Synopsis

A young man goes off to university with a set of promises to his father that he must fulfil. In the tumultuous world of the university, these promises prove more troublesome than expected.

Conditions under which his father gave his son permission to attend university.

1. You shall visit church every Sunday and feast day, for high mass, with unforeseen hindrances at least attending a mass.
2. You shall be alone with closed doors and windows every day for one hour, but you shall not occupy yourself with your usual studies, but rather thinking about yourself, about your relationship to us, to nature, to God and to humans, and remember each time your mother.
3. You must not enter into any political associations, whatever name or goal they may have.
4. You must not duel under any circumstances. Self-defence is allowed, for which learn to fight, ride, and everything which seems helpful to you for that. Self-satisfaction is an intervention into the laws which turns the infringer into a state criminal.

About the Authors

Johann Baptist Krebs (1774-1851) was a renowned opera singer, director of operas, freemason, and esoteric writer who wrote under a number of pseudonyms (in particular, J. B. Kerning). He developed a form of letter mysticism composed of the concentrated thinking and feeling of letters through the parts of the body. This practice had its Biblical foundations described in his student Karl Kolb's The Rebirth.

J. B. Kerning was a pseudonym used by Johann Baptist Krebs (1774-1851), a renowned opera singer, director of operas, freemason, and esoteric writer who developed a form of letter mysticism composed of the concentrated thinking and feeling of letters through the parts of the body.
