Good Girard Illustrates Imaginative History
- The tale of Good Girard shows medieval souls picturing history through imaginations rather than factual detail.
- Gerard redeems prisoners and returns a bride, inspiring an emperor to moral renewal without seeking earthly reward.
Imagination Misread By Emerging Intellect
- In the pre-spiritual-soul era imaginations remained but were interpreted by an increasingly intellectual mindset.
- People then mistook poetic spiritual images for free fictions because they lacked the soul's previous clairvoyant relation to them.
Lucifer Versus Michael In Soul Evolution
- Luciferic forces exploited the transitional soul-state to keep humans musing in imaginations and away from clear intellectual apprehension of the physical world.
- Michael counters this by guiding intellect to remain rooted in its divine spiritual source, preventing a Luciferic distortion.
