Carl Welkisch
Carl Welkisch (born December 14, 1888 in Gloden, Province of Posen , † August 9, 1984 in Überlingen ) was a German spiritual healer and mystic .
Life
From 1903 to 1907 Welkisch completed a commercial apprenticeship in Grünberg and Schwiebus . After stays in Gloden and Posen, he worked as a healer in Bromberg from 1910 . After training with the physiognomist Carl Huter in 1912, he ran a healing practice in Breslau . In 1928 he moved to Berlin . In 1934/35 he was imprisoned in Wroclaw prison and in the Columbia-Haus concentration camp (Berlin) without charge . After a stay in Sweden (1939/40) other stations were Schwusen (Silesia) (1939-1945), Klein Polkwitz (Silesia) (1945-1947), as well as Wiesbaden , Weidenberg and Meersburg , until his final residence in Überlingen in 1953 Lake Constance found.
To his self-image
According to his own statements, Carl Welkisch had an experience of God at the age of 7 when he was called to bring God's power and love to earth. From childhood on, Carl Welkisch was open to the visible and invisible world due to his special disposition. In his experiences of Christ and God he was shown that he should let God permeate not only his soul but also his earthly body. He describes it in his autobiography Im Geistfeuer Gottes - Revised 1979 as a lifelong path of suffering and love. High experiences of Christ and God would have strengthened him. In his book Man between Spirit and World , he has put down his experiences and knowledge about the path of man in this world and the other. The mystic should carry his great love borne by God into the body and into the outside world and especially participate in the transformation of sexuality , as he described it in the book In der Liebesglut Gottes .
