5. Esoteric and exoteric component of spiritual knowledge, "right" and "left" paths of spiritual development

Currently, there is an increasing need for an integral concept of the origin and essence of higher Knowledge, which would represent an organic synthesis of scientific, philosophical and religious approaches. The concept that claims this role is the esoteric concept of the origin and essence of religion. Its essence is as follows.

The need to gain knowledge about the essence of the Universe and Man, or, as the ancient sages said, about the Macrocosm and Microcosm, is one of the fundamental needs of man as an entity created "in the image and likeness of God."

Esoteric Knowledge - this is knowledge about the fundamental laws of the Universe, that is, our physical reality.

Exoteric Knowledge are designed to introduce the overwhelming majority of people to the spiritual Cosmos.

As the esoteric doctrine says, in ancient times there was no division of teachings: all teachings were publicly available. As a result of the action of certain laws of evolution, a differentiation of people into those who chose the "right" or "left" path of spiritual development appeared.

The "right" path is the path of White occultism, it is in harmony with the laws of the evolution of the Cosmos.

The "left" path is the path of Black occultism, it hinders the evolution of mankind.

The hidden parts of knowledge were called esoteric - accessible only to "chosen ones".

The open parts of knowledge began to be called exoteric, that is, accessible to all.

Occultism refers to purposeful actions, methods, procedures that:

1) attract secret or hidden forces of nature or the cosmos that cannot be measured by the means of modern science;

2) have the goal of obtaining results, such as empirical knowledge of the course of events or changing them in relation to what they would be without this intervention.

The main occult sciences can be divided into three classification groups.

The first group of occult sciences - disciplines based on objective data: date of birth, physique, skull shape, palm lines, handwriting, etc. Such disciplines include astrology, graphology, chorology, palmistry, and fingerprinting.

The second group occult sciences operates with subjective data, that is, data that a person provides about himself. These are some images of the subconscious that a person himself cannot interpret. This includes primarily various mantric disciplines, that is, methods of divination.

The third group occult sciences - various types of magic, the main purpose of which is the impact on nature and man using occult methods.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Random news from the Archive Mobile phones with 3-megapixel cameras will appear this year 22.06.2004 Three Korean mobile phone makers - Samsung Electronics, LG Electronics and Pantech Group - are preparing to introduce handsets with 3-megapixel cameras as early as this year, the Korea Times reported, citing industry sources. If that happens, then the resolution of phone cameras will triple a year after Samsung and Pantech released megapixel copies. Samsung is first going to catch up with its rival LG and release an intermediate version with a resolution of 2 megapixels, as well as a built-in MP3 player. LG Electronics has already released the LG-SD330 with such a camera, and is preparing to introduce a 3-megapixel camera phone this summer. Pantech is about the same level as Samsung. Currently, commercially available camera phones have a resolution of 300 pixels, which is incomparable to the quality of even the simplest digital cameras. The three-millionth milestone of matrices will make a separate digital camera useless, and this will greatly undermine the market for the latter, primarily cameras of the lower and middle class.
