by John-Peter Gernaat In this group, the focus turned to an inner path of development. At Easter we can look at the steps that Christ took on his way to the Cross and relate these to the inner steps we, as human beings, can take. For Christ, these steps are the Washing of the Feet, the Scourging at the Pillar, the Crowning with Thorns, the Carrying of the Cross, the Death on the Cross, the Burial and Resurrection, and the Ascension. These seven steps are mirrored in an inner path of development that is Christian.
The human being is unique of all that exists on earth. We have an incarnated spirit. What does this mean? An animal has a direct connection with the spirit because there is no incarnated spirit in the animal. It therefore acts in direct accord with the spirit. Because we have the spirit in us, we have a freedom to connect or not to connect with the spirit in the world of spirits. We have choice. Our spiritual well-being is thus in our hands.
