It is within section six if you use the above link, or page 701 near the bottom, in volume II of "The Esoteric Tradition", but reading the 2nd and 3rd paragraph preceding it is helpful. Being the foc…
O yadyad rupam kamayate devata, tattad devatta bhavati
Rather not desire & sorrow for in it's place anything will suffice for it is the lack of spiritual connection
more profound than oneself. A daily practice reinforcing the ideals set forth in this relationship. It is
as if these people are empty vess…
I've just now signed up to this forum. I was aware of it for a few months and questioned my ability to be among polite company. Not that I'm coarse or low, I simply have to fight my tendency veer from topic. I mentioned elsewhere one time why our ac…
I believe that we must keep in mind that we are surrounded by billions of souls with different karma, beliefs, and levels of understanding. That is the plan the Creator has for us. We must be careful not to second guess what we see around us just be…
" I will try to pull them from the fire at my own risk "...
When I was 6 years old I liked to watch the fires on a wasteland a few blocks away from home.
I always got spank when I came home, since my mother had a very good nose, yet I never stopped…
You make a valid point but you seem to think that if 1000 people go on a downward spiral as you succeed to encourage one to follow a reciprocal path that the 'other side' has won. But things can't always be reckoned as simply as that. The world has…
What's the saddest thing isn't the fact that the above examples act like that, it's the horrible fact that uneducated (spiritually) witness thier behavior and emulate it. If one child plays with matches in a tub of gasoline and burns it's one thing,…
who said the earth isn't sacred?
My point was not to accurately point out the faults of the people mentioned, but to point out that lessons can be learned even in a "forum" as dubious as cable news. However desire will be the human condition and I can't imagine living without it, h…
Maurice,
I would like to make a couple of general observations about your topic.
Your examples may not be the "epitome of the human condition" as much as they may more likely be the 'epitome of the manipulative effort of the modern media to determin…
I'm an African American and interested in symbolic jewelry. I know that the svastika is a universal symbol of the cycles of life among other things and has been used by all cultures. However I can't wear a svastika medallion or I'll be seriously mis…
Hitler and the occultists that promoted him had it in their heads for quite a while that Aryans were supermen and they set out with a vengeance to prove it. They drew upon several sources and twisted them if they didn't fit their peculiar world-view…
Scientists and occultists alike are becoming aware of the Gaea theory which states that the planet Earth and all life in it are all one organism. It's a logical step to assume that earth is part of a larger system.
These seven states of being seem to superimpose themselves on the cycles of successive races of mankind and of nations as well as humans. I might even suggest that those seven states are the stages of the birth and end of a cosmic era.
I believe that regardless of the scientific level of a culture they need myth in their life, not necessarily to explain the material world but to explain the Inner World. If you study the creation myths of the world you'll quickly see that their goa…
