<big>Magies blanche et noire et magiciens (''leçon 125'')</big>
=== en cours de traduction ===
You ask me to tell you "to whom or to what I refer in making use of
the terms White and Black Magic." In contradistinction to the terra "white
magician" the terra "black magician" is now applied to any devotee of the
negative or evil principle of life, and as prefixes, the terms white and black
are so applied because of the difficulty experienced in finding words in the
English language that will exactly interpret Sanscrit terms generally used
to designate interior orders of life. For instance, the terms "Arhat and
Dugpa," indicative of the embodied spiritual intelligences of two degrees
of life have been for long centuries unknown, misunderstood and
misrepresented or repudiated by narrow sectarian devotees of orthodox
forms of religion.
The word "magic," from the root "magi," bas been used for ages in the
far East to denote a sacred science which is inseparable from religion.
An Arhat is one of a very high and powerful order of intelligences
comparable to one order of the Archangels referred to in Biblical lore.
A Dugpa is one of a correspondingly powerful order of intelligences,
who uses his power for selfish purposes, even to the debasement of his
fellow creatures.
During one definite period of time, the middle of a Maha Yuga or
great age, a Dugpa might exert as much or even more power over lesser
orders of life than the Arhat, but the power of the Dugpa is continually
waning, from that period to the end of the age, while that of the Arhat is
increasing.
From the description given by some writers, a Dugpa and a devil
might appear to be synonymous terms, but the wise one knows that there is
a vast difference, for the latter is an irresponsible creature, being one of a
lower spiritual order – the fire elementals – which have never yet been
incarnated in physical bodies.
Evolutionary law makes use of the Dugpa for the testing of a human
being, but it does not willfully or blindly create him for such a purpose.
There is a fine line of demarcation to be found between good and evil,
white and black, positive and negative forces, although not always
perceptible to the average man. In the consideration of White and Black
magic that line is exceptionally fine; it belongs to the order of "little
things" frequently referred to by us – original causes of cosmic-wide
events. It is said that the two paths of White and Black magic run side by
side, and this is true, for a long distance, but there is a certain
definite point where they meet and cross, and one or the other must
disappear from manifested life at that point.
It is a great mistake to dwell upon the thought that any mischance, any
wrong act or antagonistic thought is directly the work of a Black Magician,
for while such may or may not be the original cause of some untoward
event, if it were true that such a cause were set up, the added force
supplied by the secondary vehicle in the form of individual thought, word
or act, may be all that is required to turn the balance of power and bring
into materialized form or action the negative force dominating the
mentality of the black magician, and only waiting a suitable vehicle for
representation. Unfortunately such an entity is liable to find the needed
vehicle in some associate who may have hitherto been all that could be
desired in the way of a friend or comrade, who has been deceived or led
into over-consideration of the importance, or fear of the results, of some
specific action threatened by a black magician. You would neither fear nor
despise a live wire as long as you knew the electric energy passing through
the molecules at any time could not leave that wire and leap into your body
without such a conductor as you atone could supply.
If you will all strive to render yourselves, body and mind, immune to
such entitised forces as the black magicians have been rightly termed – the
great Disintegrators, you will deprive them of so many victims. The words,
"by their fruits ye shall know them", are peculiarly applicable to those
entities, for all the power at their command is used on fines of separation ;
and in no instance may you feel so sure of their malignant presence and
action as when you see some body of former friends or comrades being
torn apart for no sufficient cause. The ability of those entities to
manufacture and furnish what appears to be sufficient cause for such
action, and its ready acceptance by the majority of human kind, is truly
phenomenal.
When a realization of the underlying cause of all human woe and
suffering dawns on the mind of a deep student of life's mysteries ; when
even on the greatest heights of bliss attainable by human kind, there comes
to him the consciousness that such bliss is meaningless, worthless and
transitory unless it can be shared with others ; when one who loves his race
comprehends that he must remain outside of the real life of every other
soul, until he has broken down forever the barriers between them and
himself, and that no effort of his in any other direction can change that
fact ; when he understands that even if he were able to open the physical
heart of a beloved friend and imprison his body therein and close up the
entrance, he would be no nearer the real self of that friend ; understands
that notwithstanding all the longing, the praying, the hard striving,
all the ambition and battling with nature forces to gain something that
never can be gained by him in his present state of development until he can
break down those watts of separation, i. e., union with and perfect
understanding of the thing or creature his desire has been fixed upon ; and
at the same time comprehends that the ultimate cause of all that anguish
and all the suffering, all the loneliness, the useless effort, is due clone to
the separation of soul from soul – of the created from the Creator the
Father – Mother from the child ; THEN – and then only he comes to a
realization of the awfulness of the and the hideous, dastardly, fiendish
work of the Black Magicians and the conscious or unconscious disciples of
the latter, who have been made vehicles for the transmission of this deadly
power.
Only Divine Love can sound the depths of the horrors of that sin, and
only the highest love of which man is capable can possibly sense the gulf
that lies between separation from and unification with God.
Tear down the barriers, children of my soul ! Shut out from your
hearts nothing in the Universe save the thing or creature that would
separate you from other human souls ; for only in union with those other
human souls will you ever find God – find Love Incarnate – find Peace
and Fulfillment.
Every barrier you build between other human souls is a barrier
between your God and your own soul, between your Higher Self and you.
