What is the difference between knowledge and KNOWLEDGE, and “sleeping” from “awakened”? As has been said more than once, according to esoteric KNOWLEDGE, life is one of the stages of BEING. According to the same KNOWLEDGE: the goal of life is perfection, which proceeds in two parallel, but mutually supportive paths: mental and moral; the purpose of life is to give the next essence (soul) to enter our world (as our ancestors called it) for further improvement; the meaning of life is in cognition, and the Sacred cognition, i.e. acquisition of KNOWLEDGE. Here is what the esoteric literature says about this.
Fulcanelli has an interesting statement in his book "Philosophical Abode": "The most important secret, in which all the elements and principles of higher knowledge converge, does not lie in life, because life is in us and around us, it is familiar to us and those who know how to observe will certainly catch all of it. The mystery lies in death, in this invisible area of the part of spirituality, where at the end of its earthly journey the soul, freed from the fetters, hides itself. Into nothingness, in the mysterious nothing. that life demonstrates to us … Birth will teach us little, but death, from which life is born, will reveal everything to us. She alone holds the keys to the laboratory of nature, she alone frees the spirit trapped inside the material body. "But on this occasion, what is said in the "Emerald Tablets of Thoth Atlanta": "Fire - coming from the implicit, existing for some time in the explicit and then disappearing again in the implicit - forms a symbol of consciousness, which arises from the implicit, exists for some time in the physical body and then disappears into the implicit. Thus, the person is explicitly told to seek wisdom beyond consciousness. " Most of those who will read this article will begin to object: “What knowledge can there be after death, because death is nothingness, nothing. Now I was gaining knowledge at school, then at the institute, some have defended their candidate's degree, doctoral degree, and some have become an academician. " But the whole point is that in this case, these opponents are talking about knowledge, not about KNOWLEDGE. All the knowledge that we receive here in JAVI is aimed at providing our material body. The existence of which depends on many factors: food, heat (and this is housing and clothing), humidity, radiation, etc. And all our knowledge is directed to JAVI in order to create for ourselves (and if someone began to "wake up" and others), comfortable living conditions. This knowledge contributes to our moral improvement, and the main thing here is the individual's ability to suppress his egoism and use the knowledge gained not for enrichment, power, fame, etc., but in proportion to share everything achieved with those who have not yet reached the proper level. providing himself with the most necessary in reasonable aisles, as stated in the slogan at the Delphic Temple of Apollo: "Nothing beyond measure." What is KNOWLEDGE. This is Sacred Knowledge: “The word“sacral”comes from the Latin sacralis, which means“sacred”. The base of the sac appears to begoes back to the Proto-Indo-European saq, the probable meaning of which is “to protect, to protect”. Thus, the original semantics of the word “sacred” is “separated, protected”. Religious consciousness over time has deepened the understanding of the term, bringing in it a shade of purposefulness of such a separation. That is, the sacred is not just separated (from the world, as opposed to the profane), but separated with a special purpose, as intended for a special higher service or use in connection with cult practices.

Carl Gustav Jung introduced the concept of the collective unconscious in psychology: ““In addition to our immediate consciousness, which has a completely personal nature, there is a second mental system that has a collective, universal and impersonal nature, identical in all individuals. This collective unconscious does not develop. The difference between “sleeping” and “awakened” in the understanding of KNOWLEDGE, and this obviously depends on the number of reincarnations or the “age” of the soul individually, but is inherited. It consists of previous forms, archetypes, which only in a secondary way become conscious and which give a certain form to the content of the psyche. "(CG Jung" The concept of the collective unconscious. ") Perhaps it is there that the soul plunges into the collective unconscious, until the next incarnation and where draws on KNOWLEDGE, for further improvement. "Awakened" from the "sleeping" are distinguished by the presence of this KNOWLEDGE and this obviously depends on the number of reincarnations of the essence (Spirit).and this obviously depends on the number of reincarnations or the "age" of the soul individually, but is inherited.

And here is what else is said about KNOWLEDGE in esoteric literature:
“Knowledge, knowledge, knowledge! If people thought more about the fact that there is one salvation, then there would be no share of that suffering. All human sorrow comes from ignorance. Therefore, any expansion of consciousness is cooperation with evolution. Any phenomenon that blocks the expansion of consciousness is against evolution. Knowledge will bring an end to the suffering of humanity. " (“Infinity”, Part 2, Para. 428) “If fragments of the secret knowledge of ancient civilizations about matter and energy had reached our time, they would inevitably be expressed in the language of symbols, understandable only for a few initiates. Such minds undoubtedly know that it does not make the slightest sense to display their power … Forced to a kind of underground existence, such people establish contact only with their peers. " ("Morning of the Magicians") "(110) The one who possesses the knowledge of the truth is free. The free one does not commit sin, for the one who commits sin is the slave of sin. Mother is truth and knowledge is consent. Those who are not given to commit sin, the world calls free. The knowledge of the truth lifts the hearts of those who are not given to sin. This makes them free and makes them above all else. But love creates. So, who became free because of knowledge, because of love - the slave of those who have not yet been able to rise to freedom of knowledge. And knowledge makes them free, for it makes them free. Love takes nothing. How will she take anything? Everything belongs to her. She does not say: this is mine or: this is mine, but she says: this is yours. "(The first Christian consecrated apostle Philip.)The knowledge of the truth lifts the hearts of those who are not given to sin. This makes them free and makes them above all else. But love creates.

"It is self-denial, and not at all selfishness, as well as activities aimed at the benefit of others, that is what helps to follow the path of adeptship." … "The uninitiated are empiricists of the occult - scientists" … "Occultism is an exact science in any sense of the word, in while the teachings of even the most capable, but not trained seers, working without outside help, can only have an empirical character "(H. P. Blavatskaya" Fragments of Occult Truth "Article 596 Moscow EKSMO Edition 2003)" A true seer becomes not a person alien to the world, but a friend of reality; for he does not seek to enjoy the invisible in a dreamy seclusion from the world, but his pleasure consists in delivering to the world all new forces from invisible sources, from which this world itself originates, and from which it must constantly be fertilized."(Rudolf Steiner" Occult Science "Chapter 1)" Intimate Knowledge teaches the constant development of all things, both worlds and atoms, and this miraculous development has neither an intelligible beginning, nor an imaginary end. Our Universe is only one of the infinite, countless Universes, and they are all "Sons of Necessity, for they are links in the great cosmic chain of Universes, each being a consequence of the previous one and a cause in relation to the next." (Etc. vol.1 st.100) "Nature gives out her deepest secrets and imparts true wisdom only to those who seek the truth for its own sake, and who passionately dream of knowledge in order to ensure the good of others, and not their own, not a very important person. "(Karma of fate st.277) And here are interesting excerpts from" Kybalion "about KNOWLEDGE and their transmission." Emerald Tablets of Hermes "(Kybalion): “The Masters follow the custom of the Hermeticians and preserve their truth for the few who are ready to perceive and deeply assimilate it. By word of mouth, truth has been (and is) being passed on through these few. There were very few Initiates in every generation in different lands of the world who kept the sacred flame of the Hermeticians alive, and they were always ready to provide this flame in order to kindle brighter the small lights of the outside world when the flame of truth became dim and fogged … These people never looked for either universal acceptance, no numerous followers. They are indifferent to these things, since they know how few there are in every generation of people who are ready to perceive the Truth, and who are able to recognize it if it were given to them … Where the steps of the Master are heard, the ears of those ready for teaching should be wide open,When the ears of the disciple are ready to listen, then the lips come to fill them with wisdom. The lips of wisdom are closed to those who do not understand … The ancient Occultism of India and Persia degenerated and was lost due to the fact that the Masters became priests and priests and so mixed theology with philosophy that as a result the Occultism of India and Persia was gradually lost among the mass of religious prejudices, cults, beliefs and gods. … There is a selection of certain basic Hermetic principles known as "Kybalion" - the exact meaning and content of this term was lost many centuries ago … the area of Spiritual forces (magical civilization) than material elements (technical civilization). The transformation of spiritual vibrations of one type into others, rather than the transformation of some materials into others. The legend of the philosopher's stone, capable of transforming simple metals into gold, was an allegory relating to the Hermetic philosophy, easily understood by all students of true Hermeticism. … Seven Hermetic principles!.. Principle of Mentalism - "Everything is Thought" "The universe is a mental image." 2. Principle of Correspondence (analogy) - "As above, so below; as below, so above." 3. Principle of Vibration - "Nothing rests - everything moves, everything vibrates." 4. Principle of Polarity - "Everything is dual, everything has poles. Everything has its antipode (its opposite), opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree" 5. Principle of Rhythm - "Everything flows, flows in and out, everything has its tides,everything rises and falls - pendulum vibrations are manifested in everything. The measure of the swing to the left is the measure of the swing to the right. The rhythms are compensated. " 6. Principle of Cause and Effect - "Each cause has its effect, each effect has its cause." 7. Gender Principle - “Gender in everything - everything has its own Masculine and Feminine principle. Po manifests itself in all planes. ""
