Ich bin Liliane

AW: Ich bin Liliane

Ich hoffe, irgendwann eine Stufe erreicht zu haben, auf der ich nicht mehr so viel zweifeln muss und anderen mehr Antworten geben kann, als ich Fragen habe.

Hallo Liliane !
Das wird hoffentlich nie passieren. Wer glaubt, mehr Antworten als Fragen zu haben, belügt sich selbst.

Manchmal sieht mein Weltbild ganz klar strukturiert aus, dann wieder fällt alles wie ein Kartenhaus in sich zusammen.

Und genau so ist es auch gut. Wenn du konsequent den Weg der Erkenntnis gehst, wird dies für dich dein Schicksal für das gesamte Leben sein. Für jede Tür, die geöffnet wird, erscheinen mehrere verschlossene. Jede Antwort birgt weitere Fragen...

Robert Bowen, ein Schüler Blavtskys hat das einmal sehr schön formuliert:

H.P. Blavatsky. smiled and nodded. One must not be a fool (she said) and drive oneself into the madhouse by attempting too much at first. The brain is the instrument of waking consciousness, and every conscious mental picture formed means change and destruction of the atoms of the brain. Ordinary intellectual activity moves on well beaten paths in the brain, and does not compel sudden adjustments and destructions in its substance. But this new kind of mental effort calls for something very different -- the carving out of new "brain paths," the ranking in different order of the little brain lives. If forced injudiciously it may do serious physical harm to the brain.
This mode of thinking (she says) is what the Indians call Jnana Yoga. As one progresses in Jnana Yoga one finds conceptions arising which though one is conscious of them, one cannot express nor yet formulate into any sort of mental picture. As time goes on these conceptions will form into mental pictures. This is a time to be on guard and refuse to be deluded with the idea that the new found and wonderful picture must represent reality. It does not. As one works on one finds the once admired picture growing dull and unsatisfying, and finally fading out or being thrown away. This is another danger point, because for the moment one is left in a void without any conception to support one, and one may be tempted to revive the cast-off picture for want of a better to cling to. The true student will, however, work on unconcerned, and presently further formless gleams come, which again in time give rise to a larger and more beautiful picture than the last. But the learner will now know that no picture will ever represent the Truth. This last splendid picture will grow dull and fade like the others. And so the process goes on, until at last the mind and its pictures are transcended and the learner enters and dwells in the World of NO FORM, but of which all forms are narrowed reflections.
The True Student of The Secret Doctrine is a Jnana Yogi, and this Path of Yoga is the True Path for the Western student. It is to provide him with sign posts on that Path that the Secret Doctrine has been written.
(Later note: -- I have read over this rendering of her teaching to H.P. Blavatsky. asking if I have got her aright. She called me a silly Dumskull to imagine anything can ever be put in words aright. But she smiled and nodded as well, and said I had really got it better than anyone else ever did, and better than she could do it herself).

Herzlich(es) Beileid... öhm...Willkommen, in einem Forum, wo Weltbilder so individuell sind wie die Leute hier...die Wahrheit willst du erfahren, dann lies hier besser nix..

Richtig!

Glaub' uns nicht
