Works: miracle

Miracles denote an interference of the marvellous in the sensory realm. [GTUFS: GnosisDW, The Sense of the Absolute in Religions]

This phenomenon has in itself nothing mysterious or problematical about it: the so-called natural laws of a lower degree of Existence can always be suspended through the intervention of a higher degree, whence the perfectly logical term “supernatural”: but this degree also has its laws, which means that the miracle is “natural” on the universal scale, while being “supernatural” on the earthly scale. The purpose of the miraculous phenomenon is the same as that of the Revelation which it accompanies or as a result of which, or in the shadow of which, it is produced: to elicit or to confirm faith. [GTUFS: LogicT, Oriental Dialectic and Its Roots in Faith]
