Lorsque l'homme s'empare du bâton de Thot

Lorsque l'homme s'empare du bâton de Thot, il possède la pierre philosophale, la baguette magique du mage de Lumière qui incarne l'esprit dans la forme parfaite. Pour s'emparer du bâton de Thot, il doit séparer en lui-même les deux serpents, le subtil de l'épais, pour les harmoniser et les équilibrer l'un par l'autre dans sa vie quotidienne. Les deux serpents sont un symbole analogue aux deux principes, aux deux branches qui forment la croix de la vie. Tous les problèmes que peut rencontrer l'homme dans sa vie quotidienne viennent du fait qu'il n'a pas encore réussi à harmoniser les deux principes cosmiques en lui.

Never forget that there is a spirit dwelling in you

"Never forget that there is a spirit dwelling in you, a spark that
burst from the bosom of the Eternal, from the primordial fire, to
be embodied in matter. This spark carries within it all the
divine plans, and the only purpose of all its wanderings through
matter is to bring these plans to fruition. But in order to
survive it needs food.
One of the symbols of food, both physical and spiritual, is
bread. Jesus said, ‘I am the bread of life…’, ‘I am the living
bread that came down from heaven’. And on the evening of the Last
Supper, he blessed the bread to give to his disciples, saying,
‘Eat, this is my body.’ So bread represents the elements of the
divine life. When we come to the earth, we already possess some
of these elements. Those who wasted them in their previous
incarnations by not living moderately must try to recover them;
otherwise, they will continue their journey amid great
difficulties. In an initiatic school, we are simply filling our
inner sacks and granaries, that is to say, our mind, heart, soul
and spirit, with this living bread that has come down from
heaven.  "
