Initiation in the Aeon of the Child

[Luxibis]

"The path of the Initiate does not lead from conception or birth to death, but, on the contrary, leads away from the realm of the dead.

The uninitiated is dead in spirit, buried in kliphothic garbage in the "ancient gray land."

And since he begins the path as a dead man, his first task is to resurrect from death, which the uninitiated call life, and thereby turn the Wheel back in order to become a Child and enter the Mother's womb again.

"The spiritual essence is a secret flame, which is life and the giver of life, reviving the dead Osiris. To awaken this flame from sleep means to illuminate the dark corners of our self with its radiance.

That is why the one who knows it knows death - a state of apathy and inaction.

This the fire releases the corpse from the burial shrouds and endows the hands and feet of Osiris with mobility so that he can set out on the path along the path of Eternity.

This is the highest point of the pentagram, the Heart of every person (Tipheret) and the fifth power of the Sphinx - the ability to GO. And in every person this flame and is what is called Hadit."
