TWO KINDS OF KNOWLEDGE: OBJECTIVE AND SUBJECTIVE
There are two worlds: the external world and the internal world. Each of these worlds has its own reality.
The External World is made up of all the things we know externally. Because we can see and touch them, we believe they are real, and we let ourselves be fascinated by them. But, if we analyze correctly, all these things that make up the external world are transient in nature. Everything passes; people pass, buildings pass, continents pass, animals pass, things pass. In the external world, we form our personality by imitating other people.
When studying Personality, we find that it is governed by social norms, what is allowed and not allowed in a society. Legislation, behaviors, moral and religious precepts, which we learn from society. Kindergarten, elementary school, high school, universities, specializations, etc.
But sooner or later, our physical body will die, and our personality will disintegrate. Everything will pass. What humans don't see is that all aspects of personality, sooner or later, will pass. Many things we were taught years ago were later modified.
Subjective Knowledge or knowledge of the personality atrophies consciousness, alienates it, mechanizes us, turns us into theorists, and atrophies our intellectual center. Frankly, if one wishes to self-realize, the less acquired subjective knowledge one has, the better.
The Inner World is different; in it, we find two kinds of realities. One is the free and conscious essence, 3%, and the other is the essence trapped in psychological defect, 97%. But 100% of our Essence is what is truly important; it is our Being. This Essence is our particular God, the real, the true, the eternal, the beautiful, that which does not pass in each one of us.
Since our consciousness is asleep, we don't even know that we came into this world with a purpose: to know ourselves, to know our particular God. To truly know ourselves, it becomes necessary to understand our inner world, and that is fundamental.
To truly know our inner world, the first step is to observe it, or learn to observe it, as the sense that allows this is atrophied in most humans. When we discover any of our defects and understand that within it one of our sparks is trapped, we realize we must free it. For this, it is necessary to understand why that defect was created, how it is fed, how it controls us, and to implore our Divine Mother to eliminate it.
Then, the essence will be liberated, and once emancipated, its Consciousness will awaken, receiving from the Father its own Objective Knowledge, its vocation or purpose within our Microcosm. If we proceed in this manner with each of our defects, our Being will begin to integrate, and we will awaken an objective knowledge, for it is a knowledge of our Being, a knowledge that does not pass away, it is the wisdom of our own Consciousness.
The word knowledge comes from "to know," which indicates that it is something that must be done personally.
Most of us, in the process of intellectualization, believed that mechanically learning or memorizing was enough, and we became believers of everything we were told, but we have not known anything of what we supposedly know. We missed the most important part of knowing, which is verification.
To develop Objective Knowledge, it is necessary to create the internal bodies, which allow us to gradually come to know the different dimensions of nature and the Cosmos. If we make the mistake of not creating our superior bodies of the Being, we will never know ourselves in an objective way.
Within these bodies, we will integrate the Being and the Knowing.
Inner or objective knowledge is not a matter of theory, or readings, or fictional narratives; it is something practical that we must do based on the Three Factors:
  • If one does not die, the Essence is not liberated, and therefore we do not advance towards Wisdom.
  • If one is not born, the existential bodies of the Being, which allow us to know the different dimensions of nature, are not created.
  • If we do not sacrifice ourselves, we will not consciously integrate into the law of Love either.
We have Seven Consciences, they are embryonic within our Creative Sexual Energy; when we learn to create ourselves, we develop each of these consciences.
  • With the Physical Body, we know the third dimension.
  • With the Vital Body, we will know the fourth dimension, the dimension known as the Jinas paradises.
  • With the Astral Body, we will know all the stars and planets.
  • With the Mental Body, we will know the world of atoms, and we will be able to extract wisdom from them.
  • With the Body of Will, we will know the electronic worlds or planets of Christ, all that is, has been, and will be.
  • With the Atmic Body, we will immerse ourselves in the ocean of light.
Without these seven Bodies or Objective Knowledges, it is impossible to begin to know the Universe and the Gods. The Greeks taught that one must first know oneself in order to know the Universe and the Gods.
Objective Knowledge allows us to know what is real, the purpose of existence, our role in the Universe. It allows us to merge with our BEING.
If we want to reach Objective Knowledge, we must verify and practice these teachings. The word "Knowledge" comes from knowing; if one does not know, one does not have Knowledge.
Because if any person speaks very well, has a good memory, retains different works and authors and all those things, we say: "that person really knows, they truly have knowledge." But what kind of knowledge?
For example, when you teach by rote and without comprehension, repeating what the teachers taught, for you it's a lie, and anyone could tell you: "you are liars, how can you be so sure that it is so?". And this is because you have not yet realized or verified it.
Every Gnostic must acquire their own knowledge. Then you will speak from your own knowledge. The master states everything in his works, all are truths, because I have verified it; but if I were to say, "Master Samael states in a specific work, in a particular chapter, a concrete concept." Any of you could tell me, "You are a liar. Have you personally verified that?"
The master laid the foundations for each of us to arrive at our own knowledge.
