The reptilian mind
The mind of any reptilian, more than the mind of a dragon, is focused at defeating others. It thinks of striking, of removing the obstacle, whatever the consequences. There is no spirit of competition and conquest in the reptilian mind, such concepts being too evolved, simply the attaining of an ultimate goal of supremacy.
The dragon is raw power. If it is not controlled, it will be subject to its reptilian mind, and we can guess the following disaster. The goal of our techniques is to master the dragon power within. It is important to stay aware of the actions we take. Some of our reactions are pre-programmed, and we dont even know it until the sting of the cobra strikes at someone and Oops, I did not intend to do this, I did not intend to say that. Of course you did not, but it happened. It is all a part of the path to development of mastery.
The dragon part of our mind is the sorcery of the human being. The reptile is the sting that strikes anyone that comes too close for comfort. The tail and thong of the dragon is like a javelin that will thrust itself quickly without warning. It is the letter Tzedek of the Hebrew alphabet. It is the inspiration behind the spells of love and hatred. Without kindness, there would only be terror. Our dragon self is powerful and our goal is to master it.
Look at yourself. When are you quick on judgment? When are you mistreating your fellow humans? When do you lie? Do you choose moments to say the truth and moments to modify the facts? Do you consider yourself to be with integrity? Your thong is the sting of the dragon. You thong is the sword with which you strike your environment, both physical and magical.
Your words are the first aspect of your work with the power of manifestation. The words you choose in day-to-day conversation are the pillars of your ability to create, to provoke events. When you exercise your vocabulary with hatred or prejudice, you are setting flawed foundation for your inner workspace.
Intelligent people can develop quite impressive plans to make the events to occurs as they wish, but are these actions done in accordance with the laws of nature, with everyone concerned aware of the orchestration? The reptilian mind is the source of all manipulation. When one does not wish to face an obstacle, he might as well manipulate the events to emancipate himself without ever having to face the obstacle. This leads to manipulation, chaos, misunderstanding, fear, pain, and anger. An obstacle is always there to face it, or to resolve it. Of course, the solution is not always to jump in the face of the obstacle and try to beat it down with hard blow. Violence is also not a solution, either physically or with words.
The reptilian mind will always opt for the camouflage and the illusion. If it sees the opportunity, it will strike to defeat. This manifests in our human actions and words. It is necessary to stay aware and to act with justice. We do not have the right to ask for justice when we act without it the moments we turn our back. Before we demand respect for our rights, we have to assume our responsibility before our higher spirit, and act accordingly.
