The Obligatory Good Stage Talk Notes - (4792)

Obligatory Order

Here is a short outline of the obligatory order:

1.) Cultivate the good 2.) Balance the good 3.) Begin to seriously awaken 4.) Develop awakening


The 'Good'

To awaken and develop in the white and in the Being we need to be 'good' first. That really makes sense doesn't it? How can it be that we have to be 'bad' first?


Well, as an aside before we can be 'good' we have to be 'bad'. Bad we have been through the many lives that we have had.


If for some reason we thought that we need to be 'bad' first, we in truth would not get anywhere in the white and neither in that which is above both black and the white - the Real Being.


So we start by developing the good. Cultivating in action all the beautiful virtues of service, help, generosity, humility, selflessness, obedience, loyalty, persistence, diligence, industriousness etc. 




After some years of cultivating the good we will get to the stage where there is little within us that can stop us from doing the good. All the "I's" that would oppose the 'good' have been overcome. They may still be alive but they have been defeated.


This stage has its beauty. Such a person is so helpful to others. This stage is where the merits for the balance and the awakening are earnt. This stage is where so much karma is paid. So many Gnostic activities that benefit others are carried to fruition with the help of such people.


There are not too many that embark on this obligatory stage. They remain stuck in the "I's" that don't want to help and develop the 'good' or they remain stuck in their personality, and their concepts that don't allow them to deeply develop the good, only superficially.


This is well known to all missionaries who teach the path and that is why they insist so much in getting the students to help and develop the good through service, humility, work, sacrifice etc.


This stage though is not an 'awakened' stage. It is a stage towards awakening. The awakening is yet to come. It is not an asleep stage either as one knows that one is cultivating these values for the awakening.


In this stage, we are of great use to the white lodge as a worker. A person who always says yes to the enhancement of any project that favours the work is a great asset, and has a value that can not be written on a price tag. Such a person is of high value to both human beings and to the beings of the invisible.  


In this stage we help all that we can and when that help is well placed it goes far and is very fulfilling and merit worthy. However, there are occasions where that help is wonderful but only contributes to helping others pay karma and fulfill recurrences, making it not to merit worthy.


Awakening is needed as the next to be added to this stage, as the good will always help, however the awakened one know when to "let the dead bury the dead.".


Balance the 'Good'

Once the 'good' is well developed then comes time to balance it. Balance is the result of bringing both the good and the bad together and choosing relative to a chosen option the best from both sides.


Balance can not be arrived at without knowing both the good and the bad. One has to know the good in the bad and the bad in the good.


Awaken

With balance comes awakening, because only the consciousness can manage balance. The mind is not fully capable of finding balance and maintaining balance.




Develop Awakening

With awakening the only thing to do is to expand and intensify the awakening that one has attained.
