Me, Myself & I- 8

Physics within the world explores the esoteric workings of the material world, and when applied to occult study it is a science but not an understanding. The mathematical element when combined with occult science becomes disabled to a great extent, for a study of occultism brings with it, into the consciousness and into the life itself, many contesters to propriety.

Occult examination does not of itself denote discriminatory reasoning. It is a hazardous area of inquiry because in its blatant form it speaks of powers and happenings which may awaken also similar desires within the man. As a science it stands apart from us, but not we to it.

Everything a man thinks upon works within and about him ... when we do attempt to comprehend magic and the super-real, the supernatural, and the forces within; when we conjure an elemental being into our assistance, we are attempting to invoke other planes of being and awaken them.

This in itself is destabilizing and quite terrorizing to many facets of your makeover. In other words, this is a caution: that with occultism for occultism’s sake one may endeavor to get into the temple by breaking through the door before you - you may succeed as far as the antechamber, but shall not, by that method, penetrate the inner mysteries. All of nature is veiled; and the illusion of physics is that one has comprehended the being simply by perceiving its constitution (in part).

The gift of Physics as a conjunct to other study elements developed within the student is the practical law of transfiguration and transmutation.

Engineering in this context relates to the useful application of the esoteric know-how made manifest within the physical world to useful purpose. It combines creativity with practicality, and teaches the student of such striving and practice which is for the universal good.

When a comprehension of engineering is reliably achieved there also develops within the student the element of co-creatorship of the worldly scheme. Here is a sense realized into fact - with all of the satisfaction of a demigod to watch thought materialize and do well ....

Confidence, the ability to plan and execute such plans, forward thinking (with the freedoms that rest upon such projections), intelligence and good-humoured wit - these are the qualities invoked by this leaning.

Were a student deficient in this area he should have difficulty assuming concepts later on in his development. There can be a mind-fault which because it is not enstrengthened from the early thinking (esoterically correct with this attribute) gives way and becomes incapable of sustaining the concept for any length of time.

When the esoteric concepts are not executed into helpful actualities within this world then the forces have not the proper means into the etheric to thoroughly saturate and protect the constitution from the very damage they will cause if merely contained.

This is not to say that esoterica is to be imparted on its own level to those who are ill-prepared, but rather that we are to make practical that which we learn in some fashion which expresses our learning to the benefit of others.
