Tablet XIII: The Keys of Life and Death
Excerpt
“Life and death are one in the cycle; they are but gates to the eternal.”
Modern Breakdown
Thoth reveals that death is not an end but a transformation — a passage into another cycle of life. Mastery comes in dissolving the fear of death and recognizing it as a doorway. By remembering this, one lives more fully and dies more consciously, stepping always in alignment with the eternal flame.
Activation
I release the fear of endings.
I embrace the eternal cycle of becoming.
Full text of Tablet 13: The Keys of Life and Death from the Emerald Tablets of Thoth
List ye, O man, hear ye the wisdom. Hear ye the Word that shall fill thee with Life. Hear ye the Word that shall banish the darkness. Hear ye the voice that shall banish the night.
Mystery and wisdom have I brought to my children; knowledge and power descended from old.
Know ye not that all shall be opened when ye shall find the oneness of all? One shall ye be with the Masters of Mystery, Conquerors of Death and Masters of Life.
Aye, ye shall learn of the flower of Amenti, the blossom of life that shines in the Halls. In Spirit shall ye reach that Halls of Amenti and bring back the wisdom that liveth in Light. Know ye the gateway to power is secret, but he who attains shall receive.
Look to the Light! O my brother. Open and ye shall receive. Press on through the dark. Banish the night from your mind. And in the quality of Light ye shall be One with the ALL.
Man is in process of changing to forms that are not of this world. Grows he in time to the formless, a plane on the cycle above. Know ye, ye must become formless before ye are with the Light.
List ye, O man, to my voice, telling of pathways to Light, showing the way of attainment when ye shall be One with the Light.
Search ye the mysteries of Earth’s heart. Learn of the LAW that exists, holding the stars in their balance by the force of the primordial mist.
Seek ye the flame of the Earth’s Life. Bathe in the glare of its flame. Follow the three cornered pathway until thou, too, art a flame.
Speak thou in words without voice to those who dwell down below. Enter the blue litten temple and bathe in the fire of all life.
Know, O man, thou art complex, a being of earth and of fire. Let thy flame shine out brightly. Be thou only the fire. Wisdom is hidden in darkness. When lit by the flame of the Soul, find thou the wisdom and be Light Born, a Sun of the Light without form.
Seek thee ever more wisdom. Find it in the heart of the flame. Know that only by striving can Light pour into thy brain.
Now have I spoken with wisdom. List to my Voice and obey. Tear open the Veils of the darkness. Shine a Light on the Way.
Speak I of Ancient Atlantis, speak of the days of the Kingdom of Shadows, speak of the coming of the children of shadows. Out of the great deep were they called by the wisdom of Earth man, called for the purpose of gaining great power.
Far in the past before Atlantis existed, men there were who delved into darkness, using dark magic, calling up beings from the great deep below us. Forth came they into this cycle. Formless were they of another vibration, existing unseen by the children of earth men. Only through blood could they have formed being; only through man could they live in the world.
In ages past were they conquered by the Masters, driven below to the place whence they came. But some there were who remained, hidden in spaces and plains unknown to man. Lived they in Atlantis as shadows, but at times they appeared among men. Aye, when the blood was offered, for they came they to dwell among men. In the form of man they amongst us, but only to sight were they as are men. Serpent headed when the glamour was lifted, but appearing to man as men among men.
Crept they into the Councils, taking forms that were like unto men. Slaying by their arts the chiefs of the kingdoms, taking their form and ruling o’er man. Only by magic could they be discovered. Only by sound could their faces be seen. Sought they from the Kingdom of Shadows to destroy man and rule in his place. But, know ye, the Masters were mighty in magic, able to lift the Veil from the face of the serpent, able to send him back to his place.
Came they to man and taught him the secret, the Word that only a man can pronounce. Swift then they lifted the Veil from the serpent and cast him forth from the place among men.
Yet, beware, the serpent still liveth in a place that is open at times to the world. Unseen they walk among thee in places where the rites have been said. Again as time passes onward shall they take the semblance of men. Called may they be by the master who knows the white or the black, but only the white master may control and bind them while in the flesh.
Seek not the kingdom of shadows, for evil will surely appear. For only the master of brightness shall conquer the shadow of fear.
Know ye, O my brother, that fear is an obstacle great. Be master of all in the brightness, the shadow will soon disappear.
Hear ye and heed my wisdom, the voice of LIGHT is clear. Seek not the valley of shadow, and Light will only appear.
List ye, O man, to the depth of my wisdom. Speak I of knowledge hidden from man. Far have I been on my journey through space time, even to the end of space of this cycle.
Aye, glimpsed the Hounds of the Barrier, lying in wait for he who would pass them. In that space where time exists not, faintly I sensed the Guardians of Cycles. Move they only through angles. Free are they not of the curved dimensions. Strange and terrible are the Hounds of the Barrier.
Follow they consciousness to the limits of space. Think not to escape by entering your body, for follow they fast the soul through angles. Only the circle will give ye protection, safe from the claws of the DWELLERS IN ANGLES.
Once, in a time past, I approached the great barrier, and saw on the shores where time exists not, the formless forms of the Hounds of the barrier. Aye, hiding in the midst beyond time I found them; and they, scenting me far off, raised themselves and gave the great bell cry that could be heard from cycle to cycle and moved through space toward my soul. Fled I then fast before them, back from time’s unthinkable end. But ever after me pursued they, moving in strange angles not known to man.
Aye, on the gray shores of TIME SPACE’s end found I the Hounds of the Barrier, ravening for the soul who attempts the beyond.
Fled I through circles back to my body. Fled, and fast after me they followed. Aye, after me the devourers followed, seeking through angles to devour my soul.
Aye, know ye man, that the soul who dares the Barrier may be held in bondage by the Hounds from beyond time, held till this cycle is completed and left behind when the consciousness leaves.
Entered I my body. Created the circles that know not angles, created the form that from my form was formed. Made my body into a circle and lost the pursuers in the circles of time. But, even yet, when free from my body, cautious ever must I be not to move through angles, else my soul may never be free.
Know ye, the Hounds of the Barrier move only through angles and never through curves of space. Only by moving through curves can ye escape them, or in angles they will pursue thee.
O man, heed ye my warning; seek not to break open the gate to beyond. Few there are who have succeeded in passing the Barrier to the greater Light that shines beyond. For know ye, ever the dwellers, seek such souls to hold in their thrall.
List ye, O man, and heed ye my warning: Seek ye to move not in angles but curves. And if while free from thy body, thou hearest the sound like the bay of a hound ringing clear and bell like through thy being, flee back to thy body through circles, penetrate not the mist before. When thou hast entered the form thou hast dwelt in, use thou the cross and the circle combined.
Open thy mouth and use thou thy Voice. Utter the Word and thou shalt be free. Only the one who of Light has the fullest can hope to pass by the guards of the way. And then must he move through strange curves and angles that are formed in direction not known to man.
List ye, O man, and heed ye my warning: attempt not to pass the guards in the way. Rather should ye seek to gain of thine own Light and make thyself ready to pass on the way.
Light is thine ultimate end, O my brother. Seek and find ever the Light on the way.
Closing Seal
“You have walked the arc of the Tablets,
and within each word you have met yourself anew.
Let this knowledge not rest as ink upon page,
but as living fire within your being.
Go forth as a bearer of the Flame,
and may your path ever spiral upward,
back into the Source from which you came.”
Activation: “The Flame within me is eternal, and I walk in its light.”
“Step onward, Seeker, the Flame goes with you.”
