The Story of Anna Kingsford and Edward Maitland and of the new Gospel of Interpretation
Maitland, Edward
Kingsford, Anna Bonus, 1846-1888; Mysticism
Then from the midst of the Divine Duality, the Only Begotten of God
came forth:
Adonai, the Word, the Voice invisible.
He was in the beginning, and by Him were all things discovered.
Without Him was not anything made which is visible.
For He is the Manifestor, and in Him was the life of the world.
God the nameless hath not revealed God, but Adonai hath revealed
God from the beginning.
He is the presentation of Elohim, and by Him the Gods are made
manifest.
He is the third aspect of the Divine Triad:
Co-equal with the Spirit and the heavenly deep.
For except by three in one, the Spirits of the Invisible Light
could not have been made manifest.
But now is the prism perfect, and the generation of the Gods
discovered in their order.
Adonai dissolves and resumes; in His two hands are the dual powers
of all things.
He is of His Father the Spirit, and of His Mother the great deep.
Having the potency of both in Himself, and the power of things
material.
Yet being Himself invisible, for He is the cause, and not the
effect.
He is the Manifestor, and not that which is manifest.
That which is manifest is the Divine Substance[28].
The reason for the suppression by the translators of the Bible of its
numerous affirmations of the Divine Duality, saving only those of
Genesis i. 26, 27, was in due time disclosed to us; as also was the
extent of the loss to man through the elimination of the feminine
principle from his conception of Original Being, and the consequent
perversion of the doctrine of the Trinity, and therein of the true
nature of Existence, in both its aspects, Creation and Redemption.
FOOTNOTES:
[18] In 1875. (Life A.K. Vol. I. p. 73.)
[19] The book was "England and Islam: or The Counsel of Caiaphas," which
was published in 1877.
[20] This vision occurred in London in November, 1876. It was merely
referred to in the previous editions of this book, but I have inserted
it here in full from "The Life of A.K." Vol. I. pp. 115-117. It is also
given in "England and Islam," pp. 438-442. S.H.H.
[21] p. 41.

[23] It is probable that E.M. intended this statement to apply only to
the N.T., or to the Gospels, because, before February, 1874, when he
first visited A.K. at her house (p. 2), she had received in sleep "an
exposition of the Story of the Fall, exhibiting it as a parable having a
significance purely spiritual" and E.M. certainty regarded the Biblical
Story of the Fall as "Scripture." S.H.H.
