BIBLE VERSES

NOSE AND NOSTRILS FOR BREATHING

Symbolic of volition and freewill, since the nose is allied with the breathing function of the lungs, by means of which the brain is enabled to act for the mind, and the control of which function implies restraint and discipline.

"All things are comprehended in this Spirit of the Ancient of the Ancient Ones, Who proceedeth from the concealed brain, into the gallery of the nostrils. The nose of the Ancient of Days is life in every part.” - The Greater Holy Assembly, Ch. X.

All things originate in the Absolute, from which the manifesting Spirit proceeds as an emanation from the hidden intelligence to proclaim the Divine Will, and forth-pour the Divine Life.
