11. Vigilance' tradition

The correct intellectual orientation is enabled by recognition and awareness of world’s duality. Assuming that today, in the vast majority of cases objective knowledge is required, or even worse only statistical records, is much more difficult to find or build up the knowledge originating from the ancient source to reach a possible awareness. It is important to be awakening and vigilant, here and now, in this time and space, as nobody can have a second chance. Today, we can see many people, especially the material sunken mass people, who pass the one-time opportunity of awakening in his everyday life. Seemingly, man is distancing himself from that ancestral source where he/she originates from and should return after his earthly test period. As the crown of creation is the man, he/she is the sole creature, in whom the most light and time was concentrated, and additionally was given the capacity to combine and understand the duality of existence and life.
The tradition of vigilance is embodied in the new revelation, in that infinitely simple and clear explanation that we come from the One and Only and we need to return, in other words we need to change our lives into existence. This is everyone's only one task. Vigilance is intuition and sensitivity carried by the intelligent soul, our universal ego. The highest vigilance is love. Love is not an activity of the soul or the spirit, but an exercise of vigilance. Meaning to be even more vigilant, and be even closer to the One and Only.
In its first form the new revelations and vigilance appeared in the Gospel, teaching us, that Christianity may not be defined as a religion, but rather as an universal tradition or vigilance. Only vigilance is able to comprehend the meaning of existence. Our Initiating Master brought peace and salvation, which is none other than, opening the doors of existence and returning through him. Later one, in the third-fourth century, when Christianity became a religion, and has been transformed into a dominating force (power) returning became threatened. The Christian religion refused life and made salvation/returning dependent of earthly sufferings. According to this concept, the more the suffering on earth, the bigger are the chances of salvation. Misunderstanding the real meaning of the message, life has been proclaimed a suffering, and a valley of tears. Europe needed hundreds of years, to recover somewhat, but in nowadays the chaos still exist and the real values of life were not restored.
During past periods, by ignoring vigilance traditions and spiritually existence has been corrupted by different worldviews and ideologies such as rationalism and its successor the materialism. The spiritual corruption distanced man from everything associated with existence, teaching him to live only for today, here and now, consume as much as he can, because there is no tomorrow. The hope in tomorrow is stolen. The material overconsumption is one of the results of anti- Christianism, which in our time is manifested in an ever deepening material aspect. Europe became more and more modern, anti-traditional, liberal and material, because refuses to be Christian and consumes more than necessary. Ignoring the true values, both the anti-Christian free masonry and the clergy has played their part. One of the solutions to recover from this spiritual vacuum, as referred earlier, would be the re-evangelization of Europe, but we are not facing the realisation.
That is why the new alliance had to be revealed, where man should stand on his own feats, in the front of the One and Only. At the last supper, our Initiating Master did not present the blood sacrifice of the old alliance, but demonstrated man’s weakening capacity, the revelation of his wholesomeness and identification with the One and Only. Bread (all that’s solid) and wine (all liquid) symbolise the dual unity. The Eucharistic message is that there is no partial accomplishment, only a complete one. In the old alliance sacrifice is conditional and external, in the new alliance is unconditional, complete, and internal. The new unconditional sacrifice represents the self-sacrificing love that is found in the great Eucharist, the passion where our Initiating Master takes and carries man and creation on his back, which is the cross. Man is the cross.
