The Tree of Knowledge

[Mercury Trismagistus]

To carry the Ship of the Sun through the Night Land...to follow the Way of Eternity...Ra Ho Tep holds forth the Cup with the ancient sacrament...we thank Amen Ho Tep for it. An Eye to See and Wings to fly beyond the Firmament...The Nine Great Gods of Life offer it...But only for them who know

Osiris is lord of the Tree of Knowledge
We have betaken ourselves to the Tree of the Divine Ones
We have made the offerings
We have purified ourselves in the waters
We have seen the Other World
And We have held our peace

 

[Mercury Trismagistus]

Osiris...We the grateful dead...salute you
Let us enter...therefore...unto Rasta
And pass among the hidden pylons of the City of the Sun
There shall we go forth and enter in
Even as do those who are favored by the god
And may we be called to partake of his offerings
In the Horizon of Horus
A pillar of smoke by day
And a pillar of fire by night
