Magister Templi (8°=3□) Papers - 2

 Part 2 of my Grade of Magister Templi observations. Goodbye 'Ratio' The Golden Dawn tradition assigns the development of the Astral Body to the Adeptus Minor grade, but in my opinion this is fully achieved in the Magister Templi grade. Maybe, the terminology used is different among different schools, or I am mistaking my Initiation with a higher one. Also, it appears some authors attribute Astral body to basic emotions, while others describe something resembling Buddhic body. In any case, I have, for the first time in my life, found myself completely at odds with 'Reason' and 'Rationality'. My progress towards achieving my True Will could not proceed further unless I actively separated myself from the critique of appearances. Such level of alignment with the Cosmic Consciousness replaces all material, emotional, ethical (morality and justice), and social considerations of the individual will. Identifying and belonging to a Spiritual Stream, represented under di...

When In Doubt: Relax

-

Relaxation is the most important tool of the Aspirant in making progress on the Path. Face all the unconscious material that surface during relaxation, and do not change focus due to pain or anger. Let life flow within you, instead of outside you in a materialistic way. Don't count the hours or days. If you are in doubt, if you feel like you have lost the meaning, just relax. Let life provide the answers, motivations, situations and the new questions. Manifest your Spirit by relaxing. You will be amazed at the new Force this will bring to your Life, which will organize your Life, as well as protect it. Let submission be your rebellion. 

'The Lazy Mans Guide to Relaxation' (1983) by Israel Regardie is a good resource for studying relaxation techniques.

Theses

-
 I am now in a position to state some important Theses, thereby propose an update to our Ethics. Family and Education Love is a palliative cure. We need Love in our Society because of the many conditions that cannot be treated. It is not yet possible to bring humanity into harmony. There are also health conditions and conditions from birth, that can be prevented only in the next Aeon through the use of Mind techniques.  We place a lot of emphasis on the ideal Family which is a source of love and understanding for the family person. This is not a strong position due to two factors. Number one is that many people are not interested in loving their family members. They find themselves in a family system through confusion or coercion. They may not have the strength to accept that they are interested in family. This can lead to abusive and controlling family structures as a means to protect the integrity of the person who did not want family in the first place. The second problem i...

Ascent vs. Integration

-

In the practice of Spirituality, 99% of the focus is on the phenomenon of Ascent, whereby the individual learns to comprehend higher truths and develops a connection with his Spirit. The connection with Spirit makes the Aspirant strong, self-absorbed, somewhat reckless, and truly individual. On the other hand, such illumination does not persistently create satisfaction. The mundane life will eventually suffer if Integration or grounding practices are not introduced. Ascent in a Free Age An individual's connection with their Spirit is in fact very hard to conceal. Large social systems, like the medieval oppression by the Church, are required to effect it. Individuals should be filled with extreme fear, shame, and guilt, while intellectual freedom is suppressed. Only in such very restrained conditions, individuals will be effectively disconnected from their Spirit. In our age, in contrast, freedom, individuality, intellectual life are very much developed. As a result, through various...
