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.
		
OK

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.

OK

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

----------------------------------

DTB	TRUTH is an invariable -- whether known by many or not

It presents dangers to those who are not innately and wholly
virtuous.

The "fundamentals" have to be known and applied

1	GOD is nature the whole universe
2	every component contains the same potentials, and is
contained in this single entity
3	rules and laws of life and living are the same for all
4	progress by evolution and free-will are universal facts.
5	The 7 universal planes and principles of man are analogous
6	an ultimate goal may be called PERFECTION. 
7	Wisdom has to be applied and taught to others.

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.


DTB	If they work at that and do it.


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


DTB	agreed
