THE DOCTRINE OF THE THIRD TERM OF THE TRINITY

The following articla appeared in La Flèche No. 7, November 15, 1931. It is unsigned, but was clearly written by Naglowska.

The Divinity is triple: the Father, the Son, the Mother.

The Father is the beginning point of the fall, from the Origin toward the plane of division and multiplicity.

The Son is nostalgia and desire for universal redemption, combatted by the Adversary inherent to His nature: Satan.

The Mother is the return toward the Origin, after the definitive combat and the reconciliation in the Son of his two opposing natures: the Christic nature and the satanic nature.

The Son detaches himself from the Father and divides himself in two: He is double.

The Mother proceeds from the Father and from the Son, and contains both of them: She is triple.

Only the Father is homogeneous.

The three aspects of the Trinity—the Father, the Son, the Mother—are successive in time, but simultaneous in their Eternal Presence in the regions not involved with the plane of division and multiplicity.

The succession—Father, Son, Mother—is justified thus:

The Father is the Male principle, which accomplishes the act of the negation of the Unique Spirit; it is love oriented toward the flesh.

The Son is the principle of the second negation, that which in the flesh rejects the flesh; it is love oriented toward the unreal, the love of the infertile heart. The Son is neither Male nor Female: he is on this side of the two divine sexes. That is why he is beyond sexual beings.

The Mother is the reestablishment of the Male principle in the inverse sense: She affirms the Unique Spirit, and her love, starting from the flesh, is oriented toward spiritual realization. She consoles and glorifies the Son, for She makes his dream of sublime purity complete in multiple life. The Mother appeases the combat between Christ and Satan, leading these two contrary wills on the same path of unique ascension. The Mother proceeds from the Father and from the Son, and she is successive to them in the temporal subordination, because negation is not converted into affirmation except by means of negation.

When the work of the Mother is accomplished, that of the Father begins again, for the three aspects of the Divine Trinity repeat themselves endlessly.

In human history the three divine phases are reflected in the form of three types of religions, which constantly succeed each other, determining three types of civilizations, which we find in the cycle—or triangle—to which we belong in these three religious-civilizations: the Hebrew religion, the Christic religion, and the religion of the Third Term, which is being announced at present.

The symbol of the Hebraic religion—a Religion of the Father—is the rod hidden in the ark. Its ethic protects the reproduction of the species.

The symbol of the Christic religion—a Religion of the Son—is, on the one hand, the cross, and, on the other, the sword: the renunciation of the sexual act and scorn for life. But in the shadow of the Christ, the worshippers of Satan deify woman’s womb in secret orgies, which maintain the dynamism of the march forward. The white Mass of the transsubstantiation is thus attenuated by the black Mass of the redynamization of the flesh, without which it would become anemic.

The symbol of the third religion—the Religion of the Mother—is the arrow launched toward the sky. The golden Mass, which it will establish, will glorify the real love of the flesh, in order to extract from the latter the renewing and ascendant spirit, which will make all things new upon the earth.

Blessed are those who shall assist at this Mass.
