Heavenly Ladder:

translated by Google Translator
1. Life miracle:

That; I
AM,
fills me with ever new AMAZING.
And this means
LIFE.

(Rabindranath Tagore )



2. Life Expansion:

The path to God
is called in its last stretch
Loneliness.

(P.Lippert)



Prayers
are the streets
to the afterlife. 

(Gertrud von le Fort)



God is HAPPY,
if you bother him.

(Pfarrer von Ars)



4. Life-LOVE + 
Reality-WIDE

Only in love
Let's grow TOGETHER 
between heaven and earth.

(E. Drewermann)



Of every LOVE between people,
that it makes the other UNIQUE.

(E. Drewermann)



In every love
the other becomes the door,
which leads TO HEAVEN.

(E. Drewermann)



LOVE + RELIGION
grow together in the feeling:
in the BEATIFIC PRESENT 
of a person you love with all your heart,
to be carried to God
and through his person
to see the gate to HEAVEN OPEN.

(E. Drewermann)



2. Life Expansion:

Death
is the side facing us
that WHOLE,
its other side
Resurrection is called.

(Romano Guardini)



God did not CREATE us,
to LEAVE us.

(Michelangelo)



3. Life's home:

Where are we going?
Always go home.

(Novalis)



This is hospitality 
deep meaning,
that one give rest to the other
on the way 
for the eternal home. 

(Guardini)



There is no proof in the Platonic sense, 
for making us immortal;
but there is that feeling, 
that only LOVE can give:
only she tells us, 
It is GOOD that we ARE,
yes, it is infinitely better, 
that we exist, 
as if we didn't exist;
Only love teaches us, 
TO UNDERSTAND GOD,
who wanted us to be...

(Eugen Drewermann)
