Enlightenment happens as soon as you know for certain that you are immortal. Initiation happens when you consciously develop the three higher aspects of your soul and spirit. You must prepare your heart for these guests like an alchemical wedding of soul to spirit welcomes the bride and groom. We should build a bridge to cross the threshold between the physical and spiritual worlds to attend this sacred wedding. We must greet every guest with unconditional hospitality, for we never know who it is that knocks upon our door as a wandering pilgrim.
meditation
Destiny is not merely personal. It is humanity’s collective biography, and each soul’s thoughts and deeds contribute to it. After death, what we have as thoughts, feelings, and actions flows into the reservoir of cosmic intelligence through Christ, the Lord of Karma, shaping our current relationships and the cultural life of ages to come.
An aspirant seeking initiation into the mystery wisdom of the ancients attempts to cross the Threshold consciously through transcendent meditation, spiritual practices, and initiation. Initiation is not for the weak-hearted, scared, or lazy person.
The preparations for initiation can be extremely demanding and complicated, and in the end, the aspirant may faint at the Threshold and not be able to resolve the sins the Guardian displays before the quaking consciousness of the aspirant.
Many try and fail.
Sometimes, the aspirant may “loose their mind” in the process of attempting to cross the Threshold before they are ready. And, even if the aspirant makes it across the Threshold it doesn’t mean they have the moral strength to remember what they experienced in the spiritual world while they were there.
Only the selfless desire to gain wisdom for the sake of all other being’s welfare will keep the aspirant conscious in the spiritual world and help the aspirant remember the communion he had with the beings in that world.
