The sacraments of Priesthood relate to Tiphereth, which is the sixth Sephirah of the Tree of Life. It is related to the heart.

  • Sacraments of the Gnostic Church 07 Sacrament of Matrimony

    07/04/2009 Duration: 01h53min

    The union of man and woman is a sacred bond, the most ancient and holy religious sacrament. Matrimony is "the state or condition from which the Divine Mother can act." Lecture quote: "Like all of the sacraments, the sacrament of matrimony is sacred (these two words - sacrament, sacred - come from a common source). This is why in all of the ancient religions and mystical traditions of humanity, matrimony or marriage has always been considered a religious act, a sacred act. That is why marriage has always been in the domain of the priesthood, not the government, until recent times, when marriage has become more of an economic factor. When we talk about the sacraments, what we are really discussing are sacred initiations or levels of instruction that the soul passes through. These sacraments have been instituted by the Gnostic Church, which has its primary domain in the realm of Daath (Hebrew for knowledge, which is that realm where the Father/Mother unite in order to create; this is the level of the Yab/Yum, t

Lecture quote: "In this course, we are going to explain the sacraments instituted since ancient times in the church of Christ, which has its latest roots in Egypt. Internally, the Holy Gnostic Church is situated in the superior dimensions. Yet, in this day and age, the Holy Gnostic Church has in the physical world a physical exponent in every Lumisial of our visible and invisible Gnostic organisations that form the gigantic Gnostic Movement. The Gnostic Church was instituted by the Master Jesus two thousand years ago in the Middle East, but is a church that has a history much longer than that. It is related with the mysteries of ancient Egypt that has its roots in Atlantis, which come from a Neptunian-Amen

  • Ring of the Nibelungen Explained 04 The Meanings of Gotterdammerung

    A brief summary of the opera, followed by a discussion of the hidden meaning. Read a synopsis of the opera. Read a transcription of the lecture. Quoted from the lecture: "Gotterdammerung, “the twilight of the gods”: We are now arriving at the end of this great masterpiece that hides profound mysteries that only those who walk on the path of the self-realization of the being can understand. Friedrich Nietzsche talked about the superman but he was mistaken thinking that the man existed. He did not know that first the man has to be created in order for the super man to act in that man. And this is precisely what here, in this great opera, is hidden, which is that superior aspect that only those that walk on the path and who are already on the level of human being can understand. Remember that it is written that the man is only a bridge between the intellectual animal and the superman. But we don’t have to fall into the mistake of believing that the human being already exists, because it does not exist. The hu

Quoted from the lecture: "Siegfried is the third opera in this series by Richard Wagner. And in this third part we penetrate even deeper into profound Initiatic mysteries whose true meaning and true content had never before been publicly revealed. In this story of Siegfried we see symbolized aspects of the Cosmic Drama that any initiate from any time or place has to live within their own consciousness. This Cosmic Drama is universal. It has always existed, and it will always exist. Very few have seen the Cosmic Drama for what it is, because very few have lived it."

  • Ring of the Nibelungen Explained 02 The Meanings of Die Walkure

Quoted from the lecture: "So, in this part of Wagner’s opera, Die Walkure, is hidden a marvelous doctrine of Alchemy, which is always shown through the different myths of different religions. The Nordics are precisely the descendants from the Hyperboreans, and the Hyperboreans are the manifestation of an ancient past, which in esotericism is called the Mahamanvantara of the Sun, or the Solar Round."

Quoted from the lecture: "This story of the Rhinegold is a prologue or a preface; it is the introduction to the main story. Das Rheingold is the archaic past upon which the remaining three operas are founded. So it is important for the audience of Das Rheingold to understand the point of the opera and to understand the conflicts that are expressed in it. It is these conflicts, related to Alberich and the Rhinegold and the Gods, that play out over the course of the remaining three operas."

    Tantra is the science of harnessing the continuum of energy that exists on all levels of the universe. Lecture quote: "This continuum of energy, the constant flow of energy as cause and effect, is called in Sanskrit: Tantra. The word Tantra means “loop, flow, continuum.” It is the constant movement of energy and matter. The word Tantra has great power, because it refers to the root movement of energy in all levels of existence. When we use the word Tantra in Gnosis, it has two primary applications: Tantra as the continuum of energy Tantra as the practices and techniques that harness and use that energy Now, this word Tantra is unfortunately being grossly misused by humanity..."

    05/03/2009 Duration: 02h17min

    The five causes of illness, and a overview of the twelve apostles and their symbolic relationship to the biological organism. Quote: "Now, it is necessary to comprehend and understand what the Glorian is, in order to comprehend and understand what we state on the Five Causes of Illness.  In Hinduism and Theosophy, you hear about the Trimurti, of Atman, Buddhi, Manas.  Yet here, we talk about the Glorian, which, we have to understand, is made by another Trimurti that is above the Trimurti of Atman, Buddhi, Manas). Glorian is related to the word Glory. In Kabbalah, in Hebrew , Glory is Hod. the astral light.  Yes indeed, the Glorian is pure astral light – Spiritual light.  The Glorian also relates to the Ray of Okidanokh.  The master Madame Blavatsky states in her Secret Doctrine that Okidanokh (the Glorian) is a ray of the Absolute, profoundly unknowable to itself, profoundly mysterious to itself.  The comprehension of this statement helps us to understand why the universe exists, and why we exist.  The Glori

  • Transformation of Energy 04 Work with the Mercury

    04/03/2009 Duration: 01h34min

    Hermes or Mercury is the most important symbol of the tradition of Alchemy. Yet, the Alchemists always kept its true identity veiled. In the modern era, the veil has been removed; now it is time to work with Mercury and transform oneself in a radical way. Lecture quote: "Hermes has an ancient tradition. He is the messenger of the sun. He is the closest companion to the sun. And of course we know the planet Mercury is the closest planet in our solar system to the sun, and has a very rapid orbit. In mythology he is said to be an intercessor, or a messenger who works on behalf of the sun, or with the Christ. When we study Hermes or Mercury, we understand that he was always viewed as a God of fertility. And as a God of fertility, he was worshipped symbolically by piles of stones that were placed at crossroads. And this contains a very potent symbolism." Read the lecture transcription.

  • Transformation of Energy 03 The Metallic Planets of Alchemy

    03/03/2009 Duration: 01h35min

    Learn about the influence of the planets across the course of life and their importance in alchemy, or the science of transformation. Lecture quote: "We have to understand and comprehend that the fluid of the Logos is related with the seven main metals, because when we talk about the planets we always refer to the law of heptaparaparshinokh, which is the law of seven, the law that organizes. And that reminds me, or brings into my mind, the Book of Revelation; it is stated there that the lamb, which is a symbol of fire, or that fluidic energy, has seven eyes and seven horns. And it is because the Solar Christ or that fluidic energy organizes itself in this solar system, and in any solar system, through the law of seven, which are represented by the seven planets, related with the week. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, which is of course a wrong organization, because the right organization of the planets is Moon the first, Mercury the second, Venus the third, Sun the fourth, M

  • Daath 03 The Wives of Adam

    03/03/2009 Duration: 01h28min

    The real meanings hidden in the symbols of Cain, Abel, and Seth and the mark or seal of Revelation. Lecture quote: "Daath [דעת] is Hebrew and means knowledge. It is spelled with three letters: Daleth [ד], Ayin [ע], and Tav / Tau [ת]. The Tree of Knowledge is one of those symbolic trees described in the myth of Adam and Eve. In order for us to grasp the meaning of Daath, we have to first grasp that Adam and Eve are a myth—not a myth in the sense that it is not true or not real, but a myth in the sense that it is a mystery. Adam and Eve is a mystery—a story that contains and hides the truth. The mystery of Daath relates to the entirety of what we are as Being." Read the lecture transcription.

  • Transformation of Energy 02 The Pancatattva Ritual

    02/03/2009 Duration: 01h18min

    The Pancatattva Ritual is an ancient ritual known in India whose goal is the transformation of substances into higher energies. Panca is a Sanskrit word that means five, and tattva is a Sanskrit word that means truth, suchness, true being; We understand that a tattva is a vibration of the Ether, which in its place is a transformation or vibration of Prana or Solar Light. Pancatattva refers to five vibrations or five types of energy, harnessed by those who want to merge into the highest forces of the universe. Lecture quote: "From the point of view of Gnosis, in fact, in any real spiritual tradition, we understand that everything that exists has its origin in the womb of the Divine Mother. That womb is a vastness, an emptiness we call the Akash or Akasha. It is a primordial substance, but it is also not a substance. You could say it is “undifferentiated matter,” but it is before matter. It is called Mulaprakriti, which is the great womb of Divine Mother space, and from that womb arises everything that exists,
