Intima Sacra

A rare manual of esoteric devotion exploring prayer, Scripture, and the inner spiritual life in the tradition of mystical Christianity and gnosis.

Drawn from the writings of Anna Kingsford, this remarkable manual presents a vision of spiritual life that seeks to recover the hidden meaning of religious truth. Moving beyond purely literal interpretations, it explores the inner significance of Scripture, prayer, redemption, and the spiritual evolution of the soul.

Written for readers searching for a deeper expression of faith, these meditations present Christianity as a path of inner transformation grounded in intuition and spiritual insight. Themes such as inspiration, reincarnation, the fall of man, and the redemption of the soul are treated with clarity and depth in a form intended for reflection and devotion.

Kingsford's work stands at the crossroads of Christian mysticism, gnostic thought, and the nineteenth-century revival of esoteric spirituality. Both contemplative and accessible, this manual remains a unique introduction to the inner dimension of religion.

Ideal for readers interested in Christian mysticism, gnostic spirituality, and esoteric devotion.

Excerpt: "CONCERNING HOLY WRIT: All Scriptures which are the true Word of God, have a dual interpretation, the intellectual and the intuitional, the apparent and the hidden.

2. For nothing can come forth from God save that which is fruitful.

3. As is the nature of God, so is the Word of God's mouth.

4. The letter alone is barren; the spirit and the letter give life.

5. But that Scripture is the more excellent which is exceeding fruitful and brings forth abundant signification.

6. For God is able to say many things in one, as the perfect ovary contains many seeds in its chalice.

7. Therefore, there are in the Scriptures of God's Word certain writings which, as richly yielding trees, bear more abundantly than others in the self-same holy garden.

8. And one of the most excellent is the history of the generation of the heavens and the earth.

9. For therein is contained in order a genealogy, which has four heads, as a stream divided into four branches, a word exceeding rich."
