Happy St. John's Day and Summer Solsticetide!

I would like to give you a preview of what will be posted on this blog for the future. I encourage all spiritual warriors to contribute.

The Master Jesus told us, "Humans were not made for the Sabbath, the Sabbath was made for humans" (Mark 2:27). This is the basic principle we must use in analysing the incredible mess we have made of our planet.

And our Sainted U.S. President, one of the People of the Book, said, "the government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the Earth" (Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln.)

Therefore we can derive the following postulates:

Humans were not made for the Ecomomy, the Economy was made BY humans and must be made for the benefit of all humans, not just the rich and powerful.

Governmental structures are made by humans for humans. These are human artifacts just as much as clay pots and computers and jets.

How we treat our EcoSystem is up to us. We have no a priori dogmas.

God has made us creators in the Divine Image. We The People can create the reality we live in. This blog is dedicated to bringing about the Earthly Paradise envisioned in the literature of our planet, and in particular, the Rosicrucian Paradise signaled in The New Atlantis, Star Trek, and other visionary literature.

Do not be dissuaded by the children of the Father of Lies who is the Enemy of Human Nature, St. Ignatius Loyola tells us--Fox News, the current leaders of the Republican Party in the U.S.A., Fundamentalists of all religions, dogmatists of any stripe--the Novus Ordo Seclorum is coming, and we are its heralds.

The Blessed Teilhard de Chardin saw clealy that we are evolving toward the Omega Point. The Naysayers, fundamentalists, "Tea Party Members" (who disgrace the noble name of the Masonic and Rosicrucian revolutionaries of our US history), are dead wrong: we must assist in the dawning of the New Age. Those who resist the irresistable and inevitable movement of the Holy Spirit into the Age of the Spirit fortold by the Blesses Joachim of Fiore will simply be brought forward as those who try to stand in the way of a steamroller.

In the New Age, Initiates of every Tradition will recognize and welcome Initiates of all Traditions. We are all seeking the Wisdom of the Heart, the core where the Spirit dwells within us. Divine Wisdom is our Bride, there can be no mistake.

Welcome the Age of the Spirit!

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!
