I'm re reading a great book by richard smoley who is the former editor of gnosis magazine called inner Christianity.I just want to focus just one aspect of the book where he touches on the elements and their correspondence in the human organism.He equates the earth to the physical body,the psyche to water,the spirit to wind,and for some reason he leaves out fire but he then talks about a fourth tier as the kingdom of god,gnosis or divine consciousness which I'm taking that to equate with fire.These seem like very intuitive correspondences,as opposed to the many varying contrived compilations that so many occult teachers list.These various teachings rarely agree and their correspondences vary widely.His insight on the elements struck me very intuitively and immediately compared to these list people make up where it seems so contrived and only leads to confusion.one teacher says earth equates with this,fire with that, and another will have his list which differs completely with the first.The more i read the more is see some knowledge so obviously comes ordinary consciousness and other nuggets come from a higher level of consciousness.

Expect nothing, or you will get caught up in the future and not pay attention to the present. Just do the practice diligently, do it because you enjoy it, do it because you believe in it. Don't wait for results, don't wait for it to happen.
