True faith cannot develop without intuition

True faith cannot develop in a person if he has no intuition. Faith without the guidance of intuition turns into superstition. The present conflict between religions and “faiths” is clear proof that people are led by self-hypnosis, not by intuition or by the spirit of their faith.

Beauty

The only real thing you can give to someone
is beauty.

The only thing you must reveal to others
is your beauty.
The only thing you must expect from others
is their beauty.

The only way to know each other
is the way of beauty.

The greatest labor, the holy labor,
is to lead people to beauty.

A disciple is a person who is awake as much as possible

A disciple is a person who is awake as much as possible. It is impossible to be awake in every situation and at every moment, but we must be awakened. Yes, you have three children to feed and a beautiful husband with whom you spend every night, having fun kissing and making jokes. In the meantime your daughters are being conditioned by subtle influences to become prostitutes, and you are not interested in that. Aren’t you interest to know what your children are being taught, what books they are reading, why that party is being organized, why your daughters are coming home pregnant or with venereal diseases?

There is something very mysterious in the thought that “they are going to die, and you are going to die”

When you think that one day your wife will die, your husband one day will die, your father and mother one day will die, you behave in a different way toward them. You respect them. You care for them. You value them because you see that you do not own them. They may go any moment from your hands.

You must think about your friends who are going to die, your teachers, your best students, those who served you, your daughters, your sons.

There is something very mysterious in the thought that “they are going to die, and you are going to die.” Do this so that you come to your senses. What the mystery is I do not know yet. You respect them more. You do not rely too heavily on them because you know that one day they will go.

Causes of shocks

Shocks are moments in our individual life when we awaken and come to our senses. These shocks can come from our Soul, from our Teacher, from our consciousness, from our enemies or friends, or from world events. They force us to have a new viewpoint, a new attitude, and a new change in our life.
 
Shocks come when we criticize or talk and do things against the natural laws. Sometime shocks warn us and give us time. Sometimes they destroy us altogether.
 
Shocks are of a physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual in nature.
 
The causes of shocks are many, such as:
 
1. Individual crystallization and delay of evolution
2. National karma and crystallization
3. Initiation of a Planetary or Solar Logos

4 .Cosmic disturbances, the tidal waves of which reach our shores.

6. Insanity is the result of continuous fear, threat of death, or insecurity.

The ancient Sanctuary

As a child I lived in a small town where many creative and influential people lived. There was an ancient Sanctuary. Every morning it was almost full. The dignitaries of the village went there, entered silently, lit a candle, and meditated or prayed for fifteen to twenty minutes. There was no crime in that village. The police were occupied all day with gardening and other domestic duties. The judge wrote novels.

It is not places of gambling and prostitution or nightclubs that can transform a nation, but Sanctuaries and Ashrams that are charged by the fire of the Higher Worlds. Once a man or a nation loses the thread of the Fiery World, the degeneration of the spirit takes place and insanity develops at the expense of the spirit.

How Insanity Can Be Cured

It is better to work for prevention than to try to cure it. Preventative methods are
 
1. Joyful home
2. Constructive, honest, and noble relationships
3. Security
4. Peace, love, and respect
5. Creative endeavors
6. Sacrificial service
7. Love toward all forms of life
8. Regular meditation, study, and creative service
9. Avoidance of those who are engaged with
    a. black magic
    b. sorcery
    c. necromancy
    d. mediumism
    e. lower psychism
    f. channeling
    g. drug users
    h. alcoholics
    i. insane persons
    j. slanderers, gossipers, traitors
 
These precautions are safeguards and may help you keep your sanity. These nine factors can be a shield in your life against the attacks of insanity.
 
 
How to Help Insane People
 
You can help them by
 
1. Putting them into professional institutions to heal them through music, colors, dance, and by putting them in “responsible” duties
2. Giving a chance to them to save animals or human beings
3. Giving them hard physical labor at least eight hours daily
4. Making them fast every week for twenty-four hours without even a drop of water
5. Making them abstain from sex
6. Teaching them rhythmic folk dances and movements
7. Awakening love in them toward trees, bushes, flowers, birds, and animals and giving then an opportunity to have gardens and small animals to care for
 

The human soul has always a chance to see what is going on. If we learn to contact the soul and help him, eventually he will help correct the insane situation in the personality.

The best way to unfold our chakras

We are told that every human being is equipped with chakras, also called centers, and they are not only sources of energies but also doors leading us to higher planes and to a higher consciousness.

There are seven major centers in our etheric body that directly affect our physical body through the ductless glands and nerves.

These centers can be in any of the following conditions:

-active and unfolded
-half active
-sleeping
-petrified

Knowing that the conditions of the centers have a direct effect on the human consciousness and body and behavior, people tried to use various methods to awaken them, stimulate them, and to benefited by their awakening. These people are as follows:

-Masters
-Dark forces or agents
-Ignorant Teachers
-Opportunists

1. The Masters, with Their knowledge and information, try to prepare some people for advanced initiations and work on the centers of the candidate to awaken the centers with the cooperation of the candidate. Their aim is to prepare advanced leaders to meet certain unexpected or evident needs of humanity. Masters work on higher centers. They work on the head center, the throat center, and the heart and ajna centers.

2. Dark agents try to stimulate and unfold the lower centers, such as the base of spine, sacral center, and solar plexus. Their intentions are
    a. To create excess force in their victims and lead them into destructive actions, crimes, etc.
    b. Generally, to overstimulate the sacral center and lead people into unhealthy relationships.
    c. To destroy a person who has the potential to be a leader for light

3. Ignorant Teachers gather people around them and make them do various kinds of meditation to stimulate their chakras. They do not have a sense of responsibility and do not care what happens to their students in the future. Generally they travel from place to place so as not to see the consequences of their labor.

People under such teachers are at a high risk for various diseases and complicated problems of psychological health.

4. Opportunists are those who make money in teaching about the chakras, of which they have only superficial knowledge.

The Teaching says that the centers must be left alone until the time they show signs of naturally unfolding under the influence of

1. Purity of life
2. Expansion of consciousness
3. Sacrificial service
4. Compassion
4. Right meditation

These are the safest methods that can be used to make our centers bloom and connect our mind to higher dimensions.


Some Don’ts:

1. It is absolutely forbidden to meditate on the chakras except under the supervision of your Teacher, who clairvoyantly sees the effect of your meditation in your bodies and life.

2. It is forbidden to exercise Hatha Yoga, since it stimulates the ganglias built by the centers and affects the centers. Hatha Yoga can be used only to cure certain etheric sickness, done under the supervision of a clairvoyant medical doctor.

3. Chakras can be stimulated by breathing exercises, and ignorant teachers allow their students to use various breathing exercises to stimulate various centers. Real Masters of the centers forbid such an action, warning us that it can have a drastic influence on our health.

4. Centers can be stimulated by certain drugs. Such an action is equal to suicide.


Some Do’s:

The Teaching says that the best way to unfold our centers is for all centers to unfold harmoniously and coordinate with each other through expansion of consciousness, purity of life, meditation, and sacrificial service.

Under the influence of the expansion of consciousness, centers open naturally and without causing any damage to either the etheric body or the physical body.

Any time you are advised to work on the centers, be very cautious. Do not risk your life.

If the personality is not clear of maya, glamor, and illusion, the increasing energy of the centers makes your maya, glamors, and illusions uncontrollable. You feel you have fallen in to the current of a flood – going toward destruction. The released energies multiply your habits, hang-ups, moral weaknesses, and a time comes when you lose control entirely. It is here that you can fall into the danger of obsession or the confusion emerging from your subconscious mind.

If one learns lots of things but does not give, his light will be taken away from him

We take, take, take and never give. It is stealing – and stealing is worse than taking. We must take and give. That is why if you only take in this life, in the next life you are going to be poor and starving because you broke the Law of Balance. If in this life you are living like a king and you do not care about other people, in the next life you are going to be a street-sweeper.

One must receive light in a certain measure and then give light. I have seen many people who learned and learned, and then kept silent. Suddenly their wisdom was taken away, and they became average people.

Gratitude is receiving and giving. If one learns lots of things but does not give, his light will be taken away from him. Light does not belong to us; every bit of wisdom that we have is given to us as a gift. If we do not use that gift, it is taken away. This is why a person can be so wise, but his wisdom can be taken away if he does not share it with gratitude.
