Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter VIII, § 3. Subalgebras of split semi-simple Lie algebras

(i) The subalgebras of g\mathfrak{g} stable under adh\mathfrak{h} are the vector subspaces of the form h′+gP\mathfrak{h}'+\mathfrak{g}^P, where P is a closed subset of R and h′\mathfrak{h}' is a vector subspace of h\mathfrak{h} containing hP∩(−P)\mathfrak{h}_{P\cap(-P)}.

(ii) Let h′,h′′\mathfrak{h}',\mathfrak{h}'' be vector subspaces of h\mathfrak{h} and P,QP,Q closed subsets of R, with h′⊃hP∩(−P),h′′⊂h′\mathfrak{h}'\supset \mathfrak{h}_{P\cap(-P)},\mathfrak{h}''\subset \mathfrak{h}' and Q⊂PQ\subset P. Then h′′+gQ\mathfrak{h}''+\mathfrak{g}^Q is an ideal of h′+gP\mathfrak{h}'+\mathfrak{g}^P if and only if

(P+Q)∩R⊂Q(P + Q)\cap R\subset Q and hP∩(−Q)⊂h′′⊂⋂α∈P,α∉Q\mathfrak{h}_{P\cap(-Q)}\subset \mathfrak{h}''\subset \bigcap_{\alpha\in P,\alpha \notin Q} Ker α\alpha.

Assertion (i) follows immediately from Lemmas 1 and 2. Let h′,h′′,P,Q\mathfrak{h}',\mathfrak{h}'',P,Q be as in (ii). Then

[h′+gP,h′′+gQ]=hP∩(−Q)+[h′,gQ]+[h′′,gP]+g(P+Q)∩R [\mathfrak{h}'+\mathfrak{g}^P,\mathfrak{h}''+\mathfrak{g}^Q] =\mathfrak{h}_{P\cap(-Q)}+ [\mathfrak{h}',\mathfrak{g}^Q] + [\mathfrak{h}'',\mathfrak{g}^P] +\mathfrak{g}^{(P+Q)\cap R}

Hence, h′′+gQ\mathfrak{h}''+\mathfrak{g}^Q is an ideal of h′+gP\mathfrak{h}'+\mathfrak{g}^P if and only if

hP∩(−Q)⊂h′′,[h′′,gP]⊂gQ,g(P+Q)∩R⊂gQ \mathfrak{h}_{P\cap(-Q)}\subset \mathfrak{h}'',[\mathfrak{h}'',\mathfrak{g}^P]\subset \mathfrak{g}^Q,\mathfrak{g}^{(P+Q)\cap R}\subset \mathfrak{g}^Q

This implies (ii).

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
