Evolution, Involution, Revolution

Upon creating the intransigent dogma of Evolution, the decrepit Western mind totally forgot the destructive processes of Nature. It is interesting that the degenerated mind cannot conceive the inverse, Involutive process on a large scale.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

The mind, in a state of decrepitude, confuses a fall with a descent and the process of destruction, dissolution on a large scale, degeneration, etc., it classifies as change, progress, Evolution...

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Everything Evolves and Involutes, ascends and descends, comes and goes, fluxes and refluxes; a systole and diastole exists in everything, in accordance with the Law of the Pendulum.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in The Law of the Pendulum

Evolution and its twin sister Involution are two laws which are developed and processed in a coordinated and harmonious manner in everything created.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Evolution and Involution constitute the mechanical axis of Nature.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in The Mechanical Man

Evolution and Involution are two mechanical laws of Nature which have nothing to do with the Self-Realization of man.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

The Inner Self-Realization of man can never be the product of any mechanical law, but rather the result of a conscious work carried out upon and within oneself, on the basis of tremendous super-efforts, in-depth comprehension and intentional voluntary sufferings. Everything returns to the point of departure and the Lunar Ego returns after death to a new womb.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Laziness, Return and Reincarnation, The Mechanical Man

We, the Gnostics have never denied the Law of Evolution, but we do not accept such a mechanical law as dogma.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in The Mechanical Man

The Laws of Evolution and Involution are the mechanical axis of nature. For every ascent there follows a descent; to all evolution there corresponds a specific involution. There is evolution in the seed that germinates, and in the shoot which grows and develops, and in the plant that bears fruit. There is involution in the tree that no longer grows, withers away, becomes old and dies.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in The Mechanical Man

The Law of Evolution and Progress, and the Law of Involution and Retrogression, are two mechanical laws that work in a coordinated and harmonious fashion in all of nature. All things evolve and involute, advance and retrogress. Evolution exists in all organisms that are born and develop; involution exists in all organisms that grow old, and die.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Certainly, the laws of evolution and of involution work in a harmonious and coordinated manner in all of nature.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in The Mechanical Man

It is indubitable that every rise is followed by a fall, every ascent by a descent; it would be absurd, therefore, to suppose that the law of evolution was something different. If we ascend a mountain, we will undoubtedly arrive at the peak; afterwards we would need to descend. This is how the law of evolution and involution is, my dear brothers. These two great laws constitute the mechanical axis of all nature; if any of these two laws was to functioning for just a moment, all natural mechanisms would in fact become paralyzed. There is evolution in the grain that germinates, grows and develops; involution exists in the plant that withers and dies.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in The Mechanical Man

There is evolution in the creature that develops within the maternal womb, in the child that is born, in the adolescent, in the youth; involution exists in he who ages and The evolving and involutive processes are completely organized within this great creation.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Many think that we could reach happiness through the mechanics of evolution. This is a false concept because mechanics are mechanics. The law of evolution and also that of involution, constitutes the mechanical axis of this machinery which is called Nature.

The Fifth Gospel Psychoemotional Metamorphosis of Man Third Chamber – Mexico City – July 27, 1977 also in The Mechanical Man

We are asserting statements that displease the fanatics of those theories based on the “Dogma of Evolution;” nevertheless, it is certainly true that the laws of evolution and devolution, creation and destruction are simultaneously processed in nature. Nature contains all possibilities, even the most sinister. Nature is nature.

Aztec Christic Magic, 1973

Its metal is lead, and stone, the black onyx. The musical note is Do in the second octave. In the number 8 are to be found the Laws of Evolution and Involution. That which is subject to evolution violates the Laws of the Holy Eight, violates the Laws of mathematics; thus every evolution is followed by involution. These two Laws form the Holy Eight.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978

These two Laws of Evolution and Involution cannot lead us to Self-Realisation; the Path of Consciousness is needed. In nature, in the universe, everything is mathematics. The Holy Eight represents the brain, heart and sex of the planetary Genie. We already know that the struggle is terrible: brain against sex, sex against brain, heart against heart. The Holy Eight has 365 precepts; those precepts must not be violated.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978

In ancient times the dogma of evolution did not exist. In those days the sages understood that historical processes always take place according to the Law of the Pendulum. Everything has its ebb and flow, its rise and fall, increase and decrease, moves to and fro in accordance with this marvellous Law.

The Great Rebellion, 1975 also in The Law of the Pendulum

It is not strange at all that everything oscillates, that everything is subject to the swaying of time, and that everything evolutes (evolves) and involutes.

The Great Rebellion, 1975 also in The Law of the Pendulum

The three qualities of nature. Before this universe existed, only Akash and Prana existed. These are the three qualities of Satwa, Rayas and Tamas. Harmony, emotion and inertia lived in total equilibrium, but when this equilibrium was lost, then came the movement of the great balance of Nature, the flux and reflux, good and evil, hatred and love, etc. It was then that the human Inner-Beings became a member of this great university of nature; and here we involuted and evolved, and if we want to become free of nature, we must transcend the three qualities of nature called harmony, emotion and inertia.

Zodiacal Course, 1951 also in The Law of the Pendulum

I consider that life could not be explained without periodic evolutions and involutions such as that of the Punk wave, which is noticed in plants, animals, human beings, in stars and in constellations.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

Historical cycles also have an evolution and then the involution which fatally presents itself, which wears out rocks, pulverizes suns, transforms someone who was once a boy into an old man, converts the tree into coal and sinks continents into the depth of the oceans, or causes them to emerge.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

It is not possible for the true human being to appear through evolving mechanics. We know very well that evolution and its twin sister devolution are nothing else but two laws which constitute the mechanical axis of all Nature. One evolves to a certain perfectly defined point, and then the devolving process follows. Every ascent is followed by a descent and vice versa.

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975 also in The Mechanical Man

Obviously, if one does not fight against life, the latter devours him, and true aspirants who do not allow themselves to be swallowed by life are rare. If we do not work on ourselves, we involute and degenerate, because it is not possible for the true man to arise by means of the mechanical evolutionary law, as this law has its counterpart, which is involution. One evolves up to a certain perfectly defined point, and then the involuting process comes; any ascent is followed by a descent and vice versa.

The Fifth Gospel The Balance of the Energetic Centers Conference given to Gnostic students also in The Mechanical Man

The Atlantean wise men profoundly studied all the evolutive, involutive and neutral forces of nature, and the idea occurred to this old sage of defining the first two forces with the terms good and evil. Forces of an evolutive type he called good and forces of an involutive type he named evil. He did not give a name to the neutral forces.

Fundamental Education, 1970

Every centrifugal force can be converted into a centripetal force. Every involutive force can be transformed into an evolutive force.

Fundamental Education, 1970

Within the infinite processes of energy in an evolutive state there are infinite processes of energy in an involutive state.

Fundamental Education, 1970

The central nucleus of this planetary mass in which we live is doubtless the mathematical place or point where all lines of force coming from diverse directions converge. The involutive and evolutive forces of Nature can be found at the centre of planetary stability, where they reciprocally equilibrate.

The Three Mountains, 1972

If we carefully observe the entrails of the Earth, we will find copper as the center of gravity of all evolving and involutive processes in nature.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

If we apply just the positive force to such a metal we will see with objective clairvoyance, extraordinary evolving developments. If we apply the negative force, we can evince in a direct manner, descending, involutive forces in all the atoms of said metal. If we apply the neutral force, we will see processes of atomic stabilization in such a metal.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Copper, for example, within the interior of the planetary organism in which we live, is the center of specific gravity of all involutive and evolving forces.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

If we apply the positive force of the universe to copper, we can then contemplate multiple marvelous evolving processes with the spatial sense.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

If we apply the universal negative force to said metal, we will be able to perceive with integral clairvoyance, infinite evolving processes very similar to the ones of the multitudes that inhabits the entrails of the Earth.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

If we apply the neutral force of copper the evolving process as well as the involutive processes remain in a static state.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The laws of evolution and of involution constitute the mechanical axis of all nature, the silver axis of the wheel of SAMSARA.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

From the strictly academic point of view the word EVOLUTION means: development, construction, progression, improvement, advance, edification, dignification, etc. Making a clear, orthodox and purely grammatical approach: the term Involution signifies inverse progression, retrogression, destruction, degeneration, decadence, etc.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

The exclusion of any of these two aforementioned Laws - EVOLUTION and INVOLUTION - would give rise to static, quiescent, radical paralysis of natural mechanisms.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

To deny then, any of these two decrees in fact signifies a fall into barbarism... There is EVOLUTION in the plant which germinates, develops and grows. There is INVOLUTION in the plant which gets old and slowly decreases until it becomes kindling. EVOLUTION exists in every organism which gestates, is born and grows.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

INVOLUTION exists in every creature which expires and dies.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

There is EVOLUTION in every cosmic oneness which emerges from chaos; there is INVOLUTION in every planet in a state of consumption signalled to become a moon, a corpse...

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

There is Evolution in every ascending civilization; there is involution in any descending culture...

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

It is evident that both the afore-mentioned Laws constitute the fundamental mechanical axis of Nature.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in The Mechanical Man

Unquestionably without such a basic axis, the wheel of natural mechanisms would not be able to turn. Life flows in waves which rotate with the Arcane 10 of the Tarot... Essential waves start their EVOLUTION in the mineral kingdom, proceed with the plant state, continue on the animal scale and finally reach the level of the intellectual humanoid...

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

Life waves descend afterwards, involuting towards the interior of the planetary organism to go down through the animal and plant scales returning down to the mineral kingdom. The wheel of SAMSARA turns; on the right side evoluting Anubis ascends, on the left involuting Typhon descends.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Return and Reincarnation

We have been quite justly told that any of the humanoid periods always consist of a hundred and eight existences of both the evolutive and involutive type, more or less alternating.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

After each humanoid epoch, and in accordance with the Laws of Time, Space and Motion, the Wheel of the Arcane 10 of the TAROT inevitably turns; and so it is manifestly clear that the involutive waves of life descend into the interior of the planetary organism only to reascend later on...

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

The wheel of SAMSARA turns three thousand times. Understand that, to capture it's profound significance is essential and cannot be postponed if we really long for the final Liberation.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Return and Reincarnation

Essential surges start their evolution in the mineral reign, continue in the vegetable state and then in the animal scale, and at last reach the level of the intellectual humanoid type. Surges of life descend soon, involuting according to the Law of the Fall, reviving animal, vegetable and mineral processes, towards the terrestrial centre of gravity.

The Three Mountains, 1972

The wheel of Samsara turns: on the right-hand side ascends evoluting Anubis, on the left involuting Typhon descends.

The Three Mountains, 1972

Justly, we have been told that any one of the humanoid periods always consists of one hundred and eight lives of evolutive and involutive type that are always processed and repeated, be it in an elevated or in a lower type of spiral.

The Three Mountains, 1972 also in Return and Reincarnation

After each humanoid epoch, according to the laws of time, space and movement, the wheel of the Arcanum 10 of the Tarot inevitably turns. Then, it is obvious and manifest that the surges of involuting life descend into the mineral kingdom submerged towards the centre of planetary stability, to ascend again evolutively somewhat later on. Any new evolutive re-ascension from the terrestrial centre of gravity requires the previous disintegration of the Ego. This is the Second Death.

The Three Mountains, 1972 also in Return and Reincarnation

In each one of the multiple cyclic turns of the Samsara Wheel are included multiple Evolutive processes through the Mineral, Vegetal, Animal and Humanoid Kingdoms.

The Three Mountains, 1972

Each one of the 3.000 fatal turns of such wheel means in fact terrible descendent involutions towards the planetary centre of stability, going down slowly through the Humanoid, Animal, Vegetal and Mineral steps.

The Three Mountains, 1972

At the end of 108 lives, the wheel has made a complete turn. Whilst it rises we observe evolution through the mineral, vegetable, animal and human kingdoms; on falling, it descends via the same route.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978 also in Return and Reincarnation

On the right Anubis always ascends evolving, and on the left involuting Typhon descends.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

With this we want to talk very clearly and say: One evolves up to a perfectly defined point through nature and then one involutes.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

We ascend evolving on the right side of the wheel and descend involuting on the left side of the same wheel.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Obviously the elementals of the mineral, vegetable and animal kingdoms evolve and involute in their own natural levels; we could never conceive the absurd idea that the elementals of nature, because of f in such and such a living species, can make the wheel turn in the reverse direction to return to the abyss through the door from which they came out.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Elemental Magic

This means that among other things, that evolving Anubis will always climb on the right and that on the left, involuting Typhoon will perpetually descend.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The evolving ascent begins, properly said, from the mineral kingdom.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Any esoterist investigator with awake consciousness can verify the crude reality of evolving creatures of the superior mineral kingdom (to differentiate them from the submerged inferior one).

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

On falling upon our earth, the stellar rays produce colors, sounds, metallic elementals which condense into metals; metallic elementals that evolving become vegetable elementals; vegetable elementals which transform into animal elementals; and animal elementals which, at last, awaken their divine sparks to incarnate them, for the first time, into men who become angels to return once again to their father who engendered them. All this descent and ascent of the virginal sparks through this journey of matter is symbolized by the ladder in Jacob’s dream.

Zodiacal Course, 1951 also in Elemental Magic

152. The Monadic Essences begin to show their own individuality when they pass through the evolution of the vegetable kingdom of Nature.

Igneous Rose, 1954

Listen, men and gods! Initiations are awakenings of the consciousness, intimate matters of the consciousness. Let us learn how to be quiet, to be humble, modest. Authentic evolution is in the consciousness, not in the “I”. The “I” does not evolve; it complicates itself, that is all. Mineral consciousness evolves when it awakens as plant consciousness. Each mineral atom is the physical body of an elemental creature full of beauty. These mineral elementals have a language, their consciousness, they gather in tribes or families; they resemble innocent children.

The Greater Mysteries, 1956 also in Elemental Magic

The internists know that these vegetable elementals, evolving, later become animal elementals. The great magicians know animal el elemental magic and frequently perform miracles with the animal elementals.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

The totemists know that animal elementals, when they are very evolved, then become human beings. Every well advanced animal elemental reincarnates in a human body. The totemist priests wisely say that if the human being does evil, he may involute, regress, to once again become an animal. This is true.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in Elemental Magic, Return and Reincarnation

From the vegetable kingdom, one passes to the human, but through the animal; this signifies that we cannot make leaps, because nature does not make leaps. If the animal elemental degenerates, then it involutes, retrogresses as far as the mineral state, passing first, naturally, through the vegetable state.

Beyond Death also in Elemental Magic, Return and Reincarnation

Fourth, none of the evolving elemental surges could enter into the Devic or Angelic kingdom without having previously passed through the gigantic human evolution.

Occult Medicine and Practical Magic, 1955 (ed. 1978) also in Elemental Magic

Sixth, if we clairvoyantly observe the interior of a rock, we will see millions of mineral elementals evolving within that rock. Therefore, the rock is only the physical body of those mineral elementals, as the plants are the physical body for the vegetable elementals. Seventh, if we observe an animal we see that the body of that animal is the physical body of an animal elemental, who is preparing itself in order to enter into the human state.

Occult Medicine and Practical Magic, 1955 (ed. 1978) also in Elemental Magic

Answer: Distinguished brother, allow me to inform you that many elementals of nature passed through the infernal worlds. In other words, I clarify: after the second death every soul becomes an elemental of nature and begins its evolving process, as I have already said many time from the hard rook continuing through vegetable and animal states until it reaches the state of intellectual humanoid.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Elemental Magic, Return and Reincarnation

In the interim the elementals of the distinct kingdoms evolve and involute, but they could not return to avernus, since they do not possess ego; only humanoids can enter avernus because they have ego in their interior, with this explanation the question remains clarified and the answer given.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Elemental Magic

Within those protoplasmic, lunar bodies of Intellectual Animals are contained the Laws of Evolution and Involution.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

The Protoplasmic, Lunar Bodies evolve up to a certain point which is perfectly defined by nature and then initiate their involutive return to the original point of departure. The Virginal Sparks, the Monadic Waves caused to emerge in the mineral past, the Protoplasmic Bodies with which the Mineral Elementals, the gnomes or pygmies garbed themselves.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Elemental Magic

The entrance of the Mineral Elementals into the Vegetable Evolution produced a change in the Protoplasmic Bodies.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Elemental Magic

The entrance of the vegetable elementals into Animal Evolution of the irrational provoked, as is natural, new changes in the Protoplasmic, Lunar Bodies.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Elemental Magic

When the elementals of plants enter into animal evolution, they suffer new transformations within their Protoplasmic Bodies.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in Elemental Magic

When the evolving wave of life passes from the animal into the human being, that is, when the elementals of animals enter into human wombs for the first time, then, new changes and metamorphoses are verified within their Protoplasmic Bodies.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in Elemental Magic

The Laws of Evolution and Devolution are enclosed within the Lunar Protoplasmic Bodies.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Protoplasmic Bodies evolve until a certain point, perfectly defined by nature; afterwards, they downwardly precipitate through the way of Devolution, reverting their processes until reaching their original point of departure.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Devolution of the Protoplasmic Bodies is performed within the Submerged Mineral Kingdom.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

It is not strange that the Protoplasmic Bodies initiate their devolution in this cellular world; however their complete devolving processes are processed within the UnderWorld.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

It is evident that these internal bodies, which were studied by Mister Leadbeater, Annie Besant and many other authors, are nothing else but lunar bodies, protoplasmatic bodies which evolve until certain points that are perfectly defined by Nature. Then afterwards, they precipitate themselves into the involuted way until reaching the point of their original departure.

Runic Magic, 1969

When any cell of said vital organ, in other words, when any subject is too perverse or fully fulfills his time of one hundred and eight lives without having produced fruit, it ceases to be born so as to precipitate its involution in the Infernal Worlds.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Return and Reincarnation

In practice we have been able to verify that in materialist schools, as well as in spiritualist schools, people are completely imprisoned in the dogma of evolution.

Fundamental Education, 1970

Modern views on the origin of man and his past evolution are in essence pure cheap sophistry; such views do not withstand a profound critical study.

Fundamental Education, 1970

In spite of all Darwin’s theories being accepted on blind faith as truths by Karl Marx and his much touted dialectical materialism, modern scientists know nothing about the origin of man, they have proved nothing, they have experienced nothing directly and lack accurate, specific, and precise evidence on human evolution.

Fundamental Education, 1970

On the contrary, if we take the history of humanity, say the last twenty or thirty thousand years B.C., we will find precise evidence; unmistakable signs of a superior type of man, incomprehensible to modern people, and whose existence can be verified by many testimonials, ancient hieroglyphs, extremely ancient pyramids, exotic monoliths, mysterious papyri and diverse ancient monuments. Regarding prehistoric man—those strange and mysterious creatures so similar in appearance to the intellectual animal, and yet so distinct, so different, so mysterious, and whose celebrated bones are at times found deeply hidden in archaic deposits from the ice age or pre-ice age—modern scientists know nothing precise about them through direct experience.

Fundamental Education, 1970

Gnostic science teaches that the rational animal, such as we know him, is not a perfected being, he is not yet a Man in the complete sense of the word. Nature developed him to a certain point and then abandoned him, leaving him at complete liberty to continue his development or lose all his possibilities and degenerate.

Fundamental Education, 1970

The laws of evolution and involution are the mechanical axis of all of nature, and they have nothing to do with the intimate self-realization of the Being.

Fundamental Education, 1970 also in The Mechanical Man

Inside the intellectual animal tremendous possibilities exist that can be developed or lost. It is not a law that these possibilities develop themselves. The mechanics of evolution cannot develop them.

Fundamental Education, 1970

The development of such latent possibilities is only possible in well-defined conditions, and this demands tremendous individual super-efforts and the experienced assistance of the Masters who have already accomplished this work in the past.

Fundamental Education, 1970 also in Laziness

The intellectual animal is a grain, a seed; from that seed the Tree of Life can be born, the real man, that “man” for whom Diogenes was looking at midday through the streets of Athens with a burning lantern, and whom he unfortunately could not find.

Fundamental Education, 1970

It is not a law that this grain, that this most special seed, will be able to develop.

Fundamental Education, 1970

What is normal, what is natural, is that it be lost.

Fundamental Education, 1970

The true man is as different from the intellectual animal as the bolt of lightning from the cloud.

Fundamental Education, 1970

Emphatically we can affirm that the revolution of the consciousness is not only rare in this world, but is becoming rarer and rarer as time goes on.

Fundamental Education, 1970

The revolution of the consciousness has three perfectly defined factors: First: death. Second: birth. Third: sacrifice for humanity (the order of the factors does not change the result).

Fundamental Education, 1970 also in Entropy and Sacrifice, Revolutionary Ethics

If we do not want the revolution of the consciousness, if we do not make tremendous super-efforts to develop the latent possibilities that will lead us to intimate selfrealization, it is clear that these possibilities will never develop.

Fundamental Education, 1970 also in Laziness

Those who attain self-realization, those who save themselves are extremely rare, and there is no injustice in this, because why should the poor intellectual animal have what it does not want?

Fundamental Education, 1970

A radical, total and definitive change is needed. However, not all beings want that change, they do not desire it, they do not know about it, and when they are told about it, they do not understand it, they do not comprehend it, it does not interest them. Why should they be forcibly given something that they do not want?

Fundamental Education, 1970

The truth is that before the individual acquires new faculties or new powers that he is not even remotely aware of and which he still does not possess, he must acquire faculties and powers that he mistakenly thinks he has, but in reality does not have.

Fundamental Education, 1970

According to the dictionary, the ordinary definition of the word Evolution is: “a process of progressive development” that is governed by certain precise, yet unknown laws. For the Epicurean Swine or henchmen of Materialistic Dialectics, the concept of Evolution, first of all, rejects the idea of an Intelligent Plan and a Creator Logos. The foolish fanatics of that farce written by Karl Marx (which is called Materialistic Dialectics) stupidly believe that Evolution is an independent and mechanical process without God or Law.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

For the students of the different Pseudo-Esoteric and Pseudo-Occultist Schools, the concept of Evolution, first of all, includes the idea of an Intelligent Plan and a Creator Logos.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Thus, the word Evolution contains in itself a Dogmatic significance; precisely, this is its characteristic feature.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The present materialistic scientific bases of Evolution are: first, the Nebular Theories related with the origin of the Universe; with all their innumerable alterations, modifications, additions, restrictions, and so on. Indeed, all of these do not even minutely alter this original mistaken conception theory related with the mechanical constructive processes and second, the capricious Theory of Darwin related to the Origin of the Species with all its corrections and subsequent changes.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Evolution and Transformation of the species (in strictly Darwinist sense) is based upon “Facts” artificially selected. In order to prove such a theory, they rely on Comparative Anatomy, on Morphology, on Embryology, on Paleontology, etc. However, in each decade they deny the “Facts” from the previous decade and substitute old “Facts” for new “Facts.” Nevertheless, such a theory remains untouchable.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Indeed, the appearance of new species (as a result of the Law of Evolution) is no more than a simple hypothesis since it has never been verified. Nobody has ever witnessed the appearance of a new species.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

When creating the Theory of Evolution, modem thought forgot about the destructive devolving processes of nature. The reason lies in the much too limited field of intellectual vision of these times. Due to this, pompous theories are elaborated upon; all of them are very beautiful but all have an insufficient number of “Facts.” Within these theories, none of the processes are certainly and entirely known; these theories only observe part of the process of evolution. Erudites state that this process consists as a type of evolving change.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

In this day and age, the human mind is already so degenerated that it has become incapable of even comprehending the inverse degenerative process on a greater scale. Present Erudites’ minds are so trapped (bottled up within the Dogma of Evolution) that their minds only know how to think or function according to their own bottled up condition. This is why they attribute unto the other phenomena (that is, devolution, destruction, decadence and degeneration) the qualification of Evolution, Development and Progress.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in The Mind

Stone Age people and cultures are neither from the beginning nor from the end of the world. These Stone Age people are only the declination and degeneration of very wealthy ancient civilizations. This is demonstrated by the remains of prehistoric cultures, also by the data of comparative philology which shows the astonishing psychological wealth of archaic languages and the irrefutable ancient documents of Art and Literature.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Not all of the isolated villages of this oh so boasted about modern civilization are savages. To reject this present civilized barbarism is not a sign of savagery. However, this does not mean that isolated villages in a state of complete savagery do not exist. The truly Savage or Semi-Savage villages found by modern explorers are without a doubt, degenerated descendants of extraordinarily cultured people who existed before the Stone Age.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

None of the truly primitive villages found by explorers have shown any sign of evolution; on the contrary, in all of the cases without exception, the unmistakable signs of degeneration and devolution have been observed.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

All of the Savage or Semi-Savage villages have or preserve legends and traditions from a Golden Age or from a Heroic Epoch. Indeed these legends and traditions talk about their own past or their own ancient civilizations.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

This is a very Devolving Lemurian Race. This is a Lilliputian and Jinn Race of Cimmerian Myths, authentic Nibelungs. Scientists of today are beginning to study indelible prints of these human-ants that came from their (the Lilliputian) galleries and that have even been found on rupestrian paintings.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The so-called European primitive races of the Stone Age (such as the Cro-Magnon that lived in the caverns of the Earth) were formerly very beautiful but the degenerative descending cyclical impulse acted terribly on those races of Atlantean origin. Finally the Palaeolithic man left his position to his successor, disappearing almost completely from the scene.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Inside any evolving process there exists a degenerative, devolving process. The Law of Evolution and its twin sister the Law of Devolution work in a synchronized and harmonious way within all of creation.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Laws of Evolution and Devolution constitute the mechanical axle of Nature.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

We, the Gnostics, do not deny the Law of Evolution; this Law exists. However, to assign mistaken and false factors and principles onto this law is wrong.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Intimate Self-realization of the Human Being is not the outcome of any Mechanization. The law of Evolution and the Law of Devolution are Mechanical Laws. The Intimate Self-realization of the Human Being is the outcome of tremendous selfcognitive super-efforts made by oneself and within oneself, here and now. To deny the Law of Evolution would be an absurdity. Nonetheless, to attribute to this Law factors that it does not have, is stupidity.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in Laziness

Evolution exists in any creative process, for instance, in the seed that dies so that the stalk must sprout, in the creature that is gestated within the maternal womb and is born. Evolution exists within the plants that bloom.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Yet, Devolution exists in any destructive process; for example, the tree that withers and which eventually becomes a pile of wood; the plant that grows old and dies. Devolution exists in the elder who agonizes and finally inhales his last breath.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Everything that exists in creation evolves until a certain point perfectly defined by Nature. Thereafter, it devolves until returning to the point of original departure. Therefore, no single living being can Self-Realize or attain Liberation through the Mechanical Law of Evolution.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in The Mechanical Man

Right now, as much in the oriental as in the occidental world, many philosophical doctrines based on the dogma of evolution are being disseminated. Evolution and involution are mechanical forces that simultaneously proceed in all nature. We do not deny the reality of these two torces; we explain them.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

Nobody can deny the creative and destructive processes, evolution ary and involutionary, generative and degenerative. What occurs is that things are attributed to the mechanical force of evolution that it does not have. Neither evolution nor involution can liberate any one. This idea that with evolution all will achieve liberation, the goal, is a fantasy of deluded people. Jesus the Christ spoke clearly and never promised salvation to everyone. The Great Master emphasises the tremendous and terrible difficulty implied by the struggle to enter the Sanctum Regnum, the Kingdom of magic and esotericism.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in The Mechanical Man

Here we are not dealing with a matter of believing or disbelieving, of considering oneself chosen, or of belonging to such and such a sect. This question of salvation is very serious. One must work with the Grain, with the sexual seed. From nothing comes nothing. It is necessary to work with the Grain. From the Grain itself an effort is required, a total revolution. Only from the sexual Grain is the Inter nal Angel born. Only the Internal Angel is admitted into the Kingdom of esotericism. Maithuna, Sexual Yoga, Sexual Magic is imperative. The forces of involution and evolution are simply mechanical forces; forces which liberate no one, which save no one. That is all.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

Many organisms are the result of involution, arid many, of evolution. The indigenous and anthropophagous races are not evolving; really they are undergoing involution. They are the degenerated products of powerful civilisations that preceded them in the course of history. All these tribes say that they descend from Gods, Demi-Gods, Titans etc. All these races conserve traditions that tell of the wonders of their glorious pasts. The lizard is a degenerated crocodile. Before man, the archaic ancestors of ants and bees were Titans. The humanity of today is a degenerated product of preceding races, as the secondary sexual characteristics of the people show. Manly women who fly aeroplanes and fight wars are infrasexuals, as are effeminate men who have their hair permed and their nails painted in beauty salons.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

Those authors who consider this to be evolution, the return to divine hermaphrodism etc., are mistaken. The authentic hermaphrodite is not of intermediate sex. The hermaphrodite of the submerged continent of Lemuria was complete, having both sexes totally developed and evolved. They were not infrasexuals. They were not of intermediate sex. Today it is only possible to find the divine hermaphrodite in the Spirit and Soul that is fused and perfect. The cornietely feminine Soul and the completely masculine Spirit are fused in initiation. An Angel is a divine hermaphrodite. No Angel is of intermediate sex. It is necessary to place ourselves upon the Path of the Revolution of Consciousness. This path departs from the laws of evolution and involution. Really this is the straight, narrow and difficult path, of which the Great Kabir Jesus spoke.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in The Human Soul, The Words He Uses

It is clear that upon arriving at this part of our present chapter, the fanatics of the dogma of Evolution will launch against us all their defamatory dribble and will protest saying, “The Ego cannot retrogress, everything evolves, everything should reach perfection, etc., etc., etc.”

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Those fanatics ignore that the Ego is a sum of small animal I and that like attracts like. Those fanatics ignore that the Ego does not have anything that is divine; it is a sum of animal entities that the Law of Evolution will never be able to take to perfection. The animal entities have the full right to enter animal wombs of dogs, horses, pigs, etc., etc., etc., and that cannot be prohibited by the fanatics of the dogma of evolution, even if they yell, curse, and fume.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Return and Reincarnation

Unfortunately, those who have become stuck in the dogma of evolution, are no longer capable of comprehending the inf5nite destructive and decadent processes of everything that is, of everything that has been and of everything that shall be.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

To think that time means progress is absurd; unfortunately, the “learned ignoramuses” continue to be bottled up in the “Dogma of Evolution...”

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975

People think that the growth and development of the Essence always occurs in a continuous way, according to the mechanics of evolution, but Universal Gnosticism teaches clearly that this does not occur in such a manner.

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975

But, let us get to the bottom of this matter. What is the foundation of such schools? The Dogma of Evolution. Where did such touted dogma come from? From a Mr. Darwin.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

We cannot walk on the path of the kalkian personality; we cannot accept those false dogmas such as Evolution; such as that of believing that all humanoids are perfect, complete Men with their existential bodies; such as fearing the igneous Serpent of our magical powers and the lived experience, etc. We prefer instead to follow the path of authentic Wisdom, the path of the Tantras, that of the dissolution of the ego and that of the recognition of our own misery and incapacity. We prefer to recognize that we are nothing, that we are only miserable worms in the mud. We are concerned, yes, to work in ourselves, upon ourselves. We want the dissolution of our “myself’, of the “oneself’. We use the intelligent power of the Creative Energy. We work in the Forge of the Cyclops which frightens pseudo-esoterists and pseudo-occultists so much. We are, therefore, on a different, one hundred percent revolutionary path, and which nonetheless, has a frightening antiquity which is lost in the unbearable night of all ages.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

Now, if we base ourselves on the dogma of evolution, obviously, this dogma bottles us up, stagnates us, because it is not through the mechanical evolution of Nature that we are all going to reach to the final liberation, this is absurd! If mechanical evolution were to take us to Liberation, what need would we have to rack our brains to understand all these mysteries?

The Fifth Gospel Practical Solutions Against Collective Hypnotism Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1976 also in The Mechanical Man

After finding out that evolution would take us, well then let it take us! What need do we have of making efforts then? For what, with what purpose? We would simply live a profane life like everyone, without any worries of any kind.

The Fifth Gospel Practical Solutions Against Collective Hypnotism Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1976

But it is not true. Evolution is just one of the laws of Nature, the other is involution: two laws which process themselves in a coordinated way and they work in the same bosom, serving as an axis to all this great machinery of Nature.

The Fifth Gospel Practical Solutions Against Collective Hypnotism Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1976

Then if evolution has to take us to perfection, then why worry about doing anything special, any effort, if we all have to get there? Better to keep dancing, to continue drinking our drinks, smoking our good cigars, fornicating and loving life! In the end, someday we will get there.

The Fifth Gospel Practical Solutions Against Collective Hypnotism Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1976

Master: Well, by that path, humanity has not gotten there; for millions of years we have been in the same situation, and are we there yet? Every day, humanity is getting worse; now it is in a horrifying degenerating state. Is this evolution, is this perfection? What is this? The facts are completely contra-dicting those doctrines, they are against the dogma of evolution.

The Fifth Gospel Practical Solutions Against Collective Hypnotism Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1976

There is evolution in the world that emerges from the chaos with thriving and active life. There is involution on the planet that becomes decrepit and, eventually, becomes a new moon.

The Fifth Gospel Exhortations to the Gnostic Youth

We do not deny the law of evolution, but we understand that neither it nor its twin sister, involution, could take us to the Intimate Self-Realization of the Being. When we make a dogma out of the law of evolution, we become retardant and useless creatures. Thus, I invite you to the complete revision of principles.

The Fifth Gospel Urgency of the Inner Revolution Message directed to the Gnostic youth – Mexico City – 1975

The mechanical evolution of Nature saves nobody; time saves nobody. It is necessary to be born, and this question of being born is and will always be an absolutely sexual problem. All those who want to be born must work with the sap of life contained in the two sacred vases that the nude woman of Arcanum 17 holds in her hands.

Esoteric Course of Kabbalah

In all honesty we inform our disciples that out of the 2 billion people living in the world only a small handful of souls, which can be counted on the fingers of one’s two hands, will serve for the angelic state.

Esoteric Course of Kabbalah

The rest, the great majority is a lost harvest that will sink into the Abyss for an eternity. To be an angel is extremely difficult. Neither time nor the mechanical evolution of Nature can ever turn the human being into an angel. This is a sexual problem.

Esoteric Course of Kabbalah

Those who believe they will achieve Christification in time, via evolution, reincarnating and gaining many experiences, are in fact mistaken. Those who think in this way are deferring the error from century to century, from life to life, and the reality is that in the end they will be lost in the abyss.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in Return and Reincarnation

We the Gnostics do not deny the law of evolution. We only state that this law does not Christifies anyone. The laws of evolution and involution are purely mechanical laws of nature that proceed simultaneously in the entire great laboratory of nature. Many organisms, many species are a product of involution and many other organ isms and species are a product of evolution. The grave problem lies in attributing to evolution aspects, virtues and qualities that it does not possess. Evolution does not Christifies anybody. Whoever wants Christification needs the Revolution of the Consciousness. This is only possible by working with the Grain.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

Be careful of the hypocritical Pharisees who tell you sweet words, but lie. Be careful of those who believe they are wiser than the Christ, affirming that there are many paths, when in truth He only taught one single Path. Be careful of those hypocritical Pharisees who tell you that the Law of Evolution will bring you to the goal.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Know that evolution and its twin sister, involution, are only mechanical laws which cannot self-realise anybody, because self-realisation cannot be the result of mechanics. Be gentle and humble in thought, word and deed, but when it comes to the Truth, be strong in thought, word, and deed.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Mechanical Man

Only thus can you tread upon the path of JOHN, which is the direct path that will take you until the Absolute, beyond human beings and Gods.

Runic Magic, 1969

This direct path is only possible through incessant intimate revolutions.

Runic Magic, 1969

“YON-GRUB”, radical perfection is never the outcome of the evolving mechanics.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

Revolution of the consciousness is another thing. However, this is an unpleasant thing for everybody… You know this…

My Return to Tibet, 1969

We, all of the human bipeds are more or less demons. To stop being demons, to convert ourselves into something different, distinct, is something that corresponds to the Mysteries. Nevertheless, why would something be given to people that they do not want, if they, the multitudes are happy with the way they are, if they do not wish to be different? Therefore, neither the evolving mechanics, nor even the twilight of the Mahamanvantara could compel them to be distinct.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

It would be an absurdity to even suppose for a moment that the change in depth, the authentic interior Self-Realisation could be the outcome of an involuntary and mechanical way, as the fanatics of the Dogma of Evolution think.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

It is not a matter of evolving, like the fanatics of the dogma of evolution pretend. Obviously, the undesirable psychic elements that we carry within our interior never deserve any type of evolution.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

Those who live in the region of the Left devolve within the womb of the world.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

The pseudo-esoterist and pseudo-occultists of this Valley of Tears, who are bottled up within the dogma of evolution, stupidly believe that they can liberate themselves without dissolving the ego.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

The fanatics of the dogma of evolution devolve through the path of the left hand. The path that leads to the Abyss is paved with good intentions.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

Seif-aggrandisement is the biggest error that many modem pseudo-esotericists and pseudo occultists have. They love themselves so much, and they yearn for the evolution of the misery they carry within. They want to move on, and long for the extension of that, which in no way deserves either perfection or perpetuation.

The Secret Doctrine of Anahuac, 1974

When we have the “evolution dogma” as the foundation of our most cherished yearnings, our point of departure is false.

The Secret Doctrine of Anahuac, 1974

There is not true charity in thousands of aspirants, they presume of being charitable, but when we call on them to struggle for a new social order, they flee terrified or they justify themselves saying that the Law of Karma and Evolution will resolve everything.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Therefore, the majority of souls in our terrestrial evolution are lost. The black path, filled with vices and pleasures, was the easier and more accessible path for all of them. The human evolution has failed! Only a handful of souls will be united with their Intimate and will enter into the angelical kingdom.

The Revolution of Beelzebub, 1950

With the experiences of life these egos become increasingly more complicated and difficult. The simple man of the past few million years, through millions of lives and deaths, is now the man in the cabaret, the man of the atomic and hydrogen bombs. Is that perfection? Is this sanctification? That is the evolution of the ego, my dear brothers. The evolution of life is only a process of the complication of the ‘I’.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Return and Reincarnation

We need a total revolution. Let us go so far as to put a baby in front of an old man and compare them. Who is more perfect? The child or the old man? As we go through the distinct stages of life we gain much experience that fills us with astuteness, malice and distrust, etc, etc. The child is transformed into the old man: malicious, greedy, astute, perverse and mistrusting: that is evolution.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Hatred

Dearly beloved, you know that evolution is a process that brings complication to life. We need total revolution. When we decapitate and dissolve the self, then there is total revolution. When the ego dissolves, we reach the Venustic Initiation.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

In the night of the centuries, the “I” was simple, but throughout the centuries, it became increasingly complicated and difficult. Some call this complication process, evolution and progress. In reality, this is not evolution but rather the complication and strengthening of that horrible larva called the “I”. The “I” suffers innumerable and subtle transformations; sometimes it looks like a demon, sometimes like a child-God.

The Greater Mysteries, 1956

The “I” does not evolve; it becomes complicated in every incarnation. Many call this process evolution. The simple people of thousands of years ago are the complicated and difficult people of this day and age. Evolution is performed within the consciousness of the mineral when this one awakens within the plant; the consciousness of the plant evolves when this one awakens within the animal; and the consciousness of the animal evolves when this one awakens within the human. ‘When the “I” dies totally in ourselves, then we are born within the Absolute. Nevertheless, before that, Satan offers us kingdoms and paradises. Those who yield convert themselves into corpses, into his slaves, and postpone throughout many incarnations their entrance within the ineffable joy of the Absolute.

Aztec Christic Magic, 1973

When this ray (the Spirit) incarnated for the first time into a savage and primitive human body, this ray awoke as a human being and had Self-consciousness of its own happiness. This ray could have returned towards its own star which guides its interior. But, disgracefully, within the profound bosom of the voracious and dense jungle, wild desire gave birth to the “I’.

The Aquarian Message, 1960 also in Return and Reincarnation

This is the way in which the instinctive forces of nature trapped the innocent mind of the human being. So, the false mirage of desire emerged and the “I” continued reincarnating in order to satisfy its desires. Thus, we remained submitted to the Law of evolution and karma.

The Aquarian Message, 1960 also in Return and Reincarnation

Experiences and pain complicated the ‘I”, for evolution is nothing more than a process of the complication of energy.

The Aquarian Message, 1960

252. The human beings have been evolving through the wheels of birth and death for more than eighteen million years.

Igneous Rose, 1954 also in Return and Reincarnation

A dog has a better sense of smell than we do; with its sense of smell it can follow the footsteps of its master. The eagle can perceive a lizard from thousands of meters high and dive from above to catch it. There are animal creatures whose spiritual accomplishments, whose accomplishments for the Being, are better than ours; this is the harsh reality of the facts. So, the time has come –it is in our interest to know– that we march along the path of involution, of degeneration.

The Fifth Gospel The Wonders of Awakened Consciousness Public Lecture – 1975

If we study the Genesis, at the beginning we find beauty, the earthly paradise, etc., and then we see how mankind has kept involuting, degenerating, more, and more, and more.

The Fifth Gospel The Reality and Fantasy of our Psychology Public Lecture – 1976

This present century with its magnificence, wars, prostitution, world-wide sodomy, sexual degeneration, drugs, alcohol, exorbitant cruelty, extreme perversion, monstrosity etc., is the mirror in which we must see ourselves; there does not exist a good enough reason to boast of having reached a superior stage of development.

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975

The poor intellectual animal, mistakenly called man, can develop all his possibilities if he so wishes. However, his possibilities can also be left without any development and can even be totally lost. Many pseudo-occultists and pseudoesotericists mistakenly suppose that such possibilities can be developed by means of the wise Law of Evolution, but that concept is totally false, because no mechanical thing can develop all our latent possibilities.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The Intimate Self-Realisation of man is never the product of something mechanical. It is rather the result of conscious work done by ourselves and within ourselves, with supreme patience and pain. Only by virtue of successive and continuous self-conscious works can we develop within ourselves all our hidden possibilities.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The mechanical evolution of the intellectual animal, mistakenly called man, is necessary for nature up to a certain well defined point. Beyond this point, the mechanical evolution of the human biped becomes not only unnecessary for nature, but is also harmful to it. The evolutive and involutive processes of humanity correspond to the periods of evolution and involution of the planets in outer space.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Mechanical Man

Planets originate changes at the periphery of the intellectual animal that are at times evolutive and at times involutive. Civilizations fall, and new ones rise, but the soul, the essence, remains the same.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

This sorrowful human anthill lives upon the surface of the earth in order to fulfill the purposes and necessities of nature. The earth does not waste anything, because it wants to live, and it utilizes the products of evolution just as much as the products of involution, even though in either case the purposes are totally different.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The involutive construction that takes place in the interior of the planet earth could not exist without the activity of the men with the hair of goats that enter into the underworld. Behind the whole vital mechanism of the world, behind all of the chemical processes that construct hard rock, are found the collective psyches of the men with the hair of goats. The tenebrous ones give physical durability to iron, flint and granite. If by some procedure we were able to extract from the Infernos (Mineral Kingdom) all the tenebrous ones that live there, hard rock would lose its consistency, its hardness, and it would become elastic, malleable, and useless. The end of the Mineral Kingdom would then be an inevitable fact.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Humanity is part of the organic life on earth; it is the nourishment of the earth. If all of humanity were to self-realise, this would be fatal for the Mineral Kingdom. Nature is opposed to the Intimate Self-Realisation of man, because it is contrary to its own interests. What is normal, natural is that the Mineral Kingdom swallows humanity.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The revolution of the consciousness is the Fifth Gospel. We urgently need a radical change that is complete and definitive, and this is only possible by means of the revolution of the consciousness. Intimate Self-Realisation is only possible for isolated individuals, with the help of knowledge and adequate methods. Such intimate revolution can occur only inside of the individual, and this is in fact contrary to the interests of nature. The development of all the hidden possibilities of the intellectual animal is not necessary, save only and exclusively for oneself. The development of such individual possibilities interests neither nature nor anyone. The gravest thing about all this is to know that no one has the obligation to help the revolutionary individual; no one has the very lofty intention of helping a revolutionary of this kind. He is completely alone, and if a revolutionary Master resolves to guide us, it is truly because one is very fortunate.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Neither mechanical nor obligatory Self-Realisation exists. The Intimate Self-Realisation of man is the result of conscious battle. Nature does not need the Intimate Self-Realisation of the human being; she does not want it; she detests it and fights against it with all her best weapons. Intimate Self-Realisation can only be an urgent necessity for the revolutionary man when he realises his horrible situation and the abominable fate that awaits him, which is that of being voraciously devoured by the Mineral Kingdom.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Mechanical Man

The revolution of the consciousness is only possible in the event of gaining, conquering our own latent possibilities, our own hidden treasures. If the entire human species were to want to obtain that which rightfully belongs to it, Intimate SelfRealisation would become impossible, because what is possible for the revolutionary individual is impossible for the masses. The advantage that the separate revolutionary has is that he is truly very little, and for the purposes of Great Nature, the existence of one less or one more machine has not the least importance. If one microscopic cell from our body revolts against us this has not the least importance, but if all the cells of our body revolt against us, then yes, the matter is grave and we go to the doctor to fight against this revolution with all the weapons of science. Exactly the same thing happens for the isolated individual, he is too small to influence all the life of the planetary organism on which we live, move, and have our Being.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Mechanical Man

Those who affirm that all human beings will sooner or later arrive at Intimate Self-Realisation by means of the evolution of nature are tremendous liars, jokesters, and deceivers. Because there has never been and there will never be a mechanical SelfRealisation. Intimate Self-Realisation is the revolution of the consciousness, and the consciousness could never unconsciously revolutionize itself. The revolution of man is the revolution of his willpower, and so this could never be a mechanical, involuntary revolution. Intimate Self-Realisation is the result of supreme and voluntary self-efforts that are perfectly self-conscious. Intimate Self-Realisation demands tremendous individual super-efforts, and these are only possible through the revolution of the consciousness.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Mechanical Man

The Divine Rabbi of Galilee never said that the Law of Evolution would take all human beings to perfection. Jesus, in the four Gospels, places emphasis on the difficulty of entering the Kingdom.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Jesus Christ never said that the Law of Evolution would lead all human beings to the final goal.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Some pseudo-esotericists and pseudo-occultists say that one reaches God through many paths. This is really a sophism with which they always want to justify their own errors. The Great Hierophant Jesus Christ only pointed out a single door and a single path: “Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

The Angel, situated mentally in the future Earth of the Fifth Round, related in opera the history of terrestrial evolution. He mentioned all the prophets that have been sent to the Earth. He narrated with a melodious voice the history of the seven races of the world, the apocalypse of the present fifth race, the continents that existed in the past and their general destruction, the great cataclysms of the Earth, the great wars, the superhuman efforts that had been made by the great Avatars to save humanity, the crucifixion of the Martyr of Golgotha etc., etc. Then he lamented with pain the few that had been saved. Only a few had managed to be born as Angels. The rest, the great majority of human beings, were swallowed by the abyss. Of the billions of Souls that entered evolution and involution on the planet Earth, only a handful of creatures were fit for the Angelic state. “Because many are called, but few are chosen.”

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

When the Angel reached this part of his ineffable opera I felt profoundly moved and amazed. Frankly, I had believed that the case of only a few being saved and the great majority being lost could only apply to the Earth, and in the past Mahàmanvantaras to the Earth-Moon, but that in the rest of the worlds things were different. The Angel pointed out this error when he said, “And this that has happened on the Earth will always be repeated in all the worlds of infinite space.” When the Angel finished his ineffable song I under stood why so many people had attended my meetings, and why, of the many who began only a few remained with me. Now I am disposed to continue with the few. I am no longer interested in having a room full of people. Really, many are they who begin, but few who arrive. The Perfect Matrimony is the Path of the Razor’s Edge. To affiliate oneself with a school, lodge, order etc., is something very easy. To study yoga, Hermeticism, philosophy, astrology is very beautiful and easy; but to be born as an Angel is terribly difficult.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

The intellectual animal is a seed that could develop and give rise to the man. Unfortunately, the majority of those seeds are lost, rare is the seed that germinates. Millions of human beings –or humanoids, better said– constantly enter the submerged involution of the Infernal Worlds. Very rare is the intellectual animal that truly longs for the intimate self-realization and that sacrifices himself for it. When one has reached self-realization, when one has formed the Golden Embryo, one is truly a man in the most complete sense of the word.

The Fifth Gospel Gnostic Meaning of the Golden Embryo Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1971

The materialist partisans of Darwinism point out the similarities of all animals in the embryonic state, including the human being. This they do in order to prove that the more complex and superior species have emerged by evolution and transformation from the more simple and inferior species. Nonetheless, we, the Gnostics, consider that the similarities of the animals in their embryonic state, including the human being, are revealing to satiety two things: first, the unity of life, second, an original genetic seed.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

Those who affirm that the human being comes from the ape are totally mistaken. Indeed, it is the ape that came from the human being. The transformation of the species and the Darwinist theory of evolution are false. No one has ever seen a new species born; no one has ever seen a human being born from a family of apes.

Aztec Christic Magic, 1973

Answer: Distinguished frater, observe in detail all the phenomena of nature and you will have the answer. Many believe that the apes, monkeys, orangutans, gorillas, etc. are of an evolving type; some even suppose that man came from monkey, but such a concept collapses noisily when we observe the customs of these animal species. Place an ape in a laboratory and observe what happens.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Unquestionably the diverse ape families are involutions that descend from the intellectual humanoid.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The humanoid does not come from the ape; the truth is that the reverse is true; the apes are involuting, degenerating humanoids.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

It is clear that this type of elemental is found in a clearly involutive process. Analogous states of involution can be discovered in plants and minerals.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Louis Pasteur, armrest for the lance, lunged himself against the dogma of evolution when he ridiculed Jules Michelet, who in an absurd way described life as originating within a drop of maritime water, very rich in nitrogen and a little mucosity or fecundating jelly. He stated that possibly, at the end of 10,000 years, it would have evolved to the dignity of an insect, and afterwards, during the period of 100,000 of years, to that of an ape and a human being. Louis Pasteur wisely invalidated the theory of spontaneous generation when he stated: “No, presently, we do not know of any circumstance in which we can affirm that microscopic creatures have undergone transformation or putrefaction in such a way, without germs or predecessors similar to them, as to spontaneously generate new organisms within themselves. Therefore, all of those who pretend to contradict this reality are nothing less than toys from illusions, victims of wrongly performed experiments filled with errors which they cannot explain or avoid.”

My Return to Tibet, 1969

When Louis Pasteur dissipated into cosmic dust the theory of spontaneous generation, he also annulled the foundation of Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and transformation. Life in itself, including the most lower and elemental life, like in a bacteria, indeed, can only emerge from another life.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

During the Cosmic Day, the living germs are submitted to the laws of evolution and involution, rhythm, vibration, numbers, measurement and weight.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

Any germinal elemental specimen can and must evolve and develop during its cycle of particular activity.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

It is indubitable and even axiomatic that when the cycle of activity of any model or germinal type is finished, then, it devolves and returns towards its original and primeval state. Example: the polyps from flowers (which presently in their devolution are just simple, devolving micro-organisms) were in the preceding Round, frightful giants armed with terrible tentacles, very similar to those of maritime octopuses.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

The enormous antediluvian monsters that in a fore time were desolating cyclopean cities, leaving everywhere their indelible print of terror and death, still (and even if this seems incredible) exist in this present century. Presently, they are simple microbes which are suspended in the atmosphere.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

In a world of the future Mahamanvantara, those germs of life inevitably will be developed. But, what can we say about this race of intellectual animals, about these three-brained or threecentred bipeds? Why would this specimen, sample or beastly reasoning model be an exception to this majestic rule? It is obvious that the germs of this biped mistakenly called human being started their multiple evolving processes from the very dawn of the Mahamanvantara.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

Did you ever hear about the Protoplasmatic Root Race? Without a doubt, it is shown in complete meridian clarity that this aforesaid gigantic generation, beyond time and distance, was indeed the culmination of a long series of evolving processes, which had their scenario within the superior dimensions of Nature.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

It is known that the sub-following generations of human species, descendants from those enormous archaic giants, have come reversely advancing since ancient times, devolving towards their primeval germinal state.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

Therefore, in the dusk of this terrestrial life, prior to those moments in which the earth will have converted itself into a new moon, the intellectual animal species will have returned to its germinal state.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

It is obvious that after the death of this physical world, the human germs will continue devolving within the superior dimensions of Nature, until returning to their elemental, atomic, original state.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

These elemental germs evolve and are developed wherever they find vital, specific conditions. Devolving ages come after any evolving cycle. Thus, the species return towards their primeval, germinal state.

My Return to Tibet, 1969 also in Elemental Magic

The evolution and devolution of each species in particular demands precise vital conditions. All of the living species which had evolved and devolved on the planet Earth have repeated identical processes on other planets.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

Many centuries before the first Root-Race appeared upon the face of the earth, those NON HUMAN creatures which today are named ants and bees were living on this world. These creatures knew in depth good from evil and evil from good. Certainly, and in the name of truth, I have to say that they were old souls. They had evolved greatly, but never in life had they entered onto the path of the Revolution of the Consciousness..

Runic Magic, 1969

It is obvious that evolution can never conduce anyone to the Intimate Self-Realization. It is normal that every evolution is inevitably followed by an involution. Every rising is followed by a setting, every ascension is followed by a descent.

Runic Magic, 1969

Thus, this is what the ants and bees are, they are involutioning, retarded and regressive creatures.

Runic Magic, 1969

The Fourth Root Race or Atlantean Race notably evolved until its objective. Then subsequently, it precipitated itself throughout the devolving descendent path. It is ostensible that always a descent occurs after every ascent, an ascension is always followed by a descent. When the continent that was known with the name of Atlantis submerged within the Atlantic ocean, some survivors continued to exist in present lands, as the studies of palaeontology have already started to suspect.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

This Lunar Race, this Perverse Adamic Race, is entering into the Infernal Devolution through successive cataclysms.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

So, in these conditions, after having eliminated individual initiative and religious rights, these intellectual animals precipitated themselves downwards into the path of devolution and degeneration.

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975

Yet, if the Sun fails in its experiment, then it loses all interest for such a race. Thus, such a race is left condemned to destruction and devolution.

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975

Hence, this contemporary race has condemned itself towards devolution and degeneration, since instead of becoming independent of the lunar influence it has unquestionably lost all interest for the solar intelligence.

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975

Those who hope to reach the solar state through the mechanics of evolution fool themselves and condemn themselves, in fact, to a devolving degeneration.

Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology, 1975

This event will be repeated in accordance with the Law of Reoccurrence. The entrance of this present humanity into the submerged involution of this planetary organism on which we live becomes evident.

Runic Magic, 1969 also in The Law of Recurrence

In this epoch of racial devolution, the multitudes of the Left are devolving within the submerged spheres of Lilith and Nahemah.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

Humanity frightfully devolves in this instant of mundane crises and total degeneration. This devolving terrestrial humanity is entering into the submerged mineral kingdom in surges.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

Your implacable quench uselessly plots mad attacks, scorning the heavens. You have yet to conquer immortality. Therefore, the submerged devolution within the Infernal Worlds awaits you.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

It is written that every human being is assigned one hundred and eight lives to become self-realized. Time is running out for many persons. Whoever does not attain selfrealization within his allotted time ceases to be born, to enter the Infernal Worlds. In support of the Law of Involution or retrogression comes the Bhagavad Gita, saying, “They, the evil, cruel and ungrateful, I cast them perpetually into the Asuric (demoniac) wombs, in order for them to be born in these worlds” (infernal worlds).

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Return and Reincarnation

The anteroom of the Infernal Worlds is the involutive descent into bodies more and more inferior each time, in accordance with the Law of Involution.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Those who descend through the spiral of life fall into demonic wombs during several lives before entering the Infernal Worlds of Nature, situated according to Dante within the interior of the terrestrial organism.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Return and Reincarnation

It is clear that the person who does not take advantage of those one hundred and eight lives, joins the Involution of the Infernal Worlds.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Return and Reincarnation

Infernal Involution is a fall backwards, towards the past, passing through all the animal, vegetable and mineral states, through frightful suffering.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Return and Reincarnation

The last stage of the Infernal Involution is the fossil state, after which follows the disintegration of the lost ones.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

The only thing that is saved from all of that tragedy, the only thing that does not disintegrate is the Essence, the Buddhata, that fraction of Human Soul that the intellectual animal carries within his lunar bodies.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Involution in the Infernal Worlds precisely has as objective the liberation of the Buddhata, the Human Soul, in order for it to reinitiate its Evolutive ascent from the original chaos through the mineral, vegetable and animal rungs, until it reaches the level of intellectual animal mistakenly called man.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

It is lamentable that so many souls relapse, and return again and again to the Infernal Worlds.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in Return and Reincarnation

The Spiral Line is the line of life and each life is either repeated in more elevated, evolutive spirals, or in lower, involutive spirals.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967 also in The Law of Recurrence

In a resolved and definitive manner, many persons descend from life to life on the involutive spiral line, until finally entering the Infernal Worlds.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

On our very intriguing planet there also exist certain types of people who have an increasing tendency towards degeneration. They resolutely march upon the Descending Spiral Path; these are the drunkards, suicides, homosexuals, prostitutes, drug addicts, thieves, assassins, etc. In each life, these types of people repeat, over and over again (in a descending manner), the same crimes. Thus, finally, they enter into the Infernal Worlds. On the other hand, in an apparently brilliant contrast to the previously mentioned descending life, (yet, in a position equally abominable) we find upper class people, such as the great celebrities who worship the Great Harlot; millionaires, the multimillionaires and the perverse scientists who invent destructive weapons. Likewise, we find the tenebrous henchmen of the Dialectic Materialism who take from humanity their Eternal Values. Sports fanatics and the great boxing contenders are there as well. Vain record breakers and comedians (who love to play with their monster of one thousand faces) exist there too. Famous movie stars who justify all of their adulteries with innumerable matrimonies and divorces also abide there. Here too can we find the degenerated artists of this New Age: painters, rock ‘n’ roll bands, dancers and singers (of rap, pop, Latin, etc.) Likewise we find the founders of harmful sects, the writers of pornographic literature, etc. All types of skeptical people are found here as well, etc.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

All types of celebrities are hypnotized by triumph; this is precisely their great danger. They ignore that they are going down on a descending spiral. Thus, they enter into the Infernal Worlds inebriated by triumph.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in The Law of Recurrence

So, the Law of Recurrence is the cause for the devolution of all of these types of people in the Infernal Worlds. Within the Abyss they have to repeat (in a devolving manner) all of the animal, plant and mineral processes (which, in times of yore, they had already passed through yet in an evolving manner).

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in Return and Reincarnation, The Law of Recurrence, The Words He Uses

Beloved friends, we are once again gathered here in this place, to talk in a detailed manner, about the different causes which lead intellectual humanoids down the descending, involuting path toward the infernal regions.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Unquestionably, millions of descending, involuting creatures are crossing Acheron to enter Hades in this instant.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Is when the Being begins to constitute part of the mineral kingdom, after a great length of time evolves to the vegetable kingdom, and later over a period of eternities, rises to the human state where it is assigned 108 lives. If at the end of the 108 lives it has not SelfRealised, involution commences in the submerged kingdoms of the planet Earth. The animaloid, vegetabloid and mineraloid states are recapitulated. In the profundities of the abyss, in the Atomic Infernos of nature, the Essence or Buddhata is purified, is liber ated by the disintegration of the ego. And so, the Essence freed after eternities ascends, beginning once again in the mineral kingdom, then the vegetable, the animal, until rising to the human state previously lost. This is the Law of Transmigration of Souls.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978 also in Return and Reincarnation

Only by awakening consciousness will we know if we are already involuting and returning to begin again. Eveiything to do with Return and Transmigration is of a lunar nature; only Reincarnation is Solar.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978 also in Return and Reincarnation

Answer: Friend and gentleman who asks that question, we can practice much good in life and we can be sure that good deeds will always be paid back with increases; the divine never stays with anything, it always pays back each person according to his deeds. With patience I beg you to pay attention, to follow the course of this dissertation. Hear me, listen to me: Whomever has exhausted his cycle of 108 existences enters submerged involution in the infernal worlds if he has not achieved the intimate self-realization of the Being.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation, The Law of Karma

There is much virtue in scoundrels and there is much evil in the virtuous; once the cycle of 108 existences that is assigned to every soul on the face of the Earth concludes, it is unquestionable that one descends with the involutive wave, even when one has beautiful virtues.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

Everyone who enters the kingdom of the rational homunculi is assigned 108 existences, as we have already stated to satiety, but he who fails, he who does not achieve inner selfrealization within the cycle of existences that are assigned to him, ceases to return or reincorporate in organisms of humanoids and precipitates himself, involuting within the entrails of the earth, in the infradimensions of nature.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

Through our investigations of an esoteric type, we have been able to verify with complete clarity what the involutive processes are.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

It is clear that it is up to us to undo what has been done and to descend the stairs upon which we had previously ascended.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

After recapitulating past humanoid experiences in the Avernus, we should repeat animallike and vegetable-like states before the total fossilitation and second death. I remember a very interesting case. On a certain occasion I warned a lady of the abyss with the following: “On the involutive path that you are on, you will have to disintegrate in the ninth sphere, become cosmic dust, this is the second death.” That lady answered me, “I do not ignore it, we know this and it is precisely what we want.”

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

If we have exhausted the diverse processes of the h obviously we should go up or down. Some ascend and others fail into submerged involution.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in The Law of Recurrence

Unquestionably, it is obvious that those who fail during their cycle of manifestation, those who do not achieve self realization within the number of assigned existences, descend within the submerged mineral kingdom, the Hindu Avitchi, the Greek Tartarus, the Roman Avernus. it is plain and evident that involution within the entrails of the planet in which we live is terribly painful To recapitulate animal-like, vegetable-like and mineraloid states, in a frankly degenerating manner, is certainly not very pleasant.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

There are one hundred and eight existences for each soul. If in one hundred and eight existences we are not capable of making a masterpiece out of our life, if in one hundred and eight existences we are not capable of disintegrating all that plurality of the Ego, then we must involute within the entrails of the Earth, involuting incessantly until the “I” becomes ash, cosmic dust.

The Fifth Gospel The Organization of our Inner World Public Lecture – 1975 also in Return and Reincarnation

The Essence that exists within, can never die, it is eternal. But the plurality of the “I” will have to involute within the entrails of the world. Nature will have to disintegrate the Ego; Nature will have to do for us what we have not been capable to do for ourselves. Nature will have to free the Essence so that it comes out into the sunlight, so that it can evolve again from stone to man. And when one reconquers the human state that was once lost, he is assigned another new cycle of existences.

The Fifth Gospel The Organization of our Inner World Public Lecture – 1975 also in Return and Reincarnation

It is not superfluous to tell you, in the name of truth, that we, each one of us here, are always assigned one hundred and eight existences. If during those one hundred and eight lives we do not dissolve the “I”, if during those one hundred and eight existences we do not awaken, then we are no longer given a physical body and, subsequently, we enter the submerged involution of the Infernal Worlds.

The Fifth Gospel The Reality and Fantasy of our Psychology Public Lecture – 1976 also in Awakening, Return and Reincarnation

The souls involute within the Infernal Worlds. If during life we were not capable of reducing the Ego, the “I”, the Myself, the Oneself to dust, after death, at the end of the one hundred and eight existences, we enter into the entrails of the Earth, into the infra-dimensions of nature and the cosmos. There, within the subterranean world, we have to suffer the unspeakable; there we will have to involute in time until the centrifugal forces disintegrate the Myself, until they reduce the Ego to dust.

The Fifth Gospel The Reality and Fantasy of our Psychology Public Lecture – 1976 also in Return and Reincarnation

Whoever manages to pass through the nine Dantean circles, after the Second Death, emancipates himself. The soul, the pure Essence, emerges on the surface, into the sunlight, to initiate a new evolutionary process which has to start with the mineral, continue in the plant, carry on in the animal, until re-conquering the human state that was once lost. Then the soul is assigned a new cycle of existences: one hundred and eight more lives to self-realize, and if it does not achieve it, the same process repeats.

The Fifth Gospel The Reality and Fantasy of our Psychology Public Lecture – 1976 also in Return and Reincarnation

It is ostensible that when the 108 human lives in each cycle is concluded, then, the time to move downwards into the infernal worlds, into involution, until the Second Death arrives.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983 also in Return and Reincarnation

Following the Second Death, the Essence emerges again to the surface.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

When the Essence has emerged again, then new evolving processes begin which repeat themselves from the lowest step. The lowest step is the mineral kingdom.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

Each time the cycle is repeated through the mineral kingdom, it is performed in a higher spiral, in accordance with the spiral of life.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

In Avitchi there exists the Law of Involution, which makes the tenebrous ones retrocede through the human, animal, vegetable and mineral states. The final result of those who enter Avitchi is the final disintegration.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

In Avitchi those who are lost are involuted in time.

The Book of the Dead, 1965

We can go up or go down, return to the Absolute or descend to the Mineral Kingdom. The souls that enter the Mineral Kingdom are firstly subject to 96 orders of laws, then 192, and in keeping with this pattern they continue involuting within that submerged kingdom; these souls continue to become increasingly complex with a greater and greater number of laws. Those who enter the Mineral Abyss involute, retrogress, passing through the animal, vegetable, and Mineral Kingdoms. When the lost ones arrive at the mineral state, when they become totally fossilised beneath the surface of the earth, then, in fact, they disintegrate and are reduced to dust.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

It is clear that such a melting of the petrified and rigid forms, which have lost the power to develop, involves frightful sufferings and terrible, indescribable bitterness. The crucible of the foundry has as its aim the restoration of the defective psychic product; the crucible aims to return the psychic product to its natural state of original purity, to free it from the lunar bodies after having disintegrated the ‘I’ by means of the submergence of involution. In the crucible of the cosmic foundry the lunar bodies and the ego are reduced to dust. Only by reducing the ego and its lunar bodies to dust can the essence, the soul, the psychic principle be liberated from the Abyss.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Therefore, the descent into the Tenebrous Worlds is a backward trip through the involuting path. It is a downfall into an always increasing density, within obscurity and rigidity. It is a return, a repetition of the animal, plant and mineral states, in short, a return into the Primitive Chaos.

Runic Magic, 1969 also in Return and Reincarnation

The souls of the abyss are liberated with the Second Death. These souls receive the token for their freedom when the ego and the lunar bodies are reduced to dust.

Runic Magic, 1969 also in Return and Reincarnation

Devolution in the Infernal Worlds is a descent into lower states, passing through animal and pseudo-vegetal states and ending in the Mineral Kingdom with the fatal epilogue of the Second Death. Thus, and only thus, can the Failed Souls become liberated and return into the primeval chaos. Thereafter, they reenter into a new evolving ascension passing anew through the Mineral, Plant and Animal Kingdoms towards the human state.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in Return and Reincarnation

Multiple families of plants and animals also exist that receive, transform and transmit Cosmic Rays from the Great Infinite into the interior of our terrestrial organism. The devolving lunar bodies repeat the processes which they had experienced within Nature, yet in a reverted way. They retrospectively revive their entire human, animal, plant and mineral past.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Lost Souls return into the Original Primitive Chaos. Here, they have to ascend anew until finally reaching the human state again; that is, after having repeated the very long and millenarian evolving ascension that processes itself through the Mineral, Plant, Animal and Human Kingdoms.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Devolution is a constant downward fall, each time falling towards the past into denser and denser regions, where only weeping and the gnashing of teeth can be heard.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Lunar Ego (that conjunction of distinct and diverse entities that travel in an independent way through the supra-sensible worlds) is hidden within the Lunar Bodies. The terrible and painful devolution of the pluralized “I” (with their Lunar Protoplasmic Bodies) in the Infernal Worlds is a fall (descending backwards) towards the original primitive chaos.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Devolution descends from the animal, plant and mineral steps. On the last rung of the ladder, the fossilized Lunar Egos are reduced to cosmic dust. This is the Second Death.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

We have been told in an emphatic manner that the original sin is fornication and this is the foundation of the involuting waves in the infernal worlds.

A tell the gentleman that asks this question that he is certainly right. When someone enters into the submerged involution of nature, he descends in time slowly, from circle to circle, standing out very especially in that zone specifically where his worst transgression is found.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Obviously in these submerged regions, we involute frighteningly, until arriving at the ninth circle, located in the heart of the world; there the lost ones disintegrate, they are reduced to cosmic dust.

To descend involuting into the entrails of the buried earth is radically different from the evolving ascent on the surface of the Earth.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The animal-like recapitulation in the abyss is of a degenerative, involutive, descending, painful type.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The vegetable-like recapitulation in the entrails of the Earth is frightening; those who pass through such processes, appear more like shadows that slip away here, there and everywhere in unutterable sufferings. The mineral-like, descending, involutive recapitulation in the entrails of the world in which we live, is more bitter that death itself; the creatures fossilize themselves, they mineralize themselves and slowly disintegrate in torments impossible to explain with words.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The descent to the Infernal Worlds only has as objective the destruction of the Lunar Bodies and the Ego by means of the submerged Involution. It is only by destroying the bottle that the Essence escapes.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

“The darkened souls of TAMAS sink back to lower deeps, loaded with witlessness!” They submerge themselves into the interior of the earth; they enter into the submerged mineral kingdom in order to retrograde by devolving in time; they descend through the animal, plant and mineral steps. Afterwards, they reemerge in the Sun’s light in order to restart a new type of evolving ascent, which has to recommence in the hard rock. Thus, the Glorious Lord took the floor again in order to state the following:

Parsifal Unveiled, 1970 also in Laziness

When the failed Virginal Sparks submerged themselves within the uncreated light of the Abstract Absolute Space, they radically abandoned their tenebrous ex-personalities who violently precipitated themselves throughout the devolving path…

My Return to Tibet, 1969

It is obvious that such sinister ex-personalities or Lucifers continue devolving, going backwards, descending into the infernal worlds. They slowly descend throughout the animal, vegetal and mineral stages.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

The devolving multitudes of the Left enter the Infernal Worlds.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

The involution within the womb of the Earth lasts until the Second Death.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

Obviously, only through the death of the ego is the Liberation of the essence made possible; then the latter resurges, it comes to the planetary surface, to the light of the sun, to begin again a new evolving process within the painful wheel of Samsara.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The re-ascent always takes place going through the mineral, vegetable and animal states until reconquering the human state that was formerly lost.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

It is clear that with reentry to this state, we are once again assigned 108 existences, that if we do not take advantage of them properly, this will lead us on the descending path of return to the Avernus. In any case, dear brothers, noble ladies, that listen to me, it is good for you to know that each essence, each soul is always assigned 3000 of these cycles of cosmic manifestation.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

The last of these regions is definitive; there, the lost ones undergo the final disintegration, the second death that is so indispensable. Thanks to this horrible nriihi1ation, the essence, the soul manages to free itself from the region of the Tartarus, to ascend to the planetary surface and to initiate once again, a new evolution that inevitably needs to begin from the mineral kingdom.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The lost do not ignore the concrete fact that they have to pass through the second death; however they do not fear it, they implore it, they ask for it, they know that that is the door of escape to return to the surface of the Earth and reinitiate a new evolving ascent that will go from stone to man, understood ?

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

Indubitably, the involutive processes of life, carried out in the entrails of the Earth, in the infradimensions submerged beneath the geological cortex of our world, conclude with the second death, after which the liberated essence will inevitably have to reinitiate new processes of a completely evolving nature once the pristine purity of the psychic material has been restored.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

In which other manner can the essence be emancipated? In which other manner could it be free to reinitiate a new evolving cycle that undoubtedly should begin from the hard rock?

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Once freed, the Creature on the epidermis of our world reinitiates a new evolution; then it becomes a gnome or pygmy of the mineral kingdom, it will continue later its evolution, ascending through the vegetable and animal levels, until it reconquers, in a faraway day, the state of intellectual humanoid that it had once lost.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Elemental Magic

After the second death (and this is something we have already said in our past lectures), the failed soul or souls come forth, come out once again into the light of the sun to once again begin their journey, starting a new evolution that is to begin inevitably from the lowest rung of the mineral kingdom.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Even though the essence imprisoned within ego has to involute in time within the infernal worlds, it is evident that it would never be lost, because once the ego is dissolved, it would remain free and, as we have said so many times, willing to enter into new evolving processes.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

We also affirmed in our past talks that after the second death, the essence, what we have of a soul, ascends once again in an evolving manner from the mineral kingdom to the intellectual animal mistakenly called man, passing through vegetable and animal phases. However, there is in this law of transmigration of souls something that we have not said. We have cited the law of eternal return, we have mentioned that other great law known as recurrence, but we should clarify that these two mentioned laws, develop and unfold on the spiral line of life.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation, The Law of Recurrence

Upon escaping after the second death, the essence, on coming out once more into the light of the Sun, obviously transformed into a gnome, will have to reinitiate a new evolving process, but within a superior octave. This means that such a mineral elemental creature will undoubtedly find itself within the mineral kingdom with a state of consciousness superior to the one it had when it initiated a similar evolution in the previous cycle of manifestation.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Elemental Magic

On continuing with these explanations you should not forget that any cycle of manifestation includes evolutions in the mineral, vegetable, animal and human kingdoms (in the latter we are assigned 108 existences). If we examine a shell; we see a curve upon a curve, something similar to a spiral type of ladder; it is evident that each of those cycles of manifestation develops in curves, which are higher each time.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

After the second death the essence escapes, Surges forth into the light of the Sun, to recapitulate similar processes in an evolving, ascending, innocent and happy manner. There then my friends, is the difference between involutive and evolving recapitulations. In any case, all the infinite involutive and evolving processes are of an exclusively lunar type and clearly unfold within the universal shell.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Question: Master, you explained to us that with each cycle of existences, the elementals in the evolving process are awakening consciousness because they are processing themselves in more elevated octaves. This awakening of consciousness is perhaps the result of the sufferings of involution or is it the result of the ascending process? Answer: Distinguished friend, it is good that you understand that the conscience suffers both in the evolving processes as well as the involutive processes and that therefore on the basis of so many efforts and sacrifices it is progressively awakening.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

Once the disintegration of the vehicles and the ego has been obtained, they will begin anyway the evolving journey from the mineral kingdom, but with a golden embryo and therefore, with greater consciousness than the other elementals of nature until they reach the humanoid state.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Elemental Magic

Those who enter the infernal worlds devolve within time, until the Second Death. The Soul is liberated through the Second Death. The Essence then enters into Eden in order to restart, or reinitiate new evolving processes that must emerge from within the mineral kingdom, continuing in the plant kingdom, and proceeding in the animal kingdom, until conquering once again the human state which was lost in the past. All of this work with souls of men and beasts on the surface of the world, and in the Sphere which is below the thirteen Aeons, is directed by the Rulers of the Averno.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

The evolving Essences pass through the Mineral, Plant, and Animal Kingdoms, before reconquering the human state, which they had lost.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

The Second Death is necessary so that the failed souls can return into the primeval original chaos. Here, they have to reinitiate their journey, passing through Mineral, Plant and Animal evolutions until finally reaching the Human State anew.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in Return and Reincarnation

Later, those souls rest by entering the paradises of the elementals of Nature. Then they begin new evolutionary processes that will have to start out in the mineral kingdom, proceeding as a vegetable, and continuing into the animal kingdom to culminate in the humanoid state formerly lost.

The Secret Doctrine of Anahuac, 1974 also in Elemental Magic

There is another type of materialism and atheism, the incredulous, skeptical, MarxistLeninist type. Behind it all, there is something that that materialistic atheist is seeking, he simply wants to disappear, to not exist, to annihilate himself integrally, he does not want to know anything about the divine Monad, he hates it. Obviously, upon proceeding in this manner, he will disintegrate as he wishes. That is his choice; he will cease to exist, he will descend to the infernal worlds, towards the center of gravity of the planet. That is his choice: to self-destruct. He will perish, but in the end, he does continue, the Essence will liberate itself, will return to new evolutions and will go through new involutions. He will return again and again in different cycles of manifestations to fall into the same skepticism and materialism. In the end, the result will appear. What result? On the day when all the doors definitely close, when the three thousand cycles come to an end, then that Essence will be absorbed in the Monad and the latter will in turn enter the Universal Spiritual Bosom of Life, but without mastery. What is it that that Essence really wants? What does it look for in its atheism? What is its aspirations? Its aspirations is to reject mastery. Behind it all that is what it wants, what it gets, it does not value it and it finally ends up as a divine spark but without mastery.

The Revolution of the Dialectic also in Return and Reincarnation

These Budhatas of fallen Angels yearn to reenter into the elemental paradises of Nature... These Auras, Breaths recommence thereafter the evolving march that will conduce them again from the stone until the human being...

However, both snakes work for our good. Kali, the frightful one, the monstrous one, the one of the rings that crushes, ends up devouring us in the Infernal Worlds in order to crush and kill us. Then the Essence becomes free, resurfaces, comes out into the light of the sun to restart new evolutionary processes that will go from the stone to the man –or to the intellectual animal, since the human state is beyond the evolutionary processes–.

The Fifth Gospel The Binary Serpentine Power

But, actually, that is not all. Those who do not merge with their own intimate Logoi, with their own inner Divinity, will fail. They will have to involute in the submerged worlds until the Second Death in order to begin a new evolutionary journey. So, it is not enough to create men, it is necessary that they integrate into the divine, and that is very important.

The Fifth Gospel The Objective Reason of the Solar Man

Like an unbearable curse, each one of my existences was repeated within the spiral line, in lower curves... It was obvious that I had launched myself on the downward path of involution.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Return and Reincarnation

I must emphasise by saying that the last of those 108 existences was for me something definitive... it was then that I entered Involution in the submerged mineral Kingdom. The last of those personalities was of the female sex and it is clear that after wallowing in the bed of Procrustes, it served me the passport to Hell...

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Return and Reincarnation

Now devoid of Ego and back on the evolutionary path; I entered the world of gnomes or pygmies, beings who work with the clay of the earth, innocent elementals of the mineral Kingdom...

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Elemental Magic, Return and Reincarnation

In dealing with the evolutionary process we must put forward the following declaration: Natura non facit saltus (Nature does not take jumps). It is therefore evident that the more advanced states of the plant kingdom allowed me passage to the animal state.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Return and Reincarnation

Past experience had left painful scars in the depth of my soul and I was in no manner disposed to repeat the involutive processes of the infernal World.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

I knew well that the Wheel of Samsara turns unceasingly in an evolutionary and involutionary way and that Essences, after passing through the intellectual animal kingdom, descend millions of times to the horrific precipice to eliminate the subjective elements of perception. However, by no means did I long for more abysmal suffering and that is why I was well disposed to make the best of my new cycle of rational existences. By this time the civilization of the aforementioned planet had reached it's peak; the inhabitants of that world had ships, spaceships, gigantic ultra modern cities, powerful industries and commerce, all kinds of universities etc, unfortunately there was no coordination whatsoever with the uneasiness of the spirit.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Return and Reincarnation

Answer: Friends, the ego can only be destroyed, annihilated, in two ways: first, through the conscious work on ourselves and within ourselves, here and now. Secondly, in the infernal worlds, through submerged involution, going through horrible suffering.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Obviously, those who fail in the transformation of their own life, those who are not capable of eliminating their psychological defects will have to involute over time within the nine Dantean circles until the Second Death –it is not at all pleasant to involute over time; I, personally, do not fear Hell–. We do not see its reality, but I know it psychologically, yet I do not fear it; I know that it is helpful. Undoubtedly, in the Infernal Worlds, the Ego is disintegrated, the “I”, the Myself, that “I” of experimental psychology, that “I” that all psychologists of this planet study.

The Fifth Gospel The Verticality of Existence First Gnostic Youth Encounter – Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico – July 10. 1975

Unspeakable bitterness is experienced by those who enter the submerged involution of the Infernal Worlds. Therefore, it is not advisable to involute over time.

The Fifth Gospel The Verticality of Existence First Gnostic Youth Encounter – Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico – July 10. 1975

Let it be understood that it is not an easy thing to pulverize ten thousand aggregates. If you are willing to fight, I congratulate you; and if not, the submerged involution among the entrails of the Earth awaits you. Because if you cannot, the Earth can; if you are not capable, the laws of nature are, and if you do not do the work, the laws of nature do it down there in the Infernal Worlds.

The Fifth Gospel Causes and Consequences of the Kundartiguador Organ

I do not advise you to involute among the entrails of the submerged mineral kingdom. There, the laws are frightfully multiplied and the sufferings are terrible until the Second Death, the moment in which the Essence, after having suffered a lot, becomes free, comes to the surface again to initiate new evolutionary processes. It is preferable that you do the work here and now, because you are in front of a dilemma: to do it or not to do it. If you do it, wonderful, you will become free. But if you do not do it, nature will take care of that work inside the entrails of the world. That is the harsh reality of the facts.

The Fifth Gospel Causes and Consequences of the Kundartiguador Organ

How does Nature help us? Well, by swallowing us! As we enter into the womb of this great Earth, of this planet Earth, we will involute frightfully in these regions until the center of the Earth.

The Fifth Gospel Practical Solutions Against Collective Hypnotism Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1976

There the centrifugal forces will disintegrate the different inhuman elements until there are none left. This is the Second Death. Once this is achieved, the Essence resurfaces, comes out free again into the sunlight to initiate the new evolutionary processes. It is an extra help given to the lost ones. It is not very pleasant, is it? Descending to the infernal worlds is not very advisable.

The Fifth Gospel Practical Solutions Against Collective Hypnotism Third Chamber – Mexico City – 1976

All those who will die without having done the Great Work, without having dissolved the Ego, will have to involute within the entrails of the Earth until the Second Death. So it is written and so it is.

The Fifth Gospel Transcendental Exhortation Addressed to the Missionaries

Within the Four Gospels (which, are indeed four texts written in Alchemical and Kabbalistic codes) Jesus the Great Kabir emphasizes the tremendous difficulty that exists in order to enter into the Kingdom.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

It is very difficult to find the path, yet, what is even more difficult is to stay firmly on the path and never abandon it.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Whosoever wants to ascend must first of all descend; this is the Law. Initiation is Death and Birth at the same time.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

When Dante wanted to ascend to the summit of the august mountain of initiation, his Guru made him descend into the Infernal Worlds; this is the Law.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

The Path that leads to the Intimate Self-Realization of the Being begins within the very Atomic Infernos of the wretched Intellectual Animal (mistakenly called a human being); thereafter, it continues in the Molecular Purgatory of the Initiate and concludes in the Electronic Regions of the Empyrean.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Every Neophyte must learn how to distinguish between a downfall and a descent. The conscious descent of Dante into the Infernal Worlds is not a downfall.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Only on the path (based on the tremendous Intimate Super-Efforts in ourselves and within ourselves) is the development of the all marvelous occult possibilities of the human being possible. The development of these possibilities has never been a Law. Undoubtedly, we can and must emphatically affirm that the Law for the Unhappy Intellectual Beast (before being swallowed up by the Mineral Kingdom) is that he has to miserably exist within the vicious circle of the Mechanical Laws of Nature.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in The Mechanical Man

Thus, even if the weak and the cowards become frightened, it is urgent to state that the Path which guides the brave to the intimate Self-Realization is frightfully revolutionary and terribly dangerous.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

This is the Path of the Revolution of the Consciousness; this is the Difficult Path; this is the Path greatly detested by the perverse of this Lunar Race.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

This Path is the opposite of ordinary daily life. It is based on other principles and it is submitted to other Laws; precisely on this its power and significance lay.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

Ordinary daily life, the routines of daily life (even in their most amiable and delectable aspects) lead human beings towards the Infernal Worlds and the Second Death. It cannot lead them to any other place.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

What is normal and natural is that this Race of Adam will serve as nourishment for the entrails of this planetary organism in which we live. It would be odd, strange, and difficult for someone to be saved and enter into the Kingdom.

The Solar Bodies, 1968

In the sunny country of Kem, during the dynasty of the Pharaoh Kefren, I comprehended the necessity of returning into the upright path, the necessity of shaping my own heavenly path. “...Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto light, and few there be that find it.” (Matthew 7: 13).

My Return to Tibet, 1969

The Gods and those few ones who in the world have become human know very well that the crowds always move themselves inside the circle of the terrible necessity. (Read chapter 22 of this book).

My Return to Tibet, 1969

The Path of the Razor’s Edge is filled with dangers from within and without.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

The Path of the Revolution of the Consciousness severs itself from the ways of the evolution and involution.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

Jesus, the Great Kabir stated: "Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.” (Mark C: 9: 34). These are the three factors for the inner revolution.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

The dogma of Evolution is reactionary. Therefore, let us talk about mystic insurrection. I, an ancient Tibetan Lama, was initiated into the Egyptian Mysteries after having suffered too much.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

Many people think that we could arrive at happiness through the mechanics of evolution. This is a false concept, since mechanics are mechanical. The Law of Evolution, and also that of Involution constitute the mechanical axis of this machinery called Nature. There is evolution in the seed which germinates, in the plant that develops and at last gives fruit. There is involution in the plant that enters into decrepitude and finally becomes a pile of wood. There is evolution in the child who begins to take shape in the maternal womb, in the creature that is born, grows, develops, and lives by the light of the sun. But, involution also exists in the human being who grows old, diminishes, enters into decrepitude, and finally dies. That is completely mechanical.

For the Few, 1980 also in The Mechanical Man

The very Law of Karma, in a certain sense, is also mechanical. It is mechanical in the causative sense, when looked at in the light of the Twelve Nidanas.

For the Few, 1980 also in The Law of Karma

Any mechanical evolution is processed in accordance with the Laws of Cause and Effect, the Laws of Associations, of Mutual Combinations, etc. That which is mechanical, is mechanical.

For the Few, 1980 also in The Mechanical Man

The Final Liberation is obtained only by way of the revolution of the Consciousness. The Wheel of Samsara rotates with the laws of evolution and involution.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

The evolving Anubis ascends through the right side of the wheel.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

The devolving Tiphon descends towards the Abyss through the left side of the wheel. The devolving multitudes submerge themselves within the womb of the Earth.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983 also in Return and Reincarnation

Neither evolution nor involution could ever take us to the inner self-realization of the Being.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

It is not superfluous to emphasize the transcendental and transcending idea that it is not possible to arrive at the great reality as long as we turn incessantly with the wheel of Samsara.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Of what use is it, ladies and gentlemen, to return incessantly to this valley of tears, evolve and involute constantly and to descend again and again into the infernal worlds?

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Return and Reincarnation

Ostensible this hieratic image is very remote from the evolutive and involutive laws, which are represented on the right and left sides of the wheel, and indicate to us the path of the Revolution of the Consciousness, Real Initiatory Wisdom...

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971

Only by entering onto the Path of inner Rebellion, only by separating from evolutive and involutive paths of the wheel of SAMSARA can we become Genuine and True, Real Men.Intransigent exclusion of the Doctrine of the Transmigration of Souls as taught by KRISHNA, the Great Hindu Avatar, imprisons us in the DOGMA OF EVOLUTION.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in Return and Reincarnation

No one can with impunity violate the Laws of the TAROT without getting what they deserve; remember that the Law of KATANCIA, the Superior Karma exists... There is responsibility in words... THE DOGMA OF EVOLUTION breaks the cosmic Laws of the Arcane 10 of the TAROT, violates the desiderata of the Golden Book... leads many people into error. Obviously every erudite occultist, all esoterists, must always call on the Standard measures, the Tarot, if they do not want to fall into the absurd.

The Mystery of the Golden Blossom, 1971 also in The Law of Karma

These poor sleepy ones who talk like this, think that Time and Evolution can awaken them, can Self-realize them, can take them to the final liberation. These people do not want to comprehend that Evolution and its twin sister Involution, are exclusively two mechanical laws of Nature, which work in a harmonious and coordinated way, in the whole of creation.

Runic Magic, 1969 also in Awakening

When one awakens the consciousness, then one comprehends the necessity of emancipating oneself from these two laws and of penetrating into the path of the Revolution.

Runic Magic, 1969

Inner self-realization is possible only on a basis of tremendous effort, and humanity does not like to make super-efforts. People say, “Let us eat and drink for tomorrow we will die.” Inner self-realization is never the result of a mechanical process, even if it is evolutionary.

The Buddha's Necklace, 1967 also in Laziness

The Law of Evolution and its twin sister, the Law of Involution, are purely mechanical laws of nature, which do not lead to self-realization.

The Buddha's Necklace, 1967

The path is different; it is opposed to the routine of daily life. The path is one hundred percent revolutionary. It is against everything and everyone. The path is bitterer than bile. The path is the revolution of consciousness by means of the three factors: birth, death, and sacrifice for humanity. On the path, the poor intellectual animal must transform himself into a different being.

The Buddha's Necklace, 1967

Those who find the path arc very rare; even more rare are those who don’t abandon the path. Truthfully, not all human beings can develop themselves and become different. This may appear to be an injustice, but it is not. People do not want to be different; they are not interested. People should not be given what they do not want, what they do not desire, what does not interest them. Why should human beings have what they do not want? If the poor intellectual animal, mistakenly called man, was forced to transform himself into a different being when he is satisfied with himself as he is, then this would, in fact, be a great injustice.

The Buddha's Necklace, 1967

Inner sell-realization of the human being can never be the result of the mechanical evolution of nature but is the fruit of tremendous efforts and humanity does not like to make super efforts.

The Buddha's Necklace, 1967

The Superman is not the result of evolution. The Superman is born of the Seed. The Superman is the result of a tremendous revolution of consciousness. The Superman is the Son of Man mentioned by Christ. The Superman is Adam Christ.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in The Words He Uses

Evolution means that nothing stands still; everyone lives within the concepts of time, space and movement. Nature in itself contains all possibilities. Nobody reaches perfection with evolution. Some be come better, and the vast majority become terribly perverse. That is evolution. The man of innocence, the man of paradise of several million years ago is now, after much evolution the man of the atomic bomb, the man of the hydrogen bomb and the corrupted being of embezzlement and crime. Evolution is a process of complication of energy. We need to return to the point of departure (sex) and regenerate ourselves. Man is a living seed. The seed, the grain must exert itself to germinate the Superman. This is not evolution. This is a tremendous Revolution of Consciousness. With just reason Christ said, “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the son of man be lifted up.”

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

We do not reach these heights by means of the mechanical evolution of nature. Evolution is the movement of universal life, but this does not take anyone to the Angelic state. Nature is not interested in the Superman. Nature contains all the possibilities but the Superman is even contrary to her vested interests. The most terrible forces of nature oppose the birth of the Superman. The Angel, the Superman, is the result of a tremendous revolution of consciousness. Nobody is obliged to help the individual in this revolution. This is a very intimate question for each one. The problem is absolutely sexual. The sword must be drawn and we must fight the terrible forces of nature that oppose the birth of the Superman.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in The Mechanical Man

The Superman is the result of a tremendous revolution of conscious ness. Those who believe that the mechanical evolution of nature can turn us into Masters are absolutely mistaken. The Master is the result of a tremendous revolution of consciousness.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

The Adam Christ is born of the seed. The grain, the seed, needs Thelema (willpower) in order to heroically germinate the Superman; his birth is not the result of evolution. The Superman does not require improvements, as many students of occultism suppose.

Esoteric Course of Kabbalah

Evolution is simply the movement of universal life according to the concepts of time, space and motion. All possibilities are contained within evolving nature. Some become very good and others become very bad. However, the Superman is not the result of any evolution, but the product of a tremendous revolution of the consciousness.

Esoteric Course of Kabbalah

The experiences of life complicate and strengthen the “I”. We have been evolving for many millions of years.. .so what? What did we gain with these many experiences. The simple human being of eighteen million years ago is now the complicated, perverse, sly and selfish person of these great cities. Is this progress?

The Aquarian Message, 1960

When we have dissolved the “I”, then there will exist a total revolution of the consciousness.

The Aquarian Message, 1960

The “I” strengthened and fortified itself with experiences throughout the centuries of evolution. Therefore, we do not need evolution now. What we need is a revolution. The internal Lamb will enter into the Soul when we dissolve the “I When the internal Lamb enters into the Soul, He transforms himself into the Soul. He (the Lamb) transforms himself into Her, and Her into Him.

The Aquarian Message, 1960

That, which we call the Son of Man is born from this divine and human symbiosis, and this is what is called the revolution of the consciousness.

The Aquarian Message, 1960

We became tremendously destructive and perverse with evolution.

The Aquarian Message, 1960

When we decapitate and dissolve the Prince of this World, the Lamb enters the soul and is transformed into Her. He transforms into Her and She transforms into Him. He is humanised and She is divinised. Of this wonderful blend, of this symbiosis of divine and human, comes that which is certainly our adorable Saviour, called the Son of Man. That is the revolution of the consciousness. We need to elevate the Son of Man within ourselves.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The unfavourable Mutant is found between the dilemma of disintegrating his false crystallisation or entering within the submerged involution, within the circle of the terrible necessity.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

We, the Gnostics, emphasise the idea that the birth of the Mutant by means of atomic explosions and radioactivity cannot be possible. We do not take this Holy Communion’s Parchment-Host. No one can cheat us. We can never accept the Dogma of Evolution.

My Return to Tibet, 1969

The Mutant is the outcome of a revolution of the Consciousness. It is the living product of a psychological rebellion.

My Return to Tibet, 1969 also in The Words He Uses

The order of the factors does not alter the product.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

The partial revolution is not total revolution.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

The order of economical and political factors can be modified without the vital product suffering any change. Life continues with all of its pains. Partial revolution changes the order of the factors, yet it does not alter the vital product. Human beings continue mutually tormenting each other.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

The truth comes to us when we dissolve the “I.” When we dissolve the “I,” we think with a consciousness of multitudes. We do not affirm the “I” when we dissolve the “I,” instead, we affirm the pronoun “We.” When we attain the total revolution, each one of us becomes a perfect government.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

Total revolution exists when we dissolve the “I.”

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

Other people await believing that through evolution and time they will one day attain perfection. Those people are even worse, because they want to perpetuate Satan throughout the centuries. They are worse, because they want to perfect Satan (Satan is the “I”).

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

This is what the evolution of the “I” is. It is a complication and a fortification of the myself. It is the projection of error throughout the centuries.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

Therefore, evolution ends when the “I” is dissolved. This is what total revolution is.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

This is total revolution.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

The economical and political revolution is partial revolution.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

We need total revolution.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

Total revolution is supreme happiness.

Endocrinology & Criminology, 1957

We need a tremendous revolution of consciousness to achieve the return to the Interior Star that guides our Being. When we dissolve the “I” there is total revolution.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966)

Let us not expect the ‘I’ to evolve because the ‘I’ never perfects itself ever. We need a total Revolution of Consciousness. This is the only type of revolution that we accept. The doctrine of A-Himsa is based on the Revolution of the Dialectic, on the Revolution of Consciousness.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

Those who dissolve ego, will achieve radical transformation and this is total revolution. Question: Master, it seems to be a concept of total injustice and contrary to the love with which the Great Architect of the Universe is identified, to admit that after having achieved the human state and developed the intellect to the elevated point where we find ourselves in, where the advances and the feats of modern scientists are marveled at, that we have to return to the state of horses, dogs and pigs. How can this concept ever appear even to the mind of the rational and intelligent man? Frankly I believe that this insults the eminent dignity of man in the image and likeness of God.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

We have already passed through involution (descent of the Spirit into matter). We also suffered horribly in evolution (process of complication of the energy). Now, a complete revolution (dissolution of the “I”) is urgent.

The Aquarian Message, 1960

The “I” then continued reincarnating to satisfy its desires. Thus we are main submitted to the Laws of Evolution and of Karma.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978

Experiences and pain complicate the “I”; evolution is a process of complication of energy. The “I” is strengthened and complicated with expe rience. It is now already very late. Millions of people have become monstrous demons. Only a tremendous revolution can save us from the abyss. When man dissolves the “I”, then there is total revolution. Man can cease to suffer when he is capable of dissolving the “I”. Pain is the result of our bad actions.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978

We have already passed through involution (the descent of Spirit into matter). We have already suffered horribly through evolution (the process of the complication of energy). A total revolution is now urgently needed (the dissolution of the “I”). No-one can be happy until he has reached his Interior Star. It is only through internal revolution that we return little by little to our Super-divine Atom. We pass through the angelic, archangelic, seraphinic, logoic states etc, until finally the Ray fuses with its star, Ain Soph which glows with happiness.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978

Now, there is a concrete fact in life, and it is the discontinuity of Nature; that is obvious. All phenomena are discontinuous. Thus, the different levels of the Being are discontinuous. This means that, by means of evolution, we would never reach perfection. The dogma of evolution is of no use, except to stall us.

The Fifth Gospel The Destruction of our Lunar Inheritance Third Chamber – Mexico City – June 1977

There is evolution in the seed that germinates, in the plant that grows, grows branches and fruits; and there is involution in the tree that withers little by little, degenerates, enters decrepitude, and finally dies.

The Fifth Gospel The Destruction of our Lunar Inheritance Third Chamber – Mexico City – June 1977

There is evolution in the baby that is formed inside the maternal womb, in the young man who launches himself into battle with life. There is involution in the old man who enters the state of decrepitude and finally dies.

The Fifth Gospel The Destruction of our Lunar Inheritance Third Chamber – Mexico City – June 1977

Let us observe the different steps of a ladder: they are discontinuous. The different levels of the Being are the same: discontinuous. A certain number of activities belongs to each level of the Being. When one moves to a superior level of the Being, one has to make a jump and leave all the activities that one had in the inferior level of the Being.

The Fifth Gospel The Destruction of our Lunar Inheritance Third Chamber – Mexico City – June 1977

This includes a jump, and that jump is revolutionary, rebellious. It is never of an evolutive type, it is always revolutionary, rebellious. It is not evolutive, it is not involutive either. It is revolutionary, rebellious.

The Fifth Gospel The Destruction of our Lunar Inheritance Third Chamber – Mexico City – June 1977

There is a concrete fact in life and it is the discontinuity of nature, that is obvious. All phenomena are discontinuous and this means that we will never arrive at perfection through evolution. We need to become true solar Men in the most complete sense of the word.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

The intellectual animal wants to stop suffering but he does nothing to change; he does not struggle to move on to a superior level of the Being, therefore, how can he change? All phenomena are discontinuous; the dogma of Evolution is useless, except for us to become stagnant. I know many pseudo-esoterists, sincere people and of good heart, who are bottled up in the dogma of Evolution, who wait for time to perfect them and millions of years elapse and they never perfect themselves. Why? Because such persons do nothing to change the levels of the Being, they always remain on the same rung.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

Evolution and involution are two laws which are simultaneously processed in all of creation, they constitute the mechanical axis of nature but they will never lead us to liberation.

The Revolution of the Dialectic also in The Mechanical Man

The laws of Evolution and involution are purely material and have nothing to do with the inner Self-Realization of the Being. We do not deny them, they exist, but they are not good for Psychological Revolution. We need to be revolutionary, we need to enter the path of the Revolution of Consciousness.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

How could we move on to a superior level of the Being if we were not revolutionary? Let us observe the different rungs of a ladder, they are discontinuous, similarly, the different levels of the Being are like that.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

The transition to another level of the Being includes, therefore, a leap and that leap is rebellious, it is never of an evolving type, it is always revolutionary, dialectic. There are men, busybodies, who feel they are like a god; this type of individuals are megalomaniacs of the worst kind, of the worst taste. The one who feels he is a sage because he has some pseudo-esoteric teachings in his mind and thinks that he is already a great initiate, has fallen into megalomania he is full of himself.

The Revolution of the Dialectic

It is good to know once and for all that we, the Gnostics, tread the Path of the Revolution of the Consciousness. The Christ in his Gospel spoke to us about it when he said: “Narrow is the gate and strait is the way that leads to the light and very few are those who find it.”

The Fifth Gospel Urgency of the Inner Revolution Message directed to the Gnostic youth – Mexico City – 1975

What is understood by “good householder”? What is it that must be understood by the person who follows the path of the “good householder”? Listen: the path of the “good householder” is the path of the reactionaries, that of those who abhor the Revolution of the Consciousness, of the retardant and regressive people.

The Fifth Gospel Urgency of the Inner Revolution Message directed to the Gnostic youth – Mexico City – 1975

We, the Gnostics, are different: we tread a path of psychological rebelliousness because we know that it, in itself, is the only one which can lead us to Final Liberation.

The Fifth Gospel Urgency of the Inner Revolution Message directed to the Gnostic youth – Mexico City – 1975

It is necessary to understand that when one works on oneself, he enters the path of the revolution of Consciousness, he aspires to one day receive his animic and spiritual principles, that is, to become a temple of the inner Monad; because it is obvious that a developed, unconstrained, awakened Essence, integrates, fuses completely with the Human Soul in the Causal World.

The Fifth Gospel Gnostic Psychology of False Feelings Third Chamber – Mexico City – May 4. 1977

When one enters this Path, he discovers that he has entered the Path of the Revolution of Consciousness; and the revolution of Consciousness is tremendous because it actually brings with it intellectual revolution and physical revolution.

The Fifth Gospel Gnostic Psychology of False Feelings Third Chamber – Mexico City – May 4. 1977

The revolution of Consciousness provokes a series of extraordinary intellectual revolutions, and at the same time, the physical revolution appears as a result.

The Fifth Gospel Gnostic Psychology of False Feelings Third Chamber – Mexico City – May 4. 1977

The revolution of the consciousness does not signify ungratefulness; it does not mean forgetting one’s father, undervaluing one’s adorable mother. The revolution of the consciousness is wisdom, love and perfect power.

Fundamental Education, 1970

The revolution of the consciousness would be radically impossible without the special help of our own particular adorable Divine Mother.

Runic Magic, 1969

Do you perhaps think that the ego can evolve? Do you suppose that dissolving it is evolution? Any educated clairvoyant would be able to verify the involutive processes of the “I”, of the myself, of the self.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

It is surprising to verify how the ego precipitates itself on the involutive path, descending in the animal, vegetable and mineral levels, when we tread the path of the revolution of consciousness.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Or is it that you think my friends, that with the dissolution of the ego, the essence will reinitiate its new evolving ascent adhering to the wheel of Samsara?

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Or is that you think that the Being, the Spirit should live perpetually bottled up in the evolving processes of nature and of the cosmos?

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

We have never denied the laws of evolution and of involution; we only clarify them. The evolving and involutive processes correspond exactly to the great wheel of SAMSARA. Such processes could not repeat themselves infinitely in the world of Spirit, because this would immediately mean, perpetual slavery.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

Remember friends, that Jesus the Great Kabir never wanted to bottle himself up in the dogma of evolution.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

That great Hierophant only talked to us of the path of the revolution of consciousness, of the strait, narrow and difficult path that leads us to light and that very few are the ones who find it.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973

The wretched intellectual biped (mistakenly called a human being) fatally carries the Moon within himself he carries it in his Ego and in his Protoplasmic Lunar Bodies. The entire Mechanization of the Earth is governed by the Moon and disgracefully the Rational Animal is nothing more than a machine.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in The Mechanical Man

Only through the Revolution of the Consciousness is it possible to become absolutely liberated from this Lunar Mechanization.

The Solar Bodies, 1968 also in The Mechanical Man

We have arrived at the New Age and today we celebrate Christmas with joy in our hearts. 1962 years ago, we began to celebrate the birth of Christ in the mystical, Christian way. It is urgent to fully understand the Path of intimate self-realisation. Only through self-realisation can we achieve Christification. In this conference we will examine carefully and in a synthetic form each of the basic factors of intimate self-realisation.

The theory of evolution has become an uncompromising dogma. Although we do not deny the Law of Evolution, we do not accept evolution as dogma.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Certainly, evolution, and her twin sister involution, are two mechanical laws that are processed simultaneously in all creation. These two laws exist and all the mechanics of nature are based on them. Denying these two laws would be the height of absurdity. However, not only beneficial things are attributed to these two laws.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Mechanical Man

It is incorrect to believe that through evolution, one can reach intimate self-realisation. The facts speak for themselves. Facts are facts and before the facts we must surrender. It has been more than eighteen million years that we have been evolving into separate sexes and yet today instead of being better, we have become terribly perverse. All evolutionary theories pale in the face of the stark reality of our tremendous perversity. We argue, we explain, we say that there are cycles of light and darkness, and that evolution takes place in a spiral.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Everyone is free to say whatever they want and to defend their theories, but what no one can deny, painful as it is, is the terrible reality of our sinfulness. The body of evidence speaks, duly proved by the defendant, for we are talking about hydrogen bombs, atomic bombs, war, prostitution, greed, hatred, perversion of morality, and so on. What more evidence against spiritual evolutionary dogma could its followers want? The laws of evolution and involution are the backbone of nature but not the Path of self-realisation. Many species are the result of evolution and many other species are in the processes of involution, that is all.

If you really want the Christmas of the Heart, the urgent, tremendous revolution of the consciousness is required. Only through revolution can one realise the work completely.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The revolution of the consciousness has three basic factors: first, death, second, birth, and third, sacrifice for humanity. The order of these three factors does not alter the end result. In short, these are three parallel lines of our inner self. They are three well-defined lines of the revolution of consciousness. We must work with these three basic factors if we really, truly yearn for the full self-realisation. Let us now study each of these three factors separately in order to know what must die in us, what must be born and why we should sacrifice for others.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Entropy and Sacrifice

We have suffered greatly with the brothers of the Gnostic Movement. Many have sworn allegiance to the altars of Lumisials. Many have vowed to labor in the Great Work of the Father until the completion of his total self-realisation. Many people have cried, vowing never to withdraw from the Gnostic movement. But, painfully, all of these promises have been in vain. Nearly all fled, becoming enemies, cursing, fornicating, and committing adultery. All went on the Black Path. These terrible contradictions of human beings have a fatal foundation, a tragic base. This foundation is the multiplicity of self.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

It is urgent to know that the ‘I’ is a system of egos, a legion of devils bred like animals in the gutters of men. Each ego is a small self that has a certain self-independence. These selves, these evil egos quarrel amongst themselves. “I’ll read the newspaper,” says the intellectual self. “I'll take a bike ride and contradict the driver ‘I’.” “I have hunger,” says the I of gluttony. “I am cold”, says the I of metabolism’ “You will not stop me,” cries the passionate ‘I’ in defense of these ‘I’s.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Gluttony

Behind these come the Seven Deadly Sins. Each of these is personified by a self, an ego. Anger, Greed, Lust, Pride, Envy, Sloth and Gluttony: these are the seven evil selves that live within us. The legion of secondary defects follows them. The illusion of a “Total Self” is the legion of the evil ego. These egos, which have already been studied by Franz Hartman, live in the underworld of human animals, eating, sleeping, breeding and living off our vital principles.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Gluttony, Greed

When death comes, something continues. That something is the essence and the ghost of the dead. Just as in the skull is the brain, and within the rib cage are the lungs, heart, etc., within the ghost of the dead is the pluralised ‘I’. Each of the egos, which together constitute the self, are projected at different levels of the mind and exist craving to satisfy their desires. The ‘I’ cannot ever improve, because the devil is the devil and what else can he be?

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Desire and Will

There can be no peace while so many egos, so many internal contradictions, exist within the individual. The ‘Myselves’ are the cause of all internal contradictions. The ‘I’ that now swears allegiance to Gnosis is displaced by another ‘I’ which hates Gnosis. The ‘I’ that today swears eternal love to a woman is displaced tomorrow by another which hates her. Men act irresponsibly because they do not yet have a permanent center of consciousness. Man is a being not yet achieved.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Hatred

Man still is not a man, but just an intellectual animal. It is a grave mistake to call the legion of selves soul. Truly, man has within his core psychic material, the material for the soul, but still has no soul. The Gospels say: of what use is it to win the world if you are going to lose your soul?” Jesus told Nicodemus that he had to be born again, of water and spirit, in order to enjoy the attributes that correspond to the Truth. This is impossible without the mystical death.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

In death, we can establish a permanent center of consciousness within our inner essence. That center is what is called soul. Only a man with true soul can have continuity of purpose. Only in a man with soul are there are no internal contradictions. Only when there are no internal contradictions can we find true inner peace.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The ‘I’ foolishly wastes our psychic material in atomic explosions of anger, greed, lust, envy, pride, sloth, gluttony, etc. Therefore, we can understand why the psychic material does not accumulate and the soul cannot be created. To make something you need raw material: without the raw material nothing can be produced, because nothing comes out of nothing.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

When the ‘I’ starts to die, psychic material begins to accumulate. When this material begins to accumulate, the establishment of a permanent center of consciousness begins. When the ‘I’ dies absolutely, the permanent center of consciousness becomes fully established. This permanent center of consciousness is the wonderful soul which, having continuity of purpose, can only be faithful to Gnosis. Those without such a center can now be in Gnosis today and tomorrow against it, in one school today and tomorrow in another. Such people have no real existence.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The mystical death is an arduous and difficult factor. The ego dissolves based on thorough comprehension. Coexisting with others and becoming aware of our innate nature forms the mirror in which we see ourselves for who we are. Our defects jump out of hiding during our interaction with others and if we are vigilant we can observe them.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Awakening

The splitting of the seminal atoms results in an internal voltage which releases a solar substance known in India by the sacred name of Devi Kundalini. This fiery, electronic substance rises through the spinal canal, along the spine, transforming molecular matter into the electronic, solar, spiritual soul. This electronic material is the fire of the Holy Spirit. The slow death of the soul disperses the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Third Logos. The Holy Spirit is the sexual energy. We need to build spirit and this is only possible by working with the sexual fire of the Holy Spirit. We need to convert the soul into spirit, and we need to work with the solar substance in order to achieve union with the Holy Spirit, so that the Divine Spirit may be born within us.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

My brothers, in this Christmas of 1962, I want you to understand the Path of Christification. This is the way of regeneration. I have taught Western Tantrism. I have documented this oriental information in a synthetic way.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Remember that sexual regeneration is impossible without the death of the ego. The serpent ascends according to the merits of the heart. The ‘I’ will die as the serpent rises if we work in the teachings of the Fire. Sexual magic and the death of the self are like a pair of twins who walk hand in hand. This doctrine is taught at the School of Secrets in China, in the Tantric Buddhism of Tibet, in the Zen Buddhism of Japan, and so on. Understand this, brothers. Thoroughly comprehend these two aspects of Self Realisation, which are complementary to Universal Charity.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The path of Peter and the path of John are separated by a chasm. Someone needs to fall into the Abyss for the cosmic drama of initiation to begin in us. The fallen is Judas, ‘I’, myself, the reincarnating ego which sells the Christ for thirty pieces of silver. It is necessary that Judas, the ego, the myself, dies. That is the law. It is essential that the Gnostic disciple bridges the path of Peter and the way of Judas. That bridge is death. We have already clarified that without the death of the ego (Judas) regeneration is impossible.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Three Traitors

Peter died as the Lord Jesus did, but he was crucified upside down. Peter's death shows us the way of the Stone, the work with the Philosopher's Stone (sex). Jesus calls Peter “Cephas,” which is to say, “rock.” John supported his head quietly on the heart of Jesus. The Christ (Love) can be found in the Word (the Verb), which in turn is nourished by the Christ. It is this Verb, the love of the Christ, which we must incarnate through successive initiations.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The intellectual animal, falsely called man, is only an embryo with the possibility of developing. This embryo can develop or be definitively lost. It is not a law that these possibilities unfold: what is normal is that they are definitively lost. The Law of Evolution and its twin sister, the Law of Involution or retrocession, are purely mechanical laws that have nothing to do with the intimate self realisation. Whoever wants to self realise in depth needs the revolution of the consciousness. When we dissolve the ‘I’, there is revolution of the consciousness. When we create the four bodies, there is revolution of the consciousness. When we incarnate our divine triad, there is revolution of the consciousness.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in The Mechanical Man

To be born, to die, to sacrifice ourselves for humanity, are the three basic factors of the revolution of the consciousness. We the Gnostics are totally revolutionary. We want the total revolution.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

Behold the three factors of the revolution of the consciousness: to be born, to die, and to sacrifice ourselves for humanity.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

These Initiates cannot celebrate the Nativity in their hearts, they cannot achieve the incarnation of their Being in spite of possessing the superior existential bodies. Thus, they convert themselves into Hanasmussians with a double centre of gravity.

Dissolving the I, 1964

Behold the three factors of the revolution of the Consciousness: To be born, to die, and to sacrifice ourselves for humanity.

Dissolving the I, 1964

Humanity develops in two circles, the exoteric and the esoteric. The exoteric is public. The esoteric is secret. The multitude lives in the exoteric, in the esoteric, the Adepts of the Great White Brother hood. It is the duty of all initiated Brothers to help those in the public circle. It is necessary to bring many to the secret circle of the White Brotherhood. The Initiatic Path is a true revolution of consciousness. This revolution has three perfectly defined aspects: first, to be born; second, to die; third, to sacrifice ourselves for humanity to give our life for humanity to struggle to bring others to the secret path.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in Entropy and Sacrifice

To be born is an absolutely sexual problem. To die is the work of the dissolution of the “I”, the ego. Sacrifice for others is Love.

The Perfect Matrimony, 1950 (ed. 1966) also in Entropy and Sacrifice

He who wants to Self-Realise needs a Revolution of Consciousness; to Die, to be Born and to Sacrifice. A Revolution of Consciousness when we decapitate the “I”. A Revolution of Consciousness when we make the Solar Bodies. A Revolution of Consciousness when we incarnate the Being. Up until then we do not have real existence.

Tarot and Kabbalah, 1978

It is impossible to attain the Atma-Vidya without the Three Factors for the Revolution of Consciousness.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

The Atma-Vidya is impossible without first having attained the Second Birth. The AtmaVidya is impossible without the death of the Pluralized I. The Atma-Vidya is impossible without Sacrifice for humanity.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

It is not the Law of Evolution that confers the Atma-Vidya upon us. It is not the Law of Involution that confers the Atma-Vidya upon us. It is only on the basis of tremendous and frightening Inner Revolutions, that we arrive at the Atma-Vidya.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

The one who reaches the Venusian Initiation also becomes a Christ. It is only by means of the three factors for the Revolution of Consciousness that one attains the Venusian Initiation.

Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology, 1967

Mastery is different. No one would be able to achieve adepthood without the three factors of the revolution of consciousness, clearly expressed by Our Lord the Christ: “He who wants to come after me, deny himself, take up his cross and follow me.” To deny oneself means dissolution of the “I”. To take up one’s cross, place it on our shoulders, means to work with sex-yoga, with the Maithuna, with sexual magic. To follow the Christ is equivalent to sacrificing oneself for humanity, to give one’s life so that others may live.

Yes, There Is a Hell, a Devil and Karma, 1973 also in Entropy and Sacrifice

Only the one who is prepared can understand the twelfth repentance of Pistis Sophia. Andrew, within us, is the autonomous and Self-conscious part of our own Being, who is occupied with the three factors of the revolution of the Consciousness.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983

These three factors are: To be born, to die, and to sacrifice the self for humanity. The Cross of Saint Andrew is accustomed to being terribly painful.

Pistis Sophia Unveiled, 1983 also in Entropy and Sacrifice, The Words He Uses

Master: What I said previously still stands. There are three factors that are needed for the Revolution of Consciousness: to die, that is, to disintegrate the Ego; to be born, that is, to create the Superior Existential Bodies of the Being in order to become an authentic man, a true man; and third, sacrifice for humanity.

The Fifth Gospel The Verticality of Existence First Gnostic Youth Encounter – Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico – July 10. 1975

But if I have placed a certain definitive emphasis on the matter of the dissolution of the Ego, it is for a clear and precise reason: it so happens that our little brothers of the International Gnostic Movement hardly concern themselves with the dissolution of the Ego, and I, in truth, do not want to make a harvest of Hanasmussens with a double center of gravity. I emphasize the necessity to die because the brothers are exclusively concerned with being born, with acquiring powers, initiations, degrees, etc., but they are not concerned with radically changing, dissolving the Ego, reducing it to ashes.

The Fifth Gospel The Verticality of Existence First Gnostic Youth Encounter – Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico – July 10. 1975

Whoever does not destroy the Ego fails in the Great Work of the Father. May the Three Factors of the Revolution of the Consciousness be understood: to die, because one has to destroy the animal Ego; to be born, because it is necessary for the Being to be attired with the Superior Existential Bodies; one has to create the vehicles so that Second Birth takes place in us. The Second Birth is from water and from the Spirit, from water and from Fire. That is why Jesus said to Nicodemus: “It is necessary to be born again to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.” The Man-Spirit, the real man must be born in us and this is possible by means of sexual transmutation. Sacrifice for humanity is to bring the word everywhere, to form Lumisials, to create the World Salvation Army. Therein lies the three factors of the Revolution of the Consciousness: to die, to be born and to sacrifice ourselves for humanity.

The Fifth Gospel Transcendental Exhortation Addressed to the Missionaries

It is obvious that if we disintegrate the Ego, we are paid. It is certain and absolutely true that if we create the Superior Existential Bodies of the Being, we are paid. We cannot deny that if we sacrifice ourselves for our fellow men, we are paid. All that is indubitable.

The Fifth Gospel The Power of Intuition of the Psychological Man Third Chamber – Mexico City – June 22, 1977

In order to achieve absolute Enlightenment, one needs to work with the three factors of the Revolution of the Consciousness: to be born, that is to say, to create the Superior Existential Vehicles of the Being; to die, to disintegrate the Ego in its totality; to sacrifice for humanity. There you have the three factors of the Revolution of the Consciousness.

The Fifth Gospel The Power of Intuition of the Psychological Man Third Chamber – Mexico City – June 22, 1977

Unfortunately, we are now no more than intellectual animals condemned to the penalty of living. In order to be men, it is necessary to have dissolved the Ego and to have created the Superior Existential Bodies of the Being. Moreover, to have really sacrificed ourselves for humanity.

The Fifth Gospel The Verticality of Existence First Gnostic Youth Encounter – Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico – July 10. 1975

To become free from the 48, 24, 12, and 6 laws, signifies making tremendous super-efforts, but people do not like such super-efforts. People always want what is more comfortable, what is easier, and that is why nearly every human being, sooner or later, ceases to be born in order to enter the subworld of 96 laws. It is only by virtue of the revolution of the consciousness that we can liberate ourselves from the 48, 24, 12, and 6 laws, but people do not like the revolution of the consciousness. People prefer to dance, to drink, to fornicate, to commit adultery, to get drunk, to earn a lot of money, etc, etc. This is more comfortable for people than the revolution of the consciousness.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66 also in Laziness

The revolution of the consciousness has three factors, factors which people do not like: 1. To die. 2. To be born. 3. To sacrifice for humanity.

It is clear that in order to disintegrate the ‘I’ there is a need for a revolutionary ethics based in psychology. We have taught this ethics, we have taught this psychology. The dissolution of the ‘I’ is radical, total, and definitive revolution.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

The pseudo-esoterists and pseudo-occultists react before the three factors of our Fifth Gospel; each one according to their age, mental conditioning, prejudices, passions, weaknesses, etc. People who are full of sexual potency prefer to begin the work with the Maithuna but forget the death of the ‘I’ and the sacrifice for humanity.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

When we begin to free ourselves from all of these tedious laws created by society, it is clear that our fellow human beings become our enemies because we no longer coincide with them in the mistaken way of thinking, feeling, and acting. The revolution of the consciousness is terrible and our fellowmen mortally hate it in an instinctive way, since they do not know it.

Christmas Messages, 1952–66

To make the sexual energy return inwards and upwards, to dissolve the ‘I’ and to give our life for others is something foreign and exotic for the little devils, and they are as numerous as the sands of the sea and they live with us. For those who abuse sex, the revolution of the consciousness is impossible and the men with piel del chivo are not willing to stop their sexual abuses.
