The Equinox (Volume III, Number I)

THE EQUINOX Compare the remark of ‘Christ,’ “Except ye become as little children ye shall in no wise enter into the Kingdom of Heaven,” and also, “Ye must be born again.” It also refers to the overcoming of shame and of the sense of sin. If you think the Temple of the Holy Ghost to be a pig-stye, it is cer- tainly improper to perform therein the Mass of the Graal. Therefore purify and consecrate yourselves; and then, Kings and Priests unto God, perform ye the Miracle of the One Substance. Here is written also the Mystery of Harpocrates. One must become the ‘Unconscious’ (of Jung), the Phallic or Divine Child or Dwarf-Self. 71. The light from the ONE MASTER, the one unfading golden light of Spirit, shoots its effulgent beams on the Dis- ciple from the very first. Its rays thread through the thick, dark clouds of Matter. The Holy Guardian Angel is already aspiring to union with the Disciple, even before his aspiration is formulated in the latter. 72. Now here, now there, these rays illumine it, like sun- sparks light the earth through the thick foliage of jungle growth. But, O Disciple, unless the flesh is passive, head cool, the Soul as firm and pure as flaming diamond, the radi- ance will not reach the CHAMBER, its sunlight will not warm the heart, nor will the mystic sounds of Akashic heights reach the ear, however eager, at the initial stage. The uniting of the Disciple with his Angel depends upon the former. The Latter is always at hand. “Akashic Heights”—the dwelling-place of Nuith. 34
