![]() Ninguno Actualmente no hay Conversaciones sobre este libro. PRACTICAL OCCULTISM As some of the letters in the CORRESPONDENCE of this month show, there are many people who are looking for practical instruction in Occultism. It becomes necessary, therefore, to state once for all: — (a) The essential difference between theoretical and practical Occultism; or what is generally known as Theosophy on the one hand, and Occult science on the other, and: — (b) The nature of the difficulties involved in the study of the latter. It is easy to become a Theosophist. Any person of average intellectual capacities, and a leaning toward the metaphysical; of pure, unselfish life, who finds more joy in helping his neighbor than in receiving help himself; one who is ever ready to sacrifice his own pleasures for the sake of other people; and who loves Truth, Goodness and Wisdom for their own sake, not for the benefit they may confer — is a Theosophist. But it is quite another matter to put oneself upon the path which leads to the knowledge of what is good to do, as to the right discrimination of good from evil; a path which also leads a man to that power through which he can do the good he desires, often without even apparently lifting a finger. Moreover, there is one important fact with which the student should be made acquainted. Namely, the enormous, almost limitless, responsibility assumed by the teacher for the sake of the pupil. From the Gurus of the East who teach openly or secretly, down to the few Kabalists in Western lands who undertake to teach the rudiments of the Sacred Science to their disciples — those western Hierophants being often themselves ignorant of the danger they incur — one and all of these "Teachers" are subject to the same inviolable law. From the moment they begin really to teach, from the instant they confer any power — whether psychic, mental or physical — on their pupils, they take upon themselves all the sins of that pupil, in connection with the Occult Sciences, whether of omission or commission, until the moment when initiation makes the pupil a Master and responsible in his turn. .. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

IMPORTANTE PARA LOS ESTUDIANTES
Hay muchos que ansían instrucciones
prácticas de Ocultismo; y por lo tanto, es
necesario dejar sentado de una vez para
siempre:
I.° La esencial diferencia entre el
Ocultismo teórico o Teosofía y el Ocutismo
práctico o Ciencias ocultas.
2.° La índole de las dificultades que
entraña el estudio del Ocultismo práctico.
Es muy fácil ser teósofo, pues puede
serlo cualquiera de medianas facultades
intelectuales, aficionado a la metafísica,
de conducta pura e inegoísta, que
mayormente se goza en prestar que en
recibir auxilio, que siempre está dispuesto
a privarse de su gusto en bien de los
demás, y...
