trianglebook.iwarp.com Find out about the Dragon lineage, Deep Time, Dragon Precession and 2012, long hidden secrets and the nature of Immortality. The Dragon is the symbolic superstar of Saint Germain's secret grimoire. Find out why and what it means. St. Germain had The Secret, a legacy of Manly Palmer Hall and his Philosophical Research Society (PRS). It was the supreme treasure of his vault. It now resides in the Getty Research Institute, likewise deep in their library vaults. Revealed here are unseen photos of the sigils, emblems and ciphers of the book.
This master adept, called the wisest in Europe, reserved his greatest gift, the two books he wrote, for his wisest companions. St. Germaine recorded his version of The Secret to health, wealth and long life in his legendary TRIANGLE BOOK, and apparently made copies for his closest circle of initiates. But, perhaps even then, the entire secret was never entrusted to a single individual, as the copies of the book are not identical, containing different illustrations.
We might deduce that to properly work the formulae in the book, one required the Emblems and Sigils it described. Is this why Manly Palmer Hall possessed two copies of the book, each with different glyphs? It begs the point, were there other copies with even more illustrations required to initiate the whole current -- to attain magical immortality?
The TRIANGLE BOOK (or Triangular Book) differs from many alchemical texts in its language, being more of a ritual invocation than a recipe. Naturally, St. Germain made marvelous plant and herbal medicines (spagyrics) but this book is not about that but about the qualitative Universal Medicine. Meditation is required for all spiritual pursuits, including alchemy, qabalah and magic.
What we know is that both St. Germain and Manly Palmer Hall lived to a ripe old age and remained mentally vibrant, each a great adept of his own era. Can this obscure arcane text -- one of the rarest occult manuscripts -- be the secret of their longevity? The book is alleged to be Egyptian in origin. MPH, himself, can be seen with the book in the frontpiece portrait in his FREEMASONRY OF THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS.
Here, for possibly the first time ever, the text translation appears with the withheld 5 illustrations of the two copies. Even in the originals, it is difficult to make out the precise glyphs of the sigils, but arguably their magical potency is intact. Sigils and emblems often contain hidden meanings, since they are a visual shorthand which can be "read" for their symbolism. Carl Jung used this method as the traditional basis of his alchemically inspired psychology.

Manly P Hall of the Philosophical Research Society described the Triangular Book of Le Comte Saint Germain as the ‘rarest of occult manuscripts’. He kept his exciting and highly prized manuscripts in a vault. After the death of Manly P Hall, the Getty Centre in Los Angeles purchased two of the triangular manuscripts, MS209 and MS210. Simple substitution deciphers these manuscripts to ritual text written in French. The two manuscripts are described as follows in The Ron Hogart Catalogue of the Philosophical Research Society together with ‘Alchemy -A Comprehensive Bibliography of the Manly Palmer Hall Collection, Including Related Material on Rosicrucianism and the Writings of Jacob Boehme’ edited by Ron. Charles Hogart, introduction by Manly Hall [1986]

[Blue and gold ink on various leaves of ruled parchment.

It is a copy made from one of the magical texts in the possession of St. Germain by the owner's permission. A number of such copies were executed for the members of his Masonic lodge in Paris, and the following manuscript, as different in style as it is, may be one of the copies too. It is unclear in both cases whether the Comte St. Germain wrote these magical formulae or owned a copy of an ancient text. This manuscript was made for Antoine Louis Moret, a French emigre to America active in Masonry and in politics.

There remain a number of remarkable contemporary testimonies and unsolved puzzles. As for hard evidence, there is none. St. Germain has been described as the greatest of the European adepts. His prodigious knowledge of history and philosophy was often commented upon in his day. In a letter to Frederick II, Voltaire described St. Germain as "the man who does not die." This manuscript bears an attribution on its face not independently verified in any source.

Manly Palmer Hall and The Triangular Book
This winged dragon is the symbolic superstar of The Triangle Book. In The Book of Lambspring, it represents the Anima Mundi, or Soul of the World, which is the sum total of planetary existence -- the holographic blueprint on which form is based, the informational level or primal source of being - Zero Point. It is said that medicine providing the gift of youth can be made from its venom.
PROVENANCE: It is not known for sure if St. Germain actually wrote these rites or adapted them from an older magical text in his possession. This manuscript was offered at the Hauser Sale in 1933 (item #527). The key to the cypher in an accompanying bound volume was provided with the lot. A typed French transcription and English translation are to be found in the bound volume, inserted in the slip-case. Another French translation is in the bound volume accompanying the other copy of this text, provided by the bookseller.
MS 209 was bought from Frank Hollings, a London antiquary, after 1933. It came from the occult library of Mme. Barbe, who had gotten it from the bibliographer Stanislaus de Guaita, who bought it from an auction of the library of Jules Favre. It is a copy made from one of the magical texts in the possession of St. Germain by the owner's permission. A number of such copies were executed for the members of his Masonic lodge in Paris, and the following manuscript (210), as different in style as it is, may be one of the copies too. It is unclear in both cases whether the Comte St. Germain wrote these magical formulae or owned a copy of an ancient text. This manuscript was made for Antoine Louis Moret, a French emigre to America active in Masonry and politics.
The litany of St. Germain's miracles--his eternal youthfulness, his incomparable painting of pigments made from the colors magically pulled out of gemstones, his endless wealth, his invisibility, his brilliant sonatas, and inspired violin performances, the flaws removed from the King's diamonds, metals transmuted, languages spoken, friends among the long-dead -- these and many more tales, and a few unflattering references in the shards of eighteenth century diplomacy constitute his whole legend. He is said to have whispered words of unheeded advice to Marie Antoinette. His image remains the centerpiece of newly fabricated mythologies, often of Rosicrucian, Masonic and New Age origin. There remain a number of remarkable contemporary testimonies and unsolved puzzles. As for hard evidence, there is none.
St. Germain has been described as the greatest of European adepts. His prodigious knowledge of history and philosophy was often commented on in his day. In a letter to Frederick II, Voltaire described St. Germain as "the man who never dies."
Both MS 209 and 210 now reside in the Getty Research library, having been sold in the estate auction of Manly Palmer Hall by his lawyers to satisfy debts.
MS 209 has 31 leaves, 4 are blank. 21.0 x 24.4 x 24.4 (triangular)
MS 210 has 24 triangular leaves, 23.7 x 23.7 x 23.5
Mid 18th c. French, blue and gold ink on ruled parchment. Text in cipher with two magical illustrations in gilt and several other colors of ink. MS 209 has 3 illustrations in gilt and other colors of ink. French portions of text in both are in script.

CIRCUMPUNCT Magic Circle - The prototype of the Eye in the Triangle, a circle with a dot in the middle is a symbol of the sun, the alchemical gold and the sphere of Tiphareth (the heart center) in the Tree of Life and the hydrogen atom. Mirroring the Vedic Bindu point, it encodes the superstructure of the Zodiacal year, of time and space and is the key to the cyclic geometry of the Precession of the Equinoxes. It mirrors the Self or Oneness with the cosmos. The magic circle mirrors the Gnostic circle of the heavens as a portal into sacred time, merging individual and collective consciousness. "As Above, So Below." It is this sacred geometry that encodes the Treasure of The Triangular Book and the secret passed down from Egypt and preserved in Asia.
"The small concentric circle is the place which
you shall take during these operations. The other circle which is below
is the place to be occupied by your Levite"

The wyvern is regarded as a type of dragon although they are generally not characterized as breathing flame. Depictions often include two legs and two wings. Sometimes there are eagle's claws on the wingtips. The rest of its appearance can vary, such as appearing with a tail spade or with a serpent-like tail. In medieval alchemy, the wyvern was used to represent matter in its basest state.
Carl G. Jung's Mysterium Coniunctions: Dragon is personification of Sulphur and is by far the male element. Since the dragon is said to impregnate himself by swallowing his tail, then the tail is the male organ and the mouth is the female organ. The dragon consumes its entire body into his head; thus, partaking of his most dangerous and evil nature turning it into the inner fire of Mercury. This evil dragon nature which sulphur shares is frequently called the "dragon's head" (caput dragonis), which is a "most pernicious poison," a poisonous vapor breathed out by the flying dragon. However,the "winged dragon" that stands for quicksilver becomes a poison-breathing monster only after it unites with the "wingless dragon" which corresponds to sulphur. In psychological terms these two dragons represent the opposites; the winged dragon tries to prevent the wingless dragon from flying. They are always in confrontation until the wingless dragon flies, symbolizing the conquering of an obstacle, or obstacles, preventing total individualization. In other words, the winged dragon represents personal obstacles that must be overcome to insure a more-perfect being; thus, leading to the saying: "You conquer the dragon or he will conquer you." The winged dragon (quicksilver) is female. The winged dragon is a symbol that unites heaven with earth, a pictogram of "As Above; So Below." It is the Intelligence of Light and Life. In yoga the dragon energy is kundalini, the serpent power. Its wisdom is the secret of primal energy hidden in us all. The Adept is the reawakened Dragon who is the Universal Medicine, and living Stone. If you possess alchemical gold, nothing else is worth anything because it is psychic completion, peace of mind. Jung called it the self -- the light trapped in matter, the luminae de luminae, the light of light, the lux natura, the light drawn out of nature and condensed into a fixed form which then becomes the universal panacea.

The Triangular Book Robert Word, trans. The Holy Magic revealed to Moses discovered within an Egyptian monument and preciously preserved in |
Manly P. Hall Commentary from SAGES & SEERS on the Triangle Book
Provenance
This manuscript passed from the collection of Moret to te famous library of occult books and manuscripts formed by the late Mme. Barbe of Paris. In the interval it had belonged to Stanislaus de Guaita, French transcendentalist, who purchased it at the sale of books belonging to Jules Favre, the French Statesman and bibliophile. Moret was one of the heads of Masonry in Europe and America. He came to America and settled here for some time. The manuscript, therefore, is of greatest importance in the literature of early American Masonry.
During the middle years of the 19th century, a school of transcendentalists came into being in France under the able leadersip of Abbe Louis Constant, better known by is pseudonym Eliphas Levi. He was a member of the Fratres Lucis, and was devoted to the mysteries of the Holy Cabala. Levi gethered around himself a brilliant group of European intellectuals who devoted much time to searching out available information on St.-Germain. Most of the rarer books and manuscripts passed through their hands, and in some cases copies were made. These are almost as scarce as the originals.
