“Truth” is the necessary relation of any two 
things; therefore, although it implies duality, it 
enables us to conceive of two things as being one 
thing such that it demands to be defined by com- 
plementals. Thus, an hyperbola is a simple idea, 
but its construction exacts two curves. 
The Angel, as the adept knows him, is a being 
Tiphereth, which obscures Kether. The Adept is 
not officially aware of the higher Sephiroth. He 
cannot perceive, like the Xpsissimus, that ail things 
soever are equally illusion and equally Absolute. 
He is in Tiphereth, whose office is Rédemption, 
and he déplorés the events which hâve caused the 
apparent Sorrow from which he has just escaped. 
He is also aware, even in the height of his ecstasy, 
of the limits and defects of his Attainment. 
This refers to the phenomena which accompany 
his Attainment. 
This means the récognition of the Angel as the 
True Self of his subconscious self, the hidden Life 
of his physical life. 
The Adept réalisés every breath, everv word of 
his Angel as charged with Creative fire. Tiphereth 
is the Sun, and the Angel is the spiritual Sun of 
the Soûl of the Adept. 
Here is summed the entire process of bringing 
the conditioned Universe to knowledge of itself 
through the formula of génération1 ; a soûl 
implants itself in sense-hoodwinked body and 
reason-fettered mind, makes them aware of their 
Inmate, and thus to partake of its own conscious- 
ness of the Light. 
“Grâce” has here its proper sense of “Pleasant- 
I. That is, Yod Hé realizing Themselves, Will and Undcrstanding, m 
the twias Vau Hé, Mind and Body.
