LEO/ by VILLAGE OF CONSCIUOSNESS/DHARMA+1UNIVERSITY There are two men in us that live in eternal struggle: one against the other From the 23 of July to the 22 of August. Rules: Heart and Spinal Column Metal: Gold Stone: Diamond Perfume: Incense Plant: Sunflower Flower: Poppy Planet: The Sun Color: Golden Element: Fire Day: Sunday Key Word: Life Ruler: Michael Beloved disciple: Today we enter the constellation of Leo. Leo is the heart of the zodiac and the throne of the Sun. Leo is the dwelling of the sons of the flame, whom the Bible calls “thrones”. Leo is the house of the Kumaras. Leo is the house of the Sun and governs our heart. Just as the Sun is the heart of the solar system, so is the human heart the sun of our organism also. The forces that descend and those that rise from the earth, in the form of a triangle, meet at the heart, mingle and become redeemed, forming the seal of Solomon. The heart is the sacred chamber of the blessed mother Goddess of the world. The ineffable princess of the Kundalini, “Hadit”, the winged serpent of the desert, reaches as far as there. The cross of initiation is given to us in the heart-temple. The kundalini is the laboratory where the heart works. The fires of the heart serve as control to the fires of the spine. The Kundalini rises according to the merits of the heart. The Kundalini evolves and progresses within the aura of the Solar Logos. The heart is the most sensitive organ of our organism. The most remote seismic movements of the world are registered within the fine membranes of the heart. The heart is the sacred temple of the Inner Master. The Inner Master speaks to us in the form of hunches. If man obeyed those hunches, he would live without problems. Man rebels against the voice of the Inner Master and creates problems for himself. There are two men in us that live in eternal struggle: one against the other. There is a celestial man and an animal man in us. The animal man wants to solve things on his own and act as he likes best. The celestial man talks in the form of hunches; his voice is the voice of silence and his actions are always upright; and create happiness. The animal man is the mind that resides in the head with its seven portals... The celestial man is the Inner Master. The Master commands and the mind does not obey him; it wants to solve everything on its own and act as it likes best, without at all taking the orders of the Internal Master into consideration. As a consequence of this, pain and bitterness, appear which are the result of erred action and useless efforts. Happy are those who act with the voice of silence, they will never lack bread, shelter and refuge. They shall live without problems and will have bliss. Coachman, dominate the untamed colt of the mind properly, so that it will not cast your cart to the abyss. The Inner Master is the divine witness, seated on the throne of the heart-temple. The inner essence of the Master is absolute happiness and limitless omniscience. The Inner Master is “simple’. Everything else is compound. Eternal Nature keeps changing, but the Inner Master is immutable and because of this, the Master can free himself from Nature. Nature casts its shadows on the Master, but the Inner Master is beyond all shadow. When the Soul fuses with the Inner Master, then it becomes free from Nature and enters the supreme happiness of absolute existence. That state of happiness is called Nirvana. One arrives at Nirvana through millions of births and deaths, but is also reached by means of a shorter path, the path of “initiation”. The Initiate reaches Nirvana in one single life if he so wants it. “Narrow is the door and narrow the path that leads to light; and very few are those who find it”. Seven initiatic sanctuaries exist in the astral plane and if the disciple wants to progress in this path, he has to seek a Master. “When the disciple is ready, the Master appears’. “Be careful of false prophets”. Do not accept external Masters in the physical plane. Learn to leave in the astral body and when you are skillful in the astral, choose an authentic Master of Greater Mysteries of the White Brotherhood and consecrate to him, the most absolute devotion and the most profound respect. You should walk with much care in the physical world, since there are many false prophets. Do not accept external orders from anyone; thou should only obey the orders that “we” give thee in the astral plane. There are many initiates of lesser mysteries in the physical plane, good and sincere, but they have not yet fused with their Inner Master. They are also “living dead” and consequently, have serious and very grievous errors which can lead the student astray and even make him fall into the abyss. When we want to make ourselves known to a student in the physical plane, we will give him “signs” and proofs in the astral plane, but “be careful”, live alert and vigilant as the guard in times of war and deceiving wonders. “Be simple like the dove and shrewd as a serpent”. “Be meek and humble, but when it regards the truth, be strong in thought, word and deed”. The higher thou art, the more terrible the fall shall be. Be careful then. from falling, because the disciple who allows himself to fall, then has to struggle much to recover what has been lost. These two rules are very simple, but of terrible importance During the sign of Leo, we should act on the heart, through meditation. Inner meditation consists of three phases: 1 Perfect Concentration 2 Perfect Meditation 3 Perfect Samadhi One has to concentrate the mind on the Inner Master. One has to meditate on the majesty of the Inner Master. One has to talk with the Inner Master, until one hears his voice and converses ineffable things with HIM... This is called Samadhi. Concentration is one technique. On page 17, in “The Voice of the Silence”, H.P.B. says the following and I quote: “Before the soul can hear, the image (man) has to become as deaf to roarings as to whispers, to cries and bellowing elephants as to the silvery buzzing of the golden fire fly”. “Before the soul can comprehend and may remember, she must unto the Silent Speaker be united just as the form to which the clay is modelled, is first united with the potter’s mind”. “For then the soul will hear, and will remember”. “And then to the inner ear speak - The Voice of the Silence”. You should control all possible reactions of the mind before the objects and sounds of the physical world. The Inner Master is not the mind. The Inner Master is not emotion; the Inner Master is not the will; the Inner Master is not the conscience nor the intelligence. The Inner Master is the divine witness. The Inner Master is the Being. The Inner Master is the Inner-Self; therefore, while sunk in deep inner meditation, say: “NOT THIS, NOT THIS, NOT THIS. I AM HE, I AM HE, I AM HE”. Be demanding with thy Inner Master, he should teach thee the most ineffable things. If thy concentration is intense, then thou shall penetrate in the marvels of the cosmos and will learn things which are impossible to describe with words. Vocalize daily the vowel “O” during this sign of Leo, to awaken the heart chakra. A secret planet from which emanates the life of all that throbs in the physical plane, exists between the Sun and Mercury. The blue hierarchies of the Sun are the fountain of all life. The natives of Leo are energetic and generous at the same time, magnanimous, mystics and authoritarians. They have a tendency towards anger and should struggle much to dominate that defect. Leo, being the throne of the Sun, announces fortune and high position. The occult significance of Leo is Intuition. Gold is the metal of this sign and diamond, its stone. The natives of Leo are authoritative and want to command only. Leo brings some journeys. The natives of Leo suffer a great deal morally.
