In this basic and practical introduction to the fundamental basis of Gnosis, Samael Aun Weor offers a breadth of exercises for the reader to establish stability and understanding in their daily life. The sincere person who implements the guidance given in this profound book will discover a wealth of insight from their efforts. Gnosis is, after all, "knowledge" (Greek) and each seeker is enjoined to "Know Thyself." This volume, although simple in its expression and thin in size, exudes the perfume of many centuries of profound Initiatic Wisdom. Includes the lecture "How to Make Light Within" and the pamphlet "Marriage, Divorce, and Tantrism." In ancient times, the Gnostics sought for salvation through personal, experiential knowledge of the Divine. Their methods of self-reliance and their sublime knowledge profoundly impacted society, such that the dominant powers felt threatened and the tradition was forced to disappear from public view. Now, after centuries of obscurity, the Gnostics have re-emerged, still carrying their profound message of Gnosis: knowledge of self and the Divine. In a simple and elegant way, Samael Aun Weor explains the basic methodology for people in todays world to begin to approach the greater mysteries of the Gnostics. In this basic and practical guide, Samael Aun Weor offers a breadth of exercises guiding the reader to discover within themselves a wealth of insight and understanding. Gnosis, after all, is Greek for knowledge, and the seeker is told, Know thyself, and thou shalt know the universe and its Gods.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book begins by asking the questions, "Who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? What are we living for? Why are we living?" The answers to these questions can be discovered if one knows where and how to look. No matter who we are, we feel fulfilment, happiness and purpose inside of ourselves. These qualities are not felt outside of ourselves and cannot be found in external things or circumstances. Similarly, knowledge of ourselves and our purpose cannot be found in external things, but are found inside. By knowing what is in our hearts and minds, by seeing what we usually ignore, we learn not only what we are capable of, but, also, what prevents us from developing our full potential. By knowing ourselves, we acquire the knowledge of how to change for the better. As we improve ourselves and awaken to our true nature, we spontaneously begin to radiate the light of divinity in everything we do, increasing our own happiness and spreading it to others. This is how we begin to live the Gnostic message, which states that the light of the Divine is within us. By knowing ourselves, we, also, learn about that light and can bring it into the world to benefit everyone.This book reflects and illuminates the spiritual psychology of all genuine religions and mystical traditions. With the practical guidance in this book, anyone can awaken to see the light for the Divine for themselves.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Love and sex are the basis of all creation. Modern science does not see it yet, but love and sex are the creative power at every level of nature. What attracts chemicals together to create new substances? What creates all living things, even worlds and galaxies? Sexual attraction and love. "Thirsty for love, souls always wander in search of their other half. We always need another being who can fill us, who can supply with complete exactitude that which we lack, not only in the physiological aspect, but also in the psychosomatic and spiritual aspects." --Samael Aun Weor Unfortunately, humanity still does not understand how life works. In our current condition, we are trapped in diverse psychological defects: lust, anger, envy, discontentment. These cause us to misunderstand and misuse sex. This is why we suffer. "The sexual energy can transform any person into an angel or into a beast." --Samael Aun Weor The power that can liberate us from suffering is our sexual power. That is why all authentic spiritual traditions require the preservation and transmutation of the creative, sexual power: it is the basis of spiritual development. When sexual power is harnessed by a couple in love, it can create a new substance called Kundalini, Pentecost, the sacred fire of all religions. This fire radiates spiritual light, and is the divine weapon of the gods, the vajra or thunderbolt that destroys the "devils" within us: our psychological defects, which are the causes of suffering. In meditation, with the consciousness awakened, one can see and understand the causes of suffering, liberating the consciousness from those cages. Then the divine power of Kundalini can destroy them. This is how, step by step, we liberate the light of consciousness from the darkness within us. This new edition was fully revised, and adds almost one hundred footnotes to explain key terms and concepts. It is also in a larger size making it easier to read. It includes illustrations, glossary, and index. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "You will find terrific secrets within this book, secrets that never in the history of life were published." -Samael Aun WeorAlthough the term Kundalini is associated with Indian mysticism, tantra, and yoga, the word refers to a living element in nature and is thus known in all religions by different names. In Judaism and Kabbalah, it is called Shekinah. In Christianity, it is the fire of the Pentacost that illuminated the apostles. In Buddhism it is known by many names, such as Candali.For thousands of years, many have wondered at the tales of that mysterious force, yet the method to attain this power has been hidden, misunderstood, or sometimes, intentionally sabotaged. Now, like a refreshing spring breeze, Samael Aun Weor wipes away the dust and reveals the sacred mysteries of our most ancient and holy science. With a firm foundation in scripture and practical knowledge, the method to awaken and develop the root energy of life is made clear and accessible to all. It is no longer necessary to theorize or debate: through the practice of the techniques in this book, one can know."Kundalini is the cosmic power in individual bodies. It is not a material force like electricity, magnetism, centripetal or centrifugal force. It is a spiritual potential Sakti or cosmic power. In reality it has no form." -Swami Sivananda Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Greek word gnosis means "knowledge." The higher meaning of gnosis is knowledge of facts acquired from personal experience. Gnosis is genuine knowledge of the truth. To understand truth, one must experience it.The greatest human beings in every field - philosophy, science, art, and religion - did not imitate, memorize, or remain limited by popular ideas; instead, they sought gnosis: to know the facts for themselves, and in finding the facts they changed the world for the better. Unfortunately, such people are rare.The problems afflicting individuals and society today have a simple root cause: we have not yet learned how to think. Instead, people today are taught to memorize and imitate. Schools, teachers, and parents today emphasize what we should think, rather than teaching how to think, question, and analyse, so we can recognize the facts, deal with them intelligently, and experience the truth for ourselves.When our consciousness is liberated from the conditioning and restrictions imposed upon it by imitation, bad habits, defects, vices, and mistaken beliefs, then we can see and experience the truth for ourselves. In this way, we no longer need to believe anything or follow anyone, but are free to express our fundamental nature and realize our full potential.This book guides us towards that experience, that gnosis. We need the union of superior logic and tremendous love, heart and mind balanced by conscious awareness of facts. This psychological equilibrium empowers us to alter the painful conditions that we suffer within. Therefore, we need a gnostic education: an education based on personal experience of the truth.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. For two thousand years, the teachings of Christianity have changed dramatically, especially regarding its founder and inspiration, Jesus. A master of Kabbalah and Hebrew, Jesus made the secret teachings public, enraging those who were attached to their power and traditions."If the Lord had not been crucified, the destiny of the Western world would have been another. We would now have sublime enlightened rabbis everywhere, preaching Christic esotericism. The union of Christic esotericism, secret Jewish Kabbalah, and holy alchemy would have completely illuminated and transformed the entire world. Yes, the mysteries of Levi would have shone with the light of Christ. Gnosis (Da'ath) would have magnificently shone everywhere." - Samael Aun WeorAlthough the genuine teachings of Jesus were obscured and hidden from the public, the time has come for them to be restored and made known. In THE MAJOR MYSTERIES, Samael Aun Weor reveals the practical basis of authentic Kabbalah, Christianity, and Alchemy, the science Jesus taught, which explains how to return to Eden: through the same door we used to leave it. The return to Eden is the "narrow, straight gate," the way to be "born again." Any birth, whether of the flesh or the spirit, is sexual. The author also provides an amazing account of the private life of Jesus and his process of development. Filled with practical exercises, prophecies, and guidance for liberation from suffering, THE MAJOR MYSTERIES is an essential handbook for anyone who longs to know for themselves the truth of Jesus and his message.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Thousands of years ago, the angel Metatron gave to humanity the Tarot and the Hebrew letters, which were preserved among the highest secrets of the mystical traditions, and were completely unknown to the public. Unfortunately, some cunning people stole and modified a portion of the protected teachings, and over the centuries that stolen knowledge passed through Egypt, Arabia, and finally into Europe, eventually becoming what we popularly refer to as the Tarot: a deck of cards marked by seemingly obscure images and symbols. Over the centuries, it degenerated. It was re-arranged, misinterpreted, misused. In spite of our troubled history, the real Tarot continues to exist, and has never changed, since the real Tarot was not made by humanity, but has always existed in the superior worlds. Now, in this book, you can learn about the eternal Tarot. Metatron gave the Tarot and the Hebrew letters to humanity so that we, who are so confused and blinded by our psychological state, could have some way of acquiring reliable information.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "It came to pass, when Jesus had risen from the dead, that he passed eleven years discoursing with his disciples, and instructing them." (The Pistis Sophia) The Apostles wrote down what Jesus taught them during those eleven years, resulting in "The Pistis Sophia," the most important Gnostic scripture. "The Pistis Sophia" is a sophisticated and deeply mystical teaching given by Jesus about the suffering of Sophia as she attempts to ascend to the highest spiritual truth. This scripture is remarkable for its profound mysticism, its clear rebuke of unethical behaviour and its perspective on the spiritual role of women. Having read this text, it becomes very clear why the established religious powers attempted to obliterate the Gnostics, but failed. Study of this teaching, also, inspires a re-evaluation of how the Christian Gospels have been interpreted for centuries. About this scripture, the commentary author Samael Aun Weor said, "The Hebrew Bible clearly connotes the Word of the Eternal One. However, we, the Gnostics, also have our very special Bible. I want to emphatically declare that this is The Pistis Sophia, whose original is in Coptic.It was found underground in Egypt, the land of the Pharaohs. The Pistis Sophia contains all the words of the adorable Saviour of the world. It was written by the Apostles. Thus, all the Esoteric-Christic instructions that Jesus Christ gave to his disciples on the Mount of the Olives and other holy places is written within this book. This book had been conserved in secret for many centuries. In this book, the Adorable One left an extraordinary, formidable body of doctrine."

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "All of us possess some electrical and magnetic forces within, and, just like a magnet, we exert a force of attraction and repulsion. Between lovers that magnetic force is particularly powerful and its action has a far-reaching effect." In the heart of every religion resides a sacred knowledge about the transformative power of sex. In ancient times, this knowledge was given only to those who had proven their purity and ability to use that science for the betterment of the world. Now, because the world teeters on the edge of chaos, the veils have been removed, and the secret techniques of Alchemy, Taoism, Tantra, Buddhism, and many other traditions are revealed here for you, to empower your spiritual development and benefit all of humanity. Harnessing and transforming the most powerful forces within puts us on a revolutionary path to spiritual awakening. True spiritual mastery is a result of conquering animal desires and transforming them into conscious virtues.

Therefore, to be "born again," to create spiritually, is accomplished through divine sexuality.

Filled with powerful insights into the problems we must overcome, this book provides practical solutions needed by every person who longs to transform their lives into a beacon of peace, compassion, and conscious love.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "When religion becomes artificial, art has a duty to rescue it. Art can show that the symbols which religions would have us believe literally true are actually figurative. Art can idealize those symbols, and so reveal the profound truths they contain." - Richard Wagner Parsifal, the epic, final work by Richard Wagner, stunned audiences, revolutionised theatre and music and set the stage for the decline of modern civilisation. For more than one hundred years, Parsifal has been one of the most controversial dramatic works in the world, not only moving the world's top composers and writers to tears and inspiring generations of creative geniuses, but it was, also, admired by Adolf Hitler. Wagner's retelling of the myth of the Holy Grail and the knights who protect it showed the secret path to liberation from suffering, but no one understood it. Wagner himself never explained Parsifal and in his wake thousands of writers, critics and artists have attempted to penetrate its mysteries yet have failed, since they were not initiated into the secret tradition it came from.Finally, in this book by Samael Aun Weor, the meaning of Parsifal is fully revealed and the genius and spiritual accomplishments of Richard Wagner are made radiantly clear. Includes a synopsis and full text of the drama. The true meaning of Wagner's Parsifal, fully revealed, so that the genius and spiritual accomplishments of Richard Wagner become radiantly clear. Wagner himself never explained Parsifal, which, in this fascinating book, is revealed as clearly steeped in a secret tradition of esoteric Buddhism.
