“Do not hate.”
Apocalypsis Nova
&
The Emerald Tablet
Starting with thoughts from fellow Illuminatus;
“For all those who wish to have knowledge
of Love, which is the beginning and end of all virtues and all effort, they
have only to see what is hate. For hate is the most odious of all things, and
which can never be pardoned. Thus, if man considers nothing more detestable
than hate, he is then of God, who never manifests Himself completely except by
Love. I say to you, if a family member, even your brother, presents a difficult
character in his relations with you, but if you know, however, that he loves
you from the bottom of his heart, you will endure his acrimony with a certain
indulgence. If, on the contrary, you know that he hates you, from some cares,
some caresses with which he surrounds you, you will be unable to bear his
presence. It is certain that hatred is the worst iniquity, it is like the abyss
of Charybdis, a monstrous thing that envelops, stifles and kills. For one can
only live through the Spirit, which is Love in substance.”
“There is no
sin greater than hate. People have said to me that there are others. Not so;
and as for me, I say that those who seek to become adepts of Truth must first
hear the truth.”
“For it is certain
that there is no remission for he who sins against the Spirit, not now nor
ever, for the Spirit is the Love of God, and he who has not the Spirit has not
Love. Now, Love is attracted to Love. Where there is hate, the Spirit is not,
that is to say, there, there is only death.”

That which is below is like that which is above & that which is above is like that which is below to do the miracles of one only thing.
And as all things have been & arose from one by the mediation of one: so all things have their birth from this one thing by adaptation.
The Sun is its father, the moon its mother, the wind hath carried it in its belly, the earth is its nurse.
The father of all perfection in the whole world is here.
Its force or power is entire if it be converted into earth.
Separate thou the earth from the fire, the subtle from the gross sweetly with great industry.
It ascends from the earth to the heaven & again it descends to the earth & receives the force of things superior & inferior.
By this means you shall have the glory of the whole world
& thereby all obscurity shall fly from you.
Its force is above all force. For it vanquishes every subtle thing & penetrates every solid thing.
So was the world created.
From this are & do come admirable adaptations whereof the means (or process) is here in this. Hence I am called Hermes Trismegist, us having the three parts of the philosophy of the whole world.
That which I have said of the operation of the Sun is accomplished & ended.
