"...each person is a consciousness in the middle of their chakras. Each person is a consciousness as Christ is; each person is an Arjuna, struggling to overcome the lower nature (Bhagavad-Gita)."
"<7>Who are these people who are in their
first
chakra, or those who for
the first time open their eyes more about the realities of their
environment and the goal of their lives?
<8>These are the poor in
spirit (Matthew 5:3) who find more and more
evil things going on around them.
<9>They try to find real guidance ("apostles") in order to be
led to the truth. Instead they find that all those who consider
themselves to be teachers and guides are liars, and these teachers
and guides are as lost as themselves.
<10>That is why the person becomes
discouraged because he sees all the plays people engage in to get by
in life. Therefore, he or she sets out to search for the truth.
<11>That was why the yogis left the regular life and isolated
themselves to find the truth in mountains or jungles, because they
felt the truth could not be found by following men.
<12>That is why the first symbol in our
Sign ()
is related to the teachings of the Far East (Mystical
Paths), which work to awaken or raise the latent consciousness
from the first
chakra to higher
chakras.
<13>However, as long as man is lost in the
attraction of the external world and gets along with the play of
society, he will not even search to find what the real truth is.
<14>But when he finds that all the guidance he used to follow is
lost, then he will start to search his own Soul in order to find the
truth."
