The theme of these reflections is initiation. Initiation is simply about becoming more consciously aware. In the past, those who sought a higher consciousness entered into sanctuaries for training. Today, initiation occurs in everyday living. The essence of modern initiation means forging an intimate relationship with our I AM, our Higher Self. The deed on Golgotha made this possible for the first time. Forging this relationship with our I AM is not the only thing we are required to do; we must also awaken the presence of the risen Christ within our hearts. This process assumes that we live repeated earthly lives and that each time we have the opportunity to build on our previous incarnations. It should be noted that even if we were an initiate in a past life we must strive for this higher consciousness anew under new (current) evolutionary circumstances.In the past only certain people were capable of achieving a consciousness that was higher than their fellow human beings. The new revelation of the mysteries becomes increasingly available to anyone who strives to see and understand them. It is the quality of the striving that brings the rewards.This book contains a series of contemplations to assist with this process of initiation.
