So grows the soul of man ever upward,
quenched yet unquenched by the
darkness of night.
I, Death, come, and yet I remain not,
for life eternal exists in the ALL;
only an obstacle, I in the pathway,
quick to be conquered by the infinite
light.
Awaken, O flame that burns ever
inward,
flame forth and conquer the veil of the
night."
Then in the midst of the flames
in the darkness grew there one that
drove forth the night, flaming,
expanding,
ever brighter, until at last was
nothing but Light.
Then spoke my guide, the voice of the
master:
See your own soul as it grows in the
light,
free now forever from the Lord of the
night.
Forward he led me through many
great spaces
filled with the mysteries of the
Children of Light;
mysteries that man may never yet
know of until
he, too, is a Sun of the Light.
Backward then HE led me into the
Light
of the hall of the Light.
Knelt I then before the great Masters,
Lords of ALL from the cycles above.
Spoke HE then with words of great
power saying:
Thou hast been made free of the Halls
of Amenti.
Choose thou thy work among the
children of men.
Then spoke I,
“O, great master,
let me be a teacher of men,
leading then onward and upward
until they,
too, are lights among men;
freed from the veil of the night that
surrounds them,
flaming with light that shall shine
among men.”
Spoke to me then the voice:
Go, as yet will. So be it decreed.
Master are ye of your destiny,
free to take or reject at will.
Take ye the power, take ye the
wisdom.
Shine as a light among the children of
men.
Upward then, led me the Dweller.
Dwelt I again among children of men,
teaching and showing some of my
wisdom;
Sun of the Light, a fire among men.
Now again I tread the path downward,
seeking the light in the darkness of
night.
Hold ye and keep ye, preserve my
record,
guide shall it be to the children of
men.
