Course VI - Teaching 15: The Spiritual Truth - 1961
Sons of Cafh: the spiritual life is the truth; transform the spiritual life into a truth!
Signs are signs; tradition is tradition; empiricism is empiricism; chances are chances; but just a knowledge, that is essential, determined, formal and evident, becomes a truth.
Sons of Cafh: transform your Spiritual Life into a truth, and convert the spiritual postulates into something true, living and evident.
Sons: over all, make a difference between divine knowledge and metaphysical knowledge.
Divine knowledge is the result of intuitive enlightenment, mystical exaltation and ecstatic sublimation; and also of intellectual speculation and study of texts and traditions; but never is an evident truth since ever derives from study or sublimation of a possible or contingent knowledge about a supposed truth. There is no evident truth if you do not know the subject in essence. The only evident truth about divinity is unfathomable silence, enigma and mystery.
Metaphysical knowledge is whether possible or evident. Sons of Cafh: over all, proclaim evident –or eventually evident– metaphysical knowledge. A concrete and evident knowledge, determined through experimental test, takes steadily root in new souls. This should ever be the characteristic trait in Cafh’s Teaching; a knowledge has to be formed and demonstrated, and very numerous metaphysical notions are in a position of becoming evident.

Many animistic systems, of course with goodwill and good intention, mix up supernatural truths with divine truths, confuse the eager souls and impede them to distinguish between what is possible and what is true, or offer intellectual speculations or theological truths as if they were evident truths, and for a while blind those souls and later leave them doubtful or disappointed. Other systems present physical or psychical phenomena as if they were supernatural, and soon are contradicted by deep psychology or brain biochemistry, which changes psycho-mental disturbances through certain drugs.
All this moves the souls away from the truth and delays them on the Path to their Inner Liberation.

Over all, give the Doctrine to the Souls by means of a clear, accurate and demonstrable Teaching.
The Teaching should be clear, and a lot of paper, too many metaphors, and disperse culture must be removed. Plan a brief, concise and automatic system of information, because human knowledge –metaphysical and spiritual– is enormous and beyond the reach of any individual; Cafh’s instructors must elaborate that system until its eventual substitution for electronic scientific brains.
The Teaching should be accurate, in proper language and time-honoured and applied terms. Language is the soul of facts, and you cannot express them through confuse and improper words. You should recognise the difference between physical states and supernatural states, and between the latter and spiritual states. Every state or concept should have its definitive world, and if you do not know it, you must create it; a new doctrinal language, a true philosophy of the word becomes necessary.
The Teaching is demonstrable; all those things that you teach to the souls must be demonstrated or expounded as an information or a possibility. Just the truth –or the possible truth when it is expounded as such– reaches the souls.
Teach this: the spiritual culture does not neglect a man of general culture, since is part of it. Of course, we mean a properly established culture, which forms men and does not cultivate professionalism.
Sons of Cafh: give the truth!
By means of the truth, the psychosomatic, psycho-mental and spiritual currents of the Son will experience a transformation, different states of consciousness will be surpassed and sublimated, and the soul will come close to the divine mystery.
Sons of Cafh: give the Truth!
Do not neglect to give social sciences to the souls, since the Message of Renunciation is social science par excellence, and the only spiritual current that can give Mystical Body to the new currents of mankind; and over all, Renunciation is the mysterious law that introduces the soul to divine mysteries.
