The main danger of Witchcraft is that you have essentially made a choice of an "esoteric teacher" whenyou adopt a guide from the Astral World. The beings of this plane, as well as those of the Causal Planeand Mental Plane are "waiting". What they are waiting for is the opportunity to be born again in aphysical body. They are waiting because the only "gate" from the lower worlds to the Spiritual worldswhere GOD lives is the Human Body. You must establish a rapport with GOD while physically alive as aHuman being to return to Heaven. The generally recommended way to do this is to contact a LivingSaint and ask for initiation. An astral entity is someone who did not do this - he has died now and mustwait for the chance to be born again when he will again have the opportunity to search for a Living Saint.Therefore, a "spirit guide" can't guide you to anything of any real importance. Actually, he or she is inworse shape than you are because this entity cannot get into heaven from the situation which it ispresently in. So, obviously, it cannot help you get into heaven either. It can do certain things for you thatwill make your life more pleasing like tell you the future and the past.However, to settle for this in place of looking for a Living Saint who can put you in contact with GOD sothat you will never have to be re-born again as a Human being, is to make a very poor choice for anesoteric teacher. This is the main danger associated with wanting to know about or practice Witchcraft.The fact that you are settling for second best, or third or fourth best, when Living Saints are here onEarth right now who can start you on your way to GOD.PROCEDURE FOR THE CALCULATION OF THE "TRANSCENDENCE INDEX" OF A PLANETThe "Transcendence Index" of a Planet is a quantity which reflects the number of souls who successfullyleave that Planet and return to the upper Spiritual regions so that they need not be re-incarnated again.Data to compute the transcendence index is available only to those beings whose job it is to carry outthe work of the Lord by personally taking developed souls who have completed all of their karmas out ofthis creation and delivering those souls into the presence of God.Planet Transcendence Indices are commonly low in the Iron Age, but they should not be zero. A zeroindex would mean the life forms were making no progress at all. In such cases, an event sequence isusually programmed to "shake things up".LUCIFER'S ARGUMENTWhen Lucifer was "employed" in Sub-System Administration, he was reportedly saddened by the factthat so few Souls were making any real progress. His argument to his superiors was that this should bechanged and that it was not right to have a system set up so that essentially no one could escape fromit.It is supposed to have been this "humanitarian attitude" which cost him his job and got him sentenced toisolation on Earth. His bosses had grown accustomed to the status quo and, in this last stage of thecycle (Iron Age), were not willing to change.Lucifer's bosses, known as the Controllers (Archangels in the Bible) are "controllers of the third level" orthe Causal Plane. Therefore, in civilizations where the level of awareness or consciousness was higherthan the third level, they had no control. It was in their interest, therefore, to make sure people did notevolve above the third level so that they would not lose their influence over them.Lucifer's argument to "let my people go" was clearly not a hit with them.OCCULT STUDIESEveryone makes his own choices in life. I personally feel it is silly and a waste of time to study the OccultSciences because if you study the Spiritual Sciences instead, in the course of your studies, you willautomatically "pick up" the Occult Sciences. Spiritual Science students never actually practice the OccultSciences but they just can't avoid knowing about them since they generally must be mastered before thereal Spiritual Sciences are.I will now list some books which cover the Occult Sciences in case you wish further literature on them.Mystical-ebook from site-T.E.X.T..doc Page 44 of 964 June 2008
