A conquered powerful silence spreads out in all directions and transforms our trembling, insignificant life in the most beautiful, intrepid adventure.
Vanity and presumption
Close to the Dreamer, your vanity and presumption would be constantly attacked and beaten to death until you would either understand and continue your journey towards integrity, or get hurt in your false pride and leave in indignation.
Self-transformism
As long as you are under the illusion that you know yourself nothing will change for you. You will go through the same troubles, the same unhappiness and the same tragedy, even if you go to the uttermost parts of Earth. To change the outer conditions of Life you must change your inner states. The way out is.... the way in.
Be in a winning state
Be in a winning state, reality will follow. Act in a winning manner when the evidence of defeat is all around you. Act as if you were in possession of victory just for a moment, and then the next moment and the next, and you will see reality miraculously transformed in a permanent victory before your very eyes.
No Gods but You
It is you and no one but you who owns the world.
It is you and no one but you who makes the world happen.
It is you yourself and no one else who can create heaven on earth or the most unbearable inferno.
It is you, and you only, who can transform doubt into certainty, fear into fearlessness, misery into victory.
It is you and no one but you who can transform thievery and crime into a vehicle to return to your forgotten integrity.
It is you and no Gods but You, who, in this very body, can win for all men on earth the Battle of all battles, the War of all wars…
How powerful your dream is
Q. I consider myself very fortunate. I have everything a man can desire and yet I feel very fragile. I am always afraid that everything I possess can be lost in a fraction of a second.
A. Since there is nothing existing but yourself, what are you afraid of? You should focus only on the totality of yourself as your true world. Real life is only inside and nobody can take anything away from you without your consent. Out of that very self you can move mountains.
To increase your power of doing
To increase your power of doing you have to struggle against your love of being negative.
To increase your power of doing you have to make room for your inner light.
Your inner light is the very cause of all that which takes form in the world
of events and has to be renewed every day through self-observation, through
self-love and understanding.
Business and Self-Knowledge
Q. What does business have to do with self-knowledge? A. At the time of a great financial crisis many bankers, businessmen and stockbrokers ‘crash’ also because they totally identify with the failing economy. In what should be a marvelous game of creativity and intuition, they instead are hypnotized to the point that they no longer realize to be the players and not the pawns, the observers and not the observed, the dreamers and not the dreamed. They depend upon external conditions to plan their strategies, and rely upon budgets, reports and financial forecasts to unconsciously build nothing more than a house of cards. But what happens then, when the slightest tremor comes unexpectedly razing it all to the ground? Self-knowledge means freedom from any conditioning or identification with the world around. Self-knowledge puts harmony, order and justice in every atom of your inner world. Its power spreads out in all directions creating a new history and a new destiny, a new past and a new future, a new life and a new man. Self-knowledge is the very basis for success in any field of life.
A man who really knows himself, free from any external conditioning reveals his inner integrity and projects the unfailing world of his Dream.
Self-Government
Self-government is the only way to govern the world. Self-government is the real government. The power of will, once unburied from the most hidden recesses of your being, projects a place where there are no divisions, no boundaries, no conflicts between yourself and the others. Where suffering is, your inner blindness is its very cause, and where conflict is, your misery is its very root. Your healing is their healing and your inner victory, the salvation of the entire world.
Integrity as a permanent state
Q. Can you tell me how to deal with negative emotions? And how to get rid of them? A. Give attention to your inner states whatever they are. Through earnestness and patience you will discover something very precious and very powerful that hides behind their apparent unpleasantness. Courageously dive deep within and draw closer to your negative states. The light of your awareness will make them disappear, and allow you to reach the summit of perfection and integrity as a permanent state.
"The School for Gods" is a novel about the ideas and the philosophy that inspire the School, but also a manifest announcing “the Individual Revolution”, the birth of vertical men, the cells of a new humanity finally healed from pain, fear and conflictual thinking.
