Misc. 6 – Being and Knowing - (642)

Introduction

We have to convert knowledge into consciousness. When we do that we take the life and the light from that knowledge and then absorb it into our consciousness.


Need of Balance

We need to balance the being and the knowing. We don't in life usually balance them. When we don’t balance the two, we get the case of the stupid saint and or the intellectual rascal.


Conclusion - Balancing Being and Knowing

The way we develop knowledge is through first the intellect, then transferring the results of the intellectual reflection into the emotion. The 'knowledge in the emotion later becomes comprehension. Comprehension then leads to consciousness or being. Master Samael said that to get comprehension we have to meditate on what we have a reflected upon intellectually.


End (642).
