The Threefold Life of Man

Hohe und tiefe Gründe von dem dreifachen Leben des Menschen (De triplici vita hominis)

Retrato póstumo de Jakob Böhme
byJakob Böhme

It extends the Three Principles by applying them to man, who lives three lives at once: that of the soul's fire, that of divine light and that of the outer world and its stars. It analyses how man may lose himself in the outer life or be reborn into the inner, and devotes long pages to prayer, repentance and the confessional disputes of his day, which he judges a Babel of opinions.
