“But you must know that a true Master,
in the spiritual sense of the term,
is a being who, first of all, knows the essential Truths,
not what people have written, created or told,

but the essential after cosmic intelligence.

Second, he must have had the
will to dominate everything, to master and control everything in him, and to have succeeded. Finally, this science and this dominion which he has conquered
must serve only for the manifestation of all the qualities and virtues
of a detached love.

After his detachment you will recognize a true Master.
Every Master comes to Earth
to manifest a particular quality:
there are, therefore, Masters of wisdom, Masters of love, or of strength, or of purity…

But all true Masters necessarily
have this great quality in common: detachment.

There are so many impostors and charlatans ready to take advantage of people’s naivety!
They have read only a few small books of occult science, which have often been written by ignorant people,
and that is it:
they will present themselves everywhere as Great Masters. They bear no sign on them by which to show that Heaven has recognized them;
they have declared themselves Masters and I think this is enough. As for the others, instead of studying such a being
a little to see how it behaves, they follow it with their eyes closed.

He will deceive them, extort money, enslave them, but they will not realize it.
Well, it’s magnificent, here’s at least one intelligent being!
The others are stupid.
Why doesn’t anyone ask where he comes from,
how he lived, who his Master is, who sent him?… Ah, no, no, useless to ask questions; Since he promises
to initiate them in three days by interceding with a few thousand dollars – they believe him.

They are in a hurry, you understand, the initiation should not last more than three days.
The world is full of people like these, jokers, swindlers,
who take advantage of the gullibility and stupidity of others.
But at least they’re smart!
I do not deny that these people have some powers—anybody,
by practicing, can obtain certain powers—
but the problem is to know how to use them and for what purpose.
Here, Heaven pronounces itself:

Heaven is not concerned with the means you
possess, but with how you use them.

What matters to him is not your knowledge, your
clairvoyance, or your powers, but your detachment. You may have knowledge, clairvoyance and powers,
but as long as you are not detached,
even if people recognize you as Master,
Heaven does not recognize you. The unhappiness for people is
their lack of discernment:
if they meet a true detached Master they will not trust,
while the first comer, who will throw dust in their eyes by presenting himself as Master,
will follow.

In reality, a true Master
he will never tell you he is a Master, never;

He will let you feel and understand it, he is in no hurry to be recognized.
On the contrary, a false Master, from the moment he has decreed that he is a Master,
has only one idea: to impose himself on others. I have just received a letter from a man who thought he was capable
of becoming a spiritual guide:
he wrote to me to tell me about his difficulties and anxieties.

Obviously, it was to be expected.
Why did he have to start deceiving people by pretending to guide them,
when he himself was not ready?
From whom did he receive the order to undertake this task?

But here are the people: they believe themselves capable of guiding others
before having the necessary virtues: wisdom, love, purity, strength, detachment.

Not as long as you have not received the order from a higher
Being to take on this crushing task of guiding people,
it is very dangerous to want to play this role.
I would very much like to help this man, because I
see that he is very unhappy,
and he doesn’t even know why.
He imagined that it was enough to read several books on occult sciences
and he went to evoke formidable Forces of the invisible World in order to use them,
without ever learning to enter into harmony with them beforehand.
Well, these Forces are taking revenge; they say:
Why do you try to subdue us, to satisfy your whims?
You are weak, ignorant, and we do not want to obey;
You deserve a good lesson.”
How often do the so-called occultists have no real knowledge of the Laws of the Spiritual World!
I’ll tell you: they’ve read a few books and, without preparing,
they want to impress a few disciples by working miracles in front of them.
They don’t, that’s not how you have to act.

In order to take on the task of spiritual guide,
one must have received a “diploma,” because in the spiritual world one also receives “diplomas.”

The diplomas which exist on the physical plane have their correspondence on the spiritual plane,
in the image of which the physical plane was created.
The luminous spirits who sent us to Earth observe us, measure us
And if I see that we have made efforts, that we have managed to control ourselves
And to correct some of our flaws, they give us a diploma.”

Omraan Michael Ivanhov
