…Para-Brahman{ BHAKTA YOGA. Union by love. In Bhakta Yoga the aspirant usually devotes himself to some special deity, every action of his life being done in honour and glory of this deity, and, as Vivekananda tells us, “he has not to suppress any single one of his emotions, he only strives to intensify them and direct them to God.” Thus, if he devoted himself to Shiva, he must reflect in his life to his utmost the life of Shiva; if to Shakti the life of Shakti, until the seer and the seen become one in the mystic union of attainment. * Deussen. …

The white world glitters in the void, and swims Through infinite seas of transcendental trances. Yea ! all the hoarded seed of all my fancies Bursts in a shower of suns ! The wine-cup brims And bubbles over ; I drink deep the hymns Of sorceries, of spells, of necromancies And all my spirit shudders ; dew bedims My sightthese girls and their alluring glances ! Their eyes that burn like dawns lascivious lances Waking …

… been here examined. 6. The ancient scheme of the Elements, Planets and Zodiacal Signs, was summarised by the Qabalists in their Tree of Life. This identity between the two systems was masked, until quite recently1, by the fact that the Chinese continued with their doubling‐up system, and so turned their eight trigrams into sixty‐four hexagrams, while the scholars of Western Asia joined together their ten num‐ bers on the Tree of Life by twenty‐two Paths. The Chinese have thus sixty‐four principal symbols as against the thirty‐two of the Tree; …

…h a measure As the gardens lord Makes his votaries dance to, death Draws with soft delicious breath To the maiden and the man. Love and life are both a span. Ere the crimson lips have planted Paler roses, warmer grapes, Ere the maiden breasts have panted, And the sunny shapes Flit around to bless the hour, Comes men know not what false flower : Ere the cup is drained, the wine Grows unsweet, that was divine. All the subtle airs are proven False at dewfall, at the dawn Sin and sorrow, interwoven, Like a veil are drawn Over love and all delight,…

Life—shall I ever reach the splendid sword Of womanhood, and gird it, gain my will, A human soul, and from that altitude Renew the terrible war against the Gods ?

…dew bedims Their quivering skins : lip fastened unto lip : Whole soul and body frenzied meet and clip ; And the breath staggers, and the life-blood swims ! Terrible gods chant black demoniac hymns As the frail cords of honour strain and slip. For in the midst of that tremendous tide The mighty vigour of a god was mine ! Drunk with desire, her lamentations died. The dove gave place a moment to the swine ! Rapturous draughts of madness ! Out she sighed Uttermost life’s love, and became a bride. Beneath the sonnet, in pencil, and feebler hand, are…

…tand this planet and this social status "to which it has pleased God to call me." The Brethren of the Rose and Cross deprecated monastic life or hermit life: perhaps they thought such expedients cowardly, or at least as a confession of weakness. I agree. One ought to be able to live the normal life of a member of one's class, to all external seeming; at least sufficiently so as not to appear unduly eccentric. Perhaps "Let my servants be few and secret!" bears some such implication. But the condition of allowing such apparent laxity is this: Tha…

Now when the zons grow to millionfold, Hath earth one mystery, one glory new ? Are not these thoughts immeasurably old ? Only—day breaks as I am musing sadly; The phantoms scatter—is not earth divine ? I leap to saddle; gallop forward madly Into the morning strong and keen as wine. The gold air whistles and the glad horse thunders, Spurning the quiet woodland: now the light Stirs bird and beast—a thousand glow…

Verily, it is the Art of Life to develop each Organ of Body and Mind, or, as I may say, each Weapon of the Will to its Perfection, neither distorting any Use, nor suffering the Will of one Part to tyrannize over that of another. And this Doctrine (be it accursed!) that Pain and Repression are wholesome and profitable in themselves is a lie born of Sin and of Ignorance, the false Vision of the Universe and of its Laws that is the Basis…
