49. Woche (9. - 15. Maerz)
Ich fuehle Kraft des Weltenseins:
So spricht Gedankenklarheit,
Gedenkend eignen Geistes Wachsen
In finstern Weltennaechten,
Und neigt dem nahen Weltentage
Des Innern Hoffnungsstrahlen.




49th week: ( March 9 - 15)
Thus speaks the brightness of my thinking:

"I feel the force of Cosmic Being!"---
remembering the growth of its own spirit
during dark cosmic nights.

How it anticipates
the coming cosmic day
with rays of inner light!




4. Woche (28. April - 4. Mai)
Ich fuehle Wesen meines Wesens:
So spricht Empfindung,
Die in der sonnerhellten Welt
Mit Lichtesfluten sich vereint;

Sie will dem Denken
Zur Klarheit Waerme schenken
Und Mensch und Welt
In Einheit fest verbinden.





4th week: (April 28 - May 4)
Sensation speaks!

"I feel the essence of my being!" ---
swirling through torrents of light
in the sun-brightened world.

How sensation yearns
to bestow upon thinking
the gift of warmth
that leads to clarity---

and fuses into unity
the human being and the world.
