The Metaphysical and Esoteric interpretation of the Bible can awaken us to the potential within our selves to become conscious and creative beings with unlimited potential. One way to look at the basic principles of life is to reflect on the twelve disciples. These disciples were called by Jesus to work with him so that he could unite himself with the Cosmic Christ. This process also takes place within us. In our inner life we have these twelve principles at our disposal. Each of us will develop them differently in our quest to become self-realised, conscious human beings.
