imself is on. it will have become apparent to all occult students who have studied with care the world processes in the light of the law of correspondences, that the logos on the cosmic planes is evolving inner cosmic vision, just as man in his lesser degree is aiming at the same vision in the system. this might be called the development of the cosmic third eye. in the physical plane structure of the eye lies hid the secret and in its study may come some revelation of the mystery. a certain part of the eye is the nucleus of sight, and the apparatus of vision itself; the remainder of the eye acts as a protecting shell, and both parts are required, and neither can exist without the other. so in this greater case, only the analogy exists on such high levels that words only blur and dim the tr

one that is absolutely under control. of these three, it might be said that the physical posture is of the least importance, and that the position in which the aspirant can the soonest forget that he possesses a physical body is the best. it might be generally laid down that an upright position in a comfortable chair, with the spine erect, the feet crossed naturally, the hands folded in the lap, the eye closed, and the chin a little dropped is the best posture for the occidental aspirant. in the east there is a science of postures and about eighty-four different positions, some of them most intricate and painful, are listed. this science is a branch of hatha yoga and is not to be followed by the fifth root-race; it is a remnant of that yoga which was necessary and sufficient for the lemur

should be borne in mind that the eight means of yoga do produce definite effects in the lower nature and that this causes certain unfoldments and experiences to take place; these put the aspirant more consciously en rapport with the interior planes in the three worlds. this is a safe and necessary process provided it is the outcome of the awakening of the man on his own plane, and the turning of the eye of the soul, via the mind and the third eye, upon these planes. the presence of the lower psychic power may, however, mean that the soul is (from the physical plane standpoint) asleep and unable to use its instrument, and that these experiences are therefore only the result of the activity of the solar plexus producing awareness of the astral plane. this type of psychism is a reversion to

ation of suffering is the noble eightfold path. it was the realisation of the urgency of man's need to be delivered from his own desire-nature which led christ to emphasise the necessity to seek the good of one's neighbor in contra-distinction to one's own good, and to advise the life of service and self-sacrifice, of self-forgetfulness and love of all beings. only in this way can man's mind and "the eye of the heart" be turned away from one's own needs and satisfaction to the deeper demands of the race itself. until a man stands upon the path of perfection, he cannot really grasp the imperative demand of his own soul for release from the search for outer, material, tangible satisfaction, and from desire. it has been this demand which indicated the soul's need to incarnate and to function

extent of evoking the subtler side of the sense of sight. a man can then see etherically and can see the etheric counterpart of all tangible forms. this is physiological and not a psychic- 367- a treatise on the seven rays- volume ii: esoteric psychology ii copyright 1998 lucis trust power and is quite different to clairvoyance. there can be no etheric vision apart from the usual organ of vision, the eye. the sensing and the registering of this light in the head can lead to its own peculiar problems when the process is not correctly understood or controlled, just as the registering of the energy of power (coming from the mind in its will aspect or from the soul through the will petals) can prove definitely detrimental to the personality, when not consecrated or refined. again, this registe

the mechanism of perception is developed as it surely can be. the sounds and sights of the heavenly world (as the mystics call it) are as clearly perceived by the higher initiate as are the sights and sounds of the physical plane as you contact it in your daily round of duties. the world of energies, with its streams of directed force and its centres of concentrated light is likewise present, and the eye of the see-er can see it, just as the eye of the mental clairvoyant can see the geometrical pattern which thoughts assume upon the mental plane, or as the lower psychic can contact the glamours- 31- telepathy and the etheric vehicle copyright 1998 lucis trust the illusions and delusions of the astral world. the subjective realm is vitally more real than is the objective, once it is entered

ence, and when man has reached his goal, each triangle is a radiant path of fire, and each centre a wheel of living fiery force rotating at terrific speed; the centre at this stage not only rotates in a specific direction, but literally turns upon itself, forming a living flaming iridescent globe of pure fire, and holding within it a certain geometrical shape, yet withal vibrating so rapidly that the eye can scarcely follow it. above all, at the top of the head will be seen a fiery display that seems to put all the other centres into insignificance; from the heart of this many-petalled lotus issues a flame of fire with the basic hue of a man's ray. this flame mounts upward and seems to attract downward a sheet of electric light, which is the downflow from the spirit on the highest plane. t

gdoms in nature but with these we will not deal as we are confining our attention to humanity. aquarius, as you know, is one of the arms of the fixed cross. this cross is outstandingly the cross of discipleship and of the three major initiations in connection with which it might be pointed out that: 1. in taurus desire is transmuted into aspiration, darkness gives place to light and illumination, the eye of the bull is opened which is the spiritual third eye, or the "single eye" of the new testament "if thine eye be single" said the christ "thy whole body shall be full of light" this single eye takes the place of the two eyes of the personal self. the attention of the man becomes focussed upon spiritual attainment. he treads the path of discipleship. 2. in leo the self-centred man becomes

y have already demonstrated much in connection with its declarative powers, where disease is concerned. they are on right lines. nevertheless, the science with which they are working is so embryonic as yet that their conclusions are not fully demonstrated nor entirely reliable. in the immediate future, when our planetary life is somewhat calmer, the whole subject of vision and the registration by the eye of the inner worlds will receive an enormous impetus, and conditions hitherto undreamed of will be revealed. man will enter into a new life and a higher era of understanding. the teaching concerning the iris of the eye is an indication of this. why not read up on the eye a little and note its occult correspondences to the created world, and to the whole problem of light? the eyes and the s

the so-called informative aspect of these reports is relatively negligible as such to groups like this. but the symbolic usefulness is great and has a definite group usefulness. one suggestion i will make. at the time of your full moon approach to me, endeavour to have in your consciousness the words from formula one (given in section three "upon the stream, between the two extremes, there floats the eye of vision" you need to remember that from one point of view these symbols are related to the antahkarana, that line between two points, and that as you build the antahkarana in your own lives so will be the growth of your understanding of the formula. as you progress upon the "way of the chela" so will grow your power. use the formula actively as far as you can and do not rest satisfied wi

y and deliberately engineered, of the individual soul with the group soul, and later with the hierarchy via my ashram. to do this work correctly, we will start with the premise that "energy follows thought" this is the first and most fundamental, as well as the most ancient, premise of the esotericist. the second is related to the first and will have a place in our considerations. it states that "the eye, opened by thought, directs the energy in motion" disciples, during the early stages of their training, are apt to regard energy as a pool or a reservoir upon which they can learn to draw, thus appropriating a quota of that energy for their need, their service and their use. but energy is fluid and in motion; we live in a veritable sea of moving forces, qualified in countless ways, conditi

the atom, to man, to the planet and to the solar system. the concept must constitute the foundational idea in all reflection upon this formula. now for the formula itself "a line of fire between two blazing points. a stream of water blue again a line emerging from the earth and ending in the ocean. a tree with root above and flowers below "out of the fire, and always at the midway point, appears the eye of god (shiva. upon the- 173- discipleship in the new age- volume ii copyright 1998 lucis trust stream, between the two extremes, there floats the eye of vision a thread of light unites the two "deep in the tree, between the root and flowers, the eye again is seen. the eye that knows, the eye that sees, the directing eye one made of fire, one fluid as the sea, and two which look from here

resources demons bios fiction tyson the truth about the evil eye (magic charm in the shape of a hand gesture to ward off the evil eye) the evil eye does exist. your eighty-five year old sicilian grandmother was right after all. but it doesn't function in quite the way she imagined. the true evil eye is not in the head of some elderly woman who casts her malicious, bloodshot glance your way- it is the eye through which you look upon your own world. the belief that misfortune can somehow be projected onto one person by another through a glance is ancient and universal. it was based on a misunderstanding of how the faculty of vision functions. centuries ago it was thought that the eye perceives the outer world by projecting forth invisible rays onto external objects such as trees, mountains

underlying beliefs about the evil eye. the evil eye in its purest form was understood to be the deliberate projection of a ray of occult energy with the malicious intention to cause harm. several factors were thought to make it more powerful. if the person sending it was from a family or tribe noted for works of black magic, it would derive increased power from this hereditary predisposition. if the eye from which the evil was projected was bloodshot, or deformed in some way, this also increased its force. if a glance from the evil eye was sent in a sidelong way, from the corner of the eye of the malicious person, it was more powerful. most important of all, the effect was believed fatal if the person "overlooked" by the evil eye actually met the malicious gaze directly. there are various

e harmful effects of this baleful sidelong glance. laughter was thought to weaken its power. other forms of ridicule, such as a bared backside, were also effective. a mirror could be used to reflect the ray back upon the person sending it out. similarly, a shiny object such as a large, bright piece of jewelry attracted the focus of the person projecting the malicious ray, so that it did not enter the eye of the victim directly. another good defense was to carry the image of an eye as jewelry or embroidered into clothing or as a tattoo- the belief was that the ray from this artificial eye would extend itself first and displace the ray from the evil eye. these artificial eyes were sometimes realistic, but often they were highly stylized and almost unnoticed in the pattern of cloth or the dec

fear. the wolf was then free to attack and kill the man, since he could neither run away nor cry out to attract the attention of others. this spell of the evil eye would persist, even if the wolf came out from hiding so that the man could look upon it. however, if it happened that the man saw the wolf first, the gaze of the wolf would lack its paralyzing effect. it was believed that the ray from the eye of the man extending itself to the wolf prevented the ray from the wolf's eye from reaching the man- the same theory that caused individuals to wear images of eyes on their clothing. no such complication existed in the myth of the basilisk, a serpent whose gaze falling upon a man at once made him immobile. we still have a remnant of this ancient belief in the form of the folk tale that say

n, have been murdered on the twin charges of witchcraft and the evil eye. it would be difficult to maintain that there is no such thing as the evil eye, when the belief is so widespread across both time and cultural boundaries. at the same time it is obvious that the traditional explanation as to how the evil eye works must be incorrect. how then does it work? when a malicious glance is sent from the eye of a spiteful person directly into the eye of another person who is susceptible to suggestion, and is predisposed to anticipate supernatural attacks and resulting misfortunes, it implants itself in the imagination of the victim like a black seed, and begins to grow, nourished by the fear and expectation of the victim. as a result, the mind of the person assaulted by the evil eye turns agai

cious actions. in effect, those afflicted by the evil eye become their own assassins. even when they do not utterly poison their lives, they can cause great suffering to themselves and by extension to those around them. their suffering is real, and because they are at war against themselves, it is difficult to help them. even though there is no malicious ray or agent transmitted across space from the eye of the spiteful person to the eye of the victim, the effect of turning one's own subconscious mind against oneself can be deadly. yet it is scarcely fair to blame the person who triggered this self-destructive cycle merely because that person looked at the sufferer in an unfriendly manner. indeed, many who suffer from the effects of the evil eye can not even blame it on the malicious wishe

the black seed implanted in the subconscious mind of the victim. it stands to reason that if a man can turn his own deep mind into his enemy, he can also turn it into his friend. in the same way a person can persuade himself that he is cursed because of a glance from a passing stranger, so can he persuade himself that he is cured from that curse by following the instructions of a fortune-teller. the eye of the stranger has no power. neither do the instructions of the fortune-teller. all power lies in the mind of the self-elected victim. if you believe that you are the victim of the evil eye, and are suffering misfortunes because someone has cast a hateful glance upon you, this is what you may do to cure yourself. take a piece of paper and a pen, and draw an eye upon the paper. turn it ove

by prehistoric peoples, because objects similar in appearance and general description to amulets have been discovered in neolithic tombs. the ancient egyptians possessed a bewildering variety of amulets, worn by both the living and the dead. indeed, among the latter, every part of the body had an amulet sacred to itself. these were, as a rule, evolved from various organs of the gods; for example, the eye of isis, the backbone of osiris, and so forth. among savage and semicivilized peoples, the amulet usually took the form of necklaces, bracelets, or anklets, and where belief in witchcraft and the evil eye was strong, the faith in these and in charms was always most intense. stones, teeth, claws, shells, coral, and symbolic emblems were favored amulets. these item were seen to carry specifi

since it is thought that pure spirit cannot be perceptible to the physical senses. but a compromise has been made in the idea of a psychic body, midway between soul and body, which theosophists and some spiritualists theorize clothes the soul at the dissolution of the physical body. the psychic body is said to be composed of very fine and subtle material particles, perceptible as a rule, only to the eye of the clairvoyant. it is this astral body, and not the soul, that is seen as an apparition. experimental evidence for these and various alternative theories has proven far from conclusive. since its formation in 1882, the society for psychical research and its sister organizations, have collected numerous instances of coincidental hallucinations, many of which were recorded in the monumen

HANDBOOK OF EGYPTIAN MYTHOLOGY

non for over 3,000 years.11 myths often focus on episodes of intense conflict or tragedy, but the egyptian rules of decorum usually made it impermissible to illustrate such episodes in formal art. the images used in art were felt to have power to affect the real world, so order had to be shown triumphing over chaos and good over evil. violent mythical episodes such as that in which seth tears out the eye of horus were not represented directly. the king and the gods from the first dynasty onward, every egyptian king was called a horus. the extent to which egyptian rulers were regarded as divine is much disputed,12 but the kings of the early dynastic period certainly enjoyed more power and responsibility than anyone else in their culture. they were rulers of the first large nation-state in h

the pyramid complexes of the old kingdom, new kingdom temples were models of the egyptian cosmos.47 the undulating mud-brick walls that surrounded temples may have represented the primeval waters that were thought to surround the inhabited world. sacred lakes were used for reenactments of myths of the emergence of the creator from the primeval waters or for the pacification of his fiery daughter, the eye goddess. in the outer courtyard the king was represented in reliefs or colossal statues as the champion of maat. the battles that he was shown fighting were sometimes real and sometimes imaginary, but the foreign enemies always represented the forces of chaos.48 the massive pylon gateways resemble defensive structures, but they also stood for the mountains of the eastern horizon, between w

liefs and traditions for the first time. respect for ancient traditions was a policy of the nubian kings who ruled egypt as the twenty-fifth dynasty. these kings came from an area of nubia known as kush. their culture combined nubian and egyptian elements. the chief religious site in kush was the holy mountain of gebel barkal near ancient napata, where there was a temple for amun-ra and hathor as the eye of ra. king piye (piankh) and his brother king shabaqo (shabaka) were the first two kings of this dynasty to rule egypt. a victory inscription of king piye (c. 747 716 bce) is full of references to egyptian deities and myths. it records that he seized the capital memphis like a desert storm, just as amun-ra had commanded me. 71 some pyramid tombs of nubian kings near napata are inscribed w

val of the beautiful union, which celebrated the coming together of horus and hathor. the festival of victory commemorated the triumph of horus over seth and his followers (see figures 31 and 32. this conflict seems to have been acted out on and around the temple lake.86 a second mythological drama, the legend of the winged disk, has horus defending ra against his enemies, a role usually taken by the eye goddess. the foundation of the temple is traced back to the first time in a series of texts sometimes known as the edfu cosmogony.87 every major ptolemaic temple seems to have had its own creation myth, with the principal deity of the temple playing the role of creator. texts of this introduction 37 type, such as the khonsu cosmogony at karnak,88 use wordplay to incorporate the myths of ot

s, and their modification (mutation) over time. given that life appeared at least 3.5 billion years ago, many changes must have occurred in dna sequences, and hence, many changes must have taken place at the level of cells hardware, the proteins. let us now review the three examples, taken from genetics, that challenge the interpretations of id thinkers and their notion of irreducible complexity: the eye, the immune system, and the bacterial flagellum. in passing, it should be acknowledged that irreducible complexity has been converted recently into specified complexity by some id aficionados. whether or not this means that a designer specified complexity but no longer made it irre- 68 evolution and religious creation myths ducible (perhaps because the notion of irreducibility is untenable

ies. thus, the flies injected with the mouse and human genes developed extra compound eyes on their heads but also on their legs. when the dna of aniridia, pax-6, and eyeless was sequenced, it was obvious that all three genes shared extensive homology. taking into account that flies and mammals have evolved separately for more than 500 million years, these experiments show that the development of the eye, probably at first a very simple light-sensing organ, has remained very much the same for at least that long. we now know that these three genes are control genes, master switches of sorts that control many other genes involved in eye development. these control genes tell organisms to just make eyes, while the other genes under their control fill in the details in a species-specific manner

e (see the buddhism of tibet) in meno, plato, speaking through socrates, describes color as "an effluence of form, commensurate with sight, and sensible" in the tetus he discourses more at length on the subject thus "let us carry out the principle which has just been affirmed, that nothing is self-existent, and then we shall see that every color, white, black, and every other color, arises out of the eye meeting the appropriate motion, and that what we term the substance of each color is neither the active nor the passive element, but something which passes between them, and is peculiar to each percipient; are you certain that the several colors appear to every animal--say a dog--as they appear to you" in the pythagorean tetractys--the supreme symbol of universal forces and processes--are

seeds of all the tone and color potencies which it manifests. there are numerous arbitrary arrangements setting forth the mutual relationships of the planets, the colors, and the musical notes. the most satisfactory system is that based upon the law of the octave. the sense of hearing has a much wider scope than that of sight, for whereas the ear can register from nine to eleven octaves of sound the eye is restricted to the cognition of but seven fundamental color tones, or one tone short of the octave. red, when posited as the lowest color tone in the scale of chromatics, thus corresponds to do, the first note of the musical scale. continuing the analogy, orange corresponds to re, yellow to mi, green to fa, blue to sol, indigo to la, and violet to si (ti. the eighth color tone necessary

s usually the first method which is mainly relied upon, hence the old term, the evil eye. as in love magic, you must first catch the glance of your victim and then hold it. this may prove harder than you think, particularly if your victim is aware of your reputation as a witch. you may have to accomplish it by saying something to the effect of "i never trust a person who won't look me directly in the eye" or even, as a last resort "have you ever noticed how one of my eyes is a different colour from the other" for delivering your curse, make use of the hand-of-power gesture- left arm outstretched, fist clenched, first two fingers pointed at victim. it definitely has dramatic appeal, especially when combined with a certain druidic method of projecting your witch power. this involves standing

come to grief" repeat this same curse to yourself every time you refuse food. the process should last for two weeks- beginning at the full moon, or just after, and ending at the new moon. as the moon wanes, so the dark tide flows swifter. this practice can be effectively camouflaged from your non-witch friends by the simple excuse of dieting. there is more to a so-called hunger strike than meets the eye. the second simple way of laying a curse on somebody is by the candle of bewitchment. here again we make use of constant repetition as a magical device. traditionally, the hour chosen for this operation is the stroke of midnight, but actually the best time for the attack is when you feel your victim is fast asleep, and therefore at his most defenceless. in most cases this would be sometime

ten pentacle by the priestess, divided up by the magister with his athame, and then distributed like wise. on handing the chalice or pentacle to one's neighbour, the words "blessed be" are often uttered. the initial ceremony of the cakes and wine leads on to the actual feast, which is usually contributed to by all the coven members, each bringing some particular delicacy. the food, far from being the eye of newt and toe of frog variety, is the type you would expect to find at any buffet supper. the meal itself does not have to be eaten within the circle, the only ritual proviso being that if the company actually sit down at table, the magister be seated at the head. after the meal is concluded, the sabbat may continue as a regular party with dancing and singing usually of the folk rock var

n our interpretation of the officers of the lodge. now the fact is that the candidate can only see the three greater lights by the help of the three lesser ones. in other words the lesser triad is the instrument by which he beholds the greater one; it is his own perceptive faculty (subject) looking out upon something larger (object) with which it is not yet identified, just as so small a thing as the eye can behold the expanse of the heavens and the finite mind can contemplate infinitude. what is implied, then, is that the lesser lights of the candidate's normal finite intelligence are employed to reveal to him the greater lights or fundamental essences of his as yet undeveloped being. a pigmy rudimentary consciousness is being made aware of its submerged source and roots, and placed in sh

one case by theological and other accretions foreign to the main purpose of religion, and unperceived in the other because its symbolism remains uninterpreted. to clear vision, christian and masonic doctrine are identical in intention though different in method. the one says" via crucis; the other" via lucis; yet the two ways are but one way. the former teaches through the ear, the latter through the eye and by identifying the aspirant with the doctrine by passing him personally and dramatically through symbolic rites which he is expected to translate from ceremonial form into subjective experience. as patristic literature shows, the prim itive metho d of the christian church was not that which now obtains, under which the religious offices and teaching are administered to the whole public

of the domestic harmony which they recognize as a condition favourable to reproduction. i have outlined ideal conditions. rarely indeed can we realize even a third of our possibilities. our magical engine is mighty indeed when its efficiency reaches 50% of its theoretical horsepower. but the enormous majority of mankind have no idea whatever of taking love as a sacred and serious thing, of using the eye of the microscopist, or the heart and brain of the artist. their ignorance and their shame have made love a carcass of pestilence; and love has avenged the outrage by crushing their lives when they pull down the temple upon them. the chance of finding a suitable object of love has been reduced well nigh to zero by substituting for the actual conditions, as stated in the above paragraphs, a

wn nature that enables them to do so: the human being is at the outset a product of sense-experiences, and the mind is as yet nothing more than the interpreter and judge of the senses. the senses would be poor instruments if they did not insist upon their own truth and credibility; an eye would be a bad eye if it did not impress upon us the unconditional reality of what it sees. that is right for the eye. nor is it deprived of its due by the spiritual eye. it is only that the spiritual eye permits us to see the things of sense in a higher light. nothing perceived by the physical eye is thereby denied; and yet a new glory radiates from what is seen, showing that the former perception was only of a lower reality. what is seen remains exactly the same as before, but now it is merged into some

rd the point of focus when it is passing from the universe to the unmanifest, and away from the point when it is manifesting in the universe. in the boundless light of the unmanifest before the creation, the cone may be likened to the will to achieve the desire for self-awareness. what began as a fleeing from the limitless outer reaches of the all became a turning circle, then an inward spiral as the eye of god crossed the boundary of balanced forces and sought to find itself by manifesting a point. thus the spiral began as a negative motion of with- drawal and wrapping inward for protection, then became a positive and active striving to realize the center of self. referring this to the metaphor of the serpent, at the start the undulating ser- pent draws itself inward for protection from t

e universe. the magus can experience nothing beyond the microcosm of his or her personal world, but the microcosm contains the macrocosm of the all. t he point corresponds to the perspective adopted by the observing intelli- gence and is thus a symbol for the self. true self is at the absolute center of the universe. the center of the universe is not a fued point in time and space but is wherever the eye of god pauses to make its observations. any point can be the center of the universe, for all points are one, engendered within the sin- gle point of the unmanifest. the true self of a human being is the observing eye of god, and so is always at the center of the universe. the personal universe of an individual is that part of manifestation which he or she interacts with through the avenues

h along a ray, then looks back from that new viewpoint at the place it has left. this initiates a returning pulse of will that oscillates back and forth with infinite quickness, so that the awareness seems to occupy two points at once. in reality it is shifting from one point to the other so rapidly they seem to merge. the ray is most often symbolized by a line, or a beam of light, extending from the eye (the primary sense organ in modern humans) to the object of desire. the ancients believed, quite naturally, that this was the mechanism by which the sense of sight operated-that through the eye was put forth a power that touched the object looked upon. only when science began to analyze the nature of light was this idea displaced and ridiculed. the eye was then seen as a passive receptacle

nd leads you to believe a lie when you see with, not thro, the eyes blake knew that passive seeing is a pernicious delusion; and that if human beings believe themselves detached from the things they look upon, they must also believe many other fictions destructive of the truth. the view of science is most useful in scientific matters. but in magic the old view is of more practical value. in magic the eye is an organ of immense power. through it individuals can control, and be controlled, by other individuals. it is through the eye that rays of will are most often projected into the circles of the per- sonal universe that lie beyond the sphere of the perceived self. such eye magic is very common among simple peoples of the world. in north africa and india, in the rural regions of italy and

he energy on which all creation exists- knowledge will always be misused. knowledge without love is the state of being which still controls the higher levels of the brotherhood network, via its global elite. it is the intellect without the heart, you could say, and without the balanced feminine. the symbols of the brotherhood in ancient times remain those of the brotherhood today- the pyramid and all-seeing eye, the swastika, the lamb, the apron, the obelisk and many others. the obelisk is symbolic of the penis of osiris, the egyptian god. the legend is that he was torn into pieces by the 'evil' set (lucifer, satan, the devil, et al) and when isis, the wife of osiris, tried to put him back together again, she found all his missing parts, except you know what. such legends are, i feel, symb

the way the extraterrestrial is portrayed on the necklace, credo says, is merely symbolic because these "gods" were of a very distinct and unhuman form (reptilian) and they warned the people of instant death if they ever depicted them as they really looked. thus the "gods" were portrayed symbolically. hanging from the necklace of the mysteries is a large hand, full of symbols. among these are the all-seeing eye, symbolising, credo points out, the "watchers (the same as the illuminati image on the us dollar bill; also there is the constellation of orion, which modern researchers have constantly connected with extraterrestrial activity on earth, especially the reptilians; and a star of david, which is not, contrary to accepted belief, an ancient "jewish" symbol at all. as some jewish histori

here was a still older tradition, which held the circle to be the equator and the dot in the centre to be the pole-star, whose position changes because of the precession of the equinoxes, in which the egyptians took great interest. the inclination of the chief passage of the great pyramid was determined by the position of the pole-star of the period. this symbol was used once more to indicate the all-seeing eye- an idea easily suggested by the dot in the middle of the circle. 114. another interpretation of the symbol by the egyptians was particularly beautiful, and all brn. will find it well worth remembering whenever their eyes fall upon it. the three columns, representing wisdom, strength and beauty, were stated to stand round god fs throne, which was the altar itself, which they took to
