Ain Soph Aur
"Ten wordly elements, ten corner stones. All emerged from these ten. Seeker, lift your eyes, search your past and you shall find.
He who knows your course holds Wisdom and will share it when asked.
Another has gained uncountable riches, yet has Compassion in his heart.
Your heart, in turn, does not harbor Love, but it is with one who knows mercy, one able to love.
Once blind, now plunge into your mind, your memory. Dark and dangerous is the path from enslavement to the promised Kingdom.
A goddess thrice over — Virgin, Mother, Old Woman. Three faces, three graces: Understanding, Power, Glory. Achievable through sacrifice and prayer.
The Foundation lies in the deep. Be not tempted by the errant fires. Defeat death and you will be rewarded.
Victory is gained only by fighting its sentry.
He who leads through labyrinthine mysteries will offer you the Crown of consciousness.
At your path's end, Awareness will be yours, you will comprehend. What is locked will open before you.
The ten names are: Wisdom — Chocc'mah, Understanding — Veen'ah, Love — Kezath, Compassion — Tipperath, Power — Ghe'vrath, Victory — Neh'tza, Glory — 'Oth, Foundation — Y'esath, Kingdom — Maal'kad, Crown — Keth'aar."
