“To the Ancient philosophers, birth into the physical world was death in the fullest sense of the word, and the only true birth was that of the spiritual soul rising out of the womb of the fleshly nature 🀄️

Just as Narcissus(narcissist), gazing at himself in the water lost his life trying to embrace his reflection 🤳

Narcissus gazing at his own reflection in a serene pool of water. The expression on Narcissus’s face is one of longing and fascination, capturing the tragic allure of his reflection. The water should be crystal clear, mirroring his features perfectly, while a subtle hint of melancholy permeates the atmosphere, symbolizing the danger of obsession.

So modern Humans, gazing into the mirror of Nature and accepting as the real self the senseless clay that is seen reflected, loses the opportunity afforded by physical life to unfold the immortal, invisible Self.” —- 🃏

Into this band of the elect —- those who have chosen the life of knowledge, of virtue, and of utility ——-
the philosophers of the ages invite YOU.”
