Temporary materialisation will one day become a kind of "virgin birth" that can raise reincarnation up beyond the present form of physical birth and death
Temporary materialisation requires only seconds, whereas ordinary materialisation demands days and months. The former happens therefore at lightning speed. Here an entirely different output of matter is needed, an entirely different contribution and output from the medium who here takes the place of the mother. If the most important part of the matter did not return to the medium on dematerialisation it would mean a more or less fatal catastrophe for the medium. We cannot go into this in more detail here, but must refer the reader to the coming analyses in my main work "Livets Bog (The Book of Life)". We shall however mention here that such a materialisation is in reality a physical birth. This physical birth differs from ordinary physical birth by being a kind of virgin birth. This birth, in the form of a temporary materialisation, is not due to any sexual fertilization or reproduction. It is not the result of a previous act of sexual intercourse between a male and a female being. This virgin birth in the form of materialisation is still a very rare phenomenon and is, so to speak, unknown to ordinary people. But this does not alter the fact that here and there in closed groups or circles, through a cooperation between physical and psychic beings, this virgin birth is in the process of being developed to such a level of stability and to such a capacity that, at some time in the future when people will have reached a very much higher ethical stage than their present one, it will come to sustain reincarnation and free people from the present coarse and painful process of birth and death. People will then, instead of being born from a womb, be painlessly materialised; and their death will be merely a dematerialisation. The process of reincarnation will then no longer be the alarming mystery of death that it is today for ordinary people. In the coming Golden Age for terrestrial mankind the kingdom of Christ, which was previously not of this world, will become a kingdom on earth, a "kingdom of heaven" in the physical world or on the material plane. The beings' immortality is then a fact on the same physical plane. But before people can attain this wonderful, elevated form of life neighbourly love must be complete, for the permanent or lasting form that the principle of materialisation will then constitute is exclusively conditional on neighbourly love and the associated changes in the psyche of terrestrial Man. It is precisely because neighbourly love between beings is not fundamental that materialisations today can only be produced as acute or momentary phenomena and not in any long-lasting or permanent form whatsoever. The present momentary materialisation is not based on morality but, on the contrary, on will and concentration.
