What if there’s a complete account of existence — not a partial answer, not a belief system, but a logical world picture you can actually check? This is the first video in a three-part introduction to Martinus and his work.
Martinus had little formal education and worked as an accountant. Nothing pointed to what came next.

In 1921, Martinus sat in darkness, focused on God, and experienced what he called a spiritual initiation. He received both a mission and something he described as permanent intuition — the answer arriving directly, without working through steps. Artists and scientists get glimpses of this. Martinus got it permanently.
His mission was specific: describe the world picture in a form people could actually follow and check against their own intelligence and experience. He spent the rest of his life doing exactly that, writing until his death in 1981.
The result is Livets Bog — the Book of Life — seven volumes and roughly 2,500 pages, plus 100 visual symbols, the Eternal World Picture series, hundreds of articles, and decades of lectures. All of it developing one thing: a complete
account of what existence is.
This is not a new religion. Martinus was clear about that. There is no membership. His reasoning: we don’t have membership for 2+2=4. It’s just how things are. His work is offered as knowledge — something you can follow, test, and either
find holds up or doesn’t.
Part 2 looks at the most fundamental concept Martinus describes: what a living being actually is at the most basic level. Part 3 covers where humanity stands right now in the larger picture, and what that means for what we see around us.
Sometimes life forces you to ask the big questions. This channel explores a world picture where the answers actually hold together.
