Through gesture,

Of hand, foot, spine, face and form.
The invisible loves the visible.

To purify the soul is to isolate her,
preventing her from attaching herself to other things
and raise her from the things here below to intelligible entities;
also to wean her from the body,
for in that case she is no longer sufficiently attached to it to be enslaved to it,
resembling a light which is not absorbed in the whirlwind of matter.
To purify the soul is to hinder her from inclining towards lower things,
or from representing their images to herself;
it means annihilating the things from which she is separated,
so that she is no longer choked.
-Plotinus

The soul cannot be transmuted without the cooperation of the Spirit,
and the Spirit illumines the soul
only to the extent of its passive preparedness
and in accordance with its manner.
The opposition between the two poles is overcome
only on the highest level, in pure Being.
Here the receptive 'substance' itself is none other than
a first, immediate, and inward determination of the Divine Spirit,
who thus descends only into that which is already his,
taking on its form and manner.
-Titus Burckhardt

and is the ruler of the Universe.
