With universal brotherhood as
its aim, our spirit aspires to the cosmic “dictame” of liberated souls. Our
being has come from the Principle Creator from whom all that is intelligible
emanates, and our being remains the manifestation of the Element Principle
like
the Cosmos itself. With universal brotherhood as its aim, our spirit aspires to
Unity.
Man among
men, Angel among angels, one and the other, the other like the one, they have
received from God the understanding of the breath of His Mouth. Man among men,
Angel among angels, they translate the Word of God which is God 's own being.
This
fragment of an exploded Sun became our Earth. Our Earth was entrusted to the
Angel so that Humanity should make its dwelling there. Our Earth is the
fragment of an exploded Sun.
With
universal fraternity as our aim, our heart expands with all liberated souls,
with all its pathetic aspirations, with all its immense desire for fraternity,
our heart expands to the level of cosmic communions, with universal fraternity
as its aim.
Responsibility
is born at the heart of man, from the freedom which give Light. Light itself is
liberty.
The hostile
shadow, the shadow of the Hostile managed to stifle the voice of the heart, of
the luminous heart which longed to speak :
“I listen in the unexpressed sound of opaque silence to the voice yet unheard
and I await a new call.”
In this way
the voice of remorse was to be born, and the voice of gratitude.
“I try to revive the flame that can't be seen.”
Let the
older members of the angelic Race come to the aid of men, since an angel is
assigned to each human being, just as an angel is assigned to each star.
“And the flame found a voice, and the sound was visible: Speech.” A golden spark from the word created the galaxy which constantly stretches
away to infinity, a blue serpent scattered with stars.
The Soul of
the Real is still the mind which makes liberated material responsible. A new
cycle for an atom destined to procreate worlds in its turn through a movement
which may be thought anarchic, but which is guided by the lines and numbers of
the Supreme Geometrist of the World.
Who knows
if the fragment is not responsible as the human and divine awareness?
The
imperfect image of the former ages, an image identical to the image reflected
in new awarenesses, promised as we are to the Light. This Light binds [us]
through the gift of liberty to responsibility.
“The
Creator Principle, the source of Infinite, Universal Life, cosmic in its range,
had conceived, through a purely intelligible [means], The Principle element =
The Spiritual Light.”
At the
speed of light known by men, in all the directions of the rays of light from a
point, for a thousand centuries, the True has travelled straight paths and
never found an obstacle: perfect Emptiness. Nothing can be fuller of all that
may be held by the heart of one who love Tao!
The Creator
Principle in Endless Rest.

The
Invisible has come down to us and we have heart His voice in our hearts.
The
Invisible has come down to us and the wise make an effort to explore the depths
of His words.
I know that
I know nothing and what I hear is Silence. Silence which is the source of all
discourse, the Great Rest which is the source of all action.
Knowledge,
Speech, Silence, Ignorance, Unique Great Knowing : the Way marked out by Light.
Perfect Emptiness, total Ignorance = Universal Knowing.

In the
Transience of earth as each day goes by, and time is divided into seconds,
minutes, and hours, in the Transience of earth, the Invisible came down to make
us feel, see and hear His Eternity which is Emptiness, Rest, and Not-Knowing.
From this was born our silent impetus towards the Happiness unknown to our
measurable intensities. The Invisible has come down to us and this is His
Message.

Emptiness-Rest
watched the light which marked a groove in its infinite length and
Emptiness-Rest loved the child of Its Thought which in Himself was like Its
Thought.
“Et Deus Vidit lucem
quod esset bona.”
*

The light
is substance and Substance is One. Substance is spirit when It manifests the
Thought which is what It is.
Substance
is matter when It accepts Rest in Its various intensities.
Essence is
Principle.
I love to
recreate in my thought the ecstatic minutes of Emptiness-Rest which abide from
eternities.

From the
diversity of the doctrines arises directly and purely Oneness of Doctrine,
without formulation by the universal Not-Knowing from which all Wisdom arises.
A Virgin
who is pure and lovable announces from honeyed lips the decrees of superhuman
wisdom.
Ambassadress
of Being, she comes and delivers us from the torment of centuries which limit
and shatter the recognition of our not-knowing.
From the
diversity of the doctrines arises directly and purely the One Pure Doctrine of
the Unexpressed.
To stifle
the Heart's Voice which they find in their own heart, men pursue other men to
kill the voice which is even so their own voice.
This voice
which is a mystic impetus and it moves from rarefaction to rarefaction, to
ethereality to ethereality, beyond all density to find the Emptiness, the Rest,
the Silence which is the voice of Tao.
The mystery
of the Invisible reigns in the Visible and no one can see the golden key of the
infinite Domain.
The dense
massed materiality which totally surrounds the Unthinkable Rest gives no life
to all formations of thought.
The
emanating Principle, emanating from Itself, its own Essence : First Emanated.
Immortal its memory produced Being.
The mystery
of the Invisible reigns in the Visible. My closed eyes farsighted as they are
through some inner mystical glance, at last discover the heavenly cup that the
Invisible, the Indivisible, the Unthinkable and the Impenetrable holds out to
dry lips: the “dictame” kept only for initiates.
From
Intelligible Life which is limitless, the Element-Principle has appeared
clearly : eternal Will, infinitely present.
The
luminous freedom which crosses Heaven met Pride … since then freedom has
ceaselessly given birth to death.
(Lightning,
red and black, of a fate which drums close at hand.)
From
Intelligible Life, which is also infinitely good, emerges pardon. A comfort for
dazzled eyes, “dictame” for the eyes of all the poor who have been waiting.
Thus from
splendour to splendour, limitless and present, the Wise man's thought serenely
considers (this thought comes from Tao) the sterile agitation of those who do
not know, those who will die.
For a valid
return to the Father's house one must first go far, very far towards the
horizon which is marked on the crests of waves which commune with the Heaven
which curves down to them.
The call
for return is made all the more loudly to the isolated soul when the distance
is greater between the point where the soul is and the point to which it must
return.
It is the
precise diameter of the oppositions which brings us closer. For the curve must
be travelled according to the ascetic tradition of the points which on the
circumference are linked together and receive each one: the sign and
countersign of the fraternal union for the return to the Father: in this way
the words will be exact and perfect.
The golden
Crow return at the end of the day towards the Western dwelling, and on the
morrow dawn will become a dove in the East.
The message
contained in words which have not been uttered, speech absolutely silent from
closed mouths, too soon …
The message
which is not formulated in profane sounds still becomes legible in thought,
fraternally offered by one who meditating in a suitable ascetic setting listens
to the silence becoming audible through this expected message.
Thus the
message from lips too soon closed comes and decorates with flowers the exile of
the one who is visited by Tao and who raises towards the sun hands which form a
chalice.
The message
from closed cold lips comes and decorates with flowers the exile of the one
meditating just as the ocean wave comes and dies on the beach as it drinks thirstily
the yellow sand.
Thought
draws on itself, receptive to all human and divine messages which are as yet
unformulated, message which the heart will transmit, a new sun, in the rhythm
of rediscovered love.
Charity
allows every daring flight of metaphysical curiosity, impelled endlessly by a
greater desire for Lover ever more vast.
From the
daring of cerebral researches and the keenness of the answers given by the
heart, are born the “thought-images” with flashing colours.
Charity
makes one refuse oneself what one may later give others. Restriction encourages
generosity, part of the paradoxical economy of Tao.
Charity
again brings a recognition of the necessary measure of oneself, and brings
about the wish for the last place as the only comfortable one.
Would that
I could preserve beyond the world, beyond the worlds, the point within the
triangle and the triangle within the circle. Charity, economy, humility.
A
wonderworker will be the one whose charity will be marvellous, and whose mind
vision looks well beyond what the eyes of the flesh see.
All is
within all, if, within all, there is the charitable point of the one who knows.
What does he know?
He knows
that curses do harm to the one who utters them. He knows that the circle is
always closed on the thought which postulates its consequences. The circle can
only be closed at the exact point where it begins, and this is lost in the
wholeness of the line which returns to its beginning.
How will I
recognise the master? by his clear awareness that he knows nothing. How would
he be able to know when the circle is closed? A line which is not closed by
itself would not be able to give definition to the circle.
‘Nothing is
simpler than Unity : the Unity of point, of triangle, of circle.” That is how
the Voice of the Silence speaks, that is what i have said.
