First of all, it is necessary that you know that this engraving is part of the same book that was called Perspective on magic, written by Karl Von Eckartshausen, who lived between 1752 and 1803.
The obeliskhttps://vopus.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/el-obelisco-kwen-khan-khu.png850480V.M. Kwen Khan KhuV.M. Kwen Khan Khuhttps://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e832d7de00772123ef7f897d80b0841daa13143ee04fa7c99f7a066face011ef?s=96&d=mm&r=g
To begin with, we have to say that obelisks were first shown as part of Egyptian architecture. They, the Egyptians, direct descendants of the Atlanteans, arrived in the lands of Cairona and there they began to lay the foundations of what would later be a great empire of both light and great architectural imagery.

I am pleased to send you, on this occasion, another engraving by Karl Von Eckartshausen, which was published in 1790, two years after the first edition. Enigmas of symbology
The danger of losing our ethical values until becoming animal-like creatureshttps://vopus.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/el-peligro-de-perder-nuestros-valores-eticos-hasta-convertirnos-en-criaturas-animaloides-kwen-khan-khu.png850480V.M.

When we try to remember and compare our present with our past we realize that, certainly, through the way of living that exists in our days we have been losing a great many values over time, and this has dragged us toward an enormously superfluous, artificial life devoid of transcendental things.
A reflection on our lifestylehttps://vopus.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/una-reflexion-sobre-nuestro-estilo-de-vida-kwen-khan-khu.png850480V.M. Kwen Khan KhuV.M. Kwen Khan Khuhttps://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e832d7de00772123ef7f897d80b0841daa13143ee04fa7c99f7a066face011ef?s=96&d=mm&r=g
In this way the human race has lost its status as a thinking creature endowed with metaphysical faculties latent in its depths, to end up being a larva that walks but goes nowhere.

According to historians, it is a work of theosophical character that contains various themes of natural philosophy and esotericism, taking elements from Kabbalah and Hermeticism.
The four Tetrasustainershttps://vopus.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/los-cuatro-tetrasustentadores-kwen-khan-khu.png850480V.M. Kwen Khan KhuV.M. Kwen Khan Khuhttps://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e832d7de00772123ef7f897d80b0841daa13143ee04fa7c99f7a066face011ef?s=96&d=mm&r=g
It is important to note that the word tetrasustainers must be interpreted as ‘the four who sustain’… And what do they sustain? Answer: Nothing less and nothing more than our Universe.

First of all, appreciated reader, we must say that this illustration appears in the book entitled Studium Universale, written by Valentine Weigel, who was a German philosopher, writer and mystic from Saxony and, according to some, a precursor of Theosophy.

En el mismo se aprecia que, ciertamente, estos artistas, independientemente de ser grandes exponentes del arte, tenían grandes inquietudes místicas sobre el destino del hombre en su estancia en la tierra. Por ello, el título de este grabado viene a ser, según el artista…

Tomo la pluma para dirigirme a vosotros y, en esta oportunidad, para hablaros de dos grabados ─similares─ y que son originarios del libro Pia Desideria. En ambos se trata del alma, atada a un yugo, moviendo la piedra de un molino o almazara
