<DIV>What is so wonderful is that what has been regarded as esoteric for so
long, is actually exoteric in availability and access. Although I am not
actually involved in OS as yet, from what I'm reading, it seems that is
precisely the function it performs, opening the mind to see beyond its
conditioned, self-and-other-imposed limitations of viewpoint and more. -

Artur,<BR>in your quote of the translation of "iniciação"<BR>it is called
"exoteric" practice which is the opposite, I think, of <BR>esotric. I have

transparent with no mumbojumbo or secret parts visible <BR>only to the "inner
