THE PATH OF LIGHT by Christian O'Brien
......Quotations from the back cover...... Souls come forth on Earth to execute the work of their ancestors - The Egyptian Book of the Dead. It
is necessary that they should find the Initiation which is in
the Books of Jeu, and which I caused Enoch to write in the Garden
of Eden when I spoke to him in the Building of Knowledge and
the Building of Life by Christian and Barbara Joy O'Brien
Without freedom of will, there is no humanity; freedom of conscience is both the birth and breath of manhood; the essence of the soul is will - Basic Druidic doctrine. It is not possible to comprehend these mysteries of creation till we have crossed the frontiers of mind and maya (the two lower spiritual regions), and one should leave them alone - Yes souls who are permanent denizens of these regions (the two lower ones) sometimes incarnate themselves in this world in accordance with the scheme of creation and, after doing their work, go back to their place - Huzur Maharaj Charan Singh Ji - Light on Sant Mat - p. 357 - Sant Mat is not a religion. The aim is free thinking and direct contact with God through meditation. In a BBC John Freeman Face to Face interview in 1959 Freeman asked Carl Jung: Do you now believe in God? - Jung replied Now? Difficult to say I know I don't believe I know. - Carl G. Jung was a leading Gnostic scholar. He wrote Seven Sermons to the Dead, using the name of the great Gnostic teacher Basilides. What the Gnostic documents reveal to us is the spiritual attitude of those who were the most tragically sensitive to the problems of human destiny - Whence do I come? - Who am I? - What is this material world? - Where shall I go after the end of this life? - Jean Doresse in the introduction of his book The Secret Books of the Egyptian Gnostics. The introduction into the bosom of Christianity of all the cosmological and theosophical speculations, which had formed the most considerable part of the ancient religions of the Orient, and had also been adopted by the Neo-Platonists of the West - Definition of Gnosticism by Matter in his Histoire Critique du Gnosticisme (1828)
