Answers from the books of Samael Aun Weor
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 Lord of the Heart, the Inner Master is the Intimate. The Inner Master is far beyond the will and much far beyond the Consciousness.
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 complicated.
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 just a few ones are those who find it”.
