Saba "The Queen of the South"

The Queen of Sheba came to Solomon from the ends of the earth, from the periphery, to question him of wisdom, to which he provided every answer to her satisfaction, but for her life and love remained directed towards the Chief Architect -for Hiram Abif! and of the science and word by which the temple may be built, and so with the wisdom of the starry world the path is sought, in time and space, as our soul also descends into the depths of matter: – For she is "dark but comely".

Why Hiram and not Solomon?

The answer: Solomon's wisdom was old - as he said, Wisdom increased suffering! The Queen wanted excitement and joy! The work was certainly not done! Even if Jehovah had said: My work is 'completed', for her it was not! And so she needed a Co-Creator, and that was one that could comprehend her soul, and that was the gift of love that streamed between them. It is human: and God said to Eve in the Garden: 'it will take a long time', and so it did take a long time - and we are the children, all of us are the children of the 'long-time'.

Salt

The Student asked the Teacher, Has salt any mythological relevance?

The Teacher answer:

When we think 'salt' we put into motion within our soul everything associated with the process. So salt, even though it is small, is no less in itself for it, is one of the most dynamic things to contemplate. So 'salt' can, for example, represent mythology. We think mythology plays a small role in our life until we focus down on the little elements within us, and raise them up microscopic fashion, then we see a world within a world. So 'salt' is then a symbol for mythology. Our world is 'salted' with mythology....and not too much or too little either, for it must not overpower, nor be neglected or we can't taste it or in other words, come to 'sense it' in a likable manor. Salt is then our inner Ego, as a mythological portion of every lifetime or thought, or feeling, and spread within the atmosphere of everything, even to the stars. So the human ego is both a mythology of himself, and understands 'the flavor' of his own 'salt' or 'mythology, is not the same in others, for he senses that two 'salts' cannot be in the universal being, nor can all the 'salts' be together so something is removed, so this 'salt' that is given by us, and this 'salt' must also be 'sensed' by our self and so we love the flavor and not because of the 'salt' alone, but because from our side, we have added something that was 'missing' , and from the other side of being, it is also the same, and we all first sense the world 'without' salt, and then it is magically added. In this way we rise to the level of seeing salt as 'thought'.

Secret of a Long Life

Generally speaking, all those who live long are altruists and optimists. They know neither hatred nor envy. In addition to their practice of periodic fasts and their fine diet of natural foods they also know the value of a good diet in thoughts and emotions.

Secret Rosicrucian Fire Meditation

From the Book :
'Secret Symbols of the Rosicrucians "

Ignis Philosophorum Invisibilis & Secretissimus Occultatum.

' Strive for the fire,
Seek the fire
So you will find the fire
Light the fire
Put fire to fire
Cook fire in fire
Throw body , soul and spirit into fire
Thus you will have dead and living fire
Out of which will come black, yellow,
white and red fire
Bear your children in fire
Feed give them to drink, nourish them
in fire
So they will live and die in fire
And be fire, and stay in fire.
Their silver and gold will become fire
Heaven and Earth will perish in fire
And become finally a fourfold
philosophic fire '

Seeing Auras

The students asked the teacher:

I cannot see auras but I feel the warmth or coldness of people. Why is that? Do you understand what I mean?

The teacher answered:

Oh yes, I understand. perfectly. The auras will become visible at the right time.

It will arrive like a baby through the wonderment, for in loving kindness is the greatest treasure, and being occupied with it without 'seeing' is the sign of our true faith . It is how we conquer our insecurity that counts towards our capacity to see wisdom working ahead of us with inspirations as a gentle and perfectly forming misty rain that reveals our true thoughts and true willing to us. Our feelings come from within.

Sharing Wisdom

"The spirit is joyful for us in our dedication to the work of the spirit of wisdom. Our sharing in the earth gives further joy to all beings joined by the spirit of wisdom."

From the book of the Students of Spirit

Simple People

"One of the biggest misconception is that simple mined people don't ask questions, but in truth the simple minded ask the most questions. There-fore the learned man who doesn't ask questions must reform his consciousness so that he may regain the mood of soul of the simple minded soul that still asks and ponders."
