Magical divinity.


By K.N..Subramanyam.
The spiritual path is one of cycles of growth and destruction, of rebuilding followed again by disruption, until the magical work of the soul, the higher self, effects a transformation of the personality. Through a balanced practice of meditation, the study of spiritual texts, and service to humanity, a higher and more stable spiritual vibration can supersede these cycles of ebb and flow.   This magical power of the soul can be grasped and steadily manifested in our lives as an increasing power to serve through love-wisdom and skill in action. That will draw upon the timeless spiritual principles and techniques by which the soul works its magic

 
The differences between the western and eastern     mysteries are not huge.     

       They both involve practices to bring you into contact with the deepest (or highest) aspects of consciousness for the purposes of transformation and connection with divine knowledge

    
 The main difference between the eastern path and the western path is in the direction of the psychic current. While the eastern way encourages us to move our psychic energy ever further away from the earth plane until we eventually dissolve into nothingness.

The western school acknowledges this path and contains its own methods for accomplishing similar states of consciousness, internal awakening and connection with divine intelligence and wisdom. But the western path encourages us to direct our divine energy downward, into and through ourselves to transform the world around with healing and light. This is simply because of a difference in cultural temperament. Our western culture is always looking outward and forward, so we have developed interests in psychic phenomena, channeling, creative visualization, all active drawing of the mysterious inner worlds of the unconscious into the physical world. The western path of magick is all about drawing down the divine energy- divination (tarot, astrology, runes, geomancy, chyromancy, pyromancy, etc.) as well as healing, manifestation (wealth, success, love) protection, or negative uses like cursing. 

The great danger with eastern mysticism is the seductive escape from the trouble and tribulation of life into a peaceful world that is really just fantasy. It is only when we resolve our challenges that we can truly evolve. Magic offers a spiritual model for our continuing human evolution. 

 
The key phrase of the western mysteries is "Know Thyself." The whole purpose of the western secret doctrine is to lead you to a greater understanding of yourself. This understanding then translates into the ability to act consistently and congruently in accordance with your own true will. By understanding ourselves, we come to understand the purpose of our existence, and with that purpose clearly in mind, we can accomplish anything.  


As we begin to really know ourselves, we find that we are actually discovering the nature of the universe. The human spiritual body is a reflection of the spiritual body of universe. We are a microcosm of the universal macrocosm. This gives us tremendous personal responsibility. When we think a thought, it is projected into the macrocosm. So, if we continually think limiting, negative thoughts, our life experience is negative and limited. However, if we begin to think positive, enriching thoughts that contain unlimited possibilities, then the whole range of universal power opens up to us.

The path of magic causes miraculous changes in the world. As you awaken to your connection with the universe, you will begin to change the universe around you. It is a mutual transformation. This is the spiritual path of Magic.

Taming your Mind

By.K.N.Subramanyam The clouds that wander through the sky have no roots, no home, Nor do the distinctive thoughts floating through the mind. Once the self-mind is seen, Discrimination stops Beauty and ugliness, good and bad, happiness and suffering - all depend upon mind.  If you don’t try to stop whatever is going on in your mind, but merely observe it, eventually you’ll begin to feel a tremendous sense of relaxation, a vast sense of openness within your mind – which is in fact your natural mind, the naturally unperturbed background against which various thoughts come and go Let go of what has passed.Leo go gf what may come .Let go of what is happening now.

You are not naked when you take off your clothes. You still wear your religious assumptions, your prejudices, your fears, your illusions, your delusions. When you shed the cultural operating system, then essentially you stand naked before the inspection of your own psyche.
