Labyrinth of the White Lotus or White Stone of Chartres Cathedral. An older Sufi/Egyptian manuscript can be found with this precise, exact pattern, predating the building of Chartres. The Knights Templar, builders of the great Gothic Cathedrals, learned these masonry techniques and sacred geometry from the Gnostic temple builders in the far East. The symbolism holds the same significance as the Ancient Egyptian and Buddhist imagery of the individual rising out of the lotus flower. This is why the Bible mentions the white stone in Revelation 2:17, what Jesus calls the cornerstone, upon which all temples are built, for the ‘Kingdom of God’ is within. - REGIII,32,RAM, ‘Modern Alchemist’

“The alchemists projected the inner event into an outer figure, so for them the inner friend appeared in the form of the “Stone,” of which the Tractatus aureus : “Understand, ye sons of the wise, what this exceeding precious Stone crieth out to you: Protect me and I will protect thee. Give me what is mine that I may help thee.” To this a scholiast adds: “The seeker after truth hears both the Stone and the Philosopher speaking as if out of one mouth.”” - Carl G.

“A carved jasper (British Museum OA.9545, 3rd century CE ?) probably worn as an amulet. The side shown on the left contains the name Abrasax, and the image of a rooster-headed deity with snake-legs, often associated with the deity of that name. Such amulets were in the past called “gnostic gems” by scholars...”
