Just as in the education of children, where their parents teach them the meaning of things, it is also necessary for the teacher to teach the student their purpose.
This can be the biggest challenge for those starting out, as it is very difficult to overcome the resistance of the ego, as it requires abandoning individuality and placing all trust in the guide.
The challenge is not in what you accept, but in what you can’t accept.
Not finding a guide in no way means the end of the road; you always have the option of moving forward on your own. It is an honor to take responsibility for our own actions, to take the reins of our destiny into our own hands. It is possible to move forward without the need for anyone to encourage us, but we must recognize that achieving this requires real willpower.
Those who have already lost everything are free to try anything.
Just as birth, the awakening of consciousness, is also a solitary act, once the energy reaches a certain threshold, the power itself is responsible for placing the master on the path of the Apprentice; that is the path, everything else is a forced and ineffective act.”
“When the apprentice becomes aware of their situation, they start to plan a course of action. The first thing is to establish energy-saving techniques. This is achieved by eliminating everything that is superfluous; he keeps only what is strictly necessary. He organizes his life in such a way that he arranges his immediate environment, such as home, school and workplace, like a battlefield. He creates his own exercises according to the terrain available and performs specific acts that help him in the task of clearing his connection with the spirit.”
“When the apprentice enters the world of witchcraft, he is immersed in the task of saving energy and clearing the tonal island. These are monumental tasks, but the techniques of the warrior’s path come to your rescue, so learn to pursue yourself; this is achieved by being deliberate in thought, word and deed.
“Only when balance is achieved in daily life does the path become clear.”
