What I do not believe is that meditating on starving people and seeing their stomachs growing large with food is going to do them any good. Many people believe that if you meditate on something as specifically as that it will happen rather than acting to bring about the changes in the political-economic structures which will end starvation in this world for ever. I believe that the only way starvation will end is through the principle of sharing being accepted and a mass programme of aid for the Third World being activated by the nations as a whole. Man must act and implement his will. Others state that meditation, without the basis of a good character is dangerous.
All meditation is dangerous in that it upsets the status quo .
This process of disturbance and re-establishing of equilibrium is repeated over and over again until the third initiation can be taken. Good character should not be equated with total control of the lower, personality, nature. If total control were required to begin meditation no-one except the highest initiates could start. Eventually three fires or streams of energy are put down by the soul and constitute the channel of communication between soul and brain. Through that channel the Light, Love, and eventually Will of the soul can make their appearance on the physical plane.
