The Secret initiation
opens an editorial series of writings which are smaller
in size, however, they have a precious and refined
content. Therefore it was entitled Gems. In this
writing, the author illustrates where the reader should
look for the roots of failure in spiritual efforts: in
the inclinations, which, as the unconscious driving
forces, influence the manifestations of his or her
instinctive and emotional nature and, by that also, his
or her thinking and behaviour. A full control over the
inclinations can only be attained by an uncompromising
constant self-improvement by means of an analytical
self-observation, which will, in the end, reveal the
inclinations from the depths of the subconsciousness and
by that enable one to control them. The Secret
initiation emphasises the method of a correctly
carried out introversion, leading to a positive
spiritual development. This method is described in
detail in other writings of Květoslav Minařík.
Excerpt:
If you are an idealist who would like to benefit the
world, you must as well be a realist, who has to first
help themself. Only then you will recognise, whether
people wish you to help them, or they don’t wish so.
When someone imposes upon the world goodness according
to their own ideas, it can be classified as craziness.
If some organised group imposes it upon the world, it
can be perceived as a crime committed on the humankind.
If someone wants to do good to the world or dispense to
the world some ideas about goodness, they have to obtain
initiation to, at all, understand, how does it work with
the goodness. I am stating right at the beginning that
an initiation can bring everyone to the knowledge that
no one wishes their help and goodness. People only wish
to satisfy their curiosity and desire for sensory
enjoyments and only rarely is there someone interested
in a method of how to remove all suffering. In general,
every individual, whether he or she is bright or stupid,
educated or uneducated or even absolutely stupid, has
their philosophy of life always ready, already because
of the fact that they inherited it as a property of
their own physical birth. Due to this reason they are
always only interested in confirmation of this
philosophy of theirs. A mystic thus has to be devoid of
all personal inclinations in order to be able to behave
impartially and not to behave for their own benefit even
on an subconscious level, even though with a thought of
good of others. |
