"The Lodging for the Rose"

A series of 12 novels
by Rolf A. F. Witzsche

The novels are fiction, designed to explore the future in the context of those universal principles that enable us to have a future. Unfortunately, these principles are presently deemed fiction. Therefore, a new yardstick is needed that reflects the principles of the 'normal,' the Universe, and its timeless movement by which life unfolds and mankind develops its civilization.

The series presented here combines twelve novels as a single story of six families interacting against the unfolding background of the eternal renaissance principle, the Principle of Universal Love. 

The series presents a challenging tale of exploring Love in a world where loving is increasingly shunned, or has been made shallow, where mankind is torn by divisions and society darkened by isolation, where the nations are torn by war, crippled by impotence, choked by insanity in economics, with consequences that have put into question the survival of civilization if not mankind as a whole, especially with the return of the Ice Age on the horizon. 

The novels and science books are presented here as an auxiliary to exploring the processes for creating a new renaissance. See: (Home Page)

What are the limits of our humanity?
Are there any limits?
We face physical limits, perhaps - the distance of space, maybe.
but are there limits to the mind, to thought, to love?

Does one 'melt' the world to do it?
Or is the task simpler,
like melting the ice in the heart?

that is brighter than the sun.

many windows are flung open;
love flings aside barriers, transparent and fragile,
 of a glass that has no strength against love.

Do we live by water and bread, alone? 
We become alive in joy, sometimes with a daring to be true to ourselves,
we become a movement set in motion with an imperative of its own,

 "Discovering Infinity"

A series of 12 books of

Each volume of the series pertains to a unique level of thinking. This classification was put on the table by Dante Alighieri in the 14th Century with his three-part epic poem, The Divine Comedy. Dante takes us through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise in three successive steps. This corresponds to Volumes 1-3.  However, Dante takes two persons through these stages, a pilgrim and his guide. Volumes 4-6 represent the journey from the standpoint of the guide.  (More about the series)

All science books are available for free as e-books

The pilgrim on his quest seeks enlightenment,
his path traverses Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise, mapped out by Dante.
But who will guide the seeker? Will it be Science?
Our roots are in universal history, but our future will be Science. 

When the 'giant' becomes an empty shell,
the inevitable happens.
But the hell inside this shell can be a place for discovery,
We can find an exit from this hell of horrors, 
even while the light is still dim. 

When Saturn is devouring one of his sons
he does so not with 'greed' to nourish him
but out of fear.
The giant cowers in fear, fearing the poet, and reacts in rage. 

Does healing the soul equate to healing the body?
Is there a God, Christ, and divine Spirit,
and a divine Principle of scientific mental healing?
What healed mankind in distant ages?
Was the medicine Mind?

When the future determines the present with love,
we discover the heart of our humanity.
Thus we discover the emptiness of the 'fire' that would destroy it.
We also discover a brighter 'fire,'
a flame that glows with the light of universal love? 

Unknown to the world, Mary Baker Eddy, the discoverer and founder of Christian Science, created a scientific monument in the form of a vast pedagogical structure for discovery and scientific and spiritual development. All of her major works come to light as but parts of this single structure.  She poured ten major constituent structures into one, single, seamless pedagogical structure. The book presents an exhaustive exploration of it.

Mary Baker Eddy's book, the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, was first published in 1875. It documents her understanding of what she termed, "the final revelation of the divine Principle of scientific mental healing." Since it is a part of her pedagogical structure, a special edition has been prepared that incorporates that linkage.

A collection of 26 Bible lessons is presented in this book, each fully printed, one per week to cover half a year. The biblical texts are interspersed with corresponding elements from Mary Baker Eddy's book, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. The historic lessons from 1898 are uniquely edited with an extensive scientific overview that links them to Mary Baker Eddy's pedagogical structure.

The science of love to heal the world of fascism and society of its smallness in thinking, based on advanced concepts by Mary Baker Eddy

Is evil a power
or a negation without power?
Is darkness substantial,
or is there substance only in light,
against which darkness cannot stand?

Our bread comes not from the sky,
nor does it come from the Earth.
It is the product of the human mind,
drawn from the discovery and application of universal principles,
our infinite dimension.

"Woman is the highest term for man."
Mary Baker Eddy, (1884)

Is our goal victory,
or to raise the standard of achievement?
