Golden clouds bathe the wall. The black crows, still not whitened by the alchemist’s work, are cawing on top of their nests, upon which they obviously wish to keep lounging around…
Meanwhile, the bride, the lonely and young soul, bottled up within the ego, melancholically sighs.
Her hands, for a while, abandon the loom where her fate is incessantly woven and unwoven. Thus, she directs her eyes towards the blue curtain of heaven which isolates her from the world…
Wretched Buddhata, unhappy soul, she is certainly very lonely. Her fiancée… her eternal beloved, the Spirit, is journeying in remote lands… All the nights lonely in her bedroom, solitude oppresses her heart and her tears fall as mild rain, fecundating the earth…
The moon is gone and the Pleiades are not visible. It is midnight. Time is slipping away. Meanwhile, lying on her bed she rests… Oh, how lonely she is…!
As the wind from the forest incrementally shakes the corpulent oaks, so Eros shakes and agitates her, wretched isolated one…
Ah! If she could attire herself with the wedding gown… If she could betroth herself with her beloved.
Unfortunately, the wretched one is dressed with lunar rags, with the suit of desire and animal mind…!
If she could know the secret of the Philosophical Stone…! If she could understand it, if she would not reject it…!
Oh ageless stone, as old as the world! Why do people hate you so much?
It is written with golden letters that Hahilla, daughter of Nadir, loves Shebbun, the most intrepid among the warriors. You know this…
The clue, the secret of the Philosophical Stone lies in sex (read the previous chapter of this book).
The soul can elaborate To Soma Heliakon,1 the Wedding Garment, the Egyptian Sahu, only based on incessant sexual transmutations, by working with the Sahaja Maithuna.
Wretched solitary soul, dress yourself with the nuptial attire, betroth yourself with your beloved so that you can sit at the table with the guests.
“The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, and sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding and they would not come.
“Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
“But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: and the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.
“But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
“Then saith he to his servants, the wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye find, bid to the marriage.
“So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
“And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment (who had not fabricated the Egyptian Sahu, the solar bodies): and he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
“Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen.” —Matthew 22:1-14
The Egyptian Book of the Occult Abode states:
“Get thee back to the uttermost parts of heaven! For behold, inasmuch as through thy form of Horus thou hast become a spiritual body (the glorious body, the sahu, the Wedding Garment of the soul, in like manner) the nemmes crown is now for thee; but (indeed) behold, thou hast the power of speech even to the uttermost parts of heaven.
“And (therefore, she - Isis - took possession of the divine attributes, and) I, the guardian, took possession of the things (divine attributes) of Horus [which belonged] unto Osiris (the Inner Logos of each one) in the underworld (in the region where live those who have dissolved the “I”).
“And (Lo and behold that) Horus (the Being) told (repeats) aloud unto me the things (the consecrated words) which his divine father Osiris (the Being of the Being) spake unto him in years [gone by] on the day of his own burial (the day of the funerals of the “I”).
“I have given unto thee the nemmes crown (the crown of sanctity that the double headed) Lion-god (granted unto thee, so) that thou mayest pass onward and mayest come to the heavenly path, and that those who dwell in the uttermost parts of the horizon may see thee, and that the gods of the underworld may see thee and may fight for thee in their habitations...
“(God grant me that) I shall behold sacred things which are hidden, and I shall be led on to (the contemplation of) the secret and holy things, even as they have granted unto me to see the birth of the Great God. (Lo and behold that) Horus hath made me (dress my members with his glorious body) to be a spiritual body through his soul (and I see what is therein).”
It is written in the mysterious pages of the great book of life that it is necessary to be born again in order to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
This is the Second Birth of which the great Kabir Jesus spoke to the Rabbi Nicodemus.
“Except a man be born of water (semen) and of the Spirit (fire) he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” —John 3
The Book of the Occult Abode states:
“Lo and behold that I am born and I come into the world in the universe of Re-stau…(the Kingdom of God).
“Thanks to my priest’s (or Guru’s) libations in front of Osiris (the Inner Logoi), I enjoy of the blessings among the glorious Sahu bodies.
“I am welcome among the spirits of Re-stau (the world of the Logos) and there I grow.”
To be born in the Re-stau with the Egyptian Sahu, marvelous synthesis of the solar bodies, is the extraordinary fruit of the fig tree.
This tree has been, is and always will be the living symbol of sex. Woe unto the sterile fig tree.
The Christian gospel states the following:
“Now in the morning as he (the great Kabir Jesus) returned into the city, he hungered. And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.” —Matthew 21
