In early Latin, praefor meant, "to say a prayer." In later Latin, the prefix prae changed to mean "foretell," and subsequently "to say beforehand."
In the superior worlds there is a Gnostic Church, the cathedral of the soul. In this cathedral, rituals are carried out Fridays and Sundays at dawn (or whenever necessary) for the good of humanity. Many devotees gather at the praefor in their astral bodies. There are also some athletes of the Jinn science who take their physical body to the praefor. Thus, all of these devotees have the fortune of receiving the bread and wine. —The Perfect Matrimony
