71 – Resurrection — Endless Path

Torkom wrote four volumes of books on the esoteric meaning of the Teachings of Christ, covering the subjects of birth, life, transformative power, and resurrection of Christ.

            I know many, many people who entered into the path, and they were so happy that they were becoming initiates and masters. Even many disciples, after ten, fifteen years, they came to me and said, “Torkom we became masters. We are great initiates. We are doing great works, teaching and writing, counseling, and we became great ones.” I asked, “Where is your focus of consciousness? One day, observe it and find out where is your consciousness.” Is your consciousness activated by fear, hatred, irritation, gossip, criticism, belittling other people, slander, and malice? If the answer is yes, you have them, you are not an initiate; you are a gopher. You are really creating great destruction and you are preparing your own destruction.

            So the resurrection teaches us something very important. Resurrection says to us there is no time. You are going to work on yourself, you are going to be serious, you are going to be solemn, and you are going to take your own life under your control and step by step master it….

            Talking about these things helps little if you do not practice them daily. The practice must start from tomorrow with your thoughts….so that you start controlling your thought because your victory is the victory over the thought….

            I know all of you are really trying hard. I know that. It is a wonderful thing for everybody to feel that there are human beings on this earth who are doing their utmost in these hard conditions to master their limitations. It is so beautiful to feel the young ones, elderly people are trying to surpass themselves….

            Our energies come from those people who resurrect themselves. Each time you transcend yourself, you emanate, you radiate more energy and you transmit more energy from higher realms. You create a greater life for this planet if you conquer yourself….

            So, the foundation of resurrection is to conquer yourself….
