Sensations
We seek them too low down; rising towards those of the spiritual world
November 8th 2026
Human beings have honed the life of the five senses to perfection. They imagine that in this way they will know and understand everything. They know many things, to be sure, but the activities of the five senses devour all their psychic energies, so that they have none left to awaken their other faculties of perception. Sensory overload! Clearly, human beings are increasingly devoted to the pursuit of intense sensations: they want to see, hear and taste everything, to have fun, fight and shout…They think that this is what life is all about. No, it is only one aspect of life. They are living, it is true, but on a level that conceals true life. People always set their sights too low… when they should be looking on high.
Those who come to understand this will strive to eliminate many of the sensations that obstruct true understanding, true vision. By means of thought, they will seek to rise in order to experience sensations of a different nature, a different quality, that reveal to them the wonders of the spiritual world.
