A Way Out of Our Mess

Dear Readers,

We can take a break from the negativity about the IOC for a while...I think plenty of people have got the message. Now we can see what will be done to reform the IOC. But that can wait.

Over the next sessions, I will be talking about a way out of the global mess we've made of economics, and the National disaster we have in my beloved US in politics and related areas, such as health care, the economy, etc.

Since, among other paths, I am a Christian (the members of my family tree have been Christian for going on 1900-2000 years now, just as we have been on this North American continent for nearly 500 years) I will be drawing on ancient Judeo-Christian sources (as well as others) to talk about how we can and must restructure things to survive.

These solutions can also be found embedded in all world spiritualities, and in the approaches of the Primordial Tradition, as spoken of in its mainifestations such as Rosicrucianism, Masonry and others who serve The Great Fellowship of Light.

Thus I am not advocating any kind of religious domination. The separation of Church (Temple, Mosque, and any other kind of religion) and State is a great Gift of The Spirit to us, one of the ongoing lessons coming from The One Source of All. However, we need to look back at the deepest traditions of our own Faiths and Paths about these issues, to discover, like Dorothy, that we have everything we need to solve these problems in our own back yards. Practical ideals which can be instantiated today.

For the Christian approach, I recommend reading an out-of-print book, Social Thought edited by Peter C. Phan. Get it, read it, and we will be talking about its ideas from the early days of Christianity, and the Christian Roman Empire that flourished for 1100 years ... I hope everyone has by now seen through the 18th Century lie about the Fall of the Roman Empire... It fell not in the 5th Century, but on Tuesday May 29, 1453. More on that later...

For those from other Traditions, please add parallels from your ancient sources, and how The Spirit is leading your Path in new ways today.

So, read up, and discover a Tradition the right-wing Televangelists and other conservative leaders don't want you you to know about.

Have Fun!
