Major Mysteries

By Samael Aun Weor

Chapter 1: Eden

Eden⁠¹ is the ethereal world.⁠² Eden is sex itself.

The ethereal world is the abode of the sexual forces. The ethereal world is Eden.

We were driven out of Eden through the doors of sex, thus we can return to Eden only through the doors of sex.

We cannot enter into Eden through false doors; we must enter into Eden through the doors out of which we were driven.

The governor of Eden is the Lord Jehovah.⁠³ The Lord Jehovah dwells in Eden. The Lord Jehovah dwells in the ethereal world, because Eden is the ethereal world. The ethereal world is paradise.

Ether is the fifth element⁠⁴ of nature. The blue color that we see in the distant mountains is the ether of Eden. In future times, the ethereal world will become visible and tangible in the air. In those future times, the elemental gods of fire, air, water, and earth will become visible and tangible in the air for us.

Everything comes from the ether, everything returns into the ether. The ether is the orchard of Eden.

1 The symbolic paradise described by Moses where humanity was created and lived happily before falling into temptation. The Hebrew word עדן Eden literally means “pleasure, bliss.” Read Bereshit / Genesis 1-4.

2 The fourth dimension, also called the vital world.

3 Hebrew יהוה, poorly translated in the Bible as “God.”

4 The five elements of alchemy and tantra are earth, water, fire, air, and ether (space).
