Greetings and welcome back as we continue our study of Albert Pike’s “Morals and Dogma”.       We are continuing on with chapter 26 where this time Pike is reminding us of the shortcomings of language when it come to explaining what is spiritual, and along with the ineptitude of language is the incapacity of the human psyche to depose the idea of the abstract ideas of what is spiritual without comparisons to what is physical.       We are not really shifting from the study of gnostic ideologies as we studied earlier in this chapter, rather the frailty of language is ofyen discussed in gnostic circles as a means of the demiurge to continue to keep mankind in the darkness of ignorance.     But, on the other side of the coin, we do know that words are powerful, building up and tearning down confidence or starting and stopping human destruction caused by war.      We know as we study mysticism that there are certain powers contained in words, we use magical verbage in ritual, verba
