I have heard that you have the spirit of the gods within you and that you are filled with insight, understanding, and wisdom.
— Daniel 5:14
New Living Translation
“Reaching For The Light”
Mystic Insight … p 59
When speaking of supernatural Beings from the night of time, Mme. H.P. Blavatsky, nineteenth century Russian intellectual and theosophist, uses a phrase both curious and revealing: revealing in the sense that it speaks of a spiritual power that we, who are neither supernatural nor superhuman, yet possess: “… their essence cannot assimilate itself to that of worlds beyond our solar system.” (Secret Doctrine, Vol. II. p 700)
“Essence,” meaning our inner Being, or, in other words, our divine life-giving soul, is of course the key word in Mme. Blavatsky’s discourse. Put in a positive context, our (human) essence can, and does, assimilate itself to that of others. That is to say, we possess the innate capacity to communicate with others on a spiritual plane by way of our intuitional “third eye”.
In order that we may rise above our worldly plane of matter — that enmeshed in materialism — we quiet the mind and become still within that we may give in-depth attention to the other. We become vulnerable, which in turn gives rise to mutual trust. Together, we become immersed in a state of mystical insight.
