Most of the knowledge human beings seek to acquire helps them to earn a living or to shine in the company of others. It is of no use to them in overcoming life's trials, sorrows and disappointments. Initiatic knowledge, on the other hand, may not help them find a job or impress their audience, but it supports them in their inner life. Initially you will not fully understand the benefit of this knowledge because it acts slowly, in depth, and it does not produce great results immediately. And even if you have won a few successes, it may well be that no-one around you is able to recognize the peace, light and beauty in which you are living inwardly. But one day you will come to realize that you are not getting a great deal out of this ever-growing body of knowledge that presents itself to you on a daily basis and you will then turn to initiatic knowledge. This knowledge is about you as a person. It gives you the ability to work on your own matter so that you may reach a stage where you always have control of yourself, in whatever situation.
