“Those who always criticize, refute, and attack us do so only because they are moved by their pride, selfishness and vanity.”

The Guardian of the Threshold of the mind is similar to the smoke of the flame. The Guardian of the Threshold of the mind is a terrible demonic creature. It lives by reacting against the exterior world with waves of pleasure and pain, with waves of likes and dislikes, and with waves of hatred, envy, greed, slander, selfishness, etc.

We must cultivate sincerity, because the most beautiful flowers of the Spirit germinate within the substance of sincerity.

“We must learn how to know good from evil and evil from good. In everything that is evil, there is something good; in everything that is good, there is something evil. Although it seems incredible, the Mary Magdalenes are much closer to initiation than many innocent girls. Although it seems unusual to the student, the one who is pointed at and accused with the finger is often closer to the initiation than the hypocritical, sanctimonious one who sweetly smiles before the people in the auditorium of the lodge or temple.”

Clairvoyance and imagination are the same. Clairvoyance is imagination and imagination is clairvoyance. Clairvoyance exists eternally. When an image emerges in our interior, it is then necessary to serenely examine it in order to know its contents. When the igneous rose of our Astral body (situated in the middlebrow) awakens into new activity, then the images that come internally to our imagination are accompanied with light and color. It is necessary to learn by direct experience how to differentiate between the images that are received and the images that we consciously or unconsciously create or project. It is necessary to differentiate between our own images and the outer images that come to us. The imagination has two poles, one being a receptor and the other a projector. Receiving an image is one thing. Projecting an image created by our mind is another thing. The contrary pole of the imagination is [all that is] imaginary [fantasy]. Imagination is clairvoyance. Fantasy is all the absurd images that are created by a mind filled with aberrations. Instructors must not only give practices to disciples in order to awake the frontal chakra, but they must also teach them how to control the clairvoyance. Clairvoyance is imagination. This chakra resides in the middlebrow. Imagination is translucent. For wise individuals, to imagine is to see. The Age of Reason was initiated by Aristotle. It reached its culmination with Emmanuel Kant and ends now with the birth of the new era of Aquarius. The new era of Aquarius will be the era of the intuitive humanity. We must learn to differentiate between creating an image with the mind and capturing an image that floats in the supra-sensible worlds. Many people may say, “How is it possible for me to capture an image when I am not clairvoyant?” We must answer them that imagination is the same as clairvoyance and that every human being is more or less imaginative, which means, more or less clairvoyant. The most damage that has been caused to the students of esotericism is a result of the false concept that exists about clairvoyance. The creators of this false concept are the ‘intellectuals’ who have observed the faculties of the imagination with scorn. Wanting to defend themselves from this intellectual disdain, the esotericists began to give a scientific tinge to the imagination and the name of clairvoyance or sixth sense was given to it. This attitude of the esotericists damaged themselves because they remained in confusion. Now, the esotericists (who are victims of the intellectuals) have established a terrible abyss between clairvoyance and imagination. Many people ask themselves, “How can I perceive images without being a clairvoyant?” Poor people! They do not know the treasure which they possess. They ignore that imagination is the same as clairvoyance and that every human being is more or less clairvoyant. The esotericists have wanted to convert the beautiful faculty of clairvoyance into something artificial, technical and difficult. Clairvoyance is imagination. Clairvoyance is the most beautiful, the most simple and pure flower of spirituality. When we re-conquer our lost infancy, all the images that come to our imagination are accompanied by vivid astral colors. The intellectual who despises imagination commits a grave absurdity because everything that exists in nature is a child of imagination. The artist who paints a picture is a great clairvoyant. One remains amazed before Leonardo da Vinci’s Christ or before Michelangelo’s Madonna. The artist perceives sublime images with his imagination (clairvoyance). He then places them with paint over the canvas or he carves them for his sculpture. Mozart’s Magic Flute reminds us of an Egyptian initiation... When the mother goddess of the world wants to give a toy to humans for their entertainment, she then places it in the imagination of inventors. This is how we have the radio, the airplane, the automobile, etc. When the tenebrous images of the submerged worlds are captured by the scientists, these are then converted into cannons, machine guns, bombs, etc. Therefore, the entire world is more or less clairvoyant. Imagination cannot be despised because all things are children of imagination. It is necessary to differentiate between the people who have not received any esoteric education and those who have already submitted themselves to great esoteric disciplines. Imagination evolves, develops, and progresses within the igneous rose of the universe. Those who have already caused the magic wheel of their middlebrow to rotate, possess a rich and powerful imagination and all the images which are perceived by them are accompanied with light, color, heat and sound. We do not deny the existence of clairvoyance. Clairvoyance is the sixth sense. Its chakra resides in the middlebrow and has ninety-six rays. What we want is to increase this concept and to make the student to comprehend that the other name for clairvoyance is imagination. People have forgotten how to use and control divine clairvoyance. It is necessary for our students to know that imagination is actually clairvoyance or the sixth sense situated in the middlebrow. Many people believe that imagination is purely a mental faculty and that it has nothing to do with the clairvoyant frontal chakra. This false concept is due to the disdain that intellectuals feel about imagination, and to the cunning way through which the esotericists want to make a technicality of this beautiful faculty of clairvoyance. The frontal chakra of the Astral body is intimately related with the frontal chakra of the Mental body, with the frontal chakra of the ethereal body and with the pituitary gland, situated in the middlebrow of the physical body. Therefore, imagination belongs to all the planes of the universal Consciousness. Clairvoyance is precisely the same imagination with the susceptibility of development, evolution and progress within the igneous rose of the universe.

We must learn to think with the heart and to feel with the head.
