Talk given at Parklands (Manchester, UK) on 27th November 1977.
What is meant by Heavenly Jerusalem?
"...it is a peculiar city, it is a city that needs no light of sun or moon, for the light of it is constituted by the Glory of God and the Light of the Lamb, His Son, so that already we have a definition. What we are looking for, what we hope to develop into is a being that needs no external light. We don’t need an external sun, we don’t need an external spotlight, we don’t need an external moon, we don’t need external stars. Our goal is that our light shall be inside. Here is your Heavenly Jerusalem...".
How are we to build this Heavenly Jerusalem?
"What has happened to every great civilisation that has established its bricks one on top of the other so securely that it has not needed to attend to them?
It has fallen down.
It actually dies in the middle of its greatness because it begins to rest on its laurels. It stops the necessary striving to transcend its own previous creation and as soon as you stop the movement to transcendence of going beyond your own design, you are already dead. It is only a matter of three hundred years and you will really fall over. Rome was dead three hundred years earlier than it showed itself because it had begun to rest on a concept that was built originally by man."
Eugene discusses the process whereby we can develop all aspects of being and realise the Heavenly Jerusalem, the city of God, within.
