The Inquisition murdered thousands of women who were the healers and visionaries of their people. Call it magic or folk wisdom, it cost them their lives. Because we often fear that which we do not fully comprehend and because religious fanaticism runs high, people with broader ideas often limit what they share. This self-protection keeps concepts from being distorted by those who do not realize deeper meanings which may come through meditation and inner contact. We invoke divine help, and doors often open at such power-filled moments.
Life has a reason and a purpose.
Esoteric teachings offer an overview of this Great Life and its purpose. This set of teachings is called cosmology. It does not mean we do not err but that we are in essence divine and are to embrace the struggle of transformation. Humanity is never left without dialogue with the higher worlds. Perceived by listening ones, all world religions have developed out of the necessity to respond to the message and the knowledge derived from it.
