Esoteric Courses

Course XXXV - Teaching 11: Divine Vision

Before the aspirant begins the Great Work, the Divine Mother of the Universe entertains his spirit with a total glimpse of the path he has to travel through. The Temple is One because the Spirit, basic principle of the Absolute, has neither variation, nor definition, nor qualities, nor separations; but the Divine Mother, who is the manifest part of the Universe, is two: EHS and Aeia.

Course XXXV - Teaching 12: The Veil of AEIA

A woman, dressed in gold, riding on a Dragon and crowned with stars, appeared to the Pilgrim. She showed him a fountain and submerged him in it. And the Pilgrim, after going out of the water, knew that She was Beatrix and had revealed him the secret of all things, which is the Veil of Aeia.

Course XXXV - Teaching 13: The Wisdom of the Mother

The veil of Aeia is image of life as a result, it is the effect manifested of a hidden cause. The whole Universe is image of the Divine Mother; from sidereal bodies to the tiniest grain of sand.

Course XXXV - Teaching 15: The Mystical Wedding

IHS is the man liberated, the man who does not need activity, who can reincorporate himself to the potential state of the Universe. The white seamless robe symbolizes him. The name “Albas” indicates the being reincorporated to the point from where he started or emerged: the Dawn of Eternal Manifestation.

Course XXXV - Teaching 16: History of Symbology

Since the first altar erected in the world to a divinity, image and symbol came into being. The Great Initiates of the Aryan Race presented a form or an image to those men whom they wished to teach eternal verities; from religion to religion, from philosophy to philosophy, from sect to sect, symbolical images reached the fourth dynasty in Egypt, which immortalized these Divine Symbols with figures of the Tarot.

Course XXXVI - Teaching 1: Death

To a materialist, death is a black point, a burst of sensation, a void and nothing more. To a religious person, death is the step toward a higher life, which is more perfect and happier.

Course XXXVI - Teaching 2: Elementals

The terrestrial element, Prithivi, creates elementals as guardians and caretakers of terrestrial movements, growth of trees, vegetation, and reserve of lands that the man should not contaminate. For an old legend, these beings are short, long-bearded and grotesque; according to tales and mysteries arisen from fantasy of the people, they have been called dwarfs, goblins, gnomes, et cetera.

Course XXXVI - Teaching 3: Inner Life of Earth

In the times of the Atlantean race, an immense heat, a nitric fire, was boiling in the earthly entrails. The planet did not receive calories from sun rays because the atmosphere was covered by thick clouds and vapors.

Course XXXVI - Teaching 4: Astral World

Every hour, thousands of souls leave their bodies in order to be at the hereafter, and while open graves swallow cold human images, remaining souls think and knock at the tomb, and anxiously ask: Where are they gone?

Course XXXVI - Teaching 5: Astral Divisions

The universe is based on a sevenfold plan. Material, energetic and mental states respond to seven divisions and sub-divisions. Men already know five material elements: earth, water, fire, air and ether.
