“In the Old Testament, Jehovah exhibits all the attributes of old Saturn, notwithstanding his metamorphoses from Adoni into Eloi, and God of Gods, Lord of Lords. Jesus is tempted on the mountain by the Devil, who promises to him kingdoms and glory, if he will only fall down and worship him (Matthew4:8, 9). Buddha is [...]

“The great dissimilarity which exists between the various conceptions of the Devil is really often ludicrous. While bigots will invariably endow him with horns, tail, and every conceivable repulsive feature, even including an offensive human smell, Milton, Byron, Goethe, Lermontoff, and a host of French novelists have sung his praise in flowing verse and thrilling [...]

“St. George's Dragon, which figures so promiscuously in the grandest cathedrals of the Christians, is not a whit handsomer than the Kings of Snakes, the Buddhist Nammadanam-naraya, the great Dragon. If the planetary Demon Rawho, is believed, in the popular superstition of the Cingalese, to endeavor to destroy the moon by swallowing it; and if [...]

If you made an Earnest Sincere Call to your Presence for anything, and you, for an unexpected reason, became voluntarily disturbed, the energy for the Fulfillment could not come forth.

“That of all the various nations of antiquity, there never was one which believed in a personal devil more than liberal Christians in the nineteenth century, seems hardly credible, and yet such is the sorrowful fact. Neither the Egyptians, whom Porphyry terms “the most learned nation of the world”, nor Greece, its faithful copyist, were [...]

“The Sibylline Books at that period seem to have been regarded with extraordinary favor. One can easily perceive that they were inspired from the same source as those of the Gentile nations. Here is a leaf from Gallaeus: “New Light has arisen: Coming from Heaven, it assumed a mortal form. … Virgin, receive God in [...]
