Thank you for including that quote Ray! Yes, this is a quite necessary aspect of adepthood. One will dissociate from the consensus culture and look within with peace and silence.
Let me give an example, our Lord Jesus Christ. He wandered for years before returning to the Holy Land to serve as the Christ. That time of solitude was very necessary, and he came back and served with a pure heart, fulfilling his purpose and service.
It is not service to self to retreat to do the inner work. It can be, sure, but that depends on the individual. But even so, it is an aspect of the path of adepthood, which both positives and negatives may tread.
“If you can’t love yourself, how are you going to love others?” One cannot serve as a vessel for God’s Will when he is impure and unbalanced. The Fiery Serpent, the Kundalini, cannot flow freely throughout the energy when it is not in equilibrium.
Not all service is flashy and showy. White adepts radiate love and Light to the planet and the population. This is service that we do not see or know about, yet it is a vital service to others.
The power to affect positive change can be done through visualization, but this requires training.
Finding that place of Silence within is so important, and it’s much harder to do that when one is constantly busy and caught up in daily life affairs. We are working with subtle but powerful energies. This can wreak havoc when not worked properly. Hence the relative solitude and dissociation involved in magical/spiritual training.
