THE PATH OF LIBERATION
Translated by ARIEL Magazine from the book: “Discípulos y Maestros, o los Factores de la Iniciación Espiritual”. The Tibetan. Spanish original.
In order to tread the Path of Liberation the Disciple must keep in mind the following rules, so as far as possible
adjust to them.
Acting. - To live for edifying purposes; to avoid idleness; to serve aggrandizing ideals; not to give in to passions; and not to allow the mind to weaken or to be subdued by any force foreign to our conscience or will.
Attention. - To live always attentive to the higher needs of an aggrandizing life or existence; attend to the imperatives of the spirit; to assume positive mental attitudes, and to use biological, psychic and cosmic forces for a superintending purpose, of an ecumenical, transcendent and purely spiritual nature.
Belief. - It must be healthy, without prejudice, not of mere faith, without vanities, without doctrinal or dogmatic limits; and the conviction must correspond to a broad, cultured mind and ready for the greatest achievements.
Effort. - To commit oneself to a life that is always useful; to have a trade or profession; to make oneself worthy of living and to honor oneself, others and everything one does through high aspirations and noble commitments.
Expression. - Healthy conversation; precision in definitions and in what is spoken; purity of language, and subtlety of motives.
Meditation. - To achieve noble accomplishments through a proper function of the mind; to put Consciousness into operation to satisfy its own objectives; to allow a free, broad and categorical expression of the spirit in itself, and to make the values of the infinite preponderate everywhere.
Nobility. - Pure, spiritual longings vitalized by a mental performance of strong thoughts and constructive; predominate by the haughtiness of purpose and moral superiority, that is, by the powers and virtues of the one's own conscience.
Will. - A firm and invincible decision is necessary; personal control; self-dependence; character capable of withstanding all the vicissitudes of life, with the best moral dispositions and always within the the highest aspirations.
