Definition
Merits are a special quantity. A special value that makes us
deserving or worthy of some reward or some through passage.
In esotericism, merits are typically seen in terms of reward
and progression. In human terms, merits can mean both reward or punishment. For
example, “his callous actions merit punishment”.
Merits are similar to dharma or cosmic capital but they are
not strictly dharma. Included in merits there is always dharma, however merits
are a touch more. They are an envelope that contains dharma and certain values
of the essence or Being.
About the Nature of Merits
Merits are partially invisible. To understand this point ask
yourself do you know how much merits you have or how much cosmic capital you
have? The answer is that we don’t really know.
One knows how much merits one has or one lacks through
negotiation.
There are general merits are merits relative to something,
for example merits in relation to awakening the kundalini.
There are merits of the heart, merits of the five centres,
merits of the consciousness, etc.
The Monad and Merits
Do all Monads have the same merit?
Answer: No. Monads who have achieved the self-realisation are
different in terms of merit to those who have not realized themselves.
Trick Question - Are all Monads created equal, that is with
equal merits?
Answer: No. Because the Monad is not created the Monad has
always been and will always be. Merits are a matter of voluntary and conscious
works.
Merits and Time
If we have merits it is because they were created in the
past. All merits come from present and past works and are stored within us here
and now.
Merits remain within us to be used for the future.
Merits can also be lost.
Misconduct, specifically conduct that breaks the ethics that
uphold the value of merits causes those same merits to be lost within a person.
Merits are Earnt, Won, Fabricated…Not Given
The issue of inherent merits is too difficult to answer.
Merits within our essence and within our Being are mostly invisible to us.
When we are permitted to see, merits are symbolised by rings,
jewels, vestments, treasures, coins made of precious metals, swords, precious
stones, etc.
Merits are created by the consciousness.
Merits are a matter of conscious and voluntary works.
Money and Merits, Merits and the Path
The money that a person has, is largely an expression of the
person’s cosmic capital and merit. However, there are merits of life and there
are merits of the path.
Merits of the path are not usually shown in the physical
money that we have.
The Benefits or Use of Merits
Merits heal us.
Merits allow us passage into higher octaves of the work and
path.
Merits pay for light.
Merits allow us physical vitality.
Merits allow us knowledge.
Merits allow us to marry the right person for our esoteric
work.
Merits allow us to die psychologically.
Our merits can heal others and be used to help others.
Merits allow us a happy physical death and one that is
conscious or more conscious than mechanical.
The merits of purity, tenderness, kindness, love allow us to
work magically with the elementals of nature.
Best Way to Earn Merits
Any work that we do that has a positive result earns us
merits. Helping others earns much merit.
Spiritual work is the highest currency to earn merits with.
Transforming oneself is the best way to yearn the most
merits.
Our Being is the greatest treasure. Anything that enhances
the Being, that is brings our Being forward in us earns the highest merits.
Any practice earns us capital and merit.
The greater the sacrifice the great the merits.
Karma and Merits
Many times the merits we have pays our karma allows us to
negotiate with the Divine Law regarding our karmic debts.
There are however, karmic debts that no matter the quantity
of merits and dharma that we have we must pay that karma. It simply cannot be
negotiated.
Conclusion
We need to fabricate merits. Merits are best fabricated by
working on our psychological death. With merits we can progress in our work and
achieve and acquire all that we need to complete our work and wish to know, be
or possess.
Work in the three factors to totally maximise your chances of
earning merits.
