<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">From September till December 25'th Jupiter is in its retrograde phase. It is as if Jupiter will be moving backwards (retrograde motion). This time is not very suitable for active advancement in career or decision-making in all social affairs. This is the time of stoppages, obstructions, etc. The optimal solution at this time is manifestation of built-up potential and preplanned ventures.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"> On December 25-26 Jupiter will be "stationary", at which time the new beginnings may not find their realization or their advancement will be immutable (won't be able to do anything about their inertia) - orb of +/- 7 days</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">. From end of December 2011 and until the end of year of the Rabbit (23 January 2012) Jupiter is accelerating again passing through sign of Taurus (11 June 2012). This time is auspicious for any earthly matters, concerned with establishment of financial stability and wellbeing. Also, winter-spring of 2012 might bring about events of summer 2011 (recurrence of situations of the past).</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit;">Sit comfortably in an upright position. If using a chair, sit with your feet flat on the floor. Put your hands on your thighs or folded comfortably in your lap. Keep your head nicely balanced on your spine and relax your shoulders. Allow your eyes to close. Take two or three slow relaxing breaths. Exhale slowly and completely, then wait for the inhaling to begin on its own. Relax.</span></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit;">Bring forth in your mind the energy of smiling. Use your powers of visualization to create an image that makes you feel like smiling. You might imagine before you the face of a loved one beaming love toward you. The image could be of your own smiling face, or a memory of a time when you felt love and peace. Perhaps you would like to imagine the beatific face of a divine being shining love upon you.</span></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit;">Hold the image in mind as you continue to breathe slowly and calmly. Feel the welling in your heart as the image stimulates your emotional response. Allow your heart to open to the smiling. Allow yourself to smile back at the image. The change in your facial muscles may be very slight, but let a peaceful, loving expression overtake you.</span></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit;">Become fully aware of the feeling of smiling energy in your mind and body. Register this as a state that is readily available to you. This pleasant emotional state can be summoned, just as you would summon a memory.</span></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 24px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit;">Continue to feel the smiling energy. Let this pleasant thought and feeling course through your body. You can place your inner smile anywhere in your body. You may want to focus your inner smile at each of the chakras (energy centers). Working down from the crown of your head to the base of your spine, or from the root of your spine to the top of your head. The seven major chakras include the crown, forehead (third eye), throat, heart, solar plexus, sacral, and base chakras. Smile into each area and allow the loving energy to swirl.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit;">You may also practice smiling into the various organs of your body. Send your inner smile to your heart, lungs, stomach, liver, kidneys, your glands, and so on. Direct your love to parts of your body that you don’t think about much, or that you don’t like about yourself. Be whole in your compassionate smiling self.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13px;">Once there was an old man who lived in a tiny village. Although poor, he was envied by all, for he owned a beautiful white horse. Even the king coveted his treasure. A horse like this had never been seen before – such was its splendor, its majesty, its strength. </span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13px;">
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13px;"></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 13px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
People offered fabulous prices for the steed, but the old man always refused. “This horse is not a horse to me,” he would tell them. “It is a person. How could you sell a person? He is a friend, not a possession. How could you sell a friend.” The man was poor and the temptation was great. But he never sold the horse. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One morning he found that the horse was not in his stable. All the village came to see him. “You old fool,” they scoffed, “we told you that someone would steal your horse. We warned you that you would be robbed. You are so poor. How could you ever protect such a valuable animal? It would have been better to have sold him. You could have gotten whatever price you wanted. No amount would have been to high. Now the horse is gone and you’ve been cursed with misfortune.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The old man responded, “Don’t speak too quickly. Say only that the horse is not in the stable. That is all we know; the rest is judgment. If I’ve been cursed or not, how can you know? How can you judge?”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The people contested, “Don’t make us out to be fools! We may not be philosophers, but great philosophy is not needed. The simple fact that your horse is gone is a curse.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The old man spoke again. “All I know is that the stable is empty, and the horse is gone. The rest I don’t know. Whether it be a curse or a blessing, I can’t say. All we can see is a fragment. Who can say what will come next?”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The people of the village laughed. They thought that the man was crazy. They had always thought he was a fool; if he wasn’t, he would have sold the horse and lived off the money. But instead, he was a poor woodcutter, and old man still cutting firewood and dragging it out of the forest and selling it. He lived hand to mouth in the misery of poverty. Now he had proven that he was, indeed, a fool. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After fifteen days, the horse returned. He hadn’t been stolen; he had run away into the forest. Not only had he returned, he had brought a dozen wild horses with him. Once again, the village people gathered around the woodcutter and spoke. “Old man, you were right and we were wrong. What we thought was a curse was a blessing. Please forgive us.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The man responded, “Once again, you go too far. Say only that the horse is back. State only that a dozen horses returned with him, but don’t judge. How do you know if this is a blessing or not? You see only a fragment. Unless you know the whole story, how can you judge? You read only one page of a book. Can you judge the whole book? You read only one word of one phrase. Can you understand the entire phrase?”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Life is so vast, yet you judge all of life with one page or one word. All you have is one fragment! Don’t say that this is a blessing. No one knows. I am content with what I know. I am not perturbed by what I don’t.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Maybe the old man is right,” they said to one another. So they said little. But down deep, they knew he was wrong. They knew it was a blessing. Twelve wild horses had returned. With a little work, the animals could be broken and trained and sold for much money. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The old man had a son, an only son. The young man began to break the wild horses. After a few days, he fell from one of the horses and broke both legs. Once again the villagers gathered around the old man and cast their judgments. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“You were right,” they said. “You proved you were right. The dozen horses were not a blessing. They were a curse. Your only son has broken both his legs, and now in your old age you have no one to help you. Now you are poorer than ever.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The old man spoke again. “You people are obsessed with judging. Don’t go so far. Say only that my son broke his legs. Who knows if it is a blessing or a curse? No one knows. We only have a fragment. Life comes in fragments.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It so happened that a few weeks later the country engaged in war against a neighboring country. All the young men of the village were required to join the army. Only the son of the old man was excluded, because he was injured. Once again the people gathered around the old man, crying and screaming because their sons had been taken. There was little chance that they would return. The enemy was strong, and the war would be a losing struggle. They would never see their sons again.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“You were right, old man,” They wept. “God knows you were right. This proves it. Your son’s accident was a blessing. His legs may be broken, but at least he is with you. Our sons are gone forever.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The old man spoke again. “It is impossible to talk with you. You always draw conclusions. No one knows. Say only this. Your sons had to go to war, and mine did not. No one knows if it is a blessing or a curse. </div>

In any group setting, whether at work or in a social environment, the energy is divided into 12 Archetypical roles according to Cosmic Laws. This webinar will introduce you to each of these 12 roles; which are the roles people play in group situations, which are often acted out unconsciously. Kargen Kanesh will talk about t how to become the conscious observer unidentified with just one role - and yet how to be able to flexibly play the appropriate role in any situation. </div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Tahoma, Arial; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;"></span></div>

The main idea of the Gospel is that man starts his spiritual development only when he “awakens”. For instance the Gospel very often says that Jesus keeps telling his students to stay awake.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
33. Look out, be awake, and pray, as you do not know, when this time will come.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
34. In the same way as someone when leaving his house gives his servants authority and chores to do and orders the gatekeeper to stay awake.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
35. So stay awake as you do not know when the owner is coming back: evening, or night, or at the dawn or in the morning.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
36. Because he might come back home unexpectedly and find you asleep.</div>

37. What I tell you, I tell to everyone: <em>stay awake</em></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
(Mark, ch.13) and so on</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Let us look at the Gospel from the esoteric point of view. For the beginning let’s look at Jesus’ birth. The birth of Jesus signifies the birth of consciousness. The Bible shows how it appears by describing the lineage of Jesus.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
2. Abraham gave birth to Isaac; Isaac gave birth to Jacob; Jacob gave birth to Judah and his brothers… (Matthew, ch.1)</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
…from Adam – God’s son. What does it tell us? It tells us that Jesus was also God’s son. That is how allegorically the development of consciousness is depicted, how it goes through the stages of development and reincarnation. Moving from one to another, from generation to generation this consciousness is expressed in Jesus. So Jesus was born. His birth was inaugurated by signs (for example, the Bethlehem star):</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
1. When Jesus was born in Judea’s city of Bethlehem during the days of king Herod, magicians from the east came and said:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
2. Where is Judea’s newborn King? We saw the star of the East and came to pay our respects and make our reverence.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
3. After hearing that the king got worried, and all of Jerusalem got worried with him (from Matthew, chapter 2).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Herod finds out that a new king is born and gives an order to massacre all infants in Bethlehem up to 2 years old. In the esoteric meaning, king Herod who ordered to kill the babies – is ego, i.e. that which does not want the consciousness to develop therefore tries to kill it still in the infant state, therefore the Bible story tells us that, for as long as king Herod is alive (as long as we have an ego) it will do anything to kill Jesus (our consciousness).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
You probably know by now that each man has both a King and a Slave in him. The Slave in us rules when we are not developing spiritually Therefore when our Slave (king Herod) finds out that the King (Jesus) is born, he becomes restless, mad, he has one desire – to kill the King, not to give him a chance to develop – this is the Bible’s story and shows us how our ego behaves (through the behaviour of king Herod). But the consciousness cannot be killed! That is why the parents of Jesus manage to hide him, he survives, i.e. king Herod fails to kill him:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
13. When they left – God’s Angel comes to Josef’s dream and says: get up, take the baby and his Mother and run to Egypt and stay there until I tell you. Herod wants to search for the baby in order to kill it.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
14. He got up at night took the baby and his Mother and went to Egypt. (from Matthew, ch.2)</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
If we look at this aspect of the Bible from the point of view of shamanism (shamanism is the most ancient religion), we would see that at that moment all the power from the dead & killed babies (which is the power Kut in shamanism) goes over to Jesus.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But the Bible’s allegory also explains that precisely because of it all the energy of the dead babies went to Jesus. He was precisely the one to gather all this power so that he could fulfil his high purpose. Jesus is a shaman. From the shamanic point of view the meaning of the infants’ death after the birth of the future savoir of humanity is very clear. The magic aspect of it is that the power of all the babies passes over to one – the one who has survived, and he becomes the strongest one as he obtains the power Kut.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
When a man prepares to become a shaman, always at the same time some of his relatives die (to give him their power Kut). The same is written in the Bible.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Jesus was born in a barn. What does it tell us? Animals are born in barns. All people are like animals, i.e. they are on the level of animals, their only concern is survival, until they become spiritual. Here the birth of consciousness is shown: from animal like to Godly.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
How does human development happen? When a man is born he is on the level of his essence. A child does not have thoughts about anything, just simple desires: eat, sleep, walk – these are the natural desires of the essence, and the only ones that the child wants to satisfy. But then he is brought up by his parents and society, and in him a false personality is born that depends on his immediate environment. If a man would be brought up in a spiritual environment, his false personality would resemble this environment. For instance, Krishnamurti is a good example of that, he was in a spiritual environment from an early age and was brought up by spiritual people.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But even in that case, in order for the essence to develop one needs to make additional efforts. When Krishnamurti’s consciousness grows larger than his teachers, he leaves them. His false personality was of a different, higher level. Normally the false personality is lower in development than the spiritual one and also of the essence. When a man starts developing, he forms a spiritual personality which becomes higher than his essence. The higher the spiritual personality the more possible it is for the essence to develop further.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
When just the false personality is present, and the spiritual personality does not yet exist, the essence is not nurtured and can not develop.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
That is why it is said that the animal is holier than the human. Or sometimes we say about someone: “He is worse than an animal!” Why do we say so? Because the false personality in its development is lower than the essence, so even the animals’ seem higher and purer. If the development of the spiritual personality could be observed in terms of the way of how the perception of the world changes, the development of the essence on the other hand could be seen by the emergence of spiritual needs. A low essence has only physical needs. If an essence starts developing it already becomes capable of not just eating but also of feeling the food, unlike a dog; i.e. eating with higher impressions. As long as the false personality rules, the essence is restricted in its expressions and more so in its development. It has its natural needs but they are restricted. What is an ordinary man doing? He does not move much, he only eats, drinks, sleeps, breathes and all that…Not much movements. The results are: diseases, stresses, neuroses.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But when the spiritual personality starts developing man begins to understand that his essence needs to move more, to develop, to receive more impressions. A lot of interests appear, the essence starts moving out of all restrictions. If it wants to swim – it swims, if it wants to eat – it does it correctly, for instance one does not overeat; if it wants to rest – it choses the rest which is beneficial for health. It starts feeling what is beneficial for it. It will start actively developing itself.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
If you are reading these words now it means that you are one whose spiritual personality is developing. But it does not mean that you do not have a false personality. The false personality often tunes into the spiritual. It is smart; one might not notice its expressions. The Spiritual personality – is that part in us which helps our essence to develop, which brings one the understanding that one really needs.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Precisely the spiritual personality helps us to receive knowledge and information needed for self-development. A cat, a dog and other animals cannot receive knowledge and information beneficial for their development. Men have personality which allows them to perceive things. The false personality perceives only the conditions of society and stereotypes; the spiritual personality strives to learn and to understand for itself what is good for it and what is bad. It is concerned with development of its essence, with becoming conscious, with becoming free.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Precisely the spiritual personality is the one which starts counting breaths. The striving for self-development is an attribute of the spiritual personality. When the spiritual personality is developed and formed then the essence transforms into Divine individuality. So Jesus is born and magicians come to him to express their reverence – it is the personification of spiritual parts striving for the light of the born consciousness.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
10. When they saw the star they rejoiced.</div>

11. When they entered the house they saw the Baby with Mary, his Mother and bowed to him; opened up their treasures and gifted him with gold, incense and………(Matthew, ch.2)</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
From the moment Jesus was born he presents a high level of consciousness and the bible describes it: for instance from an early age he studies and interprets the scriptures. Remember the moment when his parents lost him and it turned out that he was sitting in the temple and listening to the priests talk, and asking questions and he taught them things, too. Even his mother and father were surprised by this. There is a moment when they find him and say: “We are your mother and father!” He answers them: “Do you not know that I am the son of my Father, and where else is my place if not in the temple of my Father, the Holy Father?”</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Here is where the division lies: the consciousness has a Father, the same way that the body has a father, but differently.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Consciousness is present in each human; it is born with each human. But the human is asleep; his consciousness is in a state of germination. Therefore humanity is in the state of animal. And only when a man connects to Higher knowledge does the consciousness begin to awaken. And if it would not be for Jesus coming to earth, we would still be on the level of animals.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
If we look at the birth of Christ from the astrological point of view, we need to consider that first of all each human is born with a certain purpose which is reflected in his natal chart. I.e. the purpose of a man is connected to the planetary positions at the moment of his birth and the way they affect him. But many people are born at the same moment. So theoretically they would have to have the same purpose – one program, as they have the same natal chart. A cockroach could be born at the same time as Jesus Christ.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But the natal chart of a cockroach and a human being are two different things. Each one who is born carries only a part of this chart. People differ one from another in the same way as a cockroach and a man, as in a human society polarisation takes place: there is a leader, there is a subordinate, there are strong people – there are weak people, there are clever people – there are stupid ones and so on. Each one has his own purpose.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Naturally the strongest one becomes a leader in this group of people born at the same time. In this way it is described how it happened that Jesus became a leader: when all other infants were killed, Jesus received all the power from them whose natal charts matched his and their power was incorporated unto him.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
So let’s return back to the main meaning of the Gospel. Why Jesus says:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
3. I am telling you the truth: you will not enter the Heavenly Kingdom until you become child-like (Matthew, ch.18)?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
It means that until your consciousness will awaken no one enters the Heavenly Kingdom. A child represents human consciousness.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Further the Bible describes how Jesus was christened. He goes to John for christening. John represents the moral part of our personality which formally follows the dogmas. He tells people:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
25. They asked John: why do you christen if you are neither Christ, nor Eliah, nor a prophet?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
26. John tells them in reply: I christen in water; but there is someone amongst you that you do not know.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
27. He is the one who Follows me, but he is the one in front of me. I am not worthy to untie the belts of his shoes (from John, ch.1).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Water – it is high emotions. Jesus christens – i.e. fills up with high emotions. He gets in touch with his emotions, is christened and reaches a high state. After that the sky opens up and the Holy Spirit in the shape of a dove descends and they hear the voice of Christ. What is happening at that moment? The awakening of consciousness is happening. When a human fills up with high emotions they help him to awaken the consciousness. The more often a man prays, talks to God, remains in a state of prayer; the more subtle energy he receives, and the more this fills him, the more chance he has to awaken his consciousness.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
In the beginning a person tries for instance, to count his breaths for as long as he can, he could watch a creek a longer period, and more realistically. This happens because of the subtle energy: the more one has, the more one prays, the more awakened one becomes. Only after that does the awakening of consciousness happens.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Then Jesus goes to the desert. What is the desert? The mind becomes empty from its sick imagination. I.e. from this moment on a man starts realistically to see the world. His mind is not trapped any more in sick imagination – he just observes things without judgment. He is not imagining any more, therefore he can see without any prejudices and denotations.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QF6PA7WQvRs/TiKFQaecB1I/AAAAAAAAA6o/04QrXhBcUPk/s1600/emptiness.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="281" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QF6PA7WQvRs/TiKFQaecB1I/AAAAAAAAA6o/04QrXhBcUPk/s400/emptiness.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Hence Jesus in the desert represents the ability of our consciousness to be empty, i.e. our mind could become empty and would not be imagining anything. It means that we would see and feel ourself realistically. If we see a real creek we won’t have the need to imagine it.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Is it possible to suffer while being in a high state? Of course not! Jesus is guided by the Holy Spirit. And here is where the Devil (sick imagination) starts tempting him – i.e. the sick imagination cunningly and deviously enters the empty mind:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
1. Then Jesus was taken by the spirit into a desert to be tempted by the Devil</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
2. After fasting for forty days and forty nights he became hungry.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Hunger means that the sick imagination became joyful. The Devil tells him: “come on get into your illusions about this world, that the world of imagination does exist”.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
3. The tempter tells him: if you are really the son of God, make bread out of these stones.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But Jesus looked at the stones and realizes that he is as empty as these stones; that he became like a desert too and replied:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
4. It is not bread alone that keeps a human alive, but the words that come out of God’s mouth.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
In other words not only the sick imagination (false ego) will keep a human alive, but the words coming from above, from God, from a Teacher, from spiritual knowledge and spiritual impressions; i.e. alive not only from worldly impressions but from spiritual ones too.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
You’ve probably noticed that when you are consumed by a certain interest you forget that your body wants to eat, sleep, and drink? You forget about everything in the world, about all your bodily needs because you are consumed by spiritual impressions, you are filled by them.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Therefore they say, that “Man does not live by bread alone”.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
5. Then the devil takes him to the holy town and puts him on a temple’s wing,</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
6. And tells Him: if you are God’s Son, throw yourself down because it’s written: he will tell his angels to carry you in their arms so that you will not be harmed by the stones.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Here the Devil tempts him with the thought: “Create a miracle: throw yourself down and stay alive”.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Later at the crucifixion one of the thieves is also tempting Jesus with words: “save yourselves and us”. What is happening at that moment? The same way the devil tempted Jesus, people are trying the ones who they want to become holy, they ask him to perform a miracle for them. “the holy person is supposed to be able to create miracles, it can not be otherwise!” – They think. But Sai Baba’s creating “miracles” does not make him holy. And then:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
7. Jesus told him: it is also written do not tempt your God (from Matthew, ch.4).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
An intelligent person goes for the knowledge, with trust, with faith. Even P.D. Ouspensky (he was quite an intelligent man) demanded from Gurdgieff some miracle. He used to ask: “are there any facts?”, demanding by this some proof of miracle. In the same way man’s sick imagination demands miracles:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
28. Peter said to him in reply: God! If it’s you, order me to come to you by walking on the water.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
29. Jesus said: go. Peter got out of the boat to come to Jesus, and started walking on the water</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
30. But when he saw the strong wind, he got frightened, fell in & began drowning and yelled out: God! Save me.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
31. Jesus extended to him his hand, supported him and said: you do not have faith! Why did you stumble?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
32. When they got back into the boat the wind had stopped.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
33. People who were in the boat came up to him bowed to him and said: truly you are the Son of God!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And if a person (like Sai Baba) succumbs to the temptation, thinking that he is so great and starts performing so called miracles, he is fooling himself. One needs to let go of the sick imagination and to strengthen his faith. The biggest miracle is not to live without sleep, not to materialise things but to awaken the consciousness – it is the biggest miracle: to be able to merge with God and to dissolve in God.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
8. Again the devil takes him to the highest mountain and shows him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory,</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
9. And tells him: I will give it all to you if you succumb to me and bow to me.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
I.e. imagine that you have it all, that it’s all yours. An ordinary person constantly falls asleep thinking that he owns something, he can not see that he is nobody, that all this is not his.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
10. Then Jesus says: go away from me Satan as it is written: Bow only to God and serve only him.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
11. Then the devil leaves him, and the angels come and begin serving him (from Matthew, ch.4)</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
This example tells us that Jesus let go of the sick imagination.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But Jesus still remains. Jesus, i.e. he still has at that moment his false personality. And only when his consciousness completely awakens will he become the Christ. The Bible’s story in the desert shows us that until Jesus dies, (the false personality) a man still remains imperfect.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
We can look at the example of the girl-dog. There was an incident when a little girl was found living with a pack of dogs, where she was abandoned by her parents after her birth. While the girl was living with the dogs she completely felt herself as a dog, i.e. her false personality thought so. When she was found and taken to live with people they were telling her: “You are a human, enough walking on your four legs!”, then she would remember and would get up and walk on her two legs. But then she would forget about it quickly and would again walk on her four legs and even bark and crawl, i.e. she kept forgetting that she was a human. And until the memory of her being as a dog died, she would not start walking on her two legs permanently; she would walk sometimes on two legs, sometimes on four. She would fall asleep constantly from time to time.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And until Jesus was alive it means that the consciousness was not fully liberated yet. But if it has awakened, then it’s already in the first stage. A human can and should awaken. And when he understands that the whole world is an illusion then this state gets stronger. When Jesus was in the desert he got stronger in his faith, he got stronger in his belief that the whole world is a desert, that the whole world is dead! It is not life – it’s all just an illusion. The temptations and trials come only for the purpose of making one stronger. Further, according to the Bible’s story then Jesus starts teaching and healing people.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
One of the examples of his teaching is Jesus’ mountain sermon. What does “mountain” mean? Jesus gathered his students, the ones who were close to him. In this way a pyramid (mountain) is created, Jesus was on the top, and he rose there before all his students, the ones he was teaching. Yes, he teaches the crowd too, but the crowd is at the very bottom of this pyramid – that is their level. He tells parables to everyone, but the meaning of them is not clear to an ordinary man; the interpretations of parables he gives only to his students.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Who is a student? In the Bible the students represent the spiritual parts, which perceive the knowledge, listen and try to see – i.e. developing. Indeed they (students) are the ones who are there at the mountain with him. The Knowledge that they receive comes from above, from Divine heights. The Bible teaches us to become students (to develop your spiritual parts) and to rise there where Jesus – their Teacher, who guides his students to the top of the mountain, where he is. He has not risen to the heavens yet, he is still at the top of the mountain. The mountain shows us where, on what level we are – levels of human purpose: some have a purpose to be a Teacher, some – to become a student, some have a purpose to go to war for example and so on.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
What does it mean to heal in the Bible, from the esoteric point of view? For instance, what does it mean to be blind, deaf, relaxed and so on? Blindness – signifies spiritual blindness; deafness – spiritual deafness. A human who is not open to knowledge is blind, he can not see the real world, and the deaf one can not perceive true knowledge. The relaxed ones in the Bible signify people who completely rely on inner stereotypes of thinking, therefore their mind is relaxed, not susceptible to the outside world and to new knowledge. Jesus heals the relaxed ones:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
24. The word about him spread all over Syria; they were bringing the weak ones to him, the ones possessed by various illnesses and fits, the mad ones, the lunatics and the relaxed ones and He healed them.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
25. A big crowd followed him, people from Galilee, Jerusalem, Judea and Jordan (Matthew, ch.4)</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And yet another example:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
6. God! My servant lies at home <em>in relaxation</em> suffering enormously.<strong><em></em></strong></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
7. Jesus tells him: I will come and heal him.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
8. He answered: God! I am not worthy for you to enter my house, just say a word and my servant will be healed;</div>

9. As I am a Believer, but I have warriors that will attend me, I tell one: go and he goes; I tell the other one come and he comes; I tell my servant: do this and he does.</div>

10. Jesus was surprised to hear that and he told the ones who followed him: truly, I have not found faith like this in Israel.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">

13. Jesus said to him: go and everything will happen according to your belief. And his servant recovered at the very same moment (Matthew, ch.8).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Healing – is the awakening of our soul. It helps people to see themselves and the world realistically. Christ helps people to hear the truth, to banish the devil (in sick imagination), and he awakens people (consciousness). This is depicted in the Bible as a miracle; Jesus is great because he performs miracles.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Why are miracles shown? An ordinary person cannot understand until he receives his miracle. An ordinary person will hang back until he sees a miracle. When he sees: “Oh, here they do miracles!” then he will follow. And only few out of them will later perceive the truth and would be able to hear. In reality the true miracle was – that Jesus was awakening people, in his Teachings, how to awaken, in his giving of the knowledge.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
There also is a moment when God talks about his people creating two evils for themselves; one of these evils is that they created pots which could not keep the water: conditions, programs, stereotypes, idols. Remember how many people you know who are filled up with conditionings, who create programs and stereotypes for themselves – see how because of this they are full of negative emotions. They get into hysterics and emotional breakdowns from the wrong conditioning (pots). The correct, true conditioning helps us to come to the source of living water.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
In the Bible water signifies: murky – negative emotions, pure – positive emotions. High emotions in the Bible mean pure water, living water meaning that this is Higher Truth:</div>

11. Jesus says to her in reply: if you would know the God’s gift and who is asking you for water you would ask him for water and he would give you the <em>living water</em>.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">

14. And the ones who drink the water I give to them would never ever be thirsty again: but the water I give them would become in them a source of water flowing into eternal life.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">

Here we come to the culmination point of the story: Jesus is being judged and sentenced to the crucifixion:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">

12. When he was accused by priests and elders he did not reply.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
13. When Pontius Pilate tells him: can’t you hear how many people are testifying against you?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
14. And he did not answer to him at all, which surprised the ruler.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
15. On the Easter celebration the ruler had a custom to release one prisoner for people, on their demand.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
16. There was a well-known prisoner by the name of Barabbas;</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
17. So when they gathered, Pilate asked them: who do you want me to release? Barabbas or Jesus who is called the Christ?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
18. Because Pilate knew that Jesus had been betrayed out of jealousy.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
19. While Pilate was sitting in the prosecutors’ chair his wife sent him a message: do not harm this righteous man because I in my dream suffered immensely for him.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
20. But the priests and elders talked the people into asking for Barabbas, and to kill Jesus.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The first commandment says:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
1. Do not judge and you won’t be judged (Matthew, ch.7).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Pilates signifies the intellectual part in a human (Gurdjieff’s – Ouspenski system) and does not condemn Jesus because he can not see – who is to condemn. I.e. he understands that unaware, sleeping people are mechanical like machines, they are unaware of what they do. And when we come to understanding, at least when we switch on our intellectual center (mind) we see that there is no one to condemn.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Yes, we are making lots of mistakes, but it matters what kind of mistakes. The most important thing is not to make mistakes in regards to our consciousness, to our development – this is when we give ourselves the wrong conditionings, when we react wrongly, when we identify with the wrong things. And if this is happening, we need to repent. Otherwise we do not care if we do something wrong – we are asleep anyway. All people are asleep. Only Christ is awakened. Therefore each one of us can make mistakes, but the most important mistake is when we do not want to develop. We need to repent when we do not want to change something in ourselves, or to become aware.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The crowd in the Gospel – is people’s parts. Therefore when He enters the city they greet him with happiness but in a short while the same people yell: “Kill him! Crucify him!” these are the different parts in human which are asleep, which are unaware of the self, which do not understand what they do:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
21. Then the ruler asked them: who do you want me to release for you? They said: Barabbas.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
22. Pilates says to them: what do I do with Jesus, who is called Christ? They all say: let him be crucified.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
23. The ruler says: what evil did he do? But they only screamed louder: let him be crucified.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
24. Pilates sees that nothing helps, but the turmoil is getting stronger, he got some water and washed his hands in front of the crowd and said: I am not guilty of the blood spill of this righteous man; see for yourself.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
25. And the crowd says in reply: his blood is on us and our children.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Jesus also says: “God, forgive them as they do not know what they do”, i.e. he does not judge them either, as he can see that they are fully asleep and therefore do not understand what they do. P.D. Ouspensky, the student of Gurdjieff, talks very clearly about it:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
I asked Gurdjieff what one needs to do to grasp his teaching.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
- What to do? – asked Gurdjieff, surprisingly. – One can not <strong><em>do</em></strong> anything. First of all one needs to <strong><em>understand</em></strong>. Man has thousands of false ideas first of all about himself. He has to get rid of some of them before he can obtain anything new. Otherwise this new knowledge would be built on the wrong basis and the result would be worse than before.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
- So how we can get rid of false ideas? – I asked. – We are depending on our forms of perception. False ideas are created by the forms of our perception.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Gurdjieff shook his head.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
- You are talking about something else again, he said. – You are talking about mistakes, coming out of perception, but I am not talking about this. Bound by his perception man can be more or less mistaken. However, as I said before the main delusion of a man is that he can <em>do</em> something. All people think that they can do something, all people want to do something; and the first question they ask is: what can I do.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But in reality no one does anything, no one can do anything. This is the first thing one needs to understand. <em>Everything happens</em>. Anything that happens to a man, anything he has done, anything that comes out of him, – <em>it all happens</em>.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And it happens the same way as rainfall after some changes in the upper layers of the atmosphere or in the clouds, the way the snow melts when the sun rays fall on it, the same way as the dust rises from the wind.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
It could be seen clearly when we try to do something new, or when our thoughts bump into some contradiction.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Jesus’ crucifixion – is the resurrection of Christ, therefore the crucifixion means to be born again, it shows the inner path of human development, his inner work, esoterically speaking.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
46. On the cross, at about nine o’clock Jesus cried out loudly: Ili, Ili! Lama savahvani, which means “My God, My God! Why have You forsaken Me?”</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
47. Some people who were there heard it and said: He is calling Ilia.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
But God had forsaken not him but his false personality so that the Christ, now absolutely free could dissolve in him.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
25. At the cross of Jesus, there was his Mother, and his Mother’s sister, Maria Kleopova, and Maria Magdalena.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
26. Jesus when he saw his Mother and his student which he loved, said to his Mother: this is your son:</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
27. And then to his student: she is your mother! From that moment on his student took her to live with him.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The Woman in the Bible, particularly Jesus’ mother signifies the emotional center of a human.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
28. After that, Jesus knowing that it has all already happened says: I am thirsty.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
29. There was a bottle full of vinegar. Warriors saturated a sponge with it and put it on his lips.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
30. When he drank some vinegar, he said: it is done! He lowered his head and passed on (John, ch.19).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Vinegar represents worldly impressions. Precisely these impressions form our false personality.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And what is resurrection? It is liberation from it.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Therefore the most important thing is to let go of our false personality. And the Bible gives us an example how Jesus became stronger in his faith, how he ascertained that all his false personality was based on lies; that sick imagination will not serve you well. He is awakened, he is developing his essence, praying, talking to God, experiencing a state of merging with the Divine, residing in bliss.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
That was what he was teaching to his students, that was why he was capable of healing – because of that he was on such high level!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Bu only Jesus could be crucified, only Jesus could die, as going through this cross Christ was being re-born – Christ is resurrected! Because Jesus is getting free from his false personality. So, for as long as Jesus was alive, his Ego, his false personality was alive. He got crucified – and Jesus awakened in Christ! Jesus Christ – is both. In other words ego and consciousness are both present in a human. But when he resurrects and becomes Christ, completely dissolving in God, then his ego dies, and only consciousness remains.</div>

<div class="post" id="post-12" style="clear: both; padding-top: 15px;">
<div class="entry" style="clear: both; padding-top: 10px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">

Tell me: <i>did you wake up today thinking about God?</i></div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Now we are going to learn about the orthodox festivity of Easter, which is one of the methods to remind us about God. Now we are not going into the depth of this ritual, which lasts seven days but we will look into the key phrases which are used during the days of this holy festivity.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">“Jesus Resurrected!” “Truly Resurrected!”. We always hear these words precisely over those days. But what is the meaning of these words? First of all what is Christ?</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Christ is consciousness. To resurrect means to awaken consciousness: “Christ Resurrected!” It is a custom to reply: “Truly Resurrected!”, where “Truly” could be understood as “in truth” resurrected, i.e. awakened in the Highest.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And now try to grasp these words and repeat them consciously: “Jesus Resurrected!” What do you hear now in these words? Just a historical fact or something deeper?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The majority of people during the Soviet years lost respect for these holy words and formed an attitude similar to congratulating each other upon New Year’s Eve. But now when the orthodox faith is not in danger of governmental prosecution we can pronounce these words like genuine Christians with deep faith in the triumph of Christ!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Christ had died on the cross: the son of God could not die the way we understand death. He died as false personality, died as matter, so that he could resurrect for eternal life, so he could revive in Truth, be with God eternally. That is what happened: he sacrificed everything to become himself.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Rephrasing a well-known phrase we could say the following: “no use to blame life if your existence is crooked” – i.e. no point to demand anything from life, it is useless, one can not change the world, and one can do nothing unless he changes his being.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Then what it does it mean to “become holy”? It means to develop one’s being to a level where one remembers God without anyone’s reminders.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Let’s look at God’s Law, how the Orthodox Church conducts a service for this holy festivity of Easter.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The word “Easter” in translation from Jewish means “passage” or “redemption”. Jews celebrate the Old Testament Easter, remembering the liberation of their ancestors from Egyptian slavery. This is a historic fact. But one could see the deeper meaning of this festivity.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Slavery – is a false personality, i.e. In the liberation of Jewish people from slavery we can see the possibility of liberation of our divine essence from the personality obtained in the social world. Hereby this festivity reminds us that we have two parallels: essence and personality (truth and lie). Essence is what truly belongs to us, as it was given to us by God; lie on the other hand is not ours. And truly when we live by the personality we feel enslaved. When we live in the essence we feel freer and could become a Christ (not in personality which could only wish for being taken for Christ, but in essence, as only an essence could be as pure as Christ).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Orthodox Christians celebrate the New Testament Easter, celebrating deliverance of all humanity through Christ from slavery of the Devil and for the gift of life and eternal bliss.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
What is the Devil? It is deliverance from lies, false personality and from the sordid nature of humanity. When a man can step over the lies, conquer his sordid desires, when he takes the path of truth and becomes a Christlike being. And until we learn about our divine essence, until we understand, we will be constantly sent to the Earth again and again by God, until we get fed up with all the disappointments, lies, and sufferings – in Devil. Till we decide that there is no use for suffering in vain, but only for his truth. Only then will we be able to free ourselves from the Devil, when we can see all the beauty of suffering.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">“<em>By the importance of benefactions received through the resurrection of Christ, Easter is the festivity of festivities, solemnity of solemnities – that is why worshiping this festivity is majesty and triumph”.</em></li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Why was Easter so important for Christians? Because it is the most important festivity – it is the beginning of new life and liberation.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The process of worship looks like this: a while before midnight all believers dressed in light coloured outfits gather in the temple awaiting with reverence the beginning of the Easter celebration. The priests all dress in light clothing. Just before midnight the bells toll announcing the start of a great moment of the holy festivity of the Christ Resurrection.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Great moment – is the precise beginning time of the festivity (astrologically this festivity starts when corresponding planets get into a certain position. In ancient times there were special observatories determining precisely to the minute when the real Easter would begin). But in our time the majority of people do not know this and make the calendar the point of reference. But if people really want to live according to the cosmic laws (and we do know what it means to live in agreement with God) they would have considered this.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
When the real event was happening with Christ, people who were there were circuiting his coffin three times. In our time because we do not have the coffin believers walk round the church three times. At this time the bells ring, pealing as if from the sky and all praying people walk with lit candles which represent spiritual darkness and the joy of the light bringing festivity.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The candle is not by coincidence here: to see the light, the darkness is needed. Who is in darkness? Humans. And when he holds a lit a candle in his hands he represents Christ, i.e. highest. In its highest meaning the candlelight – is the light of consciousness, the light of Christ. In order for sound to exist, silence is needed. Therefore all this exisst in our lives simultaneously.</div>

Christ says: “Ask and you shall receive”. Really why is it that when a man prays to God, he either receives what he asks for or he does not (then he feels upset with God)? If we ask for something, even if we already have something (though we could have nothing), we need to be able to know: “Do I have a need for it? Good that I have it now. But when the time comes to loose it would I really see it as being the meaning of life?!…” in this way we learn to become like Christ. I.e. we become aware that whenever we obtain something sooner or later we are going to lose it. If for example we want to enjoy having a car we need to be prepared that one day it is going to break down.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And it’s like this in everything. If you have a prestigious job today, it does not mean that you will always have it. You need to be prepared for various negative situations, for instance, conflict with your boss, colleagues, controlling organisations and many other things.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
All of this needs to be adopted by you if you are on a spiritual path too. You should not be thinking that if you go regularly to church it means that you are rising up. You would have falls too. And it should be taken with joy. THIS IS A NATURAL PROCESS OF LIFE. From this position we could develop the <em>observer</em>. Why are we talking about the observer? Because the observer comes prior to Christ’s resurrection (Moses in us).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
At six the people stop at the closed gates of the temple, as if at the door of the coffin of Christ.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The gates are shut and they enter from the west, which has its significance. Initially the churches were built according to the world directions; there were separate entrances for certain groups of people.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
This ritual has a deep meaning. Here the call of the priest is similar to the Angels” enunciation of the Christ resurrection. He announces the joyful news: <em>“Christ is resurrected from death, He has conquered death with death and gifted the living in coffins with life”</em>. This song is repeated three times by clergymen. Three times has its significance too: it is a symbol of triune, holy trinity.<br />

<li style="text-align: justify;">If we are to convey the essence of the Christ teachings in one sentence, the abovementioned phrase would be the most suitable one: <em>“Christ got resurrected from death, conquered death with death and gifted the living in coffins with life”</em>. This phrase is one of the key phrases of Christianity; the whole knowledge is hidden in it. This teaching is for inner work. Christ is teaching us what could happen in out essence: consciousness could only be resurrected when it is resurrected from death. What does it mean “death”?</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Let’s remember the Easter egg. It has not only a shell, it has three membranes: outer shell – illusion, second membrane – attachments, third – habits. The outer shell is the most fragile, as it consists of the external impressions (lie). I.e. through this image of an egg we see what we need to sacrifice –lie. Take smoking for instance: is it good for you to smoke? The body is the one that smokes, but image is the one that wants it, i.e. lie. The habit is connected to body – it is the same lie, just stronger, because it is attached to the essence. “Christ got resurrected from dead” – who is dead here? Consciousness (light) – is the opposite to robotization (mechanicalness, darkness). It means that the consciousness is resurrected from mechanicalness. The Christ would not be able to get resurrected to begin with if he would not be mechanical beforehand. He was incarnated here to destroy all mechanicalness; he overcomes all lies and resurrects consciousness. It would not be possible without a physical body; development is only possible on the physical plane, as life is the training ground for fostering souls. “To conquer death with death”!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Christ died for the lies, although other people who identify with lies will live in in the circle of life and death for as long as they consider themselves to be these lies.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
What does it mean “died for lies”? For instance before he got resurrected the son of the carpenter had died in him (it is only one lie, but there are lots of it).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
There is a parable about a seed which was told by Christ. It says: one seed was planted on a stone and it died. The second seed was planted on the road – it rooted but the sprout was split by a carriage. And only the third one which was planted on good soil grew. What does this soil represent? It means the Egregor: if you are in the Egregor, it means you are in good soil, which means you can grow.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
There was a lot of seeds – this is the personification of the rule which exists in everything: mass is required in order for the only few who attain. Any civilisation existed just for this purpose, so that very few would reach the highest level of development. Other people are also needed but not many could achieve the same level. Thus the Christian egregor was created so that a man like Christ could come.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Why are people so joyful when they say “Christ is resurrected!” – “Truly Resurrected!”?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Because they share the joy that someone got resurrected in Truth which means – got liberated.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The priest comes out of the altar – this reminds of the frequent emergence of God to his students on Sundays. Sundays – means awakening.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The church is an object not so much for people who consider themselves to be Christians, but for those who are really becoming Christians. The Priest in this action comes and goes like our consciousness on this particular level of faith (development) can come and go.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
That’s what this part of the ritual represents.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
At the end after the morning singing people hug each other: the brothers and the ones who hate us– everyone is forgiven on Sunday. The believers start greeting each other saying: “Christ is Resurrected!” – And get an answer: “Truly Resurrected!”</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">This greeting is accompanied by the gift of Easter eggs which is a symbol of rising from the coffin, the resurrection of life by the power of almighty God.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Eggs are a symbol of rising from a coffin. Yolk – is our essence which is supposed to break through lies (through the shell), to become Christ and not just a man. Favourable conditions are required for the egg to grow. Hence we could freeze an egg and a chick is not going to be born. But we could keep it in a warm space and the chick inside it would become strong in these favourable conditions</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And then it could break the shell on its own. A favourable environment is required!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
If you are under the guidance of genuine faith, you are like these eggs, even though you are not developed yet – you still have the possibility to become a chick! It means one day you would be able to fly! But….before you fly you need to hatch. It means that we need to understand that we won’t be able to part with all our habits, to get rid of the false personality, of the Devil straight away, the moment we decide to take a spiritual path. No! But the sooner we obtain the understanding that without the favourable environment our essence is like an egg without an incubator, the sooner our chick is going to get stronger. And if someone thinks that somebody else could do it for him, let him visualise the egg again: if it could be done from the outside it could be done by only one means – breaking the egg. Is it going to work? No. The Chick is our soul; it’s only us alone that could develop our Soul.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Brothers and the ones who hate us hug each other; we forgive everyone on the day of resurrection. This is hard to understand, but if we look at the word “hatred” we would get closer to understanding.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
In Russian language the word “hatred” could be also read as “not to see”. So the ones who hate us are the ones who do not see who we are. Truly, we often do not see a person because we do not understand him. But when we get to understand him the hatred disappears.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">And now let’s remember the words of Jovan Zlatoust: “may the one who is godly and prayerful enjoy God’s glory”. Jovan appeals to everyone; the rich and the poor to be joyful. All are the same to God: rich and poor – it is all false labels, the same ones like that Christ was the son of a carpenter. Before the end of the liturgy the Easter bread is consecrated and shared during the holy Saturday after the liturgy with all believers as an Easter blessing. When offered to taste Easter bread –a true believer is supposed to feel the connection to Christ and Christianity.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Attachment:</strong></div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Holy remains – it’s when the monks, who attained a certain level go through a special ritual, like Christ. These monks – are not ordinary people, they are people who have developed their astral body to a certain extent. This quality extends all over the body. To make their remains holy the monk would gradually get his body into a mummified state, after which he would leave his body. The monk would get his body prepared for this.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
What happens when a man dies quickly? The soul start suffering, this could affect family members and other people who are emotionally connected to this person. In this case a vast amount of energy is released. Therefore monks get prepared for death long before it happens: they gradually leave their body.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Note that all the worlds’ nations have a special meaning attached to holy remains. Why do bones have this special meaning, why are bones in particular considered to be holy? Using the shaman’s perspective we could say that bones contain information and also if the bones belong to a holy person he leaves his power in his bones after death. His soul goes to God but through his bones he keeps the connection with the earthly.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
What for? So that this developed being can have a connection with us.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Why are only the bones of holy people considered to be holy? Because the holy people are precisely the ones who have this kind of energy. If we are tuned into receiving help and information from these holy remains we can receive an answer or healing when we touch them.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">What does it mean to “tune in”? In the Russian language the words “tune in” could be also read as “three of us”. This means that to tune in is to have three.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
What do we have that is three inside of us? Body, feelings and mind. Which means that with our mind we need to understand what answer we want to receive; with our feelings we need to be in a certain state (not angry or aggressive but humble); with our body we need to do certain actions such as praying, bowing, crossing ourselves.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
If all these three parts are working in us simultaneously – it means we are tuned in, and that will bring about a result from any contact with holy remains.</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">If there is no tuning in, the “Babylon tower” appears. The Tower is the symbol of false Personality. Instead of creating a cult of simple truth, of divine “I”, people create a cult of false personality. That is why God had destroyed the “Babylon Tower”. It is written in the Bible that Gods have become angry with people and that’s how people began talking in different languages and therefore stopped understanding each other.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">The same principle as with holy remains we could see in charged icons.</li>
</ul>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
How were the charged icons created? Some monks were making holy remains out of their bodies; some would put their energy into icons so that later on descendants would be able to use them. Holy icons could have been also created by a group of monks: when a big group of people tuned into the same idea (in icon for example) gather, their energy accumulates in this object. And this object becomes truly magic: it heals; it sends bliss – and it helps people.</div>

<span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"><span class="apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">You have to understand what Fame is. When
people applaud you, admire you, they direct their attention towards you, and
with this attention they also direct their energy towards you. You need this
energy. When you want to be wealthy, you also need this energy, because money
and goods are materialized forms of energy. People waste their energy and
knowledge at work, in return they receive an equivalent of energy in the form
of money, and with its help they can renew their energy reserves. Wealth is one
form of energy. Youth and beauty are other forms of this energy. As long as a
man is full of energy, he is young, energetic, beautiful - regardless of his
age. Yogis conserve youth and beauty till they come to age of discretion –
200-300 years. At this age they can look like young men and young women,
because they are full of vital power. Goddess Shakti gives them beauty, energy,
youth, power and other qualities.</span></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"><br />
<br />
<span class="apple-style-span">Love, happiness, knowledge are also different
forms of energy. A man pursues those because he wants to be filled with energy
of Shakti. When a man is filled with energy of Shakti, he is satisfied.
Therefore, he is intent on all these purposes.</span><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><br />
<span class="apple-style-span">If a person understands this and knows how to
manage this energy, he starts to connect with energies that come from planets
and stars, he starts to receive satisfaction much faster. Otherwise the process
is slower because of attachment to particular form that always limits him. He
is being told, “In order to be wealthy, you have to do business; in order to
attain fame you have to desire it for a long time and go the way that your
society dictates”. There are people who gain wealth and fame in very unusual
ways: it seems that fortune helps them, they seem not to do much, but they
reach all their goals. This is because goddess Shakti is helping them.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="apple-style-span">If a man obtains certain inner qualities, he can
be famous. If he obtains other qualities – he can be wealthy. Yet other
qualities help him have power and love. You have to understand that if you
don’t obtain some manifestations of Shakti, it means that you don’t have
certain quality, the chakra of certain energy is closed, it can’t receive and
transmit energy. You can do many things, but you will never be able to obtain
anything without opening this chakra, you will not receive corresponding energy
inside of you. After opening the chakra the energy can fill you!</span><br />
<br />
<span class="apple-style-span">Any energy (fear, anger, passion) has its
determined qualities, inner knowledge. It is not just a mad power that fills a
man. Fear can convince a man that he has to be afraid of everything in this
life, he sees danger everywhere. Anger can suggest an idea that everywhere he
has to see negative manifestation of what he doesn’t like. Passion can suggest
an idea that desires of his heart lead him everywhere, and he definitely has to
be with them. Any energy has certain information, individual qualities. If a
man is keenly intend on being wealthy, he will always see this energy of wealth
which he wants to receive. Herewith, he should never become a slave of his
wishes and ambitions; he has to understand that planets and stars communicate
with him through these wishes. There is nothing bad in these wishes – those are
merely manifestations of his ambition to obtain energy. Problems begin when a
man becomes enslaved by his wishes, when he doesn’t understand that wealth and
fame is the energy that is coming towards us from other planets; and we could
fill ourselves with this energy, the energy of Shakti and Holy Spirit.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"></span></span><span class="apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc;">Sometimes he starts to think that this is the way
of living, and in that moment he is making a great mistake and his desire
becomes suffering. He goes the wrong way and receives negative karma, because
of the desire of objects that are just material form of life. We always have an
aspiration for energies and never for certain forms. When you experience some
feeling, you think – “I want this person to love me. I want all people consider
me as good.” You have to feel this state, how it is. You have to imagine that
you have already reached it and you have to feel this state: “Yes, I feel the
state that I want to reach. Yes, it is just the state when this person will
love me, when all people will consider me as a good man.”</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #cccccc; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">
<br />
<span class="apple-style-span">When this state comes to you, try to feel in which
chakra it appears. Then, concentrate in this chakra and attract this state
towards you, fill yourself with it, because this state is pure energy. If you
really fill yourself with this energy, the first thing you will feel is
satisfaction. You finally have that which you wanted!</span><br />
<br />
<span class="apple-style-span">When you feel that you have already obtained what
you wanted, you will see that the person whom you wanted to love you for some
strange reason indeed loves you, that everybody considers you as a kind and
good man. So, what happened? The energy by itself attracts that which you want,
but at first, it is necessary for changes to take place within you.</span><br />
<span class="apple-style-span">Western businessmen already know about it and they
do the following: when they go to some meeting and they want to impress their
customer, they imagine that they are full of energy of consent, happiness,
charm and success. Being filled with this energy, they go to see their
customers, clients and start to charm and involve them with this energy.
Business, in this case, is more successful.</span><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><br />
<br />
<span class="apple-style-span">Can you imagine a businessman who goes to a
meeting with a gloomy, angry face trying to impress his customer? The customer,
of course, will go away very far from him in order to never meet him again.
But, when he sees a charming businessman filled with positive energy, a
businessman will not have any difficulty impressing the prospective customer,
influencing him. For this reason, you have to remember that when you feel
energy within you, all life goals start to attract things into your life and
your wishes materialize. When you don’t have such energy, you can’t realize any
of life goals. When you are filled with the energy, you have a different
feeling, you have already obtained that which you sought, and you don’t have to
be limited by forms, because you already have what you wanted to get. At least,
you will understand that you don’t have to desire money or fame in its physical
manifestation (in a form of coins or applause). In a mysterious way all these
goals will be reached, money will appear from somewhere, people will pay
attention to you and applaud you.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="apple-style-span">Why will all this happen? Because you are filled
with the energy, and the energy starts to attract material object to you. You
have to remember that if material things come to you or, vice versa, you can’t
reach something in your life, it means that you have (positive result) or you
don’t have (negative result) necessary energy for it. Energy, filling you from
inside, starts to work as a magnet, as a magnetic field, as a biological field.</span><br />
<span class="apple-style-span">Biological field has has certain qualities which
attract, like a magnet, all corresponding life forms. Thus, life form is like a
vessel, and energy fills this vessel, so all things happen this way. If there
is energy, the vessel will always be found. If you will desire life forms, you
never obtain necessary energy, so the vessel will not be filled. And, more than
likely, you will not even obtain the vessel.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Papyrus;"><span class="Apple-style-span">'Conscience' is again a term that needs explanation.</span></span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #eeeeee; margin: 0px; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</span></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"In ordinary life the concept 'conscience' is taken too
simply. As if we had a conscience. Actually the concept 'conscience' in the
sphere of the emotions is equivalent to the concept 'consciousness' in the
sphere of the intellect. And as we have no consciousness we have no conscience.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Consciousness is a state in which a man knows all at
once everything that he in general knows and in which he can see how little he
does know and how many contradictions there are in what he knows.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Conscience is a state in which a man feels all at once
everything that he in general feels, or can feel. And as everyone has within
him thousands of contradictory feelings which vary from a deeply hidden
realization of his own nothingness and fears of all kinds to the most stupid
kind of self-conceit, self-confidence, self-satisfaction, and self-praise, to
feel all this together would not only be painful but literally unbearable.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"If a man whose entire inner world is composed of contradictions
were suddenly to feel all these contradictions simultaneously within himself,
if he were to feel all at once that he loves everything he hates and hates
everything he loves; that he lies when he tells the truth and that he tells the
truth when he lies; and if he could feel the shame and horrorof it all, this
would be the state which is called 'conscience. A man cannot live in this
state; he must either destroy contradictions or destroy conscience. He cannot
destroy conscience, but if he cannot destroy it he can put it to sleep, that
is, he can separate by impenetrable barriers one feeling of self from another,
never see them together, never feel their incompatibility, the absurdity of one
existing alongside another.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"But fortunately for man, that is, for his peace and
for his sleep, this state of conscience is very rare. From early childhood
'buffers' begin to grow and strengthen in him, taking from him the possibility
of seeing his inner contradictions and therefore, for him, there is no danger
whatever of a sudden awakening. Awakening is possible only for those who seek
it and want it, for those who are ready to struggle with themselves and work on
themselves for a very long time and very persistently in order to attain it.
For this it is necessary to destroy 'buffers,' that is, to go out to meet all
those inner sufferings which are connected with the sensations of
contradictions. Moreover the destruction of 'buffers' in itself requires very
long work and a man must agree to this work realizing that the result of his
work will be every possible discomfort and suffering from the awakening of his
conscience.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"But conscience is the fire which alone can fuse all
the powders in the glass retort which was mentioned before and create the unity
which a man lacks in that state in which he begins to study himself.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"The concept 'conscience' has nothing in common with
the concept 'morality.'</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Conscience is a general and a permanent phenomenon.
Conscience is the same for all men and conscience is possible only in the
absence of 'buffers.' From the point of view of understanding the different
categories of man we may say that there exists the conscience of a man in whom
there are no contradictions. This conscience is not suffering; on the contrary
it is joy of a totally new character which we are unable to understand. But
even a momentary awakening of conscience in a man who has thousands of
different I's is bound to involve suffering. And if these moments of conscience
become longer and if a man does not fear them but on the contrary co operates
with them and tries to keep and prolong them, an element of very subtle joy, a
foretaste of the future 'clear consciousness' will gradually enter into these
moments.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"There is nothing general in the concept of 'morality.'
Morality consists of buffers. There is no general morality. What is moral in
China is immoral in Europe and what is moral in Europe is immoral in China.
What is moral in Petersburg is immoral in the Caucasus. And what is moral in
the Caucasus is immoral in Petersburg. What is moral in one class of society is
immoral in another and vice versa. Morality is always and everywhere an
artificial phenomenon. It consists of various 'taboos,' that is, restrictions,
and various demands, sometimes sensible in their</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">basis and sometimes having lost all meaning or never even
having had any meaning, and having been created on a false basis, on a soil of
superstition and false fears.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Morality consists of 'buffers.' And since 'buffers'
are of various kinds, and as the conditions of life in different countries and
in different ages or among different classes of society vary considerably, so
the morality created by them is also very dissimilar and contradictory. A
morality common to all does not exist. It is even impossible to say that there
exists any general idea of morality, for instance, in Europe. It is said
sometimes that the general morality for Europe is 'Christian morality.' But first
of all the idea of 'Christian morality' itself admits of very many different
interpretations and many different crimes have been justified by 'Christian
morality.' And in the second place modern Europe has very little in common with
'Christian morality,' no matter how we understand this morality.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"In any case, if 'Christian morality' brought Europe to
the war which is now going on, then it would be as well to be as far as
possible from such morality,"</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Many people say that they do not understand the moral
side of your teaching," said one of us. "And others say that your
teaching has no morality at all."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Of course not," said G. "People are very
fond of talking about morality. But morality is merely self-suggestion. What is
necessary is conscience. We do not teach morality. We teach how to find
conscience. People are not pleased when we say this. They say that we have no
love. Simply because we do not encourage weakness and hypocrisy but, on the
contrary, take off all masks. He who desires the truth will not speak of love
or of Christianity because he knows how far he is from these. Christian
teaching is for Christians. And Christians are those who live, that is, who do
everything, according to Christ's precepts. Can they who talk of love and
morality live according to Christ's precepts? Of course they cannot; but there
will always be talk of this kind, there will always be people to whom words are
more precious than anything else. But this is a true sign! He who speaks like
this is an empty man; it is not worth while wasting time on him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"Morality and conscience are quite different things.
One conscience can never contradict another conscience. One morality can always
very easily contradict and completely deny another. A man with 'buffers' may be
very moral. And 'buffers' can be very different, that is, two very moral men
may consider each other very immoral. As a rule it is almost inevitably so. The
more 'moral' a man is, the more 'immoral' does he think other moral people.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"The idea of morality is connected with the idea of
good and evil conduct. But the idea of good and evil is always different for
different</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">people, always subjective in man number one, number two, and
number three, and is connected only with a given moment or a given situation. A
subjective man can have no general concept of good and evil. For a subjective
man evil is everything that is opposed to his desires or interests or to his
conception of good.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"One may say that evil does not exist for subjective
man at all, that there exist only different conceptions of good. Nobody ever
does anything deliberately in the interests of evil, for the sake of evil.
Everybody acts in the interests of good, as he understands it. But everybody
understands it in a different way. Consequently men drown, slay, and kill one
another in the interests of good. The reason is again just the same, men's
ignorance and the deep sleep in which they live.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"This is so obvious that it even seems strange that
people have never thought of it before. However, the fact remains that they
fail to understand this and everyone considers his good as the only good and
all the rest as evil. It is naive and useless to hope that men will ever
understand this and that they will evolve a general and identical idea of
good."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"But do not good and evil exist in themselves apart
from man?" asked someone present.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"They do," said G., "only this is very far
away from us and it is not worth your while even to try to understand this at
present. Simply remember one thing. The only possible permanent idea of good
and evil for man is connected with the idea of evolution; not with mechanical
evolution, of course, but with the idea of man's development through conscious
efforts, the change of his being, the creation of unity in him, and the
formation of a permanent I.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"A permanent idea of good and evil can be formed in man
only in connection with a permanent aim and a permanent understanding. If a man
understands that he is asleep and if he wishes to awake, then everything that
helps him to awake will be good and everything that hinders him, everything
that prolongs his sleep, will be evil. Exactly in the same way will he
understand what is good and evil for other people. What helps them to awake is
good, what hinders them is evil. But this is so only for those who want to
awake, that is, for those who understand that they are asleep. Those who do not
understand that they are asleep and those who can have no wish to awake, cannot
have understanding of good and evil. And as the overwhelming majority of people
do not realize and will never realize that they are asleep, neither good nor
evil can actually exist for them.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"This contradicts generally accepted ideas. People are
accustomed to think that good and evil must be the same for everyone, and above
all that good and evil exist for everyone. In reality, however, good and evil
exist only for a few, for those who have an aim and who pursue that aim. Then
what hinders the pursuit of that aim is evil and what helps is good.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-US">"But
of course most sleeping people will say that they have an aim and that they are
going somewhere. The realization of the fact that he has no aim and that he is
not going anywhere is the first sign of the approaching awakening of a man or
of awakening becoming really possible for him. </span>Awakening begins when a
man realizes that he is going nowhere and does not know where to go.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span class="h21"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">In the Indian tradition the chakras are compared with the lotus flower.
The root of the lotus flower is under the water, in the ground, the stalk is
situated in the water and the cup is found in the air; it perceives the light
of the sun. Our chakras are arranged in a similar way. Their roots, glands and
organs are situated in the physical body, the stalks correspond to the nerves
and ethereal transmitters, the channels, the Chinese meridians, which are
located in the ethereal plane, but the cups are located in the astral plane,
they perceive the light from the sun. In the Indian tradition there are three
basic suns: Sat, Chit, Ananda, i.e. Will, Consciousness, Bliss. These suns
reflect one common absolute, united God, the Higher Logos. The sun Sat basically
illuminates the lower chakras and its energy falls on these cups and manifests
through the lower planes of being. The sun Chit, the sun of consciousness,
illuminates and saturates with energy the upper chakras and the sun Ananda, the
sun of the divine love, supplies the middle charkas with energy. Now let’s stop
directly on the chakras themselves, on the elements which correspond to these
chakras and on the organs which are fixed on the physical body of the chakra.
Let’s start with Muladhara.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #d9d9d9; font-weight: normal;">The chakras may be in three
states: closed, working and open. In the closed state chakras do not perceive the
energy of their plane, they do not receive any information and they do not
manifest themselves in any way; and the person is indifferent towards this
plane of being. If the chakra starts to work, a person starts to show interest,
he/she starts searching information about the corresponding people, starts
expressing activity on this plane of being. But he/she is also a consumer. When
a chakra is working, a person is a consumer of this type of information. When the
chakra is open, a person completely perceives the light of the source, the
light from the sun, the subtle plane, he/she becomes a creator, becomes a
source of the energy of this chakra. He/she starts to create and produce. He/she
is self-sufficient. </span></b></span></div>

In the closed position a regular person is apathetic and moves little. Such
people are not interested </span></b><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #d9d9d9; font-weight: normal;">in physical exercises. They
are sluggish, usually with a weakly developed muscular system. If the chakra
starts working, a necessity for movements will appear to such a person. You all
know such a necessity: in childhood it appears very often because Muladhara is
the only chakra which works in this period. And this age has been established
by evolution that the chakra may develop. And even till now sometimes after the
period of long sluggishness a desire may come to you to stretch, move, do
several exercises – it indicates the fact that the chakra starts working a
little bit. And if it works well, you have a constant necessity to move, a
constant necessity for certain physical activities; when this charka opens in
person, it means that this person completely controls his/her body; he feels it
well and he has great muscular sensation. The working chakra offers you the ability
to create your own style. In Ushu it is well –known that creating your own
style is the sign of a working chakra. </span></b></div>

sexual plane. If the chakra is closed, this person as a rule is not interested
in the opposite sex and has the following belief: “I am a being without a
gender and I am totally not interested in the opposite sex.” A person is
indifferent to this plane of being. Usually in the older age this person gets
hot. Since a lot of energy is used in the process of sexual life, a person
afterwards becomes as if indifferent to this plane. If the chakra starts
working, interest appears and a person attracts corresponding literature towards
himself, starts being interested in the opposite sex. This chakra usually
manifests itself in youth and starts working, which is built in by evolution as
well, and in this period a person shows most interest towards these planes of
being, and if chakra is open, a person becomes the source of the energy. He is
attractive, charming and seductive. A person possesses the corresponding
energy. It is even possible to receive the corresponding feelings just by
looking at him/her, being near. </span></b></div>

shy, closed in certain complexes. They have a bad contact with the world, they
do not like crowded places, and try to isolate themselves. It is not because
they are absorbed in themselves; they simply do not know how to express
themselves outside. If the chakra starts working, a person becomes active in the
social plane; he/she starts striving to manifest himself/herself as a manager,
he tries to lead people, become a leader. When it starts opening, such
corresponding feelings sometimes appears as a property of this chakra;
sometimes feelings of greed or similar feelings appear. It is important to
remember that these are all manifestations and there is no need to fear it if
such feelings appear. You must try to be aware of them in yourself. In the next
stage of opening we find entrepreneurs and business people corresponding to it.
As a rule, they are not attached to material values. But they are creating on
this plane, freely treating material values, without being attached to that. In
other words, their field of activities is like creativity. </span></b></div>

is dry, stale, not supportive about other people’s sufferings. If it is open,
the person is more gentle, elastic, soft and compassionate. If the chakra is
open, great bliss comes and it can be only experienced by yourself. A person,
who has been in Stalin’s camps, told us that there was a short, slim man. Life
conditions were very heavy there: they lived in huts, they had to work hard,
had little food. And when people came, they were tired all the time, started
arguments, fights, scandals, but that man came ad started praying; quietly
prayed by himself, and gradually people around started to calm down; those who
had some grief, offence or anger, slowly stopped, and even a calm state
approached them. Bliss came from that man, which simply calmed people around down
and took away all their worries, troubles and offences. Simply a calm state and
that is all. </span></b></div>

<b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #00b0f0;">Vishudha</span></b><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #d9d9d9; font-weight: normal;"> chakra – plane of
creativity. The expression of Vishudha is the inspirational excitement of the
creators, poets and artists. </span></b><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #d9d9d9; font-weight: normal;">People who truly manifest themselves
in this chakra, as a rule, do not get attached to their creations; they do not
create for money, they create for the process of creation itself. And it
saturates them. Maybe you have had such times of inspirational excitement, when
you wanted simply to do something, to draw or sing, simply sing, it did not
matter how, where, why; it did not matter how you would be judged, you simply
wanted to express yourself in this plane. This is a sign that this chakra
starts working, actively working. A closed Vishudha belongs to those people who
are not interested in aesthetics at all; they plunge into the material world,
they do not see the beauty of existence. If you tell them: “Look! What a nice tree!”,
they usually speak about something that you can eat from this tree, something
that you can possess. Such an approach is of the utilitarian people. If
Vishudha starts working, a person starts being interested in painting, art and literature;
the person is attracted to music. People of Vishudha plane do well at music,
because hearing is the prerogative of Vishudha; they feel and understand it
finely. If Vishudha is working, the person is a creator creating for the
purpose of creation, not for the results of it. </span></b></div>

Its state is that of concentrated will. A person of this plane, if his/her
chakra is closed, is completely deaf towards expressions of theoretical type,
he is not interested in information, i.e. he may perceive the world with
feelings, like, for example, a person of Vishudha or Anahata, but he is not
interested in mind conceptions and logical formations. Very often such people
are narrow-minded or rough, plunged into their lives with their feelings. If
this chakra starts working, a person is very interested in different theories,
conceptions, philosophical developments; he is searching books, he is searching
for information. And when this chakra opens, this person becomes the creator of
theories himself, he delivers the knowledge of the higher power, he creates and
writes books, he is able to explain the construction of the world. </span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #d9d9d9;"></span></div>
<div class="style13style12">
<b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #d9d9d9; font-weight: normal;">It is very little knowledge –
intuitive. As an example of good-working Ajna, we may mention the scientist
Timofey Resovskiy. Read the book “Zubr”. This person was manifesting himself through
Ajna, but he was attracting certain results. Thoughts came to him as he
describes in this book; he could start one thing, a thought would come to him
he did not care at all about completion, awards, and he moved to another thing.
But if we take a regular scientist, who is motivated by Manipura, by basic
social wealth, he writes essays for receiving a phD; such people cannot be
called the people of Ajna. </span></b></div>

Sahasrara is intuition. The correct state of it is renounced wisdom. It is very
difficult to describe </span></b><b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #d9d9d9; font-weight: normal;">Sahasrara chakra because
all mental formations, all indications end on the plane of Ajna. It is the
plane of verbal communication and it goes further to intuition and sensations;
if we have a look at its expression in the outer world, there can be a glimpse
of foretelling in it; if Sahasrara is not working, a person may completely lack
presentiment, understanding intuition, i.e. a person may learn something by
heart and tell it back well but he is not able to get to the essence of things.
It is also rather difficult for such a person to apply the knowledge in
practice; as a rule, this person is a scheme-type person: he learns a scheme
and acts according to the scheme, and does not catch the connection between the
knowledge and practice; it is very difficult to draw any parallels for him.
When the chakra starts working, such a person starts having a glimpse of
intuition, revelation of the consciousness, discoveries. He finds the essence
of being in a regular, popular, well-read truth. People with an open Sahasrara
are great yogi possessing higher knowledge about the laws of this world. </span></b></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Let’s face it. Everyone would like to be healthy. Yet, we only know
external or superficial methods to do it, we cannot really achieve this goal.
In order to attain complete HEALTH (this involves not only the physical body,
but also the emotions, the thinking processes, our relationships, etc) we need
to clean our body totally. Cleansing is the foundation of the healthy lifestyle
pyramid.<br />
We can give you a system that will help you to purify yourself, and to detoxify
totally both your body and soul! During these practices for the detoxification
of the organism, we will eliminate the main causes that do not allow your vital
body to function normally and, in this way, we boost the regenerative ability
of your organism. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">If we only treated ourselves with medications and injections, and did
not clean the organs and their systems, we would end up feeling better, and
yet, this sense of well being would only be temporary as, afterwards, we would find
ourselves in a worse situation.<br />
Healing depends on how you organize the work with yourself. </span></div>
<div style="color: #cccccc;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Precisely this work provides
the solid basis for your new healthy lifestyle.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
It is important to bear in mind that:</span></b></div>

<br /></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">1.<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span>The energetic field is the foundation
of a person’s life and health and, therefore, any damage to it (often caused by
psychological tension) will have a strong effect on the quality of this
person’s health. This is why, at the beginning, it is important to clean
the whole energetic field. You can learn different energetic practices that
will help you to release stress and inner tension, and will protect you from
various influences;</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 18pt; text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">2.<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span>Nearly 60-70% of the human body is made
of liquids: blood, lymph, inter-cellular and intra-cellular fluids, which must be
cleaned from all toxins. In order to achieve optimal healing effects it is necessary to cleans
and normalize the fluid medium of the whole organism; </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 18pt; text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">3.<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span>As one’s diet is the main source of
contamination of the organism, those who do not eat are not contaminated; </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 18pt; text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">4.<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span>An incorrect and unnatural diet
damages the Large Intestine precisely because this organ absorbs the largest
amount of liquids. When a process of putrefaction and fermentation occurs
in it, its toxic matter enters the blood
and, later, invades and poisons the whole organism;</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 18pt; text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">5.<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span>As the toxins in the organic liquids obstruct
and decrease a person’s level of vital energy, the cleansing of the Large
Intestine is the most important purification practice, because this helps the
cleansing of one’s entire organism and
energetic field;</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 18pt; text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">6.<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span>This, however, should be followed by
the cleansing and fortification of the Kidneys, the other organ that ends up
suffering greatly from the blood’s toxic substances; </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 18pt; text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">7.<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">
</span>In addition, as all the blood from the gastric tract (with or
without contaminants) passes through the Liver, during one’s lifetime,
this organ becomes so polluted that it stops working normally. This is when
‘portal hypertension’, a condition leading to the stagnation of the poisoned
blood and the slowdown of the functions of all the organs, appears. At this
point, it is important to CLEAN THE LIVER. </span><br />

cleansing of the Large Intestine renews the quality of the blood, which stops

<span lang="EN-GB">Only a little over a decade ago, <b><span style="color: #660066;">Kargan Kenesh</span></b> (his names in the ancient language of Altai means <b>‘<i><span style="color: #006600;">Wisdom Tree</span></i>’</b>) could have be regarded as an ordinary ‘good’ man, a psychiatrist dedicated to the well being of his patients who, disillusioned by the limitations of conventional medicine, had started seeking alternative ways to help human beings to overcome sufferings, disease and spiritual sterility. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 14.4pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 9pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">By no means an open and free highway, his path led him away from conventional medicine and into the realms of a deeper and inner search for personal change and transformation. The guide and teacher, who help him to turn his life from ‘ordinary’ to ‘extraordinary’ is one of the greatest Masters of our time: the Great Master of Altai. He patiently and lovingly instructed and guided him, teaching him to transform theoretical spirituality into experiential and living consciousness.</span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="font-family: inherit; margin-left: 9pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-style: normal;">This involved undergoing an adventurous and breath taking process of self - transformation and self-discovery, a process that gradually helped him to shed off his ‘old skin’ - the harmful and hampering influences of the dictates of personality and conventions - to be reborn as a healer, guide, advisor in all aspects of a person’s life and, most of all, as a spiritual teacher able to use an array of methods coming from all mystic traditions of the planet to help people.</span></div>

He also runs a specific program for the ‘</span><span lang="EN-GB">Harmonious Development of Children’</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-style: normal;"> with summer camps held all over the world. </span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="font-family: inherit; margin-left: 9pt; text-align: justify;">
