The World At Your Feet

Why are the lives of the sages filled with miracles?

Whoever opens his mind to Truth and labors over it day and night, he is the awakened mind of the cosmos--for through him the Infinite Light enters this world. And so, nature bows to him, the angels wait upon him and everything is arranged to serve his mission.

Faith & Experience

Faith is not the result of experience.

On the contrary, faith is an act that comes from within andcreates experience.

Things happen because you trust they will.

Normal Miracles

These things people call amazing coincidences, synchronicity, small miracles -- this is the way the world is supposed to work.

It is only that the world is in slumber, like a sleeping person who does not see, does not hear, does not speak -- so that nothing distinguishes his head from his feet, his heart from his brain. So too, the world lies deep in a dream where anything is possible, but nothing seems to have a goal. Where only chaos reigns.

It takes only one person to open his eyes, his ears, his mind and his heart and the objects of this world fall into place and work together as a single whole. Synchronized. As they were meant to be.

Miraculous Failure

An open miracle is somewhat of a disappointment for God.

Once all is said and done, He got His way only by ignoring the norms of our lower world, by breaking His own rules. 

If He can perform miracles only by bullying Nature, He may as well concede that our world is a place the Infinite Light does not belong.

So He also makes another sort of miracle-the sort that blends seamlessly into the order of things below. 

These are impossible miracles: They break no rules, but change everything.

In truth, they are the most awesome of miracles-these that reveal the Infinite unrestrained within the nature of everyday things.

Laughing

"Laughing does not necessarily mean being carefree, frivolous and
irresponsible. Laughing can actually have a more beneficial
effect on the mind than wearing a serious, reflective expression,
which many think makes them look wise. This is because laughter
has a lively energy that nourishes the brain.
Laughing also helps you to get back on your feet, to bounce
back. It’s true that everyone’s life has events that are no
laughing matter to begin with, and it is normal to be worried and
upset about them initially, but if you get used to seeing the
funny side of certain situations it makes it easier for you not
to become overwhelmed. So, never miss a chance to laugh, for it
is a powerful way of maintaining your equanimity and easing
situations. Just because you have reasons for being upset, sad
and discouraged does not mean you should be willing to remain in
that state. "

With everything you undertake, try to begin well

"With everything you undertake, try to begin well, for the way the
process unfolds will depend on what you put in place at the
beginning. Yes, but to put a good beginning in place you must
already have been able to finish properly what came before. This
rule applies in all areas of life.
When you begin a task, try to give it the same attention, the
same care, all the way through. Also when you form new
friendships, new relationships, stay aware, so that what began
with smiles, warm words, gifts and embraces does not end in
confrontations. For, anything that ends badly affects future
encounters and undertakings."

Be aware that the spoken word is powerful and effective

"Adults claim to love their children and be concerned about their
upbringing, but they do not always know how to behave with them,
and in particular they are not careful in the way they speak to
them. So many parents and educators constantly tell them they are
useless, stupid, and so on, and the children, influenced by
suggestion, as if hypnotized, after a while really do become
stupid and incompetent.
Be aware that the spoken word is powerful and effective, and
what parents say to their children can affect them badly, block
them and frighten them. To make them comply or keep quiet, is it
really necessary to threaten them with the wolf, the policeman,
the devil or who knows what? These children could well feel under
threat and insecure for the rest of their lives; this could
explain certain neuroses in adults. There are many things adults
need to correct about their attitude toward children; otherwise,
what they call an upbringing will really only be a bringing down."

La science initiatique nous enseigne que Dieu n'a pas créé l'homme

La science initiatique nous enseigne que Dieu n'a pas créé l'homme ; il a seulement rendu cette création possible et c'est à chacun de réaliser cette pos-sibilité en actes, de même qu'une cerise contient en elle-même l'image du cerisier qu'elle peut devenir ainsi que l'image de tous les cerisiers qui peuvent par la suite sortir d'elle. Le cerisier a mis dans la cerise la vie absolue en possibilité, mais seule la cerise peut réaliser cette vie en actes. L'homme possède en lui l'image de son Père céleste et de sa Mère divine et c'est cette image qu'il doit réaliser en actes par le développement de ses facultés et par la maîtrise de sa vie et de son avenir.

Reason & Faith

Don't imagine that you can escape faith.

Every science, every system of logic, has its axioms.

Reason cannot move one step forward without some assumption upon which to base itself.

Le sublime est au-delà des mots

Le sublime est au-delà des mots, du langage, de l'écrit. Il est silence, plénitude, unité et il demeure éternellement, emplissant tout de sa splendeur et de sa présence magique. Il est absolument tout, tout en restant lui-même.

Un homme seul ou une femme seule ne peuvent pas donner naissance à un enfant

"Un homme seul ou une femme seule ne peuvent pas donner naissance
à un enfant ; pour cela ils doivent être deux. Mais, par la
parole, chacun séparément peut devenir créateur grâce aux deux
principes masculin et féminin qui sont contenus dans sa bouche :
la langue et les deux lèvres. Tous les Évangiles ne sont que
l’illustration de cette vérité. C’est grâce à la toute-puissance
du verbe que Jésus a fait des miracles. Il a dit au paralytique :
« Lève-toi, prends ton lit et marche ! » et le paralytique a
marché. Pour ressusciter Lazare, il s’est rendu devant son
tombeau et a crié d’une voix forte : « Lazare, sors ! » Pour
ressusciter la fille de Jaïre, il lui a pris la main et a dit :
« Enfant, lève-toi ! » Quand il guérissait des possédés, il
ordonnait au démon : « Sors de cet homme ! » Quand il a guéri un
lépreux, il a dit : « Je le veux, sois pur ! » Lorsqu’il a apaisé
la tempête, il a dit à la mer : « Silence, calme-toi ! »
La façon même dont notre corps est construit contient tout un
enseignement sur les deux principes masculin et féminin. Il nous
apprend que c’est seulement en bas, dans le plan physique, que
les deux principes sont séparés : physiquement, sauf cas tout à
fait exceptionnels, un être humain ne peut être qu’homme ou
femme. Mais, en haut, dans le plan divin, les deux principes sont
réunis comme ils sont réunis dans la bouche ; c’est seulement en
haut que l’être humain est créateur et libre."

Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

Do not worry about someone taking your place.

"Do not worry about someone taking your place. No one can take
another’s place. We each have our place in the universe, because
God has made us unique beings, endowed with a specific vibration.
On the physical plane, of course, unjust, dishonest people can
succeed in ousting others, but on the spiritual plane this cannot
happen. The place God gives each one of us is absolutely the one
we deserve. In this domain there is absolute justice.
No one creature is able to take another’s place, but each must
develop to the point where it attains the perfection God
envisaged for it. Even if others have a more important part to
play, it rules where it is, because God gave it that place. By
virtue of being alive, each creature secretes a quintessence of
itself, which is specific to it. No other creature can take its
place; it remains unique and irreplaceable for all eternity."

Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

Celui qui se maîtrise lui-même ...

Celui qui se maîtrise lui-même et qui possède le juste discernement de ce qui est à lui et de ce qui n'est pas à lui se trouve au-dessus des circonstances et des conditions qui gouvernent et asservissent la vie des ignorants. En changeant ses états d'âme, il peut agir sur les états d'âme autour de lui et donc sur l'orientation finale des évènements. Ainsi une situation catastrophique peut devenir bénéfique. Celui qui ne convoite pas ce qui ne lui appartient pas est libre. Il a trouvé l'essentiel en lui et il en prend soin.

Human beings have descended from the heavenly regions

"Human beings have descended from the heavenly regions through a
process known as involution. During this descent into matter, as
they drew further and further away from the primordial fire they
took on bodies of increasing density, right down to the physical
body, just like in winter, when we are faced with the cold and
have to wear increasingly thick clothing, from a vest and shirt
through to an overcoat!
Now, on the way up again, human beings must undress,
symbolically speaking, that is, strip away anything that weighs
them down: instead of seeking to amass, they must learn to
renounce, cut loose and free themselves. Amassing encourages
descent. Any thought, feeling or wish inspired by the instinct to
possess clings to the subtle bodies like frost clinging to the
branches in winter. The spring sunshine has to return so that the
frost can melt and humans can recover their true being."

Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

everything that exists in heaven has a correspondence on earth

"You should have it firmly in mind that everything that exists in
heaven has a correspondence on earth, because earth is a
reflection of heaven. Yes, just a reflection, and if you really
want to know fulfilment, which is a state of the soul and spirit,
you must look for it not on earth but in heaven.
Humans are spirits that have come from heaven, and to be able to
work on the physical plane they have had to enter a body. The
physical body is to the human spirit what the universe is to God.
Yes, the universe, nature, represents God’s physical body. God
has a body formed of numerous centres and organs, and our body is
in the image of God’s. But our body can only come to life if it
is inhabited by the spirit. The spirit is the manifestation of
the presence of God within us. When the spirit goes, it takes
consciousness, life, with it, and all that remains in the body
are the physical elements, which eventually disintegrate. To
remain alive, the body, the earth, must never sever their
connection with the spirit, with heaven. "

Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

Celui qui ne peut pas être vrai ne peut pas être dans la dignité.

Toute créature a droit au respect, à la compréhension et à la dignité. Comprendre un être, c'est le guérir - et se guérir soi même - en le reconnectant à la source. La dignité, c'est pouvoir être soi-même dans la pureté et ne pas être obligé de se cacher et d'accepter d'être dénaturé. Celui qui ne peut pas être vrai ne peut pas être dans la dignité.

« Le soleil est son père, la lune est sa mère, le vent l’a porté dans son ventre et la terre est sa nourrice. »

"Nous ne connaissons l’or qu’à l’état solide. Mais, en réalité, ce
métal que l’on va chercher dans les entrailles de la terre,
existe d’abord à l’état igné, et c’est de lui que parle Hermès
Trismégiste quand il dit : « Le soleil est son père, la lune est
sa mère, le vent l’a porté dans son ventre et la terre est sa
nourrice. » Oui, c’est le soleil qui est le père de l’or, c’est
lui qui le produit, chacun de ses rayons est de l’or ; et la lune
est le reflet de cet or. À travers l’air, les rayons du soleil
viennent jusqu’à la terre qu’ils pénètrent, et c’est là qu’ils se
condensent. Donc, le soleil produit l’or à l’état éthérique et la
terre le condense. Dans le soleil, l’or est trop volatil, sa
condensation ne peut se produire que dans les entrailles de la
terre où se trouvent certains matériaux capables de le fixer.
Et vous, au printemps, lorsque vous regardez le soleil se lever,
pensez que vous êtes une sorte de terre dans laquelle l’or de ses
rayons peut venir se déposer et se fixer."

‘Let the dead bury their own dead.’

"Do your best to consider only people’s divine nature, their soul
and spirit; it is this nature you must serve. Don’t concern
yourself with satisfying the whims of their limited, selfish
lower nature. You will say, ‘Yes, but if I don’t give in to
people’s wishes at home, or among my friends or at work, I will
cause nothing but upset.’ Let them be annoyed; continue to love
and serve only their divine aspect!
Jesus said, ‘Let the dead bury their own dead.’ How should these
words be interpreted? What are these dead? They are in fact
people’s lower nature. The lower nature, the personality, should
be classed with the dead, and if we try so hard to please and
satisfy all its whims, we ourselves end up dying. Jesus did not
mean the dead in the cemeteries; they are where they should be,
and only their bodies are dead, while their soul is alive. The
dead Jesus speaks of are people who have no spiritual life,
because they give in too much to their lower nature, and you must
not waste your time and energy pleasing them."

Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

Tu te tiendras droit devant le Père

Tu te tiendras droit devant le Père, tu marcheras droit sur ses voies. Tu étudieras ses lois et tu les appliqueras. Si tu tombes, tu te redresseras devant lui et te tiendras dans sa Lumière en pleine conscience. Tu apprendras à être neutre devant la réussite ou devant l'échec car le Père est le bien et en toute chose c'est le bien qu'il t'offre. C'est pourquoi il faut apprendre à accueillir sa volonté sans jugement et surtout sans sensibilité humaine et mortelle.

The truths of Initiatic Science

"The truths of Initiatic Science often reappear in some form or

other as rules or customs instituted by humans, which last at

least for a time. One example of this is the right of sanctuary.

In olden times, if someone guilty of a crime was being pursued

and was able to enter the sanctuary of a god, they came under the

protection of that god, and no one had the right to seize them.

The custom still existed in the Middle Ages when, of course, the

churches served as refuges, which can still happen today. This

tradition is based on knowledge concerning the spiritual life:

anyone who succeeds in finding refuge in God, despite being

pursued by inner or outer enemies, finds safety. While they

remain on high, on the peaks of the soul and the spirit, their

pursuers are kept at bay."

Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov

Tu honoreras la vie car elle est l'envoyé du Père, son premier-né et à travers elle, c'est le Père que tu honoreras.

Tu honoreras la vie car elle est l'envoyé du Père, son premier-né et à travers elle, c'est le Père que tu honoreras. Si tes yeux ne voient plus la vie, ouvre tes oreilles et écoute l'enseignement d'une Intelligence supérieure qui à travers le Verbe te dit que la Mère est vivante et qu'elle apparaît dans les minéraux, les végétaux, les animaux et les hommes. Derrière ce monde visible, se tient un monde invisible, subtil, qui est l'autre dimension de la vie : le monde des Anges, des Archanges et des Dieux. C'est ce monde supérieur qui rend vivant le monde visible et lui ouvre un sens sacré, éternel, divin.

Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect

"Jesus said, ‘Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect’. Even
if divine perfection is an ideal we humans cannot achieve, we
must work to build our lives on this basic thought. It is very
important to have a basic thought around which all our other
thoughts gravitate; it is the framework holding up the whole
edifice.
So make divine perfection your primary consideration. Then, the
various thoughts that pull you in all directions and weaken you
will find their master; they will be forced to submit and to take
part in your inner work of regeneration. Every foreign thought
trying to enter you will be captured and placed in the service of
the divine world as you decide. Any animals wanting to trample
the flowers in your inner garden will have to submit to this
basic thought; it will open the door only to the beings of light
from the invisible world, which will come to work on you."
