Stay With the Basics – Adi Da Samraj





 

Be
aware that without having become truly responsible for the
conventional reactive disposition of the body-mind you
should not entertain the consideration of the esoteric
matters. You must stay with the basics.

Just because your mind may
comprehend an esoteric principle does not mean you’ve
realized anything about it. You may like the idea of
applying esoteric principles to your understanding of
spiritual matters, but it is complete nonsense. Because you
are not responsible, not truly human you will simply be
using knowledge as a way of reinforcing the self-possessed
motives of your ordinary and unillumined life. This is one
reason since ancient times esoteric practices were not
introduced to those who did not demonstrate a level of
adaptation at the foundational levels. It was only when
foundational levels of practices were established that
esoteric practices were introduced into the spiritual
process.
