| | Esotericism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Not infrequently, the claims of one esoteric group may be rejected by the wider religious culture, or by other esoteric groups which make their own rival claims. | | | Nineteenth-century esoteric writers came to be deeply influenced by various Eastern religions, which they typically saw as partaking of the same divine truth. | | | While esotericism tends to focus on personal enlightenment and internal spiritual practice, organized religion or exotericism tends to focus on outer spiritual practice and ritual and on laws that govern the society. |

| | Esoteric |
| | Mysticism tends to be the spiritual application of an esoteric or an exoteric religion or teaching, but is not a separate teaching. | | | Esoteric doctrines can be just as far from the truth as exoteric ones. | | | In this latter sense, even the "esoteric" aspects of science, etc are "exoteric"). |

| | Esoteric and Exoteric |
| | In any case, especially in traditional or established forms of esotericism (Buddhism, Sufism, Kabbalah, etc), there is always some conceptual dogma, so we have esoteric religion, a religion based on mystical experiences, but still interpreting them according to an a prior analysis. | | | Such schools of thought acknowledge a universal current of mystical revelation in that is the living heart or spirit behind the external esoteric legalistic surface of religion. | | | It should also be pointed out that other definition of "Esoteric" or "Esotericism" has been used by the "New Age" movement of the seventies and eighties to simply mean any acceptable non-materialistic and non-conventional-religious metaphysic. |

| | Tibetan Buddhism |
| | The Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism, which is different from all other Esoteric Buddhisms, makes the Tibetan Buddhism unique. | | | The Tibetan Buddhism requests the study of the Exoteric Buddhism as the foundation and puts the Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism as the most advanced form of Buddhism. | | | According to the Esoteric Buddhism, "the attraction of lust will draw one into the realm of the wisdom of the Buddha", that is, by means of carnal love the bodhisattva leads one to liberation. |

| | Esotericism FAQ |
| | The fact is that there have been and are now esoteric traditions in all three of the great Western religions. | | | Although our Craft ritual does not refer directly to such traditions and teachings, rightly or wrongly many esotericists believe that there are allusions to them throughout the teachings and symbolism of our rituals. | | | Do not be misled and do not join an organization hoping some great spiritual enlightenment will come to you because you've paid some amount in dues. |

| | Christians hope for the return of the Christ, the Buddhists look for the coming of another Buddha (the Lord Maitreya), Muslims await the Imam Mahdi, Hindus expect a reincarnation of Krishna, and the Jews await the Messiah. | | | Students of the esoteric tradition know all these as different names for the same individual -- the Lord Maitreya, the World Teacher, the Head of the Spiritual Hierarchy of Masters. | | | Esoteric Philosophy is, essentially, the "Science of the Soul," and provides an insight into the synthetic nature of the energies and forces lying behind Man, Creation and the Phenomenal World. |

| | Harnad Response to Fuller: THES May 12 1995 |
| | When the first scientific journals were founded in 17th century Britain and France, editors were cast in the role of trusted correspondents with the leading scientific minds, whose letters they would edit for gratuitous metaphysical jargon and personal nastiness. | | | Only in the late 18th century do "authors" come to be regarded as more than just the first stage of the book production process. | | | The taxpayer does not seek decorum for his dollars, but assurance that the work being supported is of the best feasible quality of its kind, as judged by those who are able to read and judge its quality: those who have devoted their lives to becoming specialists in the subject matter in question. |
