THE TANTRAYUDHA OF SAI RAM, VOLUME 98

BY SWAMI TANTRASANGHA


CARTEL WHOREHOUSE HELL geneticrejuv...

Thanks K.P., for the nice revisit to Net Prophet! I just had to
reprint your following article about the "whorehouse hell" of the
organized medical-pharmaceutical-religion cartel. Jai Om. - Sw.
Tantrasangha

HEALTH SECRETS

THIS IS THE KIND OF INFORMATION THE
AMERICAN MURDER ASSOCIATION
DOESN'T WANT YOU TO HAVE!

If you didn't get sick, they'd have to get real jobs.
If you could cure yourself in the event you DID get sick,
. . . they'd have to quit the Country Club.

If you didn't Consume endless amounts of deadly drugs, and more
endless deadly drugs to counter their deadly side effects, the [NO
War On These!] Drug Companies would go bankrupt.

Your body was designed to run itself for a lifetime with little or no
intervention on your part. Sure, things can go wrong. Responding to
something going wrong by making it considerably worse with painful,
destructive and possibly deadly responses is NOT HIP. In fact, it's
a BAD IDEA.

The tradition of non-invasive, non-poisonous, non-destructive medical
arts goes back at least four thousand years with the Asians, but we
dont like to think about that here in the west. Now we have "modern"
burning, maiming, and poisoning bankruptive allopathic
treatment . . . a treat for the voodoo doodoo and his creditors,
but not for the patients.

If you wouldn't do it to yourself when your are well . . .
WHY in the world would you do it to yourself when you are sick?

If the medicine man isn't willing to perform the "treatment"
or "procedure" on himself and all his children, to show you that it's
completely benign, safe and painless . . . WHY would you let
him "perform" it on you, especially if you are already ill? Are you
desperate for depravity? Do you WANT to die . . . in a horrible and
expensive manner? Would you rather bequeath your estate to your
executioners than to your family? Do you enjoy paying extra for
extra suffering? If not, read on.

There are many things you can do yourself to improve your health,
which cost little or nothing, and are safe and painless too! Of
course, you won't find big drug companies spending millions of
dollars researching them . . . because there is no money in them.
You won't find the witch doctors studying and practicing them . . .
because there is no money in them. You won't find whole wings of
hospitals dedicated to them . . . because there is no money in them.
You won't find research foundations and government associations
promoting them . . . because there is no money in them. You won't
find HMO's recommending them . . . because there is no money in
them. You won't find insurance companies listing them as approved
treatments . . . because there is no money in them.

I think you're probably beginning to catch my drift here.
Most of those cheap, safe and easy treatments are either ignored or
suppressed by witch doctors of death. Of course, if they start
becoming popular Without Offical Approval, in spite of the Quack,
Quack, Quacking of the body butcher's bellicose belligerent monopoly
trade union, the standard remedy is to make them illegal, and
imprison anybody who is actually saving lives with them.


THE CHILD IN HIDING

The Inner Child (Son) is our own Genetic Rejuvenation. Sai Ram
"Then I witnessed in heaven an event of great significance. I saw a
woman clothed with the sun, with the moon beneath her feet, and a
crown of twelve stars in her head. She was pregnant (with Genetic
Rejuvenation), and she cried out in the pain of labor as she awaited
her delivery (to be "born again of water and Spirit").

"Suddenly, I witnessed in heaven another significant event, I saw a
large red dragon with seven heads and ten horns with seven crowns on
his heads. His tail dragged down one-third of the stars, which he
threw to the earth. He stood before the woman as she was about to
give birth to her child, ready to devour (destroy) the baby (the
Reborn) as soon as it was (re)born.

"She gave (re)birth to a boy (an Inner Rebirth), who was to rule all
nations with an iron rod. And the child was snatched away from the
dragon and was caught up to God and to his throne. And the woman fled
into the wilderness, where God had prepared a place to give her
(Rebirth of father and mother) care for 1,260 days." (Revelation 12:
1-6, from the Holy Bible)


PAST LIFE MEMORIES OF RASA TANTRA geneticrejuv...

Mormons do not believe in Scientific Method in
religion, so they don't practice Rasa Tantra. They are an "uphill
battle" all the way. You are the second member of the group to have
actual past life memories of the practice of Rasa Tantra (the
Marriage Supper of the Lamb of God). My guru first learned of it from
past life memories in dreams, also. In addition to the thousands of
documented case histories of remarkable cures of many illnesses with
Urine Therapy, and thousands of quotes about Rasa Tantra from the
scriptures of all major religions, we are now having members come
forth with memories of this practice.

All of this constitutes our "Secondary Analysis" - a mountain of
evidence, which warrants Experimental Research to prove or diprove
our "theories" of Rasa Tantra or Project Genesis in actual practice.
In fact, there are some members planning to be such Experimental
Subjects. With everything to win and nothing to lose by these
harmless practices, why not try it to find out for one's self? Don't
forget to let us know the results. Jai Om. - Swami Tantrasangha


RESURRECTION UNTO IMMORTALITY

"Thus we see by what means the Egyptians believed that mortal man could
be raised from the dead, and attain unto life everlasting. The
resurrection was the object with which every prayer was said and every
ceremony performed, and every text, and every amulet, and every
formula, of each and every period, was intended to enable the mortal to
put on immortality and to live eternally in a transformed glorified
body. If this fact be borne in mind many apparent difficulties will
disappear before the readers in this perusal of Egyptian texts, and the
religion of the Egyptians will be seen to possess a consistence of aim
and a steadiness of principle which, to some, it at first appears to
lack. - E. Wallis Budge (the world's most famous Egyptologist)


FROM PETA-AMEN-AP

Sacred Texts Egypt
THE LITURGY OF FUNERARY OFFERINGS.
II. FROM THE TOMB OF PETA-AMEN-AP.
1. THE CHAMBER WHEREIN THE CEREMONY TUAT SHALL BE PERFORMED HAVING
BEEN PROVIDED WITH OFFERINGS, THE ALTAR SHALL BE PURIFIED FOR THE KA
(OR THE DOUBLE) OF THE CHIEF KHER HEB OF NEB-HETEPET, THE PRIEST PETA-
AMEN-AP.

The following shall be recited by the priest four times:--

Here water shall be sprinkled, and the following words shall be
recited four times:--

"the fluid [of life] shall not be destroyed in thee, and thou shalt
not be destroyed in it."

During the recital of the following words incense shall be burned.

"4. Let him that advanceth advance with his KA. Horus advanceth with
his KA. Osiris advanceth with his KA (soul body, double).

The priest shall say the following words four times, and a libation,
made with one grain of Shet-pet incense and one grain of incense of
Nekheb, shall be poured out during their recital.

"7. This libation is for thee, O Osiris, this libation
is for thee, O chief KHER HEB PETA-AMEN-AP, Coming forth from thy
son, coming forth from Horus.

"8. I have come, and I have brought unto thee the Eye of Horus, that
thy heart may be refreshed thereby. I have brought it unto thee under
thy feet, and have presented unto thee the EFFLUX which cometh forth
therefrom.

"9. No stoppage of thy heart shall arise therefrom, and there shall
be a coming forth to thee through the word which is spoken (or the
voice)."

Here pour out water in which a cake of incense of Nekhebet of the
South hath been dissolved, and say:--

"10. taste thou the taste
thereof in the divine hall. An emission of Horus

"11. is the cleansing water of natron, an emission of Set is the
cleansing water of natron, and the cleansing water of natron
stablisheth the heart of the Two Divine Lords. Thou art cleansed with
natron, and thou art a pure being among the divine Followers of
Horus."

Here shall be poured out water in which a cake of incense of the
North from Shet-pet hath been dissolved.

"12. Thou art purified with natron, and Horus is purified with
natron.

"13. Thy mouth is the mouth of a sucking calf on the day of his
birth."

Here take a cake of incense, and lift it up to the face, and say:--

"14. Thou art purified with natron, and thy KA is purified with
natron. Thou art purified with natron. Thou art purified with natron.
Thou art purified with natron, O thou who art stablished among

"15. the gods thy brethren, Thou art purified in respect of thy head.
Thou art purified in respect of thy mouth. Thy bones have been made
pure wholly.

[paragraph continues] Thou art filled by that which cometh to thee, O
PETA-AMEN-AP I have given unto thee the Eye of Horus, and thy face is
filled therewith, and it spreadeth abroad its odour."

Here the priest shall take the instrument Kef-pesesh
(i.e., "Overcomer of the division"), and shall say:--

"19. Hail, chief KHER HEB PETA-AMEN-AP, the Eye of Horus hath been
presented unto thee, and he cometh with it. I have brought it unto
thee, place, thou it in thy mouth."

Here shall the priest take a vessel of milk and a vessel of water,
and say:--

"21. [That which floweth] from the breast of Horus, and is of his
body, hath been presented unto thee for thy mouth. That which cometh
from the breast of thy sister Isis, the emission of the mother, 22.
hath been seized by thee for thy mouth, and thou openest thy mouth by
means of it, O chief KHER HEB PETA-AMEN-AP."

Here shall the priest pour out fresh water of the North and of the
South, and say:--

"23. This [is] a libation unto thee, Osiris, a libation unto thee, O
chief KHER HEB PETA-AMEN-AP, which cometh forth from thy son. 24. I
have come and I have brought unto thee the Eye of Horus whereby thy
heart shall be refreshed. I have brought it to

thy feet, and have presented unto thee that which bath flowed forth
from thee. No stoppage of thy heart [shall there be] to thee. Having
it, 25. a going forth [of things (or, persons)] shall there be to
thee through the word."


FROM THE PYRAMID OF UNAS AT SAQARRA

Here one sees the repetition, characteristic of Egyptian scriptures.
First the literal, then the symbolic. Jai Ankh. Sai Ram

140. Osiris Unas, the Eye of Horus hath been presented
unto thee, and the fire of wrath rageth in him against thee.
[Here offer] two vessels of Khenemes drink.
"141. Osiris Unas, thou art filled with that which hath been pressed
out and hath COME FORTH FROM THEE.
[Here offer] two vessels of Heqt beer.
"142. Osiris Unas, thou art filled with that which hath been pressed
out and hath come forth from thee.
[Here offer] two vessels of Sekhpet grain.
"143. Osiris Unas, thou art filled with that which hath been pressed
out and hath come forth from thee.
[Here offer] two vessels of Pekh grain.
"144. Osiris Unas, thou art filled with that which hath been pressed
out and hath come forth from thee.
[Here offer] two vessels of Heqt beer.


FROM AM-TUAT

Sacred Texts Egypt
CHAPTER XII.
THE TWELFTH DIVISION OF THE TUAT, WHICH IS CALLED THEN-NETERU.
THE TWELFTH DIVISION 1 of the Tuat, which is passed through by the
Sun-god during the TWELFTH HOUR of the night, is introduced by three
lines of text, which read:--

"The Majesty of this great god taketh up his position in this Circle,
which is the uttermost limit of thick darkness, and this great god is
born in his form of Khepera in this Circle, and Nut (Female Water)
and Nu (Male Water) are in this Circle for the (re)birth of this
great god when he cometh forth from the Tuat (literally?) and taketh
up his position in the Matet Boat, and when he riseth up from the
thighs ofNut. The name of the Gate of this City is THEN-NETERU.

"The hidden Circle in the Tuat (Yoni?) wherein this great god is
born; he cometh forth into the pool of Nu, and he taketh up his place
in the body of Nut." Nut literally means "female water", and is the
name for the Sky Goddess. By this water, men can "astrally project".


THE VALLEY OF DECISION

Urine Therapy is advisable for Leukemia, but MD,s risk their licences
if they recommend therapies not as yet approved, and, of course,
there will be no official investigation into the efficacy of Urine
Therapy, since there is no money in it. This is when you must "come
to grips" with the fact that the "authorities" are selfish, cowardly,
and greedy liars, and do not have the patient's best interests at
heart.

See the files section for testimonials. The best online testimonials
are in Spanish, from "Paraiso de la Salud", in Mexico. If you run it
in your search engine, the search page click-on has an electronic
translation function , which renders an atrocious excuse for a
translation. I prefer to struggle with the Spanish, using a
dictionary. Also, "The Water of Life: A Treatise on Urine Therapy" by
J.W. Armstrong, has many documented case histories. The best
collection of case histories is "Manav Mootra (Auto-Urine Therapy)" by
Dr. Raojibhai Patel, MD, but it is not generally available.

We all had to settle for the testimonials of those who had the Faith
to try Urine Therapy. Although there is an increasing number of
scientific commentaries on Urine Therapy, by comparison with the hi-
tech, hi-finance studies done on other drugs and therapies, Urine
Therapy still has the simplest of explanations as to HOW it
works. "Painting with a broad brush", I hope it is not too simplistic
to explain that urine has Antigens and Antibodies to boost immunity, and
Urea for building tissue and as a body-friendly antiseptic. The
immune system also requires a Nitrogen source, such as Urea or
protein. Hormones and enzymes come next. The stomach's main digestive
enzyme, Bile, gives urine its yellow color.

In the end, it is "every coward for himself", when it comes to
deciding how to save one's own life. No one can be completely
trusted, and the final decision is one's own. Since I am writing this
free of charge, because of my interest in Hermetic Science, and for
my love of mankind, I should hope that might "carry some weight" in
your decision process. The Holy Bible has the story that the world's
masses "all met in the Valley of Decision". I assume the "decision"
here is: What is the most important decision of my life? Could it be
the controversy over religions of personality worship vs. the Yoga of
being Rejuvenated of Bioplasma and the powers of the Holy Spirit? And
where does Urine Therapy fit in?

Most who were active in spreading the word about Urine Therapy, did
not make the transition to it's orphaned cousin, Urine Tantra. The
little bit of increased complexity seemed too much for the normal
Urine Therapy advocates, who can only understand the simplest of
explanations. Try Urine Therapy for Leukemia. Add colloidal silver
for infections. Make your own Colloidal Silver. The store-bought
stuff is impotent. Urine Therapy has arrived to its own level of
mindless conformity. That is why it must "break new ground" in the
realm of Creative Theology, by virtue of the Experimental Theory of
Urine Tantra for couples, with its even more promising results. Jai
Om. Sai Ram

U.S. ARMY GEN. ETHAN ALLEN HITCHCOCK - FATHER OF AMERICAN ALCHEMY

ETHAN ALLEN HITCHCOCK
Ethan Allen Hitchcock was born at Vergennes, Vermont, May 18, 1798.
His father was a lawyer of reputation, his mother a daughter of the
famous Ethan Allen, after whom he was named. It is not our purpose to
here deal with the youth, education or military record of General
Hitchcock, (1) much of which has been interwoven throughout this
volume in connection with the many other Dramatis Personæ of the
Arcane Drama.
In truth, beginning with 1845 and until his death, General Hitchcock
either as himself or under one of his Philosophic Initiate names
conferred upon him by the Hierarchy, was connected in one way or
another with almost every active Grand Dome, whether of Germany,
France, England, other European countries, or America. To the members
of The Fraternitas Rosæ Crucis, General Hitchcock was known, and is
known, as one of its highest Hermetic, Alchemic Philosophic
Initiates; as one who attained to the highest degree of Arcane
knowledge.

To the non-Initiate reading public he is best known by his work,
Alchemy and the Alchemists, wherein he freely offers the key to
Alchemy to all who can read and understand.

"I am convinced," says Hitchcock, "that the character of the
Alchemists, and the object of their study, have been universally
misconceived; and as a matter of fact [proven such by experience],
the subject is of such importance to the seeker for truth, that the
mystery should be revealed.

"The opinion has become almost universal, that Alchemy is
a 'pretended science by which gold and silver were to be made by the
transmutation being called the Philosopher's Stone.' Those who
professed this Art are supposed to have been either impostors or
under the delusion created by impostors and mountebanks. (2)

"This opinion has found its way into the works of Science, and has
been stereotyped in biographical dictionaries and in encyclopedias,
large and small; and, in general, allusions of Alchemy, in histories,
romances, and novels, are of but one character, and imply that the
professors of the Art were either deluders or deluded, were guilty of
fraud or the victims of it. (3)

"It may seem a hopeless task to announce a different persuasion with
the expectation of superseding this deeply rooted prejudice; but the
author [hereof] feels it a duty to declare the opinion he has derived
from a careful study of many alchemical volumes." (4)

In the remarks that follow he has taken for his thesis the
proposition that Man [and not a metal or an ore] was the subject of
Alchemy; and that the object of the Art is the perfection, or at
least, the improvement, of Man.

"The salvation of man—his transformation from evil [carnality] to
good [purity], or his passage from a state of nature to one of grace—
was symbolized under the figure of the transmutation of metals. Under
this point of view the works of the Alchemists may be regarded as
treatises upon spiritual-religious education.

"The writings of the Alchemists are all symbolical, and under the
words gold, silver, lead, salt, sulphur, mercury, antimony, arsenic,
orpiment, sol, lune, wine, acid, alkali, and a thousand other words
and expressions, infinitely varied, may be found the opinions of the
several writers upon the great question of God, nature, and man [man
the middle between God and Nature], all brought into or developed
from one central point, which is Man, AS [in] THE IMAGE OF GOD.

"I am perfectly aware of the latitude of interpretation to which all
symbolical writings are exposed [in the hands of the profane]. It is
possible for an undisciplined [unenlightened] imagination to make
from such writings anything of anything, and, indeed, to make almost
anything of nothing.

"I feel myself in position, and justified, in warning the reader of
all symbolical works, that they cannot be too cautious and guarded
against supplying from their own imagination and afterthoughts,
interpretations to all such works. They should hold themselves
absolutely upon the immovable foundation of truth and nature, whereby
alone they can save themselves from misapprehensions and from the
danger of being entirely carried away from reality into mere dreams
and fictions.

"While this form of [symbolic] teaching appears naturally to have
been adopted by genius from the earliest times, its preservation
appears to be due to a corresponding working in the human mind, to
which all symbolism is addressed. It is plain that, if a symbolic
work finds no echo in the human heart, it must quickly perish.

"Wherever such works have been preserved through many ages, it is
fair to presume that their authors have struck a vein of imperishable
truth [because that for which there is no use, dies].

"In the instance of those [professed] Alchemists who promised great
riches, it is admitted that multitudes of men were deluded by the
mere literal reading of their words, or rather by their own absorbing
desire for wealth [for is it not true that avarice seals its own
doom?]. Such men were said, by the true Alchemists, to have 'the gold
fever, which had darkened their good senses.' Men wholly bent on
wordly treasures were the dupes of their own passions, rather than
deceived by the writings or pretenses of those who claimed to be
Alchemists. The riches of the true Alchemists are 'the riches of the
Wisdom and knowledge of God.' —Rom. XI: 33, and 'of his grace.'
Ephes. 11:7.

"The Alchemists [and all Philosophic Initiates of whatever school]
were reformers in their time [Luther, Paracelsus, Agrippa, Andrea,
Cagliostro, Saint Germaine, Boyle, Ramsey, Paine, Franklin, Clymer,
LaFayette, and many others], obliged to work in secret and unknown at
the time, nevertheless making history and their impression upon the
public [for which the public was thankful in due time]. For the most
part they lived in ages when an open expression of their opinions,
and knowledge of their efforts, would have brought them into conflict
with the superstitions [and bigotry] of the times, and exposed them
to all manner of persecution, even the rack and the stake; where,
indeed, many of them did perish, not being sufficiently guarded in
their language.

"These men were religious when the spirit of religion was buried in
forms and ceremonies, and when the priesthood had armed itself with
the civil powers to put down all opposition, and suppress all
freedom, intellectual, civil, and religious.

"It was in that midnight of darkness that a light from heaven was
discussed in books for the initiated [those who knew], as the Elixir
of Life, the Water of Life, the Universal Medicine, and the
Philosopher's Stone.

"The volumes in which this thought of the time was enshrined were
written in symbolic form [in the jargon of Alchemy], to hide the
subject from those not sufficiently awakened to profit by it, and to
screen the authors from persecution. These volumes are measurably
forgotten, . . . yet exist for us and for future times as marvelous
skeletons, wherein may be found abundant evidences that there
were 'giants in those days.'

"The authors made but little show in the world, living as they did in
retirement and as the Unknowns, and relying as they did on the 'Still
Small Voice' wherein lay chiefly their much talked of secret.

"I have examined a great many alchemical works, at a time of life and
under circumstances [active as a successful soldier in the field]
when the imagination, if it ever deceived me, has 'yielded its
plumage,' and I feel entirely able, as I am certainly willing, to see
things as they are.

"I therefore say, after much study and deliberation, that the works
of the genuine Alchemists, excluding those of ignorant imitators and
vicious impostors, are all essentially religious [spiritual in
essence], and that the best external assistance for their
interpretation may be found in a study of the Holy Scriptures, and
chiefly in the New Testament; that 'Light which was, before the
Light,' being by no means, and on no account, overlooked.

"There is no doubt that an abundance of impostors played upon the
credulity and cupidity of the public. The genuine Alchemists
[Initiates] were religious men, who passed their time and efforts in
legitimate pursuits, earning an honest subsistence, and in religious
contemplation, studying how to realize within themselves the union of
the Divine with the human nature, expressed in man by an enlightened
submission to God's Will; and they thought out and published, after a
manner of their own, a method of attaining or entering upon this
state, as the only rest of the Soul.

"My proposition is, that the subject of Alchemy was [is] Man; while
the object was the perfection of Man, which was attained by means of
unity with the Divine nature. (5)

"All of the [genuine] Alchemists, so far as I have examined their
writings, might place in the 'forefront' of their works a number of
those enlightening passages from Scripture, as indicating their
doctrines and objects, among them the following, which I give in the
order of their application to the Great Work, as the Alchemists have
always called their Art:

" `Give not that which is holy unto the dogs [reveal not that to the
ignorant for which they are unprepared], neither cast ye your pearls
before swine [give not that which is of value to the unappreciative],
lest they trample them under their feet [make evil or carnal use of
things sacred], and turn again and rend you [condemn you] for
enlightening them.'—Matt. 7:6.

" `And with many such parables [by illustration] spake he the word
unto them, as they were able to hear it [able to comprehend].'—Mark
4:33.

" `But without a parable spake he not unto them [those who could not
understand]: and when they were alone, he expounded all things
[revealed the Arcane meaning] to his disciples.'—Mark 4:34.

" `Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth
understanding. For the merchandise [value thereof] of it is better
than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
She [Sophia] is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou
canst desire are not to be compared unto her. Length of days [the
Water of Life] is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and
honor [all good things and Immortality].'—Pro. 3:13, 14, 15, 16.

" `Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from
the words of my mouth. Forsake her [Sophia—Wisdom] not, and she shall
preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.'—Pro. 4:5, 6.

"Notwithstanding this high Ecclesiastical authority, he who dared
accept truth only because it could be proved, or proved to be good,
and disregard authority, was commonly stigmatized [still is, vide
Paine] as an infidel [however much good he might do to the world].

"The Alchemists as a whole, standing upon this principle, would have
been persecuted had they published their opinions openly. For the
most part they lived at a period when it was established by
authority, that coercion and violence be legitimately employed to
force men, by any means whatever, into the established public faith
or opinion, the imagined enemies of which, besides being held up to
public abhorrence, were often burned at the stake to the edification
of that same public.

"The intolerance of the Middle, and even later, Ages, is a fact all
too familiar to every one. I have no disposition to dwell upon it;
and have referred to it only to assign it as one cause for the
esoteric writings of the Alchemists [and all Initiates]. They
communicated with each other by symbols [as is done in chemistry
today], writing of salt, sulphur, mercury, etc., and of the
transmutation of metals, by which they saved their heads, though they
plunged hundreds and thousands of the profane into vain and seemingly
useless efforts to find a tangible agent for turning the baser metals
into gold. 'Who is to blame,' wrote one of them, 'the Art, or those
who seek it upon false principles [and for selfish reasons]?'

"Another reason for their obscure mode of writing was of a higher
order, and it was this: that, as most men were educated in religious
tenets according to tradition, without understanding the true grounds
of the doctrines imposed upon them, it was not considered safe to
shake the hold of the tradition by proposing a new rule of conduct,
not easily comprehended.

"In other words, it was believed to be better for society that
[unenlightened] men should be held to their duty by hope and fear,
than be exposed to injury by a misunderstood doctrine of freedom; FOR
MAN IS NOT MADE FREE BY DENYING THE FALSE, BUT BY LIVING IN THE
TRUTH, and thereby becoming so strong that he is willing and ready,
if need be, to die for the truth.

" 'The truth shall make you free [but only as you accept and apply
it],' was the doctrine of Alchemy, the Initiates, and of the
Nazarene's Gospel.

"With the Alchemists, the ancient saying, KNOW THYSELF, as inscribed
upon the Temple of Apollo, attributed by some to Pythagoras, the
father of Philosophy, by others to the Egyptians, as an injunction,
was the foundation of all wisdom. In this knowledge was incorporated
the knowledge of God also; not that God is in man except as he is in
all things, but that the knowledge of God lies in the nature of man
[and may, by conscious effort be brought into manifestation]. He who
seeks elsewhere, is on a journey away from the object he seeks, and
will assuredly be disappointed."

Despite his military activity, his extensive travels and the various
offices he held, Hitchcock was a voluminous writer. His first work
was published in 1855 while he was stationed at Carlisle, Penna.
Following is a short list of some of his most important:

Remarks on Alchemy and the Alchemists. Indicating a method of
discovering the true nature of the Hermetic Philosophy, and showing
that the search after the Philosopher's Stone had for its object the
discovery of an Agent for the transmutation of metals; being also an
attempt to rescue from undeserved disgrace the reputation of a class
of extraordinary thinkers of the past. "Man shall not live by bread
alone." 1855.

Christ, the Spirit. An attempt to state the primitive views of
Christianity. "It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth
nothing." John VI: 23. And again: "The letter killeth, but the Spirit
giveth life."—II Cor. 1:6. 1860.

An eminent clergyman of the period said of this book:

"A sweeter moral atmosphere we never breathed than pervades every
paragraph of these two volumes. There is no harshness, there is no
intolerance, there is no dogmatism, no assumption of superior wisdom.
Its charity is perfect, for there is no air of charitableness about
it; it is the good will of an honest, believing and gentle mind. We
can scarcely think of a theologian who might not with profit sit at
the feet of this brave soldier and listen as he talks of religion."

Remarks on the Sonnets of Shakespeare. With the Sonnets, showing they
belonged to an Hermetic class of writings, and explaining their
general meaning and purpose. 1866.

When in Washington, General Hitchcock was one of the leaders of what
was then the most exclusive study center—the Rosicrucian Club. In
America this gathering included many Unknowns active in many
departments of State, with Lincoln and Randolph as members, the three
composing the American Council of Three of The Fraternitas Rosæ
Crucis. The Club compared favorably with the Order of the Rose in
England.

General Hitchcock was a member of the Order of the Rose of England,
and of L'Ordre du Lis of France and patterned the Rosicrucian Club of
Washington somewhat after the two. He also was a member of the Order
of the Double Eagle of Austria.

General Hitchcock performed every duty
honorably and faithfully. This can also be said with equal truth of
his duty to the Nation and the people. He entered the realm of Light,
August 5, 1870.

It is generally conceded that General Hitchcock had collected the
largest library of books and MS. on Alchemy of any living man and
possessed all of the works of French writers on the subject.
Frequently he carried with him from location to location as many as
500 volumes on the subject. A considerable number of the most
valuable and rare of these volumes are at present in the possession
of the Mercantile Library Association, St. Louis, Missouri.
