Bøker av Paul Sedir

Paul Sédir, pseudonym of Yvon Le Loup (1871-1926), published numerous works on Christian Mysticism and Hermeticism. He first collaborated with several esoteric movements of his time; then, following his meeting with the remarkable Christian teacher and healer Master Philippe of Lyon, he devoted himself to serving Christ. In this service he gave numerous lectures, many of which were collected and published as books. Of Sédir's meeting with Master Philippe, the prolific author Dr. Gerard Encausse (Papus), wrote: "There was in Sédir's life a solemn, decisive event that made him grasp the emptiness of secret sciences and societies and placed him forever upon the sole way of the gospel."The Kingdom of God is the fourth of five volumes by Sédir dedicated the gospels. Selections from each gospel are given, together with the author's panoramic commentaries. Far from being outdated, the gospels are shown to be eternally "current" guides to the inner mysteries of Christianity. Sédir especially stresses that reading the gospel is useless if we do not apply it practically in our daily life. He writes: "May those who read my books keep all their emotion, all their enthusiasm, for Him who is their only Master since the creation of their souls, and who will remain their Friend unto eternity."Sédir shows how the justice of God is always vanquished by his love. We are never punished, either for a while or for eternity; rather, when we disobey, we are swept along by the law of disobediences and remain enchained until the greater part of the damages has been redressed. Naturally, these atonements may take a long time, but they all come to an end. Indeed, because of Jesus, who offers us recourse through unending graces, we may even hasten that end."Sédir believed, not without reason, to have found in Master Philippe an authentic witness to spiritual reality, to Hermeticism understood in the same sense as we understand it in these Letters: as the tradition of authentic spiritual experience across the ages, which has the aspects named mysticism, gnosis, and magic."-Valentin Tomberg, Meditations on the Tarot: A Journey into Christian Hermeticism"After the death of the Austrian thinker and seer Rudolf Steiner in 1925, when the revered Bulgarian spiritual teacher Peter Deunov was asked whether great spirits who had already died ever came to his lectures, he replied that only Rudolf Steiner and Paul Sédir attended them."-Harrie Salman, Rudolf Steiner & Peter Deunov

Paul Sédir (born Yvon Le Loup; 2 January 1871 - 3 February 1926) was a French author, professor, banker, and mystic noted for his extensive work on esotericism and Christian mysticism. A student of Gérard Anaclet Vincent Encausse, better known as Papus, founder of the Martinist Order, into which Sédir was initiated. Sédir's first text, Les Miroirs Magiques (Magic Mirrors), was published in 1894 by Lucien Chamuel. This work, along with others like Les Tempéraments et la Culture psychique (1894), Les Incantations (1897), and La Médecine occulte (1900), reflects his profound knowledge in various domains of esotericism, including Kabbalah, astral light, and magical practices. In this collection of two of Sédir's works, Austin Avison introduces Paul Sédir, situating him in the exciting period of societal and cultural changes during the pre-war years in Europe. Avison then offers a translation of Sédir's Dreams: Theories-Practice-Interpretation, a short discourse of how dreams function, their art, and a list of dream interpretations, and finally his translation of Magic Letters, which offers an insight into Sédir himself not only through his own prologue, but also in the collection of letters he curated for the collection. These two texts, along with Sédir's other contributions, marked a significant chapter in the development of French esotericism in the early 20th century.

A classic text on esoteric traditional herbalism from one of the most influential herbalists of the Paris occult revival

L'azione dello Spirito sull'uomo consiste essenzialmente nel transare, dal potere all'azione, i semi dell'eternità che portiamo a nostra insaputa. Essi sono condotti al di là del conscio, dell'inconscio e del superconscio. Quanto al compimento del sacrificio, lo Spirito procede in modo simile. Esso penetra nella vittima spirituale, sia essa una delle forme della Parola o una delle forme del nostro Sé. Esso la satura, la trasforma, la trasmuta, la rigenera e la trasporta così è diventa libera e pura anche davanti al volto del Signore. L'opera stessa del Padre consiste nell'inviare perpetuamente Suo Figlio a costruire il mondo, a sostenerlo, a rimediare ai suoi difetti, a riportarlo all'armonia dell'Amore, a condurre le creature all'unità mediante gesti di fraternità opera, a inspirare l'umanità con il desiderio del Cielo e a far comprendere il sentimento della gratitudine.

La preghiera, compresa nella sua vera dignità, è un desiderio al Cielo e una conversazione con Dio. È una Grazia e una fonte di Grazie; è un seme nelle terre dell'eternità, un'opera più preziosa di tutti i capolavori, più grande del mondo, più potente, si potrebbe asserire, di Dio stesso. Non essere sorpreso e seguimi. Lascia i regni dialettici della ragione, adesso siamo nelle foreste lussureggianti dell'Amore. Silenzia l'intelligenza; apri le finestre del cuore; contempla gli infiniti campi delle colline eterne. Affinché sia possibile renderli visibili!Due movimenti si verificano nella preghiera. Il desiderio si umilia, si nobilita e si rifugia nella divina misericordia: la quale è lo stesso Cristo; la Grazia gli risponde, si sforza e si lascia divorare da esso. Questi due elementi sono la forma mistica della fede; e più il desiderio affonda nell'abisso dell'umiltà, più attrae la Grazia; più il nostro cuore è alimentato come una fiamma e con maggior forza il Verbo si sviluppa in profondità dentro di noi.

The book explains in the simplest way, but one which reaches into the ultimate depths of the human soul, all the problems dealing with modern and ancient occult philosophy and spiritual searching, as well as social and political conundrums of this and probably also future periods. Translated from the french by the noted hermeticist and mystic Mouni Sadhu.
