I found another very interesting book online: De Porta Primordii. Tractatus de Virtute Occulta or On the Gates to the Beginning: A Treatise on Hidden Power. This is a treatise (previously unpublished, according to the preface) by Frater Johannus de Altenburg from 1457. The work is extremely powerful energetically and quite complex. I am 100% sure it's an authentic text. I didn’t even bother checking the Latin – I’m getting information about the reality of this author and the revelation itself.

I’m attaching the publication file here for anyone who might find it interesting as well.

Here’s a loose summary: it’s essentially a mystical-philosophical treatise about a certain Power that traces back to the Beginning and exists everywhere, including within ourselves. To attain it (its might and strength), one must pass through special Gates—spiritual ones. But it's not easy: first, you must cleanse yourself of worldly thoughts, then go through a kind of spiritual transformation. There is one ritual, however, that can help open these gates (for those whose intentions are pure). But you need to know a special Word. When you speak it, the Gates will open (assuming your mind is clear). Then, you will gain the Power (but be extremely careful with it! It can turn against you if your thoughts become darkened). This is my own loose summary!

This is a truly fascinating treatise. It’s amazing how progressive it is in terms of spiritual practices (including meditation, purification of thoughts, and a blend of Gnosticism with spiritual alchemy, which is quite uplifting). And all of this is from 1457! Incidentally, that year was unique: on September 9, 1457, there was one of the largest lunar eclipses in history.
