Chapter I
A GLIMPSE OF THE NEW ERA
The implantation of yoga in America, Europe and Australia has been in the twentieth century around Hatha Yoga, the practice of asanas and the Master Doctor Serge Raynaud de la Ferrire also taught Psychophysical Gymnastics or Pre-Yoga. This has been a benefit to humanity.
However in the Yug, Yoga, Yogism p. 439 indicates:
"Just as it is essential to perform asanas in any of the lines of Yogism, so also the fact of practicing them does not give anyone the title of Yoghi, nor does it even provide the notion of Yoga."
Meanwhile the Age of Knowledge advances and yoga must fulfill its true role on earth to contribute to a wiser, fuller and more balanced world.
When Master Sun Wu Kung, coming from Tibet and Chinese Turkestan, met the Sublime Master Mahatma Chandra Bala Doctor Serge Raynaud de la Ferrire, teaching him his great mission, and he in turn transmitted the thought of Jna to me for 7 years, its Bhumis, Dhatus, Nagasiddhis and Greater Mysteries.
Several investigations were emerging in the world that corroborated this depth of Jna, whose superiority had already been mentioned since the time of the Upanishads.
As we said in the prologue of Art in the New Age, it is in the Age of Knowledge, Aquarius, a precessional Age, begun in its current difficult transition in 1948, according to the astronomical phenomenon of the precession of the equinoxes (which should not be associated with the hippie movement of the 60s, even when they were right to sing, in the Broadway play "Hair", the song that begins by saying: "It is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius ...") ,
We will deal in Chapter III about the difficult transition between two Ages, which occurs during the 20th century and every two thousand years entails an exacerbation of violence, barbarism, wars and great collective confusion and errors, at the same time. time that the phenomena and events of the Era that begins appear, although still subject to the previous Era.
In the 20th century, despite everything, the outposts of the Age of Knowledge are inexorably emerging, of true investigations, of collectivization of the search, that is, of an Era of Peace, of universal brotherhood, of elective affinities, of discovery. of the transcendental man, of friendship, of access to the improvement of the person through the acceptance of the alien and the acceptance of the destiny of universal dependence.
It is an Era of an intimate "angelic" nature, which belongs more to heaven than to earth with a certain altruistic and spiritual aspiration, living in the direction of a supersensible world that is populated with images and sensations, the individual aware of no longer belonging to himself and of giving oneself to a destiny of transcendence or at least extrapersonal, made of non-possession, of purification.
It is an Era of Grace, understanding Grace as freedom to evolve, with prudence and at the same time with daring, which returns the individual to the state of man's identification with the universe.
It is the emergence of the Promethean experience, the gift of compensating a physical inferiority with an intellectual, moral or spiritual superiority; a consecration of superior intelligence to the conquest of a high peak, as well as to the search or investigation of the highest manifestations.
It is the talent of the word that becomes a non-ordinary word and this is transfigured into Verb.
It is the Era of transmission, communication, exchange, interrelation, the union of the sciences through multidisciplinary research, the union of the thought of East and West, North and South, the balance of the Analysis and of Faith, of reason and intuition, of the objective and the subjective.
It is the Age of Jna, Jna Yoga and Jna Vijna Yoga of the Aquarian cycle, with its Bhumis and specific teachings, the emphasis on the spiritual and volitional, active awareness, self-affirmation, daring expressiveness, reflection, planning , Life penetration through re bending, accumulation of mental energy.
Also it corresponds to the revolutions within the roads cultu ral, to sudden events, anticipator, a pioneer. Little by little, disinterest, altruism, a break with routines and prejudices, originality, continuous and renewed modernism, the last cry, the conquest of the record, the enthusiasm of the frenzy, the search for the extreme limits of the impossible.
It is the advance in the investigation of waves, bioenergetics and nervous fluid emanations in the human body, of the electronic world in interpenetration with spirituality, of Cosmobiology, of the synthetic sciences that the Master speaks of, of esotericism, of bioenergy, superconductivity, advanced radio, television, conquering the air, interplanetary travel, aspirations towards endless skies.
The Knowledge of Aquarius, as in classical Greece of antiquity, is found in the Olympic symbol of the young Ganymede who from the Milky Way pours his Jug overflowing with the water of wisdom, gives the germ of spirituality that, based on the transcendental, forms individuality with its superior light in all gradations, from the living synthesis or synthesis of knowledge and research, and the deepening of intuition as the crowning of logical thought, to the perception of reality that leads us to sublime revelations of Mystagogy, as a traditional teaching of the Mysteries.
But it is not only the internal growth of the Being, which when it is only individual, can be limiting and elusive of reality; it is the realization of the transcendence of man (see the work The Discovery of the Transcendental Man) so that the true redemption of individuality then occurs.
Aquarius gives the principle of spirituality that illuminates individuality with the light of higher Knowledge, in the synthesis of knowledge and research, including the deepening of intuition and the sublime revelations of enlightenment.
In the art of the New Age an art of realization awakens, of expression of the levels of the human being's path; it is an art linked to Knowledge, an inspiration that deepens its roots in knowledge.
All that growth is beyond an exciting attempt, especially when it becomes unbreakable will to achieve its goal, something more direct, which can be more intimate without losing its projection beyond itself.
If in the new Age we totally deprive ourselves of everything that Jna entails, it could happen that we have the impression of not having lived fully, or of having trusted or passively hoped that tomorrow would have brought us the corrective experiences that we would have needed, and In this way, always in an unstable balance between what we were and what we wanted to become, we would have followed an uncertain path until in the posthumous days we were surprised by illness and death.
