The path of initiation, for me, after reading The Brothers of the Third Degree, and reading Clare de Lis' dictations, is about facing life's many challenges with resolute purity and God-presence. Challenges may be intentional; e.g., as given by fello Heartfriends or mentors, or planned by the Universe, as in coming in contact with people who would normally irk us. Can we stay centered in God? Can we respond with kindness or at least with understanding? Can we state our own truth, moment by moment, by words given appropriately and briefly and by actions which are probably more determinig. Actions can include the feeling tone involved in simply existing. In a sense, how we live moment by moment is the way of passing initiations.
