Neter

R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz
THE SYMBOL in our modern languages there is no word that designates the exact meaning of Symbol, as it was conceived by the Ancients. This is why I should like to replace the word symbol with the word Medu-Neter, which conveys the "signs that bear the Neters" ("Neter" signifying the Principle or the Idea in the Platonic sense.) [R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz, The Temple in Man, page 32]

"In fact, each of these individual members of the vegetable kingdom belongs to a genus, and this genus to a family; and these families belong to an original "lineage." At the head of this lineage is a Neter, a "Principle" synthesizing all the characteristics of this lineage; its number, its rhythm, its classification in the general harmony." [R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz, The Temple in Man, page 63]

"The principle of the Neter is associated with the cubit." [R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz, The Temple in Man, page 64]
