Free will. From the writings of Martinus 1-2. Translated and published by Óskar Jensen.
Martinus Thomsen or Martinus (August 11, 1890 – March 8, 1981) was a Danish writer and mystic. Martinus was born into a poor family and raised by his uncle and aunt. His mother was an unmarried housekeeper at a manor house, and a worker named Thomsen was the registered father, but Martinus did not consider this paternity correct and tried hard to get rid of the Thomsen surname. He spent several years in primary school but did not receive any other education. He worked for a long time on a dairy farm.


In 1921, when Martinus was about thirty, he had a spiritual awakening. He thereafter devoted his life to creating a cosmological science (d. cosmology) and wrote numerous books and articles. His main work is called Livets Bog (The Book of Life) in seven volumes. The complete work is entitled "The Third Testament".


Martinus's universal science is a view of life and existence. Universal science contains references to Jesus Christ but differs from traditional Christian faith. One of the characteristics of his work is the elaborate symbols or symbolic drawings that can be found in his books with detailed explanations of the meaning of each.


Martinus first came to Iceland in 1952 at the invitation of the Theosophical Society, and it was the first time he went outside of Denmark. He came to Iceland six times.
