Emerald Tablets of Thoth

The Emerald Tablets of Thoth (also titled The Emerald Tablets of Thoth-The-Atlantean (ISBN 0966531205) This book has been reprinted by Source Books and Sacred Spaces, http://www.sacredspaces.org) are a series of 15 emerald tablets that were created by the Ascended Master Thoth to chronicle his journeys from the times of Atlantis until the times of Khem (Egypt), and to reveal to the reader various hidden magickal treatises and secrets. They have been found at the request of the Great White Lodge in 1925, and translated into English by Dr. Doreal, who had a connection with the Great White Brotherhood, the priesthood that still operated then at the Great Pyramid. The soul of Thoth is said to have passed into the bodies of men in the manner described in The Emerald Tablets of Thoth, a book of record and occult wisdom which he wrote and left in the Pyramid for those of a future Age of Light.http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/esp_thot_1.htm
==The Actual Tablets==
Of the actual physical tablets, of which there are twelve (and only of which 10 were translated into 13 sections, at first, with the last two supplemental sections being translated and added much later), Dr. Doreal describes them as thus:
The writings of Thoth consist of twelve Tablets of Emerald Green formed from a substance created through alchemical transmutation. They are imperishable, resistant to all elements, corrosion and acids. In effect, the atomic and cellular structure is fixed, and no change can take place, thus violating the material law of ionization.Upon them are engraved characters in the Ancient Atlantean language; characters which respond to the attuned thought waves of the reader and which release much more wisdom and information than the characters do when merely deciphered. The Tablets are fastened together with hoops of a golden colored alloy suspended from a rod of the same material." http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/esp_thot_1.htm
==History of the Tablets==
The text of the preface of Doreal's translation of the Tablets says the following:
The writer (who has a connection with the Great White Lodge which also works through the pyramid priesthood) was instructed to recover and return to the Great Pyramid the ancient tablets.This, after adventures which need not be detailed here, was accomplished. Before returning them, he was given permission to translate and retain a copy of the wisdom engraved on the tablets.This was done in 1925 and only now has permission been given for part to be published. It is expected that many will scoff. Yet the true student will read between the lines and gain wisdom.
The "Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean" were originally published in mimeographed form in the 1930s by the mysterious "Dr. Doreal," to the effect that these writings quickly became an underground sensation among metaphysicians of the time. Tablets 1-13 are part of the original work (comprising of 10 tablets) while tablets 14 and 15 are supplemental (being the last two tablets). No one has ever seen the original tablets mentioned here (perhaps they were returned to their place in the Pyramid?), and it is very likely that these writings would be considered channeled material today. However, the Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean are still part of the modern Corpus Hermeticum, for they elaborate and deepen the meaning of the historical Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus and supplement the many varied magickal writings of Thoth.
==The 15 Tablets==
===The History of Thoth, The Atlantean===
This particular tablet deals with the history of Thoth, wherein it is explained that his "passing" into the Halls of Amenti is not the same thing as dying, but returning to a place where he could return his body to bask in the rays of the Flower of Life, where its rays could preserve it. From the Halls, though, he could enter and become anyone he wished. And so he begins to tell his story.
I, THOTH, the Atlantean, master of mysteries,Now before me opens the portal. Go I down in the darkness of night.
=== The Key of Wisdom ===
I, Thoth, the Atlanteangive of my wisdom,give of my knowledge,give of my power,Freely I give to the children of menGive that they, too, might have wisdomto shine through the world from the veil of the night
Wisdom is power and power is wisdom, one with each other, perfecting the whole.
Be thou not proud, O man, in thy wisdom.Discourse with the ignorant as well as the wise.If one comes to thee full of knowledge, listen and heed, for wisdom is all.
Keep thou not silent when evil is spoken for Truthlike the sunlight shines above all.He who over-steppeth the Law shall be punished,for only through Law comes the freedom of men.Cause thou not fear for fear is a bondage, a fetter that binds the darkness to men.
Follow thine heart during thy lifetime.Do thou more than is commanded of thee.When thou hast gained riches,follow thou thine heart,for all these are of no avail ifthine heart be weary.Diminish thou not the time offollowing thine heart. It is abhorred of the soul.
They that are guided go not astray,but they that are lost cannot find a straight path.If thou go among men, make for thyself, Love, the beginning and end of the heart.
If one cometh unto thee for council,let him speak freely,that the thing for which he hathcome to thee may be done.If he hesitates to open his heart to thee, it is because thou, the judge, doeth the wrong.
Repeat thou not extravagant speech,neither listen thou to it,for it is the utterance of onenot in equilibrium.Speak thou not of it, so that he before thee may know wisdom.
Silence is of great profit.An abundance of speech profiteth nothing.Exalt not thine heart above the children of men, lest it be brought lower than the dust.
If thou be great among men,be honoured for knowledge and gentleness.If thou seeketh to know the nature of a friend,ask not his companion,but pass a time alone with him.Debate with him, testing his heart by his words and his bearing.
That which goeth into the store-house must come forth, and the things that are thine must be shared with a friend.
Knowledge is regarded by the fool as ignorance,and the things that are profitable are to him hurtful.He liveth in death. It is therefore his food.
The wise man lets his heart overflowbut keeps silent his mouth.O man, list to the voice of wisdom; list to the voice of light.
Mysteries there are in the Cosmosthat unveiled fill the world with their light.Let he who would be free from the bonds of darknessfirst divine the material from the immaterial,the fire from the earth;for know ye that as earth descends to earth,so also fire ascends untofire and becomes one with fire.He who knows the fire that is withinhimself shall ascend unto the eternal fire and dwell in it eternally.
Fire, the inner fire,is the most potent of all force,for it overcomethall things andpenetrates to all things of the Earth.Man supports himself only on that which resists. So Earth must resist man else he existeth not.
All eyes do not see with the same vision,for to one an object appears ofone form and colourand to a different eye of another.So also the infinite fire,changing from colour to colour, is never the same from day to day.
Thus, speak I, THOTH, of my wisdom,for a man is a fire burning brightthrough the night;never is quenched in the veil of the darkness, never is quenched by the veil of the night.
Into men's hearts, I looked by my wisdom,found them not free from the bondage of strife.Free from the toils, thy fire, O my brother, lest it be buried in the shadow of night!
Hark ye, O man, and list to this wisdom:where do name and form cease?Only in consciousness, invisible,an infinite force of radiance bright.The forms that ye create by brightening they vision are truly effects that follow thy cause.
Man is a star bound to a body,until in the end,he is freed through his strife.Only by struggle and toiling thyutmost shall the star within theebloom out in new life.He who knows the commencement of all things, free is his star from the realm of night.
Remember, O man, that all which existsis only another form of that which exists not.Everything that has being is passing into yet other being and thou thyself are not an exception.
Consider the Law, for all is Law.Seek not that which is not of the Law,for such exists only in the illusions of the senses.Wisdom cometh to all her children even as they cometh unto wisdom.
All through the ages,the light has been hidden. Awake, O man, and be wise.
Deep in the mysteries of life have I traveled, seeking and searching for that which is hidden.
List ye, O man, and be wise.Far 'neath the earth crust,in the Halls of Amenti, mysteries I saw that are hidden from men.
Oft have I journeyed the deep hidden passage,looked on the Light that is Life among men.There 'neath the flowers of Life ever living,searched I the hearts and the secrets of men.Found I that man is but living in darkness, light of the great fire is hidden within.
Before the Lords of hidden Amenti learned I the wisdom I give unto men.
Masters are they of the great Secret Wisdom,brought from the future of infinity's end.Seven are they, the Lords of Amenti,overlords they of the Children of Morning, Suns of the cycles, Masters of Wisdom.
Formed are not they as the children of men?THREE, FOUR, FIVE AND SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE are the titles of the Masters of men.
Far from the future, formless yet forming,came they as teachers for the children of men.Live they forever, yet not of the living,bound not to life and yet free from death.
Rule they forever with infinite wisdom,bound yet not bound to the dark Halls of Death.Life they have in them, yet life that is not life, free from all are the Lords of the ALL.
Forth from them came forth the Logos,instruments they of the power o'er all.Vast is their countenance,yet hidden in smallness, formed by a forming, known yet unknown.
THREE holds the key of all hidden magic,creator he of the halls of the Dead;sending forth power, shrouding with darkness,binding the souls of the children of men;sending the darkness, binding the soul force; director of negative to the children of men.
FOUR is he who looses the power.Lord, he, of Life to the children of men.Light is his body, flame is his countenance; freer of souls to the children of men.
FIVE is the master, the Lord of all magic - Key to The Word that resounds among men.
SIX is the Lord of Light, the hidden pathway, path of the souls of the children of men.
SEVEN is he who is Lord of the vastness, master of Space and the key of the Times.
EIGHT is he who orders the progress; weighs and balances the journey of men.
NINE is the father, vast he of countenance, forming and changing from out of the formless.
Meditate on the symbols I give thee. Keys are they, though hidden from men.
Reach ever upward, O Soul of the morning.Turn thy thoughts upward to Light and to Life.Find in the keys of the numbers I bring thee, light on the pathway from life unto life.
Seek ye with wisdom.Turn thy thoughts inward. Close not thy mind to the flower of Light.
Place in thy body a thought-formed picture. Think of the numbers that lead thee to Life.
Clear is the pathway to he who has wisdom. Open the door to the Kingdom of Light.
Pour forth thy flame as a Sun of the morning. Shut out the darkness and live in the day.
Take thee, O man! As part of thy being,the Seven who are but are not as they seem.Opened, O man! Have I my wisdom. Follow the path in the way I have led.
Masters of Wisdom,SUN of the MORNING LIGHT and LIFE to the children of men.
===The Space Born===
 List ye, O man, to the voice of wisdom, list to the voice of THOTH, the Atlantean.
Freely I give to thee of my wisdom,gathered from the time and space of this cycle;master of mysteries, SUN of the morning,living forever, a child of the LIGHT, shining with brightness, star of the morning,
THOTH the teacher of men, is of ALL.Long time ago, I in my childhood,lay 'neath the stars on long-buried ATLANTIS, dreaming of mysteries far above men.
Then in my heart grew there a great longing toconquer the pathway that led to the stars.Year after year, I sought after wisdom,seeking new knowledge, following the way,until at last my SOUL, in great travail, broke from its bondage and bounded away.
Free was I from the bondage of earth-men.Free from the body, I flashed through the night.Unlocked at last for me was the star-space.Free was I from the bondage of night.Now to the end of space sought I wisdom, far beyond knowledge of finite man.
Far into space, my SOUL traveled freelyinto infinity's circle of light.Strange, beyond knowledge, were some of the planets, great and gigantic, beyond dreams of men.
Yet found I Law, in all of its beauty, working through and among them as here among men.
Flashed forth my soul through infinity's beauty,far through space I flew with my thoughts.
Rested I there on a planet of beauty. Strains of harmony filled all the air.
Shapes there were, moving in Order,great and majestic as stars in the night;mounting in harmony, ordered equilibrium, symbols of the Cosmic, like unto Law.
Many the stars I passed in my journey,many the races of men on their worlds;some reaching high as stars of the morning, some falling low in the blackness of night.
Each and all of them struggling upward,gaining the heights and plumbing the depths,moving at times in realms of brightness,living through darkness, gaining the Light.
Know, O man, that Light is thine heritage.Know that darkness is only a veil.Sealed in thine heart is brightness eternal,waiting the moment of freedom to conquer, waiting to rend the veil of the night.
Some I found who had conquered the ether.Free of space were they while yet they were men.Using the force that is the foundation of ALL things,far in space constructed they a planet,drawn by the force that flows through the ALL;condensing, coalescing the ether into forms,that grew as they willed.
Outstripping in science, they, all of the races,mighty in wisdom, sons of the stars.Long time I paused, watching their wisdom.Saw them create from out of the ether citiesgigantic of rose and gold.Formed forth from the primal element,base of all matter, the ether far flung.
Far in the past, they had conquered the ether,freed themselves from the bondage of toil;formed in heir mind only a picture and swiftly created, it grew.
Forth then, my soul sped, throughout the Cosmos,seeing ever, new things and old;learning that man is truly space-born,a Sun of the Sun, a child of the stars.
Know ye, O man, whatever from ye inhabit,surely it is one with the stars.
Thy bodies are nothing but planets revolvingaround their central suns.
When ye have gained the light of all wisdom,free shall ye be to shine in the ether --one of the Suns that light outer darkness -- one of the space-born grown into Light.
Just as the stars in time lose their brilliance,light passing from them in to the great source,so, O man, the soul passes onward, leaving behind the darkness of night.
Formed forth ye, from the primal ether,filled with the brilliance thatflows from the source,bound by the ether coalesced around, yet ever it flames until at last it is free.
Lift up your flame from out of the darkness, fly from the night and ye shall be free.
Traveled I through the space-time,knowing my soul at last was set free,knowing that now might I pursue wisdom.Until at last, I passed to a plane,hidden from knowledge,known not to wisdom, extension beyond all that we know.
Now, O man, when I had this knowing,happy my soul grew,for now I was free.Listen, ye space-born,list to my wisdom:know ye not that ye, too, will be free.
List ye again, O man, to my wisdom,that hearing, ye too, might live and be free.Not of the earth are ye -- earthy, but child of the Infinite Cosmic Light.
Know ye not, O man, of your heritage?Know ye not ye are truly the Light?Sun of the Great Sun, when ye gain wisdom, truly aware of your kinship with Light.
Now, to ye, I give knowledge,freedom to walk in the path I have trod,showing ye truly how by my striving, I trod the path that leads to the stars.
Hark ye, O man, and know of thy bondage,know how to free thyself from the toils.Out of the darkness shall ye rise upward, one with the Light and one with the stars.
Follow ye ever the path of wisdom.Only by this can ye rise from below.Ever man's destiny leads him onwardinto the Curves of Infinity's ALL.
Know ye, O man, that all space is ordered.Only by Order are ye One with the ALL.Order and balance are the Law of the Cosmos. Follow and ye shall be One with the ALL.
He who would follow the pathway of wisdom,open must be to the flower of life,extending his consciousness out of the darkness, flowing through time and space in the ALL.
Deep in the silence,first ye must linger until at last yeare free from desire, free from the longing to speak in the silence.
Conquer by silence, the bondage of words.Abstaining from eating until we have conquered desire for food, that is bondage of soul.
Then lie ye down in the darkness.Close ye your eyes from the rays of the Light.Centre thy soul-force in the place of thine consciousness, shaking it free from the bonds of the night.
Place in thy mind-place the image thou desireth.Picture the place thou desireth to see.Vibrate back and forth with thy power.Loosen the soul from out of its night.Fiercely must thou shake with all of thy power until at last thy soul shall be free.
Mighty beyond words is the flame of the Cosmic,hanging in planes, unknown to man;mighty and balanced, moving in Order, music of harmonies, far beyond man.
Speaking with music, singing with colour,flame from the beginning of Eternity's ALL.Spark of the flame art thou, O my children,burning with colour and living with music. List to the voice and thou shalt be free.
Consciousness free is fused with the Cosmic,One with the Order and Low of the ALL.Knew ye not man, that out of the darkness, Light shall flame forth, a symbol of ALL.
Pray ye this prayer for attaining or wisdom. Pray for the coming of Light to the ALL.
Mighty SPIRIT of LIGHT that shines through theCosmos, draw my flame closer in harmony to thee.Lift up my fire from out of the darkness,magnet of fire that is One with the ALL.Lift up my soul, thou might and potent.Child of the Light, turn not away.Draw me in power to melt in thy furnace;One with all things and all thingsin One, fire of the life-strain and One with the Brain.
When ye have freed thy soul from its bondage,know that for ye the darkness is gone.Ever through space ye may seek wisdom, bound not be fetters forged in the flesh.
Onward and upward into the morning, free flash,O Soul, to the realms of Light. Move thou in Order,move thou in Harmony, freely shalt move with the Children of Light.
Seek ye and know ye, my KEY of Wisdom.Thus, O man, ye shall surely be free.
===The Dweller of Unal===
 Oft dream I of buried Atlantis, 
 lost in the ages that have passed into night. 
 Aeon on aeon thou existed in beauty, a light shining through the darkness of night.
Mighty in power, ruling the earth-born, Lord of the Earth in Atlantis' day.
King of the nations, master of wisdom
,LIGHT through SUNTAL,Keeper of the way,dwelt in his TEMPLE,the MASTER of UNAL, LIGHT of the Earth in Atlantis' day.
Master, HE, from a cycle beyond us, living in bodies as one among men.
Not as the earth-born,HE from beyond us, SUN of a cycle, advanced beyond men.
Know ye, O man, that HORLET the Master, was never one with the children of men.
Far in the past time when Atlantis first grew as a power,appeared there one with the KEY of WISDOM,showing the way of LIGHT to all.
Showed he to all men the path of attainment,way of the Light that flows among men.Mastering darkness, leading the MAN-SOUL, upward to heights that were One with the Light.
Divided the Kingdoms, HE into sections.
Ten were they, ruled by children of men.
Upon another, built HE a TEMPLE, built but not by the children of men.
Out of the ETHER called HE its substance,moulded and formed by the power of YTOLAN into the forms HE built with His mind.
Mile upon mile it covered the island, space upon space it grew in its might.
Black, yet not black, but dark like the space-time, deep in its heart the ESSENCE of LIGHT.
Swiftly the TEMPLE grew into being,moulded and shaped by the WORD of the DWELLER, called from the formless into a form.
Builded HE then, within it, great chambers,filled them with forms called forth from the ETHER, filled them with wisdom called forth by His mind.
Formless was HE within his TEMPLE, yet was HE formed in the image of men.
Dwelling among them yet not of them,strange and far different was HE from the children of men.
Chose HE then from among the people, THREE who became his gateway.
Choose HE the THREE from the Highest to become his links with Atlantis.
Messengers they, who carried his council,to the kings of the children of men.
Brought HE forth others and taught them wisdom;teachers, they, to the children of men.Placed HE them on the island of UNDAL to stand as teachers of LIGHT to men.
Each of those who were thus chosen, taught must he be for years five and ten.
Only thus could he have understanding to bring LIGHT to the children of men.
Thus there came into being the Temple, a dwelling place for the Master of men.
I, THOTH, have ever sought wisdom, searching in darkness and searching in Light.
Long in my youth I traveled the pathway, seeking ever new knowledge to gain.
Until after much striving, one of the THREE,to me brought the LIGHT.
Brought HE to me the commands of the DWELLER,called me from the darkness into the LIGHT.Brought HE me, before the DWELLER, deep in the Temple before the great FIRE.
There on the great throne, beheld I,the DWELLER, clothed with the LIGHTand flashing with fire.Down I knelt before that great wisdom, feeling the LIGHT flowing through me in waves.
Heard I then the voice of the DWELLER: "O darkness, come into the Light.
Long have ye sought the pathway to LIGHT.
Each soul on earth that loosens its fetters, shall soon be made free from the bondage of night.
Forth from the darkness have ye arisen, closer approached the Light of your goal.
Here ye shall dwell as one of my children,keeper of records gathered by wisdom, instrument thou of the LIGHT from beyond.
Ready by thou made to do what is needed,preserver of wisdom through the ages of darkness,that shall come fast on the children of men.
Live thee here and drink of all wisdom.
Secrets and mysteries unto thee shall unveil."
Then answered I, the MASTER OF CYCLES, saying:"O Light, that descended to men,give thou to me of thy wisdom thatI might be a teacher of men. Give thou of thy LIGHT that I may be free."
Spoke then to me again, the MASTER:"Age after age shall ye live throughyour wisdom, Aye, when o'er Atlantis the ocean waves roll, holding the Light, though hidden in darkness, ready to come when e'er thou shalt call.
Go thee now and learn greater wisdom. Grow thou through LIGHT to Infinity's ALL."
Long then dwelt I in the Temple of the DWELLER until at last I was One with the LIGHT.
Followed I then the path to the star planes, followed I then the pathway to LIGHT.
Deep into Earth's heart I followed the pathway, learning the secrets, below as above; learning the pathway to the HALLS of AMENTI; learning the LAW that balances the world.
To Earth's hidden chambers pierced I by my wisdom, deep through the Earth's crust, into the pathway, hidden for ages from the children of men.
Unveiled before me, ever more wisdom until I reached a new knowledge: found that all is part of an ALL, great and yet greater than all that we know.
Searched I Infinity's heart through all the ages.
Deep and yet deeper, more mysteries I found.
Now, as I look back through the ages, know I that wisdom is boundless, ever grown greater throughout the ages, One with Infinity's greater than all.
Light there was in ancient ATLANTIS. Yet, darkness, too, was hidden in all.
Fell from the Light into the darkness, some who had risen to heights among men.
Proud they became because of their knowledge,proud were they of their place among men.Deep delved they into the forbidden, opened the gateway that led to below.
Sought they to gain ever more knowledge but seeking to bring it up from below.
He who descends below must have balance, else he is bound by lack of our Light.
Opened, they then,by their knowledge, pathways forbidden to man.
But, in His Temple, all-seeing, the DWELLER,lay in his AGWANTI, while through Atlantis, His soul roamed free.
Saw HE the Atlanteans, by their magic,opening the gateway that would bring to Earth a great woe.
Fast fled His soul then, back to His body.Up HE arose from His AGWANTI.Called HE the Three mighty messengers.Gave the commands that shattered the world.Deep 'neath Earth's crust to the HALLS of AMENTI,swiftly descended the DWELLER.Called HE then on the powers the Seven Lords wielded; changed the Earth's balance.
Down sank Atlantis beneath the dark waves.Shattered the gateway that had been opened;shattered the doorway that led down below.All of the islands were shattered except UNAL, and part of the island of the sons of the DWELLER.
Preserved HE them to be the teachers,Lights on the path for those to come after,Lights for the lesser children of men.
Called HE then, I THOTH, before him,gave me commands for all I should do, saying; "Take thou, O THOTH, all of your wisdom.
Take all your records, Take all your magic.Go thou forth as a teacher of men.Go thou forth reserving the recordsuntil in time LIGHT grows among men.LIGHT shalt thou be all through the ages,hidden yet found by enlightened men.Over all Earth, give WE ye power, free thou to give or take it away.
Gather thou now the sons of Atlantis.Take them and flee to the people of the rock caves.Fly to the land of the Children of KHEM."Then gathered I the sons of Atlantis.Into the spaceship I brought all my records,brought the records of sunken Atlantis.Gathered I all of my powers, instruments many of mighty magic.
Up then we rose on wings of the morning.High we arose above the Temple,leaving behind the Three and DWELLER,deep in the HALLS 'neath the Temple, closing the pathway to the LORDS of the Cycles.
Yet ever to him who has knowing,open shall be the path to AMENTI.Fast fled we then on the wings of the morning,fled to the land of the children of KHEM.There by my power, I conquered and ruled them.
Raised I to LIGHT,the children of KHEM.Deep 'neath the rocks,I buried my spaceship, waiting the time when man might be free.
Over the spaceship,erected a marker in the formof a lion yet like unto man.There 'neath the image rests yet my spaceship, forth to be brought when need shall arise.
Know ye, O man, that far in the future,invaders shall come from out of the deep.Then awake, ye who have wisdom.Bring forth my ship and conquer with ease.Deep 'neath the image lies my secret. Search and find in the pyramid I built.
Each to the other is the Keystone;each the gateway that leads into LIFE.Follow the KEY I leave behind me.Seek and the doorway to LIFE shall be thine.Seek thou in my pyramid, deep in the passage that ends in a wall.
Use thou the KEY of the SEVEN,and open to thee the pathway will fall.Now unto thee I have given my wisdom. Now unto thee I have given my way.
Follow the pathway.Solve thou my secrets.Unto thee I have shown the way.
===The Key of Magic===
 Hark ye, O man, to the wisdom of magic. 
 Hark the knowledge of powers forgotten.
 Long, ago in the days of the first man,
 warfare began between darkness and light.
 Man, then as now,
 were filled with both darkness and light;
 and while in some darkness hell sway,in other light filled the soul.
Aye, age old in this warfare,the eternal struggle between darkness and light.Fiercely is it fought all through the ages,using strange powers hidden to man.
Adepts has there been filled with the blackness,struggling always against the light;but others there are who, filled with brightness,have ever conquered the darkness of night.Where e'er ye may be in all ages and plane,surely, ye shall know of the battle with night.Long ages ago,The SUNS of the Morningdescending, found the world filled with night,there in that past, begun the struggle,the age old Battle Darkness & Light.
Many in the time were so filled with darknessthat only feebly flamed the light from the night.
Some they were, masters of darkness, who soughtto fill all with their darkness:Sought to draw others into their night.Fiercely withstood they, the masters of brightness:fiercely fought they from the darkness of nightSought ever to tighten the fetters,the chains that bind men to the darkness of night.Used they always the dark magic,brought into men by the power of darkness.magic that enshrouded man's soul with darkness.
Banded together as in order,BROTHERS OF DARKNESS,they through the ages,antagonist they to the children of men.Walked they always secret and hidden,found, yet not found by the children of man.
Forever, they walked and worked in darkness,hiding from the light in the darkness of night.Silently, secretly use they their power,enslaving and binding the soul of men.
Unseen they come, and unseen they go.Man, in his ignorance calls THEM from below.
Dark is the way of the DARK BROTHERS travel,dark of the darkness not of the night,traveling o'er Earththey walk through man's dreams.Power they have gainedfrom the darkness around themto call other dwellers from out of their plane,in ways that are dark and unseen by man.Into man's mind-space reach the DARK BROTHERS.
Around it, they close the veil of their night.There through it's lifetimethat soul dwells in bondage,bound by the fetters of the VEIL of the night.Mighty are they in the forbidden knowledgeforbidden because it is one with the night.
Hark ye O old man and list to my warning:be ye free from the bondage of night.Surrender not your soul to the BROTHERS OF DARKNESS.Keep thy face ever turned towards the Light.Know ye not, O man, that your sorrow,only has come through the Veil of the night.Aye man, heed ye my warning:strive ever upward,turn your soul toward the LIGHT.The BROTHERS OF DARKNESS seek for their brothersthose who traveled the pathway of LIGHT.For well know they that those who have traveledfar towards the Sun in their pathway of LIGHThave great and yet greater powerto bind with darkness the children of LIGHT.
List ye, O man, to he who comes to you.But weigh in the balance if his words be of LIGHT.For many there are who walk in DARK BRIGHTNESSand yet are not the children of LIGHT.
Easy it is to follow their pathway,easy to follow the path that they lead.But yet O man, heed ye my warning:Light comes only to him who strives.Hard is the pathway that leads to the WISDOM,hard is the pathway that leads to the LIGHT.Many shall ye find, the stones in your pathway:many the mountains to climb toward the LIGHT.
Yet know ye, O man, to him that o'ercometh,free will he be of the pathway of Light.For ye know, O man,in the END light must conquerand darkness and night be banished from Light.
Listen, O man, and heed ye this wisdom;even as darkness, so is the LIGHT.
When darkness is banished and all Veils are rended,out there shall flash from the darkness, the LIGHT.
Even as exist among men the DARK BROTHERS,so there exists the BROTHERS OF LIGHT.Antagonists they of the BROTHERS OF DARKNESS,seeking to free men from the night.Powers have they, mighty and potent.Knowing the LAW, the planets obey.Work they ever in harmony and order,freeing the man-soul from its bondage of night.
Secret and hidden, walk they also.Known not are they to the children of men.Ever have THEY fought the DARK BROTHERS,conquered and conquering time without end.Yet always LIGHT shall in the end be master,driving away the darkness of night.
Aye, man, know ye this knowing:always beside thee walk the Children of Light.
Masters they of the SUN power,ever unseen yet the guardians of men.Open to all is their pathway,open to he who will walk in the LIGHT.Free are THEY of DARK AMENTI,free of the HALLS, where LIFE reigns supreme.
SUNS are they and LORDS of the morning,Children of Light to shine among men.Like man are they and yet are unlike,Never divided were they in the past.
ONE have they been in ONENESS eternal,throughout all space since the beginning of time.Up did they come in Oneness with the ALL ONE,up from the first-space, formed and unformed.
Given to man have they secretsthat shall guard and protect him from all harm.He who would travel the path of the master,free must he be from the bondage of night.Conquer must he the formless and shapeless,conquer must he the phantom of fear.
Knowing, must he gain of all of the secrets,travel the pathway that leads through the darkness,yet ever before him keep the light of his goal.Obstacles great shall he meet in the pathway,yet press on to the LIGHT of the SUN.
Hear ye, O Man, the SUN is the symbolof the LIGHT that shines at the end of thy road.Now to thee give I the secrets:now to meet the dark power,meet and conquer the fear from the night.Only by knowing can ye conquer,Only be knowing can ye have LIGHT.
Now I give unto thee the knowledge,known to the MASTERS,the knowing that conquers all the dark fears.Use this, the wisdom I give thee.MASTER thou shalt be of THE BROTHERS OF NIGHT.
When unto thee comes a feeling,drawing thee nearer to the darker gate,examine thine heart and find if the feelingthou hast has come from within.If thou shalt find the darkness thine own thoughts,banish them forth from the place in thy mind. 
Send through thy body a wave of vibration,irregular first and regular second,repeating time after time until free.Start the WAVE FORCE in thy BRAIN CENTER.Direct it in waves from thine head to thy foot.
But if thou findest thine heart is not darkened,be sure that a force is directed to thee.Only by knowing can thou overcome it.Only be wisdom can thou hope to be free.Knowledge brings wisdom and wisdom is power.Attain and ye shall have power o'er all.
Seek ye first a place bound by darkness.Place ye a circle around about thee.Stand erect in the midst of the circle.Use thou this formula, and you shalt be free.Raise thou thine hands to the dark space above thee. Close thou thine eyes and draw in the LIGHT. 
Call to the SPIRIT OF LIGHT through the Space-Time,using these words and thou shalt be free:"Fill thou my body, O SPIRIT OF LIfe,fill thou my body with SPIRIT OF LIGHT.Come from the FLOWERthat shines through the darkness.Come from the HALLS where the Seven Lords rule. 
Name them by name, I, the Seven:THREE, FOUR, FIVE,and SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT--Nine. 
By their names I call them to aid me,free me and save me from the darkness of night:UNTANAS, QUERTAS, CHIETAL,and GOYANA, HUERTAL, SEMVETA--ARDAL.By their names I implore thee,free me from darknessand fill me with LIGHT
Know ye, O man, that when ye have done this,ye shall be free from the fetters that bind ye,cast off the bondage of the brothers of night.
See ye not that the names have the powerto free by vibration the fetters that bind?Use them at need to free thou thine brotherso that he, too, may come forth from the night.
Thou, O man, art thy brother's helper.Let him not lie in the bondage of night.
Now unto thee, give I my magic.Take it and dwell on the pathway of LIGHT.
LIGHT unto thee, LIFE unto thee,SUN may thou be on the cycle above.
===The Seven Lords===
 Hark ye O man, and list to my Voice.
 Open thy mind-space and drink of my wisdom.
 Dark is the pathway of LIFE that ye travel.
 Many the pitfalls that lie in thy way.
 Seek ye ever to gain greater wisdom.Attain and it shall be light on thy way.
Open thy SOUL, O man, to the Cosmicand let it flow in as one with thy SOUL.LIGHT is eternal and darkness is fleeting.Seek ye ever, O man, for the LIGHT.Know ye that ever as Light fills thy being,darkness for thee shall soon disappear.
Open thy souls scammmm!!!!!!!!!!!! to the BROTHERS OF BRIGHTNESS.Let them enter and fill thee with LIGHT.Lift up thine eyes to the LIGHT of the Cosmos.Keep thou ever thy face to the goal.Only by gaining the light of all wisdom,art thou one with the Infinite goal.Seek ye ever the Oness eternal.Seek ever the Light into One.
Hear ye, O man, list to my Voicesinging the song of Light and of Life.throughout all space, Light is prevalent,encompassing ALL with its banners if flames.Seek ye forever in the veil of the darkness,somewhere ye shall surely find Light.Hidden and buried, lost to man's knowledge,deep in the finite the Infinite exists.Lost, but existing,flowing through all things,living in ALL is the INFINITE BRAIN.
In all space, there is only ONE wisdom.Through seeming decided, it is ONE in the ONE.All that exists comes forth from the LIGHT,and the LIGHT comes forth from the ALL.
Everything created is based upon ORDER:LAW rules the space where the INFINITE dwells.Forth from equilibrium came the great cycles,moving in harmony toward Infinity's end.
Know ye, O man, that far in the space-time,INFINITY itself shall pass into change.Hear ye and list to the Voice of Wisdom:Know that ALL is of ALL evermore.Know that through time thou may pursue wisdomand find ever more light on the way.Know that through time thou may pursue wisdomand find ever more light on the way.Aye, thou shall find that ever receding,thy goal shall elude thee from day unto day.
Long time ago, in the HALLS OF AMENTI,I, Thoth, stood before the LORDS of the cycles.Mighty, THEY in their aspects of power;mighty, THEY in the wisdom unveiled.
Led by the Dweller, first did I see them.But afterwards free was I of their presence,free to enter their conclave at will.Oft did I journey down the dark pathwayunto the HALL where the LIGHT ever glows.
Learned I of the Masters of cycles,wisdom brought from the cycles above.Manifest THEY in this cycleas guides of man to the knowledge of ALL.Seven are they, mighty in power,speaking these words through me to men.Time after time, stood I before themlistening to words that came not with sound.
Once said THEY unto me:O man, wouldst thou gain wisdom?Seek for it in the heart of the flame.Wouldst thou gain knowledge of power?Seek ye it in the heart of the flame.Wouldst be one with the heart of the flame?Seek then within thine own hidden flame.
Many the times spoke THEY to me,teaching me wisdom not of the world;showing me ever new paths to brightness;teaching me wisdom brought from above.Giving knowledge of operation,learning of LAW, the order of ALL.
Spoke to me again, the Seven, saying:>From far beyond time are WE, come, O man,Traveled WE from beyond SPACE-TIME,aye, from the place of Infinity's end.When ye and all of thy brethren were formless,formed forth were WE from the order of ALL.Not as men are WE,though once WE, too, were as men.Out of the Great Void were WE formed forthin order by LAW.For know ye that which is formed truly is formless, having form only to thine eyes.
And again, unto me spoke the Seven, saying:Child of the LIGHT, O THOTH, art thou,free to travel the bright path upwarduntil at last ALL ONES become ONE
Forth were WE formed after our order:THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT--NINE.Know ye that these are the numbers of cyclesthat WE descend from unto man.Each having here a duty to fulfill;each having here a force to control.
Yet are we ONE with the SOUL of our cycle.Yet are WE, too, seeking a goal.Far beyond man's conception,Infinity extends into a greater than ALL.There, in a time that is yet not a time,we shall ALL become ONEwith a greater than ALL.Time and space are moving in circles.Know ye their law, and ye too, shall be free.Aye, free shall ye be to move through the cycles--pass the guardians that dwell at the door.
Then to me spoke HE of NINE saying:Aeons and aeons have I existed,knowing not LIFE and tasting not death.For know ye. O man, that far in the future,life and death shall be one with the ALL.
Each so perfected by balancing the otherthat neither exists in the Oneness of ALL.In men of this cycle, the life force is rampant,but life in its growth becomes one with them ALL.
Here, I manifest in this your cycle,but yet am I there in your future of time.Yet to me, time exists not,for in my world time exists not,for formless are WE.Life have WE not but yet have existence,fuller and greater and freer than thee.
Man is a flame bound to a mountain,but WE in our cycle shall ever be free.Know ye, O man, that when ye have progressedinto the cycle that lengthen above,life itself will pass to the darknessand only the essence of Soul shall remain.
Then to me spoke the LORD of the EIGHT saying:All that ye know is but part of little.Not as yet have ye touched on the Great.Far out in space where LIGHT beings supreme,came I into the LIGHT.Formed was I also but not as ye are.
Body of Light was my formless form formed.Know I not LIFE and know I not DEATH,yet master am I of all that exists.Seek ye to find the path through the barriers.Travel the road that leads to the LIGHT.
Spoke again to me the NINE saying:Seek ye to find the path to beyond.Not impossible is it to growto a consciousness above.For when TWO have become ONEand ONE has become the ALL,know ye the barrier has lifted,and ye are made free of the road.Grow thou from form to the formless.Free may thou be of the road.
Thus, through ages I listened,learning the way to the ALL.Now Lift I my thoughts to the ALL-THING.List ye and hear when it calls.
O LIGHT, all prevading,One with ALL and ALL with ONE,flow thou to me through the channel.Enter thou so that I may be free.Make me One with the ALL-SOUL,shining from the blackness of night.Free let me be of all space-time,free from the Veil of the night.I, a child of LIGHT, command:Free from the darkness to be.
Formless am I to the Light-Soul,formless yet shining with light.Know I the bonds of the darknessmust shatter and fall before light.
Now give I this wisdom.Free may ye be, O man,living in light and in brightness.Turn not they face from the Light.Thy soul dwells in realms of brightness.Ye are a child of the Light.
Turn thy thoughts inward not outward.Find thou the Light-Soul within.Know that thou art the MASTER.All else is brought from within.Grow thou to realms of brightness.Hold thou thy thought on the Light.Know thou art one with the Cosmos,a flame and a Child of the Light.
Now to thee gave I warning:Let not the thought turn away.Know that the brightnessflows through thy body for aye.Turn not to the DARK-BROTHERSthat come from the BROTHERS OF BLACK.But keep thine eyes ever lifted,thy soul in tune with the Light.
Take ye this wisdom and heed it.List to my Voice and obey.Follow the pathway to brightness,and thou shall be ONE with the way.
===The Key of Mysteries===
 Unto thee, O man,
 have I given my knowledge.
 Unto thee have I given of Light.
 Hear ye now and receive my wisdombrought from space planes above and beyond.
Not as man am Ifor free have I become of dimensions and planes.In each, take I on a new body.In each, I change in my form.Know I now that the formless is all there is of form.
Great is the wisdom of the Seven.Mighty are THEY from beyond.Manifest THEY through their power,filled by force from beyond.
Hear ye these words of wisdom.Hear ye and make them thine own.Find in them the formless.Mystery is but hidden knowledge.Know and ye shall unveil.Find the deep buried wisdomand be master of darkness and Light.
Deep are the mysteries around thee,hidden the secrets of Old.Search through the KEYS of my WISDOM.Surely shall ye find the way.The gateway to power is secret,but he who attains shall receive.Look to the LIGHT! O my brother.Open and ye shall receive.Press on through the valley of darkness.Overcome the dweller of night.Keep ever thine eyes of the LIGHT-PLANE,and thou shalt be One with the LIGHT.
Man is in process of changingto forms that are not of this world.Grows he is time to the formless,a plane on the cycle above.Know ye, ye must become formless before ye are with the LIGHT,
List ye, O man, to my voice,telling of pathways to Light,showing the way of attainmentwhen ye shall be One with the Light.
Search ye the mysteries of Earth's heart.Learn of the LAW that exists,holding the stars in their balanceby the force of the primordial mist.Seek ye the flame of the EARTH'S LIFE.Bathe in the galre of its flame.Follow the three-cornered pathwayuntil thou, too, art a flame.
Speak thou in words without voiceto those who dwell down below.Enter the blue-litten templeand bathe in the fire of all life.
Know, O man, thou art complex,a being of earth and of fire.Let thy flame shine out brightly.Be thou only the fire.
Wisdom is hidden in darkness.When lit by the flame of the Soul,find thou the wisdom and be LIGHT-BORN,a Sun of the Light without form.Seek thee ever more wisdom.Find it in the heart of the flame.Know that only by strivingand Light pour into thy brain.Now have I spoken with wisdom.List to my Voice and obey.Tear open the Veils of the darkness.Shine a LIGHT on the WAY.
Speak I of Ancient Atlantis,speak of the daysof the Kingdom of Shadows,speak of the comingof the children of shadows.Out of the great deep were they calledby the wisdom of earth-men,called for the purpose of gaining great power.
Far in the past before Atlantis existed,men there were who delved into darkness,using dark magic, calling up beingsfrom the great deep below us.Forth came they into this cycle.Formless were they of another vibration,existing unseen by the children of earth-men.Only through blood could they have formed being.Only through man could they live in the world.
In ages past were they conquered by Masters,driven below to the place whence they came.But some there were who remained,hidden in spaces and planes unknown to man.Lived they in Atlantis as shadows,but at times they appeared among men.Aye, when the blood was offered,for they came they to dwell among men.
In the form of man they amongst us,but only to sight were they as are men.Serpent-headed when the glamour was liftedbut appearing to man as men among men.Crept they into the Councils,taking forms that were like unto men.Slaying by their artsthe chiefs of the kingdoms,taking their form and ruling o'er man.Only by magic could they be discovered.Only by sound could their faces be seen.Sought they from the Kingdom of shadowsto destroy man and rule in his place.
But, know ye, the Masters were mighty in magic,able to lift the Veil from the face of the serpent,able to send him back to his place.Came they to man and taught him the secret,the WORD that only a man can pronounce.Swift then they lifted the Veil from the serpentand cast him forth from the place among men.
Yet, beware, the serpent still livethin a place that is open at times to the world.Unseen they walk among theein places where the rites have been said.Again as time passes onwardshall they take the semblance of men.
Called may they be by the masterwho knows the white or the black,but only the white master may controland bind them while in the flesh.
Seek not the kingdom of shadows,for evil will surely appear.For only the master of brightness shall conquer the shadow of fear.
Know ye, O my brother,that fear is an obstacle great.Be master of all in the brightness,the shadow will soon disappear.Hear ye and heed my wisdom,the voice of LIGHT is clear.Seek not the valley of shadow,and LIGHT will only appear.
List ye, O man,to the depth of my wisdom.Speak I of knowledge hidden from man.Far have I beenon my journey through SPACE-TIME,even to the end of space of this cycle.Aye, glimpsed the HOUNDS of the Barrier,lying in wait for he who would pass them.In that space where time exists not,faintly I sensed the guardians of cycles.Move they only through angles.Free are they not of the curved dimensions.
Strange and terribleare the HOUNDS of the Barrier.Follow they consciousness to the limits of space.Think not to escape by entering your body,for follow they fast the Soul through angles.Only the circle will give ye protection,save from the clawsof the DWELLERS IN ANGLES.
Once, in a time past,I approached the great Barrier,and saw on the shores where time exists not,the formless formsof the HOUNDS of the barrier.Aye, hiding in the midst beyond time I found them;and THEY, scenting me afar off,raised themsleves and gave the great bell crythat could be heard from cycle to cycleand moved through space toward my soul.
Fled I then fast before them,back from time's unthinkable end.But ever after me pursued they,moving in strange angles not known to man.Aye, on the gray shores of TIME-SPACE'S endfound I the HOUNDS of the Barrier,ravening for the Soulwho attempts the beyond.
Fled I through circles back to my body.Fled, and fast after me they followed.Aye, after me the devourers followed,seeking through angles to devour my Soul.
Aye, know ye man,that the Soul who dares the Barriermay be held in bondageby the HOUNDS from beyond time,held till this cycle is completedand left behind when the consciousness leaves.
Entered I my body.Created the circles that know not angles,created the formthat from my form was formed.Made my body into a circleand lost the pursuers in the circles of time.But, even yet, when free from my body,cautious ever must I benot to move through angles,else my soul may never be free.
Know ye, the HOUNDS of the Barriermove only through anglesand never through curves of space.Only by moving through curvescan ye escape them,for in angles they will pursue thee.O man, heed ye my warning;Seek not to break openthe gate to beyond.Few there arewho have succeeded in passing the Barrierto the greater LIGHT that shines beyond.For know ye, ever the dwellers,seek such Souls to hold in their thrall.
Listen, O man, and heed ye my warning;seek ye to move not in angles but curves,And if while free from thy body,though hearest the sound like the bay of a houndringing clear and bell-like through thy being,flee back to thy body through circles,penetrate not the midst mist before.
When thou hath entered the form thou hast dwelt in,use thou the cross and the circle combined.Open thy mouth and use thou thy Voice.Utter the WORD and thou shalt be free.Only the one who of LIGHT has the fullestcan hope to pass by the guards of the way.And then must he movethrough strange curves and anglesthat are formed in direction not know to man.
List ye, O man, and heed ye my warning:attempt not to pass the guards on the way.Rather should ye seek to gain of thine own Lightand make thyself ready to pass on the way.
LIGHT is thine ultimate end, O my brother.Seek and find ever the Light on the way.
===The Key of Freedom of Space===
 List ye, O man, hear ye my voice,
 teaching of Wisdom and Light in this cycle;
 teaching ye how to banish the darkness,teaching ye how to bring Light in thy life.
Seek ye, O man, to find the great pathwaythat leads to eternal LIFE as a SUN.Draw ye away from the veil of the darkness.Seek to become a Light in the world.Make of thyself a vessel for Light,a focus for the Sun of this space.
Lift thou thine eyes to the Cosmos.Lift thou thine eyes to the Light.Speak in the words of the Dweller,the chant that calls down the Light.Sing thou the song of freedom.Sing thou the song of the Soul.Create the high vibrationthat will make thee One with the Whole.Blend all thyself with the Cosmos.Grow into ONE with the Light.Be thou a channel of order,a pathway of LAW to the world.
Thy LIGHT, O man, is the great LIGHT,shining through the shadow of flesh.Free must thou rise from the darknessbefore thou art One with the LIGHT.
Shadows of darkness surround thee.Life fills thee with its flow.But know, O man, thou must ariseand forth thy body gofar to the planes that surround theeand yet are One with thee, too.
Look all around thee, O man.See thine own light reflected.Aye, even in the darkness around thee,thine own Light pours forth through the veil.
Seek thou for wisdom always.Let not thine body betray.Keep in the path of the Light wave.Shun thou the darkened way.Know thee that wisdom is lasting.Existing since the ALL-SOUL began,creating harmony from by the Law that exists in the WAY.
List ye, o man, to the teachings of wisdom.List to the voice that speaks of the past-time.Aye, I shall tell thee knowledge forgotten,tell ye of wisdom hidden in past-time,lost in the midst of darkness around me.
Know ye, man,ye are the ultimate of all things.Only the knowledge of this is forgotten,lost when man was cast into bondage,bound and fetteredby the chains of the darkness.
Long, long ago, I cast off my body.Wandered I freethrough the vastness of ether,circled the anglesthat hold man in bondage.Know ye, O man, ye are only a spirit.The body is nothing.The Soul is ALL.Let not your body be a fetter.Cast off the darkness and travel in Light.Cast off your body, O man, and be free,truly a Light that is ONE with the Light.
When ye are free from the fetters of darknessand travel in space as the SUN of the LIGHT,then ye shall know that space in not boundlessbut truly bounded by angles and curves.Know ye, O man, that all that existsis only an aspect of greater things yet to come.Matter is fluid and flows like a stream,constantly changing from one thing to another.
When ye are free from the fetters of darknessand travel in space as the SUN of the LIGHT,then ye shall know that space is not boundlessbut truly bounded by angles and curves.Know ye, O man, that all that existsis only an aspect of greater things yet to come.Matter is fluid and flows like a stream,constantly changing from one thing to another.
All through the ages has knowledge existed;never been changed, though buried in darkness;never been lost, though forgotten by man.
Know ye that throughout the spacethat ye dwell inare others as great as your own,interlaced through the heart of your matteryet separate in space of their own.
Once in a time long forgotten,I THOTH, opened the doorway,penetrated into other spacesand learned of the secrets concealed.Deep in the essence of matterare many mysteries concealed.
Nine are the interlocked dimensions,and Nine are the cycles of space.Nine are the diffusions of consciousness,and Nine are the worlds within worlds.Aye, Nine are the Lords of the cyclesthat come from above and below.
Space is filled with concealed ones,for space is divided by time.Seek ye the key to the time-space,and ye shall unlock the gate.Know ye that throughout the time-spaceconsciousness surely exist.Though from our knowledge it is hidden,yet still forever exists.
The key to worlds within theeare found only within.For man is the gateway of mysteryand the key that is One with the One.
Seek ye within the circle.Use the WORD I shall give.Open the gateway within thee,and surely thou, too, shall live.Man, ye think that ye liveth,but know it is life within death.For as sure as ye are bound to your body,for you no life exists.Only the Soul is space-free,has life that is really a life.All else is only a bondage,a fetter from which to be free.
Think not that man is earth-born,though come from the earth he may be.Man is light-born spirit.But, without knowing, he can never be free.Darkness surrounds the light-born.Darkness fetters the Soul.Only the one who is seeking may ever hope to be free.
Shadows around thee are fallingdarkness fills all the spaceShine forth, O LIGHT of the man-soul.Fill thou the darkness of space.
Ye are son of the GREAT LIGHTRemember and ye shall be free.Stay not thou in the shadows.Spring forth from the darkness of nightLight, let thy Soul be, O SUN-BORN,fill with glory of Light,Freed from the bonds of the darkness,a Soul that is One with the Light.
Thou art the key to all wisdom.Within thee is all time and space.Live not in bondage to darkness.Free thou, thy Light-form from night.
Great Light that fills all the Cosmos,flow thou fully to man.Make of his body a light-torchthat shall never be quenched among men.
Long in the past, sought I wisdom,knowledge not known to man.Far to the past, I traveledinto the space where time began.Sought I ever knew knowledgeto add to the wisdom I knew.Yet only, I found, did the futurehold the key to the wisdom I thought.
Down, to the HOLES of AMENTII journeyed, the greater knowledge to seek.Ask of thee, LORDS of the CYCLES,they way to the wisdom I sought.Asked the LORDS this question:Where is the source of ALL?Answered, in tones that were mighty,the voice of the LORD of the NINE:Free thou thy soul from thy bodyand come forth with me to the LIGHT.
Forth I came from my body,a glittering flame in the night.Stood I before the LORD,bathed in the fire of LIFE.Seized was I then by a force,great beyond knowledge of man.Cast was I to thee Abyssthrough spaces unknown to man.
Saw I the moldings of Orderfrom the chaos and angles of night.Saw I the LIGHT, spring from Orderand heard the voice of the Light.Saw I the flame of the Abyss,casting forth Order and Light.Saw Order spring out of chaos.Saw Light giving forth Life.
Then heard I the voice.Hear thou and understand.The flame is the source of all things,containing all things in potentiality.The Order that sent forth lightis the WORD and from the WORD, COME LIFE and the existence of all.
And again spoke the voice saying:THE LIFE in thee is the WORD.Find thou the LIFE within theeand have powers to use of the WORD.
Long I watched the Light-flame,pouring forth from the Essence of Fire,realizing that LIFE but Orderand that man is one with the fire.
Back I came to my bodystood again with the Nine,listened to the voice of the Cycles,vibrate with powers they spoke: Know ye, O Thoth, that LIFEis but thee WORD of the FIRE.The LIFE forth ye seek before theeis but the WORD in the World as a fire.Seek ye the path to the WORD and Powersshall surely be thine.
Then asked I of the Nine:O Lord, show me the path.Give the path to the wisdom. Show me the way to the WORD. Answered, me then,the LORD OF THE NINE:Through ORDER, ye shall find the way.Saw ye that the WORD came from Chaos?Saw ye not that LIGHT came from FIRE?
Look in thy life for this order.Balance and order thy life.Quell all the Chaos of the emotionsand thou shalt have order in LIFE.ORDER brought forth from Chaoswill bring thee the WORD of the SOURCE,will thee the power of CYCLES,and make of thy Soul a force thatfreewill extend through the ages, a perfect SUN from the Source.
Listened I to the voiceand deep thanked the words in my heart.Forever have I sought for orderthat I might draw on the WORD.Know ye that he who attains itmust ever in ORDER be for useof the WORD though this orderhas never and can never be.
Take ye these words, O man.As part of thy life, let them be.Seek thee to conquer this order and One with the WORD thou shalt be.
Put forth thy effort in gaining LIGHTon the pathway of Life.Seek to be One with the SUN/state.Seek to be solely the LIGHT.Hold thou thy thought on the Onenessof Light with the body of man.Know that all is Order from Chaosborn into light.
===The Key of Time===
 List ye, O Man. Take of my wisdom.
 Learn of his deep hidden mysteries of space.
 Learn of the THOUGHT that grew in the abyss,bringing Order and Harmony in space.
Know ye, O man, that all existshas being only because of the LAW.Know ye the LAW and ye shall be free,never be bound by the fetters of night.
Far, through strange spaces, have I journeyedinto the depth of the abyss of time,until in the end all was revealed.Know ye that mystery is only mysterywhen it is knowledge unknown to man.When ye have plumbed the heart of all mystery,knowledge and wisdom will surely be thine.
Seek ye and learn that TIME is the secretwhereby ye may be free of this space.
Long have I, WISDOM, sought wisdom;aye, and shall seek of eternity's endfor know that ever before me recedingshall move the goal I seek to attain.Even the LORDS of the CYCLESknow that not yet have THEY reached the goal,For with all of their wisdom,they know that TRUTH ever grows.
Once, in a past time, I spoke to the Dweller.Asked of the mystery of time and space.Asked him the question that surged in my being,saying: O Master, what is time?
Then to me spoke HE, the Master:Know ye, O Thoth, in the beginningthere and VOID and nothingness,a timeless, spaceless, nothingness.And into the nothingness came a thought,purposeful, all-prevading,and It filled the VOID.There existed no matter, only force,a movement, a vortex, or vibrationof the purposeful thoughtthat filled the VOID.
And I questioned the Master, saying:Was this thought eternal?And answered me the DWELLER, Saying:In the beginning, there was eternal thought,and for thought to be eternal, time must exist.So into the all-prevading thoughtgrew the LAW of TIME.Aye time which exists through all space,floating in a smooth, rhythmic movementthat is eternally in a state of fixation.
Time changes not,but all things change in time.For time is the forcethat holds events separate,each in its own proper place.Time is not in motion,but ye move through timeas your consciousnessmoves from one event to another.
Aye, by time yet exist, all in all,an eternal ONE existence.Know ye that even though in the time ye are separate,yet still are ONE, in all times existent.
Ceased then the voice of the DWELLER,and departed I to ponder on time.For knew I that in these words lay wisdomand a way to explore the mysteries of time.
Oft did I ponder the words of the DWELLER.Then sought I to solve the mystery of time.Found I that time moves through strange angles.Yet only by curves could I hope to attain the keythat would give me access to the time-space.Found I that only by moving upwardand yet again by moving to right-wardcould I be free from the time of the movement.
Forth I came from out of my body,moved in the movements that changed me in time.Strange were the sights I saw in my journeys,many the mysteries that opened to view.Aye, saw I man's beginning,learned from the past that nothing is new.
Seek ye, O man, to learn the pathwaythat leads through the spacesthat are formed forth in time.
Forget not, O man, with all of thy seekingthat Light is the goal ye shall seek to attain.Search ye for the Light on thy pathwayand ever for thee the goal shall endure.
Let not thine heart turn ever to darkness.light let shine Soul be, a Sun on the way.Know ye that eternal brightness,ya shall ever find thy Soul hid in Light,never fettered by bondage or darkness,ever it shines forth a Sun of the Light.
Aye, know, though hidden in darkness,your Soul, a spark of the true flame, exists.Be ye One with the greatest of all Lights.Find at the SOURCE, the END of thy goal.
Light is life, for without the great Lightnothing can ever exist.Know ye, that in all formed matter,the heart of Light always exists.Aye, even though bound in the darkness,inherent Light always exists.
Once I stood in the HALLS OF AMENTIand heard the voice of the LORDS of AMENTI,saying in tones that rang through the silence,words of power, mighty and potent.Chanted they the song of the cycles,the words that open the path to beyond.Aye, I saw the great path openedand looked for the instant into the beyond.Saw I the movements of the cycles,vast as the thought of the SOURCE could convey.
Knew I then even Infinityis moving on to some unthinkable end.Saw I that the Cosmos is Orderand part of a movement that extends to all space,a party of an Order of Orders,constantly moving in a harmony of space.
Saw I the wheeling of cycleslike vast circles across the sky.Knew I then that all that has beingis growing to meet yet another beingin a far-off grouping of space and of time.
Knew I then that in Words are powerto open the planes that are hidden from man.Aye, that even in Words lies hidden the keythat will open above and below.
Hark ye, now man, this word I leave with thee.Use it and ye shall find power in its sound.Say ye the word:"ZIN-URU"and power ye shall find.Yet must ye understand that man is of Lightand Light is of man.
List ye, O man, and hear a mysterystranger than all that lies 'neath the Sun.Know ye, O man, that all spaceis filled by worlds within worlds;aye, one within the other yet separate by Law.
Once in my search for deep buried wisdom,I opened the door that bars THEM from man.Called I from the other planes of being,one who was fairer than the daughters of men.Aye, I called her from out of the spaces,to shine as a Light in the world of men.
Used I the drum of the Sertpent.Wore I the robe of the purple and gold.Placed on my head, I, the crown of Silver.Around me the circle of cinnabar shone.Raised I my arms and cried the invocationthat opens the path to the planes beyond,cried to the LORDS of the SIGNS in their houses:Lords of the two horizons,watchers of the treble gates,stand ye One at the right and One at the leftas the STAR rises to his throneand rules over his sign.Aye, thou dark prince of ARULU,open the gates of the dim, hidden landand release her whom ye keep imprisoned.
Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye,dark Lords and Shining Ones,and by their secret names,names which I know and can pronounce,year ye and obey my will.
Lit I then twith flame my circleand called HERin the space-planes beyond.Daught of Light return from ARULU.
Seven times and seven timeshave I passed through the fire.Food have I not eaten.Water have I not drunk.I call thee from ARULU,from the realms of EKERSHEGAL.I summon thee, lady of Light.
Then before me rose the dark figures;aye, the figures of the Lords of Arulu.Parted they before meand forth came the Lady of Light.
Free was she now from the LORDS of the night,free to live in the Light of the earth Sun,free to live as a child of the Light.
Hear ye and listen, O my children.Magic is knowledge and only is Law.Be not afraid of the power within theefor it follows Law as the stars in the sky.
Know ye that to be without knowledge,wisdom is magic and not of the Law.But know ye that ever ye by your knowledge can approach closer to a place in the Sun.

Follow ye and learn of my magic.Know that all force is thine if thou wilt.Fear not the path that leads thee to knowledge,but rather shun ye the dark road.
Light is thine, O man, for the taking.Cast off the fetters and thou shalt be free.Know ye that they Soul is living in bondagefettered by fears that hold ye in thrall.
Open thy eyes and see the great SUN-LIGHT.Be not afraid for all is thine own.Fear is the LORD of the dark ARULUto he who never faced the dark fear.Aye, know that fear has existence created by those who are bound by their fears.

===The Key to Above and Below===
 Hear ye and list ye, O children of Khem, 
 to the words that I give that shall bring ye to the Light. 
 Ye know, O men, that I knew your fathers, 
 aye, your fathers in a time long ago. 
 Deathless have I been through all the ages, 
 living among ye since your knowledge began. 
 
 Leading ye upward to the Light of the Great Soul 
 have I ever striven, drawing ye from out of the darkness of night.
Know ye, O people amongst whom I walk,that I, Thoth, have all of the knowledgeand all of the wisdom known, to man since the ancient days.Keeper have I been of the secrets of the great race,holder of the key that leads into life.Bringer up have I been to ye, O my children,even from the darkness of the Ancient of Days.List ye now to the words of my wisdom.List ye now to the message I bring.Hear ye now the words I give thee, andye shall be raised from the darkness to Light.
Far in the past, when first I came to thee,found I thee in caves of rocks.Lifted I thee by my power and wisdomuntil thou didst shine as men among men.Aye, found I thee without any knowing.Only a little were ye raised beyond beasts.Fanned I ever the spark of thy consciousness until at last ye flamed as men.
Now shall I speak to thee knowledge ancientbeyond the thought of thy race.Know ye that we of the Great Racehad and have knowledge that is more than man's.Wisdom we gained from the star-born races,wisdom and knowledge far beyond man.Down to us had descended the masters of wisdomas far beyond us as I am from thee.List ye now while I give ye wisdom. Use it and free thou shalt be.
Know ye that in the pyramid I builded are the Keys that shall show ye the Way into life.Aye, draw ye a line from the great image I builded,to the apex of the pyramid, built as a gateway.Draw ye another opposite in the same angle and direction.Dig ye and find that which I have hidden.There shall ye find the underground entrance to the secrets hidden before ye were men.
Tell ye I now of the mystery of cyclesthat move in movements that are strange to the finite,for infinite are they beyond knowledge of man.Know ye that there are nine of the cycles;aye, nine above and fourteen below,moving in harmony to the place of joiningthat shall exist in the future of time.Know ye that the Lords of the Cyclesare units of consciousness sent from the others to unifyThis with the All.Highest are They of the consciousnessof all the Cycles, working in harmony with the Law.Know They that in time all will be perfected,having none above and none below, but all Onein a perfected Infinity, a harmony of all in the Oneness of All.
Deep neath the Earth surface in the Halls of Amentisit the Seven, the Lords of the Cycles,aye, and another, the Lord from below.Yet know thee that in Infinity there isneither above nor below.But ever there is and ever shall beOneness of All when all is complete.Oft have I stood before the Lords of the All.Oft at the fount of their wisdom have drunken andfilled both my body and Soul with their Light.
Spake they to me and told me of cyclesand the Law that gives them the means to exist.Aye, spake to me the Lord of the Nine saying: O, Thoth, great are ye among Earth children,but mysteries exist of which ye know not.Ye know that ye came from a space-time belowthis and know ye shall travel to a space-time beyond.But little ye know of the mysteries within them,little ye know of the wisdom beyond. Know ye thatye as a whole in this consciousness are only a cell in the process of growth.
The consciousness below thee is ever-expandingin different ways from those known to thee.Aye, it, though in space-time below thee,is ever growing in ways that are different fromthose that were part of the ways of thine own.For know that it grows as a result of thy growthbut not in the same way that thou didst grow.The growth that thou had and have in the presenthave brought into being a cause and effect.No consciousness follows the path of those before it,else all would be repetition and vain.Each consciousness in the cycle it exists infollows its own path to the ultimate goal.Each plays its part in the Plan of the Cosmos.Each plays its part in the ultimate end.The farther the cycle, the greater its knowledge and ability to blend the Law of the whole.
Know ye, that ye in the cycles below usare working the minor parts of the Law,while we of the cycle that extends to Infinity take of the striving and build greater Law.
Each has his own part to play in the cycles.Each has his work to complete in his way.The cycle below thee is yet not below theebut only formed for a need that exists.For know ye that the fountain of wisdomthat sends forth the cycles is eternallyseeking new powers to gain.Ye know that knowledge is gained only by practice,and wisdom comes forth only from knowledge,and thus are the cycles created by Law.Means are they for the gaining of knowledge for the Plane of Law that is the Source of the All.
The cycle below is not truly below but onlydifferent in space and in time.The consciousness there is working andtesting lesser things than those ye are.And know, just as ye are working on greater,so above ye are those who are also workingas ye are on yet other laws.The difference that exists between the cyclesis only in ability to work with the Law.We, who have being in cycles beyond thee,are those who first came forth from theSource and have in the passage throughtime-space gained ability to useLaws of the Greater that are far beyondthe conception of man.Nothing there is that is really below thee but only a different operation of Law.
Look thee above or look thee below,the same shall ye find.For all is but part of the Onenessthat is at the Source of the Law.The consciousness below thee is part thine own as we are a part of thine.
Ye, as a child had not the knowledgethat came to ye when ye became a man.Compare ye the cycles to man in his journeyfrom birth unto death,and see in the cycle below thee the childwith the knowledge he has;and see ye yourself as the child grown older,advancing in knowledge as time passes on.See ye, We, also, the child grown to manhoodwith the knowledge and wisdom that camewith the years.So also, O Thoth, are the cycles of consciousness,children in different stages of growth,yet all from the one Source, the Wisdom, and all to the Wisdom returning again.
Ceased then He from speaking and satin the silence that comes to the Lords.Then again spake He unto me, saying: ìO Thoth, long have We sat in Amenti,guarding the flame of life in the Halls.Yet know, we are still part of ourCycles with our Vision reaching unto them and beyond.Aye, know we that of all,nothing else matters excepting the growthwe can gain with our Soul.Know we the flesh is fleeting.The things men count great are nothing to us.The things we seek are not of the bodybut are only the perfected state of the Soul.When ye as men can learn that nothing butprogress of Soul can count in the end,then truly ye are free from all bondage, free to work in a harmony of Law.
Know, O man, ye should aim at perfection,for only thus can ye attain to the goal.Though ye should know that nothing is perfect, yet it should be thy aim and thy goal.Ceased again the voice of the Nine,and into my consciousness the words had sunk.Now, seek I ever more wisdomthat I may be perfect in Law with the All.
Soon go I down to the Halls of Amentito live beneath the cold flower of life.Ye whom I have taught shall nevermore see me. Yet live I forever in the wisdom I taught.
All that man is is because of his wisdom. All that he shall be is the result of his cause.
List ye, now to my voice and becomegreater than common man.Lift thine eyes upward,let Light fill thy being,be thou ever Children of Light.Only by effort shall ye grow upward tothe plane where Light is the All of the All.Be ye the master of all that surrounds thee.Never be mastered by the effects of thy life.Create then ever more perfect causesand in time shalt thou be a Sun of the Light
Free, let thine soul soar ever upward,free from the bondage and fetters of night.Lift thine eyes to the Sun in the sky-space.For thee, let it be a symbol of life.Know that thou art the Greater Light,perfect in thine own sphere,when thou art free.Look not ever into the blackness.Lift up thine eyes to the space above.Free let thine Light flame upwardand shalt thou be a Child of the Light.
===The Law of Cause and Effect and The Key of Prophecy===
 List ye, O man, to the words of my wisdom, 
 list to the voice of Thoth, the Atlantean. 
 Conquered have I the Law of time-space. 
 Knowledge have I gained of the future of time. 
 Know I that man in his movement through 
 space-time shall ever be One with the All
Know ye, O man,that all of the future is an open bookto him who can read.All effect shall bring forth its causesas all effects grew from the first cause.Know ye the future is not fixed orstable but varies as cause brings forth an effect.Look in the cause thou shalt bring into being, and surely thou shalt see that all is effect.
So, O man, be sure the effects that ye bringforth are ever causes of more perfect effects.Know ye the future is never in fixation butfollows man's free will as it moves throughthe movements of time-space toward the goal where a new time begins.
Man can only read the future throughthe causes that bring the effects.Seek ye within the causation and surely ye shall find the effects.
List ye, O man, while I speak of the future,speak of the effect that follows the cause.Know ye that man in his journey light-wardis ever seeking escape from the night that surrounds him,like the shadows that surround the stars in the skyand like the stars in the sky-space, he, too, shall shine from the shadows of night.
Ever his destiny shall lead him onwarduntil he is One with the Light.Aye, though his way lies midst the shadows,ever before him glows the Great Light.Dark though the way be yet shall he conquer the shadows that flow around him like night.
Far in the future, I see man as Light-born,free from the darkness that fetters the Soul,living in Light without the bounds of the darknessto cover the Light that is Light of their Soul.
Know ye, O man, before ye attain this thatmany the dark shadows shall fall on your Lightstriving to quench with the shadows of darknessthe Light of the Soul that strives to be free.
Great is the struggle between Light and darkness,age old and yet ever new. Yet, know in a time, far in the future, Light shall be All and darkness shall fall.
List ye, O man, to my words of wisdom.Prepare and ye shall not bind your Light.Man has risen and man has fallen as ever newwaves of consciousness flow from the greatabyss below us toward the Sun of their goal.
Ye, my children, have risen from a statethat was little above the beast,until now of all men ye are greatest.Yet before thee were others greater than thee.Yet tell I thee as before thee others have fallen, so also shall ye come to an end.
And upon the land where ye dwell now,barbarians shall dwell and in turn rise to Light.Forgotten shall be the ancient-wisdom, yet ever shall live though hidden from men.
Aye, in the land thou callest Khem,races shall rise and races shall fall.Forgotten shalt thou be of the children of men.Yet thou shalt have moved to a star-space beyond this leaving behind this place where thou has dwelt.
The Soul of man moves ever onward,bound not by any one star.But ever moving to the great goal before himwhere he is dissolved in the Light of the All.Know ye that ye shall ever go onward,moved by the Law of cause and effectuntil in the end both become One
Aye, man, after ye have gone,others shall move in the places ye lived.Knowledge and wisdom shall all be forgotten,and only a memory of Gods shall survive.As I to thee am a God by my knowledge,so ye, too shall be Gods of the futurebecause of your knowledge far above theirs.Yet know ye that all through the ages,man shall have access to Law when he will.
Ages to come shall see revival of wisdomto those who shall inherit thy place on this star.They shall, in turn, come into wisdomand learn to banish the darkness by Light.Yet greatly must they strive through the ages to bring unto themselves the freedom of Light.
Then shall there come unto man the great warfarethat shall make the Earth tremble and shake in its course.Aye, then shall the Dark Brothersopen the warfare between Light and the night.
When man again shall conquer the ocean and flyin the air on wings like the birds;when he has learned to harness the lightning,then shall the time of warfare begin.Great shall the battle be twixt the forces,great the warfare of darkness and Light.
Nation shall rise against nationusing the dark forces to shatter the Earth.Weapons of force shall wipe out the Earth-manuntil half of the races of men shall be gone.Then shall come forth the Sons of the Morningand give their edict to the children of men, saying:O men, cease from thy striving against thy brother.Only thus can ye come to the Light.Cease from thy unbelief, O my brother,and follow the path and know ye are right.
Then shall men cease from their striving,brother against brother and father against son.Then shall the ancient home of my people risefrom its place beneath the dark ocean waves.Then shall the Age of Light be unfoldedwith all men seeking the Light of the goal.Then shall the Brothers of Light rule the people. Banished shall be the darkness of night.
Aye, the children of men shall progressonward and upward to the great goal.Children of Light shall they become.Flame of the flame shall their Souls ever be.Knowledge and wisdom shall be man'sin the great age for he shall approach the eternal flame,the Source of all wisdom,the place of beginning,that is yet One with the end of all things.
Aye, in a time that is yet unborn,all shall be One and One shall be All.Man, a perfect flame of this Cosmos,shall move forward to a place in the stars.Aye, shall move even from out of this space-time into another beyond the stars.
Long have ye listened to me,O my children,long have ye listened to the wisdom of Thoth.Now I depart from ye into darkness.Now go I to the Halls of Amenti,there to dwell in the future when Lightshall come again to man.Yet, know ye, my Spirit shall ever be with thee,guiding thy feet in the pathway of Light.
Guard ye the secrets I leave with thee,and surely my spirit will guard thee through life.Keep thine eyes ever on the pathway to wisdom.Keep the Light as thy goal evermore.Fetter not thy Soul in bondage of darkness; free let it wing in its flight to the stars.
Now I depart thee to dwell in Amenti.Be thou my children in this life and the next.The time will come when ye, too, shall be deathless,living from age to age a Light among men.
Guard ye the entrance to the Halls of Amenti.Guard ye the secrets I have hidden among ye.Let not the wisdom be cast to barbarians.Secret shall thou keep it for those who seek Light.Now depart I.Receive thou my blessing. Take thou my way and follow the Light.
Blend thou thy Soul in the Great Essence.One, with the Great Light let thy consciousness be.Call thou on me when thou dost need me.Use my name three times in a row:Chequetet, Arelich, Volmalites.
===The Keys of Life and Death===
 List ye, O man, hear ye the wisdom. 
 Hear ye the Word that shall fill thee with Life. 
 Hear ye the Word that shall banish the darkness. Hear ye the voice that shall banish the night.
Mystery and wisdom have I brought to my children;knowledge and power descended from old.Know ye not that all shall be opened when ye shall find the oneness of all?
One shall ye be with the Masters of Mystery, Conquerors of Death and Masters of Life.Aye, ye shall learn of the flower of Amentithe blossom of life that shines in the Halls.In Spirit shall ye reach that Halls of Amentiand bring back the wisdom that liveth in Light.Know ye the gateway to power is secret.Know ye the gateway to life is through death.Aye, through death but not as ye know death,but a death that is life and is fire and is Light.
Desireth thou to know the deep, hidden secret?Look in thy heart where the knowledge is bound.Know that in thee the secret is hidden, the source of all life and the source of all death.
List ye, O man, while I tell the secret, reveal unto thee the secret of old.
Deep in Earth's heart lies the flower,the source of the Spiritthat binds all in its form.or know ye that the Earth is living in bodyas thou art alive in thine own formed form.The Flower of Life is as thine own place of Spiritand streams through the Earthas thine flows through thy form;giving of life to the Earth and its children,renewing the Spirit from form unto form.This is the Spirit that is form of thy body, shaping and moulding into its form.
Know ye, O man, that thy form is dual,balanced in polarity while formed in its form.Know that when fast on thee Death approaches,it is only because thy balance is shaken. It is only because one pole has been lost.
Know that the secret of life in Amenti is the secret of restoring the balance of poles.All that exists has form and is livingbecause of the Spirit of life in its poles.
See ye not that in Earth's heartis the balance of all things that existand have being on its face?The source of thy Spirit is drawn from Earth's heart,for in thy form thou are one with the Earth
When thou hast learned to hold thine own balance,then shalt thou draw on the balance of Earth.Exist then shalt thou while Earth is existing,changing in form, only when Earth, too, shalt change:Tasting not of death, but one with this planet, holding thy form till all pass away.
List ye, O man, whilst I give the secret so thatye, too, shalt taste not of change.One hour each day shalt thou liewith thine head pointed to theplace of the positive pole (north).One hour each day shalt thy head bepointed to the place of the negative pole (south).Whilst thy head is placed to the northward, hold thou thy consciousness from the chest to the head.
And when thy head is placed southward,hold thou thy thought from chest to the feet.Hold thou in balance once in each seven,and thy balance will retain the whole of its strength.Aye, if thou be old, thy body will freshenand thy strength will become as a youth's.This is the secret known to the Mastersby which they hold off the fingers of Death.Neglect not to follow the path I have shown,for when thou hast passed beyond yearsto a hundred to neglectit will mean the coming of Death.
Hear ye, my words, and follow the pathway. Keep thou thy balance and live on in life.
Hear ye, O man, and list to my voice.List to the wisdom that gives thee of Death.When at the end of thy work appointed,thou may desire to pass from this life,pass to the plane where the Suns of the Morninglive and have being as Children of Light.Pass without pain and pass without sorrowinto the plane where is eternal Light.
First lie at rest with thine head to the eastward. Fold thou thy hands at the Source of thy life (solar plexus).
Place thou thy consciousness in the life seat. Whirl it and divide to north and to south.
Send thou the one out toward the northward.Send thou the other out to the south.Relax thou their hold upon thy being.Forth from they form will thy silver spark fly,upward and onward to the Sun of the morning, blending with Light, at one with its source.
There it shall flame till desire shall be created. Then shall return to a place in a form.
Know ye, O men, that thus pass the great Souls,changing at will from life unto life.Thus ever passes the Avatar, willing his Death as he wills his own life.
List ye, O man, drink of my wisdom.Learn ye the secret that is Master of Time.Learn ye how those ye call Masters are able to remember the lives of the past.
Great is the secret yet easy to master,giving to thee the mastery of time.When upon thee death fast approaches, fear not but know ye are master of Death.
Relax thy body, resist not with tension.Place in thy heart the flame of thy Soul. Swiftly then sweep it to the seat of the triangle.
Hold for a moment, then move to the goal.This, thy goal, is the place between thine eyebrows,the place where the memory of life must hold sway.Hold thou thy flame here in thy brain-seatuntil the fingers of Death grasp thy Soul.Then as thou pass through the state of transition, surely the memories of life shall pass, too.
Then shalt the past be as one with the present.Then shall the memory of all be retained.Free shalt thou be from all retrogression.The things of the past shall live in today.
===Supplemental: Atlantis===
 List ye, O Man, to the deep hidden wisdom, 
 lost to the world since the time of the Dwellers, lost and forgotten by men of this age.
Know ye this Earth is but a portal,guarded by powers unknown to man.Yet, the Dark Lords hide the entrancethat leads to the Heaven-born land.Know ye, the way to the sphere of Aruluis guarded by barriers opened only to Light-born man.
Upon Earth, I am the holder of the keysto the gates of the Sacred Land.Command I, by the powers beyond me, to leave the keys to the world of man.
Before I depart, I give ye the Secrets of howye may rise from the bondage of darkness,cast off the fetters of flesh that have bound ye,rise from the darkness into the Light.
Know ye, the soul must be cleansed of its darkness,ere ye may enter the portals of Light.Thus, I established among ye the Mysteriesso that the Secrets may always be found.
Aye, though man may fall into darkness,always the Light will shine as a guide.Hidden in darkness, veiled in symbols,always the way to the portal will be found.Man in the future will deny the mysteries but always the way the seeker will find.
Now I command ye to maintain my secrets,giving only to those ye have tested,so that the pure may not be corrupted,so that the power of Truth may prevail.
List ye now to the unveiling of Mystery.List to the symbols of Mystery I give. Make of it a religion for only thus will its essence remain.
Regions there are two betweenthis life and the Great One,traveled by the Soulswho depart from this Earth;Duat, the home of the powers of illusion;Sekhet Hetspet, the House of the Gods.Osiris, the symbol of the guard of the portal, who turns back the souls of unworthy men. 
Beyond lies the sphere of the heaven-born powers,Arulu, the land where the Great Ones have passed.There, when my work among men has been finished, will I join the Great Ones of my Ancient home.
Seven are the mansions of the house of the Mighty;Three guards the portal of each house from the darkness;Fifteen the ways that lead to Duat.Twelve are the houses of the Lords of Illusion, facing four ways, each of them different. 
Forty and Two are the great powers,judging the Dead who seek for the portal.Four are the Sons of Horus,Two are the Guards of East and West of Isis,the mother who pleads for her children, Queen of the Moon, reflecting the Sun. 
Ba is the Essence, living forever.Ka is the Shadow that man knows as life.Ba cometh not until Ka is incarnate. These are mysteries to preserve through the ages.
Keys are they of life and of Death.Hear ye now the mystery of mysteries:learn of the circle beginningless and endless,the form of He who is One and in all.Listen and hear it, go forth and apply it, thus will ye travel the way that I go. 
Mystery in Mystery,yet clear to the Light-born,the Secret of all I now will reveal.I will declare a secret to the initiated, but let the door be wholly shut against the profane.
Three is the mystery, come from the great one.Hear, and Light on thee will dawn.
In the primeval, dwell three unities.Other than these, none can exist.These are the equilibrium, source of creation:one God, one Truth, one point of freedom.
Three come forth from the three of the balance:all life, all good, all power.
Three are the qualities of God in his Light-home: Infinite power, Infinite Wisdom, Infinite Love.
Three are the powers given to the Masters:To transmute evil, assist good, use discrimination.
Three are the things inevitable for God to perform: Manifest power, wisdom and love.
Three are the powers creating all things: Divine Love possessed of perfect knowledge,Divine Wisdom knowing all possible means,Divine Power possessed by the joint will of Divine Love and Wisdom.
Three are the circles (states) of existence:The circle of Light where dwells nothing but God,and only God can traverse it;the circle of Chaos where all thingsby nature arise from death;the Circle of awareness where all things spring from life.
All things animate are of three states of existence: chaos or death, liberty in humanity and felicity of Heaven.
Three necessities control all things: beginning in the Great Deep, the circle of chaos, plenitude in Heaven.
Three are the paths of the Soul:Man, Liberty, Light.
Three are the hindrances:lack of endeavor to obtain knowledge; non-attachment to god; attachment to evil.In man, the three are manifest.Three are the Kings of power within.Three are the chambers of the mysteries, found yet not found in the body of man.
Hear ye now of he who is liberated,freed from the bondage of life into Light.Knowing the source of all worlds shall be open.Aye, even the Gates of Arulu shall not be barred.Yet heed, O man, who would'st enter heaven.If ye be not worthy,better it be to fall into the fire.Know ye the celestials pass through the pure flame.At every revolution of the heavens,they bathe in the fountains of Light.
List ye, O man, to this mystery:Long in the past before ye were man-born,I dwelled in Ancient Atlantis.There in the Temple,I drank of the Wisdom,poured as a fountain of Lightfrom the Dweller.
Give the key to ascend to thePresence of Light in the Great world.Stood I before the Holy Oneenthroned in the Flower of Fire.Veiled was he by the lightnings of darkness,else my Soul by the Glory have been shattered.
Forth from the feet of his Throne like the diamond,rolled forth four rivers of flame from his footstool,rolled through the channels of clouds to the Man-world.Filled was the hall with Spirits of Heaven.Wonder of wonders was the Starry palace.
Above the sky, like a rainbow of Fire and Sunlight,were Formed the Spirits.Sang they the glories of the Holy One.Then from the midst of the Fire came a voice:Behold the Glory of the first Cause.I beheld that Light, high above all darkness,reflected in my own being.I attained, as it were, to the God of all Gods, the Spirit-Sun, the Sovereign of the Sun spheres.
There is One, Even the First,who hath no beginning,who hath no end;who hath made all things,who govern all,who is good,who is just,who illumines, who sustains.
Then from the throne, there poured a great radiance,surrounding and lifting my soul by its power.Swiftly I moved through the spaces of Heaven,shown was I the mystery of mysteries,shown the Secret heart of the cosmos.
Carried was I to the land of Arulu,stood before the Lords in their Houses.
Opened they the Doorway so I mightglimpse the primeval chaos.Shuddered my soul to the vision of horror,shrank back my soul from the ocean of darkness.Then saw I the need for the barriers,saw the need for the Lords of Arulu..
Only they with their Infinite balance couldstand in the way of the inpouring chaos.Only they could guard God's creation.
Then did I pass ëround the circle of eight.Saw all the souls who had conquered the darkness.Saw the splendor of Light where they dwelled.
Longed I to take my place in their circle,but longed I also for the way I had chosen,when I stood in the Halls of Amenti and made my choice to the work I would do.
Passed I from the Halls of Aruludown to the earth space where my body lay.Arose I from the earth where I rested.Stood I before the Dweller.
Gave my pledge to renounce my Greatright until my work on Earth was completed,until the Age of darkness be past.
List ye, O man, to the words I shall give ye.In them shall ye find the Essence of Life.Before I return to the Halls of Amenti,taught shall ye be the Secrets of Secrets,how ye, too, may arise to the Light.
Preserve them and guard them,hide them in symbols,so the profane will laugh and renounce.In every land, form ye the mysteries. Make the way hard for the seeker to tread.
Thus will the weak and the wavering be rejected.Thus will the secrets be hidden and guarded, held till the time when the wheel shall be turned.
Through the dark ages, waiting and watching,my Spirit shall remain in the deep hidden land.When one has passed all the trials of the outer,summon ye me by the Key that ye hold.
Then will I, the Initiator, answer,come from the Halls of the Gods in Amenti. Then will I receive the initiate, give him the words of power.
Hark ye, remember, these words of warning: bring not to me one lacking in wisdom,impure in heart or weak in his purpose.Else I will withdraw from ye your power to summon me from the place of my sleeping.
Hark ye, remember, these words of warning: bring not to me one lacking in wisdom,impure in heart or weak in his purpose.Else I will withdraw from ye your power to summon me from the place of my sleeping.
Now go ye forth and summon thy brothersso that I may impart the wisdom to light thypath when my presence is gone.Come to the chamber beneath my temple. Eat not food until three days are past.
There will I give thee the essence of wisdomso that with power ye may shine amongst men.There will I give unto thee the secrets so thatye, to, may rise to theHeavens, God-men in Truthas in essence ye be.Depart now and leave me while I summonthose ye know of but as yet know not.
===Supplemental: Secret of Secrets===
 Now ye assemble, my children, 
 waiting to hear the Secret of Secrets 
 which shall give ye power to unfold the God-man, give ye the way to Eternal life.
Plainly shall I speak of the Unveiled Mysteries.No dark sayings shall I give unto thee.Open thine ears now, my children. Hear and obey the words that I give.
First I shall speak of the fetters of darkness which bind ye in chains to the sphere of the Earth.
Darkness and light are both of one nature,different only in seeming,for each arose from the source of all.Darkness is disorder.Light is Order.Darkness transmuted is light of the Light.This, my children, your purpose in being; transmutation of darkness to light.
Hear ye now of the mystery of nature,the relations of life to the Earth where it dwells.Know ye, ye are threefold in nature, physical, astral and mental in one.
Three are the qualities of each of the natures; nine in all, as above, so below.
In the physical are these channels,the blood which moves in vortical motion,reacting on the heart to continue its beating.Magnetism which moves through the nerve paths,carrier of energies to all cells and tissues.Akasa which flows through channels, subtle yet physical, completing the channels.
Each of the three attuned with each other,each affecting the life of the body.Form they the skeletal framework throughwhich the subtle ether flows.In their mastery lies the Secret of Life in the body.Relinquished only by will of the adept, when his purpose in living is done.
Three are the natures of the Astral,mediator is between above and below;not of the physical, not of the Spiritual, but able to move above and below.
Three are the natures of Mind,carrier it of the Will of the Great One.Arbitrator of Cause and Effect in thy life.Thus is formed the threefold being, directed from above by the power of four.
Above and beyond man's threefold naturelies the realm of the Spiritual Self.
Four is it in qualities,shining in each of the planes of existence,but thirteen in one,the mystical number.Based on the qualities of man are the Brothers:each shall direct the unfoldment of being,each shall channels be of the Great One.
On Earth, man is in bondage,bound by space and time to the earth plane.Encircling each planet, a wave of vibration,binds him to his plane of unfoldment.Yet within man is the Key to releasement, within man may freedom be found.
When ye have released the self from the body,rise to the outermost bounds of your earth-plane. Speak ye the word Dor-E-Lil-La.
Then for a time your Light will be lifted,free may ye pass the barriers of space.For a time of half of the sun (six hours),free may ye pass the barriers of earth-plane, see and know those who are beyond thee.
Yea, to the highest worlds may ye pass.See your own possible heights of unfoldment, know all earthly futures of Soul.
Bound are ye in your body,but by the power ye may be free.This is the Secret whereby bondage shall be replaced by freedom for thee.
Calm let thy mind be.At rest be thy body:Conscious only of freedom from flesh.Center thy being on the goal of thy longing.Think over and over that thou wouldst be free.Think of this word La-Um-I-L-Ganooverand over in thy mind let it sound.Drift with the sound to the place of thy longing. Free from the bondage of flesh by thy will.
Hear ye while I give the greatest of secrets:how ye may enter the Halls of Amenti,enter the place of the immortals as I did,stand before the Lords in their places.
Lie ye down in rest of thy body.Calm thy mind so no thought disturbs thee.Pure must ye be in mind and in purpose, else only failure will come unto thee. 
Vision Amenti as I have told in my Tablets.Long with fullness of heart to be there. Stand before the Lords in thy mind's eye. 
Pronounce the words of power I give (mentally);Mekut-El-Shab-El Hale-Sur-Ben-El-Zabrut Zin-Efrim-Quar-El.Relax thy mind and thy body.Then be sure your soul will be called.
Now give I the Key to Shamballa,the place where my Brothers live in the darkness:Darkness but filled with Light of the SunODarkness of Earth, but Light of the Spirit, guides for ye when my day is done.
Leave thou thy body as I have taught thee.Pass to the barriers of the deep, hidden place.Stand before the gates and their guardians. Command thy entrance by these words: 
I am the Light. In me is no darkness.Free am I of the bondage of night.Open thou the way of the Twelve and the One, so I may pass to the realm of wisdom. 
When they refuse thee, as surely they will,command them to open by these words of power:I am the Light. For me are no barriers.Open, I command, by the Secret of Secrets Edom-El-Ahim-Sabbert-Zur Adom.
Then if thy words have been Truth of the highest, open for thee the barriers will fall.
Now, I leave thee, my children.Down, yet up, to the Halls shall I go.Win ye the way to me, my children. Truly my brothers shall ye become.
Thus finish I my writings. Keyslet them be to those who come after.But only to those who seek my wisdom,for only for these am I the Key and the Way.
