"For every step that we take in the development of our occult powers, we must take a thousand steps on the path of sanctity." —Samael Aun Weor, The Major Mysteries

While New Age doctrines fixate upon awakening psychic powers, what many so-called "spiritual" advocates fail to recognize is the greater need for moral character. The acquisition of mystical abilities is not commensurate with virtue, but subordinate to it, for power without responsibility produces demons: beings who have the capacity for deeply impacting the world, but in seriously detrimental ways. See how to safely and responsibly cultivate internal powers for the furtherance of real ethics and the complete development of a true human being.
