The preliminary work is summarized as making the visible invisible and then the invisible visible and tangible again. This paired movement describes changes of manifestation during preparation; it does not assert creation from nothing. The English renders begreifflich as “tangible,” linking restored visibility with bodily apprehensibility in this material context. The result remains incomplete for medicinal use and can be harmful, so becoming clear or perceptible is not proof of safety or final perfection. The entry therefore keeps the reciprocal visibility pattern attached to its stage and warning rather than treating it as an unrestricted law of spiritual revelation.
