11. "a, A?B; under these two forms Furst gives a
great amount of valuable information, leading us
to believe that the origin of the word is to be
traced to the Aryan or Sanskrit magh or magha,
which signifies power and riches; or to an old
Persian word, mag or maga, whose meaning is
'might,' 'force,' in a religious aspect. The word
was known amongst the Phoenicians, in whose
tongue 12, magon, was 'a priest or wise man.' In
the Greek, we find that Mayoq, signifies, 'one of
the priest and wise men in Persia who interpreted
dreams,' whilst pqaq, signifies 'big or great."'

P't blood. Formed from the word Adam [P'IN].
The physical organism of Man is condensed
from Blood. It is from blood that the substance
used in the Great Work is derived-identical with
the Lunar (white) and solar (red) currents of
prana "congealed" or brought into a solid state
by gradual loss of Heat. In the Fama, the
location of the temple of the Wise men was at
Dam-Car, located in Arabia. Dam-Ca.r means
Blood of the Lamb. The temple is the initiate's
own body. The practices of initiation modify the
blood. see 5, 55, 45, 470, 68 and True and
Invisible Rosicrucian Order for commentary of
the Fama allegory.
The red water is blood. The blood's chemical
condition can be modified by intelligent control
of diet, and by the response of the ductless
glands to suggestions. This is the means in
which changes in cell-structure are brought about
to unfold our consciousness to precipitate the
Stone of the Wise. The law is no thought without
corresponding cell-activity. To think any
particular thought it is necessary that our cells
are made so that they can transmute the vital
principle into specific thought forms. Thus our
work is to control of the cell forming functions
of the body, to the end that cells may be
developed capable of responding to the
vibrations of thought and perception beyond the
ranges of ordinary human consciousness. In
summary learn how to 11iodifL the blood so that
it will build the sort of cells we need for our
interior development.
Blood was the first of the 10 plagues of E?gypt. In
