nce the myths gave the old
form, in order to communicate the content of the Mysteries in a
way that was generally comprehensible.
P. 88--Everything that relates to knowledge gained through the
"eyes of the spirit" is called by ancient mysticism "Mantik."
"Telestik," on the other hand, is the indication of the ways which
lead to initiation.
P. 168--"Kabirs," according to ancient mysticism, are beings with
a consciousness far above the human consciousness of to-day.
Schelling means that man through initiation ascends to a state of
consciousness above his present one.
P. 186--An explanation of the meaning of the number seven may be
obtained in _An Outline of Occult Science_ (see advt., front
page).
P. 187--The meanings of the Apocalyptic signs can only be given
quite shortly here. Of course, all these things might be much more
thoroughly explained, but of this the scope of this book does not
allow.
