Why is the askokin intimately related to wars?

Answer of V.M. Samael Aun Weor

NATURE has given us life but we have to pay dearly for it, we feed ourselves with nature, but it feeds on
us.

The old Asian Sages discovered within the PSYCHIS of every individual, two sacred substances that they
called ABRUSTDONIS and HELKDONIS.

The old Sages said that intelligently transmuting these two METAPHYSICAL substances released a
vivifying sacred substance called ASKOKIN.

THE ASKOKIN is the substance with which the GREAT NATURE feeds. MOTHER NATURA gives us life but
charges it very expensive, she demands ASKOKIN, and if we do not give it voluntarily, she forcibly takes it
away by means of Great Wars.

If within us, within each one, the destructive factors that produce War did not exist, Mother NATURA
would not need to use that destructive system to take away her sacred food.

By dissolving the PSYCHOLOGICAL SELF, a PERMANENT CENTER OF LIGHTED CONSCIENCE is established

within us, then we release the sacred ASKOKIN through right thinking, right feeling and right action.

Answer: Before explaining the relationship of the askokin with wars, it is important to speak of the "law
of reciprocal feeding of all that exists", or law of the Self-Ego-Crático-cosmic-Common, according to
which, everything in the creation is reciprocally fed. Mother nature gives us life, feeds us, makes it
permanent and instead we, we must also feed her. This Law is something similar to "It is not created or
destroyed, it only transforms", that is, the food is only in continuous movement, the universe is kept
alive like a clock, working all at the same time, feeding us with each other. The askokin is the food that
we offer to mother nature, it is the way in which we keep it alive, it is what we give in exchange for our
life. This askokin, according to old Asian sages is the result of a transmutation of two substances within
the psyche of every individual, whose names are "abrustdonis" and "helkdonis". Now, if we do not
release that askokin, that feeds for Natura, then somehow it must be this liberated, so that all the
machinery of the universe remains in operation and then as a consequence the wars come. The lack of
askokin to feed mother nature, will be solved with the death of people (who will release the substance)
as a result of wars, dictated by the egos that we carry inside. Thus, the askokin is related to wars,
because when it is not achieved in another way, the human will release it through them. However, if the
man dissolves the psychological ego, a center of consciousness is established in him that frees the
necessary askokin, which makes the rapture unnecessary through deaths and war so that everything
continues to function. The askokin will be released through right thinking, right feeling and right acting.

Answer: Because it is the food of great nature and if we do not voluntarily give it to it, Mother Nature
takes it away from us through great wars. If we eliminate the psychological SELF, we would be releasing
the sacred askokin that the great nature needs to feed itself. But while we do not eliminate the
psychological aggregates, within us there will be the IEs of hatred, greed, ambition, lust, cruelty,
selfishness, cunning, etc., etc. ... And these IEs will join other people and the selfishness of a single
person will become the selfishness of many people, the cruelty of a single person will become the
cruelty of many people and so on will be created more YOES that will plurize with that of many other
people and this is what will lead to their becoming untied wars.

Answer: As long as there exists within each of us the psychological ego; We will have inside all the factors
that produce war: cruelty, selfishness, greed, ambition, hatred, cunning. Peace and war are the same
mental form, one with a positive pole and the other with a negative pole. What people call peace is the
antithesis of war; we must go beyond the polarity of the mind if we want to find the truth; We need to
reach the great synthesis. We must know that there are two kinds of revolutions: that of violence and
that of nonviolence; the positive and the negative. To the present humanity, at least he would be asked
to use his rational animal mind, and then, try to get out of that state; something that does not do, and
then start by evicting those I's from rationing. It takes a real moral rearmament, understand that internal
transformation is part of the revolution, thoroughly study that self, that self, that myself that leads us to
animality and confrontations. War leads to that individual selfishness, which then becomes collective
selfishness; individual greed becomes collective greed; individual hatred transforms into collective
hatred. Askokin and the war will end up associating when the human being becomes a real man.
