Pasqually's Élus Coëns worked tirelessly for the restoration of man's inner divinity and eventual reintegration with God. The fraternity practised a white magic system (theurgy) to recover humanity's original, spiritual memory.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposed by Louis-Claude de Saint-Martin, Jean-Baptiste Willermoz and Jean-Jacques Du Roy d'Hauterive, The Lessons of Lyons (sometimes called \"A Course in Martinism during the 18th Century\") is a contemporary commentary on the instructions given by Pasqually, reproduced here in English for the first time.
