All the great Initiates were revolutionary people. They disrupted the order of things and were very controversial. Their words always seemed extreme for most of men. Very few people totally adhered to their teachings during their life time.

When he was alive, Jesus scared more than He attracted people, for He was an echo of Truth which is by nature uncompromising thus very difficult to accept for the ordinary man. The great Masters were often regarded by the majority of men as lunatic ! Their teachings became "spiritually correct" only long after their death. Most of Churches, and the numerous cults that formed on the basis of their doctrines widely contributed to "water down" their teachings so as to establish dogmas that a majority of men can accept.

The original teaching of these great Masters was only preserved by some brotherhoods and esoteric movements, that all along History were persecuted by official Churches which wrongly pretend to hold God's word. And it is still the case today.

But the divine creation is perfect and anybody can access the Truth, without necessarily adhering to any religious creed. For Truth lies within each of us and can be revealed to you at any time, provided you sincerely wish it and you accept the path that takes you to it. If you are a real seeker, when day you succeed and develop your discernment. Then the curtain is lifted on certitudes, dogmas and all sorts of mistaken conventions.

Among the most sincere but also the most courageous, this awareness creates rebellion against all the aberrations we usually consider as normal. But such a rebellion has serious consequences, for it means you will be regarded as a marginal in society, and very few people are ready to face this situation.

All the past and present great Masters are marginal, revolutionary, and crazy people. This is normal, because they express messages of Truth which are marginalized in this world of utopia, lie, and hypocrisy. Truth has a price and very few people are ready to pay for it...
