Of
the Origin of Esoteric Teachings
"The so
called 'esoteric' teaching was transmitted orally and even fixed in writing,
often in a coded way from the Wise men who made certain that Knowledge did
not become a tool for power and domination. It is said that the library of
Alexandria held numerous such books in which was transcribed the knowledge
of men who had had Contacts. ... For each era of Humanity, this Inner
Revelation must adapt to the Path already covered and express itself in a
new language."

Limits
and Possibilities of the Esoteric Initiatory Systems
Keys concerning Qabalistic, Spagyric and Alchemical paths are given.
"Each student on the Path has in mind the initiation which he expects
will allow him to master his inner worlds, and especially the one on the
level of the heart that gives a conscious contact between the little king of
the Earth and the Inner Self. You must understand that the authentic
Initiation is not given by anyone but the student himself, and more
precisely by his Inner Self. It is said: 'When the student is ready, the
master will appear'."

Points
of Balance An
attempt to interpret the philosophical tenets of the PON. "Some
would condemn us, saying that if we convey the truths of Alchemy, we profane
the Divine Science, and that if we do not, we are advertising falsely. With
the warmest of fraternal greetings, I will pose a paradox. One law of Nature
well understood is worth a thousand recipes with no understanding, for even
if the recipes ‘work’, the alchemist has not evolved. Paradoxically,
experimentation with the recipes may provide the basis for the realization
of the law. It is not against the law to point the way to the Temple of
Light, but we must let each one have the Joy of Realization in absolute
freedom, without Guru, without Master, without Priest, for each is the 'son
of their deeds'."

Force
Fields and Fulcanelli, "At
that time, I had an experience which was both physical and 'subtle' which
convinced me that the distillation of amalgams can create a force field of
significant proportions. Further, I was satisfied by certain facts of the
experiment that there was no self-delusion nor expectation of an experience
on my part, and that the force field induces chemical changes within the
operator."

ABRAHADABRA:
Some Thoughts on The Word
"In the end, however, while the answers may be different, the
effects of unraveling the mystery of abrahadrabra will be the same in each
of us, as it will be a further increase in our understanding of the Interior
Light, and the expression of our Divinity."

ORA
Project: A Followup to the Lucid Dreaming Project
"The techniques described are among the simplest and most effective
we know of for attaining inner resonance, and as stated several times, with
little addition to your daily schedule as they are performed for a few
minutes at night prior to sleep, and even if desired, for a minute or so in
the morning upon awakening. Their purpose is to attune each of us to the
specific qualities of the day - either through astrological symbols or
Hebrew letters - or other archetypal qualities as expressed through the
twelve simply and three mother letters of Hebrew."
-
ORA
Project: A Qabalistic Guide to Astral Projection and Lucid Dreaming
"Unlike other methods of projection, through regular practice, the
method outlined here will in most cases work gently and progressively, i.e.
increased dreaming, then lucid dreaming, and finally astral projection, thus
allowing for an acclimation of consciousness to these new states of
being."
