Thinking and Pondering
"Each time our “thinking and pondering” gives rise to compassionate thoughts or compassionate action, our inclination to be compassionate is strengthened, making it more likely that we’ll behave compassionately in the future. We’re, in effect, planting a behavioural seed that can grow into a habit. We are forming our character."
Our Guruji is devoted to the spread of occult truth and the development of the higher virtues of life.
The Constitution of the Cosmos: The knowledge of the constitution of the cosmos and of the manner in which the cosmos originates and dissolves is pertinent to one's spiritual maturation.
The Universe and the Human Kingdom:Man is not the mere material physical being of which the outer senses inform us, and which the scientific intellect describes and explains but he is a complicated being made up of physical body, etheric body, astral body, and ego. The universe is a cosmic brain or the human brain is a miniature universe.
Purification:This is the process of awakening the purest qualities within us. Everyone possesses the ability to envisage a transcendent future. It is not the preserve of a chosen few. One just needs to put aside all preconceived notions and seek true learning. When we awaken the unblemished qualities within us, we participate in the creation of a noble civilization.
Involution and Evolution and the Divine Plan:The cosmic cycle of the Universe is involution and evolution. The original consciousness individuates and diversifies. Then in the other phase, these various individuated and diverse consciousness’ start to return back to their original unity, and in this evolutionary process individuated minds become unified with others, as everyone gradually approaches Unity once again.
Occult Hierarchy: The manifested universe is rooted in and eternal, boundless, immutable principle called the 'Absolute'. Consciousness and Power or Spirit and Matter are not two independent realities but two polar aspects of the absolute.
Illumination: When the inner transformation takes over our lives, we start to seek fulfilment through the development of our spiritual self. This is possible through meditation, contemplation and the leading of a spiritual life. Our continued exploration of the invisible world and the non-physical aspects of our being leads us to consciously progress to higher states of Illumination and to experience higher and higher illumination. Our first illumination will have the greatest overall effect on our lives as it will give us a very brief but glorious experience of our soul when we are able to transcend the limitation of our mind. It gives us bliss beyond expression and in a 'flash' we perceive the true nature of higher reality. This experience of illumination can last for a few minutes. At the end of the experience we return to a normal mundane level of awareness but we return having a new understanding of ourselves and the world.
The Universal Laws of Rebirth: Causes and Effects: Each individual creates their own physical manifestation of the law of balance and harmony by experiencing results, honing their ability to learn or their disregard for experiencing. We create our own capacities and limitations.
On the Path to Perfection: Causes and Effects: The process of inner transformation will create an inward longing for a higher level of more spiritual light and truth, so much so, that it will influence even the way we lead our external lives. Wisdom, once gained (often called Brahmavidya and Guptavidya or the Secret Science) is fortunately, always available to us as is the deeper wisdom that brings us to the gateway of self-illumination. This is when we are ready to receive a true Master into our lives."When the pupil is ready the Master knocks on his door".
Inner Transformation: Inner transformation happens only when we imbibe noble and pure qualities. Transformation reflects the power of love and energy. It happens in people who are inspired to help humanity achieve a high degree of consciousness, transcending the influence of the egoistic mind. Inner transformation is superhuman evolution. Evolution is an inevitable, universal phenomenon. It is a law that governs all life. The purpose of evolution is to keep moving forward towards awakened consciousness and awareness, realizing the true potential of the form at every stage. This awakened consciousness is beyond the instrumentation of the brain and one's intellect. Transformation is the radical inner change wherein one experiences a sublime state of wisdom. A transformed individual helps expedite the process of evolution at the lower levels of humanity. He or she influences the spiritual, political, economic, religious, social and scientific thinking of people around. We must not strive to control the forces of nature, but rather aim to control our baser human instincts. When this is achieved, we feel oneness with all forms of life and understand the inner being (the higher self).
