Introduction
There are two types of destiny or well actually three where
the third is a mixture of or a hybrid of the original two types.
Basically everyone is born with one type and only with
conscious efforts can we change to the second type.
These two types of destiny are called: mechanical destiny
(common to all human beings) and conscious destiny (a destiny forged by the
consciousness, soul or Being of the person).
This post describes these two destinies.
Mechanical Destiny
Our mechanical destiny is the one that has been forged by
our past and our karmic debts and by the mechanical elements that we have
within our psychology.
We are primarily mechanical creatures and so our reactions
and behaviours can be predicted and because of that our whole life can be
predicted. So then because of the egos that we have especially the causal egos
(because they set up circumstances in our life) our life marches along a
pre-set line, a line that basically we set up because we are mechanical and one
which the Divine Law sets up.
The Divine Law basically set the various events that come to
our life. They set up how much scarcity and abundance there will be in our
life. They set up the various good and bad opportunities that will come our way
in life. However they program our life so that we pay the karmic debts that we
have.
One element of the conscious destiny is to be able to pay
off our debts consciously and be able to negotiate their payment.
Conscious Destiny
The conscious destiny is one set by the work oneself and by
our inner Being. The conscious destiny has our real Being at the centre and his
realisation. There of course may also be the mission that He wishes to carry
out.
When we create fully our conscious destiny the Being is in
charge of our life and He decides when we are to die physically, essentially
the Being in us has defeated death, She – death can do us no harm, She does not
come to us when She wants or when the Law says that She has to come to us. She
comes to us when the Being in us decides.
This is the triumph of Atman in us. The Being or Atman in
charge of His universe, we are all a universe in miniature.
That is really marvellous isn’t it. That should be our most
urgent yearning, to die in ourselves to give way to our inner Being to take
over! We as we are do not have much future and we do not have much to offer the
Being either. Only with our death do we conquer death it is said!
Conclusion
In conclusion, we certainly have one destiny, and if we are
studying Gnosis we have a mixture of the mechanical and the one set by the
Being in accordance with the Divine Law, and really it is up to us now to
continue following this new line of destiny by working on ourselves and
eventually fully create the conscious destiny set by your real Being.
The more we work on ourselves and help humanity spiritually
the more we create, shape and set this new conscious destiny.
