<strong>of</strong> the old pagan religions <strong>of</strong> the Orient, that the so-called "neo-Platonic" school <strong>of</strong><br />

Alexandria had adopted as the basis for their theory <strong>of</strong> illumination, called<br />

{emanation}.<br />

This doctrine <strong>of</strong> {emanation} became the basis for all <strong>of</strong> the heresies<br />

against the Catholic Church from the very beginning <strong>of</strong> Christianity until today.<br />

The principal early authors were Simon the Magician, Irenee <strong>of</strong> Lyon, Hyppolyte<br />

<strong>of</strong> Rome, Tertullien <strong>of</strong> Carthage, Clement <strong>of</strong> Alexandria, and his disciple Origene.<br />

The doctrine <strong>of</strong> {emanation} established that all beings had come out, and<br />

continue to come out <strong>of</strong> God, without diminishing Him, or without weakening<br />

Him, precisely in the manner in which the rays <strong>of</strong> the Sun emanate from that star,<br />

without reducing its power, a variation on the doctrine <strong>of</strong> the Sun god Apollo.<br />

However<br />

, the more the emanated creatures were moving away from the divine source <strong>of</strong><br />

light, the more they became imperfect and corrupt. The closer to matter, the more<br />

evil they were becoming. Consequently, the more those creatures desired to<br />

become {reintegrated} into their original status <strong>of</strong> perfection, what the founder <strong>of</strong><br />

Martinism, Martinez de Pasqually, called {Reintegration <strong>of</strong> Beings in their<br />

Original Virtues, Powers and Qualities}, the more they had to combat against the<br />

evil forces.<br />

The most ancient form <strong>of</strong> such an emanation doctrine comes from Zoroastre,<br />

in Persia, who substituted the divine principle by the material power <strong>of</strong> the stars<br />

from which emanated good and evil, spirit and matter, which were incarnated<br />

respectively by the power <strong>of</strong> light, {Ormuzd}, and the power <strong>of</strong> darkness,<br />

{Ahriman}. The same doctrine, with the same universal characteristic <strong>of</strong><br />

emanation, are found in certain traditional Hindu sects, in the Jewish Cabala, in<br />

the ancient Egyptian mythology <strong>of</strong> Hermes Trismegiste, as well as the Neo-<br />

Platonist school <strong>of</strong> Plotinus, and similar Gnostics. The hermetic writings <strong>of</strong><br />

Hermes Trismegiste, for example, were given as revelations, not discoveries, and<br />

they presupposed an intimate personal relationship to God, which then established<br />

the initiate into a sort <strong>of</strong> privileged position with respect to the world. If ever<br />

someone asks you if you have a "personal relationship to God", beware, you are<br />

being challenged to become a Gnostic.<br />
