Book Description
Wheat is not a product of the Earth for it has never been found in the wild state. It was the first-born Lords of Wisdom, Regents over the seasons and cosmic cycles, who revealed to nascent mankind the arts of agriculture. Fruits and grain, unknown to Earth, were brought by divine men and women from other worlds, for the benefit of those they ruled. The humble wheat is pivotal to man’s Inner Principles and the Laws that govern the World of Being. Isis, the Virgin-Mother of Horus, was the first to reveal to mortals the mysteries of wheat and corn. And her priests placed the sacred wheat on the breast of their ven-erable defunct. The Wheat Fields of Egypt are the Elysian Fields of Greece and the Homeric Tartarus. Extra-terrestrial wheat is the link between the occult philosophy of the old Egyp-tians, and that now taught by the cis-Himalayan Adepts. Aaru is the subjective state of post-mortem existence, where the defunct’s soul receives wheat and corn, growing therein seven cubits high. What is meant by the three cubits of the ear and the four cubits of the stalk of the wheat that grows in the Fields of Aaru? The ear of three cubits is the immortal upper triad of man and aroma of Manas (Higher Ego), represented by the triangle. The four cubits is the mortal lower tetrad (stalk or straw), represented by the square. In Egyptian philosophy the Eyes of the Lord are interchangeable: the Sun is the eye of Osiris by day; and the Moon, the eye of Osiris by night. The Wheat Fields of Aaru are an allusion to Devachan. The wheat sown and reaped by the defunct during his life is his Karma.
