Helena Blavatsky, a prominent figure in the 19th-century esoteric movement, explored humanity’s ancient origins and spiritual evolution. Among her teachings, she highlighted the Lemurian race, a primordial spiritual civilization. These beings were initially androgynous, embodying both masculine and feminine qualities within a single form. Over time, this race experienced a division into male and female, marking a pivotal moment in their spiritual journey.
The Divine Cooperation
Following the separation of the sexes, men and women were required to cooperate sexually to perpetuate creation. This cooperation was not merely physical; it was a divine act reflecting the cosmic order. To master this sacred unity, they traveled to temples where they were instructed on how to reproduce in alignment with divine laws—preserving the image and likeness of the cosmic God within themselves.
However, this ideal state did not last. Over time, disobedience, ill will, and lust began to surface. These negative qualities are symbolized by the “666” referenced in biblical texts. As these tendencies grew, the Lemurians turned away from the temple teachings, abandoning divine reproduction. Consequently, they were expelled from paradise.
The Fall from Paradise
In paradise, reproduction was angelic, pure, and free of lust. It reflected the unity of love and divine will. Once lust entered their actions, resulting in the misuse of sacred sexual energy, they began reproducing like animals, spilling the sacred semen. This act of transgressing divine law—symbolized by eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil—led to their fall from a higher spiritual dimension (the fourth dimension) into the material third dimension, associated with earthly and animalistic life.
This fall marked humanity’s entry into the physical world, bringing with it suffering and separation from divine truth.
Returning to Paradise
The path back to paradise requires male and female to rediscover sexual cooperation, not as animals but as true humans. By transforming their approach to reproduction, they can recreate within themselves the image and likeness of God. This transformation mirrors the cosmic order and reflects the solar bodies, the spiritual archetypes associated with the seven main planets of our solar system.
To achieve this spiritual renewal, humanity must overcome the influence of ill will, disobedience, and lust—transforming the “666” into “999.” Initiation is the process of returning to the higher worlds, recreating the true human being in harmony with divine laws.
The sexual act, when approached with love and reverence, becomes a sacred tool for this transformation. A man who loves his wife demonstrates it through his actions, not mere words. Similarly, love for God is reflected in acts of kindness and service to others.
The Power of Love
Christ proclaimed, “My kingdom is not of this world.” To return to this heavenly kingdom, love is indispensable. Love is not an abstract concept; it is a force demonstrated through actions. It is the energy that can lift us back to the heavens.
The sacred energy stored at the base of our spine, in the coccyx, can be awakened and directed upward through the spinal column. As it ascends, vertebra by vertebra, it reaches its culmination in the head, symbolizing spiritual enlightenment and divine connection.
Purification of the Elements
After the fall, humanity’s inner elements—air, water, fire, and earth—became contaminated. These correspond to:
- Air: our thoughts.
- Water: our sexual energy.
- Fire: our emotions.
- Earth: our physical body.
Purifying these elements is essential for spiritual regeneration. This cleansing process begins with the wise use of sexual energy, a cornerstone of the initiatory path.
The Role of the Temples
To achieve this transformation, we must return to the initiatory temples, places of spiritual learning and renewal. These schools of initiation teach the profound mysteries of death, rebirth, and sacrifice for others—essential steps for returning to paradise.
Within the temple, under the guidance of the Divine Mother, the initiate embarks on the narrow and challenging path of self-discovery and purification. This path is likened to the pressure and heat that form diamonds. Just as coal transforms into a diamond through intense conditions, the soul evolves into its highest form through spiritual trials.
Conclusion
The path of initiation is the journey back to the divine state, where humanity once again becomes the image and likeness of God. By transforming our sexual energy, overcoming negative emotions, and living with love, we can reclaim our place in paradise. It is within this sacred process that the true human is born, and the light of the divine illuminates our being.
