THE CRAFT: THE ONLY CURE FOR SIN

The curing of sickness, the expulsion of evil spirits, and the expiation of sin, are identical, and must be so treated. The treatment is the Work, the Magnum Opus, the Craft.

Consider these words penned long ago by the prophet Isaiah, “Come now, let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. Isa. 1:18 (The colors white and red are the colors of mushrooms and alchemy.)

Omitted, however, was a full explanation of sin in the light of the Craft.

As servants of the gods, the completion of the Work and the consequent transformation of the human out the evil or sinful status (realm), ignited the divine nature or particle within the body. As Morgenstern states, “It made the human, for all purposes, gods of inferior rank.”

Therefore, to overcome sin meant we became gods or were apotheosized. Viewed in this light when MM overcame sin she became a goddess. We can now say that performing the Great Work made her a Pure One with a Pure Heart. It prepared her to walk the stars with the Lord.

In Tower of Alchemy David Goddard says those who perfected the Divine Work are easy to spot. When spiritual practitioners have achieved a relatively high level of development, their etheric bodies are transformed into gold. They have developed, to a certain degree, the GOLDEN BODY. The gold first manifests externally, then it gradually manifests inwardly into the physical body. This is why some saints of different religions are sometimes depicted with a golden garment or a golden body. It also explains the golden coffins of Egyptian pharaohs.

The alchemists’ furnace, the athanor, was given the shape of a tower to signify that the Craft involved a process of transformation and ascension. Practitioners of Alchemy build their Tower of the Art. Goddard notes in The Tower of Alchemy that the “thought form” of the inner tower or castle has been used by alchemical adepts for centuries.

It is my premise that Mary Magdalene and Jesus cannot be understood without the acknowledgement that (s)he embodied the chief elements of a suppressed, older religion and ancient wisdom tradition called theurgy and that this was what brought both of them into conflict with the religious authorities of Rome.

Jesus and MM were theurgists (from theo, ‘God’, and ur ‘light’). Theurgy, according to R.T. Wallis, “is a system of ritual purification based on a magical view of the universe and derived from the Chaldean Oracles”. Mainly assembled in Alexandria, Egypt two millennia ago, theurgy contains elements of Persian, Greek, Babylonian and Egyptian religions mingled to form a new elixir for the soul. It was taught in Athens until the fifth century AD.

These specialists in the holy initiated students in profound secrets that led to the soul’s salvation. The stairway to heaven and the doorway symbolized salvation. They wielded supernatural powers to influence events and to reunite followers with God or Ultimate Reality.
