English term or phrase: "put on the Light" or "Chrism"
Jesus taught several sacraments, and the Gospel of Philip states that these were the holy baptism, the holier atonement and the "holy of the holies", the sacrament of the bridal chamber, in which participants "put on the Light" or "Chrism" and return
to Oneness. Androgyny is also a central part of other religions, where deities in Taoist, Hindu and Buddhist art are often shown as part male and part female.

Oui, le chrême est une huile mais c'est l'huile consacrée et qui unit au divin. Et puis, la construction de la phrase met les deux en équivalence, sinon à quoi rattacher chrême?
