The Concentrated Centre of Nature · Passage 38
German
Nicht alleine aber die Seele verdarbe oder fiehl in Adam und Eva, sondern weil alles aneinander hing; so steckte das Seelen △ auch den Geist und den Leib an. Der Geist und Leib zündeten an Lufft, Wasser und Erde, und zwungen sie per Consensum mitzufallen, weil Geist und Leib das Universale Centrum oder Hertz waren, und die Krafft der Imagination in ihrer Mutter, Lufft, Wasser und Erde hatten.
English
But it was not only the soul that was corrupted or fell in Adam and Eve. Because everything was connected, the soul’s △ also set spirit and body alight. Spirit and body ignited air, water, and earth and compelled them to fall along with them by consent, because spirit and body were the universal centre or heart and possessed the power of imagination within their mother—air, water, and earth.
