1It is the Male, the Female and the Divine Ego, or Crown, united in the grand triad of Angel that completes the Trinity. The Divine male, or Wisdom, which gives forth the idea of all action; the Divine female, which clothes the idea of her Lord with form from her crea¬ tive nature, and the sexual vibrations of both which endow the idea with evolutionary life and motion; these constitute one of the arcane mysteries of life. On such subjects as these I could write volume after volume and neither tire nor reach the end of experience and the things I have seen and heard in realms of brighter beings than on earth. Many marvels have been disclosed to me in my wanderings in the Occult world. I could tell you of the homes of the dead, of the damned, of the lost; of the homes of the blest, of the pure and virtuous in life; and of infinitely higher realms than these, where no mortal of earth 178 THE LIGHT OF EGYPT hath trod, or even dreamed of; except he has passed through the fire of soul purification, a fire seven times hotter than the fiery furnace that purified Shadrach and his companions.
2I put my body into the deep magnetic sleep and instantly leaped forth into the boundless ether. Oh, how gloriously Orion and the Pleiades were shining in the starry vault of night. The Moon lent her glory to the scene while all the living, pulsating, life of the astral spaces was joyous with the full vigor of creative life. I merely noticed these things as I sped with the swiftness of light itself, once more, to visit my far-off spirit home; once more, to see the treasures I had collected in the past; treasures I had fought for, suffered for; treasures that I had won for myself alone. Oh, how I drank in the melodies of the circu¬ lating stars and from the bottom of my soul sang forth, “We praise thee, O God.” This world is a preparatory place of probation, passion and pain, to expand the inner spiritual self and enable it to reach outward and upward toward that grander life that constitutes the goal of every purified soul after its final Initiation.
3Our organisms are nothing more than the plastic molds of mediumistic matter; external vehicles of the soul; through which it may attract to and gather up the varied experiences of mundane fife. They are forms, as transitory as the fleeting clouds above us, which become the sensitive plates, whereby the marvelous vibrations of creative and Deific life may express their wonderful transformations of sensations; and which, in turn, produce all the multitudinous delights of the phys¬ ical senses; while the only living reality amid the Universe of moving, transitory and apparent realities, is the Divine Ego; God of each biune soul. Each one of us is but one of the reacting forces of a biune soul, and the immortal Ego; which binds together and forever the separated yet united identity of each. Each one’s Ego is their own God; the only God; for Allah in His own image created He him; male and female created He them. Woman was not the cause of the “fall”. The real cause, per se, of descent into external conditions, was the necessity for conflict with the grosser forms of life and matter, whereby the soul could awaken the dormant atomic entities of its own being.
