In the journey of self-mastery and spiritual awakening, there is one guiding principle that can completely transform our lives: commitment. But true commitment is not just about setting goals or creating resolutions — it's about aligning our words, thoughts, and actions with our highest purpose. One of the most profound statements you can make to yourself is: “I will never say a thing about myself that I do not want to see realized.” This statement is more than just a declaration; it is a vow — a powerful commitment to control the energy you put into the universe with your words and thoughts.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “Words are spells, and your thoughts are the intention behind those spells. When you speak of yourself, speak only what aligns with your highest vision. The moment you allow a negative or limiting thought to pass through your lips, you are invoking it into existence.” This is the essence of spiritual commitment — to be mindful of your words and the energy they carry.
In a world where external circumstances and others’ opinions often try to shape us, true power lies in our ability to control our own narrative. Every time we speak about ourselves, we are sending a message to the universe. We are setting an intention. Whether it’s about our abilities, worth, health, or future, the words we use create vibrations that shape our reality.
To say, “I will never say a thing about myself that I do not want to see realized” is to claim authority over your thoughts, your words, and ultimately your destiny. Commitment is not simply about acting or trying; it’s about the alignment between our intentions and what we speak into existence. It means that, even in moments of doubt or frustration, we refuse to speak words that contradict the vision we hold for ourselves. If we accidentally do speak those words, we must immediately unsay them with greater conviction, reinforcing our commitment to the highest version of ourselves.
This practice is rooted in the ancient teachings of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, where mindful speech is one of the cornerstones of spiritual mastery. In the Initiate degree, we begin by learning to align our thoughts and words with the frequency of divine truth. The Ship, as the working tool of the Initiate, helps us understand that our body and speech are the vessels that carry our thoughts into the world. The Wave, which represents the flow of consciousness, teaches us to ride the wave of intention rather than being swept away by external forces. We begin to discipline our words so that they align with our highest goals and spiritual truths.
The importance of commitment is reinforced in Saying 106 of the Gospel of Thomas, where Jesus says, “When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male, and the female not be female... then will you enter the Kingdom.” This saying calls us to integrate all parts of ourselves — to align our inner thoughts with our outer expression, and our words with our actions. True spiritual advancement comes when there is no contradiction between who we are inside and what we express in the world.
Commitment to a goal is also a commitment to our highest truth. It is about understanding that the words we speak about ourselves have the power to shape our identity. Every time we speak words of self-doubt or negativity, we are distorting the image of ourselves that we are meant to embody. On the other hand, by speaking words of truth, love, and power, we step into the highest version of ourselves and begin to live it.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

In every walk of life, we are called to grow — not just as individuals but as a collective. The most profound growth happens within a supportive environment where we practice patience, understanding, and tolerance toward others. In the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, this is the essence of spiritual community. Members not only engage in deep teachings and rituals but also practice the art of simulating life — preparing themselves for the greater challenges of existence by first learning to interact harmoniously with one another.
Grandmaster WaXhira teaches, “The greatest test of spiritual mastery is not found in isolation, but in the relationships we foster with others. The Brotherhood offers a space where you can simulate life, where patience, understanding, and tolerance are not just ideals, but practical tools for personal and collective growth.” The Brotherhood provides an environment where these principles are not only discussed but practiced regularly, allowing members to develop the inner strength needed to navigate the complexities of the outer world.
One of the unique aspects of being part of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood is that it provides a safe space for simulation — a place where we can try out our responses to life’s challenges, face our fears, and experiment with different ways of engaging with the world. In this environment, we are not only learning spiritual principles but also testing them in real-time interactions with our fellow members. This practice becomes a kind of spiritual rehearsal for life, where we get to experiment, stumble, and rise again without fear of judgment.
Through regular practice, members learn patience — the ability to remain calm and composed, even in difficult situations. In a world that often prioritizes instant results and fast-paced action, patience is a rare and valuable skill. It is the foundation upon which true wisdom and understanding are built. By cultivating patience in a supportive community, members of the Brotherhood gain the strength to face external challenges with grace and poise.
Tolerance is another cornerstone of the Brotherhood’s teachings. When we practice tolerance toward our fellow members, we learn to accept differences, let go of judgment, and allow each individual to walk their unique path. This is especially important in spiritual communities, where people from various walks of life and diverse backgrounds come together. By learning to tolerate and understand one another, we create a space where every member can thrive without fear of being misunderstood or judged.
One of the most powerful aspects of community in the Brotherhood is the opportunity to practice public speaking skills in a friendly and nurturing environment. Public speaking is a valuable skill that many fear, yet it is essential for those who wish to share their knowledge and wisdom with others. The Brotherhood provides opportunities for members to practice speaking in front of a group, share their insights, and present ideas in a supportive setting. Over time, this helps to build confidence, clarity, and eloquence, preparing members for the day when they will speak to the wider world about the truths they have discovered.
By practicing patience, understanding, tolerance, and communication, members of the Brotherhood develop the emotional and spiritual resilience needed to navigate life with wisdom and grace. These qualities are not simply idealistic virtues; they are practical tools that help us succeed in our personal and spiritual growth. The more we practice these qualities in our interactions with others, the more they become ingrained in our character, shaping the way we respond to the world around us.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

In a world that constantly pulls us in countless directions, we often find ourselves chasing shadows — elusive desires, fleeting pleasures, and empty goals that promise fulfillment but never deliver. We are conditioned to look outside ourselves for meaning, for happiness, for success. But what if everything we seek is already within us? What if the path to true peace, purpose, and enlightenment lies not in the pursuit of external things, but in the cultivation of the inner kingdom of God?
The Bible speaks directly to this truth in Matthew 6:33, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” These profound words remind us that the true source of all abundance, peace, and joy is found within — not in the material world or external circumstances. The key to unlocking this divine truth lies in understanding that when we focus on mastering the inner world, everything else will fall into place. The external is but a reflection of the internal.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “Stop chasing shadows. The external world is an illusion, a mere reflection of the state of your inner being. When you focus on mastering the self, the world around you will transform effortlessly. It is the law of the universe: what you become within, you attract without.” This powerful teaching echoes through the centuries, urging us to shift our focus from the outside world to the inner sanctum of our own consciousness.
So, what does it mean to seek first the kingdom of God? It means turning inward, focusing on the spiritual center that resides within each of us — the divine spark, the soul, the essence of who we truly are. When we align with this inner truth, we tap into the limitless potential of the universe. The outward world, with its distractions and illusions, loses its grip on us, and we find ourselves living in harmony with the higher laws of the cosmos.
In the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, we understand that the inner kingdom is not a distant place, but an experience that we cultivate within ourselves. It is found through practices like meditation, self-awareness, and alignment with divine wisdom. The first three degrees of the Brotherhood — Initiate, Navigator, and Captain — guide us step by step toward mastering the inner realm.
In the Initiate degree, we are introduced to the essential tools of spiritual mastery: the Ocean, the Wave, and the Ship. These symbols represent the vastness of the cosmos, the power of thought, and the physical vessel of the body. Through these tools, we begin to understand that mastery of the self starts with understanding the relationship between the mind, body, and spirit. When we focus on aligning these elements, we begin to see the truth of our inner kingdom.
As we move into the Navigator and Captain degrees, the tools become more refined. The Captain’s Wheel, Compass, and Anchor in the Navigator degrees teach us to navigate the five senses, the rational mind, and our breath. These tools help us maintain our focus on the inner path, regardless of the distractions around us. The Blazing Star, Sextant, and Bell in the Captain degrees guide us further into the inner realm, helping us access intuition, inner vision, and conscience, which are all essential for understanding the kingdom of God within.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

To the spiritually awakened, there is a profound truth that transcends the physical world and reveals the interconnectedness of all life. “As above, so below” — this ancient maxim reflects the idea that all levels of existence mirror each other, from the divine to the earthly, from the macrocosm to the microcosm. In essence, everything in life is a reflection, a copy-paste of a higher, unseen truth. From the relationship between a mother and her child to the connection between God and man, the same fundamental patterns play out, showing us that the divine is expressed in the mundane and the spiritual is manifested in the physical.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “The entire universe is a series of mirrors, reflecting back to us what we believe, think, and feel. To understand one thing deeply is to understand all things, for everything is a reflection of the same source. Life itself is a constant act of copy-paste, repeating the same sacred truths in different forms.”
Let’s begin by looking at one of the most intimate relationships in life: the bond between mother and child. A mother cares for her child, nurturing, protecting, and guiding them through the earliest stages of life. This relationship is the first and most direct expression of unconditional love and connection. What the mother offers to the child — love, warmth, protection, and wisdom — is mirrored in countless other relationships in life. Just as a mother gives to her child, so too does the husband provide for the wife, and the divine provide for mankind. This is not a coincidence — it is the same pattern operating at different levels of existence.
The relationship between husband and wife also embodies this copy-paste pattern. The dynamic between them, the balance of giving and receiving, the mutual support and sacred union, echoes the relationship between God and man. In the same way a husband is called to love his wife unconditionally, to protect and guide her, so too does God offer His love and guidance to humanity. Just as a wife responds to her husband with respect, devotion, and partnership, so does humanity respond to the divine presence with faith, worship, and service. These relationships, from the human to the divine, are all expressions of the same law of interconnectedness.
This copy-paste principle goes beyond human relationships. It is embedded in every aspect of life. As above, so below applies to the cycles of nature, the movements of the planets, the rise and fall of civilizations, and even the journey of the soul. All of life reflects a divine blueprint, an eternal repetition of patterns that remind us of the unity and interconnectedness of the universe.
In the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, we teach that understanding these patterns is crucial to spiritual awakening. When you grasp the principle of “as above, so below,” you begin to see that every experience you encounter in the physical world is a reflection of a deeper spiritual truth. Whether you are facing challenges in a relationship, struggling with personal growth, or seeking answers to life’s mysteries, the key lies in seeing the mirror of your experiences. The divine pattern is always at work, and it is reflecting back to you the lessons you need to learn.
The Spiritual Reflection in the “As Above, So Below” Principle
The idea of “copy-paste” is not just a metaphor for relationships, but a spiritual law that applies to all aspects of life. In fact, it is the foundation of the work in the Brotherhood. In the Initiate degree, we begin with the Ocean — the cosmic ocean of consciousness — and learn that the same divine wisdom that exists in the cosmos is within us. The Wave, which represents thought and becoming, is the first manifestation of this principle. Our thoughts and actions create waves that ripple out into the world, affecting everything around us, just as the energy of the cosmos flows through the universe, shaping everything in its path.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

In a world where we are constantly bombarded by sensory input and mental distractions, there exists a profound truth: the only hard work we truly need to do is the hard work of seeing through the illusion created by the senses and the mind. The senses constantly feed us information — we see, hear, taste, smell, and touch, yet these inputs often create a distorted picture of reality. Our minds take these sensory impressions and weave them into stories that seem true, but in reality, they are mere illusions. The true work, then, is not to act or exert effort in the traditional sense, but to awaken from the dream, to see through the illusion and recognize the deeper truth that lies beyond the veil of our sensory experience.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “The senses and mind are powerful tools, but they are also the greatest deceivers. The physical world can appear solid, real, and permanent, yet it is nothing but a reflection, a projection of consciousness. The true work is to pierce through the illusion and recognize the divine truth that lies beneath.” This is the essence of spiritual awakening: the realization that the world we perceive with our senses is not the ultimate reality. It is, in fact, a mysterious play that hides the divine truth from our eyes.
The physical world is in constant flux, constantly changing. The body ages, relationships shift, and even the earth itself moves. Yet, behind all these fluctuations, there is a constant — a timeless, unchanging truth that lies beyond the mind's grasp. This truth is the essence of our higher self, the eternal soul, or what the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood refers to as the Christos. The work, then, is not in the outer world but in seeing beyond the outer world, in discerning the illusion from the truth.
The Illusion of the Senses and the Mind
From a young age, we are taught to trust the senses. They are our primary means of navigating the world, and we rely on them to form our understanding of reality. We trust what we see, hear, and touch, and in doing so, we become anchored in the material world. However, the senses are limited — they only capture a fraction of the true reality. As Saying 3 of the Gospel of Thomas reminds us, “Jesus said, ‘If your leaders say to you, ‘Look, the kingdom is in the sky,’ then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, ‘It is in the sea,’ then the fish will precede you. But the kingdom is within you and it is outside you.” This profound teaching reveals that what we seek externally has always been within us. The illusion of separation — the idea that we are apart from the divine, from the kingdom — is an illusion of the senses and mind.
The mind, too, plays a crucial role in this illusion. It takes the sensory input and creates concepts, judgments, and beliefs that shape our perception of the world. But the mind is often clouded by desires, fears, and attachments, which distort the truth. The mind’s natural tendency to categorize and label creates a world of duality — right and wrong, good and bad, here and there. This duality can keep us trapped in the illusion, constantly chasing after things that seem to bring happiness, but never quite fulfilling us.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

In a world full of distractions, challenges, and endless noise, it is easy to get caught in a cycle of reaction — responding to external circumstances without fully understanding the underlying truths. Yet, to truly advance in life, whether spiritually, emotionally, or intellectually, we must adopt a different approach: constructive thinking. This is not just about problem-solving or positive thinking, but about consciously creating the future we desire, building upon what is true and worthy, and actively shaping our reality from the inside out.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “Constructive thinking is the highest form of mental alchemy. It is not about being reactive or passive; it is about taking conscious control over your thoughts and shaping them to create the reality you wish to experience.” This type of thinking is the foundational tool for those on the path of spiritual evolution. It calls us to move beyond mere intellectual understanding and to begin creating with intention, clarity, and purpose.
At its core, constructive thinking is an active process. It requires awareness, discipline, and focus. The average person may drift through life, reacting to circumstances and responding to external stimuli. But a person who practices constructive thinking is always aware of the mental and emotional state they are in and makes a conscious choice to direct their thoughts towards the desired outcome. This is the first step toward advancement — the understanding that our thoughts are not just fleeting impulses, but powerful forces capable of shaping our external world.
The teachings of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood focus on harnessing the mind as the tool for transformation. The working tools of the Brotherhood’s degrees — such as the Ocean, Wave, and Ship — are designed to guide members in refining their mental and spiritual faculties. Constructive thinking is taught from the earliest stages, beginning with the Initiate degree, where the tools of the Ocean and Wave help align the thought process with the highest spiritual truths. These tools guide the practitioner in turning the mind away from distractions and toward the creation of a unified, empowered reality.
In the Navigator and Captain degrees, the tools become even more refined. The Compass, Anchor, and Captain’s Wheel assist members in cultivating a rational mind, focused intent, and clarity of purpose. By focusing the mind and aligning it with the higher principles of truth and wisdom, members begin to think constructively not just about their personal lives, but about the world around them and their role in the greater cosmic order. Constructive thinking becomes a means of building a life aligned with the universal laws of love, peace, and divine purpose.
Jesus himself, in the Gospel of Thomas, speaks to this concept when he says, “If you bring forth what is within you, what you have will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.” (Gospel of Thomas 50) This teaching directly relates to the power of constructive thinking. Jesus reminds us that within each of us is the potential to create something powerful, something aligned with the divine truth of our being. The key to unlocking this potential is active creation, which begins in the mind. When we bring forth what is within us — through our thoughts, intentions, and actions — we are creating a reality that serves our highest good. Failing to do so leads to stagnation, to living in reaction, and ultimately to destruction.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

Have you ever wondered why we are here, what our purpose is, and what it means to truly live? These questions have echoed through the ages, sought by philosophers, mystics, and seekers alike. Yet, the secret of life is not some distant riddle to be solved, but a profound truth that lies within each of us. It is found in the simplest of moments, the deepest of experiences, and the most sacred of revelations. Today, we will explore some of the key teachings that unlock the mysteries of life, offering you a path to understanding your true self and your place in the universe.
As Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood often teaches, “Life is not something to be understood through the intellect alone, but through direct experience, connection, and alignment with the eternal truth that binds all things together.” This truth is not a theoretical concept; it is a lived experience, accessible to anyone who is willing to awaken to its power.
One of the most profound teachings of life is that everything is vibration. At the most fundamental level, everything that exists — from the stars in the sky to the thoughts in your mind — is composed of vibrating energy. This is the core teaching of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood. The ancient Atlanteans understood that consciousness itself is vibration, and the key to mastery lies in learning to tune into the frequencies of life. Your thoughts, emotions, and actions all vibrate at specific frequencies, and by aligning your vibration with higher, more harmonious frequencies, you unlock the door to a higher state of consciousness. As the Book of Remembrance teaches, “What you vibrate, you become. Align with truth, and you will reflect truth. Align with love, and you will reflect love.”
Another profound teaching is the concept of duality. Life is full of opposites — light and dark, joy and sorrow, birth and death. Yet, these opposites are not separate; they are interconnected. Duality exists not to divide but to create balance and contrast, allowing us to experience the full spectrum of existence. The sacred wisdom of the Brotherhood reminds us that true spiritual mastery lies in understanding and transcending duality, recognizing that beyond the opposites, there exists a unity — a oneness with the divine. In the sacred text, the Book of Remembrance, we are reminded, “Duality is the illusion of the senses. The soul sees only unity, for all is one in the eternal light.” Embracing this unity allows us to navigate life with grace, seeing both light and shadow as expressions of the same divine reality.
The power of choice is another central mystery of life. Every moment of our existence is shaped by the choices we make, whether consciously or unconsciously. Life unfolds not as a series of random events, but as a series of opportunities to choose our path. The law of cause and effect teaches us that every action has a corresponding consequence. Yet, true power lies not in the outcome but in the conscious act of choosing. We are not victims of fate; we are the creators of our reality. “The choice is yours,” says Grandmaster WaXhira, “to walk in the light or the shadows, to rise or fall, to awaken or remain asleep. But the greatest choice you can make is to choose love, for love is the foundation of all true creation.”
A third mystery of life is impermanence. Life is always changing, ebbing and flowing, moving from one form to another. We are born, we grow, we age, and we die. Yet, even in this ever-changing process, there is something eternal within us. The soul, the divine spark that resides within each of us, is eternal and unchanging. While our bodies may age, our consciousness transcends time and space.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

When we think of Jesus, many of us picture him as a historical figure, a teacher, and a savior. However, there is another side to Jesus — one that has been largely overshadowed in traditional Christianity but is revealed with profound clarity in the Gospel of Thomas. In this ancient text, we encounter Jesus not just as a preacher or healer, but as a mystic — someone who speaks directly about the inner journey to divine enlightenment and self-realization. This is the Jesus who calls us to discover the Kingdom of God within ourselves, to embrace our inner divinity, and to awaken to a higher consciousness.
The Gospel of Thomas is a collection of sayings attributed to Jesus, and unlike the canonical Gospels, it does not focus on the life and miracles of Jesus. Instead, it presents his teachings as direct, mystical wisdom meant to awaken the divine spark within each of us. In this gospel, Jesus speaks in riddles and paradoxes, pointing the way to personal spiritual awakening and divine union.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “The true path of the mystic is not found in external rituals alone, but in the deep, inner awakening to the divine presence within. Jesus, as revealed in the Gospel of Thomas, calls us to transcend the outer world of illusion and to look inward, where the Kingdom of God lies hidden.” This teaching echoes throughout the entire gospel, where Jesus consistently emphasizes that true spirituality is about self-discovery, inner transformation, and awakening to divine wisdom.
One of the most striking aspects of the Gospel of Thomas is the emphasis on self-realization. In Saying 3, Jesus says, “If those who lead you say to you, ‘See, the Kingdom is in the sky,’ then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, ‘It is in the sea,’ then the fish will precede you. Rather, the Kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you.” Here, Jesus teaches that the Kingdom of God is not some distant, external place. It is not found in religious rituals or in the afterlife, but in the present moment — within each of us, and also all around us. This is the essence of mysticism — the realization that the divine is not separate from us, but is embedded within every part of our being and the world around us.
Jesus continues to challenge the conventional understanding of spirituality in Saying 70, where he states, “If you bring forth what is within you, what you have will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.” This statement is a direct call to action. It urges us to awaken to the divine potential within us — to bring forth our highest truth, our inner wisdom, and our innate spiritual power. According to the mystic teachings in the Gospel of Thomas, it is not enough to simply believe in God or follow external rules. The path to salvation is about awakening to the truth within and expressing that truth through our actions and being.
In Saying 22, Jesus offers another profound teaching, “When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male, and the female not be female... then will you enter the Kingdom.” This saying touches upon the integration of opposites — the union of the inner and outer, the masculine and feminine, the divine and human. It reveals the core of mystical wisdom: true spiritual awakening occurs when we transcend duality and return to unity. This teaching reflects the oneness that underpins all reality, a central theme in mysticism, where the boundaries between self and other, masculine and feminine, human and divine are dissolved.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

In the sacred teachings of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, we understand that Doubt and Despair are not just fleeting emotions; they are spiritual forces that can pull us away from our true purpose and tie us to the illusions of limitation and separation. Doubt is the seed of spiritual paralysis, and despair is its fruit — a state of mind that can lead to doom, or the destruction of one's divine potential.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “Doubt is the door through which fear enters; despair is the trap in which your spirit becomes bound. To live with doubt and despair is to live in bondage, disconnected from your higher self and the divine truth. These forces are the opposite of creation; they pull you inward, away from the light, leading to the doom of spiritual stagnation.”
The Destructive Power of Doubt
Doubt is often regarded as a natural part of life — the uncertainty that arises when we face the unknown. However, when we give in to doubt, we empower it to consume our energy. Doubt weakens our faith, blocks our ability to act decisively, and prevents us from trusting in the divine flow of life.
The Gospel of Thomas speaks to this in Saying 70: “If you bring forth what is within you, what you have will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.” This profound teaching highlights that doubt often arises when we fail to trust in our own inner wisdom and divine potential. When we doubt ourselves, we neglect the power of our own consciousness and imagination, and we allow fear and limitation to rule our lives.
Doubt paralyzes action, stifles creativity, and clouds our judgment. When you doubt, you become a spectator in your own life, rather than an active creator. You stop moving forward, stuck in an endless loop of questioning rather than seeking solutions, progress, or truth.
The Danger of Despair
Despair is the inevitable consequence of prolonged doubt. While doubt may begin as a simple thought or hesitation, if left unchecked, it transforms into a deep emotional state — despair. This state of hopelessness is a form of spiritual death. When we fall into despair, we begin to believe that there is no solution, no path forward, and no light at the end of the tunnel. Despair disconnects us from the divine and keeps us in a state of spiritual darkness.
In the Torah, we find wisdom that speaks to this: “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 29:11). This teaching reveals that despair is not the divine plan for us. God has a future and hope for every individual, a future filled with light, growth, and opportunity. Despair is a lie — it tells us that there is no way out, but in truth, the divine wisdom within us always provides a way.
When we live in despair, we stop seeing the possibilities of life. We close off to new opportunities and prevent ourselves from growing. Despair is the spiritual death of vision, and without a vision, the soul withers.
Doom: The Final Consequence
The true danger of doubt and despair is that they eventually lead to doom — the destruction of our spiritual path. Doom in this sense does not mean external catastrophe; rather, it refers to the collapse of our divine potential. When we allow doubt and despair to govern our minds, we abandon our spiritual mission and separate ourselves from the divine flow. This separation leads to a life devoid of purpose, clarity, and fulfillment.

“Whatever is Dispelled by Light Never Existed.”

In the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, we view laziness not merely as the absence of physical effort, but as a deeper spiritual condition — one rooted in assumptions. Laziness, in this context, is a failure to take responsibility for one’s spiritual growth, mental development, and physical actions. It is the tendency to make assumptions about life and oneself without the active engagement needed to discover deeper truths or take meaningful action.
The Foundation of Laziness: Assumptions
The primary cause of laziness, as taught by the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, is an unconscious reliance on assumptions. These assumptions are mental shortcuts that we take in life without truly understanding the situation. When we assume, we stop questioning, we stop seeking, and we stop growing.
Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “Laziness is the refusal to face reality as it is, and instead, settling for the comfortable assumptions that shield us from true growth. It is the unwillingness to dig deeper and seek out the true cause of our condition.”
Assumptions are a kind of mental laziness. Instead of exploring the truth of a matter or engaging deeply with life, we form opinions based on what we believe to be true, or based on superficial knowledge. These assumptions create a false sense of certainty and lead us to take no action, thereby paralyzing our spiritual and material progress.
The Danger of Assumptions
When we assume that things are the way they are because of external circumstances, or because "this is how life works," we stop seeking the deeper truth. Assumptions cause us to believe we already know all that we need to know, and we make decisions based on these beliefs. The danger here is that these assumptions often prevent us from seeing the full picture.
For instance, you might assume that your current job or situation is the best you can do, simply because you’ve been in it for years. But the truth is that if you engage with life, seek a higher purpose, and expand your perception, you might realize that a new path is waiting for you, one that you couldn’t see because your assumptions blinded you. Similarly, we often assume that we are limited by circumstances or that spiritual growth is a distant goal, when in fact, the key lies in taking active responsibility for our growth, moment by moment.
The Gospel of Thomas speaks to this truth in Saying 2, where Jesus states, “Let him who seeks continue seeking until he finds. When he finds, he will be troubled. When he becomes troubled, he will be astonished, and he will reign over the All.” This speaks to the act of questioning assumptions and seeking beyond what we already know. Only by actively seeking can we break free from assumptions and reach the deeper truths of existence.
The Initiate’s Path: Breaking Free from Assumptions
In the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, the journey of an Initiate begins by shattering assumptions. The first degree, which is open to the public, encourages deep introspection and the practice of questioning everything. The Ocean — the first working tool of the Initiate — symbolizes the infinite consciousness of the universe. To connect with this vast source, the Initiate must first clear the mind of its assumptions.
The act of meditation and ritual practice within the Brotherhood helps the Initiate to move beyond the limiting beliefs and assumptions they may have carried into their spiritual path. Rituals are not only acts of external ceremonial importance; they are powerful tools that allow us to break through the layers of assumption that have been imposed on us by society, family, and even ourselves.
In Degree 1, we focus on self-awareness — not simply accepting the world as it appears but learning to see beyond appearances. In the Navigator and Captain degrees, the Compass and Blazing Star further guide us, allowing us to navigate beyond assumptions and reach a deeper truth.
