🍀 For those WHO DESIRE TO ENTER WITHIN - For DISCIPLES 🍀

CHAPTER 11 - Master Hilarion’s note on Rule 21.
🌻 To read, in the occult sense, is to read with the eyes of the spirit. To ask is to feel the hunger within – the yearning of spiritual aspiration. - 4 🌻
557. A clairvoyant watching a revivalist meeting will generally see that non-human entities are gathered round it in order to take advantage of the vast waves of uncontrolled emotion. Emotion is a tremendous force and these waves are, if we consider actual measurement, things of enormous size and power.
They dash and rush about through the astral world in the neighbourhood, and produce all the effect there that a great tempest would show on the physical plane. There are many astral creatures who revel in that. They plunge in and feel the greatest delight and excitement because of it.
They neither know nor care whether the emotion is religious feeling or hatred or love; they want only the tremendous vibration, the swirl and sway of the storm. These beings take the greatest delight in sweeping round in its vortices, and being carried away by it, very much in the same way that surf-bathers do in the sea.
For that purpose these entities will stir up emotion among human beings as much as they can; they simply know that here is something which they enjoy tremendously, so they go to work to intensify it as much as possible. Very largely they are responsible for the great outbursts of force on such occasions, and these creatures make it greater just as a school of whales rushing about in rough water would make it rougher.
They have just about the same amount of intelligence as those animals, so there is nothing very spiritual about it. It is not, as many people think, a divine afflatus, nor is it exactly dignified to allow oneself to be the sport of creatures at that level.
