80 INNER VISION.
To sucu as have faith in the things underlying outer sense, who realize that we are floating in a sea of mysteries, that the reality of all things lies deeply hidden behind a thick veil, which only the strong and patient soul can raise or penetrate; to those especially who have provided themselves during the last twelve years with good and perfect instrumentalties; and to those who have demonstrated their importance in the deeper researches of magnetic science and philosophy; and to such only, is this book and the subjoined code of rules for their use presented. And these rules are exact copies —rendered into English—of those in use by all oriental seers, with the exception of the extracts from De Novalis and the Masters, both of which I copy from my first work on internal vision, long since out of print.
I. To have impatience (in these things) will delay, or totally prevent, success. But unto the true seeking soul cometh ever the real light of the divine magnetic power of true magic. But it cometh in its fulness only to the spirit that is self-possessed and calm. Remember what the Grand Master, himself a genius rare, and, therefore, a true Seer, says: ‘“‘ The true Rosicrucian, the acolyte, the adept, reaches forth for the infinite, in Power and Goodness, which are the keys that unlock the gates of glory; and he sees, hears, knows, and healeth the mental, physical, social, moral, and domestic ills of humankind, by means of his goodness and his mighty secret, whereof but few in an age are naturally possessed, and still fewer attain to, for want of WILL and paTInncre. For only the children of the empyrean, by nature or adoption, are admitted to the treasure-house of the underlying, and overfiowing real. Such, only, have the true medical and supernal inspiration, and inhale the diviner breathofGod . . . Whosoever hath a strong will, and purity of purpose, may, if they elect, unbar the doors of mystery, enter her wide and strange domain, and revel in knowledge denied to baser souls.”
De Novalis says: “The fortuitous is not unfathomable; it, too, hath a regularity of its own. He or she that hath a right sense for the fortuitous, hath already the signet and seal of a royal power, naturally to know and use, not all mystery, but much that lies very, very far beyond the ken of mortals who are not thus endowed by nature, or have not grown thereto by experience and choice. Such persons can readily determine truly that which to others less gifted, or with less COURAGE, WILL, PERSISTENCE, PATIENCE, and quietude, must forever remain unknown. For one with these qualities necessarily commands both information and obedience from the viewless intelligences and subordinate powers and agencies of the universe. Such can seek destiny for others, in her own halls; solve her riddles by her own laws; and read, as in an open book, the future, — the things that shall befall an inquirer in all that pertaineth to body, soul, health, affections, and possessions; and, still casting forward and upward the soul’s keen glance, can discern the final result and summing up of being, and all by means of the phasoul and phantorama, as revealed to
