CHAPTER 11 - Master Hilarion’s note on Rule 21.

🌻 When the disciple is ready to learn, then he is accepted, acknowledged, recognized. It must be so, for he has lit his lamp, and it cannot be hidden. - 2 🌻


562. People who make remarks like those forget the general principle which lies at the back of all occult progress. Their objection is exactly the same in nature as that which is so often brought against the law of karma.

People say they cannot see the justice of certain things that have happened to them, and therefore there is no law of justice. “Justice is not to be had – it is a delusion.” That is precisely what it would be to say, “I have made a machine to go by hydraulic power, and it does not work; therefore there is no such thing as hydraulic pressure.”

No sane man would say that; he would begin to look for the fault in his machine, knowing that the laws of nature are invariable, and mistakes are not made along that line. No one would take that attitude with regard to a law of physical science, yet people will do it in connection with the law of karma.

If they would begin with the hypothesis that the law of karma exists, and that it invariably works, then, when they cannot see how it operates in a particular case, they would attribute the fault to themselves and their limited vision, and not make so foolish a mistake as to say that there is no such thing as the law of karma.
