Initiation is a passage from one type of life to
another type of life, and the movement is always presumed to be from a lower to
a higher level.
However, there is no up or down in the universe &
the spiritual voyager often finds himself in a hell rather than a heaven.
Consider Balberith, ex-princess of the heavenly
Cherubim & now, after the Fall of Satan, high priestess & mistress of
ceremonies in the infernal realms.
Balberith is spoken of as an evil demon, inciting men
& women to murder. But this is not
so.
Balberith is an initiator; she oversees the transition
as the human being moves from one type of life to the next.
And Balberith, perhaps, will be with you if you summon
her to protect & guide you on your quest.
Not from this life to Hell, but from this life to
Hell, then Heaven & and then whatever lies beyond.
