THE DANGER OF THE POWER
|
We will study in this
occasion the meaning of what are usually known as symbols, signs and
forces of power. The spiritual path
may seem extensive with doctrines, philosophies, cults and religions,
who promise spiritual missions. And going to the specific point, we can
see esoteric rites about discovering the power of the inner animal and
this issue can be confused and interpreted in the wrong way.
Man, is above the
animal and he has the spiritual responsibility of taking care, guiding, even loving and protecting the animals. He can clearly find
beautiful analogies of strength, sensuality, sensibility, etc. in
them. The lion symbolizes a
king. Among the insects, an ant symbolizes hard work, diligence. And
all this emulates an
inner power. It is true that the
animals live in the world. And we also do. Their behavior is natural,
spontaneous, decided, noble and many times
is commendable. But is very important
to realize that esoteric doctrines that defend the name, animal of
power, may be confused and don't understand. The animal is not above
man. The animal does not strengthen me. I can take the symbol,
interpret it but it does not give me anything spiritual. This does not mean
that its affection and surrender, does not motivate me. But what must
be very clear is that its spirit does not incorporate with mine to give
me strength and
spiritual wisdom.
I don't mean that I
can't learn or recognize their noble attributes : How not to appreciate
the freedom of the birds, the happiness of the dolphins jumping in the
sea. The wonderful web of the spiders.
Of course that I can
find a lot to contemplate and wonder. But I understand that this is
God's creation. And they are creatures and not gods.
I will not incline in
front of a bull, or tiger or bear or whatever animal could be. I will
admire them as creatures created by God. I will enjoy their presence and
will take care of
their habitat. But there is no
animal with spiritual power. The power is not in them, it is in the
Creator.
