Instituto Salto Quântico Team – Benjamin, today celebrates 33 years of its relationship, in the present physical existence, with the Spirit Eugênia-Aspásia. Do you have anything in particular to highlight on this date, which represents the ground zero of our Institution?
Benjamin Teixeira de Aguiar – Yes: the horror of the pandemic, with its epicenter in Brazil, and the pandemonium of various related collective problems, which are still only getting worse on Brazilian soil. It’s very sad to see all this, from a distance. Eugênia-Aspásia had said in 2018 that the country was entering a crisis so serious that the core of our Movement-Organization might need to migrate to the United States. I was unwilling at first, although I stayed in the New York metropolitan area for five uninterrupted months, in the period 2018-2019, until the Spiritual Masters (including Eugênia), who always respect our free will, accepted my experimentation with returning to Brazil, which I did in March 2019.
At the beginning of last year, however, shortly after the WHO declared the pandemic, when I had been in the US for a month, She and Her Friends from the Sublime Plan of Life went further and told me that it was a matter of fixing the axis of our House-Cause not only in North American lands, but in the “New Rome” (as She symbolically calls New York, referring to Ancient Rome), as they considered this location more compatible with the global dimension of our work, present in 192 countries, also taking into account the proximity to the UN world headquarters, where we hold special consultative status with the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) since 2018.
ISQT – When will this transfer take place?
BTA – The transition is already happening. It is just operationally complex, not least because we intend to establish a new headquarters that will be definitive. The building that will bring us will have attached to our residence the studio from where we will stream the 4 lectures we give weekly (3 of them exclusive to a smaller and more intimate audience), similar to what we do now, in a temporary address offered by a couple of great friends-siblings in Connecticut. But we believe, my team and I, that by the end of this semester we will be in the “Empire State” – the epithet of the State of New York.
ISQT – What has marked you most in these 33 years?
BTA – The extraordinary phenomena that surround the Work of Eugênia-Aspásia and Whom She represents, phenomena that are (in their publishable part) listed in the “Divine Endorsements” category of our website (www.saltoquantico.com.br/endossos) . As much as I admire the nobility and wisdom of the One who was Aspasia of Miletus and Her Companions of the Greater Spirituality, I would always have doubts about the subjectivity of my own opinion, human and fallible, as from anyone else. And we human beings are inclined (by psychological ego defense mechanisms) to assume that we are right in what we think.
Authorities of the Sublime Domain of Conscience, however, to unequivocally endorse the origin and value of the Discourse that She channels, provided a set of prodigious occurrences, concentrated in one place, with a small group of collaborators who most directly assist me in the Task developed by our Spiritual Advisor, in such a way that we cannot, without renouncing reason and common sense, attribute it to a source other than the Divine.
These are events that cannot be forged, by anyone’s personal taste or will. They constitute a Celestial Signaling that, indeed, what Eugênia-Aspásia transmits to us must be heard with special attention and respect, because the Divinity so wishes, so indicates, when performing these stupendous phenomena.
ISQT – What do you mean by “publishable part”? By the way, would this question and its answer be publishable? (laughter)
BTA – Unfortunately, there is no reason to laugh – and I say it without answering with bitterness, but with tragic sadness. There are those who imagine that the blasphemy of opposition to Heaven’s Enterprises goes unpunished, as if death, illness, or any order of misfortune, in human existence, escaped the Authorization of God. Nothing happens without Divine Permission. That’s all I can say about it, is what can be published.
ISQT – Sorry to be controversial, but doesn’t this statement, in front of the public, sound bad for the Cause?
BTA – Consists of a special grace. People know that they cannot relax in academic or professional life, because they suffer consequences. No one ignores that relationships that are poorly managed tend to wear out and break up. Every adult citizen is aware that violations of the law in force, at a certain time and place, imply penalties. There is, however, the modern fantasy that, now that the last shadows of medieval obscurantism are over, the spiritual subject can be the object of mockery, sarcasm or even open and venal attack. Yes, it can be the target of all that, but at a price corresponding to the height of Who or What is the focus of the offense.
The problem is that the unwary ones who do so, in the midst of this culture of disdain for the Sacred, do not establish a cause-and-effect relationship between their blasphemous attitudes and the nefarious events that, in varying degree and nature, appear in their paths.
It is worth mentioning that the dismal results are not always immediate, some coming months or years after the acts affronting the Absolute Power. These are the most disastrous cases, as they are subject to a kind of karmic accumulation that, at a certain point, collapses in a fulminating way, devastating the existences of those who were sacrilegious, even when they think they are “morally authoritative”, either by their personal opinion or that of religious parties to which they belong.
There are Christian traditions that, unfortunately, are nothing more than diabolical doctrines disguised as spiritual associations of good…
ISQT – Can we identify them?
BTA – Easily. They are contrary to everything that Our Lord Jesus promoted. They preach the reverse of what He suggested His true disciples to do. They attack minorities, of which the Supreme Master was an ardent defender; they excel in religious hypocrisy, which Christ-Word so condemned; they are concerned with secondary moral issues such as sexuality and conventions, doctrinal rigor and their institutional power, which is exactly what the Messiah came to unmask. Thus, they depart precisely from the essential: authenticity in devotion and the fraternal spirit of the inclusion of all within the societies.
God’s Anointed One warned us in advance, however, that there would be “false christs and false prophets.” The oldest Christian doctrine was converted into a state (in the concert of the nations of the world), while several others became multinationals of horrendous simony, emblematically characterized by the Dantean struggle to maintain crowded face-to-face services, in the midst of a colossal growth of infections. and deaths from the new coronavirus.
On the other hand, a relatively recent doctrine that wants to appear purer, encouraging the escape from duty, under the pretext of detachment from material goods, incurs crass irresponsibility with the Celestial Things, by inducing its followers with a priestly vocation to put their professional careers and worldly lives in the foreground and reserve only their spare time or retirement period for dedication to what should always be a priority.
Our Master and Lord Jesus taught the opposite: “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His Justice”. There are well-meaning people who do good in all these religious and conventional environments, but, on the other hand, a lot of evil, cynicism, psychopathy and inconsistency prevail, favoring, on the one hand, the delusions of fanaticism and, on the other, the “epidemic” of atheism that we witness today.
ISQT – Anything else you would like to add?
BTA – Just that individuals worry less about staging the appearance of saints and decent people and seek more to follow their consciences in their conduct. Undoubtedly, if we applied this authentically Christian principle, we would have a better world, in every way. Amid so many and so serious simultaneous crises, on a global scale, from climatic-environmental to political-economic, including the current pandemic, let us not stand and watch our civilization fall apart, under our astonished eyes… There was no lack of warnings, century after century, as to what we suffer these days.
The point is that, as the Christ of Divine Truth also anticipated, genuine prophets are never welcomed in their homelands or in their families, which we can interpret not only in the literal sense, but also as the period and culture of origin. Only after their death, with the test of time, are revered precisely those to whom human communities did not want to listen or even monstrously came to silence, which occurred, in the hideous Crime of the Calvary, to the Christ Himself, crucified even today, every day, in the persons of His legitimate disciples.
Worse for those who do so, against the Divine Will. God is not “nice”. God is God. God of life and death, of joy and tragedy, allows each one to suffer what he deserves, what he needs to experience in order to mature, regardless of whether the creature believes or not in this indefectible Spiritual Law of pain for the evolution, when there is no sincere love for redemption.
