1.    I will sing praises unto thee, O Light, for I desired to come unto thee.  I will sing thee praises, O Light, for thou art my deliverer.

2.    Leave me not in the chaos.  Save me, O Light of the Height, for it is thou that I have praised.

3.    Thou has sent me thy light through thyself and hast saved me.  Thou hast let me to the higher regions of the chaos.

4.    May the emanations of Self-willed which pursue me, sink down into the lower regions of the chaos, and let them not come to the higher regions to see me.

5.    And may great darkness cover them and darker gloom come over them.  And let them not see me in the light of thy power, which thou hast sent unto me to save me, so that they may not get dominion over me.

6.    And let not their resolution which they have formed, to take away my power, take effect for them.  And as they have spoken against me, to take from me my light, take rather from them theirs instead of mine.

7.    And they have proposed to take away my whole light and have not been able to take it, for thy light-power was with me.

8.    Because they have taken counsel without thy commandment, O Light, therefore have they not been able to take away my light.

9.    Because I have had faith in the Light, I shall not be afraid; and the Light is my deliverer and I shall not fear.

“Now, therefore, let him whose power is exalted, speak the solution of the words which Pistis Sophia hath uttered.”

And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished speaking these words unto his disciples, that Salome came forward and said:  “My Lord, my power constraineth me to speak the solution of the words which Pistis Sophia hath uttered.  Thy power hath prophesied aforetime through Solomon, saying...”

Christ, the Light, is the deliverer of Pistis Sophia.

The Intimate Christ can and must take the Initiate out of the Chaos.

The Intimate Lord can take us to the most elevated zones of the Chaos.

The emanations of the ego are sinking and disintegrating into the inferior Chaos.

The tenebrous ones must submerge themselves into the Abyss and Sophia must make herself invisible to them.

The tenebrous ones fight in order to make the Initiate fall, in order to trap him, so that the liberation should not be permitted to him.

Christ can protect the Gnostic ascetic, if this is His will.

The tenebrous powers celebrate reunions in order to plan attacks against Pistis Sophia.

The Gnostic has faith in Christ and He saves him.

Salome interpreteth the song of Sophia from the Odes of Solomon

1.    I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, for thou art my God.

2.    Abandon me not, O Lord, for thou art my hope.

3.    Thou hast given me thy vindication for naught, and I am saved through thee.

4.    Let them who pursue me, fall down and let them not see me.

5.    May a smoke-cloud cover their eyes and an air-mist darken them, and let them not see the day, so that they may not seize me.

6.    May their resolution be impotent, and may what they concoct come upon them.

7.    They have devised a resolution, and it hath not taken effect for them.

8.    And they are vanquished, although they be mighty, and what they have wickedly prepared is fallen upon them.

9.    My hope is in the Lord, and I shall not be afraid, for thou art my God, my Saviour.

It came to pass then, when Salome had finished saying these words, that Jesus said unto her:  “Well said, Salome: and finely.  This is the solution of the Words which Pistis Sophia hath uttered.”

The force of gratitude causes the plant to germinate in the orchard of the Gnostic Ascetic.

The force of gratitude causes the plant to bear fruit.

The force of cosmic gratitude makes universal life fertile.

In some way, we must express our gratitude to the Creator.

Our Intimate God deserves our eternal gratitude.

All our hope is concerned with the Intimate Christ.

The one who works on himself has hope in the Intimate Christ.

Only the Intimate Christ can give us revindication and save us.

Great is the work of the Intimate Christ, working in and within us, with immense sacrifice.  This is the nature of the Salvatur Salvandus.

May the inhuman elements, which we carry within and which pursue us as an evil shade, fall down.

May the tenebrous elements submerge themselves within the darkness of the Abyss.  These are our elements.

These are the living personifications of oneself.

May all the concoctions of those perverse ones who dwell within ourselves fall upon them.

They are the red demons of Seth, the perverse ones and subjective parts of the abominable ego.

May all that which the red demons of Seth have wickedly prepared fall upon them.

Hope is in the Intimate Christ, in the Martyr of Calvary, who must live the complete Cosmic Drama within the Bodhisattva.

The Cosmic Drama is never exclusively historic.  This Drama is a palpitating actuality and the Intimate Christ must live it within ourselves, here and now.

The processes of the Cosmic Drama are written within the Four Gospels of the Lord.
