What Gnostic symbolism can we find in the Notre Dame Cathedral?

Answer from the V.M. Samael Aun Weor.

Nicolás Flamel, in the NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL in Paris, in different sculptures, left the Great Work symbolized, or allegorized. The different PHASES OF THE GREAT WORK are perfectly allegorized by Nicolás Flamel, in the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris.

Very interesting is that the doors of the Notre Dame Cathedral are all full of SALAMANDERS; he chiseled on those doors, Salamanders; That's where it started, look how interesting! As if to tell us: “Gentlemen, we must work with fire, first of all!”...

And it has very beautiful sculptures, that Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, beautiful! There is one, for example, where a figure appears with a CROW, he carries a crow, a symbol of putrefaction...

Samael Aun Weor. Excerpt from the book: The Great Work.

Answer from the Magazine "The Wisdom of the Being".

It explains that Gothic cathedrals are sanctuaries of tradition, mysticism, philosophy, science and art, with doctrinal rather than ornamental purposes, because each vault, each nave, column, stained glass window or sculpture “silently invites prayer and predisposes one to meditation.” ; They show, like a great open book, the medieval wisdom hidden in allegories to avoid inquisition and distortion, as Victor Hugo stated about the cathedral of “Notre Dame” in Paris: “it is the most complete compendium of hermetic science.” in which great masters of the white lodge and alchemy met.
