We are closer to him than his jugular vein. —Qur’an 50:16
Divinity never abandons us. We abandon God whenever we identify with the mind. Despair, pessimism, doubt, fear, anxiety, shame, morbidity, and pain are defects. However:
The greatest joy for the Gnostic is to celebrate the discovery of some of his defects. A discovered defect becomes a dead defect. —Samael Aun Weor, The Elimination of Satan’s Tail
Also, people lack faith because they do not awaken consciousness here and in the internal worlds. To awaken, meditation is essential.
Whenever you feel depleted, sorrowful, sad, or dark, I recommend you practice the runes and charge your soul with divine power. Do so asking to remember God!
