Western Inner Workings, William G. Gray

Western Inner Workings, Sangreal Sodality Series Volume 1, Sang Real,  William G. Gray

The Sangreal Sodality Series: Mr. Gray presents a home-study course in four volumes that revives the instrumentality inherent in our western tradition. The series makes available to us, in our own cultural symbolism, a way to enlightenment that we can practice on a daily basis.

Volume 1: Western Inner Workings

This book provides a practical framework for the western student's psycho-spiritual development. Each day includes a morning meditation, a mid-day invocation, evening exercises, and a sleep subject. Incorporating symbols that are "close to home, " these rituals increase consciousness in comfortable increments. 

Volume 2: The Sangreal Sacrament

In this volume, Mr. Gray explains the art of more effective worship through the proper celebration of the Sangreal Sacrament. We learn the power generated with visualization, chanting, and dramatic emphasis. Contemplation, creating a spiritual stronghold, discerning the Sangreal symbol, and understanding how the westerner fits in, all take the student to the next rung of the ladder. 

Volume 3: Concepts of Qabalah

The Qabalah implies a secret tradition, but it is really accessible to the westerner as a quest for ultimate identity. Mr. Gray shows here the value of "nothing," the purpose of the cross, the archangels, the tree of life, pillars and powers, worlds within and without, elemental energies, and pathworking.

Volume 4: Sangreal Ceremonies and Rituals

These ceremonies and rituals are new to the modern world even though many are based on worship in the ancient mysteries, with occasional similarity to rites in the Judaeo-Christian tradition. Includes: New Year's Service, Consecration of the Temple, Healing Rite, Funeral Rite, Wedding Rite, Exorcism of Evil, Rite of Last Anoint- ment, Rite of Release, and others, with an explanation of how to use each ritual.
