THE BORNLESS RITE

(E.S.S.G) 5 = 6

I Consecration of the Enochian Temple

II Bornless Rite

1. Introduction

The Bornless Rite consists of three ritual levels. The first level is the Qabbalistic Pyramid of
Power for the Qabbalistic World of Yetzirah. The assumption is that the Higher Self (the
Bornless One) resides in the Yetziratic level. Within this vortex, the Celebrant erects his own
formula to establish the second level which is the Gate of Light. This structure should represent
the Celebrant's personal spiritual directive. The final level is performed in the center of the circle
wherein the Celebrant invokes the Bornless One, using the classical English trans- lation as
found in the rituals of the Golden Dawn.

The Invocation of the Bornless One establishes a permanent manifested link to one's higher
self. Therefore, it is necessary for the Celebrant to fast, say mass, undergo rigorous purifications
and other ascetic practices to facilitate the process. The Celebrant may also need to change the
masculine pronouns in the ritual to feminine if her gender requires it.

2. Element Pyramid of Yetzirah

The Celebrant proceeds to the Eastern Watchtower and therein bows, gives salute, he intones:
“QeDeM - The Light of the East!”​ The Celebrant draws the Invoking Pentagram of Water and
intones the letter ​Aleph​, projecting a golden energy into the pentagram. The Celebrant then
draws above the element pentagram, the Pentagram of Spirit Feminine and fuses it to the
element pentagram with an invoking spiral. The Celebrant says:

The Eastern quadrant is the abode of the Sun of the true Spirit, the Lord of Light
and Illumination! Let this great spirit be invoked and prepare us for entry into the
sacred world of the East.

Aleph - the activated intelligence is the spiritual mind which causes the generation
of all meaning. When the random experiences of consciousness are ordered and
marked with values of related significance, thus occurs the rational understanding
of conscious phenomenon. The spiritual mind which gives reality structure and
order has received its knowledge and inspiration from creative intelligence.

The Celebrant proceeds to the Southern Watchtower and therein bows, gives salute, he
intones: ​“DaROM - The Flowing Warmth of the South!” The Celebrant draws the Invoking
Pentagram of Water and intones the letter ​Lamed​, projecting a scarlet energy into the
pentagram. The Celebrant then draws above the element pentagram, the Pentagram of Spirit
Feminine and fuses it to the element pentagram with an invoking spiral. The Celebrant says:

The Southern quadrant is the abode of the heat of the desert and the spice of the
blessed oasis. However oppressive is the heat and the killing drought, there is the
cool refuge from the hot wasteland wherein we seek solace and peace.

Lamed - the energies of flux and reflux have become conditioned into the
structure of consciousness and act as the laws which govern the process of
formation. For every action engenders an equal and opposed reaction, thus
establishing the way of harmony and the processes which cause the expression
of consciousness to evolve or devolve. Prior to this implementation, all of spiritual
reality was either in expansion or in stasis. This is the first limitation of formation.
The Celebrant proceeds to the Western Watchtower and there in bows, gives salute, he intones:
“MA'aRaB - The Abode of Darkness of the West!” The Celebrant draws the Invoking
Pentagram of Water and intones the letter ​Heh​, projecting azure energy into the pentagram.
The Celebrant then draws above the element pentagram, the Pentagram of Spirit Feminine and
fuses it to the element pentagram with an invoking spiral. The Celebrant says:

The Western quadrant is the abode of night and the Gate to the realms of the
dead and the inner worlds of spirit. The Sun sets and thus begins its passage
through the corridors of the damned and the demonic. Therein, the Shield of the
Name of God is our protection against all harm!

Heh - the creation of meaning establishes a primary nexus wherein

the physical archetype realizes its primary form. In this fashion is the individual
self formulated. The spiritual mind has perceived an image and this becomes the
embodiment or Mantle of Glory of the self. Through this awareness of self occurs
the process of self-identification and the giving of a name which seals the
process. This is the second limitation of formulation to which the wise say, “Know
Thyself!”

The Celebrant proceeds to the Northern Watchtower and there in bows, gives salute, he
intones: ​“M'ZaRIM - The Scattering Winds of the North!” The Celebrant draws the Invoking
Pentagram of Water and intones the letter ​Mim​, projecting a green energy into the pentagram.
The Celebrant then draws above the element pentagram, the Pentagram of Spirit Feminine and
fuses it to the element pentagram with an invoking spiral. The Celebrant says:

The Northern quadrant is the abode of the winds which winnow and separate the
chaff from the seed. Therefore is the power of judgement and discernment which
can perceive the truth amidst falsehood. The winds of change mark the process
wherein the land is in transformation and the soul encounters its test!

Mim - the various symbolic formulations have established a pattern of

interrelationships which represents both the order and meaning of reality as well
as the accumulated meaning of individual entities. Also, the law of action and
reaction guide the dynamic process of interrelationships. Imprinted upon this
 extensive pattern is the overall purpose and goal of the creative intelligence. This
purpose is obscured by the magnitude of the structure, but is ultimately
pervading.

The Celebrant proceeds to the Center of the Circle and therein bows, and gives salute. The
celebrant intones: ​“The Center is the Secret!” The Celebrant draws the Invoking Pentagram of
Water to the Infrapoint and intones the letter ​Lamed​, projecting a violet energy into the
Pentagram. The Celebrant then draws in the Ultrapoint the Pentagram of Spirit Feminine and
intones the letter ​Aleph​, projecting a brilliant energy into it. He fuses the two pentagrams with
an invoking spiral, thus creating the central pylon. The Celebrant says:

The source and origin of all manifestation exists in the center, the core of the
confluence of all realities. The magician as God stands in the center of the
universe, contemplating all creation. For the name of the center is the primordial
name of all names which in its essence knows no distinctions nor any differences
- it is the name of Unity itself! Thus the magician invokes through the ineffable
name, 'El', and all manifestation follows.

The Celebrant then proceeds to draw the four watchtowers to the Ultra-point in the order, North,
West, South and East, using the sword. He proceeds to the center of the circle and faces South,
saying the following:

Aleph, Lamed, Heh, Mim -- Elohim! -- The beloved spirit behold, the image of
Yetzirah, a world of the Holy Qabbalah! Therein shall you find the formulation of
spirit into the consciousness of form. For thus is the generation of meaning and
the awareness of spiritual values. For the spirit has become a body both
beauteous and filled with love. Therein is beheld the compassion of judgement
and execution of divine retribution. This is the god of the creation of individual
consciousness and that to whom the masses pray and give sacrifice. Yet the spirit
of consciousness is aware of a higher source and translates the inspiration which
it receives from that great transcendence into a powerful creed which leads the
individual to true self knowledge. Yet herein are also the limitations which contain
the world of individual consciousness. The process of self identification stratifies
the entity of awareness and holds it in the body of spiritual formation.
3. Perform the “Gate of Transformation” ritual.

4. The Invocation of the Bornless One

The Celebrant, still standing in the Center of the Circle, performs the Qabalistic Cross, drawing
the energy from the Ultra-point down to his/her crown chakra. The Celebrant says.

Thee I invoke the Bornless One.

Thee that didst create the earth and the heavens.

Thee that didst create the night and the day.

Thee that didst create the darkness and the light.

Thou art Osorronophris, whom no man hath seen at any time.

Thou art Iabas. Thou art Iapos.

Thou hast distinguished between the just and the unjust.

Thou didst make the female and the male.

Thou didst produce the seed and the fruit.

Thou didst form men to love one another and also to hate one another.

I am (sacramental name and magickal motto) of the Order of Lux et Tenebris in the
inner, the Egregora Sancta Stella Gnostica in the outer, thy prophet unto whom
thou didst commit thy mysteries, the ceremonies of the magick of light and
darkness.

Thou didst produce the moist and the dry and that which nourisheth all created
things. Hear me thou. For I am the angel of Paprhro Osoronophris. This is thy true
name, handed down to the prophets of the Sun.
The Celebrant, facing the Southeast, makes the sign of the Rose Cross and vibrates the name
Yeheshua,​ then draws it toward him/herself to connect with the heart chakra.

The voice of my Higher Self said unto me, "Let me enter the path of darkness, and
peradventure there shall I find the light. I am the only being in an abyss of
darkness; from an abyss of darkness came I forth ere my birth, from the silence of
a primal sleep. And the voice of ages answered unto my soul: ' I am he who
formulates in darkness, the light that shineth in darkness, yet the darkness
comprehendeth it not."

The Celebrant, turns to the Southwest, makes the sign of the Rose Cross and vibrates the
name ​Yeheshua​, then draws it toward him/herself to connect with the heart charkra.

Hear me: Ar; Thiao; Rheibet; Atheleberseth; A; Blatha; Ebeue; Phi; Thitisoe; Ib;
Thiao. Hear me, and make all spirits subject unto me, so that every spirit of the
firmament and of the aether, upon the earth and under the earth, on dry land and
in the water, of whirling air, and of rushing fire, and every spell and scourge of
God the vast one may be obedient unto me.

The Celebrant, turns to the Northwest, makes the sign of the Rose Cross and vibrates the name
Yeheshua,​ then draws it toward him/herself to connect with the heart chakra.

I invoke thee, the terrible and invisible God who dwelleth in the void place of the
spirit. Arogogorobrao. Sothou. Modorio. Phalarthao. Doo. Ape. The Bornless One.
Hear me, and make all spirits subject unto me, so that every spirit of the firmament
and of the aether, upon the earth and under the earth, on dry land and in the
water, of whirling air, and of rushing fire, and every spell and scourge of God the
vast one may be obedient unto me.

The Celebrant, turns to the Northeast, makes the sign of the Rose Cross and vibrates the name
Yeheshua,​ then draws it toward him/herself to connect with the heart chakra.
 Hear me: Roubriao. Mariodam. Balbnabaoth. Assalonai. Aphnaio. I. Thoteit.
Abrasar. Acoou. Ischure, Mighty and Bornless One. Hear me, and make all spirits
subject unto me, so that every spirit of the firmament and of the aether, upon the
earth and under the earth, on dry land and in the water, of whirling air, and of
rushing fire, and every spell and scourge of God the vast one may be obedient
unto me.

The Celebrant, turns to the Center, makes the sign of the Rose Cross in the Infra Point and
vibrates the name ​Yeheshua,​ then draws it toward him/herself to connect with the heart chakra.

Hear me: Ma. Barraio. Ioel. Kortha. Athorebalo. Abraoth. Hear me, and make all
spirits subject unto me, so that every spirit of the firmament and of the aether,
upon the earth and under the earth, on dry land and in the water, of whirling air,
and of rushing fire, and every spell and scourge of God the vast one may be
obedient unto me.

The Celebrant, turns to the East, makes a large invoking spiral and vibrates the name
Yeheshua,​ then draws it toward him/herself to connect with the heart chakra.

Hear me: Ma. Aoth. Abaoth. Basum. Isak. Sabaoth. Isa! This is the Lord of the
Gods. This is the Lord of the universe. This is he whom the winds fear. This is he,
who having made voice by his commandment is he, who of all things, King, Ruler
and Helper.

Hear me, and make all spirits subject unto me, so that every spirit of the firmament
and of the Aether, upon the earth and under the earth, on dry land and in the
water, of whirling air, and of rushing fire, and every spell and scourge of God the
vast one may be obedient unto me.

The Celebrant, turns to the Center, makes the sign of the Hexagram in the Ultra Point and
vibrates the name ​Protonoia​, then draws it toward him/herself to connect with the crown
charkra.
 Hear me: Ieou. Pur. Iou. Iaeo. Abrasar. Sabrium. Do. Uu.adonai. Ede. Edu. Angelos
to Theon. Anlala Lai. Gaia. Ape. Diathana Thorun.

He Comes in the Power of the Light.

He Comes in the Light of Wisdom.

He Comes in the Mercy of the Light.

The Light Hath Healing in its Wings.

Let Heart and Mind Be as One in the Spirit!

The Celebrant then faces the East and draws the energy of the circle up into his/her body until it
reaches the heart chakra. Then, while assuming the body posture of the Tau Cross, the
Celebrant focuses upon the fiery Hexagram drawn in the Ultra Point and draws the power from
the heart chakra up to the crown and beyond, culminating in the Lotus 7 breath and releasing
everything into the Ultra-point. When the resulting transe state has cleared somewhat, the
Celebrant continues.

Out of the darkness, let that light arise. Before I was blind, but now I see. I am the
dweller in the invisible, the reconciler with the ineffable. I am he, the bornless
spirit, having sight in the feet. Strong, and the immortal fire. I am he, the truth. I am
he who hate that evil should be wrought in the world. I am he that lighteneth and
thundereth. I am he, from whom is the shower of the life of earth. I am he, whose
mouth ever flameth. I am he, the begetter and manifester unto the light. I am he,
the grace of the world. The heart girt with a serpent is my name. I am Protonoia.
Hear me, and make all spirits subject unto me, so that every spirit of the firmament
and of the aether, upon the earth and under the earth, on dry land and in the water,
of whirling air, and of rushing fire, and every spell and scourge of God the vast
one may be obedient unto me. Iao. Sabao. Such are the words.

The Celebrant performs the Qabalistic Cross for a final time. The Celebrant then may sit in
meditation in the center of the circle and and enjoy the ambience of the resultant invocation.
5. Closing and Sealing the Gate

The Celebrant says:

Be my mind open to the spirit of the absolute. Be my heart a center for the light
and the love which blesses the infinite realms. Be my body a temple for the eternal
flame of the highest spiritual purpose. So mote it be.

The Celebrant then stands and turns to the West, leaving the center of the circle and turns
again to face the East, standing in the West. The Celebrant performs the Closing Threshold
gesture and then seals the three gate nodes, beginning with the Northwest, to the East and
finishing in the Southwest.

The Celebrant then seals the four Watchtowers, the four Angles and the Ultra Point and Infra
Point. The ritual is completed.
