| The symbol of the mirror |
|
|
| «The Essence is only revealed in the form of the predisposition of the individual that receives such revelation and nothing different ever happens. Therefore the subject that receives the essential revelation will only see his own ‘form’ in the mirror of God; he won’t see God, it is impossible for him to see Him, although he knows that he can’t see his ‘form’ other than through the divine mirror. This is completely similar to what happens in a material mirror: if you contemplate forms, you don’t see the mirror but you know that you can see the forms or your own form only thanks to the mirror. Therefore God is the mirror where you can see yourself, likewise you are His mirror where He contemplates His Names. Well, they are nothing but Himself.» - Ibn al ‘Arabî

|
| When, among initiates, there is an exchange of fixed, and therefore unchangeable, principles, there cannot be a dispute, but only edification of ideas, where each initiate brings his own stone, sensitive and perceptive, angled by his own intellectual abilities. This building is the Temple , symbol of the search for knowledge and truth, which is the philosophical Abode of every initiate. |

| Sense of the soul and initiatory impersonality |
|
|
Initiatory research doesn’t respond to personal needs, but to much deeper drives. Whoever starts the journey in search of the ‘golden fleece’ is not only an Argonaut, but an instrument of the deep conscience (soul). A researcher of ‘light’ cannot help receiving and giving ‘love’.
