So many things that are done by human beings have a spirit behind them. That 'spirit' is something that exists by itself on its own already and we either have embraced that spirit and do things with that spirit or we are in the process of discovering it.
The spirit of the work is liberation. The spirit of liberation is death. The spirit of death is to shed and shed - never to accumulate more and more of the unnecessary and the subjective.
All the things of the consciousness have a spirit behind them - and this spirit that is in them and also behind them - animates them.
The spirit of the Gnostic teachings is liberation...
The spirit of the Third factor is love.
The spirit of the consciousness is to know, to reveal, to understand, to liberate...
Anyhow it is good to be aware of the spirit of the things we do in the work and be aware of them so that we can do them correctly according to their spirit. Which means to do things more truthfully and to attract the forces of the spirit that are behind them and animate them.
If we know the spirit of any practice that we do we can do it much more consciously.
