Alchemy_of_Fire > From knowledge to mental liberation, stage 8 by (2985 reads) | To accelerate events is a sign of inexperience; the inexperienced man plans to build the roof of his philosophic home before providing for steady foundations and solid walls.

Alchemy_of_Fire > From knowledge to mental liberation, stage 7 by (3018 reads) | The most significant step for personal progress is to acknowledge that we know nothing (nothing substantial). To discover that we don’t know is the flash of intelligence that prepares us to welcome all that is new and unknown with modesty. On the contrary, to be satisfied with what we know is the anteroom of intellectual sleep. The people who don’t feel curious for the new and different, or don’t feel inside them the drive towards harmony and beauty, think that to perfect themselves is a chore that they can’t face.

Alchemy_of_Fire > Sexual Alchemy by (6292 reads) | Sexual power and mental power are different results of the same energy. The difference is given by its use. To concentrate the strength on a particular function (activity of sex or thought) means to reduce the action of the other. For this reason the process of transformation is based on the arrangement of the strengths, where balance is very important. We know methods for strengthening sexual or mental activities and we can resume them in the sentence: “transfers of energy”. The ability to move energy is the heart of the system; once this is clear, everything comes as a consequence.

The precision of the Prayer is very important for the purpose of the Great Inner Work; every quietist doctrine is an error of method. The Inner Way of the Incognito Philosopher appears to be quietist only in its general aspects, never in its practical and operating applications.

In the Hebrew Cabbala it is said that the Tree of Life corresponds, in the manifested world, to a Small Tree of Life called “Kallah”, the Bride. Reversed and in opposition with it there is “Qliphah”, the Prostitute of the Small Tree of Death. On the Tree of Life the Sephiroths, or spheres of evolutional manifestation, blossom and irradiate. The Qlippoth, or spheres of involutional manifestation, blossom and irradiate on the Tree of Death. Also in the Christian Tradition the Seven Virtues are opposed by the Seven Sins.

Alchemy_of_Fire > From knowledge to mental liberation, stage 5 by (3112 reads) | For a long time man is a social animal; he is prone to submissiveness and he wishes to please the other elements of his group.
