This is called Menstruation.<\/p>\n<p>An ovum, unfertilized by a spermatozoon, finally leaves the uterus after a few days and a new vital rhythm begins.<\/p>\n<p>We have been told that at the point where the ovum is released, a so-called infinitesimal &#8220;yellow body&#8221; is formed.<\/p>\n<p>This is the marvelous fruit which possesses the precious substance of vigorous power from which the whole body obtains an energetic and structured result.  And so the blood stream as well as all the vital cells are, in a manner of speaking, electrically charged anew.<\/p>\n<p>The more chaste the woman is, the more she transmutes and sublimates sexual energy, the more she produces within her a physical and spiritual revival&#8230;  <\/p>\n<p>Undoubtedly the more spasms and orgasms she has, the less the production of internal structural secretion. The valuable organic nuclei of the genital glands cannot then be transformed into that ethereal substance of delicate tissue which gives the physical cells of the body their tension and capacity for renewal, so premature aging and illnesses occur.<\/p>\n<p>Also the longer or shorter the breathing pattern of the mother during labor determines the quality of the baby&#8217;s first breath.

That is indubitable.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, if we want to return to the Sacred Absolute Sun, we have to do the same as he does, and if we try to violate that Law, the only thing we would achieve would be the degeneration of the Sacred Sperm and the Sexual Secretions located within the organism, with its corresponding psychological results.<\/p>\n<p>What are they, for example?<\/p>\n<p>The development of the abominable KUNDARTIGUADOR ORGAN and the charging of VENENOSKIRIAN forces, terribly evil.<\/p>\n<p>There was a time, during the Night of the Great Pralaya, when the Sacred Sun was, let&#8217;s say, AUTO-EGOCRATIC, it stood on its own, but was already beginning to lose volume.<\/p>\n<p>That is why the One-Existent, wanting to save him, created the Universe and the Day, the Maha-Manvantara, dawned, and this is how he managed not to dissolve and sustain himself.<\/p>\n<p>There was also an event, within the Sacred Absolute Sun, which was extraordinary: Many Souls, or many Adepts, initially entered the Sacred Sun, but since they still had inhuman elements within, the result was terrible.<\/p>\n<p>The mixing of the Aura, let us say, of those Beings with the Aura of the Solar World, became disastrous.<\/p>\n<p>That was the most terrible critical period, but fortunately it passed.<\/p>\n<p>Well, this contact of these beings with the Sacred Sun is called &#8220;GENEO-TRIAMATSIKAM-NIANO&#8221;, a rather difficult term, right ?: Ge-neo-tria-mat-si-kamnia- no.<\/p>\n<p>And that the TEOMEGALOGOS, that is, the Logos-Germologos (essential word) underwent alterations, and the result was felt throughout the Solar Universe, throughout the System &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>People who were manufacturing the Superior Existential Bodies of the Being, were impregnated with that radiation that was already altered, and many individuals who went into Adept, in the superior parts of their Being received damages.<\/p>\n<p>That is why it became necessary for the Uni-Existing, the Eternal Common Cosmic Father, to create a secret world of purification, which exists in the Solar System.<\/p>\n<p>In that secret world, those who want to enter the Sacred Sun must stay for a while.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThere they eliminate the residues left behind and then they pass on to the Sacred Absolute Sun, and the inhabitants of the Sacred Absolute Sun (itself) who were harmed, then went to live on this planet that is well known by the name of &#8220;PURGATORY PLANET&#8221; .<\/p>\n<p>Well, all we had already talked to you roughly and I repeat it today with one purpose: To make them see that ONLY THROUGH TRANSMUTATION CAN THE PHILOSOPHICAL STONE BE CREATED, and that to transmute, we imitate the Sacred Absolute Sun, we act in tone with him, because that&#8217;s how he lives and sustains himself.<\/p>\n<p>Now, transmutation is not only enough; this has to go on ACCOMPANIED BY THE REMOVAL OF THE UNDESIRABLE ELEMENTS that we carry within.<\/p>\n<p>Effort is needed in order to be able to eliminate such undesirable elements, but an UPRIGHT  EFFORT, that is to say, a Conscious Effort, not a Mechanical Effort, which is good for nothing.<\/p>\n<p>One needs TO WORK ON THE EMOTIONAL CENTER in order for one to do something useful, because only working on the Mind, only working with the cold intellect, one does nothing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\u2013Paraphrase from \u201cBasic Rules of the Precious Gem\u201d Lecture #128<br \/>\nin El Quinto Evangelio by Samael Aun Weor<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Using Sex to Achieve Illumination <\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cMay the gods of the dawn speak!  May the muses inspire me!  May the hurricane howl! <\/p>\n<p>It is written with fiery embers in the book of all mysteries that all the Avatars of Ishvara always present the requirement of the Omnimerciful Universal Spirit of Life, in order to restore upon the face of the earth \u201cthe original face\u201d, the paradisiacal pristine state of ADAM-KADMON, the androgynous entity who incarnates the pair: man- and-woman.<\/p>\n<p>This precious reestablishment of the cosmic Being within each one of us, is precisely performed in the delightful instants of that supreme ecstasy of love in which two beings, one masculine, the other feminine, in complete coitus, consciously cede their differential individuality in order to fuse themselves into one.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, since this unity is not only physical, but also of a PSYCHO-SPIRITUAL type, the Doctrines that reject the SEXUAL MAGIC of Eros are anti-human and anti-divine.<\/p>\n<p>The recognition of the human being as the image and likeness of the living cosmos and thus the cosmic purpose of one\u2019s sexual potency is found in the cultural- spiritual environment of the present era, and mainly in the most refined esoteric circles.<\/p>\n<p>Medieval theologians and naturalists knew something about the connection between the sexual energy and the prodigious forces that traversed the inalterable infinite&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Thus, Saint Albert Magnus was imbibed in the profound belief about the power of the stars, which exerts a decisive influence upon the sexual potency of the individual.<\/p>\n<p>Saint Albert believed that the stars were bipolar, that is to say of an Angelic and Animal nature. He arrived at the logical conclusion that a double union, spiritual and animal, can occur in the matrimony.<\/p>\n<p>St. Augustine, the Gnostic Patriarch, emphasizes the idea that the sexual libido encompasses not only the entire body, but also the inner Being, which (in carnal agitation) is linked with the psychic, in such a manner that a pleasurable sensation is formed that has no equal among sensual sensations. <\/p>\n<p>Thus, in the instant in which it reaches its culminating point, all consciousness and all energy of understanding is disconnected.<\/p>\n<p>This disconnection between consciousness and intellect is precisely the one that can transfigure the delightful coitus into something supernatural, spiritual and terribly Divine.<\/p>\n<p>The ultimate goal of mystical practices, like that of Zen or that of Christian quietism of Fray Miguel de Molinos, is that they can lead us to the stillness and silence of the mind. <\/p>\n<p>The new arrives only when the mind is still, when the mind is in silence.  In those moments of indescribable delights, the consciousness escapes from within the mortifying mind in order to experience the reality.<\/p>\n<p>The second Zen Patriarch asked Bodhidharma:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHow is it possible to attain the Tao?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Bodhidharma answered:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cExternally, all activity ceases; internally, the mind ceases to be agitated. <\/p>\n<p>When the mind has become a wall, you can then enter the Tao.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u2026Before reaching perfection, a lot of work in the \u201cNinth Sphere\u201d is needed.  This is with the purpose of removing the dualistic, egotistical and profoundly rooted thoughts which surge forth from within the passions.<\/p>\n<p>The gospel of the Tao has stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Purify your heart,<br \/>\ncleanse your thoughts,<br \/>\nstop your appetites<br \/>\nand conserve the semen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The author of the EL-KTAB, a marvelous book appreciated by the Arabs, does not become tired of glorifying coitus.  <\/p>\n<p>With just reason, coitus is (for him) the most magnificent and sacred hymn of praise, the most noble aspiration of the man and his companion the woman, behind the primeval union and the paradisiacal delights. <\/p>\n<p>Love is the Fiat Lux of the book of Moses, the Divine Commandment, the law for all continents, seas, worlds and spaces.<\/p>\n<p>When we courageously grasp that Lance of Eros with the evident purpose of reducing into dust all and every one of those subjective elements that we carry within, then, light surges forth. <\/p>\n<p>Imprisoned essence, light in a potential state exists within every subconscious entity.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, in the same manner that the atom liberates energy when it is fractionated, likewise, the total destruction of any of our internal elements liberates light.<\/p>\n<p>We need to make light within each one of ourselves. \u201cLight, more light\u201d exclaimed Goethe, when dying.<\/p>\n<p>Sexual magic is the eternal foundation of the luminous and spermatic <em>Fiat <\/em> of the first instant.<\/p>\n<p>The radical death of the Ego and other inhuman elements that we carry within ourselves leads us to the Final Illumination (Samyasam Bodhi).<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the Zen or &#8216;WU&#8217; illumination varies greatly, from the superficial glimpse of the beginners over their mental essence, until the complete Buddhism, as was performed by Buddha.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\u2013Paraphrase from Ch.45 of <em>Parsival Unveiled <\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Part 3<br \/>\nSummary and Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s summarize what we have studied in this course:<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Ray of Creation in Descent<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cGod\u201d or Divinity creates with the Word or Verb.  This is related with the Logos (which means \u201cWord\u201d in Greek).  <\/p>\n<p>In the Gnostic Kabbalah, the Logic Triangle (or Triangle of the Logos) is the first manifestation outside of the Ain Soph Aur.  It has 3 aspects: Kether, Chokmah, Binah; Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva; Father, Son (Christ), Holy Spirit.  <\/p>\n<p>These are also called the Three Primary Forces: Holy Affirming (or Active), Holy Denying (or Passive), and the Holy Reconciling or Conciliating (or Neutral).<\/p>\n<p>Creation is only possible when these 3 forces work together.  Often, the third force is not so easy to recognize without observation, since it is not always as \u2018material\u2019 or \u2018physical\u2019 as the first two.  But whenever these forces work together, they always create something.<\/p>\n<p>The Divinity creates with the \u201cLaw of Three\u201d and organizes with the \u201cLaw of Seven\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Law of Seven corresponds to the seven notes of our western musical scale: DO-RE-MI-FA-SOL-LA-SI.  After SI, then is another DO, which restarts the notes.  For this reason, the Law of Seven and the Law of Octaves are almost the same.  However, the Law of Octaves means DO-RE-MI-FA-SOL-LA-SI-DO (eight notes) and also reminds us of the \u2018Intervals\u2019 or \u2018Pauses\u2019 between certain notes.<\/p>\n<p>If these \u2018Intervals\u2019 or \u2018Pauses\u2019 are not \u2018filled\u2019 by \u2018Shocks\u2019, then the direction of the line of notes (or the particular octave) curves and does not go in a straight line.  <\/p>\n<p>This brings us to the 2nd thing that the Law of Octaves refers to: the direction of the line of notes.  Of which there are basically 2: Straight Line and Curved line (which reminds us of the Straight Path and the Spiral Path).<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, we need to understand how and when to use \u2018Shocks\u2019 in order to continue directing the notes in a particular way.<\/p>\n<p>Shocks are the means by which we can escape the mechanicalness of the Law of Octaves.  Normally (naturally) nature is curved and only \u2018Accidental Shocks\u2019 happen to \u2018fill\u2019 the \u2018Intervals\u2019 or \u2018Pauses\u2019 at the corresponding places where they are necessary.  We cannot rely on accidents for self-realization, so we must CREATE \u2018Artificial Shocks\u2019 (or \u2018Conscious Shocks\u2019).<\/p>\n<p>Shocks allow us to continue our progress in a certain direction, and we must understand: how important they are and the difference between \u2018Accidental Shocks\u2019 and \u2018Conscious Shocks\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>In Cosmic Octave of the Ray of Creation in Descent, the first \u2018Interval\u2019 or \u2018Pause\u2019 is filled by the \u2018Will of the Absolute\u2019 (or Our Common Father\u2019s will).  The second \u2018Interval\u2019 or \u2018Pause\u2019 is filled by \u2018Organic Life on Earth\u2019.  <\/p>\n<p>As human beings, humanoids, or intellectual animals, we form part of Organic Life on Earth.  This means that we are in an \u2018Interval\u2019 or \u2018Pause\u2019 in the Cosmic Octave, not in a note.  <\/p>\n<p>Our role is to take in \u2018influences\u2019 (energies, vibrations, radiations, etc.) from the Worlds above (the \u2018Planetary Worlds\u2019 or notes which are above) and transform them so that they can be received in the World below (the Earth itself or the notes which are below).<\/p>\n<p>In terms of nature, our existence is fulfilled if we are a good transformer of energies (that is, if we digest and retransmit those influences from above into \u2018food\u2019 for the Earth).  Nature does not need us to self-realize, nor does it need us to work on ourselves at all.  Nature does not require us to have our Solar Bodies or eliminate our Egos.  <\/p>\n<p>All nature needs is its \u2018food\u2019 and in the end, when our organism is no longer able to perform its function for nature, we will be swallowed up by the Earth.  We could also refer to this as the \u2018Wheel of Samsara\u2019, although this also includes the different Kingdoms of Nature (atom, mineral, plant, animal, humanoid), as well as the Laws of Evolution &#038; Involution, etc.  <\/p>\n<p>The Philosophical Earth (our Physical Organism) returns to the Physical Earth and that is all, unless we choose to apply \u2018Shocks\u2019 to ourselves&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>So, if we want to be more than just an organic antenna (absorbing energies and retransmitting them), then we\u2019ll need to study and understand the work that must be done in order for us to get off the Wheel of Samsara.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nBefore we talk about that, let\u2019s finish up our understanding of the Ray of Creation in Descent.<\/p>\n<p>When \u2018matter\u2019 or \u2018substance\u2019 is studied in the different Worlds (or notes), we look at it from the point of view of which force is acting through it.  This refers to the 3 Primary Forces: either it is a substance that is the conductor of the Active force (called \u201cCarbon\u201d), or a conductor of the Passive force (called \u201cOxygen\u201d) or a conductor of the Neutral force (called \u201cNitrogen\u201d).  <\/p>\n<p>If we study the substance without considering the force acting through it, then we call it \u201cHydrogen\u201d.  Any substance can be considered a \u201cHydrogen\u201d at any moment, because this simply means that we are not worried about the force active through it in that moment.  Instead, we are more concerned with the type of matter or substance it is.<\/p>\n<p>What are the different types of matter or substance?  There are 12 fundamental types of matter (according to Gnosis) and those related to how the substance can be used and which World it is related to.  <\/p>\n<p>Substances with smaller numbers (like \u201cHydrogen 6\u201d) are more refined that substances with larger numbers (like \u201cHydrogen 48\u201d).  A more refined substance means that it can be used in a higher World, whereas a less refined substance is of use in a lower World (or note in the Cosmic Octave).<\/p>\n<p>If one wants to ascent to the Absolute, then one must learn to work with more refined substances and higher Worlds.  <\/p>\n<p>As Samael Aun Weor says in Ch.13 of Treatise of Sexual Alchemy: <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c\u2026if we wish to create our interior Universe, then we must create as God did when creating the Universe.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Thus, we must understand the Law of Three, the Law of Seven and the Law of Octaves, as well as the different type of matter or substance and their correspondences, if we want to do the Gnostic Esoteric Work.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>The Ray of Creation in Ascent<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now that we understand our position (as an organism in \u2018Organic Life on Earth\u2019), let study what must be done in order to get off the Wheel of Samsara.  To do so implies paying all the Karma we owe, as well as creating our Solar Vehicles or Bodies and eliminating our Egos.<\/p>\n<p>We are all born as Human Being #1, #2 or #3, that is: either as a #1 Motor-Instinctive person, or as a #2 Emotional person, or as a #3 Intellectual person.  This corresponds to our \u2018Center of Gravity\u2019, which is a term that emphasizes the things we \u2018gravitate to\u2019 and \u2018gravitate around\u2019, as well as things that are associated together for a certain reason.  <\/p>\n<p>There are lots of different \u2018Centers of Gravity\u2019, not just which of the 3 Brains predominates in us.  For example, a location geographically, a person in a social network, even Egos can be Centers of Gravity.  This is a term that helps us understand why things group together in certain ways based on affinity.  <\/p>\n<p>If we want to change what we gravitate to and\/or around, then we can do so, but we must realize that this is the beginning of fighting against nature.  If we want to change from Human Being #1, #2, or #3, then we have to balance our centers (not letting one predominate) and let Balance become our new Center of Gravity.  The Balanced person corresponds to Human Being #4.<\/p>\n<p>Each of the 3 Primary Forces, which make up the Logoic Triangle have their Centers of Gravity as well.  <\/p>\n<p>For Kether (the Father), it is in the head (in Kether itself, and associated with the Logoic Triangle itself).  <\/p>\n<p>For Chokmah (the Son\/Christ) it is in the Heart (in Tiphereth, and associated with the Ethical Triangle \u2013 Chesed, Geburah, Tiphereth).<\/p>\n<p>And for Binah (the Holy Spirit) it is in the Sexual Organs (in Yesod, and associated with the Magical Triangle \u2013 Netzach, Hod, Yesod).  <\/p>\n<p>Every Authentic or \u2018Real\u2019 Human Being has these three triangles in themselves, and so we should work to develop them within ourselves.  The Logoic triangle is related with the Logos and the 3 Primary Forces.  The Ethical triangle (or Triangle of the Son) is related with the Causal World or World of Causes.  <\/p>\n<p>Samael mentions that the Causal world is the world of Intuition, the world of Mathematics.  This implies a relationship between Ethics and Mathematics.  Reflect on this because Morals are not Ethics.  Morals are like a \u2018code\u2019 of conduct that we mechanically adhere to often without knowing why.  Ethics are based on calculations, on a deeper understanding of the fundamental principles of the universe.<\/p>\n<p>Morality, says Gurdjieff, consists of \u2018Buffers\u2019.  Buffers are a means by which we can always be \u2018in the right\u2019 (that is: never \u2018wrong\u2019).  Buffers hinder us from feeling \u2018Shocks\u2019 related to our behavior, thoughts, feelings, etc., and are therefore a hindrance to awakening the Consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>We must be very careful of trying to convert Gnosis into a set of Rules that are mechanically followed, based on \u2018Good\u2019 and \u2018Bad\/Evil\u2019.  Remember that in pure Esotericism, \u2018Good\u2019 is everything that is in its place and \u2018Bad\/Evil\u2019 is everything that is out of its place.  If we simply see things as \u2018Good\u2019 and \u2018Bad\/Evil\u2019, then this hinders us from Understanding (from Comprehending) the relationship Causes and Effects.  <\/p>\n<p>The Causal World is where Causes begin and the Physical World is where their Effects end.  We should strive to Understand which Effects where produced by which Causes.  Then we can progress Consciously.<\/p>\n<p>The Magical Triangle is related to the 3 Brains (Netzach = the Mental World, the Mind and\/or Superior and Inferior Intellect; Hod =  the Astral World, Superior and Inferior Emotions; Yesod = the Etheric\/Vital World, Motor-Instinct-Sex). <\/p>\n<p>Gurdjieff tells us that \u201cMagic is Doing\u201d, which he contrasts with \u201cEverything Happens\u201d.  \u2018Doing\u2019 means not just allowing what the forces of nature, of culture, of the egos, want to happen; it is to struggle against these forces.  Therefore it is important to study what these means, not just in our Psychology, but also in the Human Organism itself.<\/p>\n<p>The Human Machine is a 3-story factory that receives different types of \u2018foods\u2019 or \u2018fuels\u2019.  These are physical food, air and impressions. <\/p>\n<p>In a normally functioning person (#1, #2 or #3):<\/p>\n<li>Food (Hydrogen 768) converts into Hydrogen SI-12;<\/li>\n<li>Air (Hydrogen 192) converts into Hydrogen MI-48;<\/li>\n<li>and Impressions (Hydrogen 48) turns into Hydrogen DO-48, it doesn\u2019t get converted into a higher Hydrogen.<\/li>\n<p>This is the normal state of affairs for a person who is not applying \u2018Artificial\u2019 or \u2018Conscious\u2019 Shocks to themselves.  If we choose \u2018to Do\u2019 (that is to modify the functioning of our organism by making special effort), then we can change this functioning to increase the production of higher Hydrogens.  But in order to understand this we have to study how the machine works normally.  <\/p>\n<p>The normal Human Machines often has the \u2018Wrong Working\u2019 or \u2018Incorrect Functioning\u2019 of the Centers.  This is often where our energy goes, and why we do not have energy at the end of the day.  Technically, this is when one of the Inferior Centers steals the Sex Center\u2019s fuel.  <\/p>\n<p>Each Center has its own \u201cEngine\u201d, that is: a particular speed that it \u2018works\u2019 (or processes information) and a specific fuel that it uses in order to function normally.  The \u201cEngine\u201d of the \u2018Intellectual Center\u2019 is the slowest and also uses the crudest (or least refined) fuel: Hydrogen 48.  The Emotional Center is the next fastest, along with the Motor and Instinctive Centers, which use Hydrogen 24 for their fuel.  The Sex Center is the fastest and it uses the same fuel that it produces (Hydrogen SI-12) in order to function.  <\/p>\n<p>Since the Sex Center is the fastest and uses the most refined fuel, then this means it also has the fastest \u2018burning\u2019 fuel (Hydrogen SI-12).  If the Sex Center\u2019s fuel is used by other Center (such as the Emotional), then the corresponding \u201cEngine\u201d speeds up beyond its normal speed and this necessarily produces \u2018wrong work\u2019 or \u2018incorrect functioning\u2019.  This is almost always what occurs in a normal person\u2019s Human Machine.  <\/p>\n<p>After this type of \u2018wrong working\u2019 has occurred, if one tries to use the Sex Center\u2019s \u201cEngine\u201d, then it cannot function properly (that is to say, at its normal speed), because the only fuel available for it to work is a less refined, slower burning, fuel (such as Hydrogen 24 or Hydrogen 48).  Therefore, the Sex Center performs poorly and typically the operator of the Human Machine does not understand why.  This is also called the \u2018Abuse of Sex\u2019 because, either the Sex Center\u2019s fuel is stolen and\/or it is forced to try and work with a fuel that doesn\u2019t allow it to function properly.  <\/p>\n<p>When any \u201cEngine\u201d uses a fuel that is not its own, then this produces \u2018wrong working\u2019.  So what does this \u2018wrong working\u2019 look like?  The most common are: the expression of negative emotions, the misuse of the imagination, and the abuse of the center of movement.  Since all of this is only possible through the stealing of the Sex Center\u2019s fuel and using it improperly in another Center, then we could also call this a type of \u2018Fornication\u2019.  <\/p>\n<p>Often, the results of this \u2018wrong working\u2019 do not just remain in the Human Machine (with its corresponding Internal States), but end up causing us problems in the Outside as well. Through our Words and Actions, we create Causes and those have their related Effects. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>Sex and the Ray of Creation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[coming soon]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Part 1 The Results of Adultery \u201cSince a woman\u2019s body is a passive and receptive element, it is clear that her body collects and stores more of the results of the sexual acts than all of those men who commit adultery with her.
