Course VII - Teaching 13: Initiatory Renunciation

The Son’s practical renunciation leads him to discover the secret of the Universe. So, eventually the Son becomes renunciation.
The whole secret of the Universe lies on one word, on one simple vibratory movement that is essence and existence of harmonious divine and human values.
The Son renounces to books in order to bring the mystical awakening of the word desired; so he keeps his mind virgin, flexible and disciplined by achieving only one book: the Regulation that is an effective and real bridge for the Son to attain knowledge of both divine and human aspects.
The Teaching coming from the Regulation promotes spirit of renunciation and causes the Idea Mother to take form in the mind of the Son. Books are disordered cultures that disseminate ideas on a process of continuous expansion; but these books do not admit a return to the unity of the teaching because they lack the reversible value of the divine aspect.
The Son awakens the mystique of his heart as he renounces to its vibrating peripheral sensations that produce human loves of any kind but darken the Real Love.
The Son’s active apostolate is to realize personally the mystery of the Divine Love and to mould a simple idea by transforming it into a human act. But the Son is obliged to remove any desire of crystallizing the divinity in this act since such an attitude would mean to attain a personal fruit that determines a connection of the individual being with the work. If he does so is obliged to keep, preserve and perpetuate this connection against the divine action ever demanding reversibility of the value attained by returning to the very source of its conception.
Renunciation to knowledge, acquired by human efforts to overcome disordered composed ideas, grants the great of Initiation to the Son, and gives him the magical cosmic power to join to the great family of the universe, to beings that by their egoentia are aware of the creative, preservative and destructive power of the Race’s Divine Mother in a wise identification with the divine expression and human realization.
The conquest of this renunciation, the practice of this renunciation, or rather, the Son’s consubstantiation with renunciation, opens to him the door of a realization achieved through obedience, which is the most active value of the soul in order to set itself free from old moulds of a relaxing freedom tied to its personality, to obtain the reversibility of its own values, according and in tune with the Ired’s movement, which the universal consciousness puts in the potential and active consciousness of the Son.
The Initiatory Renunciation connects intimately human values –offered by the Son– to those divine values –that have been granted– and ties him in tune with the universal family and makes him fit –makes him fit alone– to his priesthood, so that this act be beneficial and sanctifying, and his priesthood be established in his soul and in the souls. He has contacted the divinity by crystallizing his value as an ordained Son –this is the work that every Son intimately wishes.
