Every word here is his, cut out of Igneous Rose (1954) by reference and never retyped. Each passage carries its chapter and the paragraph it came from, so anything on this page can be found again in the book.
He wrote the book as a course, one chapter at a time, in numbered verses, and it is printed that way here, in his order and with his numbers, which are set small in gold. The book moves back and forth between the rites of the trees and the work on the mind, and between those and the chambers of the fire in the spine. He meant them to be worked together. “This is how we christify the mind within the igneous rose of the universe.”
The practices are in frames. The plain passages between them are the teaching a practice needs: what the rite is for, why it works, what happens when it is done, and the warning. The rest of the book, the visions told for their own sake and the doctrine that no practice rests on, stays in the book. Use Practices only below to read the frames and nothing else.
137 passages also stand in another finished work, and each says where. 50 of them are the plant rites that Elemental Magic gathered, and they are printed again here because they are the heart of this book.

266. However, when the student reaches this point, he should then practice the exercise during the transition between vigil and sleep.
267. Then, in visions during his dreams, he will meticulously remember all the details of his childhood, because when dreaming, we are in contact with the subconsciousness where all our memories are stored.
268. When we take advantage of the state of transition between vigil and sleep, this procedure of internal retrospection can be prolonged until we remember the instances that preceded the death of our past physical body, and the last painful scenes. While continuing the retrospective exercise, we continue to remember our entire past
reincarnation and all the past reincarnations that preceded it.

32. Our head is a tower with two rooms, the cerebrum and the cerebellum.
33. The cerebellum is the room of the subconsciousness. The cerebrum is the room of the consciousness.
34. The wisdom of the internal worlds belongs to the room of the subconsciousness. The things of our world belong to the room of the consciousness.

46. As soon as he awakes on his bed, the first thing that the disciple needs to do is to practice the retrospective exercise in order to remember with precision all of his internal experiences.

55. There is the need to ac1iië complete control of ourselves. An initiate can feel happiness, but he will never fall into the frenzy of madness. An Initiate can feel sadness, but he will never reach desperation.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in The Science of Meditation
56. He who is desperate about the death of a beloved being, still does not serve as an Initiate, because death is the crown of everyone.
57. During the practice of meditation, the chakras of the astral body of our disciples enter into activity. The disciples then begin to perceive the images of the supra-sensible worlds.
58. In the beginning, the disciple perceives fleeting images. Later, the disciple totally perceives all the images of the supra-sensible worlds.
59. This first stage of knowledge belongs to ‘imaginative’ knowledge.
60. The disciple contemplates many images that are mysteries for him because he does not understand them.
61. Yet, as long as he perseveres with his practices of internal meditation, he will then feel that the supra-sensible images produce certain feelings of happiness or pain. 62. The disciple then feels inspired in the presence of the internal images. He has thus risen to the stage of inspired knowledge.
63. Later, when he sees an internal image, instantaneously he knows its significance and the reason for many things. This is the third stage of knowledge, known as intuitive knowledge.
64. Imagination, inspiration, and intuition are the three obligatory paths for the Initiation. 65. We reach these three ineffable heights by means of concentration, meditation and Samadhi.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition, The Science of Meditation
A practice
67. Oriental wisdom practises meditation in the following order:
First, ASANA (posture of the body).
Second, PRATYHARA (thinking in nothing).
Third, DARANA (concentration on only one thing).
Fourth, DYANA, (profound meditation).
Fifth, SAMADHI (ecstasy).
68. It is necessary to place the body in the most comfortable position (ASANA). It is indispensable to blank the mind before concentrating (PRATYHARA).
It is urgent to know how to fix the mind on only one object (DARANA).
Then, we profoundly reflect on the content of the object itself (DYANA).
Thus, through this way, we reach ecstasy (SAMADHI).
69. All of these esoteric disciplines of the mind must completely saturate our daily life. 70. In the presence of any person, many images that correspond to the internal life of that person with whom we are in contact will emerge from our interior. This is known as clairvoyance.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Clairvoyance, The Science of Meditation
71. Later, these images produce distinct feelings of inspiration within ourselves. The disciple has then reached the stage of inspired knowledge.
72. Finally, in the presence of any person, the disciple instantaneously knows the life of that person. This is the stage of intuitive knowledge.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition

Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17
A practice

80. Clairvoyance and imagination are the same. Clairvoyance is imagination and
imagination is clairvoyance. Clairvoyance exists eternally.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Clairvoyance, Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition
A practice
81. When an image emerges in our interior, then it is necessary to serenely examine it in order to know its contents.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17
82. When the igneous rose of our astral body (situated in the middlebrow) awakes into new activity, then the images that come internally to our imagination are accompanied with light and colour.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition
A practice
83. It is necessary to learn by direct experience how to differentiate between the images that are received and the images that we consciously or unconsciously create or project. 84. It is necessary to d between our own images and the outer images that come to us. 85. The imagination has two poles, one being a receptor and the other a projector. 86. Receiving an image is one thing. Projecting an image created by our understanding is another thing.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition
87. The contrary pole of the imagination is imagery.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition
89 In is the absurd images that are created by a mind filled with aberrations.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17
A practice
95. We must learn to differentiate between creating an image with the understanding and capturing an image that floats in the supra sensible worlds.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17
96. Many people may say, “How is it possible for me to capture an image when I am not clairvoyant.”
97. We must answer to them that imagination is the same as clairvoyance and that every human being is more or less imaginative, which means, more or less clairvoyant. 98. The most damage that has been caused to the students of occultism is a result of the false concept that exists about clairvoyance.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition
107. When we re-conquer our lost infancy, all the images that come to our imagination are accompanied by vivid astral colours.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition
118. Those who have already caused the magic wheel of their middlebrow to rotate, possess a rich and powerful imagination and all the images which are perceived by them are accompanied with light, color, heat and sound.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition
A practice
124. It is necessary for the devotees of the path to have a well equilibrated mind. 125. When we speak of logic, we allude to a transcendental logic that has nothing to do with the text of scholastic logic.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17
126. Every internal image has a scientific correspondence in this plane of physical objectivity.
127. When the images of the student cannot be explained with a logical concept, it is a sign that the mind of the student is completely unbalanced.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17
A practice
128. Every internal image must logically have a satisfactory explanation.
129. There are innumerable amounts of students who have completely unbalanced minds. 130. The Gnostic disciples must cultivate serenity.

131. Serenity is the most powerful key for the development of clairvoyance.
132. Anger destroys the harmony of wholeness and totally damages the petals of the igneous rose of the middlebrow.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Anger, Clairvoyance
A practice
133. Anger disarranges the astral light into a poison known as IMPERIL which damages the petals of the igneous rose of the middlebrow and obstructs the channels of the grand sympathetic nervous system. It is necessary to rotate the chakra of the clairvoyance with the vowel “I’. This vowel must be vocalized daily prolonging the sound of the vowel in the following manner:
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII (pronounce the “I” as eeeeeeee)
134. We must contemplate the internal images within the august serenity of the flames of blazing thought, without the depressing process of reasoning.
135. In the presence of an internal image, our mind must flow integrally with the sweet flow of thought.
136. Our mind vibrates with waves of discernment among the imaginative pictures. 137. Discernment is direct perception of the truth without the process of conceptual selection.
138. When the process of selection divides the mind between the battle of antithesis, then the internal images are hidden like stars behind the stormy clouds of reasoning. 139. We must learn to think with the heart and to feel with the head.
140. Our mind must become exquisitely sensible and delicate....
141. The mind must liberate itself from all types of bonds, in order to comprehend life, free in its movement.

146. We must always learn to live in the present because life is always an eternal instant. 147. Our mind must convert itself into a flexible and delicate instrument for the Intimate. 148. Our mind must convert itself into a child.
149. During the practices of internal meditation, we must be in the most absolute interior repose, because every agitation of the mind and every attitude or impatience disturbs the mind and impedes the perception of internal images.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in The Science of Meditation
150. In the physical world, every activity is accompanied by the movement of our hands, legs, etc.. However, in the internal worlds, we need the most profound internal repose and absolute calmness in order to receive the internal images that come to the mind like a grace...like a blessing.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17

Fraternity.

157. We must cultivate the same courtesy for the rich and the poor and for the aristocrat and the peasant in order to equally attend to them without any preferences.

179. There is the need to learn how to control the verb and to know how to calculate with exactness the result of our words.
180. One word can serve as a blessing to one person, yet as an insult to another. 181. Therefore, we must calculate very well the result of a word before it is uttered. 182. The Lords of Karma judge the results of actions without taking into account the good intentions.
183. Our mind must be simple and humble and filled with the most profound respect. 184. Our disciples must carefully avoid any argument in order not to waste their energy uselessly.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17 also in Anger
185. Whosoever wants to accept the doctrine of the Gnostics, let him accept it. Whosoever does not want to accept it is not yet mature. Therefore, it is useless to form an argument in order to convince such an individual.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 17
A practice
186. “Let arguments be forbidden; let discord with words crumble away; let all the weeds clear the way.”

Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 19
27. The stronger the restraint of the act is, and the more violent the fight is, the more potent will be the seminal steam that will rise. Thus, the force of the ascension of the Kundalini will be more terrific.

Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 19
42. It is indispensable that the solar atoms of the seminal system make contact with the lunar atoms of the cephalous rachidial liquid in order to awake the sacred fire. 43. If we waste the solar atoms, we will then have no capital in order to make an atomic combination, which permits the awakening of the Kundalini by means of sexual magic. 44. The Kundalini is of an absolutely sexual nature and it is only possible to awaken it by means of sexual alchemy.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 19

11. These are the commands of the Lord Jehovah. Everyone who violates these
commands will be cast into the burning lake of fire and sulphur. This is the second death. 12. The second death si a psychic death.

17. Trillions of solar atoms are lost in the seminal ejaculation (orgasm). Afterwards, in order to replace them, our sexual organs collect trillions of satanic atoms from the infernos of the human being. These satanic atoms are absorbed within the astral body and give it the appearance of Satan.

The seven serpents are raised by sexual magic with one's spouse, and fornication is forbidden because the solar and lunar channels must stay pure for the Pure Akasa. The Great Arcanum is to connect with the spouse and withdraw without ejaculation, and the Arhat stays watchful when wealth and erotic chances are offered him.
3. Fine temptations assault you in the world of cosmic understanding.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28

9. The Pure Akasa circulates through the Shushumna channel, and its two solar and lunar currents make contact in the magnetic field of the nose when we practice sexual magic intensely.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28 also in Elemental Magic
12. These solar and lunar channels must be totally pure so that the solar and lunar currents can circulate freely through its ganglionic cords, and in order for the Pure Akasa of the Shushumna channel to flow freely through the spinal column.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28 also in Elemental Magic
A practice
13. This is the reason why every type of fornication is forbidden for Gnostics, as well as for Yogis and Mystics.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28
14. When these three vital airs are strengthened by the might of willpower, then fornicators are converted into black magicians. However, the holy and chaste human beings are converted into white magicians.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28
16. During the sexual act, our seminal substance descends into its corresponding cavity... When this seminal substance is spilled, we then lose millions of christic solar atoms. Instantaneously, these solar atoms are substituted by millions of demonic atoms, which enter into the Brahmanic cord by means of the contractions of the genital orgasmic movements. Thus, if we strengthen the three vital airs of Pure Akasa by means of our willpower, then the mixing of Akasa with these demonic atoms, which were collected from the infernos of the human being, result in the awakening of the luciferic serpent (Kundartiguador). Hence, this is a negative and demonic way...
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28 also in Elemental Magic
A practice
30. There are the seven serpents that the human being must raise by intensely practicing sexual magic with his spouse. They can also be raised by means of the strength of the sacrifice of a total and definitive sexual abstention, as performed by the authentic Yogis who follow the path of perfection, or as performed by the sublime mystics, Ramakrishna, Francis of Assisi, or Anthony of Padua.

64. Then, directing his penetrating eyes towards me, with a loud and authoritative voice, he told me: “Uncover your CHE-CHE-RE.” I then uncovered my sexual organ, and the Master told me, from lips to ear, the once unspeakable secret of the Great Arcanum, which consists of sexually connecting oneself with the spouse and withdrawing from her without seminal ejaculation, which means, to restrain the sexual act.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28
68. When the semen is not spilled, then the restrained desire causes our seminal energy to rise, filled with billions of christic atoms. With their light and splendour these christic atoms illuminate the three channels where the Pure Akasa circulates.
69. The mixture of these christic atoms (which are the result of our semen transmuted into energy), when combined with the Pure Akasa awakens the Kundalini positively, and
opens its way upwards towards Brahmarandra, through the thirty-three chambers of our spinal column. This is how Adepthood is achieved.
Igneous Rose, 1954 Chapter 28 also in Elemental Magic
73. When the Akasa is reinforced by our willpower and by the willpower of the Cosmic Hierarchies, then it descends from above, from the heavens of Urania and it is
precipitated within the profundity of our reed, producing the hissing sound of the SSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
74. Thus, when this Akasic breath collides with the solar and lunar currents and with the christic atoms which form the Kundalini, the sacred fire then rises one more vertebra, one more canon in its ascension through the thirty-three canons until reaching Brahmarandra. 75. When the Akashic breath, reinforced by willpower, descends through our Brahmanic cord and finds atoms of fornication (satanic atoms collected from the infernos of the human being during the movements of the genital orgasmic contraction, which occurs in the seminal ejaculation) instead of Christic atoms, the collision of the Akasa with such satanic atoms would then awaken the Kundalini in a negative way (awakening the
Kundartiguador). A satanic atom that resides in the Muladhara chakra would then enter into activity, and would control it causing it to descend from the coccyx downwards towards the atomic infernos of the human being, forming the famous tail with which Satan is represented (the Kundartiguador).

The student vocalizes SOLU-SIGI-SIG, the name of the Kundalini, prolonging each letter, and grows sleepy on the soft hiss of S until, at the edge of sleep, he simply gets up and goes out to the Gnostic Church in the astral body. To strengthen the will for sexual magic he practises the rune THORN, a hand on the waist or hip, vocalizing TI-TE TO-TU-TA and then the mantram THORN. He also does the exercise of the Aztec OLIN, moving the arms from the waist to the left side and back while vocalizing THORN.

The Bible speaks to us of this sweet and affable hiss in the following verses: “And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before Jehovah. And, behold, Jehovah passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before Jehovah; but Jehovah was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake; but Jehovah was not in the earthquake:

heroically control sexual magic.
27. Our disciples must perform this exercise by placing their hand upon their waist or hip and then vocalizing the syllables TI-TE TO-TU-TA, prolonging the sound of each vowel. They must then vocalize the mantra THORN as follows:

About this booklet. Corrected 9 October 2026. Earlier versions of this booklet gave some of the Master's early passages on awakening the Kundalini without noting his later teaching that it awakens only through the couple. Notes now sit beneath those passages, and our own headings have been put right. With thanks to the reader who pointed it out.
How this was made. The whole book was read, not searched: all 2,089 paragraphs, 47,743 words, each judged by two independent readers working from a written brief, in four runs of whole chapters. The two agreed on whether to print 94.7% of the time. A third reader, who was not told what either had decided, settled the 110 paragraphs where they differed. 536 paragraphs were judged printable, and they make the 290 passages here: 150 practices and 140 passages of the teaching those practices need.
What stays in the book. The visions told for their own sake, the doctrine of the bodies and the initiations where no practice rests on it, the scripture that opens a chapter, the repeated lines, and the polemic. Nothing printable came from the Introduction, and chapters 7, 8, 13, 18, 22 and 24. They are teaching and vision, and they are worth reading in the book itself.
The plant rites. Chapter 15 has eleven plant headings of his, and ten of them carry passages here. Myrrh has none, because what the book gives under it is doctrine (the Monads, the Vedic planes and the Tattwas) and no rite.
Only the scanner’s damage was repaired. Words the scan split in two, such as treme ndous and go vern, are closed up, but only where his own books print the whole word. SAMADH1, Iamb and Baalimwho are printed as SAMADHI, lamb and Baalim who, as the library prints them elsewhere, and the rune THOROS as the rune THORN, as this book names it eight verses later. One plant heading that had run into the verse before it has been lifted out. Each repair is listed in the build record, and none is marked on the page.
