Psychological Individual
We start to experience what it is to be a psychological
individual when we relocate our reference point from the outside to the inside.
That is from other people or our thoughts and feelings about other people to what
we know about ourselves and our own consciousness and conscience.
There are degrees of psychological individuality, however
none of them can ever be attained if one has not relocated his or her reference
point to be in his/her consciousness.
A person who has his or her reference point by which to
cause his or her psychological processes is a person that is dependent on the
reactions of others. Such a person always asks for approval, feels that he or
she is always doing something wrong, always feels guilty and nervous, is always
worried what others think about him or her and always feels people are looking
at him or her and are judging him or her (in other words ‘self-conscious’ in
ordinary everyday language).

| When we have our reference point all wrong (located outside of ourselves) we are very much like puppets. |
Feeling ‘self-conscious’ in ordinary everyday language is a
clear sign to us that in that moment we have our reference point all wrong!
Feeling this way is the opposite of being conscious of oneself.
To generate your actions from within, to do what is right or
correct by your own consciousness, work, path and Being in any given moment, it
is imperative that you have your reference point in those mentioned internal elements of at
least our essence or consciousness or work. The path and the Being are pretty difficult
to find at times but we can always (well much more readily) find consciousness and
essence.
Esoteric Individual
An esoteric individual is a step up from a psychological
individual. One begins to become an esoteric individual when one incarnates the
human soul. There are as always, octaves of this process and the degree of
esoteric or sacred individuality increases as one advances on the path as more
and more parts of the person’s Being are incorporated or incarnated within the
person.
End (1388).
