Question: Will you, please, sum up the basic principles
of your School?
Answer: Our School is strictly monotheistic. Our God is He, Who is called
Jehovah in Hebrew, God-the-Father in English, Allah in Arabic, Ishvara in Sanskrit,
Tao in Chinese. The Puth to Him runs through Love. Love is the most quick and safe
Puth to Him.
There are schools that give priority to the sahasrara chakra in practical esoteric
work, other view ajna as the principal chakra, while others — muladhara or the complex
of the three lower chakras — hara, and so on. We, in accordance with the
Teaching of God, know the anahata chakra to be the principal one on the Path to
Him.
If we have Love, this ensures that our acceptance of knowledge and power will
be safe.
But on the initial stages of one’s development of Love, these same things make
one more vulnerable to influences of coarse energy. That is, the one who has “shed”
garments of coarseness starts feeling oneself “naked” among coarse people. There
is a recommendation in the New Testament for this stage: shrink from evil and cleave
to good. These hardships will be over when one acquires — through special methods
of training — the power is subtlety. Then such a person, again in parlance
of the New Testament, will be able to “be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil
with good”.
One may certainly ask: what if I develop power first and refine it later? I will
answer: it would be very nice and in reality it happens sometimes and with good
result.
But there is a dilemma. If we start with Love and subtlety — we will have a certain
period (some months) of hard time, or may even “break down”. But if we start with
Power, we may get lost in vices and accumulate so bad karma!... What is better and
what is worse?
And to avoid this “break down” we have to hold tight to God: to perfect our Love
for Him, to study the directions concerning living on the Earth that He gave to
us in the New Testament, the Bhagavad Gita, Tao Te Ching, and other books. I would
advise that those who cannot do this should not hurry to start the psychoenergetic
line of work. They would rather pay more attention to jnani yoga and karma yoga.
