"When studying honeybees, one will find that they are creatures whose secrets are not easily elicited. A bee colony is an extremely complex entity. It consists of many thousands of individuals who have the ability to respond wisely to a wide variety of circumstances. To this day, it is not clear how they achieve this. In fact, one could say that a bee colony is imbued with an incomprehensible wisdom that encompasses each individual bee and ensures that the colony remains viable despite ever-changing living conditions." -- Karsten MasseiWith Gifts of the Honeybees, Karsten Massei presents the fruits of years of careful intuitive research into the spiritual and elemental reality of honeybees. Karsten's sharing of his ongoing dialogue with the inner being of the bees gifts us with surprising insights, giving us the opportunity to look at the world of bees, and ourselves, with different eyes.There has been a great deal of research and speculation about the reasons why bees are dying. The causes are varied, but there is no doubt that all causes ultimately lead back to human activity. Technical and economic development that began in the nineteenth century has increasingly led to dealing with the beings of nature disrespectfully and in a way that is destructive to life on earth.The spiritual beings that are connected with the life of bees, and whose messages are shared in this book, unequivocally voice that the plight of bees is actually the plight of human beings. They ask us to finally "wake up" to the spiritual reality of our world and the already evident consequences if we do not.Gifts of the Honeybees is a translation from German of Die Gaben die Bienen (Futurum Verlag, 2014).

How awake are we to our inner being, our true nature?How much self-knowledge do we really have?In terms of our intrinsic self, we can easily feel like a novice. Indeed, we face a long journey before we can fully understand ourselves, and we are equally unpracticed in relating to our "shadow" and inner wounds. The path described in this book is within and concerned with strengthening our individuality, one's "I." Based on lifelong research, Karsten Massei created a valuable workbook for coming to know and heal ourselves. In a series of brief chapters he explains the interplay and tensions between human individuals and the nature of our "inner and cosmic child." Both are complex entities but are also directly related; both are deeply connected with our destiny. Our experiences with our inner child are often still in the earliest stages, but noticing, cultivating a relationship, and holding conversations with our inner child is vital and offers ever deepening experiences for us. As insights expand, our frailties, deficiencies, and inner wounds can be seen. The being of the inner child wants to educate us to become inwardly truthful and authentic. Only honest engagement with our soul's traumas and vulnerabilities will enable a true picture of ourselves to arise.Child of the Cosmos offers surprising perspectives arising from the author's personal experiences, opening a clear path of personal development. The text is complemented with seven special meditations to help us engage with the challenges ahead.

Is the world around us alive or is it dead?Chorus of the Elemental BeingsIn your hands rests The life of the earth.In your souls Give it the right to live As is fitting for it. Then it cannot fall Which falls so easily, For it is old, But youngIt remains through you.If the widely held belief were true--that matter is the basis of all we know as reality--then life would make no sense. The world would essentially be dead--an absurd notion! What we know as life would be an unexplainable phenomenon, an astounding but accidental miracle. Does this sound familiar? In the undeniable presence of life, this belief can never truly make sense. It demands faith. Thus materialism is superstition. If we dare to entertain the notion--albeit akin to a modern heresy--that life (being), not matter, is the foundation of what we know as reality, then both matter and life make perfect sense.Karsten Massei--who is exceptionally sensitive to the invisible beings of life that surround us always and everywhere--offers a gentle but powerful call, from those beings themselves, to discard superstition and begin to awake to the reality of life.As beings of the living Earth, we have certain responsibilities, too long neglected. The Earth is not an abstraction--a dead "rock" hurtling through space--but a living being. The elemental beings, who are intimately, intrinsically connected to the living Earth and to the living human race, suffer from our indifference, egoism, and ignorance of life, but they have much to teach us and patiently await our attention."Know your environment!"
