The Power of the Initator

[Guest guest]

"Anyone who can, as a result of deep meditation, start with small

beginnings and try to utter a word to help or heal another human

being, or who can stay in a period of silence for the sake of some

larger purpose of benefit to humanity, can come to know what it is to

initiate.

To gain the power of the Initiator, one must both specialize and

concentrate magnetism and be attentive enough to apply a thought with

such controlled precision and perfect timing to the needs of another

human being, that one can make a permanent change for the good in that

person's life. In the light of Wisdom-sacrifice, Jnana Yajna, good

and bad are merely relative appellations from the standpoint of

differentiated consciousness in time and space.

We grow over a lifetime in making finer and finer discriminations

because the cruder relativities with which we live prevent us from

understanding a great deal of human life. If this is true of the

world around us, it is also true of ourselves."

In continuation to RAGHAVAN IYER's quote about initiating distant

persons for their well being, I wish to point out Japanese Buddhism

contention and practice of chanting "NAM HO RENGE KYO"

According to this school of thought, human life's aim is to send

goodwill to all livings......
