Course IV - Teaching 2: Predestined Souls

The vocation of Cafh is supernatural. Therefore souls called to assemble and fulfill it are predestined.
Of course, all human beings by their potential participation in the Divinity are called to spiritual life. This means to get the highest possible grade of perfection. Here vocation spiritual is vocation given to chosen souls by their especial idiosyncrasy and by their inherent and updated disposition to achieve perfection.
In the world there are currents canalized to spiritual life, and beings called to this achievement can be predestined or not to this spiritual life.
Souls called to perform divine works come predestined to fulfill them by the Law of Consecutive Predestination. On the other hand, human works can be achieved or only partially achieved for they are only attempts made by man to come close to God and respond to the Arbitral Law of Possibilities.
Divine works are differentiated from human works because are integral; they do not absorb one part or certain part of being, but the whole being, and souls that participate in them are predestined. Also divine works are visibly and prophetically led by the Masters.
So the souls of Cafh are predestined, even those who fail in their attempt; those who overcome proclaim by their example the grandness of Cafh and those who fail painfully atone the material aspects of Cafh.
One cannot determine which souls are called to so high destinies, for it is a secret of the Law of Predestination.
So, humanly speaking, all men are possible aspirants to the spiritual life of Cafh. But those predestined to this supernatural ideal upon earth are already counted and just they shall pass through the last door.
Sometimes the Masters give names to the chosen and show them in vision to the Son in charge of their search, but most times the Son has to seek them in the night of the unknown to find them.
Of course there are general factors that lead to think that certain men are possible aspirants to Cafh: good disposition, natural trend, inclination to good and friendly disposition.
But even so the Sons should give to this search of souls a supernatural touch through fervent prayer and fulfillment of established trials.
The spiritual vocation of Cafh is divine and, as such, integral, so it is of difficult understanding for aspirants.
The Sons should not deem lack of vocation the fact that some aspirants find many difficulties in their attempts.
Many men of marked and manifested spiritual vocation collide as soon as they contact the Power of the Great Current. The power of Cafh –concentrated on an inner, unique, precise, egocentric, definitive point– is an entirely different movement from the usual peripheral power of men. As to aspirants, its immense potential looks like inertia, and its magnetic field, totally polarizing the supernatural aspect, looks like disconnected from any rational possibility. Even it is likely that the aspirant does not admit the value and purpose of Cafh and that in his view everything seems confuse and vague. Ancestrally, men get used to an illusory purpose of their efforts: to life, perpetuation in the species, understanding, self-specialization, religion and safety in a paradise.
All this is not a sign of lack of vocation in the aspirant, but adverse states to overcome. Spiritual vocation always brings bitter sorrows when you go against the current and break worldly rules. Also a fierce persecution starts against those who try to elude the rate of the ordinary life; as a principle, even heaven tests vocation through setbacks and disappointments. And the poor soul that refuses any participation of the old man is unable to become the new man. So, prematurely many collapse helpless and discouraged, but the predestined shall know how to overcome the storm and trial, and steadily tread the chosen road.
Many predestined souls, providentially led to the path of Cafh, do not achieve however those high destinies for which they were called, and do not attain the spiritual perfection that had to be the object of their lives.
Seemingly this would be a contradiction, so it needs an explanation.
The Law of predestination leads the chosen of Cafh, but they must strive by themselves to fulfill it by the use of their will and of the Arbitral Law of Possibilities at their disposal.
They are divinely led to the Path and must Humanly travel through it. God chooses those who have to belong to His chosen people. So He says, “Ego te tuli” – “I have taken you”. But the chosen have to exalt this people by their own efforts. Christ says, “Qui vult venire post me, abneget seipsum, et tollat crucem suam et sequetur me” – “He who wants to come with me, renounce to himself, take his cross and follow me”.
Those Sons who were predestined to Cafh must harshly fight if they want to achieve in themselves the divine promises, since predestination does not exempt from the burden of the flesh, from karma or from stigmas of life. Life is harder with discipline and continence, for human habits when repressed take mental forms. Imaginative desire becomes stronger incentive than physical desire; sometimes these temptations become a true hell and make the Sons succumb. Fortunately, by help of the Masters and spiritual forces of Cafh, for the majority of the Sons this crazy temptation is nothing more than a purifying purgatory.
Gradually the will becomes stronger, purifies habits and removes any mental desire.
The power of these temptations never would be defeated if the purpose of the Son is not righteous and totally aiming at the achievement of the divine life; thence the failure of all false spiritual people whose only desires are psychical and phenomenal achievements.
The Sons do not progress on the Path because do not strive and waste forces and help put at their disposal to fulfill their spiritual destiny.
When the Sons get the spiritual realization by their efforts any human law disappears and the Divine Law fulfilled remains in them.
The predestined being is confirmed in his predestination and the divine promises are fulfilled in him. The priest of Cafh has achieved his consecration; he does not need any more symbols or rites to transmit the Teaching to men, but the very priest is the revealed Teaching and Divine image.
Identified with the Great Work, he is owner of the Great Current, and his Substantial Union with the Divine Mother becomes permanent.
He is Director of souls and light for the Sons, and time and changes of life do not prevail against him.
Truly he ties and unties men; instructs bad spirits and calls protective entities. His word may give joy or sadness, and his blessing removes evil and brings peace upon earth and men.
