Esoteric Thinking
A collection of articles and essays by Donna Mitchell-Moniak

All My Relations - Many are meditating and praying for peace. May I suggest that that is not a conducive action for disciples right now.

Aries Moon 2005 - Christ is the seed. This is celebrated each year at Aries and Easter. He is the seed of soul. Many things come together in Christ.

Be a Full Expression of Divine Quality, Part 1 - Esoteric Psychology is an invitation into the fullness of one’s self. It is an invitation to what is below the surface of habit, everyday tasks, and appearance. The invitation, then, is to be the fullest expression of the energy qualities that one is.

Capricorn and the NGWS - It is said that the Lord works in mysterious ways, yet not so much so once you get the gist of how He works!

Deeper than the Da Vinci Code - Forget Dan Brown. Forget the fictional story woven out of speculations that have surfaced and resurfaced many times since Christ's life and death. But let us not forget hidden meanings, deeply hidden ones. Something more lies behind the stories of Mary Magdalene and her life with the incarnated Christ. But what is it?

Deeper Understandings about Dying: March 2007- As some of you know, a dear friend of mine is dying and I was with her for a week doing hospice and since then have been in meditative rapport with her. This has brought forward certain knowings that you might find interesting

Developing a Sense of Self - It is a grave error to work toward the ideal of no-self before a self is firmly established.

The Evolution of Consciousness: the mutable and fixed crosses: October 2007 - Consciousness evolves. Various macro-influences ensure that. The mutable and fixed crosses are such. To think that the ‘modes’ are merely astrological factors would be a mistake.

Going up to Bethlehem - The story of the birth of the Christ child is the birth story of humanity.

Goodwill Festival - Meditative Suggestions - Before giving some meditative suggestions for the Goodwill Festival, may I share this: Meditation can change the world.  A meditative attitude is par excellence the one tool that any human being needs to change one self, one’s relation to others, one’s environment, and the world. Therefore, meditate, meditate, meditate.

Hidden Power: the 12th House: June 2007 - From the soul’s point of view, planets in the twelfth house are not only important but particularly placed. Planets in the twelfth house represent hidden power, and if accessed by the soul would ensure that the purpose of the incarnation would be accomplished.

Islam: a Historical Height of Culture: 2006 - History repeats itself, or at least human beings do.  Thus we create the same often destructive situations over and over again.

Made Brand New: the True Meaning of the Aquarian Age: June 2007 - I have been impressed several time this year by the Christ’s statement, “Behold I make all things new.”

Once a Full Moon: Beacon Magazine 2001 - The Tibetan tells us that the full moon cycle of activity is a five-day period: two days before, the day of the exact full moon, and two days following. Many read those words and increase their meditation thereby, but do we understand why this is so?

Pondering Identity: September 2005 - In pondering the factor of opposite poles or how identity creates other in order to know itself, a few things arise as obvious.

Saturn the Satyr: The satyr, a mythological creature, half man-half goat, is one image used for Saturn. This playful image was made grotesque and malefic by Christian authorities as they tried to pry paganism from its ancestral roots. The images of the satyr and Saturn have not been the same since.

The Secret of Translation: Esoteric Quarterly 2006 - The Tibetan writes of the secret of translation. It is the secret of the human kingdom. It is the secret of its power and its realization.

The Tenor of the Times - This year, 2005, in some ways is quite particular. Astrologically, numerically, and in relation to the Seven Rays of Life, 2005 is moving us all.

What is Consciousness?: A response to a student

What is Service?: Beacon Magazine 2003 - Many people do good works; works generated from a sense of giving, understanding, or a sense of responsibility. Living in the modern world there is no shortage of opportunities to assist a person or a group, a community need or a global one.

A World of Thought: There are mini-worlds within the planetary world in which we live. Words are worlds; ideas are worlds; cultures and their traditions are worlds. And the work of the Tibetan is a world, in no way different than the worlds of physics, economics, or music. Let’s enter this deeper.
