....not dead leaves anymore, but lotus of flames ...
Dear Friend,
to your (assumed) ignorance I can add mine; nevertheless I’ll
advance some propositions which I think undisputable.
It is typical of the postulant not to know. It is typical of the profane to
talk nonsense. Therefore, if an “aspirant” talks mixing up words,
propositions and meanings, it is not an aspirant talking, but only someone who
“whispers in the wind”. Here the distinction between “aspirant”
and one who “whispers in the wind” is obvious and unmistakable.
The soul is the true Disciple, whilst the inferior self will always
be the eternal aspirant. If he wants to reach the goal, that is the
soul, he must reorganize each time his own research, becoming
more conscious and responsible about what he needs to “do and have”
in order to reach it (the Initiation).
What I mean is that I don’t believe in the “miracle” of those
who think of serving their own soul (which is the occult Master of the impermanent
self), ignoring every bit of Teaching or mixing up the “Love of Flame”
(1st ray) with mother’s love.
Unfortunately mass esotericism is of a generic kind, which is not keen on scientific
uprightness. Nevertheless the word is quite clear: initiatory science,
not opinions or meaningless debates. When esotericism is only a pastime it’s
not a matter of ignorance, of “not knowing” and deserving help,
but only of presumptuousness and arrogance.
If someone expects to face the initiatory path through emptiness of ideas and
a shallow attitude it means that he is either malicious, and I don’t think
so, or he’s still wrapped up in the shadow of illusion, where he’ll
stay for God knows how long.
It would be better to look and listen to oneself whilst “doing
and saying”, searching one’s heart, before trying to understand
something more consistent than the emotional-astral “impressions”.
