SEEK YE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRANSCENDENT!
Erle Frayne D. Argonza
Seekers, freethinkers, all you potential Lightworkers,
seek ye the Light of the Transcendent! Seek for it everywhere, but of all
spaces, please search for it in your inner space. For within you resides your
true self, your Higher Self, waiting for you to unite with it in the most
sublime union you’d ever experience.
Being thus united with your Higher Self, thou will
thenceforth be merged with your God-Self, nay merged with God Almighty in Shis
(his/her) resplendent glory. Thus, seek ye this Path towards your
self-realization, your mutation from a rough mineral material into the finest
piece of jewelry, your path towards God Realization.
To clarify first of all: Who’s a Seeker? Isn’t anybody
who believes in God or the transcendent realm a Seeker? Doesn’t the Hallelujah
God crowd constitute the seekers that we Lightworker mystics speak of?
Fellows on Earth, if you delimit your actions to blind
faith, blind obedience to dogma presented by your patriarchs, bishops and
priests, and most specially if you like unto the great mass of herds couldn’t
conceive of salvation without being pushed into such an option by Fear Complex,
than you are no Seeker but a mere Believer or Devotee. Devotees are better served
by their institutional masters, for they couldn’t conceive of attaining the
Path beyond institutional means, beyond attunements to mass consciousness or
‘herd instinct’ (to echo Nietszche).
Anybody who aspires to the transcendent height by
individual attainment, by going beyond dogma, by boldly searching for higher
knowledge through a combination of methods, by synthesizing philosophy, science
and the arts toward a higher form of self-understanding and knowledge of the
higher realms, and by a further synthesis of material science and spiritual
science towards self-attainment, is a noble and true Seeker.
Using Jung’s thought constructs, the one who attains
the highest expanse of individuation, the one who is able to detach from mass
consciousness and rise above the constrictions of the latter, and therefore the
one who is open to experiment on a diversity of methods and absorption of
teachings from various teachers, is a Seeker.
We can formulate the evolutionary trajectory thus: one
manifests in primordial antiquity as a Devotee (all were born believers), who
then evolves into a Seeker through many sojourns in the dense spheres, and then
attains a heightened awareness characteristic of a Mystic, and then graduates
to Master level (master of wisdom), and then moves on to become an Ascended
Master or Christed One, until finally one becomes an Avatar or God-incarnate.
To simplified model is shown below:
DevoteeàSeekeràMysticàMasteràAscended MasteràAvatar
What a long, arduous sojourn, one may quip. Indeed, too
long a soul evolutionary process, but optimistically doable. The Gautama Buddha
is among the exemplars of those who proved the possibility of attaining the
highest level of awakenings as a matter of Will-to-transcend and
self-attainment. By way of such a colossal feat, it has been demonstrated that
not only is the process doable, but also that the timeframe for liberation can
be shortened should one practice the science of yoga most determinatively.
It is now the era of post-modernity, of the Aquarian
Age, and in this era, Fixed Idea is dangerous and anathema to growth.
Therefore, any determined Seeker must deconstruct old modalities of thinking
and behaving, trash those methods that he/she may have instinctively followed.
Such as to think of science as purely material science, or to think of science
as antinomy of the spirit, or to fix spirituality to religion which is the
‘path’ better fit for the herds of devotees/believers.
There is no fixed Path, the trek to the heights is a
‘pathless one’ as Krishnamurti claimed almost a century ago. What is important
is one must actively seek for the height rather than follow blind faith and
consign oneself to believing. Blind beliefs, blind obedience, blind faith
entrap one in the hovels of ignorance, and no one attains higher awakenings by
systematic ignorance and gross contortions of truths through dogma.
So, Noble One, a Path nobly awaits you, a path that is
individualized, customized for you based on your psyche and soul-type. Seek for
that path yourself, let no external dominating force do this for you, for only
you and no one else can find your viable path.
When you are ready, a teacher appears in the path who
can be a companion in the seemingly desolate journey. And no better teacher
could be there other than your own Higher Self or your Inner Guide (‘guardian
angel’ of Catholics). Lucky enough if you can find physical gurus, for in a
world populated by billions of souls we all confront a scarcity of gurus. But
everybody has an Inner Guide, the Wise Old Self of you residing in the higher
dimensions. And it is this Guide who can help you a lot by pointing to you the
possible courses of action in your journey.
No Guide or teacher will ever impose thoughts on you,
remember this always. For you are a Free Will being, a constituent of the human
lifestream, and you can always disagree with offered options and lessons. It is
always you who should make the final choice, while your Guide, out of shis
(his/her) genuine concern for you, lovingly offers options that you can consider.
The Guide is not your personal Tyrant but your co-partner in your travail.
Reflect on this clear enough, dear Fellow. If you
disagree and you’d still stick to fixed ideas of spirituality as a churchly
matter, than go ahead and go this way like the billions of evolutionary
laggards and devotees around us. But if you think of this option as a clear,
viable choice, than right at this moment, your Guide feels elated for you and
will reach out to you in a more intense manner. Being in such state, you are ready
for the Path, and you will see signs yourself that you have a Companion of
Light along the way who is no other than your Inner Guide.
Decide in a whole-hearted manner, make no half-hearted
decisions, for in your indecisions the Light cannot flow unto you. The grey
energies produced by your indecisions and fears of going thru the Path will
block higher Light or Spirit from flowing through you, even as you attract
instead negative beings from the dark domains of the astral plain to misguide
you and enchain you in more ignorance and perpetual incarceration in the
existential grounds of a meaningless life.
So, dear Fellow, if you seek the Path whole-heartedly,
make no postponement, decide soon enough as your Light Companion awaits your
sweet, noble decision. Trust your heart in the matter, for in thy heart resides
your soul which is your inner companion. Move on, please move one, trust your
soul, listen to the voice of your Inner Guide, and you’re there in your Path.
God Bless you in your Path!
