Gnosis & The Perfect Matrimony

Gnosis is the precise science to free the soul from suffering. Gnosis has been expressed in countless forms through all the world's major religions, and never has it been absent except in the eyes of its multiple interpretations and adulterations... otherwise, by the uninitiated. It is for this reason that religions have ceased to serve their purpose, which is to teach those souls longing for the Truth how to achieve the very purpose of their existence: the complete Self-Realization of the Being. This timeless and sacred knowledge is Universal, and therefore it is not limited to any sphere of conceptual theory or belief. It is direct experiential knowledge, that one acquires through oneself, which is not a matter of believing or "imagining," but of performing the necessary works. "Know the Truth, and the Truth shall set you free." This book is the complete unveiling of the Key to unlocking the greatest of these Mysteries, and because of its audicity to detail the most controversial of all issues, the Mysteries of Sex, it has been highly contentious to many individuals who consider the sexual act purely as an animal function while ignoring its Divine Purpose. Therefore, after its first publication in 1950, the Catholic Church sought to have the author arrested... and they succeeded. However, this book sprouted the universal Gnostic Movement, inspiring millions to work towards the Self-Realization of the Being... as well as re-establishing the long lost heritage of the Gnostic Church on the face of the earth. Within this book is the precise Science that the Soul must harness in order to reunite with the Divinity, Which has been portrayed by countless religions, all in diverse forms. Many Masters have incarnated The Christ, Which is not individual, but Universal Cosmic Entity: Jesus, Krishna, Buddha, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, etc., etc. The Christ is One and yet Many, which is why it is said, "For all are one in Christ Jesus." (For Yeshua means Saviour). From the Author himself: "We have written this book with broad clarity, we have unveiled what was veiled. Now, whosoever wants to Self-realize in depth can rightly do so. Behold, here is the guide, here is the complete teaching. "We aspire towards only one thing, only one goal, only one objective: Christification. "It is necessary for each human being to Christify himself. It is necessary to incarnate the Christ. "In this book we have lifted the veil of the Christic Mysteries. We have explained what the Christ-principle is. We have invited all human beings to follow the Path of the Perfect Matrimony in order to attain Christification."

Completely Misunderstood and Underestimated

Theories and beliefs abound like weeds, we all know this. What is the point of reading another one? In truth, there is no point. That is why this book deserves all the praise in the world. It has nothing to do with theory, but rather with practical life. Nothing is more practical than sex, for it is the universal epicenter. Samael Aun Weor was hated by many occultist because he unveiled what was veiled. Occultism's Great Arcanum is Sex, and the secret of the initates is Love. This book is authentic Rosicrucian Occultism. The Perfect Matrimony was the first book I read to make any sense of life's sexual issues. So many people today read the scriptures with disdain because society does not teach now to understand them. This is the first book that actually teaches one how to understand the so-called "antiquated" sexual conduct outlined in every religion. Society's utter disregard with the sacred Holy Cross of Man and Woman is more than ample evidence to prove that we do not understand anything about sex. The Perfect Matrimony is direct opposition with both modern religion and the materialistic philosophy that has engendered so much fanatical asceticism and hedonism. This book is not about locking sex up into a concept ("only for procreation") nor is it about pleasure ("have sex with everyone"), but rather it is about comprehending sex. It turns out this is something very difficult. How can we be "born again" if we do not first "die;" how can we be "born again" if we do not understand sex? How can anything be born without sex? What exactly is Jesus telling Nicodemus? The answers are in this book! The author wrote what he experienced, and simply gives the methods to confirm what he wrote. It is up to the reader if he or she wishes to take up those methods. But, to the one who reads this book, let it be known that you will not really understand any of it until you have begun to live it. Spending time with theories and making judgments is something we must end; it makes no sense for someone who has not begun these exercises to make any comments on it. This book is not about flattery, nor is it is not about gaining occult powers. If you are into mysticism and occultism just because it is different and you like the idea of magic powers or occult conspiracies, then waste time somewhere else. This book is just the simple truth, and the truth is harsh. If you are not ready to look at yourself and your life honestly, then go elsewhere. The Perfect Matrimony was written for the person looking for the nothing but the truth, something anterior to our opinions, our family, culture, our particular esoteric society, sect or school. It has nothing to do with the number of rare volumes on our book self, nor the number of years we have spent memorizing them. If you are honestly looking for the Absolute, if you are done wasting time in fascinating theory, if you have finally realized that even the most beautiful theory and good intentions mean nothing, if you would

There Are Two Ways

As a long-time investigator of many different spiritual teachings, I have been exposed to just about every concept and idea one can imagine. Through out the world there are so many "rules" and "laws" and "unshakable" doctrines, it is near impossible for any seeker to find out just what is the truth. That coupled with the Doubt and Cynicism that characterizes the Western mind makes it an unmistakable miracle when anyone finds something that is actually True. There are so many false teachers and false teachings; there are so many books and so many schools: how does anyone find anything and stick to it?The truth is, I have seen everyone I know (including myself) go from school to school, from teaching to teaching and from idea to idea, always looking for something more interesting, something more true to what I believe to be true: and THAT is the catch: I finally figured it out: I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN LOOKING FOR WHAT I LIKE. The problem is, what I like is what has always gotten me into trouble. It's as if I have been trying to fix the problem with the problem. Honestly speaking, since I began looking for spiritual truth, and real experiences, I have been running around and around in the same dumb circles, precisely because I never changed MYSELF. Changing ideas and schools was really my way of avoiding changing. And those times when I fanatically fought for a school or a belief, I was fighting to protect what made me feel like ME. What this book helped me to see is that there are in truth only Two Ways in life. There is the way to change for the better, and there is the way to change for the worse. The problem is, most people only want to take the easy, pleasant, desire-fulfilling way (which, naturally, is the way to change for the worse: because we become more lazy, more fanatical, more full of ourselves, etc.). The way to change for the better is painful precisely because the old me must die.He says in this book that there is one path to reunite with God. It's true: but that path goes in two directions: towards Him, and away from Him. If we follow our minds, our desires, our habits, our whispering thoughts, they will take us only deeper into suffering. The path to Him is the path of INTUITION and comes from the heart. It is the heart that knows the Truth simply because it is true. It is the mind that sows doubt. Be aware, and read this book carefully. It is not as simple as it seems.

What is necessary to awaken positively?

First published in 1950, this book was the first public revelation of the essential secret knowledge of every mystical tradition. Samael Aun Weor is direct and clear in his explanation of the practices necessary to awaken the consciousness POSITIVELY. Few know that everything in nature is a polarity, thus many who believe they are awakening positively are awakening negatively. Few know that most spiritual and mystical traditions have lost the most essential tools to lead their disciples to their own direct personal experience of the divine. Few know that many schools now lead their disciples (knowingly or unknowingly) into grave errors. This book clarifies and restores the knowledge contained in every school, lodge, religion and doctrine, outlining the underlying knowledge that all traditions spring from. An absolutely essential book for anyone who aspires to rise above the mire of the common and vulgar mind.
