| 1 | When one knows reality is a dream within a greater dream; |
| 2 | Knowledge of right dreaming becomes great power. |
| 3 | The Wars of knowledge did change and hide such knowledge, |
| 4 | That it became occult. |
| 5 | Once men did see that they could change and hide knowledge, |
| 6 | They saw the idea that they could change people; |
| 7 | They saw that they could control people through manipulation. |
| 8 | The birth of the idea to control people through occult, |
| 9 | Is the birth of the idea of magic: |
| 10 | Not from light, but from dark; |
| 11 | Not from wisdom, but from occult; |
| 12 | Not from love, but from hate; |
| 13 | Not from truth, but half-truth; |
| 14 | Not from honor, but from fear. |
| 15 | A man or woman who believes can do extraordinary acts; |
| 16 | A man or woman who believes can be convinced even a sunrise be magic, |
| 17 | And the rise of the Moon be a terrible omen. |
| 18 | The more ignorant men and women are made, |
| 19 | towards right knowledge and right ceremony, |
| 20 | The easier they were manipulated by the false magicians, |
| 21 | Who called themselves sorcerers. |
| 22 | Men began to consider magic as knowledge, |
| 23 | And knowledge as magic. |
| 24 | Men and women began to fear knowledge as dangerous, |
| 25 | Because the false sorcerers convinced them to fear. |
| 26 | Many laws became corrupted, |
| 27 | Many lesser men and women became leaders, |
| 28 | Not by courage and leadership, |
| 29 | But by trickery, sorcery and falsity. |
| 30 | Worst of all was when generations did die in belief, |
| 31 | Spirit was trapped by false belief in false magic. |
| 32 | It was the power of these spirits in distress, |
| 33 | That the false sorcerers then used to create stronger illusions, |
| 34 | And the appearance of great magic. |
| 35 | In truth, any man who dishonors the great dreaming, |
| 36 | Who dishonors spirit, |
| 37 | Must come to a reckoning. |
| 38 | In truth, the age of false magic and occult has come to an end. |
| 39 | Let not a man or woman speak falsely of law. |
| 40 | Let not a man or woman speak falsely of knowledge again. |
