FIRST STEPS THE SPIRITUAL PATH The Aquarian Age

Everything in the universe evolves from their own kingdoms and species in the earth to the planet and the solar system itself, hence we should admit what occult philosophy says that human beings are also does thanks mainly to the laws of "Consequence " and " Renaissance." The man has been evolving, as such, about eight million years ago and from then until now we have gone from being a kind of animal we are today, that is, some people more or less sensitive and with some ability to reason and discernment.

is precisely when you reach this developmental level when it acquired spiritual development in their past lives makes a person become a "spiritual aspirant ." All souls (people) unconsciously evolving life after life, are raising their consciousness and become more spiritual, but there comes a certain life that awakens the desire and the desire to progress more quickly and is then, when the soul becomes a spiritual aspirant takes his first steps towards initiation.

This is the big difference between the normal evolution of humanity and the soul which "aims" to develop their spirit in a conscious and voluntary, and that the applicant must have a longing and an intense desire achieve something higher. Therefore, anyone wishing to become a sincere and true candidate for initiation, not be indifferent or have doubts about the effort required but should reach their spiritual goals through persistent effort and enthusiasm by many problems and obstacles that have .

While humanity evolves, in general, through slow lines and automatic test devised by top creative Hierarchies, on the contrary, the spiritual aspirant and the initiation must do so consciously and methods well-defined and clear in relation to their own development and individual constitution . But whatever the method and the lines of development, today two things that should never fail, these are the effort and persistence. Therefore, if there an ongoing and persistent difficulty initiating reach the spiritual aspirant.

To achieve the first initiation is necessary to get into contact with a Master, and to achieve this we must draw your attention, which can not be achieved if not through internal development, which in turn, can only be achieved through persistent and patient effort in good deeds. When I refer to that "good works" I mean not only the environment and the people around us but ourselves, that is, vehicles we use in each life to learn and evolve. Failure to purify such vehicles can not be spiritual progress therefore need to know what vehicles are and how they can change.

The first and most familiar is the physical bodies, so, thinking mostly of the Law of Consequence, we look after and feed it your best, that is, assimilating healthy food, nutrient-free and non-toxic products wasting energy unnecessarily, for example, with each sexual act. Of course you should not smoke, drink alcohol or eat meat, since the latter forces others to kill animals younger siblings. The physical vehicle is essential to be reborn in every life, so it is of paramount importance care because, although sexual creative energy wasted because we may be obsessed with sex, it turns out that in another life we \u200b\u200bwill invoice and we will be born with some physical or mental defect. And although many people love us, help us and we value positively for the good we're doing, the physical or mental defects prevent the next life that we evolve as it should be.

The second body that we consider is the emotional or desire body which also hosts our feelings. Like the physical body in its first time was different and wild appearance on the current, also the desire body rested on the worst feelings and desires and did not know the feelings, emotions and desires that you work with high humanity today. So, it is the duty of the applicant develop the highest spiritual feelings and desires while abhors all negative so far have dominated. it is advisable to practice altruism, brotherhood, devotion to God, meditation on high and abstract things, loving service to others, prayer and discernment about what is true and false. Remember, the wishes and feelings tied low and negative the physical world and in purgatory after death, but the good ones rise to the glorious spiritual realms we know as heaven.

Will is one aspect of the Spirit and, therefore, is that time will be, in part because it is a power of great spiritual development, however, we have another vehicle, still remain far less developed than the physical, is already of great value to us, this is the mental body.

A man can be enslaved by the desire to steal, or criticism, or any other vice, but when you're tempted to put that desire to believe in something higher, abstract or simply to pray with devotion and concentration, get beat him. If it persists it will get deleted from your life because, where a thought can not be another at the same time, ie if you are thinking about math or meditating on the Sermon on the Mount can not be thinking about stealing or how to be someone to criticize. No doubt that here the will comes into play, and little will have, no person who does not have enough to beat an evil desire or feeling through the will and discernment.

Therefore, the mind is the following vehicle that the applicant must purify and it should focus its self-consciousness and do not allow walk thinking a thousand things at once or thinking about things that we are not aware . There are three aspects regarding the mind which should be analyzed:
The first is that we should not let loose, without consciousness of it, because that would be a loss for the memory, observation, development of consciousness and even the the will in its concentration.
The second is knowing that if we use it more willingly and consciously develop the above and its own power, or whatever it is, we always use the for good and for our own development.
The third is not used in concrete or specific nothing but just watching what we do act as if we were the very Spirit who are using their vehicles to experiment and evolve.

Most of humanity is still in the first stage of development, others less so, begin to manage your mind at will or to create a better future and destiny through self-control, but the third aspect not place almost no one, if any people linked to the occult philosophy, however, raises man to the world of Spirit. But there
fourth vehicle I did not want to mention yet of which way the Body-Soul, the means by which we can be conscious in the invisible worlds . This is the etheric body, is very intertwined with the physical as it relates to their functioning, vitality, memory and consciousness but also is the vehicle to be developed by the candidate for initiation. The purification of the body and increasing the two higher ethers of the four that is made is essential for two main reasons: First, to qualify for the initiation and, second, to be conscious in the invisible worlds .

To purify ethers of the body is essential to purify the other vehicles, ie, lead a pure life, prayer and meditation, love and selfless service wherever they may . Knowing that the main enemy to overcome is the desire body, you must develop the will, persistence, patience and self-confidence, if not, the great tempter seize any moment of weakness in our daily lives to remove old feelings and desires. When the aspirant begins to tread the path that will lead to the initiation seems that all are trials and temptations, you can get nervous and excitable, and the more quickly is desires to purify his body, the harder it seems to walk the path. But there comes a time finding the balance, calm and inner peace necessary to comply with its duties and responsibilities while meeting its obligations and retreat. So, although not free of subtle temptations and trials, the spiritual life and the purification of their bodies become more affordable.

The etheric body has a very useful key is the spiritual aspirant, this is the " repetition." When repeated daily spiritual exercises appropriate, when practiced prayer, rituals, etc., We creating a habit whose effects are very important for the development of the two higher ethers of the etheric body. If, in addition to trying do everything as if for God and imitate Christ's life in business, everyday, the practice of concentration and retrospection as explained in the "Rosicrucian Cosmo Conception" by Max Heindel steps bounds on the path will . is necessary to analyze and reflect on yourself to see what our strengths and weaknesses , it is imperative to put consciousness in which it is said, is made and intended to avoid mistakes, it is necessary persistence and strength to act well every day and to overcome the temptations and trials; necessary, ultimately, would act as our own spirit that is above all the bodies.

But the applicant also must learn from the experiences on a daily basis, imply lessons you have to incorporate into their hindsight. You will notice that "friends" will give the side that people are not as he believes that fellow on the trail offend or betray him and that really is alone and thus should continue to be strong and mature. At the beginning of the path believe the applicant can be possessed of a great and wonderful truth and try to preach, others boasted of powers that do not actually have, others will love to direct and command centers, groups and meetings, but the true student should be humble and not look anything like that but only to serve others and to practice the silence of speech and observation all when going on around them.

Truth or knowledge is gained, plus the results of their exercises and prayers should be stored and only be used to give an example of life and to preach wherever there are people who seek such education . Still will humbly forgetting oneself and not talking about power in the case of taking. There comes a time that it is very difficult to reverse because they have attained the desired objectives, even before birth. Then you can not talk in a way to who we hear or seek the truth and act differently in our daily lives. then feel the need to live the spiritual life, no lies, no appearances, selfless and just because being humble and loving servants of others are experiencing a happiness inside that can not be expressed.
