The final months of this spell-bound existence, be it terminated by mental annihilation or bya return into the quiet and mingled facts of humanity, are passed in one unbroken yet chequered dream.

…Soul of inferior grade to Bodhisattva. Buddha did not become a Srotapatti until seven incarnations before he attained to Buddhahood. The last part of the verse and the long note (of which we quote the gist) are nonsense. To describe a complete Buddha as “an ideal breath; Consciousness merged in the Universal Consciousness, or Soul devoid of every attribute,” is not Buddhism at all, and is quite incompatible with Buddhism. 98. Now bend thy head and listen well, O Bodhisattva— Compassion speaks and saith: “Can there be bliss when all that lives m…

…These are all true in one sense or another. My own "White Hope" (see The Book of Thoth) is to identify it with the Qabalistic Zero. This last attribution is useful, as I will show presently, for hard practical reasons; it is an assumption which indicates the method of the Old Wise One who approaches the Tao. As you know, the supreme classic of this subject is The Tao Teh King; and I must suppose that you have read this in at least one of the several translations, else I should have to start by pushing my own version at you.

There is thus in this School no attempt to deny that Nature is, as Zoroaster said, "a fatal and evil force"; but Nature i:::, so to speak, "the First Matter of the Work," which is to be transmuted into gold. The joy is a function of our own part in this alchemy. For this reason we find the boldest and most skilful adepts deliberately seeking out the most repugnant elements of Natur…

In the last part of the verse the adjuration is somewhat obvi- ous, and it must be remembered that with progress the realm of Maya constantly expands as that of Sat diminishes. In orthodox Buddhism this process continues indefinitely. There is also the resolution SAT= ASAT. 12. For mind is like a mirror; it gathers dust while it re- flects. It needs the gentle breezes of Soul-wisdom to brush away the dust of our illu…
