RESURRECTION AND REINCARNATION
Beings who love each other are able to become immortal like the Gods. Happy is he who can already eat at the delicious fruits of the Tree of Life. Know beloved, that there are two exquisite trees in Eden that even share their roots. One is the Tree of Knowledge. The other is the Tree of Life. The first gives you Wisdom. The second makes you Immortal.
Everyone who has worked in the Great Work has the right to eat of the delicious fruits of the Tree of Life. Really, Love is the Summum of Wisdom.
Those men and women who follow the Path of the Perfect Matrimony finally gain the joy of entering Nirvana This is to forget the world and man forever.., It is impossible to describe the joy of Nirvana There, every tear has disappeared forever. There the Soul, divested of the four bodies of sin, submerges in the infinite joy of the Music of the Spheres. Nirvana is sacred star-filled space.
The Masters of Compassion, moved by human pain, renounce the great joy of Nirvana and resolve to stay with us in this valley of great bitterness.
Every Perfect Matrimony inevitably reaches Adepthood. Every Adept can renounce Nirvana for love of the Great Orphan. When the Adept renounces the supreme happiness of Nirvana, he may ask for the Elixir of Long Life. The privileged who receive the marvelous Elixir die but do not die. On the third day they are raised. This has already been demonstrated by the Adorable.
On the third day the Adept comes before the sepulchre accompanied by Holy Women who bring medicines and aromatic unguents. The Angels of Death and other ineffable hierarchies also accompany the Adept.
The Adept calls out in a great voice invoking his physical body which sleeps within the Holy Sepulchre. The body is raised and can escape from the sepulchre taking advantage of the existence of hyperspace. In the Superior Worlds the physical body is treated by the Holy Women with medicines and aromatic unguents. After the body has returned to life, obeying supreme orders, it enters the sidereal head of the Soul-Master. Thus he regains possession of his glorified body. This is the precious gift of Cupid.
Every resurrected body normally lives within the superior worlds. Nevertheless we
should clarify that the resurrected Masters can make themselves visible and tangible in any place and then disappear in stantaneously. The memory of Count Cagliostro comes to mind. This Great Master fulfilled a great political mission in Europe and astounded the whole of humanity. This Great Master was really the one who provoked the fall of the Kings of Europe. In fact, we owe the Republic to him. He lived during the time of Jesus Christ, was a personal friend of Cleopatra, worked for Catherine de Medici. He was known during various centuries in Europe. He used various names such as Giuseppe Balsamo, Count Cagliostro etc.The immortal Bãbãji, the yogi Christ of India, still lives in India. ‘This Master was the instructor of the Great Masters who lived through the terrifying night of time. Nevertheless, this sublime elder looks like a young man of twenty five.
Let us remember Count Zanoni, a youth despite his thousand years. Unfortunately, this Chaldean sage failed completely because he fell in love with an actress from Naples. He made the mistake of uniting with her and spilling the Glass of Hermes. The result was horrible. Zanoni died on the guillotine during the French Revolution.
Resurrected Masters travel from one place to another using hyper space. This can be demonstrated by hypergeometry. Astrophysics will soon discover the existence of hyperspace.
Sometimes the resurrected Masters, after fulfilling a particular mis sion in some country, allow themselves the luxury of passing for dead. On the third day they repeat their resurrection and leave for another country to work under a different name. In this way Cagliostro, two years after his death appeared in other cities using a different name in order to continue his work.
The Perfect Matrimony converts us into Gods. Great is the joy of Love. In fact only love confers upon us immortality. Blessed be love; blessed the beings who adore each other.
RESURRECTION AND REINCARNATION
Many students of occultism confuse resurrection with reincarnation. The gospels have always been very poorly interpreted by occultist students. There are various types of resurrection, just as there are various types of reincarnation. This is what we shall clarify in this chapter.
Every true Adept has a Body of Paradise. This body is of flesh and bone, however, this is flesh that does not come from Adam. The Body of Paradise is formed with the best atoms of the physical organism.
Many Adepts resurrect with this Body of Paradise in the superior worlds after death. With this Body of Paradise resurrected Masters can visit the physical world and make themselves visible and tangible at will. This is a type of ineffable resurrection. Nevertheless, we affirm that the resurrection with the mortal body of Adam, though more painful due to the return to this valley of bitterness, is be cause of this, more glorious. All the Adepts of the Secret Path who form the Guardian Wall have resurrected with the body of Adam.
There are also initiatic resurrections. The third Initiation of Fire signifies the resurrection in the astral world. Everyone who passes through the third Initiation of Fire, has to live the drama of the Christ in the astral world; life, passion, death and resurrection.
REINCARNATION OF THE PERSONALITY
The personality is time. The personality lives in its own time and does not reincarnate. After death the personality also goes to the grave. For the personality there are no tomorrows. The personality lives in the cemetery wanders about the cemetery or goes down into its grave. It is neither the astral body nor the etheric double. It is not the Soul. It is time. It is energetic and it disintegrates very slowly. The personality can never reincarnate. It does not ever reincarnate. There are no tomorrows for the human personality.
That which continues, which reincarnates, is not the Soul either be cause the human being still does not have Soul. In fact it is the ego that reincarnates, the “I”, the reincarnating principle. The ghost of death, the remembrance, the memory, the error that is perpetuated.
LIFE-SPAN
The unit of life of any living creature is equivalent to one beat of it’s heart. Every living thing has a defined period of time. The life of a planet is 2,700,000,000 beats. That same quantity corresponds to the ant, the worm, the eagle, the microbe, to man and in general to all creatures. The life span of each world and each creature is propor tionally the same. Clearly, the beat of a world occurs every 27,000 years, but the heart of an insect beats more rapidly. An insect that lives for only one summer evening, has had in its heart the same number of beats as a planet, except that those beats have been more rapid.
Time is not a straight line, as the erudite ignoramuses believe. Time is a closed curve. Eternity is another thing. Eternity has nothing to do with time, and what is beyond eternity and time is known only by the Great Illuminated Adepts, the Masters of Humanity.
There are three known dimensions and three unknown dimensions; a total of six fundamental dimensions.
The three known dimensions are length, width and depth. The three unknown dimensions are time, eternity and what is beyond time and eternity. This is the spiral of six curves.
Time belongs to the fourth dimension; eternity to the fifth dimension; that which is beyond eternity and time, to the sixth dimension. The personality lives in a closed curve of time. She is a daughter of her time and ends with her time. Time cannot reincarnate. There are no tomorrows for the human personality.
The circle of time revolves within the circle of eternity. In eternity there is no time, but time revolves within the circle of eternity. The Serpent always bites its own tail. A time and a personality end, but with the turning of the wheel, a new time and a new personality appear upon the Earth. The ego is reincarnated and everything is repeated. Th. last realizations, sentiments, preoccupations affections and words cause all the sexual sensations and all the amorous drama which gives rise to a new physical body. All the romances of mar ried couples and lovers are related to the last moments of the dying. “The path of life is formed by hoofprints of the horse of death.” At death, time closes and eternity opens. The cirde of eternity first opens and then closes when the ego returns to the circle of time.
RECURRENCE
The initiates of the Fourth Way define recurrence as the repetition of acts, scenes and events. Everything is repeated. The Law of Recurrence is a tremendous re ality. In each reincarnation the same events are repeated. The repetition of acts is accompanied by its corresponding karma. This is the law that reconciles effects to the causes that gave rise to them. Every repetition of acts carries karma and sometimes dharma (recompense). Those who work with the Great Arcanum, those who tread the straight, narrow and difficult Path of the Perfect Matrimony, are freed little by little from the Law of Recurrence. This law has a limit. Beyond that limit we become Angels or Devils. With White Sexual Magic we become Angels. With Black Sexual Magic we become Devils.
THE QUESTION OF PERSONALITY
This question of the personality, child of its time, that dies in its time merits our attention. In reality it is completely clear that if the per sonality were to reincarnate, time would also reincarnate, and this is absurd because time is a closed curve. A Roman man who rein carnated in these modern times of the twentieth century with the personality of the time of the Caesars, would in fact be intolerable; we would have to treat him as a delinquent because his customs would in no way correspond to those we have today.
THE RETURNS OF THE EGO
The symbol of Jesus expelling the merchants of the Temple with whip in hand is concerned with a tremendous reality of death and horror. We have already said that the “I” is pluralised. The “I”, the ego, is a legion of devils. Many readers will not like this statement, but it is the truth and this we must say, even though we may not like to.
During the work with the demon, during the work of the dissolution of the ego, parts of the “I”, subhuman entities, entities that possess part of our consciousness and our life, are eliminated, cast out of our internal Temple. Sometimes these entities reincarnate in animal bodies. Many times it will have happened that while in zoos we have met forms discarded from ourselves, living in animal bodies. There are people so animalistic that if everything animal was re moved from them, nothing would remain. This class of people are lost cases. The Law of Recurrence has ended for these people. The Law of Reincarnation has ended for them. This type of person can reincarnate into animal bodies, or enter definitively into the abyss. There they disintegrate slowly.
ADVANTAGES OF RESURRECTION
Whoever renounces Nirvana for love of humanity is able to conserve his physical body for millions of years. Without resurrection the Adept would find himself needing to constantly be changing bodies. This would be a clear disadvantage. With the resurrection, the Adept does not need to change his body. He can conserve his vehicle for millions of years.
The body of a resurrected Adept is totally transformed. The Soul within the body transforms it totally, converting it also into Soul, until the Adept becomes totally Soul.
A resurrected body has its fundamental seat in the internal worlds. It lives in the internal worlds and only makes itself visible in the physical world by means of the Will. Thus a resurrected Master may appear or disappear instantly where he wishes. No one can appre hend or incarcerate him. He travels within the astral plane to wher ever he wants.
The most interesting thing for the resurrected Adept is the great leap. When the time comes the resurrected Master can take his body to another planet. The resurrected Master can live with his resurrected body on another planet. This is one of the great advantages.
Evezy resurrected Adept is able to make the things of the astral visible and tangible by transferring them to the physical plane. This can be explained because the Master has his fundamental seat in the astral, although he can manifest himself physically. Cagliostro, the enigmatic Count Cagliostro, after his departure from the Bastille invited his friends to
a banquet. There, in the midst of the feast he invoked many deceased spirits, who also sat at the table to the amaze ment of the guests.
On another occasion as if by magic, Cagliostro made a precious golden dinner service appear, from which his guests ate. The powerful Count Cagliostro used to transmute lead into gold and made pure diamonds of the highest quality through the vilification of car bon.
The powers of every resurrected Master are a real advantage.
A great friend, a resurrected Adept, who currently lives in the Great Tartarus, told me the following: “Before swallowing earth one is no more than an idiot. One thinks one knows much but knows nothing. One only really comes to be good, when one has already swallowed earth; before this one knows nothing.” He also said to me: “The Masters fall because of sex.” This reminds us of Count Zanoni. He fell when he ejaculated the semen. Zanoni was a resurrected Master. He fell in love with an actress from Naples and he fell. Zanoni died on the guillotine during the French Revolution.
Whoever wants to achieve resurrection has to follow the Path of the Perfect Matrimony. There is no other path. Only with Sexual Magic can we attain resurrection.
Only with Sexual Magic can we liberate ourselves from the wheel of reincarnations in a positive and transcendental manner.
THE LOSS OF THE SOUL
In preceding chapters we have already said that the human being has still not incarnated his Soul. Only with Sexual Magic can we engender the internal vehicles. They, as with plants, sleep latent within the hard darkness of the grain, of the seed which is deposited in the seminal system. When the human being has the Christic vehicles, he can incarnate his Soul. Whoever does not work with the Grain, whoever does not practise Sexual Magic cannot germinate his Christic bodies. Whoever does not have Christic bodies, can nei ther incarnate his Soul. He loses his Soul, and in the long term submerges in the abyss where he disintegrates slowly. Jesus, the Great Master, said, ‘For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Whoever does not incarnate his Soul, loses it. He who does not have Christic vehicles does not incarnate Soul. Whoever does not work with the Grain does not have Christic vehicles. Whoever does not practise Sexual Magic does not work with the Grain. The resurrec hon of the dead is only for Men with Soul. In fact only Men with Soul are true Men in the fullest sense of the word. Only true Men can achieve the Great Resurrection. Only Men with Soul can endure the funereal trials of the thirteenth Arcanurn. These trials are more horrifying than death itself.
Those who do not have a Soul are sketches of men, phantoms of death. That is all. The vehicles of men without Soul are ghostly vehicles; they are not the authentic vehicles of Fire. In reality men with out Soul are not true Men. In fact the human being is still an unrealized being. Very few are they who have Soul. The great majority of beings called human still do not have Soul. Of what use is it for man to accumulate all the riches of the world if he loses his Soul?
The Resurrection of the Dead is only for Men with Soul. Real immortality is only for Men with Soul.
LOVE AND DEATH
To many readers it may seem strange that we relate love with death and resurrection. In Hindustani mythology, love and death are the two faces of the one deity. Siva, the God of the universal sexual crea tive force, is at the same time the God of violent death and destruc hon. The wife of Siva also has two faces. She is at one and the same time Pãrvati and Káli. As Pârvati, she is supreme beauty, love and happiness. As Káli or Durgä, she can transform herself into death, disgrace and bitterness.
Siva and Káli together symbolise the Tree of Knowledge, the Tree of the Science of Good and Evil.
Love and Death are twin brothers who never separate. The path of life is formed by the hoofprints of the Horse of Death.
The error of many cults and schools lies in their being unilateral. They study death but do not want to study love, when in fact these are the two faces of the Deity.
The diverse doctrines of the orient and the occident really believe that they know Love, when in fact they do not. Love is a cosmic phenomenon in which the history of the Earth and its races are sim ple accidents.
Love is the mysterious magnetic and occult force which the Alche mist needs to fabricate the Philosophical Stone and the Elixir of Long Life, without which Resurrection is impossible.
Love is a force that the “I” can never subordinate because Satan can never subjugate God.
The erudite ignoramuses are mistaken about the origm of Love. The foolish are mistaken about its effect. It is stupid to suppose that the only objective of Love is the reproduction of the species. In fact Love unfolds and develops in a very different plane, which the swine of materialism ignore. Only an infinitesimal force of Love is used for the perpetuation of the species. What happens to the rest of the force? Where does it go? Where does it unfold? This is what the erudite ignoramuses ignore.
Love is energy and cannot be lost. The excess energy has other uses and purposes which people ignore.
The excess energy of Love is intimately related with thought, feel ing and will. Without sexual energy these faculties could not un fold. The creative energy is transformed into beauty, thought, feel ings, harmony, poetry, art, wisdom etc. The supreme transforma tion of creative energy produces as a result the awakening of consciousness and the Death and Resurrection of the Initiate.
Really, all the creative activity of humanity comes from the marvellous force of Love. Love is the marvelous force that awakens the mystical powers of man. Without Love the Resurrection of the Dead is impossible.
It is urgent to once again open the Temples of Love, to celebrate again the mystic festivals of Love. The Serpent of Fire only awakens with the enchantments of Love. If we want the resurrection of the Dead we first need to be devoured by the Serpent. The person who has not been devoured by the Serpent is worth nothing. If we want the Word to become Flesh in us, we need to practice Sexual Magic intensely. The Word is in the sex. The Lingam Yoni is the basis of all power.
First, we need to raise the Serpent upon the Staff and then be swallowed by the Serpent. Thus, we become Serpents. In India, the Adepts are called Nagas, Serpents. In Teotihuacan, Mexico, there is a marvelous temple of Serpents. Only the Serpents of Fire can Resurrect from the Dead.
An inhabitant of a two-dimensional world, with their two-dimensional psychology would believe that all the phenomena occurring in that plane would have their cause and effect, their birth and death there. Such phenomena would for these beings, be identical. All phenomena which came from the third dimension would be taken by these two-dimensional beings as unique facts of their two-dimensional world; they would not accept being told of a third dimension because for them, only their flat, two-dimensional world would exist. Nevertheless, if these flat beings would resolve to aban don their two-dimensional psychology in order to deeply compre hend the causes of all the phenomena of their world, they could then depart from it and discover with astonishment a great unknown world the three-dimensional world. The same thing happens with the question of Love. People believe that Love is only to perpetuate the species. People only believe that Love is vulgarity, carnal pleasure, violent desire, satisfaction etc. Only the person who can see beyond these animal passions, only the person who renounces this type of animal psychology can discover in other worlds and dimensions the grandeur and majesty of that which is called Love. People sleep profoundly. People live sleeping and dream about Love, but they have not awakened to Love. They sing about Love and believe that Love is that which they dream. When man awakens to Love, he makes himself conscious of Love and recognizes that he was dreaming. Then and only then does he discover the true meaning of Love.
Only then does he discover that, which before he dreamed of. Only then does he come to know that which is called Love. This awaken ing is similar to that of the man who, being far from the physical body in the astral body, realizes that he has awakened conscious ness. People walk asleep in the astral. When someone realizes that he is dreaming and then says, “This is a dream, I am dreaming, I am in the astral body, I am outside my physical body”, the dream dis appears as if by magic and then the individual is awake in the astral world. A new and marvellous world appears before he who before was dreaming his consciousness has awakened. Now he can know all the marvels of nature. So also is the awakening of Love. Before that awakening we dream about Love. We take those dreams as reality believe we are loving, live in a world of passions, romances, occasionally delicious, disillusionments, vain oaths, carnal desires, jealousies etc., etc., and believe that this is love. We are dreaming and we ignore it.
The Resurrection of the Dead is impossible without Love, because Love and Death are the two faces of the same deity. It is necessary to awaken to Love to attain Resurrection.
It is urgent to renounce our three-dimensional psychology and the crude facts, in order to discover the meaning of Love in the fourth, fifth and sixth dimensions.
Love comes from the superior dimensions. Whoever does not renounce his three-dimensional psychology vill never discover the true meaning of Love, because Love does
not have its origin in the three-dimensional world. The flat being who does not renounce his two-dimensional psychology would believe that the only reality in the universe is lines, the changes of colour of the lines in the plane, etc. A flat being would ignore that the lines and the change of colour in certain lines, could be the result of the turning of a wheel with multicoloured spokes, perhaps that of a carriage. The two-dimensional being would ignore the existence of such a carriage, and with his two-dimensional psychology would not believe in such a car riage. He would only believe in the lines and the changes of colour seen in his world, without knowing that these are only effects of superior causes. So also are they who believe that Love is only of this three-dimensional world and who only accept the crude facts as the only true meaning of Love. People like this cannot discover the true meaning of Love. People like this cannot be devoured by the Serpent of Fire. People like this cannot Resurrect from the Dead.
All those poets, all those lovers have sung of Love, but none really knows that which is called Love. People only dream about that which is called Love. People have not awakened to Love.
