    A History of the Gnostic WarriorA History of the Gnostic WarriorA History of the Gnostic WarriorA History of the Gnostic WarriorThe first Gnostic Knight appeared on Earth when humanity began the

    journey of the Spiritual Warrior in search of the Holy Grail that would lead to

    God. The premier Knight manifested in the Garden of Eden of the East, the Pacific

    Continent that Continental Drift Theory refers to as Lemuria and the pan-Pacific

    people know as Mu, Hiva, Kumari Nadu, Havaii-ti-Havaii, Rutas, the Land of

    Rua, etc. This primal Gnostic Warrior was known as Karttikeya (from Krittika, a

    name for the Pleiades), who is said to have arrived from the Pleiades via the

    planet Venus with an entourage of fellow Gnostic Warriors, known collectively as

    the Sons of God. Karttikeya, who is also known historically as Sanat Kumara,

    Murugan, and Skanda, arrived from the heavenly region of his Mother, the

    Cosmic Serpent (the Seven Sisters or Pleiades), on his many-eyed peacock

    (representing and embodying his omnipresence and omniscience). As a Son

    resembling his Mother, Karttikeya possessed six heads, one for each of the six

    visible stars of the Pleiades, and he wielded the Wisdom of the Serpent (Gnosis)

    and the Power of the Serpent (the Force) both of which were represented by hisweapon, the Vel Spear. The shaft of the Vel represented the path of the Serpent

    Power, the human spine, and its head or blade represented the Third Eye, the seat

    of Gnosis. The message embodied by Karttikeyas Vel is that the best weapon of

    the Gnostic Warrior is Gnosis, i.e., inner, intuitive wisdom and guidance.

    The First Fisher KingThe First Fisher KingThe First Fisher KingThe First Fisher KingInitially Karrtikeya founded three headquarters for his Gnostic Warrior

    tradition: Shambhala, and locations upon Lemuria now known as the islands of

    Kauai, and Sri Lanka. At Shambhala, which is now in eastern Asia, Karttikeya built

    a royal palace which he staffed with an entourage of Grail Knights. In his palace

    he served as humanitys first monarch or Fisher King and as the incipient

    possessor of the Holy Grail. Technically, he was the first Holy Grail. He was a

    human chalice full of the Water of Life or Serpent Power.

    Legend has it that the drama that we know of as the Garden of Eden

    occurred on what is now the island of Sri Lanka when it was part of Lemuria. At

    that time God placed Adam on the summit of Adams Peak, which today is the

    location of a temple that holds his five-foot long footprint preserved in stone.

    After descending Adams Peak, the first man encountered Karttikeya, who had

    been sent down as a serpent to Earth by his mother, Sophia, in order to reveal to

    Adam and Eve incipient humanity - their divine nature and the path to self-

    knowledge. Karttikeya appeared in the Garden of Eden as the Serpent on theTree and proceeded to awaken gnosis within the first couple by activating the

    inner Serpent Power that dwells at the base of the spine and guiding it up theinner Tree of Life to the Third Eye of Gnostic revelation. The gnostic wisdom and

    power the first couple achieved and how to activate it through the awakening of

    the Serpent Power was eventually transmitted to their premier Son, Seth-Cain

    (Seth and Cain as synonymous), who then passed it on to the Sons of Seth. The

    Sons of Seth dispersed and established Gnostic Knight Orders in many countries.

    Within all the international Knighted Orders eventually founded by the

    Sons of Seth the goal was to awaken the inner Vel Spear through activating the

    inner Serpent Force and raising it to the Third Eye. The Knighted Order of Gnostic

    Warriors in Egypt became known as the Order of Djedi Knights (from Dj, meaning

    Serpent), who carried staffs full of dynamic Serpent Power. In India, the Gnostic

    Warriors became known as the Order of Kshatriya Knights (from katra, meaningto possess power), and in the British Isles they manifested as the Order of Druid

    Adders (Serpents), who discharged their Serpent Power through their wands, staffs

    and incantations. In Central America they became the Order of the Quetzlcoatl

    Warriors (the Plumed Serpent Warriors), which was divided into the Gnostic

    Orders of the Eagle Knights and Jaguar Knights.

    Karttikeya becomes Mithra, St. Michael, etcKarttikeya becomes Mithra, St. Michael, etcKarttikeya becomes Mithra, St. Michael, etcKarttikeya becomes Mithra, St. Michael, etcAs the Gnostic Warrior tradition moved westward from Lemuria to Europe

    Karttikeya became embraced and venerated by a series of civilizations. In Persian,

    Karttikeya (or Murugan) and his peacock became Mithra (or Mihr) and his bull.Both deities were intimately associated with the Sun and the cock or rooster.

    Later, during Roman times, Mithra as Mithras became the principal deity of the

    Roman Legions, who during their initiations into his cult pledged to help rid the

    world of the despotic Dark Lord, Ahriman, and his denizens.

    When the Persian king Cyrus the Great released the Jews from their

    captivity in Babylon, the Persian Magi traveled to the Middle East and introduced

    Mithra and his nemesis Ahriman to the Rabbis. The Rabbis then took their

    adopted Persian deities back to Palestine with them, but then changed the nameof the Gnostic Warrior to St. Michael, and the diabolical Ahriman to Belial. The

    Essenes, who were perhaps the most ardent worshippers of St. Michael, anointed

    themselves St. Michaels terrestrial army that would fight against Belials legionsand sought to incarnate the spirit of Michael into a physical body so he could lead

    them in their battle with Belial and his dark forces. They believed they lived

    during the end times when the final battle between good and evil was destined to

    be fought.a truth they had received from the Mithra-worshipping priests of

    Persia.

    Thus, Karttikeya and his peacock transformed into Mithra and his bull, as

    well as St. Michael and his dragon. The public masses accepted this mythos of

    darkness versus light literally, but the initiated Gnostic Warrior recognized the

    human-featured hero and his supposed nemesis as the Primal Warrior subduing

    and mastering his own inner Divine Power and the subsequent achievement of

    Gnosis. They also recognized the battle as a motif related to the creation of the

    universe by the Primal Dragon, wherein Michael was the Dragons Divine Mind

    and Michaels Dragon was its Divine Force. In this scenario the legendary herowas not the enemy of the dragon, but the Divine Mind of the Primal Serpent that

    encoded the Serpents Divine Power with a blueprint of the forms it would

    subsequently condense into as the cosmos crystallized into physical forms. This

    transmission of a code is represented by St. Michael Dragon motif, wherein

  • 7/28/2019 58717499 Gnostic Warrior Manual

    4/36

    Michael inserts his spear into the dragon not to kill or destroy it, but to tame and

    shape it.

    From an additional perspective, the Gnostic Warrior recognized that he or

    she would eventually evolve into earthly manifestations of the Primal Dragon and

    that St. Michael, the Divine Mind of the Primal Dragon, would become their inner

    guide, and the Divine Force of the Primal Serpent would become the supernaturalForce they wielded to meet all their needs.

    The Gnostic Warrior embodies the Dragon and Green ManThe Gnostic Warrior embodies the Dragon and Green ManThe Gnostic Warrior embodies the Dragon and Green ManThe Gnostic Warrior embodies the Dragon and Green ManMany Gnostic Warriors recognized that St. Michaels reflection was St.

    George, the Green Man, so in one sense the Cosmic Warrior was already manifest

    on Earth. From their perspective St. George, or Green George, and his unruly

    dragon were one united manifestation of the Primal Dragon on Earth. The earliest

    western Knighted Order, that of the Knights Templar, were indoctrinated into this

    wisdom through the Sufis, and under the guidance of their Islamic mentors also

    came to know that their patron St. George was synonymous with Al-Khadir, the

    Green Man of the Sufis, who in his turn was synonymous with Karttikeya.

    Eventually the Templars inherited the Johannite lineage of Gnostic Warriors from

    the Mandaeans from Sri Lanka, wherein all the Grand Masters were incarnations

    of the Green Man and wielded the Divine Power and Wisdom of the Primal

    Serpent. Their titles often included Jnana, a name of Karttikeya meaning

    Gnosis, or some version of it, such as Yohanan or John.

    When the itinerant Mandaean people eventually merged with the Essenes

    they produced the sect of Nasoreans or Nazarenes, the Serpents. Within this sect

    of Serpent Warriors was born John the Baptist, who founded the western Order

    of Johannites (The Johns or those of John). John the Baptist was succeeded

    by Jesus and John the Divine and Mary Magdalene, and then the leadership of theOrder traveled down a succession of Grand Masters named John who continued

    to govern the sect until the First Crusade. At that time Hughes de Payen, the

    Grand Master of the Gnostic Warrior sect known as the Poor Knights of the

    Templar of Solomon, or Knights Templar, was chosen as Grand Master of the

    Johannites. The Templars assimilated the Johannite tradition and then, throughout

    their ensuing history, the most advanced Knights sought to embody the wisdom

    and power of the Green Man as John, which they venerated in the personified

    form of their Savior, John the Baptist. At the induction into the Order, most

    Templar Knights were given a cord that had been wrapped around Johns head,

    which had been discovered during the Fourth Crusade in Constantinople. This

    cord forever charged the new Knight with Johns Force and established aprotective link with the Baptist. Later, if he proved himself worthy, the Knight was

    brought before the grizzled head during an initiation into the higher mysteries of

    the Johannites. A great amount of Force emanating from John would then

    directly enter the Knight and thereby invest him with the power to accomplish

    great feats of courage and achieve the hallowed summit of gnostic awareness.

    The Warrior TwinsThe Warrior TwinsThe Warrior TwinsThe Warrior TwinsIn some parts of the world the Divine Mind and Power of the Cosmic

    Dragon were personified as two dragons or serpents, or two male warriors. They

    became famous as the ubiquitous Warrior Twins, who were venerated as culture-

    bearers and the heroes of humankind. Many civilizations around the globe alludedto these Twins in their creation myths as being the teachers of the arts of

    civilization and accorded them the indigenous names they are known by today,including: the Kumara or Ashwin Twins of India; the Kaberoi Twins of Egypt and

    Greece; the Dioscouri of Greece and Rome; the Poyangs of the Hopi Nation;

    Child of the Waters and Monster Slayer of the Navaho; the Ahayuta of the Zuni;

    Hunapu and Xbalanque, or Quetzlcoatl and Tzcatilipoca of the Central America

    tribes.

    The early legends of the Twins portrayed the brothers as the most skilled of

    warriors who rid the world of nefarious beasts and demonic humans that

    threatened humankind and then become the founders of all the martial arts andmany of the warrior clans. The Dioscouri Twins, Castor and Pollux, were known

    as the greatest of warriors, as were the Ashwins of India. Hunapu and Xbalenque

    became patrons of the Eagle and Jaguar Knights respectively, and the Ahayuta

    Twins of the Zuni were the patrons of the Warrior Clan.

    With the arrival of dualistic, patriarchal theology approximately 2-3000

    years ago, the once amiable Twins were first portrayed in legend as being in

    occasional conflict, and later they were recognized as eternal enemies of each

    other. The Twin associated with the Divine Mind and Gnosis was recognized asthe more spiritual of the two and linked to a Father God in Heaven, while his

    brother, the embodiment of the Divine Force, was given the lower worlds for his

    kingdom and associated with monstrous dragon-like beasts and called Ahriman,Belial, Satan, Lucifer and the Devil. In their best known manifestation worldwide

    these latter Twins were known as Christ and the Devil.

    The Knighted Orders of the Middle East and EuropeThe Knighted Orders of the Middle East and EuropeThe Knighted Orders of the Middle East and EuropeThe Knighted Orders of the Middle East and EuropeWithin the mystical knighted orders that arose first in the Middle East and

    then in Europe following the First Crusade a Grand Prior or Grand Master

    assumed the role and duties of the ancient Fisher King. These Masters and Priorswere Human Holy Grail chalices full of the Force like their antecedent monarchs

    had been. One such Grand Master was Hasan-i-Sabah, the leader of the Order ofAssassins, who revived the line of the ancient Persian Fisher Kings. Hasan renewed

    the ancient Persian tradition by acquiring for his headquarters the Castle of Alamut

    in the Albourz Mountains, which was once the home of the powerful Persian

    Fisher Kings, including the great King Jamshid, the royal Cup. Hasan became

    known as one of the greatest of Persian alchemists, successfully filling himself and

    his knights with the Force. Hasans counterpart in the parallel order of Knights

    Templar, the Grand Master Hughes de Payen, similarly revived the tradition of

    the Fisher Kings of the East when he accepted the Grand Mastership of theJohannites and became John #70. Afterwards, he governed his knights as an

    embodiment of the ancient Fisher King, whose names had included Jnana or

    John.

    FreemasonryFreemasonryFreemasonryFreemasonryThe rites and levels of Freemasonry were adopted from the Knights

    Templar, and today they can be found to reflect the ancient path of the GnosticWarrior. The 33 degrees of the Scottish Rite, and the 13 degrees of the York Rite

    are based upon the numbers of the fully enlightened Gnostic Knight, 13 and 33.

    Thus, when the Freemason has ascended all the degrees he should, technically, be

    an alchemically transformed enlightened Gnostic Knight. Unfortunately, sincemost alchemy has been expunged from Freemasonry, this is not longer the case.

    The Daily Life of the Gnostic WarriorThe Daily Life of the Gnostic WarriorThe Daily Life of the Gnostic WarriorThe Daily Life of the Gnostic WarriorWithin the following pages are presented helpful guidelines for

    the developing Gnostic Warrior to observe in daily life.

    Right CompanyRight CompanyRight CompanyRight CompanyThe most important guideline any Gnostic Warrior can observe is in regards

    to the company he or she keeps. Right company supports the Warrior on his orher path to gnosis, while wrong company can be a distraction and completely

    take the Warrior off the path. This is why it has been encouraged by the Knighted

    Orders and initiatic societies to keep the company of other members of their order

    or society.

    A Gnostic Warrior should choose associates and friends with whom he or

    she you can have regular satsang (spiritual conversation) with and/or share his or

    her alchemical rites with.

    The Inner Weapons of the Gnostic WarriorThe Inner Weapons of the Gnostic WarriorThe Inner Weapons of the Gnostic WarriorThe Inner Weapons of the Gnostic WarriorTo meet the daily challenges encountered by a Gnostic Warrior he or she

    should develop an arsenal of inner weapons. Such inner weapons denote the

    inner abilities and qualities that a Gnostic Warrior relies upon in meeting lifes

    challenges.

    The InnerThe InnerThe InnerThe Inner SpearSpearSpearSpearThe Inner Spear of a Gnostic Warrior corresponds with his or her gnostic

    awareness. From this gnosis consciousness comes guidance from the all-knowinginner Spirit that can dependably guide a Gnostic Warrior through any crisis. Thus,

    the Inner Spear is the best and most reliable weapon for overcoming any

    opponent and meeting any obstacle.

    The Inner Spear is symbolized by Karttikeyas Vel. The shaft of his Vel

    represents the human spine within which the inner Serpent Power ascends to the

    head, and the blade of his Vel denotes the Third Eye of Gnostic Wisdom that isactivated by the ascending Force.

    The Inner SwordThe Inner SwordThe Inner SwordThe Inner SwordThe Inner Sword of a Gnostic Warrior corresponds to his or her inner

    discrimination. By utilizing the Inner Sword the Gnostic Warrior is able to cut

    through superfluous evidence and information to get to the underlying truth. The

    single-edged sharp sword denotes the sharp, single-minded intellect that the

    Gnostic Warrior needs to make quick decisions. The razor-sharpness of the InnerSword denotes the razors edge and Middle Path of the Gnostic Warrior who

    seeks to live in harmony and balance with the Divine Will.

    The Inner ArrowThe Inner ArrowThe Inner ArrowThe Inner ArrowThe Inner Arrow denotes the inner will power of the Gnostic Warrior.

    When directed with one-pointed focus and perfect concentration, the Inner Arrow

    will hit the center of the target and the goal of the Gnostic Warrior will be

    achieved.

    Typically, mastership of the Inner Sword and Inner Arrow will occur well

    before the Gnostic Warrior has fully mastered his or her Inner Spear; i.e., thedevelopment of his or her intuition will normally arrive at a later stage than will

    development of the discrimination and will power. While gnosis is being

    developed, the Gnostic Warrior should continue to make decisions through

    deliberation and with good discrimination. But when it becomes well-developed,

    the Inner Spear will become the principal weapon used by a Gnostic Warrior.

    The Inner ShieldThe Inner ShieldThe Inner ShieldThe Inner ShieldThe Inner Shield is the love and compassion within the heart of the Gnostic

    Warrior. When the Gnostic Warriors love and compassion is very strong, the

    Inner Shield will deflect all attacks and he or she can never be defeated.

    The Taoist Philosophy of the Gnostic WarriorThe Taoist Philosophy of the Gnostic WarriorThe Taoist Philosophy of the Gnostic WarriorThe Taoist Philosophy of the Gnostic WarriorA Gnostic Warrior should walk the Middle Path between the extremes of

    behavior while embracing the balanced philosophy of Taoism. As most of the

    great masters throughout history have demonstrated, the best path is the Middle

    Path that exists between the extremes of the male and female principles, or Yin

    and Yang. Taoism espouses a lifestyle that is the balance of the male (fiery, active,intellectual) and female (watery, cool, passive, emotional) principles. Too much

    or too little activity can be harmful, just as can too much exposure to either hot orcold, or too much time spent in either light or darkness. Besides living a balanced

    outer life, a Gnostic Warrior should also cultivate an inner balance of masculine

    and feminine traits. The goal of the Gnostic Warrior is to be prepared for all

    challenges, and he or she can only do that when he or she possesses such a perfect

    inner balance. The great Gnostic Adept Tukaram Maharaj of India proclaimed his

    own perfect inner balance when he stated: I am so strong I can break a

    thunderbolt over my knee, but I am so soft that I would be bruised from lying

    down in a bed of rose petals.

    DisciplineDisciplineDisciplineDisciplineThe life of the Gnostic Warrior requires discipline in body, mind, emotions

    and spirit. In order to keep the physical body fit and healthy, a healthy diet and a

    regular exercise regime should be adopted. The mind and emotions should be

    kept in check by striving to focus on generating positive and uplifting thoughtsand feelings. A good tool for assisting the Gnostic Warrior in being completely

    present in the moment and not succumb to extraneous thoughts is regular

    meditation. To keep the mind steady, the Gnostic Warrior should adopt thealchemical and meditational practices outlined in this manual. A Gnostic Warrior

    should also daily affirmation that the Infinite Spirit exists within his or her heart

    and, therefore, anything can accomplished.

    Spiritual PracticesSpiritual PracticesSpiritual PracticesSpiritual PracticesEvery Gnostic Warrior should observe regular periods of meditation,

    contemplation and alchemical, spiritual disciplines. Without regular meditation

    and contemplation the mind will be unsteady and the inner centers of gnosis will

    remain un-developed. Without alchemical spiritual practices, the inner alchemicalforce will remain inactive.

    Activating the Gnostic Warrior BodyActivating the Gnostic Warrior BodyActivating the Gnostic Warrior BodyActivating the Gnostic Warrior BodyEvery day the Gnostic Warrior should observe the below practice to

    activate the Gnostic Warrior Body, which is the subtle body composed of the

    chakra power centers and the Serpent Fire. This exercise is specially designed to

    awaken Kundalini in order for the Gnostic Warrior to alchemically transform and

  • 7/28/2019 58717499 Gnostic Warrior Manual

    10/36

    develop gnosis, as well as for him or her to wield the Force. The practice also

    activates the Heart Chakra and Third Eye, two important centers from which

    gnosis originates in the human body. The Third Eye acts as an antenna to receive

    Gnostic Wisdom, and the Heart Chakra, seat of the inner Spirit, provides the

    Gnostic Warrior with his or her true identity and the gnostic revelation of I am

    God, I am Spirit, I am Infinite.

    For best results this practice should be observed 1-3 times daily. Early morning is

    best, followed by sunrise and sunset. But any time or place is beneficial.

    Step 1:

    Sit down on a floor cross legged or cross your legs while seated in a chair.

    Put your left hand over your forehead (over Third Eye)

    Put your right hand over the lower spine (region of the Kundalini). This creates a

    circuit.

    Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth, fairly quickly. Do not

    pause between the in-breath and out-breath.Repeat these in and out breaths 15 times.

    While breathing, visualize energy coming up the spine on the out-breath.

    On the 15th breath, inhale and hold for a few seconds and then slowly exhale.

    Now keep your hands over Third Eye and base of the spine for 15-20 seconds

    while inwardly repeating to yourself Arise Serpent Fire.

    Repeat Step 1

    Step 2:

    Put your right hand on your heart.Put your left hand on top of your right hand.

    Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth, fairly quickly. Do not

    pause between the in-breath and out-breath.

    Breathe into the heart. Repeat breaths 10 times.

    On 10th breath inhale, hold a few seconds, then slowly exhale.

    Keep hands on heart for 15-20 seconds while inwardly repeating Awaken

    Sophia, Awaken the Christ, or Awaken Michael.

    Repeat Step 2

    Step 3:

    Keep your hands on your heart. After you have finished repeating Awaken theChrist (or Sophia or Michael) slowly repeat Ma Om to yourself (mentally)

    while breathing in through the nose on the syllable Ma and out through your noseon Om. You can also repeat I Am Love for some time instead of the mantra, if

    you prefer.

    Continue the silent repetitions for 5-15 minutes. Your breathing will become

    gradually slower and you will slowly drift into a meditative state.

    GnosticGnosticGnosticGnostic----Alchemical Meditation PositionsAlchemical Meditation PositionsAlchemical Meditation PositionsAlchemical Meditation PositionsThere are some standard leg and hand positions that you can assume in

    order to stimulate the inner process of alchemy when you meditate. Simply stated,

    alchemy is the process of uniting the male and female polarities to generate the

    alchemical fire. Since the right and left sides of the body correspond to the maleand female principles, simply by joining them together alchemy is performed. By

    using these alchemical positions the Serpent Fire or Kundalini can be activated,and the left and right hemispheres unite so that the Gnostic Warrior can

    experience gnostic consciousness and receive guidance from the inner Spirit.

    Alchemical Sitting PositionsAlchemical Sitting PositionsAlchemical Sitting PositionsAlchemical Sitting Positions

    To unite the two halves of the body the Gnostic Warrior can sit in a cross

    legged position on the floor, or upon a bed or cushion, etc. He or she can also sit

    on a chair and simply cross the legs. To support the back so you can sit for a long

    period of time, either sit against a wall or elevate your buttocks by sitting on a

    pillow.

    There are a few classic cross legged positions in Hatha Yoga. The simplest is

    Easy Pose, wherein the feet are tucked under legs. The next one in order of

    degree of difficulty is the Half Lotus, wherein the right foot rests on the left

    thigh (left foot on top of right). The most advanced sitting position is the FullLotus wherein each foot sits upon the opposite thigh. The left foot should end up

    on top of the right foot, so that even though the polarity is united there a slight

    dominance given to the female, passive principle. The Full Lotus has many

    advantages: It keeps the legs locked, and this assists in keeping the mind one-

    pointed. It holds in the bodys Force so it can be used for concentration. And

    when held in for long enough the Force will heat up and become alchemical fire.The Full Lotus when held for one hour can purify most of the subtle nadis or

    meridians in the etheric body, thus keeping the Gnostic Warrior perfectly healthy.

    Remember that the first two sitting positions should be mastered i.e., they

    become comfortable to sit in for a long period of time - before practicing the Full

    Lotus during meditation. When learning the Full Lotus, begin by holding theposture for five minutes. When it becomes comfortable for five minutes then add

    another five minutes, etc.

    Alchemical Hand PositionsAlchemical Hand PositionsAlchemical Hand PositionsAlchemical Hand Positions

    To unite the two halves of the body the Gnostic Warrior can also rest his

    or her two hands upon the lap, left hand on top of right, in the traditional

  • 7/28/2019 58717499 Gnostic Warrior Manual

    12/36

    Buddha pose. He or she can also rest the hands, palms up, on the right and left

    knees while joining your index fingers to your thumbs. This position of the hands

    is known as Chin Mudra and assists in the activation of the Third Eye so the

    Gnostic Warrior can experience gnostic awareness during meditation.

    Alchemical Times for MeditationAlchemical Times for MeditationAlchemical Times for MeditationAlchemical Times for MeditationThere are certain times of the day that specially support alchemical

    meditation by promoting a yin-yang balance in the body. These are 4-6 am and

    sunrise and sunset. Between 4-6 am the body is the most balanced in the 24 hour

    cycle. Typically, every person breathes predominantly out of the right or left

    nostril, thus activating the Pingala or Ida Nadis and their corresponding male or

    female principles. Only between 4-6 am does a person breath evenly through

    both nostrils, thus creating a balance of the male-female principles and, ultimately,

    their union. Sunrise and sunset are also good alchemical times because there is a

    balance of light and darkness at those times, which will have the effect of

    balancing the yin-yang principles within the body. Meditation should not occur in

    the middle of the day or in strong sunlight. Hot and direct sunlight consumes theinner life force and makes the body predominantly yang.

    Gnostic MeditationGnostic MeditationGnostic MeditationGnostic Meditation

    Regular meditation will assist the Gnostic Warrior by making the mind

    steady and one-pointed. A steady mind will be less likely to succumb to negative

    or fearful thinking and be able to make quick decisions. Through meditation the

    Gnostic Warrior will also awaken the inner gnosis and learn to hear the guidance

    that is always coming from Spirit.

    There are many forms of meditation a Gnostic Warrior can adopt in accordancewith his or her temperament. They include:

    1. One-pointed prayer and worship directed towards an image, a picture, or a

    deity.

    2. One-pointed meditation on a symbol or on a philosophical idea.

    3. One-pointed meditation on some uplifting music or a captivating painting.

    4. One-pointed focus on ones daily work.

    This fourth practice of meditation is not suited for everyone. The Gnostic Warrior

    must be able to completely shut out all extraneous thoughts and focus solely on

    his or her work. Thus, the work must be completely suited to and continuously

    enjoyable to the warrior. He or she must also be able to give up concerns

    regarding the fruits of the work, and accept exactly what is gained through it,otherwise such concerns will disturb their mental stillness.

    5. One-pointed repetition of a mantra.This final form of meditation is often the easiest to learn and practice for the

    Gnostic Warrior. A mantra consists of one or more Sanscrit syllables that when

    mentally repeated or vocalized will generate a vibration in the body that will

    catapult the Gnostic Warrior into a meditative state. The more a mantra is used,

    the more powerful it becomes as a meditation tool. This is because the user of the

  • 7/28/2019 58717499 Gnostic Warrior Manual

    13/36

    mantra plays a role in empowering it. The Gnostic Warrior should find one

    mantra that he or she feels most comfortable with and continue to use it with

    each meditation.

    Alchemical MantrasAlchemical MantrasAlchemical MantrasAlchemical Mantras

    One of the best mantras to use is OM NAMAH SHIVAYA, meaningSalutations to Shiva, the Infinite Spirit. Each of the six syllables of the mantra

    correspond to one of the lower six chakras and one of the five elements, so its

    repetition will also activate those power centers and purify the five elements that

    constitute the physical body. During meditation repeat this mantra silently

    (mentally). Repeat once on the in-breath and once on the out-breath.

    Two-syllable mantras are very powerful tools for leading the Gnostic

    Warrior into meditation since they rapidly slow down the breathing. Because of

    the breath-mind connection, slowing the breath will naturally slow down the

    mind. These mantras include Ham-sa, So-Ham, and Ma-Om. Ham-sa and So-Ham

    are versions of the Sanscrit mantra Ahamsa, meaning I am That. Ma-Om is a

    gnostic mantra that resonates within both the heart and Third Eye. The firstsyllable of each of these two-syllable mantras is repeated silently (mentally) on the

    in-breath and the second syllable is repeated silently on the out-breath. If the

    mind of the Gnostic Warrior is very active when he or she begins meditation, the

    longer mantra of OM NAMAH SHIVAYA can be used first initially to effectively

    calm and slow down the mind, and then a two-syllable mantra can be used once

    the mind has become calmer.

    AffirmationAffirmationAffirmationAffirmationssss

    Affirmations are a powerful adjunct to meditation. Once the conscious

    mind is calmed through meditation then the inward repetition of positive,uplifting affirmations can easily travel into the unconscious mind. They will remain

    there following meditation and to influence the conscious mind throughout the

    day. One important positive affirmation for the Gnostic Warrior to repeat daily is:

    The Infinite Spirit exists within me and I am able to manifest all my goals.

    Another is I am a powerful Gnostic Warrior with all the inner weapons I need to

    meet the challenges in life. And another is: I meet all my challenges in life with

    both ease and peace of mind.

    Mental DisciplineMental DisciplineMental DisciplineMental Discipline

    When the mind of the Gnostic Warrior is unsteady and descends into

    negative thinking, the Warrior should always be ready to replace negativethoughts with those that are positive and supportive. If he or she is unable to do

    this, then the Gnostic Warrior should consider spending some time raising his orher vibration through chanting, repeating mantras, meditating and performing

    alchemical practices. An empathic Warrior may need to remove him or herself

    from people in order to clear the auric field from the negative energies received

    from others. Crystals are clearing, so meditation in a crystal grid can be healing, as

    can a peaceful walk in nature and/or through a vortex.

    Pyramids and Crystal GridsPyramids and Crystal GridsPyramids and Crystal GridsPyramids and Crystal GridsTo enhance your meditation you can set up a pyramid and/or a grid of

    crystals.The pyramid shape results from uniting two geometric forms associated

    with the polarity, so it will naturally balance and unite the polarity of a Gnostic

    Warrior who sits within one. A pyramid is produced by uniting a cube, the threedimensional form of the square, the symbol of matter, with a tetrahedron, the

    three dimensional shape of the triangle, the symbol of the fire of Spirit. The union

    of the male/female polarity as Spirit and matter within a pyramid produces a

    version of the fiery, transformative Kundalini, which rises up its center; thus the

    name, pyr-a-mid, Fire in the middle. If a Gnostic Warrior sits or lies down in a

    pyramid its transformative power will alchemically work to engender a union of

    the polarity in his or her body and thereby transport them into a meditative state.

    A crystal grid in the shape of a hexagon or octagon with the crystals at the

    points with terminations pointing inwards will also serve to unite the polarity

    within a Gnostic Warrior when he or she sits or reclines within such a grid for rest

    and/or meditation. While lying down within such a grid the Gnostic Warrior can

    also place crystals over the chakra centers to both activate and balance them.

    For optimum results set up a pyramid and place a crystal grid inside of it.

    This will create a very powerful meditation chamber. Lie down or sit up within

    this chamber while holding your Holy Stone and you will have a powerful

    alchemically induced meditation experience.

    Self InquirySelf InquirySelf InquirySelf Inquiry

    One practice that can calm and still the mind, as well as assist the Gnostic

    Warrior in achieving self knowledge, is the discipline of Self Inquiry. To perform

    this practice the Gnostic Warrior should begin by asking him or herself, What amI? Contemplation on this question, and the inquiry that ensues, will often have

    the effect of stilling the mind. The mental inquiry should lead the Warrior from

    the most physical to the most etheric levels of his or her being. In succession, the

    Gnostic Warrior should ask:

    Am I this physical body?

    Am I these emotions?

    Am I these thoughts? etc, etc.

  • 7/28/2019 58717499 Gnostic Warrior Manual

    15/36

    Each question will result in a resounding NO when the Warrior realizes that

    when the part of self under examination is absent he or she does not cease to

    exist. When the Warrior is asleep and not aware of the physical body, for

    example, he or she still exists. When the emotions and mind are still, he or she

    also continues to exist. So the true nature of the Gnostic Warrior transcends these

    levels. Ultimately, it will become clear that the essential part of the GnosticWarrior that must always be present is pure awareness, i.e., the underlying,

    witness consciousness. When the Gnostic Warrior realizes that the witness

    consciousness is his or her eternal essence and true self, the inquiry is complete and

    he or she can then dwell in pure, untainted awareness.

    I am not the DoerI am not the DoerI am not the DoerI am not the DoerOnce the Gnostic Warrior begins to know him or herself as the eternal

    witness consciousness, it will also become apparent that he or she is not the

    Doer. The real Doer is the Goddess, which as pure energy has condensed to

    become a persons ephemeral components of mind, emotions, and body. The

    Goddess has even become a persons ego, which is also impermanent and

    composed of energy. The Goddess has accomplished all the activity in the universe

    since the time of Big Bang, and all things continue to happen under her guidance

    and locomotion. She contracted her life force form to become the physical body,

    mind and emotions of the Gnostic Warrior, and She continually fuels and

    animates these parts of self with Her nurturing life force. As the conscious life

    force, the Goddess digests the Gnostic Warriors food, replaces his or her cells,

    pumps the heart, etc. The Goddesss commanding influence on body and mindbecomes completely evident to the Gnostic Warrior after he or she learns to dwell

    in the transcendental witness consciousness, where the dance of the Goddess

    spinning her web (the Matrix) can be witnessed without taking any part in it. Heor she can then watch as the Goddess drives all the bodily processes, as well as the

    mind, emotions and the muscular movements involved in everyday living. The

    Gnostic Warrior can then truly proclaim I am not the Doer. He or she will then

    pray to the Goddess daily for protection and sustenance.

    Activating GnosisActivating GnosisActivating GnosisActivating GnosisThe Goddess is also Sophia, your inner gnosis and guide. Sophia, meaning

    wisdom, is the wisdom that emanates from your inner Spirit. Thus, the Goddess

    is your wisdom and power but not the true you, the inner, transcendental Spirit.

    To receive guidance from the Goddess you can simply ask questions during

    your meditation and wait for an answer. You will know it is the Goddess speaking

    to you because the answer will arise with an accompanying AHA! that resonates

    throughout your body. At first the AHA in your communications may be subtle,even hardly perceptible, but the more you mediate and ask questions the more

    obvious and clear it will become. Remember: guidance does not come only as

    words, it may instead come as inspiration to take some course of action. You may

    be thinking of moving ahead with some project when all of a sudden you feel a

  • 7/28/2019 58717499 Gnostic Warrior Manual

    16/36

    rush of inspiration telling you that you are on track with your plans.

    To receive guidance from the Goddess you can also call her forth by her

    various names. There are many of them to choose from. You can also repeat

    many of Her names at once as the 108 Names of the Goddess, which is a very

    powerful and reliable aid for receiving messages and inspiration from the

    Goddess. Both the 108 Names and some other assorted names of the Goddess canbe found at the end of this guide. These names consist of Sanscrit letters that

    activate petals on various chakras, and each petal is associated with a different

    power or ability. All 50 letters of the Sanscrit alphabet are intoned when

    repeating the 108 Names of the Goddess. Therefore, solely by its daily repetition

    can the Gnostic Warrior activate all the petals, all chakras, and all his or her inner

    powers.

    The Vision QuestThe Vision QuestThe Vision QuestThe Vision QuestTo initially connect to Sophia, i.e., the inner Gnosis, or to refresh that

    connection, the Gnostic Warrior should find time to exclusively devote to

    alchemical spiritual disciplines. One such observance which can be embarked upon

    with the specific intent of continually practicing these disciplines is the Native

    American rite of the Vision Quest.

    Typically the Vision Quest is observed in nature, in the wilderness or

    desert, and occurs over three days and three nights. With nothing but a bed roll

    and water, a Gnostic Warrior can use his or her time to exclusively observe

    spiritual practices designed to raise his or her vibration and unite with Spirit.

    Often, during the second or third day, a new revelation, answer, or vision willpresent itself to the meditating Warrior.

    For the Gnostic Warrior the Vision Quest has a secondary benefit. It assists

    the Gnostic Warrior in transcending his or her fears. When the Warrior realizes heor she is all alone in the wilderness many fears regarding self-protection suddenly

    arise. The Gnostic Warrior must then learn to replace such fears with a renewed

    faith in the protecting nature of the inner Spirit and the Great Spirit or Goddess

    that surrounds them.

    Academic StudyAcademic StudyAcademic StudyAcademic StudyThe academic study of the Gnostic Warrior should cover a wide range of

    helpful topics, including the mechanics of living in the world. Even a peripheral

    study of business practices is helpful. Spiritual study should include the lives and

    legends of the Gnostic Warriors, the Knighted Orders, and the Gnostic Sects, as

    well as the contemplative words of the enlightened Gnostics.

    Song of God. The Gnostic Warrior should make the study of this scripture a

    basic part of his or her daily contemplation.

    At the heart of the Bhagavad Gita is a conversation on the battlefield of

    Kurukshetra in ancient India between Arjuna, the archetypal Gnostic Warrior, and

    Krishna, his inner Spirit who is depicted as Arjunas chariot driver. During the

    dialogue, Arjuna, becomes despondent at the realization that he was about to slaysome of his own relatives, but he is able to resume his role of warrior after

    receiving instruction from Krishna regarding the Dharma (code, modus operandi,

    lifestyle) of a noble Gnostic Warrior. All facets of the Gnostic Warrior lifestyle,including diet, alchemy and meditation are covered in detail during the ensuing

    conversation.

    One of the principal lines in the Bhagavad Gita that aptly sums up the

    entire text is Yoga is skill in action. This means that by using good discrimination

    in all his or her actions, the Gnostic Warrior is performing yoga and will evolve

    spiritually. Another important and essential passage reads Prakriti (the Goddess)

    is the performer of all actions and the Self (the inner Spirit, true Self) is actionless.

    Martial ArtsMartial ArtsMartial ArtsMartial ArtsAll martial arts have their respective benefits, however it is encouraged that

    the Gnostic Warrior study a martial art that incorporates a spiritual emphasis. Such

    martial art schools include:

    Akkido: A purely defensive school with a spiritual philosophy

    Kung-Fu: A school of with a spiritual philosophy.

    Tai Chi: A very soft-style martial art that teaches Taoist philosophy.

    Dealing with FearDealing with FearDealing with FearDealing with FearA knowledge of Martial Arts is a great benefit for a Gnostic Warrior in

    overcoming fears regarding his or her physical safety. But a Gnostic Warrior must

    also be able to overcome all his or her other fears to live in equanimity. Nothing

    cripples a Gnostic Warrior like fear. Only when a Warrior has transcended most of

    his or her fears can their consciousness remain calm enough to hear the gnosticguidance coming from the inner Spirit or Goddess Sophia. This guidance,

    symbolized by the Spear, is the Gnostic Warriors greatest weapon.The fear experienced in the present moment is often related to traumatic

    experiences from earlier in the current life and other lifetimes. Fear also results

    from feeling separate and alone from others and a lack of trust in the protecting

    and nurturing power of the Goddess. The development of the polar opposite

    emotion of love can offset these feelings. Through alchemical spiritual practices

    and service to others a Gnostic Warrior awakens the inner centers of love and

    thereby overcomes the natural sense of separation that accompanies a physical

    body and ego. An accompanying sense of love for the Goddess will also intensifyones feelings of support and protection.

    Emotional release therapy can assist a Gnostic Warrior in releasing those

    traumatic experiences that are generating fearful responses to life. Such release can

    occur through psychotherapy, hypnotherapy and energy work, including massage,

    acupuncture or Reiki. These modalities effectively move and help release unhealed

    emotions that have become blocked energy in the meridians and nadis of the

    etheric body. When these blockages are moved and released, so is their

    corresponding emotions. A Gnostic Warrior can also overcome his or her fears byintentionally putting him or herself in circumstances that evoke them. Often

    intensely experiencing a fear is the best remedy for defusing and releasing it.

    Fear that exists within a Gnostic Warrior from lack of trust in a higherpower can also be overcome by consciously trusting the Goddess and Her Son on

    a daily basis to protect, guide and nurture him or her. In times of stress, hardship

    and danger, the Gnostic Warrior can call upon the Goddess and Her Son for

    support and protection. The Goddess is the Matriarch of the Gnostic Warrior Path

    and is always there to support those who call upon Her. The Goddesss Son is the

    model Gnostic Warrior known as Karttikeya, Michael, or Al-Khadir. He is also

    always ready to assist one on the Gnostic Warrior path which he himself first

    taught.

    Fear of danger to ones physical form can also be overcome by learning

    some self survival techniques. A Gnostic Warrior should have knowledge of how

    to survive alone in any environment, including the desert, the wilderness, high in

    the mountains, and even in snow and ice-covered regions.

    Finally, fear can also be overcome through mystical experience duringwhich the Gnostic Warrior recognizes his or her eternal nature. Astral travel and

    out of body experiences will reveal to the Gnostic Warrior that he or she is more

    than a physical form and will, therefore, survive any harm to their physical body.

    These expansive mystical experiences are an essential part of all gnostic paths.

    DietDietDietDiet for a Gnostic Warriorfor a Gnostic Warriorfor a Gnostic Warriorfor a Gnostic WarriorA Gnostic Warrior should eat a diet that is right for his or her constitution

    and lifestyle, and one that also promotes spiritual work. In general, the amount of

    food consumed should be consistent with the daily amount of energy spent

    through physical, emotional and mental activity. Too much food will consume the

    life force (including the Kundalini, a high frequency prana) needed for spiritualwork. If the Gnostic Warrior eats too much one meal he or she should reduce

    intake in the following one or two meals.

    Eat for your ConstitutionEat for your ConstitutionEat for your ConstitutionEat for your ConstitutionA Gnostic Warrior will possess either a Vata, Kapha or Pitta body type and

    constitution. A Vata ConstitutionVata ConstitutionVata ConstitutionVata Constitution or body type is thin, wiry, and airy. There is a

    predominance of the air element in his or her constitution. A Vata person is

    mercurial, intellectual, and often quiet or introverted, although he or she can also

    be garrulous and animated. He or she suffers from a weakness of the digestive

    system, especially in the intestines, and is prone to accumulating an abundance ofinternal gas. A person with a Vata Constitution should consume a diet that is easy

    to digest and made up of a predominance of grains, fruits and vegetables. Sweet

    carbohydrates and easily digested meats are fine as long they are not consumed in

    too great an abundance. Milk products are good in order to keep flesh on a Vata

    body and calm the overactive nervous system. Beans and legumes can be

    problematical. Spicy foods can assist the weak digestive system, but they may be

    too stimulating for some Vata Constitutions.

    A Kapha ConstitutionKapha ConstitutionKapha ConstitutionKapha Constitution is one which possesses a predominance of the earthand water elements. There is a tendency to gain weight easily for a Gnostic

    Warrior with this body type, and the muscles are doughy and not usually very

    well defined. A person with a Kapha Consitution usually moves slow, is never amorning person, and needs a greater amount of sleep than those with other

    body types. In order to balance the earth and water elements, the Gnostic

    Warrior with Kapha Constitution should eat salty and drying foods, and limit their

    consumption of carbohydrates. Lean meats, vegetables, fish and fruits are good for

    this constitution. Spicy foods can help to balance the earth and water elements,

    but carbohydrates and sweets will exacerbate them and are counter-indicated.

    A Pitta ConstitutionPitta ConstitutionPitta ConstitutionPitta Constitution is the most athletic of the three. It possesses an

    abundance of the fire element. Gnostic Warriors with this constitution produce

    fiery energy that can be channeled into athleticism, abundant activity and

    creativity, but also aggressiveness and anger. Pitta people have well defined

    muscles, as well as good, efficient digestion, since fire is the element that digests

    food, and they can often eat most anything without suffering from digestivedisorders. In order to balance their fire, Pitta people should limit their

    consumption of meats, salty, spicy and drying foods.

    body. They make a person calm and peaceful and promote contemplation and

    meditation. By contrast, Rajasic foods are fiery and heat producing foods, such as

    meats and overly spicy foods that make a Gnostic Warrior active and aggressive,

    When to Eat DairyWhen to Eat DairyWhen to Eat DairyWhen to Eat Dairy

    During times when a Gnostic Warrior is involved with intensive sadhana

    (spiritual practices) and therefore generating a lot of inner alchemical power, orKundalini heat, it is important for him or her to consume dairy foods. Kundalini

    feeds off of the inner liquids (seminal fluids, hormones, etc.). Inner fluids and flesh

    can become consumed quickly during intensive spiritual work unless certain foods,

    such as dairy products, replace them quickly. If the flesh is not continually

    nourished, then once it has been consumed by the Kundalini the Serpent Fire will

    feed off of what is known as the ojas (bone marrow) and jing (seminal fluids).

    This will give rise to a dangerous deficiency of the immune system and an

    invitation to a host of disease syndromes that are nearly impossible to overcome.

    Jing, which is ones inner essence stored in the kidneys, fuels all the inner organs.

    When it is depleted the inner organs become weak and inactive. When the Jing is

    completely consumed, death is either near or has arrived.

    Here are some basic guidelines for nourishing the life force on a daily basis:

    too little sleep can weaken the life force.2.2.2.2. ActivityActivityActivityActivity. Too much activity will overly consume the life force. A Gnostic

    Warrior should get the right amount of activity for him in accordance with his orher constitution. A Warrior with a Vata Constitution requires less physical exercise

    than one with a Pitta Constitution. A Kapha Constitution person requires an

    amount of physical exertion consistent with their mass. If they are very over-

    weight they need to have less physical activity than those who are of normal

    weight. The right amount of activity will saturate the blood with nourishing life

    force and leave a person feeling tired but not exhausted.

    peak, the Gnostic Warrior can assimilate an abundance of the Force both from the

    ground through the feet, as well as from the air. The asanas of Hatha Yoga, when

    combined with proper breathing, will have the natural effect of both moving and

    increasing the Force.

    desires into the mind. Sexual abstinence and celibacy is only required among those

    Gnostic Knights involved in intensive spiritual activities because at that time they

    are creating copious amounts of Kundalini power that feeds off the jing. If the jing

    is depleted at such times the Kundalini is likely to feed off the bone marrow or

    ojas and this could seriously damage the persons immune system and any

    reserves of energy.

    abdomen or Dantien, the point just below the navel, will increase the life force

    power in a Gnostic Warrior. He or she should hold the breath in the Dantien for acount of five and then slowly exhale. This practice will transmit life force down to

    the kidneys, which will then distribute it to the other organs (the kidneys are

    recognized as the root of all the organs). When held for a certain period of time

    the retention of life force in the lower part of the body can also turn into fire that

    awakens the Kundalini force at the base of the spine. Controlled breathing

    practices should be observed first thing in the morning when the life force is more

    8888. Mantra repetition.. Mantra repetition.. Mantra repetition.. Mantra repetition. All mantras contain Force, especially those of a sacred

    language like Sanscrit or Hebrew, and those that have been repeated by theirowner over a long period of time. Moreover, if the mantra comes from an

    enlightened spiritual teacher it will be full of the Masters Force. Thus, the Force

    contained by a mantra is contingent on its language, where it comes from, and

    how often the practitioner has used it. It is good for the Gnostic Warrior to repeat

    mantras each morning in order to begin his or her day full of the Force. A mantra

    should be repeated a certain number of sacred repetitions, or groups of mantras,

    as in the 108 Names of the Goddess, or with mantras many verses (stotra

    mantras), like the Bhagavad Gita, can be repeated. The 108 or 1000 Names of the

    Goddess (see end of manual) will fill the Warrior with the Force of the Goddess.

    They will also fill the Gnostic Warrior with inspiration from the Goddess and

    draw Her protection and assistance in meeting lifes needs and responsibilities.

    Moving the ForceMoving the ForceMoving the ForceMoving the ForceBesides nourishing the life force a Gnostic Warrior should also keep it

    flowing. The life force moves within subtle energy channels in the etheric body

    known as nadis (Hindu) and meridians (Chinese). When it becomes blocked then

    emotional, mental and physical ailments can result. To restore health themovement of the life force must be restored. To keep the life force flowing

    optimally and/or to restore its flow, consider the following:

    Hatha Yoga and Tai Chi:Hatha Yoga and Tai Chi:Hatha Yoga and Tai Chi:Hatha Yoga and Tai Chi: These are two excellent disciplines for keeping the life

    force flowing optimally. They are traditionally performed in the morning when

    the life force is strong in the air; thus, they not only regulate the flow of the life

    force but nourish it as well.

    Exercise:Exercise:Exercise:Exercise: Moderate exercise will move the life force and restore its movement.

    Too much or too little exercise can, however, both block and deplete the life

    force.

    Acupuncture and Massage:Acupuncture and Massage:Acupuncture and Massage:Acupuncture and Massage: These are two excellent healing modalities that are

    designed to restore the movement of the life force. Massage moves the life force

    through stroking motions applied to the physical tissues, and brakes up blockages

    by loosening tight muscles. Acupuncture uses metal needles inserted directly intothe meridians to unblock the life force and resume its proper movement. The

    needles act as conduits to either release blocked and congested life force by

    moving it out of the meridians, or they increase life force by moving it from the

    outside and conducting it in to the meridians.

    Stress:Stress:Stress:Stress: Stress is one of the greatest offenders for proper life force movement. Stress

    stops the proper flow of life force, which then causes tightness in the muscles,

    body tissues and/or disturbs the proper functioning of the internal organs.

    Prolonged stress can cause permanent muscular and tissue tightness in an area of

    the body that is continually effected and/or severe inner organ disturbance or

    failure.

    Directing the ForceDirecting the ForceDirecting the ForceDirecting the ForceAs embodiments of the Infinite Spirit, all humans possess the power to

    create and manifest their desires. The personal mind and life force of a human is a

    microcosm of the Divine Mind and Divine Power of Spirit which at the beginning

    of time manifested the entire universe. Just as the Divine Mind emanated the

    Divine Force, a spiral of creative power is continually emanating from the Spirit

    and mind located inside a persons heart. As the Chinese say, the heart is the seat

    of the mind.To efficiently manifest the life force emanating from a Gnostic Warrior

    must be strong and abundant. The speed and efficiency of manifestation will

    depend on the amount of time the Gnostic Warrior spends giving the object of

    desire his or her one-pointed mental focus.

    When focused, the Gnostic Warrior will send into the universe his or her

    thought forms to be manifested. These thought forms are magnified by the

    Warriors personal life force, and they can be further magnified by the use ofwands, staffs and hand-held crystals, or by sitting or standing within a vortex or

    pyramid. When using wands the Gnostic Warrior should point his or her tool in

    all four directions while visualizing the object of his or her desire.

    The thought forms of the Gnostic Warrior receive assistance in theirmanifestation through the vocalization of the syllable OM. The OM is known in

    India as the Pranava, meaning that which produces prana (life force). When

    OM is vocalized it will produce additional life force to carry the thought form

    into the world and promote its manifestation. The OM is the sound-syllable of the

    Goddess, whose form body is the Sri Yantra, the geometrical form produced by

    the OM vibration. The OM is the Divine Power of the Infinite Spirit, which is the

    Goddess. Thus, through vocalizing the OM the Gnostic Warrior is invoking or

    summoning the Goddess as life force to assist in the successful manifestation of his

    or her object of desire.

    A thought form can also be empowered by an emotion. Aftervisualizing and inwardly experiencing the joy of successfully

    manifesting the chosen object, the Gnostic Warrior should thenvocalize the OM mantra. This will send both the thought and emotion

    of the successfully manifested object of desire into the world. The life

    force will then be encoded to accelerate its manifestation.
