People who concern
themselves heavily about popular teachers, spiritual leaders
or gurus they consider to be false and misleading are almost
invariably unable to name anyone they regard as The
Real Thing. So what is happening with such
people? They (like most of our note-readers) do not see
the Law of Resonance, which says that it is the false who concentrate
on the false and the real who concentrate on the real. Try
to see the full implications of the Law of Resonance before
you go on to the next note if you
want to avoid unnecessary confusion about all this.
When an important new
teaching arises in the world, all sorts of people who assume
their own spiritual authority will try to put it down. The
existing pattern of false authorities have already learned
to deal with each other so that each can feel superior to
all the others. This is a sociological fact. The
natural extension of this sociological behavior happens when
a new impressive authority rises up who has not been accounted
for. The endless false authorities will all be desperate
to find the new authority especially false and wrong. For
the false authority, all other authorities have
to be false. The tension of sociological
pressure is immense in the sociological pressure system.
This note
is about how you need to learn to distinguish between spiritual
action and
mere manifestations of sociological pressure.
For instance, one in a state of giving or receiving spiritual
action does not feel threatened or greedy. Wherever
there is a background feeling of being somehow threatened or
opportunistically excited, one is undoubtedly experiencing
and participating in sociological pressure. This has to
be understood if genuine spiritual action is
to be even slightly possible. Spiritual
action is never a
part of the general sociological pressure system of the so-called “spiritual
scene”.
