Esoteric Schools and Mystical Teachings, Part 2

There is a reality more real than reality — the reality of the Spirit!
– Vaklush Tolev

Part 2 of the second volume of the work “History and Theory of World Religious Teachings” is dedicated to the esoteric schools and mystical teachings from the post-Christian era – Neoplatonism, Hesychasm, Rosicrucianism, Theosophy, Anthroposophy, and Danovism.

The author, not without a certain degree of regret, notes the absence of the magic of heuristic insight in post-Christian spiritual teachings:
“The worldview of European culture is conditioned by past mythologies and Christianity as monastic conduct… No one after Christ has changed the altar of prayer!”

Annotation

“Esoteric Schools and Mystical Teachings,” Part 2, presents post-Christian occultism, examined and viewed through the Doctrine of Wisdom. In Plotinism and Hesychasm, Rosicrucianism and Theosophy, Anthroposophy and Danovism — as post-Christian occult schools — the magic of heuristic insight is absent; instead, there is the acknowledgment of what is given and derived. Missing are the adytum — the hall of initiation — and the ark of consecration; the power of the caduceus, i.e., the staff of Thoth. This is because the worldview of European culture is conditioned by past mythologies and Christianity as monastic behavior. When Plotinus established the gradations of virtuous citizen, Son of God, god, even Father of the gods, Christ had already said, “I and the Father are one…”

Two factors shape history — Creation and Knowledge; and two forces condition existence — Love and Death.

If Hesychasm seeks the application of “theory and praxis,” does not Tabor testify to Transfiguration? And to conceal itself behind human wisdom, Theosophy was metamorphosed by Anthroposophy — fear that man is a god in evolution!?

The greatest trauma inflicted and left by post-Christian occultism was the psychology of the Inquisition. How far the modern world has distanced itself from God’s humanity, sought in Human Divinity, the Reader will discover for themselves.

In the Way of Wisdom Teaching there is no supernatural miracle, there is knowledge!
