I would explain this as a truth that only a select few know. Whether
it is because they take the time & effort to learn it, or they
inherently know it.

 
> 2 "Occultism."

Practices that take advantage of natural phenomena. Occultism usually
implies it is used in a benevolent nature. Practicing occultism to a
certain extent implies you are an esotericist, because you are aware
of laws that only a select few people know.

I'm unsure of what you mean by this. Could you explain a little further?

Judge mentions this in his writing, but intuition alone leads most to
believe that we are in a maturing spiritual age. In the future we can
safely assume that people will be more altrustic in nature.

By learning from your higher self, your physical body becomes the
expression of your spirit, rather than a product of your environment.
