A Poem to Humanity
Like a cherry tree thrives and blossoms,
so will people on Earth soon live in bliss and harmony
And just like a cherry tree gives its fruit to others,
so will people on Earth share their gifts with the world
And like the cherry tree’s abundance depends on the soil it grows in,
so is our abundance related to our connection with Mother Earth
In fact, the life of a cherry tree isn’t so different from ours
Both of us evolve with each cycle of life,
without the possibility of turning back
Why?
– Because life always brings us forward,
in an eternal spiral called evolution
For every completed cycle,
the cherry tree creates a circle around itself,
remembering what has been, and acknowledging the passing of time
Proving transformation and growth, but also of the end approaching
Each cycle must come to an end,
before a new one begins
And each cycle must bring you to the unknown,
before it leads you back home
However, never to the same place
Expansion and contraction
Breathing in and breathing out
That is the essence of God
Think about it
How could there be expansion if there were no contraction?
How could someone breathe in without breathing out?
How could there be love if there were no life?
Like a cherry tree finally turns to ashes,
so will our body eventually decay
And just like a new cherry tree will be born,
in a slightly different form,
so will we be reborn,
in a slightly different form
This is evolution, this is life, this is the only way
The cherry tree and we constantly transform ourselves,
but the principles of God remain the same
After winter comes summer
After night comes day
And after rain comes sunshine
There is a particular rhythm of life,
a tone that can be heard and felt in our hearts
Let’s begin to listen to this music,
allowing our lives to flow in the most incredible ways
Welcome to The Fourth Testament
Welcome to The Fourth Testament, written to help humanity understand who they are and how they can thrive in this earthly experience of life.
Before you begin to read, I would like to share a few words with different target groups.
To the young boys or girls, maybe between 15 and 30ish
You may not yet have enough experience from your own life to understand everything brought up in this book, but instead, you probably have a more open mind than someone who has spent almost an entire life learning things.
Still, you represent the main category of people for whom The Fourth Testament has been written, and many of you will likely absorb its message easily.
That said, you might be quite deeply involved in New Age spiritual practices and feel sad about some of the ideas presented here, such as that crystals should be best placed where they are in the ground, that being vegan and fighting for the climate maybe isn’t the best way to create love, and that you maybe have to grow a bit older to step into your real mission in this particular incarnation.
However, you are the future of this planet, and after integrating the content of The Fourth Testament, which maybe involves re-reading it a few times, you are hopefully prepared to live a fantastic life.
To the mature woman, from 40ish and above
The difference between you and younger generations may be your openness to discussing sexuality and lovemaking, which is central to The Fourth Testament.
If you can accept this aspect of the book, you will probably appreciate many other things, including, for example, the revelations about a woman’s role in society, hopefully feeling empowered to connect even deeper with your feminine essence.
You will hopefully understand how incredibly important you are and maybe realize that the patriarchy has led you a little astray, which, of course, may trigger some bitterness.
However, beneath these layers of trauma, you are a knowledgeable witch, a sensitive healer, and a devoted performer, embodying the most profound aspects of God.
It’s time to bring them to the surface.
To the mature man, from 40ish and above
Some parts of The Fourth Testament might appeal to you more than others, especially the Genesus and the three masculine Gospels, which represent your home turf, so to speak.
You might feel triggered by the recurring discussions about the importance of feeling life, which, for you, in your capacity as a mature man, isn’t easy, even though you are most likley more sensitive than the average man your age.
You might also feel guilty for not having been the man a woman needs to flourish, or feeling accused of not having been that.
If so, remember that the only thing that matters to you is your truth. But if you feel inspired to do things differently, the rewards will be massive in terms of the things you have dreamed about, including money, love, and health.
Lastly, you embody God’s masculine qualities, exemplified by the three archetypes of the wise sage, the action-oriented warrior, and the intuitive lover. Let’s bring them to the surface to benefit us all, especially yourself.
With love

Prologue: Achieving the Prophecy of Paradise
Spring
The first chamber of the cosmic heart, spring, is about rebirth into a new cycle of life, marked by a fresh opportunity to fulfill your desires, as long as you aim for healthy ones and execute them through grounded planning.
Spring is an invitation to get to know yourself better, which connecting with your desires essentially is.
Summer
The second chamber of the cosmic heart, summer, is the time of the year to create at your fullest potential, transforming visions and plans into your truth – your reality.
Therefore, summer is an invitation to get to know the world around you.
Why? – Because it’s impossible to create anything meaningful without collaborating with others.
Fall
The cosmic heart’s third chamber, fall, is about feeling your creations and letting these feelings transform who you are.
Therefore, fall is also a time to connect with the spiritual worlds, where those beings live who can help you shed skin.
Winter
The cosmic heart’s fourth chamber is called winter and relates to two things: the death of your old self and the rebirth of your new self.
Consequently, the fourth stage of life is about starting to live on a higher level, though not as high as during spring when the ultimate yearly rebirth occurs.
Paradise
Paradise is the reality for everyone who feels and connects with the cosmic heartbeat instead of trying to outperform others.
It’s for those who have realized that we are all one being, though with individual qualities, and that it benefits everyone to reach our full potential by living openly and authentically.
When everyone becomes a blessing to themselves and others, an earthly paradise appears.
