Buddhist Pattern on the Trestleboard

This is a variation on The Pattern on the Trestleboard found in both The Tarot and The True and Invisible Rosicrucian Order by Paul Foster Case.  The original can be found on B.O.T.A.'s website .

The numbered statements are associated with the sephiroth on the Tree of Life.  Recitation can be more effective when the Tree is drawn on the body in imagination as each statement is spoken.  The statement numbered zero can be associated with the Ain, the Ain Soph or the Ain Soph Aur, as you prefer.
