The majority of ordinary humans currently fall under the category of NOT being on the ladder of initiation, but this does not mean they lack the potential... consciousness is increasing rapidly in these times. In many cases, it can take lifetimes to reach initiation, and these initiations aren't always on a conscious level, but the shift will take place in the dream state in most cases...Every human is a member of one of the seven ashrams (automatically) once you have reached the third initiation. For every initiation that takes place, an ascended master is with you to carry out the ritual and give you their heartfelt blessings.. your allocated master and ashram is determined by your soul ray, to find out more about this you can research 'the seven rays' by Alice Bailey. Your soul will remember where you left off the previous life, this means that you will NOT start the initiation process from scratch, wisdom is obtained and you will continue to evolve...
There are countless levels of initiation, but today I'd like to mention the five that we go through, as humans on the 3D plane...
First initiation (the birth to spiritual life)
Control of the ego over the physical body will be obtained.. even if this is not perfect, the control at this stage is sufficient enough to demonstrate that the initiate understands the basic principles of avoiding greed and gluttony. When the ego is balanced the initiate is able to overcome any addictions and understand the term 'moderation', in effect will remember to treat the body like a temple.
Second initiation (the baptism)
At this stage the initiate will gain full control of the astral body. The emotional body in it's natural state, should be functioning on a love frequency and the initiate will no longer feel selfishness but instead will have a fresh impulse of aspiration and an urge to serve. The control of the astral body also means that the intuition will increase and begin to play a big role in the disciples decisions and conduct in life. Usually several lives will intervene between the first and second initiation until the lessons are complete, a struggle to overcome the desires and emotions of the astral body.
Third initiation (the transfiguration)
The initiate at this level has developed clairvoyance and clairaudience. Once the second initiation has been obtained, the development on the third is a lot more rapid. He/she will have a vision and plan to give his share to the world, if this opportunity is recognised by him/her and reacted to, this work may provide control of the mental plane that the initiate is lacking. Mental control means that he/she is able to manipulate thought-matter which includes the laws of creative thought. For this initiation the disciple must also have theoretic and practical knowledge of the material world. The light reaches the initiate directly through the monad, this means that he/she serves as an anchor point of transmitting divine energy into the three worlds of human endeavour.
Fourth initiation (the crucifixion)
At this level, the initiate may start to remember previous lives. The fourth degree is best depicted by the life of Jesus, this is the most difficult initiation but also greatly rewarding. The soul is 'in between worlds' battling the pure spirit and the personality. This initiation is difficult due to the fact that the soul itself must be transcended, this is a realisation that the soul consciousness is not the end. All earth bound karma will be ended and the disciple will no longer be required to incarnate in the 3D.
Fifth initiation (the resurrection)
The initiate must have reached 75% light quotient to reach this level. This state represents perfection and liberation, at the point of initiation he/she is given various spiritual paths that have now opened. There are seven paths to choose from, only one of them is continued service on this planet (called the path to earth service) The choice of which path is not granted by the masters and doesn't occur until the sixth initiation. The initiates destiny will be correctly chosen and followed through with the ascension.
I hope this gave you some insight on the first five initiations...

No problem, Agarther. The Ageless Wisdom is not a religious dogma, that makes demands upon potential aspirants. It is a gift to humanity, given selflessly by the Spiritual Hierarchy, to those who seek this gift and are ready to factor it into their lives.....regards, Drekx
Not to worry at all Agarther my friend, thank you :)
Movella and Drekx I didn't want to appear impolite.
Blessings my friends
I think I had my aha-moment, thank you
No these are not theories, they are esoteric truisms... I am not the kind that will post about airy fairy speculations lol..
From my experience it is so rewarding but of course you have free will.... Blessings to you Agarther..
and if you mean that those are not just theories but real tangible tools to work with, now thats interesting
I always wanted to know more about myself, and that sounds like the olympus of self realization, I felt myself always drawn to such theories, idk, lol :)
Of course, the choice is yours.....
My rays are; 3-7-4-6-7......My daughter's rays are; 2-3-4-4-7
Now, upon this basis, one can keep focus upon control of psychological vices and enhance virtuous qualities, so allow full co-ordination of the personality, with polarity tending from emotions [astral,] to mind [mental,] to Soul alignment, allowing spiritual polarity and true self-realization.....
