De Adeptis R. C. Escatologia
(Of the Adepts of the Rosy Cross, their Eschatology)
ONSIDER now in this Light what shall come to the
Adept, to him that hath aspired constantly and
firmly to his Star, attuning the Mind unto the
Musick of its Will. In him, if his Mind be knit perfectly
together is itself, and conjoined with he Star, is so strong a
Confection that it breaketh away easily not only from the
Gross Body, but the fine. It is this Fine Body which bindeth
it to the Astral, as did the Gross to he Material World so
then it accomplisheth willingly the Sacrament of a second
Death and leaveth the Body of Light.
But the Mind,
cleaveth closely, by Right of its Harmony, and Might of its
Love, to its Star, resisteth the Ministers of Disruption, for a
Season, according to its Strength.
Now, if his Star be of
those that are bound by the Great Oath, incarnating without
Remission because of Delight in the Cosmic Sacrament, it
seeketh a new Vehicle in the appointed Way, and indwelleth
the Fœtus of a Child, and quickeneth it. And if at this Time
the mind of its Former Tabernacle yet cling to it, then is
there Continuity of Character, and it may be Memory
between the two Vehicles.
This is, briefly and without
Elaboration, the Way of Asar in Amenti, according to mine
Opinion, of which I say not: This is the Truth.
