E-Book Overview

For more than 100 years secret magical manuscripts from the Order of the Golden Dawn's inner order of adepts Rosae Rubeae et Aureae have been unseen by most students of the esoteric. This includes the Golden Dawn Alchemical teachings, Secret Teachings of the Zelator Grade and the important Caduceus paper. These have either been gathering dust on some collector's shelves, or have been worked by those who have continued the Order's work. So secret were these documents, Israel Regardie was unaware of them and subsequently many of the modern Orders of the Hermetic Order of Golden Dawn who were dependent on his encyclopaedic 'Golden Dawn' for their teaching have left out much of this work. However, the papers contained in this book provide the much needed keys to understand the Golden Dawn system in its entirety. However, just as the Golden Dawn was not just intellectual information gathered under one heading but contained oral instruction to make the system come alive, so this material came with extensive traditions that make it useful to the student. For the first time, Golden Dawn authority Pat Zalewski, who was trained by the Inner Order adepts of the Golden Dawn, reveals the key to this material.

That such a few can have a key impact on the development of the spiritual lives of thousands is a testament to their work, and the genius behind the Golden Dawn tradition itself. One of the main players behind this resurrection is Pat Zalewski, who was one the first to show to the public that the Golden Dawn is a complete system of magical training. Unlike many who have come to the Golden Dawn system through the books of Israel Regardie or Aleister Crowley, Pat trained under some important magicians from the New Zealand Golden Dawn temple Whare Ra. Not only did this Golden Dawn temple remain vibrant after all the others collapsed, it offered its students some of the best esoteric training ever seen. When it did finally die, in the late 1970'
