'''Martinus Thomsen''' ([[1890]] - [[1981]]) was a [[Denmark|Danish]] [[dairy]] worker who at the age of 31 went through a strong mental light experience, in the form of a revelation, but which - according to him - stood under his stir consciousness and intellectual control. This experience involved a permanent change of Martinus' awareness, in the form of a powerful increase in his ability to love, his intelligence and intuition.

Martinus announced that he had gained access to knowledge that was cosmic, in the sense of limitless. Hence, his followers describe his teachings as [[cosmology]]. During the rest of his life Martinus worked actively as a writer, symbol drawer and speaker. When he died at 90 years of age, he left a work known as ''The Third Testament''. This consists of around 40 books, including the main work [[Livets bog]] (''The Book of Life'') in 7 volumes and approximately 3000 pages; some of it translated and published in English. As the name ''Third Testament'' suggests, Martinus believes that his books are a continuation of the [[Bible]], meant for humane people with a scientific outlook, who sympathize with [[Jesus]]' message of love but cannot be inspired by religion or dogmas.
