Today it is not like this. Today great masses of human beings have lost the faculty to believe, because their instinct has more or less degenerated on account of the development of their intelligence. They have thereby got the faculty to analyse, carry out research and to observe. All according to how this development increases it causes a demand for logical arguments or scientific substantiation of every thought or concept that they are to accept as truth. It would be absolutely absurd to blame these beings for their condition, for to them it is impossible to believe in these religious dogmas, just because they are presented only as conclusions or postulates without logical or scientific support. It is for this reason that the present book of symbols and the main work to which the symbols are a supplement have been produced. This book is thus so designed as to help those human beings who cannot possibly believe in bare assertions or postulates without any intellectual or logical substantiation, but who, nonetheless, with heart and intellect, search for the justification for the condition of Doomsday, which they begin to perceive must exist behind the daily life's primitiveness and foolishness. To these human beings' cosmic study there is here opened a road to life's own over-all justification of the darkness in the world as a link in the creation of the eternal maintenance of the keynote of the universe: Love.
