Glossary

glossaryProviding the definition and meaning of words and concepts used in the expression of the Gnostic Dharma.

This glossary or dictionary is but a small introduction to the vast scope of the Gnostic Teachings. The knowledge given in the writings of Samael Aun Weor ranges across the whole of human experience and therefore draws on the world's great treasure of language and mystical expression; what cannot be expressed accurately in one language or religious context may find its perfect meaning in another tongue or theology. 

Glorian Publishing invites additions, suggestions and corrections for all the terms in this Glossary.

The Gnostic Glossary is being prepared for a print edition.

Eucharist

(Greek) eukharistia "gratitude," eukharistos "grateful," from eu- "well" kharizesthai "show grace," from kharis "grace."

"Each person can, while alone, pray and persevere in the partaking of the bread and wine. The most powerful prayer is the Our Father.  The bread and wine should always be placed on a clean and perfumed cloth. The bread and wine can only be brought to the mouth after praying. Through the bread and wine, billions of Christic atoms, which come to awaken all our Occult Powers, enter our human organism. Christ, in his capacity as the Cosmic Christ, said: "I am the bread of life, I am the living bread; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live eternally; whoever eats of my flesh and drinks of my blood, he dwells in me and I in him." Now, with this teaching, every human being will be able to Christify himself by means of Sexual Magic and of the Holy Eucharistic Unction. All our brethren must always have the bread and wine at hand, and persevere daily in the Holy Unction." - The Seven Words

Learn about the deep meanings hidden in this famous Biblical story.

"The book of Genesis is a Gnostic book written by Gnostics; the whole book hides the mystery of Daath, the Hebrew word for knowledge, which in Greek is Gnosis. So, Genesis is 100% Gnostic, whose myths hide a lot of knowledge."

"The initiated priest, in a state of ecstasy, perceives the substance of Christ, and magically transmits his own influence on the bread and the wine, thus awakening the Christic substance that is found in these elements which can in turn perform miracles, awakening the Christic powers of our internal bodies." - Samael Aun Weor, The Perfect Matrimony (1950)
