Esoteric Talks

Part of being the way we are is taking the most incredible things for granted. At birth we receive a great gift. One we rarely appreciate for what it is, but this is just the beginning of our journey towards what is possible for us.

We may think being indulgent is something good or not so good. Here's a different way of looking at it that may give you the opportunity to glean new meaning for your work.

The esoteric meaning of the three levels of truth as found in Biblical parables and stories.

The Fourth Way defines man in many different ways according to where they stand in relation to this Work. Good Householder, Tramp, Lunatic and Hasnamous are four classifications. There is a fifth, often overlooked but very important.

It's easy to see how offensive others can be. It can be difficult to understand how others could find us offensive. Being unpleasant doesn't take much effort. It's so easy we can do it in our sleep. This makes it difficult to observe.

Because there are levels of Being, there are three levels of truth spoken of in parables. Stone, water and wine represent these levels of truth.

Some might wish for the ability to be in two places at the same time, but it's only because they are unaware of their location in the most important place in the Universe. To those places we remain blind until we learn how to work on ourselves.

Gratitude, thankfulness, praise, valuation and appreciation all have a common root cause. They also share a common end in the consciousness of man. States of Being may be attained through proper effort.

The double meaning of parables. The literal, outer and the esoteric, inner meanings and where they fall on a man.

Just as it's not wise to judge a book by it's cover it's also unwise to judge the internal man by how the external man appears or behaves in our perception. It's up to us to adjust our own mismatch between our inner and outer selves.
