Стр. 25 - ... his coming there with joy; and he, made like to them that sojourn there, doth further hear the Powers who are above the Nature that belongs unto the Eighth, singing their songs of praise to God in language of their own. And then they, in a band, go to the Father home ; of their own selves they make surrender of themselves to Powers, and [thus] becoming Powers they are in God. This the good end for those who have gained Gnosis — to be made one with God.
Стр. 32 - He is the God beyond all name; He the unmanifest, He the most manifest; He whom the mind [alone] can contemplate, He visible unto the eyes [as well]; He is the one of no body, the one of many bodies, nay, rather He of every body.
Стр. 17 - ... light Nor were the rays equal to one another, and the Light was of divers modes and various aspect, from the lower to the higher part thereof, each ray more admirable than its fellow in infinite manner, in the great radiance of the immeasurable Light It stretched from the earth to the heaven. ... It was of three degrees, one surpassing the other in infinite manner. The second, which was in the midst, excelled the first, which was below it, and the third, the most admirable of all, surpassed the...
Стр. 6 - I, Mind, myself am present with holy men and good, the pure and merciful, men who live piously. [To such] my presence doth become an aid, and straightway they gain gnosis of all things and win the Father's love by their pure lives, and give Him thanks, invoking on Him blessings, and chanting hymns, intent on Him with ardent love.
Стр. 23 - Word (Logos) make to consist the things that are. Holy art Thou, of whom All-nature hath been made an Image. Holy art Thou, whose Form Nature hath never made. Holy art Thou, more powerful than all power. Holy art Thou, transcending all pre-eminence. Holy Thou art, Thou better than all praise. Accept my reason's offerings pure, from soul and heart for aye stretched up to Thee, 0 Thou, unutterable, unspeakable, Whose Name naught but the Silence can express.
Стр. 36 - Who, then, may sing Thee praise of Thee, or praise to Thee? Whither again, am I to turn my eyes to sing Thy praise; above, below, within, without! There is no way, no place is there about Thee, nor any other thing of things that are. All are in Thee; all are from Thee, O Thou who givest all and takest naught, for Thou hast all and naught is there Thou hast not.
Стр. 49 - For I will sing the praise of Him who founded all; who fixed the Earth, and hung up Heaven, and gave command that Ocean should afford sweet water to the Earth...
Стр. 50 - I joy in Joy of Mind. Sing with me praises all ye Powers! Sing praise, my Self-control; sing thou through me, my Righteousness, the praises of the Righteous; sing thou, my Sharing-all, the praises of the All; through me sing, Truth, Truth's praises! Sing thou, O Good, the Good! O Life and Light, from us to you our praises flow! Father, I give Thee thanks, to Thee Thou Energy of all my Powers; I give Thee thanks, O God, Thou Power of all my Energies!
Стр. 23 - Thou better than all praise. Accept my reason's offerings pure, from soul and heart for aye stretched up to Thee, O Thou unutterable, unspeakable, Whose Name naught but the Silence can express! Give ear to me who pray that I may ne'er of Gnosis fail— Gnosis which is our common being's nature— and fill me with Thy Power, and with this Grace of Thine, that 1 may give the Light to those in ignorance of the Race, my Brethren and Thy Sons!
Стр. 15 - In the Teaching of Egypt, around the radiant being, which in its regenerate life could assimilate itself to the glory of the Godhead, was formed the ' khaibit,' or luminous atmosphere, consisting of a series of ethereal envelopes, at once shading and diffusing its flaming lustre, as the earth's atmosphere shades and diffuses the solar rays. And at each successive transformation (Ritual, Ixxvii.-Ixxxvii) it descended nearer to the moral [? normal] conditions of humanity.
