Life is thus the greatest and most important school in existence. It is the very book of books. It is the very source from which all wisdom unfailingly stems. And since no one can exist without their life being a “reading” of this book, no can exist without being “taught” by this book either. But since being “taught” by this “book” is the same as being perfected, everyone is thus subject to a process of being perfected.
(Logic, Introduction)

Rather early on in his body of work Martinus published two shorter works: Logic and Bisættelse (On Funerals). Logic is a kind of introductory book describing many of the main principles in his analyses; Bisættelse (On Funerals), which is not yet available in English, deals with our responsibility for the microcosmos within our organism, and includes an analysis of future humane forms of funerals.
Two other books have been published in the original Danish and are not yet available in English translation.
Collection of Articles 1 contains Martinus’ collected articles published in the magazine Kosmos from 1933-1983. Intellectualised Christianity consists of posthumous manuscripts from the 1970s until his death in 1981, when he was preparing the first publication of his works under the common title The Third Testament. |
