ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Cedaior (Albert Raymond Costet de Mascheville) was a French-born mystic and Martinist who moved to South America in the early 20th century. Between 1915-1919, he received what he claimed were direct teachings from Master Vayu, a Fourth Ray spiritual guide, concerning the emergence of humanity's next evolutionary stage - the Olympic Race or Sixth Sub-Race.

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL WORK

As Leis de Vayu (The Laws of Vayu) presents a complete system for conscious spiritual evolution, including:

  • Detailed cosmology and human evolutionary history
  • Practical methods for conscious procreation and child-rearing
  • Community organization principles for spiritual development
  • Integration of Eastern reincarnation concepts with Christian covenant theology
  • Systematic approach to individual and collective spiritual advancement
