The Llewellyn Encyclopedia

Term: Methods of Activation and Objectivation of Consciousness

DEFINITIONS

Methods of Activation and Objectivation of Consciousness:

“Unlike the yogis’ methods of activation, the esoteric one is a methodical and systematical activation of passive consciousness by vitalizing the different chakras of the different envelopes. Consciousness in each molecular kind is bound up with its particular chakra. When a chakra is vitalized, subjective consciousness in that molecular kind ensues. Objective consciousness is obtained by the subjective consciousness in the chakra activating that molecular kind in the envelope. As has already been pointed out, only the causal self can use emotional and mental objective consciousness correctly. Until then, the individual will be the victim of his own ignorance and will retard his higher development.

"In each new incarnation the individual in his new envelopes has to repeat the whole process of activation. If the individual has once received the knowledge and has not abused it, he will be given occasions to remember his old knowledge anew in new lives."

Laurency, H.T. The Knowledge of Reality, 1979, The Henry T. Laurency Publishing Foundation, www.laurency.com
