Before getting into today's topic, it is important to clarify that there is a big difference between the terms "The Order (in masculine)" and "The Order (in feminine)", because the first one, refers to a primordial energy: from the Latin primus = first and genus = lineage, descent, birth, gender; whose task is to awaken or give birth to the 12 latent lineages in the DNA of the four races that populate this planet, so that they may fulfill their reason for existence. Therefore, this energy has the task of stimulating order and clarity where there is chaos and spiritual darkness.
On the other hand, "The Order (in feminine)" usually refers to an association of people who have come together for a specific purpose. Therefore, the Melkizedek order (in masculine) is not an association of people, but a power of divine origin that very few understand.
What is the Melkizedek order?
The order of Melkizedek is the energy that sustains the most ancient and ancestral priestly and royal authority that exists on the planet. It represents the divine power known as Eheye Elyon, the Most High God, revealed to Moses on Mount Sinai, and is recognized as the only one that grants its holders the power to perform an act of consecration, which consists of infusing the ceremonial bread and wine with this divine power; so that they bring spiritual inspiration and harmony, as well as health and material prosperity to those who consume them. These tangible benefits are received as long as both the giver and the receiver of these offerings are in harmony with and respect the Laws of Nature.
At the same time, this energy grants to those who exercise priesthood and kingship in His name and on His behalf, and in order to perpetuate His work, the privilege of receiving and blessing the tithe product of this bestowed harmony and prosperity, so that it may remain fruitful forever; furthermore, this energy grants to initiated priests and kings the ability to awaken priestly and royal power in other initiates through the acts of initiation and ordination.
The True Name of the Eternal God
The prophet Moses wanted to reveal the name Eheye Asher Eheye "The Eternal God" to his people, but disappointed by the lack of faith of his followers, he destroyed the first tablets of the Law and returned to Mount Sinai to work out other tablets and laws more appropriate to their level of development; then he instilled in them the worship of Yahweh and for this purpose he created the Aaronic or Levitical priesthood. Since Yahweh is a more humanized aspect of Eheye Elyon, we see human actions such as vengeance and punishment in him.
What is the act of anointing with sacred oil?
In the Melkizedek Priesthood it is called the Anointing: from the Latin ungere = to anoint, a part of the Rite of Initiation in which the Bishop anoints the new priest or king with sacred oil on certain nerve centers or power centers that need to be stimulated to activate or awaken the Nous Atom or Khristic Seed and with it the gifts of discernment and inner vision.
If the initiator wishes to awaken in the candidate innate abilities such as medicine, education, art, science, etc., the laying on of hands and even preaching and teaching by word of mouth are sufficient to activate the Khristic Seed. But the initiator can only awaken it, for its development and perfection is a personal task that each individual must undertake voluntarily.
What is the difference between the terms Khrist and Khristic Consciousness?
The word Khrist comes from the Greek word anoint and means the anointed one, the one who has awakened the gifts of discernment and inner vision. But the Khrist, or anointed one, does not refer to any initiate who has received the ritual anointing, but to those beings who are born with it already awakened, or who have succeeded in consciously awakening it for themselves during their existence. Such an achievement is traditionally called enlightenment, and these beings are known as Enlightened Ones.
What does the word West mean in occultism and esotericism?
The word West comes from the Proto-Indo-European root kad (cas, cis), which means fall, descent, decline, and is generally associated with the setting of the sun. In occultism and esotericism, the word West does not refer to a cardinal point or geographical area, but to a mental and emotional state that signifies the death, numbness, or fall of the Khristic Consciousness, as opposed to the East, which signifies its birth, awakening, or ascent.
Therefore, when we speak of The Western Initiatory Chain, we are referring to a work that seeks to rescue and awaken the initiates who are asleep in the Khristic unconsciousness. An example of this is found in the allegory of the Magi, which symbolizes the work and commitment of the Kristian Kings in protecting and preserving the initiatory work of the Melkizedek Priesthood.
For the same reason, in the Initiatic Chain, any country or geographical area where there is a religious or philosophical influence of any of the initiatory lines descending from the Kristian tradition of the Master Jesus is considered Western.
In our next article we will deal with the delicate subject of the gift of prophecy.
