of evil, mischance and other terrible things, conjure them up directly until they strike him/her devastatingly. With worries only new worries are bred, and those who see only grievances and shady sides in their surroundings get themselves into grievances and fall on the shady sides of the life. With irresistible, magical Gewalt, the thought attracts that which it is directed towards in an intensive and stoic or intensively-creating manner. As soon as someone thinks negatively of an abyss in a manner which is very badly out of control of the good human nature, he/she falls down from dizzying heights, is shattered and crushed and falls prey to the sucking power of the bottomless depth, which is in reality only the reflection of his/ her own thoughts. Only a consciousness possessing Wesen is able to grasp, to recognise or to feel a consciousness-based vertigo feeling, because only such a Wesen is capable of thinking. Any latent danger can therefore only become acutely very badly out of control of the good human nature with a consciousness possessing Wesen, this, in the moment when the thought is concerned with this danger in a manner that is very badly out of control of the good human nature. Precisely at this moment, the decision is namely made as to whether it will be overcome or not. A child, not yet conscious of any danger or consciousness-based effects, overcomes a looming danger with playful certainty, while a pessimist, on the other hand, loses almost or often even abruptly all resistance power out of pure and naked anxiety and concern and falls prey to the danger. Their anxiety or their pessimism literally calls forth the danger or the terrible thing. Thus an old proverb can also be woven in here: “Only that human being escapes the death who disdains it, but it catches up with the faint-hearted one.” An angstful human being and a consciousness-based failure will never master the life because anxiety, pusillanimousness, faint-heartedness, disinterest and indolence in the long run destroy, with absolute and gruesome Gewalt, every inner security and every will for the positive life. The inner security, basic prerequisite for the good formation and utilisation of the consciousness and the life. Life-anxiety, depressions, life-insecurity and many other things of the same character are the consequence of lost life- and spiritual-orientation. When the consciousness-based life of the human being is no longer directed towards a distinct guideline, it loses the foundation of its conscious existence. No personality and no character grow by themselves. They form themselves, grow and unfold according to very distinct leading thoughts. To possess a character means nothing other than to live precisely according to the consciousness-based guideline, its evolution and advancement, to hold fast to it and to advocate it. Depending on the consciousness-state and its evolution, the character of the individual human being is shaped.

So therefore, it lies in the power and in the discretion of each individual human being him/herself as to how his/her character forms or gets very badly out of control of the good human nature. As long as the human being still possesses this tremendous gift, for so long he/she is also still able to represent their own firm standpoint in the world or in their surroundings. Only through this can he/she form a clear worldview and be a real human being.
