Guest guest Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Disciple: Is the Theosophical idea of giving successive initiations before moksha true? Maharshi: Those who attain moksha in one life must have passed through all initiations in their former lives. Disciple: Theosophy says that jnanis after death have to choose four or five lines of work, not necessarily in this world. What is Bhagavan's opinion? Maharshi: Some may take up work, but not all. Disciple: Are you conscious of a brotherhood of invisible rishis? Maharshi: If invisible, how can you see them? Disciple: In consciousness. Maharshi: There is nothing external in consciousness. Disciple: Can I realize them? Maharshi: If you realize your own Reality, then that of the rishis and Masters will become clear to you. There is only one Master, and that is the Self.
