Mystical Cognition Path
A vessel that does not carry the light of life,
cannot be called a lamp, but merely a urine container.
Rumi
Blessed are those who do not know.
For those who know are the curse of this world.
Navis Nord
Mystical Cognition Path is a proposal for open-minded people, seekers and Finders of the Truth, people ready to meet its different faces and ways of transmission, always based in a specific time reality. A way for those who long for a total fulfilment and integration, transcending emotions, expectations and imaginations.
A mystical message is heard in stories, novels and poetry. But it is most discoverable in silence of prayer and meditation. In courses we explore teaching of great masters of humankind and original texts of mystics from different traditions. We learn meditation techniques and mysteries of the true prayer, which, in Station Nord becomes an authentic ego slaughter.
We shape the skill to observe basic inner discipline, without which our spiritual journey will never begin. We develop understanding of ourselves and others. We learn about consecutive stages of consciousness development and conditions that must be met in order to advance. Many of us search for a guide on their path – a source of inspiration. The meetings hint how to search and what criteria to consider when selecting a spiritual teacher.
Our meetings create skills to learn from different mystic, religious and mythological transfer sources. They are not study of religions, study of neither culture nor theology. We propose discovering of texts from Judeo-Christian-Islamic, Greek, Egyptian, Hindu, Buddhist and European philosophy classics, with their simultaneous translation to a language comprehensible for the modern man.
We return to our roots. During courses we study texts from different mystical or religious traditions, to learn our own inner language, our premonitions connected with the Sacrum zone contact. Denomination or its lack is meaningless here, mysticism transcends denomination. Learning to read mystical texts from different traditions, gives you a necessary tool for self-cognition. To learn to read yourself is the first step to follow your own path.
The courses have the character of teaching that answers needs of every participant; they are a live, experience-based transfer, unpredictable and unrepeatable.
They open the gates to Cognition, without enforcing any ready solutions.
It is an invitation to a spiritual journey on the traces of great teachers and mystics, which is aimed at obtaining the state of readiness to meet Value, God, Absolute, Enlightenment or Union.
Topics within the course cycle:
- Man’s place in the world and their nature
- Illusory nature of reality
- Cause and effect teachings
- Meditation and prayer
- Deity and God concepts
- Final and stage objectives for realisation
There is a knowledge that has accompanied humankind since the dawn of ages.
There is a knowledge that is finished and nothing can be added to it. It can only be updated, to make it understandable for people in different times and different places.
There is a knowledge that gives fulfilment, Wisdom, Love and for which thinking and action go hand in hand.
You will study other religions on your knees
not to believe them, but to learn from them.
Zarathustra
Question frequently asked of Navis Nord:
What does outside practice consist of?
The outer form of practice is the least important, and it depends on what tradition you grew up in. The inner Path is created when we grasp the quality Objective (from the Realm of Divinity) and it is the quality Objective that sets the way. The way is integration on nine levels (the Essence of Nine Paths) and accomplishing the Objective.
The Objective sets the Method (!), which may use 100 techniques (sometimes from different tradition), but they must act in synchronization and with synergy. This is what we call the Unity of Method. The Unity of Method enables us to reach the Objective, a lack of method unity means we are unable to achieve anything.
It would seem that the inner Path is the essence of Spiritual Path, is that the case?
Yes, that’s correct. A religious man is a man of the inner side, who organizes the outer forms so that the inner forms may work properly.
We work with 4 kinds of consciousness: everyday consciousness, dream consciousness, post-hypnotic and para-psychological consciousness and the Other Realm Consciousness (Divine or – if you prefer – Enlightened consciousness). We develop some Pillars of Consciousness in order to take control of our lives: Emotional Consciousness, Mental and Mind-state Consciousness, Impulsive Human Nature Consciousness and Body Consciousness. We also develop perfect concentration and integration.
Can I participate in Mysticism classes if I am an atheist?
Yes, the outer form is of little importance. You need not believe in anything, in order to believe, you must first learn what to believe and what not to believe. You must learn in our classes how to verify what we teach. We teach how to look, not what to see. If you know how to look, you will be able to see. Whether you accept or reject what you see is up to you. It might be even easier for an atheist, since they do not believe in a whole number of things they should not.
Do you study all religious sources?
No. Firstly, that would be useless, since most of these sources are incomprehensible presently and therefore useless. We only study the sources which help us understand important human issues today.
Secondly, definitely no, because we look for something fresh and juicy, full of nutrition and not a dried, petrified old cherry, dug up among the fossils.
Why do you study so many Deity concepts?
Not as many as it seems, but if you wish to understand the concept of God, it is sometimes helpful to become familiar with concepts of different traditions in order to comprehend what a God or Deity concept is in the first place. To study other paths frequently helps us to understand our own, and it lets us discover which concept is the shortest way for us..
Can I start some exercises right at the beginning?
At first using techniques is usually harmful. Whether you practise prayer, meditation or yoga, you practise yourself and you strengthen all the negative tendencies that you have. This does not need to be practised! A technique works in accordance with the context, with activated psyche processes and in accordance with understanding.
Surely, there are people who can start right away, but those are rare cases. Then there is a stage at which exercise is useful. Before you may start sensible practice, it may take 2-5 years. The next stage is a stage where exercises are useful.
Yet in spite of that, with us you will change very quickly, it may be the case that after one day of classes you will not be able to recognize yourself. Initially, there are many faster methods we teach than prayer, contemplation or meditation of the pre-elementary and the elementary. The foundation of development is to participate in a basic education programme. Throughout the first 5 years it mostly consists of the material form of Existentiology. The next 5 years is Existentiology and Mysticism, with elements of mysticism being more and more frequent. You may complete your education after the first 5 years – certainly the quality of your life will increase and the accomplishment of your goals will be easier. After the first stage, the candidate is verified – this reveals whether they may move on to the next stage or if they must stay and review the material for the next 5 years. We are not looking for worshippers or supporters. Here, you must develop or leave! But the way is open for everyone.
When am I mature enough to choose an own Path?
Frankly speaking: never! You might ask why. Because it is not you who chooses the Path, it is the Path that chooses you. Try finding one Prophet in the Bible, who chose a path on his own. You will not.
