Blue Time or Rest Therapeutics

Upon the mysterious threshold of the Temple of Delphi, a Greek maxim existed, which was engraved in the stone and stated: HOMO NOSCE TE IPSUM, “Man know thyself and thou shalt know the Universe and the Gods.”

In the final instance, it is obvious, evident and clear that the study of oneself and serene reflection conclude in the quietude and in the silence of the mind.

When the mind is quiet and in silence (not only in the intellectual level, but in each and every one of the forty-nine subconscious departments) then the Newness emerges. The Essence, the consciousness, comes out of the bottle, and the awakening of the soul, the Ecstasy, the Samadhi, occurs.

The daily practice of meditation transforms us radically. People who do not work on the annihilation of the “I” are like butterflies that flutter from one school to another. They have yet to find their center of permanent gravity. Therefore, they die as failures, without ever having achieved the inner Self-realization of their Being.

The awakening of the consciousness is only possible by means of liberating ourselves from mental dualism and by emancipating ourselves from the struggle of the antitheses or from intellectual surges.

Any subconscious, infra-conscious and unconscious submerged struggle is converted into an impediment for the liberation of the Essence (soul).

Every antithetical battle (as insignificant and unconscious as it might appear) indicates, accuses, and aims to obscure points which are ignored and unknown within the atomic infernos of the human being.

To reflect, observe and know these infrahuman aspects, these obscure points of oneself, is indispensable in order to achieve the absolute quietude and silence of the mind.

Only in the absence of the “I” is it possible to experience and live the Integral Revolution and the Revolution of the Dialectic.

Blue Time or Rest Therapeutics has basic rules without which it would be impossible to emancipate ourselves from the mortifying shackles of the mind. These rules are:

1. Relaxation: It is indispensable to relax the body for meditation; no muscle should remain with tension. It is urgent to provoke and to regulate drowsiness by will. It is evident that with the wise combination of drowsiness and meditation, that which is called Illumination will be the outcome.

2. Retrospection: What are we looking for in retrospection? Due to the mechanical life that he lives in, the intellectual animal forgets the Self. Thus, he falls into fascination. He goes around with his consciousness asleep, without remembering what he did at the moment of rising from his bed, without knowing the first thoughts of the day, his actions and the places he has been to.

The objective of retrospection is the acquisition of awareness of one’s behavior or actions of the past. When carrying out the retrospection, we should not put any objections to the mind; we will recall memories of past actions, from the moment of beginning the retrospection to the desired moment in our lives. We should study each memory without becoming identified with it.

3. Serene Reflection: First, before any thoughts surge, we need to become fully aware of the mood that we are in. Serenely observe our mind; pay full attention to any mental form which appears on the screen of the intellect.

It is necessary to become sentries of our own mind during any given agitated activity, and to then stop for an instant and observe it.

4. Psychoanalysis: Examine, estimate and inquire about the origin, and root of every thought, memory, affection, emotion, feeling, resentment, etc., while they emerge from within the mind.

During psychoanalysis, one must examine, evaluate, inquire, and find out the origin of, the cause of, the reason for, or the fundamental motive for each thought, memory, image and association as they emerge from the bottom of the subconsciousness.

5. Mantralization or Koan: The objectives of this phase are:

a) To mix the magical forces of mantras or koans in our inner universe.
b) To awaken the consciousness.
c) To internally accumulate christic atoms of high voltage.

In this psychological work, the intellect must assume a psychological, receptive, integral, unitotal, complete, tranquil and profound state. One achieves this unitotal receptive state with the koans or phrases that control the mind.

6. Superlative Analysis: Consists of an introspective knowledge of oneself. During deep meditation, introversion is indispensable.

In that state, one will work in the process of the comprehension of the “I” or defect that one wants to disintegrate. The Gnostic student will concentrate on the psychological aggregate and will maintain it on the screen of the mind. Above all, it is indispensable to be sincere with oneself.

Superlative analysis consists of two phases which are:

a) Self-exploration: To investigate, within the depths of our consciousness and in the 49 levels of our subconsciousness, when that the defect first manifested itself in our lives, when it last manifested itself and in which moment it has had more strength to manifest itself.

b) Self-discovery: To investigate what are the nourishing foods of the “I.” To fraction and divide the defect in various parts and to study each part in order to get to know the kind of “I’s” it originates from and the kind of “I’s” that originate from it.

7. Self-judgment: To seat the defect being studied in the defendant’s chair. To bring to judgment the damages it causes to the consciousness and the benefits that the annihilation of the defect being judged would bring into our life.

8. Prayer: One will supplicate (ask) the Divine Mother Kundalini, our inner and individual Mother, with much fervor. One will talk to her with frankness and introvert all the defects and faults that one has, so that She, who is the only one capable of disintegrating the “I’s,” will disintegrate them at their very roots.

It is pleasant and interesting to attend the meditation halls (Gnostic Sanctuaries) any time one is able to do so.

It is essential to always practice meditation with closed eyes so as to avoid external sensory perceptions.

-From Chapter I of “The Revolution of the Dialectic,” by Samael Aun Weor

The Transformation of Impressions

We are going to talk about the transformation of life. This transformation is only possible if one has the resolution to profoundly do it unto oneself.

Transformation signifies that one thing changes into something else. It is logical that everything is susceptible to change.

Well-known transformations within matter exist, this no one can deny. For example, sugar is transformed into alcohol and the latter is then converted into vinegar through the action of fermentation. This is the transformation of a molecular substance. One knows about the chemical life of elements, for example, when radium is slowly transformed into lead.

The alchemists of the Middle Ages spoke about the transmutation of lead into gold; nevertheless they were not always concerned with only the mere metallic physical matter. More specifically, what they wanted to indicate with such a statement was how the transmutation of the lead of the personality can be transformed into the gold of the spirit. Therefore, it is convenient for us to reflect upon all of these things.

In the Gospels, the idea of the earthly man (who is comparable to a seed that is capable of development) has the same meaning as the idea of the renaissance of the human being, or the man who has to be born again. Obviously, if the seed does not die, the plant cannot be born. Death and birth coexist in every transformation.

In Gnosis, we consider the human being to be like a factory with three floors which normally absorbs three types of nourishment.

Common nourishment, which is a matter related to the stomach, is the first type which corresponds to the inferior floor of the factory. Naturally, air is related with the second floor and this second type of nourishment corresponds to the lungs. Indubitably, impressions are associated with the third floor or the third type of nourishment and this corresponds to the brain.

Unquestionably, the food which we eat suffers successive transformations. The process of life, in and of itself, is transformation. Each creature in the universe subsists by means of the transformation of one substance into another. For example, a plant transforms water, air and the salts of the earth into new vital vegetable substances such as nuts, fruits, potatoes, lemons, etc., elements which are useful to us. Therefore, everything is about transformation.

The fermentations of nature vary because of the action of the solar light. Unquestionably, the sensitive film of life (which normally extends over the face of the Earth) conducts every universal force towards the very interior of the planetary world. Therefore, each plant, each insect, each creature and the intellectual animal himself (who is mistakenly called human) unconsciously absorb, assimilate, specific cosmic energies, which are then transformed and transmitted towards the interior layers of the planetary organism. Such transformed energies are intimately related with the whole economy of the planetary organism in which we live. Indubitably, every creature (according to its species) transforms specific energies which are then transmitted into the interior of the Earth for the economy of the world. Therefore, each creature that is in existence fulfills the same function.

When we eat a food necessary for our existence, then it is indeed transformed from one phase into another, into all of those elements which are so indispensable for our existence. Which center carries out those processes of the transformation of substances within us. Obviously, it is the Instinctual Center. The wisdom of this center is very astonishing.



Digestion in itself is transformation. In other words, the food within our stomach, in the inferior part of this three story factory of our human organism, suffers a transformation. If something were to enter without going through the stomach, then the organism would not be able to assimilate its vitamin principles or its proteins. Thus, this would simply be indigestion.

As we reflect upon this subject, we comprehend the necessity of undergoing a transformation.

It is evident that physical food is transformed. However, there is something which invites us to reflect: does an educated center for the transformation of impressions exist within us?

No! Indeed, for the purpose of nature itself, it is not necessary whatsoever for the intellectual animal (mistakenly called human) to transform impressions. But a human being can transform impressions by himself. Naturally, he has to comprehend the reason for that necessity. We state that this is performed when one possesses an in-depth knowledge.

To transform our impressions would be magnificent. However, the majority of people, as they are seen in the field of practical life, believe that this physical world will give them what they yearn for and seek. Indeed, this is a tremendous error, because life in itself enters within us, into our organism, in the form of mere impressions. Therefore, the first thing that we must comprehend is the significance of the esoteric work which is intimately related with the world of impressions.

Do we really need to transform our impressions? Truthfully we do! This is true because one cannot really transform ones own life unless one transforms the impressions which reach the mind.

The people who read these lines must reflect on what is being stated here. We are talking about something very revolutionary, since the whole world believes that what is physical is what is real. However, if we go a little deeper, we see that what we really perceive at each instant, at each moment, are mere impressions.

If we see a person who pleases or displeases us, the first thing that we obtain from that person's character are his pleasant or unpleasant impressions, isn't that true? This we cannot deny. Therefore, life is a succession of impressions, and not just a physical thing of an exclusively materialistic type, as is believed by the learned ignoramuses. Thus, the reality of life is its impressions!

Indeed, the ideas that we are enunciating here are not easy to grasp, to apprehend. Possibly there are readers who are certain that life exists just as it is and not according to their impressions. Obviously, they are so influenced by this physical world, that this is how they think.

For example: the person that we see there, seated on a chair with this or that colored suit or the person who greets us, or who smiles at us, etc., are for us, truly real. However, if we meditate profoundly on all of them, then we will arrive at the conclusion that what is real for us are the impressions. Indeed, it is because these impressions arrive at the mind through the windows of our senses.

If we did not have senses, for instance, eyes to see, ears to hear, a mouth to taste the foods (which our organism assimilates), would then that which is called the physical world exist for us? Of course not, absolutely not.

Therefore, life reaches us in the form of impressions. Precisely, it is in these impressions where the possibility of working upon ourselves exists. Before all else, what is that which we must do? We have to comprehend the work that we must perform. How could we achieve a psychological transformation on ourselves? We do it by performing a psychological work upon the impressions that we are receiving at each instant, at each moment.

This first work receives the name of First Conscious Shock. This is related ith those impressions which are everything that we know of as the exterior world. What size then do true things, real people, have?

We need to transform ourselves internally each day. When we want to transform our psychological aspect, we need to work upon the impressions which enter into us.

Why do we call the work of the transformation of impressions the First Conscious Shock? It is because the "shock" is something that we cannot observe in a merely mechanical manner. This could never be done in a mechanical manner; one needs a self-conscious effort. It is clear that when one begins to comprehend this work, one begins to cease being the mechanical human being who only serves nature's purposes.

Now think about the meaning of everything that you are being taught here. If then, by means of your own efforts, you begin with the observation of yourself, you will then see that on the practical side of this esoteric work, everything is intimately related with the transformation of impressions and what is naturally the outcome of them.

The work, for instance, on negative emotions, on angry states, on identification, on self-consideration, on the successive "I's," on lying, on self-justification, on excuses, on the unconscious states in which we are in, is all related with the transformation of impressions and what results from it all. Regarding the significance of transformation, it is advantageous to compare the work upon oneself, in a certain manner, to a dissection. Do not forget that it is necessary to form an element of change at the place of entry of the impressions.

By means of the comprehension of this work, you can accept life as work. You will then really enter into a constant state of self-remembrance. Then, the tremendous realism of the transformation of impressions will naturally reach you. Normally, or better said supra-normally, the transformed impressions themselves would lead you to a better life, depending naturally on how concerned you are with this work. Thus, the impressions would no longer act upon you as they did at the beginning of your own transformation.

But as long as you continue thinking in the same way, that is, receiving life in the same manner, it is clear that there will be no change in yourself.

To transform the impressions of life is to transform oneself. This totally new manner of thinking helps us to carry out such a transformation. This entire dissertation is exclusively based on the radical manner of transforming oneself. Thus, if one does not transform oneself, nothing is achieved.

You will comprehend that, indeed, that life demands from us a continuous reaction towards it. Thus, all of these reactions form our personal life. Therefore, to change one's life is to really change one's own reactions towards it. Exterior life reaches us as mere impressions which incessantly force us to react, we would say, in a stereotypical way. If the reactions which form our personal life are all of a negative type, then our own life will be negative as well.



Life consists of a successive series of negative reactions which happen as incessant responses towards the impressions which reach the mind. Therefore, our task consists of transforming the impressions of life in such a manner that they do not provoke this type of negative response. However in order to achieve this, it is necessary to observe oneself from instant to instant, from moment to moment. Therefore, it is urgent to study one's own impressions.

We must not allow the impressions to reach us subjectively and mechanically. If we start having such control, we will begin a new life; we will begin to live more consciously. An individual cannot give himself the luxury of allowing the impressions to reach him mechanically. Thus, when one acts in this way, one transforms the impressions and then begins to live consciously.

The First Conscious Shock consists in transforming the impressions which reach us. If one manages to transform the impressions which reach one's mind at the moment of entry, then one obtains marvelous results which benefit one's existence.

One can always work on the outcome of impressions. Thus, indeed these impressions will conclude without mechanical effect, for this mechanicity is usually disastrous in the interior of our psyche.

This Gnostic Esoteric Work must be brought about to the point where the impressions enter. Otherwise, they are distributed to wrong places by the personality in order to evoke old reactions.



I am going to simplify this; as an example, let us use the following: If we throw a stone into a crystalline lake, impressions will then be produced in the lake and the response of those impressions produced by the stone manifest themselves in the form of waves which go from the center to the periphery.

Now, imagine the mind as a lake. Suddenly, an image of a person appears. That image, like the stone in our example above, reaches the mind. Then, the mind reacts in the form of impressions. The impressions are the outcome of the image that reaches the mind and the reactions are the responses to such impressions.

If a ball is thrown against a wall, the wall receives the impressions. Afterwards a reaction will follow, which consists of returning the ball to the one who threw it. Perhaps the ball will not be returned directly to the person, but the ball will bounce back, and that is precisely the reaction.

The world is formed by the impressions; for example: the image of a table reaches our mind through the senses. We cannot say that the table has arrived or that the table has entered or cerebrum, that is absurd. However, the image of the table is indeed inside of us. Thus our mind reacts immediately saying: this is a wooden or metal table, etc.!

Impressions which are not so pleasant also exist. For example, the words of an offender, isn't that true? Could we transform the words of an offender?

No! Because words are as they are, therefore what could we do? We must transform the imrpessions which such words produce within us. This is possible.

The Gnostic Teachings teach us how to crystallize the Second Force that is Christ within us, by means of a postulate which states: One has to receive with gladness the unpleasant manifestations of our fellow men.

Found in the previous postulate is the way to transform the impressions which the words of an offender produce within us. Receive with gladness the unpleasant manifestations of our fellow men. This postulate will naturally lead us to the crystallization of the Second Force, Christ, within us. The practice of this postulate will cause the Christ to come and take shape within us.

If from this physical world we only know its impressions, then indeed the physical world is not as external as people believe. With just reason Immanuel Kant said, "The exterior is the interior." If the interior is what matters, we should therefore transform the interior. The impressions are interior, therefore all objects and things, everything we perceive, exists in our interior in the form of impressions.

If we do not transform impressions, nothing will change within us. Lust, covetousness, pride, hatred, etc., exist in the form of impressions within our psyche which vibrate incessantly.

The mechanical outcome of such impressions have been all of those inhuman elements which we carry within and which we have normally called "I's" which, in their conjunction, constitutes the myself, the oneself.

Let us suppose, for example, that a man sees a provocative woman and that he does not transform those impressions; the result will be that the same impressions, of a lustful type, produce in him the desire of possessing her. Such a desire is the result of the impressions received, and it crystallizes, it takes shape in our psyche, and becomes one more aggregate, in other words, an inhuman element, a new type of lustful "I" which comes to add itself to the sum of inhuman elements which in their totality constitute the ego.

Anger, covetousness, lust, envy, pride, laziness and gluttony exist within us. Why does anger exist within us? Because many impressions reached our interior and we never transformed them. The mechanical outcomes of such never-before-transformed-impressions of anger form the "I's" which exist and vibrate in our psyche and which constantly make us feel angry.

Why covetousness? Indubitably, many things have awakened covetousness within us: money, jewels, all types of material things, etc. Those things, those objects, reached us in the form of impressions. We committed the error of not having transformed those impressions into different things, such as into an attraction for beauty, or into happiness, etc. Such non-transformed impressions naturally became "I's" of covetousness which we now carry within our interior.

Why do we have lust? I have already stated that different forms of lust have reached us in the form of impressions. In other words, images of an erotic type emerged from within the interior of our mind and the reaction was lust. Naturally, there was no hesitation in the outcome of that momentum. Afterwards, new morbid "I's" were born in our psyche because we did not transform those lustful waves, that unhealthy eroticism.

That is why today we have to work on those impressions and their mechanical results which we have within our interior. Thus, within ourselves we have impressions of anger, covetousness, gluttony, pride, laziness and lust. Within we also have the mechanical results of such impressions: a bunch of quarrelsome and wailing "I's" which we now need to comprehend and eliminate.

The master-work of our life consists in knowing how to transform the impressions and in also knowing how to eliminate the mechanical results of those impressions which were not transformed in the past.

Properly, the exterior world does not exist within us. What exist within us are impressions. Impressions are internal, and the reactions of such impressions are completely internal.



No one could say that he is seeing a tree in itself. He may be seeing the image of a tree but not the tree. As Immanuel Kant stated, the thing in itself is not seen by anyone. One seeds the image of things, in other words, the impression of a tree, of something, surges forth within us, and those impressions are internal, they are of the mind.

If one does perform one's own internal modifications, there is no hesitation in the outcome of that momentum. Such outcome is the birth of new "I's" which enslave our Essence, our consciousness, intensifying even more the sleepy state in which we live.

When one truthfully comprehends that everything that exists within oneself is nothing but impressions which are related to the physical world, one also comprehends the necessity of transforming those impressions. Thus, the transformation of oneself is attained by performing such a transformation.

There is nothing that hurts more than slander or the words of an offender. If one is capable of transforming the impressions which such words produce within, those impressions have no value. In other words, they remain like a check drawn against insufficient funds. Certainly, the words of an insulter do not have any more value than that which the insulted person gives to them. Therefore, if the insulted person does not give any importance to them, I repeat, they remain like a check drawn against insufficient funds. By comprehending this, one transforms the impressions of those words. For instance, they are transformed into something different, into love, into compassion for the insulter. Naturally, this means transformation. Therefore, we need to be transforming impressions incessantly, not only the ones in the present, but also the ones of the past and of the future.

Within us there exist many impressions. We committed the error of not having transformed those impressions in the past. Many mechanical results of the same impressions exist within us; they are called "I's." Now we have the disintegrate, to annihilate them, in order for our consciousness to remain free and awake.

It is indispensable to reflect on what I am stating here. Things, people, are nothing more than impressions within ourselves, within our minds. Therefore, if we transform those impressions, we transform our life radically.



For instance: when a person feels proud because of his social position, or his money, such pride, which exists within him, has as its basis ignorance. If, however, this person realizes that his social status is made up of mere mental matter (a series of impressions which have reached his mind) and he then analyzes the value of this mental matter, he comes to realize that such a position exists only in his mind in the form of impressions. Those impressions, which money and social status produce, are nothing but the external impressions of the mind. Thus, by simply comprehending that they are only impressions of the mind, a transformation of the same impressions occurs. Then, pride, by itself, declines, collapses, and humility is born within us in a natural way.

Continuing with this study of the processes of the transformation of impressions, I will proceed with something very important. For instance, the lustful image of a person reaches our mind or surges forth within our mind. It is obvious that such an image is an impression. We could transform that lustful impression by means of comprehension. It would be enough, in that instant, for us to think that that woman will one day die and that her body will become dust in the cemetery. If within our imagination we saw her body in the process of disintegration in the grave, this would be more than enough to transform that lustful impression into chastity. Because if it is not transformed, it will be added to the legion of our "I's" of lust. Therefore, it is convenient to transform the impressions which emerge in our mind by means of comprehension.

It is highly logical that the exterior world is not as external as is normally believed. Everything that reaches us from the physical world is in our interior because these are nothing but internal impressions.

No one could put a tree, a chair, a palace or a rock into his mind. Everything reaches our mind in the form of impressions. This is it.

Thus, the impressions that come from this world (which we consider to be external) are not as external as we believe. Therefore, it is unpostponable that we transform impressions through comprehension.

If someone greets us, praises us, how could we transform the vanity which this or that flatterer provokes within us? Obviously, the praises, the flattery, are nothing but impressions which reach our mind and the mind then reacts in the form of vanity. However, if those impressions are transformed, vanity then becomes impossible.

How could the words of a flatterer be transformed? It is by means of comprehension, of course. When one really comprehends that one is nothing but an infinitesimal creature in a corner of the Universe, one immediately transforms, by oneself, those impressions of praise, flattery, into something different. One converts such impressions into what they are: dust, cosmic dust, because one comprehends one's own position.

We know that the Galaxy in which we live in is made up of millions of worlds. Then, what is the Earth? It is just a particle of dust within infinity. And if we were to state that we are nothing but organic microorganisms on that particle, then what? If we were to comprehend this when were flattered, we would perform a transformation of those impressions related to the praise and flattery or adulation and as a result we would not react in the form of pride.

The more we reflect upon this, the more we will see time and again the necessity of a complete transformation of impressions.

Everything that we see as external is internal. If we do not work within the interior, then we tread upon the path of error because we are not modifying our habits. If we want to be different, we need to transform ourselves integrally. We must begin by transforming impressions. Thus, sexual transformation (transmutation) surges forth within us when we transform the animal and bestial impressions into elements of devotion.

Unquestionably, this matter of impressions deserves to be analyzed clearly and precisely. The personality that we have received or have acquired grants entrance to the impressions of life. However this personality does not transform these impressions because the personality is something practically dead.

If the impressions would impact directly upon the Essence, then it is obvious that they would be correctly transformed, because the Essence would immediately deposit them exactly in the corresponding centers of the human machine.

Personality is that term that is applied to everything that we acquire. It is clear that the personality translates impressions from all sides of life in a limited and practically stereotypical manner, according to its quality and associations.



Related to this matter, in the Gnostic Esoteric Work, the personality is sometimes compared to a terrible secretary who is at the front desk of an office, preoccupied with all the ideas, concepts, preconceptions, opinions and prejudices. It has many dictionaries, encyclopedias of all types, reference books, etc. Nevertheless, it is not in communication with the centers, in other words, with the mental, emotional and the physical centers. It is not in communication with the intellectual, motor, emotional, instinctual and sexual centers, because of its unusual ideas. Consequently or as a corollary, it so happens that the personality almost always puts itself in communication with the wrong centers. This means that the impressions that arrive are sent to the wrong centers. In other words, the personality places the impressions on centers which do not correspond to them. Naturally, this produces erroneous results.

I will make the following example so that I will be better understood. Let us suppose that a woman attends to a gentleman with a lot of consideration and respect. It is clear that the impressions which the gentleman is receiving in his mind are received by the personality and the latter sends them to the wrong centers. Normally, the personality sends them to the sexual center. Therefore, this gentleman firmly believes that the lady is in love with him. Logically, it does not take long before he rushes to make amorous insinuations to her. Indubitably, if that lady has never had that type of feeling for the gentleman, she will justly feel surprised by this. This outcome would be due to a terrible transformation of impressions. Thus, here we can see just how bad a secretary the personality really is.

Unquestionably, the life of a human being depends upon this secretary, she who seeks the transformation of impressions within her reference books without every comprehending what the event truly means. Consequently, she transmits impressions without ever taking any responsibility for what could happen. Nevertheless, the personality considers that it is accomplishing its duty. This is our internal situation.

Thus, in this allegory what is important to comprehend is how the human personality (which we acquire and which we are compelled to acquire) begins to take charge of our lives.

Unquestionably, it is useless to imagine that this happens only to certain and specific people. This happens to everyone, whoever they might be.

Through observation, one finds out that numerous characteristic reactions exist which are produced by the impressions that reach us. Unfortunately, these mechanical reactions govern us. It is clear that every person in life is governed by life itself; it does not matter if he calls himself liberal or conservative, revolutionary or Bolshevik, good or bad in any sense of the word.

It is obvious that in the presence of the impacts of the exterior world there exist reactions. Our own life is constituted by them. Therefore, based on this fact, we can emphatically state that humanity is completely mechanical.

In life, every human being has formed for himself an erroneous quantity of reactions which become the practical experiences of his existence. It is clear that every action produces their reactions, which are actions of a certain type. Such reactions are called experiences.

Thus, the ability to relax the mind would be the most essential thing for us to learn in order to get to know our actions and reactions better. This "mental relaxation" (the ability to lie down in one's bed or in a comfortable arm chair in order to patiently relax all the muscles and then to empty the mind of all thoughts, desires, emotions, and memories) is magnificent. When the mind is quiet, when the mind is in silence, we can know ourselves better. In such moments of peacefulness and mental silence, we come to really experience, in a direct manner, the crude reality of all our actions in practical life.



When the mind is in absolute repose, we can see the multitude of elements and sub-elements, actions and reactions, desires, passions, etc., as something foreign to us. These elements and sub-elements await the precise moment in which they will be able to exercise their control over us, over our personality. That is the reason why the silence and stillness of the mind is worthwhile. Obviously, the relaxation of the mind is beneficial in the most complete sense of the world, because it leads us to individual self-knowledge.

Thus, all that is life, that is to say, external life (what we see and live), is for each person his reaction to the impressions which arrive from the physical world.

It is a great mistake to think that that which is called life is a fixed, solid thing which in itself is the same for every person. Since the existing impressions related to life in the human species are infinite, we can say, without a doubt, that there does not exist a single person who has the same impressions as that of another.

Indeed, life is our impressions of it. Thus, it is clear that we can transform such impressions if we resolve to do so. But as was stated, this is an idea which is very difficult to understand or to comprehend because the hypnosis of our senses is very powerful.

Although this might appear incredible, the fact is that all human beings are in a state of "collective hypnosis." Such hypnosis is produced by the residual state of the abominable Kundabuffer organ. When the Kundabuffer organ was eliminated, what remained were the different psychic aggregates or inhuman elements which in their conjunction constitute the myself, the oneself. These elements and sub-elements, in their turn, began to condition our consciousness and keep it in a state of hypnosis. Therefore, hypnosis of a collective type exists. The entire world is hypnotized!



The mind is bottled up within the world of the five senses. The mind does not manage to comprehend how it could become independent of them. The mind believes itself to be a god.

Our internal life (the true life of thoughts and feelings) continues to be confused by our mere reasoning and intellectual concepts. Nonetheless, at the same time, we know very well that the place that we really live in is within our world of thoughts and feelings. This is something that no one can deny.

Life is our impressions and those can be transformed. We need to learn how to transform our impressions. However, it is not possible to transform anything within us if we continue to be attached to the world of the five senses.

As I have stated in my Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, experience teaches us that if our Gnostic Esoteric Work is negative, it is due to our own fault.

It is from our sensorial point of view that we say that this or that person of the external world (whom one sees and hears through the eyes and ears) has to be blamed. This person in turn will say that we are the ones to blame. However, the fault, indeed, is in the impressions that we might have about people. Many times we think that a person is perverse when in reality the person is just a humble lamb.

It is very opportune to learn how to transform all the impressions which we may have of life. "We have to learn to receive with gladness the unpleasant manifestations of our fellowmen."

-From Chapter I of “The Revolution of the Dialectic,” by Samael Aun Weor

Mental Stomach

In the previous chapter, we learned that there exists three known types of nourishment.

1. Nourishment related with breathing.
2. Nourishment that is strictly considered comestibles.
3. And nourishment through impressions.

The outcome of respiration is the assimilation of oxygen which is so valuable for human life.

The digestion of comestibles brings upon the assimilation of the vital principles for our blood as the outcome.

The assimilation or digestion of impressions brings about as an outcome the absorption of energy that is finer than the other two.

The five senses correspond to impressions. Two types of impressions exist: pleasant and unpleasant.

The human being needs to know how to live, yet in order to do this one has to learn how to digest and to transform impressions. This is vital for comprehension.

If, indeed, we want to know how to live, then we have to transform impressions. The Hydrogen 48 is related with all the impressions that reach the mind. Unfortunately, human beings live mechanically. Human beings can transform the Hydrogen 48 into Hydrogen 24 in order to fortify the charkas. They can transform the Hydrogen 24 into Hydrogen 12 to fortify the mind and transform the Hydrogen 12 into Hydrogen 6 in order to fortify willpower.

In this day and age, one needs to transform the mind, to move it onto a new mental level. Otherwise, impressions will always continue to arrive in the wrong centers. People believe that they are able to see things from different angles and that they are almighty. However, they do not realize that their human mind is limited by their preconceptions and prejudices.

In these modern times, we need to transform our mental apparatus; we must be different, distinct. It is urgent and necessary to build a superior intellectual apparatus that will be adequate in order to transform and digest impressions.

In the same manner that the digestive apparatus has a stomach in order to assimilate the food, in the same manner that the respiratory system has lungs to assimilate oxygen, so too must a mental stomach be created by the mechanical human being. Please do not misunderstand or misinterpret this statement. This is not a bodily cellular stomach.

We have to transform impressions before digesting them. The creation of such a mental stomach is granted and facilitated by the Gnostic Teachings, consequently making the intellectual animal something different.

The necessity of transformation cannot be born without having comprehended such a necessity. This comprehension emerges when one has the Gnostic Knowledge.

When one thinks differently and positively about people, it is a sign that one is changing. We need to cease being what we are in order to become what we are not. One has to become missing to oneself. The outcome of all of this is the advent of someone who is not oneself.

On the path of the transformation of impressions, we have to be sincere with ourselves and we do not have to persuade ourselves. Justification appears in us in the beginning; however we need to study that such a justification might be the fruit of self-esteem.

We need to discover the causes and motives of our behavior while in the presence of impressions. When impressions are transformed, everything becomes new.

Only the Masters of the Occult Fraternity can immediately transform their impressions, whereas human machines do not transform them.

Those situations which were brought about through past, present and future impressions can only be modified by a conscious human being. Therefore, if people will not be capable of transforming their circumstances, they will continue being toys of circumstances and of others.

Life has an objective. A superior world is the objective of life. Thus, the Gnostic Teachings teach us how to live in a superior world, how to live in a solar and immortal humanity; if one would not accept a superior world, transformation would then not have a purpose, this is obvious.

Our mind, as it is now, is good for nothing. One needs to organize it, remodel it, furnish it, etc., in other words, to place it on a superior intellectual level.

In order to be able to transform our impressions, we need to reconstruct the scene just as it happened, to find out what hurt us the most. If there is no digestion of impressions, then nourishment from them will not be attained. If there is no nourishment, the essential bodies of the Being will languish.

The “I” is governed and nourished with the Hydrogen 48. Each day, each hour, new “I’s” are continuously being born. For instance: mosquitoes bother us, the rain also, etc. Therefore, an addition and subtraction of “I’s” always exist.

Good impressions should also be transformed. If during the day one has had three impressions which have affected his psychological mood, then they must be studied and transformed at night by utilizing an orderly procedure. Each “I” is connected with others; they are associated. The “I’s” conjoin together in order to form the same scene.

We have to be analytical and judicious in order to transform impressions, so that new faculties will appear as an outcome. When people do not transform themselves, they continue to have a shameful and ludicrous psychological state. One is devolving if the digestion of impressions does not exist.

Therefore, we have to digest the impressions the same day… Do not permit the sun to set on your anger! We have to see things as they are. We have to create the convenient mental apparatus or the mental stomach in order to not become victims of anything.

The System for the Transformation of the Impressions of the Day

1. Absolute relaxation.

2. Reach the state of meditation.

3. Relive the scene just as it occurred.

4. Seek within oneself the “I” which caused the problem.

5. By observing serenely, one places the ego in the defendant’s chair and one then proceeds with the judgment.

6. Ask the Divine Mother Kundalini for the disintegration of the “I” – problem.

-From Chapter I of “The Revolution of the Dialectic,” by Samael Aun Weor

The Great Battle

In Jeremiah, chapter 21, verse 8, it is written: "Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death." Man and woman can use sexual intercourse and the delights of love and kisses in order to become Gods or Demons.

From the dawn of life, a great battle has raged between the powers of Light and the powers of Darkness. The secret root of that battle lies in sex.

The correct interpretation of the Mysteries of Sex exists. The white magicians never ejaculate the semen. The black magicians always ejaculate the semen. The white magicians make the igneous serpent of our magical powers ascend through the medullar canal. The black magicians make the snake descend towards the Atomic Infernos of the human being.



Gods and Demons live in eternal struggle. The Gods defend the doctrine of chastity. The Demons hate chastity. In sex, the root of conflict between Gods and Demons is found.

The great battle takes place in the Astral Light. The Astral Light is the deposit of all of great Nature's past, present and future forms. The Astral Light is the Azoth and Magnesia of the ancient Alchemists, Medea's Flying Dragon, the Christians' INRI, the Tarot of the Bohemians. The Astral Light is a terrific sexual fire springing forth from the Sum's nimbus and is fixed to the Earth by the force of gravity and the weight of the atmosphere. The Sun is the one that attracts and repels such an enchanting and delightful light. The Astral Light is Archimedes' lever. The old Sage said: "Give me a fulcrum and I will move the universe."

The semen is the human being's Astral liquid. The semen is the Astral Light. The semen is the key to all powers and the key to all empires.

The Astral Light has two poles, one positive and the other negative. The ascending serpent is positive. The descending serpent is negative. When it ascends, it is the brazen serpent that healed the Israelites in the wilderness. When it descends, it is the tempting serpent of Eden.

When we know how to adore and kiss with infinite tenderness and supreme chastity, the serpent ascends. When we enjoy lust ardently and spill the cup, the serpent precipitates itself, inebriated with madness towards the Atomic Infernos of the human being.

In the region of Light live the beings who adore each other. In the region of Darkness live the souls who become inebriated with the chalice of lust, and who after getting drunk spill the cup. Those souls are consumed in the fire of their own lust.

The Earth is ruled by Christ and Javhe who live in eternal struggle. Christ is the leader of Gods. Jahve is the chief of Demons.



Javhe is that terribly perverse demon who tempted Christ when he took him atop a high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them. Thus, when tempting Christ, Javhe said: "ITABABO. All these things will I give thee, If thou wilt fall down and worship me." Christ answered and said unto him: "Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God, but thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."

Javhe is a terribly perverse fallen Angel. Javhe is the genius of evil. Christ is the leader of the great White Lodge and Javhe, his antithesis, is the chief of the great Black Lodge. The powers of Light and Darkness live in eternal struggle and that struggle is rooted in sex. The semen is the battlefield. In the semen, the Angels and Demons fight to the death. The medullar bone of the great conflict between Angels and Demons is sex. There is the problem. There is the root of all the white and black doctrines. Christ has his program of action, Javhe has his. The chosen follow the Christ. The great majority of human beings fanatically follow Javhe. Nevertheless, they all hide behind the cross.

In the Astral Cross, there is a mutual struggle between the columns of Angels and Demons. Facing each Angel, there is a Demon. Every human being has his double. Behold the mystery of the twin souls. The Lamas say that Devadatta was the brother and the rival of Buddha. He is the King of Hell.

The double is similar in everything to his own double. The doubles are analogous; they have the same tendencies, with the differences of the analogies of opposites. Facing a White Astrologer, there is a Black Astrologer. If a master teaches white Sexual Magic, his double will teach black Sexual Magic. The doubles are similar in everything but antithetical.

The physiognomy and the body of the doubles are similar because they are twins. This is one of the great mysteries of occultism. Every white soul has a black double, a contrary soul that antagonizes and combats him.

Love and anti-love mutually fight each other. Anael is the Angel of Love. Lilith is his tenebrous double. Lilith represents anti-love. In ancient times, Jamblicus, the great Theurgist, invoked these two Genii and then out of a river two children appeared: love and anti-love, Eros and Anteros, Anael and Lilith. The multitudes who witnessed Jamblicus' miracle prostrated themselves before the great Theurgist.

The disciple of the rocky path that leads to Nirvana is filled with ecstasy when he has the joy of contemplating Anael, the Angel of Love.



Anael presents himself before those who invoke him, who know how to call him. Anael is a beautiful child of the dawn. In the presence of the Angel of Love, we feel ourselves returning to the lost innocence of Eden. Anael's hair is like a golden waterfall falling onto his alabaster shoulders. The face of the Angel of Love has the rosy color of dawn. Anael wears a white tunic and he is indescribably beautiful. Anael is the Angel of Music and Love, the angel of beauty and tenderness, the delightful cupid of all lovers, the ecstasy of all adoration.

Lilith is Anael's rival brother, his evil antithesis, a terribly evil child, the infernal Angel of all great amorous deceptions, a monarch of the atomic hells of the human being.

Lilith cannot resist the look of the Angel of Love, but is the shadow of that Angel. Lilith has the presence of a terribly evil child. Lilith's hair is in disarray and discolored. The evil face and black tunic tells us clearly of a world of cruelty and bitterness.

Anael represents the positive ray of Venus. Lilith represents the negative ray of Venus.

The traditions of the great Kabbalists state that Adam had two wives: Lilith and Nahemah. Lilith is the mother of abortions, pederasty, sexual degeneration, homosexuality, infanticides, etc.Nahemah is the mother of adultery. Nahemah seduces with the enchantment of her beauty and her virginity.

When a man is unfaithful to his wife (who was given to him by the Lords of the Law) he receives a luciferic mark between the eyebrows. When a man marries a woman who does not belong to him, when he performs a marriage which is in violation of the Law; it is easy to recognize the error because on the day of the wedding, the bride appears to be bald. She covers so much of her head with a veil, that the hair does not show. The woman does this instinctively. Hair is the symbol of modesty in the woman, and in the weddings of Nahemah it is prohibited to display the hair. This is the Law.

The Angels of Light and the Angels of Darkness live in eternal struggle. The root of the great battle between the powers of Light and Darkness is in sex.

According to the great Law, every planet has two polarities. The positive ray of Mars is represented by Elohim Gibor. The negative ray of Mars is represented by the double of this Elohim. This double is called Andrameleck. The perverse demon Andrameleck is now reincarnated in China.

The supreme leader of the positive ray of the Moon is Jehovah. Chavajoth is exactly his antithesis, his rival brother. Jehovah directs the positive ray of the Moon. Chavajoth directs the negative ray of the Moon. Jehovah teaches white Sexual Magic; Chavajoth teaches black Sexual Magic.

Two Moons exist: the White Moon and the Black Moon. In the two Moons the universal, feminine forces of sexuality are represented.

Creation is the outcome of the evolving processes of sound. Sound is the expression of sexuality. The Angels create with the sexual power of the creative larynx.

The primordial, unmanifested sound (through its incessant evolving processes) is converted into energetic forms of stabilized, dense matter. The unmanifested, primordial sound is the still, small voice. The primordial sound contains in itself the masculine-feminine sexual forces. As we descend into the difficult Abyss of matter, these forces multiply and become more complicated. The positive pole of sound is the miraculous force which attracts us towards the unmanifested Absolute where only happiness reigns. The negative pole of sound is the tenebrous force which attracts us to this valley of bitterness. The positive pole is solar, Christic, divine. The negative pole is lunar and is represented by the Moon. The shadow of the White Moon is Lilith. The origin of fornication is in Lilith. The origin of separate individuality is in Lilith. The origin of the “I” is the Black Moon. The Black Moon is Lilith.

Jehovah works with the White Moon. Chavajoth works with the Black Moon. The creation of the phenomenal universe is impossible without the intervention of the lunar forces. Unfortunately, the dark forces of the Black Moon intervene and harm creation.

The Sun and the Moon represent the positive and negative poles of sound. The Sun and the Moon originate creation. The Sun is positive and the Moon negative. The Sun is the husband and the Moon is the wife; the devil Lilith gets in between and harms the great work; as above so below. The man is the Sun and the woman is the Moon. Lilith is the Satan that seduces them both and leads them to fornication and to the Abyss. Lilith is the Black Moon, the dark aspect of the White Moon, the origin of the “I” and of separate individuality. Jehovah does not have a Physical Body. Chavajoth has a Physical Body; he poses as a war veteran and works for the great Black Lodge. In the inner worlds, the black magician Chavajoth dresses in a red tunic and wears a red turban. This demon cultivates the mysteries of black Sexual Magic in a tenebrous cavern. He has many European disciples.

Jehovah lives normally in Eden. Eden is the Ethereal world. Everyone who returns to Eden is received by Lord Jehovah. The door of Eden is sex.

In the Astral, there exist temples of Light and temples of Darkness, and where the Light shines more clearly, the Darkness becomes more dense.



In Cataluna, Spain, there is a marvelous temple in the Jinn state. This is the Temple of Monserrat. In that temple, the Holy Grail is guarded. It is the silver chalice from which Jesus, the Christ, drank the wine during the Last Supper. In the Holy Grail is contained the coagulated blood of the Redeemer of the world. Tradition tells us that the Roman senator Joseph of Arimathea filled that chalice with royal blood at the foot of the Savior’s cross. The blood flowed from the wounds of the Adorable One and the chalice was filled.

In the temple of Monserrat live a group of masters of the great White Lodge. They are the Knights of the Holy Grail.

In other times, the Temple of Monserrat and the Holy Grail were visible to the whole world. Later, that temple with its Holy Grail was made invisible. The temple exists in the Jinn state. The temple with its Holy Grail was submerged into Hyperspace. Now we can only visit such a temple with the Astral Body or with the Physical Body in the Jinn state.

A Physical Body can be taken out of the tridimensional world and placed in the Fourth Dimension. All this can be performed through the wise use of Hyperspace. Soon, astrophysics will demonstrate the existence of Hyperspace. The indigenous tribes of America had a profound knowledge of the Jinn science. In Mexico, the Tiger Knights knew how to place the Physical Body in Hyperspace. In America, there are lakes, mountains and temples in the Jinn state. In Mexico, the Temple of Chapultepec is found in Jinn state (it is located in Hyperspace). The Master Huiracocha received the Initiation in this temple.



Next to every Temple of Light, there is a Temple of Darkness. Where the Light shines brighter, there the Darkness by contrast turns denser.

The Knights of the White Grail should inevitably fight against the Knights of the Black Grail.

The Witchcraft Salon located in Salamanca, Spain, is the fatal antithesis of the Temple of Monserrat.

Let us study this curious analogy of opposites. The Temple of the White Grail is a splendid monastery of the great Light. The Temple of Salamanca is a splendid monastery of Darkness.

The Monastery of Monserrat has two floors. The Witchcraft Salon also has two floors. The Temple of Monserrat is surrounded by beautiful and sweet gardens. The Witchcraft Salon also is surrounded by romantic gardens where each flower exhales a breath of death.



Both are splendid edifices. In both buildings, truth and justice are well spoken of. In both temples, order and culture reign. In both temples, sanctity and love are spoken of. This will astound the reader, and he might question himself, “How is it possible that in the temples of evil, sanctity and love are well spoken of?” Please, dear reader, don’t be disconcerted. Remember, dear brother or sister, that the Knights of the Black Grail are wolves dressed in sheep’s clothing. The adepts of the left hand love to ejaculate the Christonic semen; that is why they are black magicians. Their philosophy is the philosophy of fatality. For them, all good is evil. For them, all evil is good. The doctrine of Javhe is divine for them. The doctrine of Christ is diabolical for them; the lords of darkness hate the Christ. The sons of the Abyss hate the Divine Mother. In their regions, they violently attack all those who invoke the Divine Mother or her beloved son.

If the occult investigator goes into the Witchcraft Salon with his Astral Body, he will inevitably find a beautiful, spiral staircase which leads to the most secret place of the precinct. This is an elegant salon furnished with the splendid luxury of the lordly mansions of the XVII century. There shine the one-thousand-and-one night mirrors, the enchanted rugs, and all of Nahemah’s evil beauty. The governor of that mansion of fatality is Don Ramón Rubifero, distinguished Knight of the Black Grail, horrible demon of darkness.

How unfortunate are those disciples who visit the Witchcraft Salon! Nahemah’s fatal beauty will seduce them with all the delightful magic of her enchantments. Then they will roll down into the bottomless pit where we hear only the crying and the gnashing of teeth. For them it would have been better not to have been born at all or to have had a windmill stone tied around their necks and to have been thrown into the depths of the sea. –See Matthew 18:6, Mark 9:42, Luke 17:22

In the Temple of Monserrat shines the glory of the silver chalice with the blood of the Redeemer of the world. In the Temple of Salamanca shines the darkness of the Black Grail. In the Temple of Monserrat, cosmic festivals are celebrated. In the Temple of Salamanca, profane dances and disgusting witches’ Sabbaths are celebrated. The Knights of the Holy Grail worship the Christ and the Divine Mother. The Knights of the Black Grail worship Javhe and great Nature’s fatal shadow. That shadow is called Santa Maria (Holy Mary) (Editor’s Note: Samael explains elsewhere that this person is not Mary the mother of Jesus). The Kingdom of Santa Maria is the Abyss. The great battle between the powers of light and darkness is as ancient as eternity.

The medullar bone of that great battle is sex. The white magicians want the serpent to ascend. The black magicians want the serpent to descend. The white magicians follow the way of the perfect marriage. The black magicians love adultery and fornication.

There are masters of the great White Lodge. There are masters of the great Black Lodge. There are disciples of the great White Lodge. There are disciples of the great Black Lodge.

The disciples of the great White Lodge know how to move consciously and positively in the Astral Body. The disciples of the great Black Lodge also know how to travel in the Astral Body.



All of us children listened to many stories of witches and fairies. Our grandmothers used to always tell us stories of witches that at midnight rode on their brooms and traveled through the clouds. Although it will seem incredible to many students of occultism, Theosophy, Rosicrucianism, etc., those witches really do exist. They do not ride brooms as grandmothers believe, but they do know how to travel through the air. The so-called “witches” travel with their body of flesh and bones through space. They know how to make use of Hyperspace and travel from one place to another with the Physical Body. Soon astrophysics will discover the existence of Hyperspace. It can be demonstrated with hypergeometry. When a body submerges into Hyperspace, it is then said that it has entered the Jinn state. The body in the Jinn state escapes the Law of Gravity. Then it floats in Hyperspace.

There is volume and hypervolume. The so-called “witches” move in the hypervolume of curved space in which we live. Curved space does not belong exclusively to the planet Earth. Curved space corresponds to the infinity of the starry heavens. If cyclones constitute proof of terrestrial spiral motion, it is then very certain that the spiral rotation of all the suns, constellations and worlds is concrete evidence of the curvature of space.



The white magicians also know how to place the Physical Body in the Jinn state. Jesus walked on the waters of the Sea of Galilee by making intelligent use of Hyperspace. Buddha’s disciples, by making use of Hyperspace, could traverse a rock from side to side. In India there are yogis who, by making use of Hyperspace, can pass through fire without being burned. Peter, by using Hyperspace, escaped from prison and saved himself from the death penalty. The great Yogi Patanjali states in his aphorisms that by practicing a samyama on the Physical Body, it becomes as light as cotton and can float on air.

A samyama consists of three tempos: concentration, meditation and ecstasy. First, the Yogi concentrates on his Physical Body. Second, he meditates on his Physical Body inducing sleep. Third, full of ecstasy, he gets up from his bed with his body in the Jinn state. Then, he penetrates into Hyperspace and escaping from the Law of Gravity, he floats in the air.

The devotees of Santa Maria (witches and warlocks) do the same thing with formulas of Black Magi

With their bodies in Jinn state, the white magicians penetrate into a higher dimension. The black magicians penetrate into a lower dimension with their body in the Jinn state.

In Nature, there is always the subtraction and addition of infinite dimensions. We leave a dimension to penetrate another one, either higher or lower. This is the law.

The kingdom of Santa Maria is the Abyss of failures. The kingdom of Light is the region of the Gods.

In the kingdom of Light only those who have attained the state of supreme chastity can live. In the Abyss, chastity is a crime and fornication is law.

Whosoever views the elegant salon of Javhe-Tzimus will be dazzled by the luxury and happiness. There, he will meet thousands of female black magicians with the gifts of terribly evil beauty. The innocent soul who penetrates those evil regions could very easily go astray, into the wrong way and fall forever into the Abyss of perdition. Nahemah’s evil beauty is dangerous.

In the Temple of Light, we only witness love and wisdom. There, the tenebrous ones cannot enter because they live in a lower dimension.

Nahemah’s beauty is fatal. Those beings who loved so much, those beings who swore to love each other forever could have been happy. Unfortunately, enchanted by Nahemah’s fatal beauty, they adored another one’s spouse and fell into the Abyss of desperation. In the salon of Javhe-Tzimus, the beauty of Nahemah fatally shines.

The black magicians have a sacred symbol. This symbol is the copper cauldron. The white magicians have the holy cross as their sacred symbol. The latter is phallic. The insertion of the vertical phallus into the horizontal uterus forms the cross. The cross has the power to create. There can be no creation without the sign of the holy cross. Animal species are crossed; atoms and molecules are crossed to perpetuate life.

The blessed roses of spirituality bloom on the cross of the perfect marriage. The perfect marriage is the union of two beings: one who loves more and the other who loves better. Love is the best religion available to the human species.



The black magicians hate the perfect marriage. Nahemah’s fatal beauty and Lilith’s sexual crimes are the antithesis of the perfect marriage.

The white magician worships the inner Christ. The black magician worships Satan. This is the “I,” the me, the myself, the reincarnating ego. In fact, the “I” is the specter of the threshold itself. It continually reincarnates to satisfy desires. The “I” is memory. In the “I” are all of the memories of our ancient personalities. The “I” is Ahriman, Lucifer, Satan.

Our real Being is the inner Christ. Our real Being is of a universal Nature. Our real Being is not a superior or inferior “I.” Our real Being is impersonal, universal, divine. He transcends every concept of “I,” me, myself, ego, etc. The black magician strengthens his Satan and upon this he bases his fatal power. Satan’s form and size result from the degree of human evil. When we enter the path of the perfect marriage, Satan loses his volume and ugliness. We need to dissolve Satan. This is only possible with the perfect marriage.

We need to elevate ourselves to the angelic state. This is only possible by practicing Sexual Magic with the priestess-wife. Angels are perfect human beings.

There are two kinds of Sexual Magic: black and white. Those who practice white Sexual Magic never ejaculate the semen. Those who practice black Sexual Magic always ejaculate the semen.

The Bons and Drukpas of the “Red Cap” ejaculate the semen which they later collect from within the vagina (Editor’s Note: Master Samael later clarified this statement, saying that the Bons were not practicing black Tantra, they were simply extreme in their efforts). This semen mixed with the feminine sexual fluid is reabsorbed once again through the urethra, utilizing a tenebrous procedure.

The fatal result of that Black Tantra is the awakening of the serpent in an absolutely negative form. Then, instead of ascending through the medullar canal, it descends towards the atomic hells of the human being. This is Satan’s horrifying tail. Through the procedure, the Bons and Drukpas forever separate themselves from the Inner Christ and forever sink into the terrifying Abyss.

No white magician ejaculates the semen; the white magician treads the path of the perfect marriage.

Bons and Drukpas of the “Red Cap” want (by means of their own fatal procedure) to unite the solar and lunar atoms in order to awaken the Kundalini. The result of their ignorance is separation from the inner God forever.

The white magicians blend the solar and lunar atoms in their own sexual laboratory. This is what the perfect marriage is for. Blessed be woman. Blessed be love.



The great battle between the black and white magicians has its root in sex. The tempting serpent of Eden and the brazen serpent which healed the Israelites in the wilderness fight against each other. When the serpent ascends we become angels; when it descends we become demons.

During Sexual Magic, the three breaths of pure Akasha that descend through Brahman’s thread are reinforced. When the Magician ejaculates the semen, he loses billions of solar atoms that are replaced by billions of diabolical atoms, which the sexual organs collect with the nervous movement that takes place at the time of the ejaculation of semen. The satanic atoms try to ascend to the brain through Brahman’s thread, but the three breaths of Akasha precipitate them to the Abyss. When they crash against the black atomic God residing in the coccyx, the snake awakens and moves downward to form the devil’s tail in the Astral Body.

Angels are perfect Human Beings. The perfect marriage is necessary in order to rise to the angelic state. Demons are perverse beings.

Two types of Sexual Magic exist: white and black. Those who practice white Sexual Magic never in their lives spill the semen. Those who practice black Sexual Magic spill the semen.

The Bons and Drukpas of the Black Lodge of Tibet spill the semen. These tenebrous beings, after spilling their semen retrieve it from within the feminine vulva with a special instrument. Later, they reabsorb it through the urethra using a black power, a variety of Vajroli mudra, which we do not divulge so as not to propagate the fatal science of Darkness.

The black magicians believe they can mix the solar and lunar atoms in this way to awaken the Kundalini. The result is that instead of ascending through the medullar canal, the spinal fires descend towards the atomic hells of the human being and turn into the tail of Satan.

The white magicians mix the solar and lunar atoms in their own sexual laboratory without committing the crime of spilling any seminal liquor.

Thus, the Kundalini awakens positively and ascends victoriously through the medullar canal. This is the angelic way.

The white magician aspires to the angelic state. The lords of the dark countenance want to reach the grade of Anagarikas.

The souls who follow the way of the perfect marriage unite with their inner God and rise to the kingdom of the Super-Man.

The souls who hate the way of the perfect marriage separate from their inner God and submerge into the Abyss.



The white magician makes the sexual energy ascend through the sympathetic canals of the spinal medulla. These two cords are entwined around the spinal medulla, forming the holy eight. These are the two witnesses of the Apocalypse.

"Fill your chalice, brother, with the Sacred Wine of Light.”

Remember, the chalice is the brain. You need the eyes of the eagle and the igneous wings.

The tenebrous ones struggle to take you from the real path. Know that the three gravest dangers which await the student are mediums of spiritualism, the false prophets and prophetesses and sexual temptations.

This is the Path of the Razor’s Edge; this path is full of dangers inside and out.

Live alert and keep a watchful eye as the watchman in wartime. Do not let yourself be caught off guard by those who consider sex a purely animal function without any spiritual transcendence of any kind. As a rule, false prophets hate sex and exhibit novel doctrines to surprise the weak, to fascinate them and to lead them to the Abyss.

Do not become confused by the false statements of the tenebrous ones. Remember that spiritualist mediums often serve as vehicles for black entities. These entities pose as saints and advise against the perfect marriage. Usually, they declare themselves Jesus Christ or Buddha, etc., to cheat the fools.

Beware of the temptations that await you. Be prudent and watchful.

Remember that in sex the great battle between the powers of Light and Darkness is found.

Everyone who enters the path of the perfect marriage must be very careful of the three very grave dangers. The tenebrous ones struggle tirelessly to take you from the path of the perfect marriage.

Do not be seduced by the sublime doctrines that advise the ejaculation of the semen, because they are of black magic. The king of the diabolical atoms awaits in the coccyx for the opportunity to awaken the serpent negatively, in order to direct it downward. With the ejaculation of semen, the black atomic god receives a formidable electrical impulse, enough to awaken the serpent and direct it toward the atomic hells of the human being. This is how the human being becomes a demon. Thus, this is how he falls into the Abyss.

-Chapter 3: The Great Battle, from "The Perfect Matrimony" by Samael Aun Weor

Fatality

When the dark age arrived, the colleges of Initiation were closed. This was a fatality. Henceforth, as a matter of fact, the great black lodges, which were born during the archaic darkness of the ancient times, became more active. The limit of light is darkness. Next to every temple of light another of darkness exists, and where the light more brightly shines, there darkness becomes more dense.

The colleges of Initiation from Egypt, Greece, India, China, Mexico, Yucatan, Peru, Troy, Rome, Carthage, Chaldea, etc., had their dangerous antipodes, their fatal antitheses, tenebrous schools of black magic, fatal shadows of the light.

Those schools of black magic were the shadows of the colleges of Initiation. Thus, when the colleges were closed, these fatal schools became very active.



Therefore, it is not strange to find among these dens of the black lodge terms, sciences, and rituals similar to those that were used within the colleges of Initiation. This confuses the devotees of the path. By nature, the devotee is a lover of the “strange,” of the “exotic,” of the “distant,” and of the “impossible.” Therefore, when the devotees find a black magician of this type, speaking of the Egyptian, Mayan, Aztec, Inca, Greek, Chaldean, Persian mysteries, etc., they then ingenuously believe they have caught God by the beard and place themselves in the hands of the black magician, believing him to be white.

These magicians of darkness abound wherever there existed colleges of Initiation. They are the antitheses of those colleges and they speak like Masters, always boasting about being initiates of those colleges. They never say anything that could arouse suspicion. They show that they are kind and humble, defend the good and the truth, adopt tremendously mystical attitudes, etc. Evidently, under such conditions the naive and inexperienced devotee abandons the Path of the Razor’s Edge and entrusts himself fully to those wolves in sheep’s clothing. That is a fatality.



Those schools of black magic are everywhere. We remember the dissident sect of the Mayans. Their adepts were expelled from the White Mayan Lodge. They are black magicians. They established a school between the Yucatan and Guatemala. Presently, this school of Mayan black magic has active agents in Mexico and Guatemala. Nonetheless, who would dare to doubt these tenebrous people who say they are Mayan princes and great priests? These people still speak with much reverence about Teoti, the Supreme God, creator and maintainer of the world. They become ecstatic when remembering Bacabes, the Mayan trinity, and Camaxtli, punisher of the evil ones, etc. Under these circumstances it is very difficult to detect such tenebrous people. When the devotee entrusts himself to them, they then take him to their temples where they initiate him. Clearly the devotee naively becomes a black magician. A devotee under these circumstances would never accept that he should be classified as a black magician. The Abyss is full of sincerely mistaken people and people of very good intentions.

Thus, on the banks of the Nile, as well as in the sacred land of the Vedas, there appear many tenebrous people like this. Indeed, they are now very active, struggling to increase their numbers.



If the student wants a key in order to discover these people in the shadows, we shall give it to him with great pleasure. Speak to the person about White Sexual Magic without the spilling of the semen. Mention scientific chastity to them. Tell them that you never spill your semen. This is the key. You can be sure that if the suspected person is really a black magician, he will try every means to convince you that Sexual Magic is bad for the health, that it is harmful, and will suggest to you the idea of spilling the semen.

Be careful, good disciple, of such people who advise you to spill the Cup of Hermes. They are black magicians. Do not let them seduce you with their sweet words, exotic manners or strange names. Every devotee who spills the Cup of Hermes inevitably falls into the Abyss of fatality. Be vigilant. Remember that the Path of the Perfect Matrimony is the Path of the Razor’s Edge. This path is full of dangers, both within and without. Many are they who begin, but it is very difficult to find someone who does not leave the path.

(Cagliostro)

The case of an initiate in the time of Count Cagliostro comes into my memory. This student practiced Sexual Magic intensely with his wife, and of course, naturally acquired degrees, powers, Initiation, etc. Everything went very well until the day he had the weak misfortune to reveal his intimate matters to an occultist friend. Such friend was shocked, and armed with great erudition, advised the initiate to abandon his practice of Sexual Magic in which the semen was not ejaculated. The teachings of his mistaken friend misguided the initiate. Henceforth, he dedicated himself to practice Sexual Magic with the spilling of the Cup of Hermes. The outcome was disastrous. The Kundalini of the initiate descended to the magnetic center of the coccyx. This is how he lost his degrees and powers, sword and cape, sacred tunics and mantles. This was a true disaster. This was a fatality.

It is good to know that black magicians love to strengthen the mind. They asseverate that only through the mind can man resemble God. The magicians from darkness mortally hate chastity.



The devotees of the path who abandoned the Path of the Perfect Matrimony in order to become disciples of the black lodge can be found in the millions. It happens that the devotees of occultism are attracted by the “strange,” by the novel and mysterious, and when they find a “strange” magician they immediately place themselves in his hands, like any vulgar prostitute of the mind. This is a fatality.

Whosoever wants to be born as a Cosmic Angel, whosoever wants to transform himself into an Angel with power over Fire, Air, Water, and Earth, whosoever wants to transform himself into a God, must in fact not let himself become trapped by all of these dangerous temptations.

It is very difficult to find people who are sufficiently firm and constant in order to never abandon the Path of the Perfect Matrimony. The human being is extremely weak. This is a fatality.

For many are called, but few are chosen.

Therefore, if through our doctrine we achieve the elevation of a few beings to an angelic state, then we will consider our job done.
