During the Month of April 2011, Torkom's blog articles (#62-71) will focus on the theme of Resurrection and Easter. We hope these articles inspire you to learn the deeper meanings of Easter and the process of Resurrection.
…The greatest trap is the mental body. It is sometimes easy to release yourself from the physical plane and conquer it. It is sometimes easy to conquer the emotional body, but the mental body is so sneaky. The thoughts are so subtle. You think you are catching them and then they slip away….
There are seven traps that we must conquer in the mental plane. People are resurrected by conquering these seven steps.
The first step is called the thoughtless state of consciousness. In this state of thoughtlessness, man obeys the thoughts of others and he is like a machine….Their mind is not in action yet, and the human soul, which is the one that is going to be resurrected, is chained in the mental plane.
If man conquers thoughtlessness and starts to think, to use his mind, he enters the second step, which is called the earthly thoughts stage. In this stage man thinks only about earthly interests. His body is very important. His urges and drives are very important,…. It is very difficult for these people to achieve resurrection.
Resurrection cannot be given to us. We are going to take it….You must use all your efforts, energy, daring, courage, so that you release yourself from the earthly thoughts…..
