1AÑO II ABRIL DE 1943 Nº 12 La Venerable Figura del Maestro Cedaior Por Jehel S. I.
2En el número anterior de nuestra Revista os referí, panorámicamente, la vida del Hombre, la vida material y social del que, como Maestro y hermano, conocemos como CEDAIOR.
3Iniciaré en este artículo la historia de su vida iniciática.
4Ya os dije que cuando Cedaior era aún un niño, a eso de los 13 años de edad, había entrado por primera vez en contacto con el Maestro AMO (Phillippe).
5Efectivamente, un señor amigo de la familia de Cedaior, lo llevó a la presencia del Maestro AMO, por haber hallado algunas particularidades en el niño.
6El Maestro AMO lo miró largamente, seguramente con la vista interna sobre todo, y resumiendo su impresión en una sonrisa preguntó al niño: “Dime pequeño, ¿te agradaría ser útil y ayudar a curar a una señora un terrible martirio?
7El niño Cedaior no vaciló en responder por la afirmativa.
8Entonces el Maestro AMO le puso la mano sobre la cabeza por algunos instantes y dijo: “Diariamente, el señor que te trajo hasta aquí, te llevará al hospital, en el cual se halla dicha señora, QUE TIENE UN GRAVE CÁNCER AL SENO.
9Tú pondrás tu pequeña mano sobre el mal y DURANTE UNA HORA, desearás que se cure y se lo pedirás a JESÚS”.
10Con perseverante alegría el niño Cedaior hizo durante diez días lo que el Maestro indicara y, al terminar los diez días, la señora salía del hospital completamente curada.
11¿Qué misterioso lazo se estableció entre el espíritu del Plano Crístico, el Maestro Amo, la vitalidad y el buen corazón del niño Cedaior y la enferma así curada?...
12La meditación os lo dirá, si es que ya no os lo dije sin nada decir.
13Profunda impresión dejó en el niño Cedaior el hecho referido; y, al llegar a París para estudiar en el Conservatorio, como referí, sus pensamientos y sus lecturas se dirigieron con una frecuencia y una seriedad raras en personas de tal edad, hacia los temas místicos e iniciáticos.
14A los 18 años de edad crea una “sociedad secreta” con algunos compañeros, en la cual se celebraban ritos que eran una síntesis de la tradición de los misterios egipcios y otros, visando especialmente la obtención de trance voluntario y consciente.
15Graves juramentos obligaban a los miembros, y un puñal de ondulada hoja y cabo de marfil grabado con jeroglíficos era, al mismo tiempo, objeto de reconocimiento y de recuerdo del silencio aceptado.
16Varios miembros de la improvisada secta llegaron a resultados curiosos, y el propio Cedaior ya llamaba la atención de sus compañeros por la facilidad conseguía

1YEAR II · APRIL 1943 · Nº 12 — The Venerable Figure of Master Cedaior. By Jehel, S∴I∴
2In the previous number of our Review I recounted to you, panoramically, the life of the Man — the material and social life of the one whom, as Master and brother, we know as CEDAIOR.
3In this article I shall begin the history of his initiatic life.
4I have already told you that when Cedaior was still a boy, at about 13 years of age, he had come for the first time into contact with the Master AMO (Phillippe).
5Indeed, a gentleman friend of Cedaior's family brought him into the presence of the Master AMO, having found certain peculiarities in the boy.
6The Master AMO looked at him for a long while, surely with the inner sight above all, and summing up his impression in a smile asked the boy: “Tell me, little one, would it please you to be useful and to help cure a lady of a terrible martyrdom?
7The boy Cedaior did not hesitate to answer in the affirmative.
8Then the Master AMO laid his hand upon his head for a few moments and said: “Every day, the gentleman who brought you here will take you to the hospital where that lady lies, WHO HAS A GRAVE CANCER OF THE BREAST.
9You will place your small hand upon the ill and FOR ONE HOUR you will wish for her cure and you will ask it of JESUS”.
10With persevering joy the boy Cedaior did for ten days what the Master had indicated and, when the ten days were done, the lady left the hospital completely cured.
11What mysterious bond was established between the spirit of the Christic Plane, the Master Amo, the vitality and the good heart of the boy Cedaior, and the sick woman thus cured?...
12Meditation will tell you, if I have not already told you while saying nothing.
13The event just recounted left a profound impression on the boy Cedaior; and, on arriving in Paris to study at the Conservatoire, as I have related, his thoughts and his reading turned, with a frequency and a seriousness rare in persons of that age, towards mystical and initiatic subjects.
14At 18 years of age he creates a “secret society” with some companions, in which rites were celebrated that were a synthesis of the tradition of the Egyptian mysteries and others, aiming especially at the attainment of voluntary and conscious trance.
15Grave oaths bound the members, and a dagger of undulating blade, its ivory hilt engraved with hieroglyphs, was at once an object of recognition and a reminder of the silence accepted.
16Several members of the improvised sect arrived at curious results, and Cedaior himself was already drawing the attention of his companions by the ease with which he managed

The Master AMO is identified in parentheses as "Phillippe" — Nizier Anthelme Philippe of Lyon (1849–1905), the healer whom Papus openly called his spiritual master. The initials AMO recur in the transmission diagram of Nº 5 ("spiritual power of the West, Christic Realisation"), which places this childhood healing episode inside the run's own map of the current. The spelling with two l's is the retype's.

A private circle at 18, synthesising "Egyptian mysteries" for voluntary trance, is the standard fin-de-siècle occult apprenticeship — compare Guaita's private study circle before the O.K.R.C. The dagger with undulating blade recalls the flaming sword of Masonic and Martinist furniture rather than any Egyptian instrument.
