The debate with the old workman continues, and he assures Peter he is no demagogue: I am not such a fool in my old age that, understanding what is true, I should deny it for the favor of the rabble. Niceta proposes that Peter be the master of the debate, … Continue reading

The Golden Book & Saint Clement
Boris Mouravieff, when teaching on polar-beings in Gnosis, references the existence of the Golden Book, an oral (if also incomplete) compilation of Jesus’ teachings to the inner circle of disciples. It is only fair to point out that (like the exoteric-esoteric paradox of Christianity itself), the idea of a written … Continue reading
Tradition & the General Law
Before beginning this post, several definitions of terms peculiar to Boris Mouravieff’s work: “A Influences” : sensate pressures and resulting spiritual tendencies, along with the cosmic hierarchies which keep them in “tutelage” (see St. Paul in Galatians 4) “General Law“: the karma which keeps the men in bondage to the … Continue reading
When the King Enjoys His Own Again
When Cromwell presided over the Puritanification (and therefore, the ultimate modernization) of England, the common people were not necessarily fooled as to what the end result would be. For them, it was mainly about the lack of charity and feasting, yet the beginning of the song makes clear that they … Continue reading

Recapitulation
The doctrine of Recapitulation can be deduced from that of karma and sexual union. Continue reading
Harmonics
In order to win the daily battle, we may resort to any number of tactics which can strengthen the “core” of man by magnetizing the higher centers of his personality, including plain music. As several correspondents on this site have suggested, there may be a harmonic basis for this in … Continue reading
The Guardian of the Threshold
One of the biggest problems with modern political entities is the question of cybernetics, or “the helmsmen” : who watches the Watchers? Who guards the guardians? This problem is not very effectively answered today; if there was a famine in the year 1200, you knew where the nobleman who was … Continue reading
Fears of What May Be, Erring Popes & Councils
Extra Ecclesiam non est salus &mda without (outside) the Church there is no salvation. This was the motto of the Christian Church during the Medieval Era, and (supposedly) that which is objectionable in the Church today – the neo-pagans argue that the Church assimilated and reduced what it could not … Continue reading
