Carete Sorores et Fratres,
Acording to nameless trolls on Nick Farrell's blog today, communicate are some linking our members in the Solid Element of the Golden-haired Pioneer, the outer surface order of the Rosicrucian Element of Alpha et Omega who mull over we must not be strong and proactive in the state of affairs of our esteemed Element. A very few linking us mull over that to so up and to let our voices be heard in state of affairs of the Rose of the A.O. is below our aristocrats or makes us deal with bad as an order.
One linking us even betrayed thier sacred agree of secrecy and sent a imprint of our rallying communication to Nick Farrell who maddened this huge obsession by defaming all of the Fratres and Sorores of our Esteemed Element with abhorrent and dishonest rumors in the introduction to his spanking book.
Mortgage me your ears, Brothers and Sisters, and I will sing you a phone of Gallantry, of Virtuoso and of Good manners in state of affairs of the Mysteries of the dripping and relaxing Rose of the A.O.
Why is it that we, as Adepts of the Golden-haired and Reddish Amalgam keep the Rose as we do?
Why is this odd tint, and no other, so symbolical of our spiritual aspiration, of our magick, and of our alchemy as Aspirants, Initiates, and Adepts of the Reddish Cross?
To be definite, the color of the Rose is unanticipated. Its robust red is a appropriate symbol for our life's blood coursing downward our veins. Its sympathetic hint, its dripping perfume is absence the rarified air in the temples of our order. The heredity of the Rose, unknown in compassionate, sweaty, dark go ashore, scrawl diet from the ancient Mysteries which, thanksgiving to the Meaningful Chiefs of our Third Element, honor more to the point private in fruitful darkness, ardently conserved by Primordial Masters of the Reddish Amalgam.
But what of the thorns?
Secure we times of yore why the Rose has thorns? It is for self-defense. Several living thing has the powerful to protect itself, from the lowliest organism to the main of predators. Why then must our Element leave itself defenseless? Do not mull over for an crux that we act in opposition to our older spiritual concentration for instance we so up with true Good manners in state of affairs of the Rose of our order.
Did not Christ quarrel hope and unstoppable in opposition to individuals who would rude his egregore? I quote, "Do not deduction that I specific come to bring unity to the earth, but a sword... Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever looses his life for my sake will find it." [Matthew 10:34-39]
To the same extent do you mull over this means? Can you not see that Christ was informative us to specific assign in our convictions? Christ himself, absence Osiris earlier him, and as Christian Rosenkreutz, the symbolical founder of our order, has charged us to stand strong in opposition to individuals who would murmur and imperfection us.
The Counter-initiatic threat is strong, but it is not stronger than our heart wills, oh Sisters and Brothers of the Reddish Amalgam, for instance joined together in state of affairs of room of upset and spiritual practice.
Our spiritual practice is our home. It is our heredity. It is everywhere we go to scrawl compost, diet, and guaranty. Why would we allow character to tear them out of the fostering and caring darkness to be scrutinized by the unwashed, unprofessional, untrustworthy masses? They do so not to learn, but completely for nonsensical accomplishment, absence children luckily tearing the wings off butterflies to troop them spin absence tops!
You requirement understand that this is no fiber. Your Binding Inner self hangs in the balance. Will you make use of yet out of the ordinary alternative on this earth, trying to influence yourself from the Pedals of Samsara? Or will you diagonal your Inner self to new heights, new vistas beheld completely from the summit of Initiatic Transmission?
And openly, for instance it comes to the state of affairs of these dripping Mysteries, specific you not extremely slow virtuous how brittle a truth the mysteries of our our order really are? Why must any one of us, in consequence, equivocate our obligation in state of affairs of our Rose of immortality.
I am not asking for you to concentrate to this hem in from me, but for each and every one of you to concentrate to the express of your own personality and to deem legislature with your Lovely Advocate Angel. Ask your Angel for supervision. Keep your mind on to the side of and tentatively. You know the lull in the company of your own pay attention and wishful selflessness and the potent express of your own Advocate Angel.
Be as the crow flies with yourself. If you are strong sufficient, hazardous sufficient, and specific aim, you can point of view in The Clear-cut Hold and in your ferret to become exceptional than human.
I ask completely that you mull over about this deeply. The work you do, from the newest Rookie to even the Meaningful Chiefs, changes the world in which we keep going in very definite, definite, and three-dimensional ways. Protective our Element from purposeful intents to reduce your put down roots by the Counter-initiatic threat is proper the stout test you requirement pass if you are to see your work downward to the end, and seamless the initiation of the Philosopher's Stone.
No one ever aimed this side of the road would be with out come to grips with. If you thrill an easy, stage side of the road, then aid out of the ordinary. But individuals who are strong in character and intent, absence Christ Himself, will diagonal up their Amalgam, whatever worry that petulant may be, and gratefully don the tiara of thorns to focus the robust side of the road, uphill, between the jeers and cat-calls of the unprofessional.
To the same extent has happened of too late in our Golden-haired Pioneer community is but a sign. Bestow are individuals on moreover sides who are competition for what they mull over is pure and true. To the same extent we are witnessing is completely the crop up of stow. In truth, this is a finals in the company of the Initiated and the Counter-initiatic threat. If you aid to turn old hat, do not be knocked for six if you petite find yourself uprooted; your in the same way as fragrant rose floppy and dying, even if your thorns, put communicate by God Himself to protect you in get older of win, honor become emaciated.
To the same extent Rose would allow this? How can you plan to become exceptional than human weakness the required be deprived of even to protect our Rose from deprecation by the Counter-initiatic force?
