Elimination of a defect is performed by divinity. Elimination of psychological formations is done by the Divine Mother in us.
She, the Divine Mother, has the power to create life and to take it. She is Athena, Kali, Tara, Mary, Hera, Aphrodite. There are two ways she can eliminate our defects and free us from suffering.
In the positive, upright way, her power to destroy defects is called Kundalini, Candali, Pentecost, and many other names. It is the symbolic weapon she gives the hero, like Theseus, Perseus, etc. when they need to kill Medusa, the minotaur, etc. She is able to accomplish this if we have saved our sexual energy and dedicated it for her use. The right to wield that weapon must be earned through upright action and initiation, a subject that is far beyond the scope of this book. You can learn about it in The Perfect Matrimony by Samael Aun Weor.
In the painful, slow, and regrettable way, the Divine Mother is Persephone, Kali Ma, the goddess of death and hell. Those who do not eliminate the psychological errors by their own will are subjected to purification in hell. That is the domain of the Divine Mother as Hekate, the Goddess of the Underworld, who oversees the purification of conditioned consciousness.
Therefore, whether by our will during our daily life now, or against our will while descending into hell after death, the Divine Mother cleanses us of our errors. It is better to do it on our own. This is a superior action that originates enormous benefits. One of those benefits is that She can forgive us of many kinds of karma. She is our mother, and loves us dearly. She does not want to see us suffer.
