This engraving, friends, is entitled at the top of it with these words: “STUDY IS THE CAUSE OF TRANQUILITY.”
However, Gnostically speaking, it would be better to entitle it “MEDITATION AND PRAYER ARE THE CAUSE OF TRANQUILITY.”

The weighing of the worlds, Robert Fludd

This beautiful engraving appears before our eyes to show us the balance of dimensions and worlds in interstellar space. That is why it is called the “Weighing of the Worlds.” That is, it shows how the Architect of the Universe considers that the energies of the Cosmos are distributed, and does so through a scale that designates where the superior energies are and where the inferior ones are.

Unquestionably, all of us who try to live the Secret Path that Gnosis teaches us, must be very clear about the immediate need to know how to pray, to know how to live and to know how to die.

The present engraving, in addition to its beauty, reminds us of the archetypes linked to eternity that we find in the sacred scriptures of all times.

Dear readers, regardless of whether you want to see the goddess Diana associated in this engraving in the company of another deity, what does interest us in Gnosis is the relationship of the chaste Diana with our Divine Mother and the enormous work of hunting down our innumerable psychological aggregates that we carry in our psychic entrails.

Only virtue is exempt from death, Emblemata Liber, Boissard

V.M. Kwen Khan Khu
”Sola virtus est funeris expers” (Only virtue is exempt from death) 850 480 V.M. Kwen Khan Khu

What does all this mean?
It means, esteemed readers, that the only thing that has true meaning in our existence is to live for the BEING and His virtues. The BEING is everything and is capable of defeating death. With the BEING we continue in the region of the dead but enjoying dignity, intelligence, Consciousness and enjoying a fullness that is difficult to define.

The sleeping humanity, which has no sacred individuality, appreciates more the things that constitute the egoic fantasy instead of longing to get closer to the Christic world.
