Matthew 24:11 · World English Bible
Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray.
Within a person the false prophets are the voices of the lower mind that speak with the tone of truth while pointing away from the center. They rise, meaning they push up into awareness and take the seat of authority, dressed as insight but rooted in appetite and fear.

ESOTERIC
Within a person the false prophets are the voices of the lower mind that speak with the tone of truth while pointing away from the center. They rise, meaning they push up into awareness and take the seat of authority, dressed as insight but rooted in appetite and fear. Many are deceived because these inner voices are convincing; they sound like guidance, they promise safety and reward, and they draw the attention outward toward the world instead of inward toward the still knowing. A false prophet is any thought that claims to foretell your good while feeding the flesh.
The deception is not that they lie outright but that they mimic the true inner voice closely enough to be followed. The many who are led astray are the many faculties of a single person, each pulled after a plausible impulse that speaks as if it were the higher self.

Which voice in my head sounds the most sure of itself, and have I ever once questioned it?
If you meet a Buddha on the road, kill him. Any voice that arrives wearing the robes of authority deserves a long, hard look before you follow it.
Desire dresses itself as good counsel. It speaks in a reasonable tone and leads the mind away from what it already knows.
Test every impression before you agree with it. Most of the trouble in a life comes from believing a thought simply because it showed up sounding certain.
