A CIRCUIT OF DAILY REFLECTION FROM THE 7 STATIONS OF

JOHANNES KELPIUS: FOR THIS SEASON OF CONTAGION &


NECESSARY TIME SPENT AT HOME, BY RUSSELL R.YODER
DURING THIS TIME OF HEIGHTENED RISK, WHEN SO MANY ARE COMPELLED TO SPEND
“EXTRA TIME” AT HOME (IN YOUR OWN HERMITAGE): TRY ESTABLISHING THESE
“STATIONS” FROM THE DIARY OF JOHANNES KELPIUS FOR PAUSING IN BRIEF
“REFLECTION” AS YOU GO ABOUT YOUR DAILY “ROUNDS” EACH DAY.
SIMPLY PRINT OUT & TAPE ON BITS OF PAPER AT THE APPROPRIATE SPOTS (ON WALLS,
WINDOWS, OR DOORS).

EAST WINDOW (UPON


ARISING): It is your as well as my desire to see that happy day, yet in our
days, with its glorious Sun---darkness into light, death into life, justice into
mercy, imperfect metals into gold; and all Wise virgins comprised into one
Dove.

FRONT DOOR, OR OTHER DOOR


SAFE TO OPEN TO THE OUTSIDE: We can neither find nor know this Dove,
except we ourselves become as doves; and as soon as we be such, forthwith
we can FLY to join the others.
WHILE ATTENDING TO ROUTINE
TASKS (IN THE INTERIOR OF THE HOUSE): By knocking with faith upon the
hard Rock in Horeb it is transformed into a fresh fountain of the water of life.

PAUSING FROM OTHER


ACTIVITIES, OR IN THE KITCHEN BEFORE LUNCH: From out of the Cloud that
guideth, so many droplets of heavenly dew continually fall upon us as a
baptism of grace.

IN A LIVING ROOM, STUDY, OR


PLACE FOR READING: What is lost sight of by “magicians” is brought home
unto them assuredly in divine power, from the simple ground of “faith-
magic.”
AFTER DARK, TOWARDS
ANOTHER EAST-FACING WALL OR DOOR, ESLEWHERE IN THE HOUSE: There
followeth a night upon the day, wherein the fiery column, as God in the east,
purifies and preserves us.

BEFORE RETIRING, AT A
WINDOW WITH AT LEAST A PARTIAL VIEW OF THE SKY: No wonder your
continual gazing causes you to observe with the other Children, every
Phenomenon (meteors, stars, and various colors of the sky); if peradventure
you behold at last a Harbinger of that great Jubilee and glorious Sabbath
without intervening or succeeding nights!
