A Treasury of Coën Texts — Complete Edition in Two Volumes
For the first time in English, this landmark release presents the true and complete Manuscrit d’Alger (Algiers Manuscript, 1772)the most important surviving source of the sacred teachings of the Élus Coën tradition.
The Élus Coëns were spiritual initiates and theurgic practitioners engaged in disciplined mystical operations and ceremonial rites aimed at restoring humanity’s divine state. Their work centered on sacred ritual, angelic mediation, and the reintegration of the soul with the Divine Source.
These original rites instruct the initiate in:
Entering into conscious relationship with angelic intelligences
Ceremonial preparation and ritual purification
Theurgic operations of spiritual elevation
Mystical sacrifice and divine reintegration
Scholars and practitioners alike will recognize the strong influence of the The Book of Abramelin tradition not only in the pursuit of communion with the Holy Guardian Angel, but also in the detailed ceremonial structures and operational discipline.
