 | Inconsistency of virtual initiations |
|
|
... what I think, but that is my opinion, is that a true initiatory organization should never refuse the initiation to those who prove to be spiritually suitable to receive it only because they cannot afford the enrolment and a monthly fee that is beyond their possibilities. Not all initiatory organizations are the same. Fortunately there are some, in my experience, which are within everyone’s reach, rich and poor.

| Castel del Monte, an energy-point |
|
|

| It is said that inner progress is a very hard discipline, an elitist path. This is true; otherwise Initiates would crowd roads, temples and markets. They don’t, therefore, to say it with a metaphor, the ascent of the initiatory mountain is not easy. |
