Glamour
Of all the problems which beset humanity there is none greater than the
problem of glamour. It provides the basis for all our difficulties and
dangers, and holds the vast majority of humanity in thrall. It is at
the root
of every division and cleavage and the source of every dimension of pain
and suffering. It has its roots in the ancient past of mankind and all
but a
very few are held under its sway.
Essentially, glamour originates in man’s sensuous, feeling
apparatus - the emotional or astral body - and in man’s identification
with
its action. Through wrong identification with his feelings and emotions
-
his desire nature - he has surrounded himself with, and lost himself in,
thick fogs of illusion and unreality. This constitutes the glamour in
which
most people live out their lives. Glamour is illusion on the plane of
the
emotions and provides the greatest obstacle to progress, for the
individual
and for the race. It throws a multitude of misconceptions across the
path
of the unwary, and the loftiest idealist is no freer from its influence
(nay,
he is frequently more prone) than the hardened cynic.
To come to grips with glamour, humanity must recognize its
mechanism, by which means the central heresy - that we are separate - is
created and maintained. All that tends to reinforce the sense of
separateness is the result of the action of glamour, and all that seeks
to
undermine that heresy works for its destruction. Glamour resides in the
notion that man’s desires are real, that they have their own intrinsic
validity and purpose, whereas, in truth, they are the cause of all
unhappiness; no more real, no less transient, than the mirage of the
desert.
Many are the ways to God but the quickest and the surest is the
path of Service. No other path so fully embodies the nature of God.
Take
your place on this path and carry out the dictates of your soul. Follow
the
promptings of your heart and awaken to the needs of the world. Know
that as you enter on the path of Service you accept your place within
the
Plan, and find yourself well set upon the path to God.
Ready, then, will be the response from us, your Elder Brothers.
Quickly shall We seize the opportunity to help you on your way through
stimulus and proffered fields of service. Thus can you join Us and aid
Us
in Our work. Make this your aim and join the ranks of the Servers of
the
world. Take your place at Our side and work with the Forces of Light.
Victory is assured but must be fought for and won.
Be not afraid in the midst of the chaos and tension. Fear has
no
place in the present situation; rather, see it as a challenge to your
faith.

"Individuals are going to experience, for the first time, that Divinity
is not 'outside' but situated simultaneously in the heart and in the
universe, in all of creation.... the true Lord is in the heart. If you
want to know Him try to understand the Voice of Silence.... Silence is
that space which is free from conditioning ... The day the Self within
is free of the stresses and strains inherent in the processes of being
and becoming, yet fulfils its duty in a detached manner, the Kingdom of
the Lord is experienced by the Self in the heart.

others. The moment you surrender yourself to some other self you become
a zombie. Do not allow any
shadow, even, to possess you. Your destiny is to be free.

is like a sponge -- it absorbs illusions like water and engulfs the
Self." Maitreya

Whats with this whining? Last time around, you were probably
a man who picked on women. Lots of women dearie, particularly those who
are well read, know that the word 'man' refers in general, to
mankind as a whole.
According to DK, much so called 'sensitivity' is just a matter of
being thin skinned.
Hope you're feeling better soon.

You are a typical, stupid, apologist fuckhead, playing at being
'spriritual'.
Why are you assuming that I am not a male? Hmmm? Hello. Wake-up call.
Perhaps, this is because " last time around", you were a little snail
"dearie", and you still have a lot of evolving to do. You are obviously
not "well read" yourself "dearie", because if you were, you would have
by now realised by now that language is formative, and powerfully
constructs our expectations etc. Can you grasp the difference between me
saying to you: "Let me introduce you to my NIGGER friend here", instead
of "Let me introduce you to Professor Lewis"? Hmmm? Hello. Any brain
cells in there, apart from pseudo-intellectual, patently theosophistical
clap trap.

When I think of "Glamour" I think of what makes us "physically"
attractive to each other. This is not something that is bad, this is
simply nature at work (survival of the fittest ect...) it is normal for
us to be attracted to another person who is "glamourous" what kind of
sub-human spieces would we become if we were NOT attracted to the best
looking individuals. While I AGREE with you in some ways, that we are
MUCH more than physical beings... to IGNORE what is put there by nature
does NATURE a major injustice.

Ahh...
I am "playing" at trying to engage, without the usual canonical bullshit
and crap, people who flatter themselves that they are in touch with a
higher, a more enduring and solid knowledge, but who lack all logical
capacity, as well as the ability to take a little heat. Your truth, old
darlings, appears as solid as butter!
The Nazis, having discovered their truths, were fabulously successful
(for a time) in propagating their verities. They just told people to
shut the fuck up, or they simply killed them. What is your theosophical
strategy?
Sure, you have a right to say, and attempt to prove, that theosophy is
true gnosis. And I too have the right to say, and just as vehemently,
that your "theosophistry" is a little cult, a little blanket for the
puny-minded.
