July 11, 2002

I received a letter from Soror Julie Scott, Grand Master of the Rosicrucian Order in America, with headquarters at San Jose, CA, at Rosicrucian Park, informing me I have reached, "The Formal End Of The Monographs", after 32 years of study. I will still be a member of the Rosicrucian Order, AMORC and receive the "Forum", the "Digest", "Provisional Treatise", etc. Actually, I Am Going To "Start The Studies Over From The Start"! And I Am looking forward to it! I Doubt I Will Finish Them This Time; But I Will Try!

I Will Forever Be A "Student!" I Will Forever Be A "Walking Question Mark!"

"Jesus"
"The Rose"

This Is A Favorite Painting Of The Master Jesus By Dr. Harvy Spencer Lewis, 1st Imperator Of The Rosicrucian Order, A.M.O.R.C. In The Americas! Did You Know He Also Painted The Cathedral Used On The "Liber 777" Pamphlet, which describes how to Attune With The "Celestial Sanctum"; Which By The Way Was Originally called, "The Cathedral Of The Soul"! He also wrote under several pseudonyms, one was "Royle Thurston".

Hey! I Won These Awards!



"Hymn To Aton"


Thy dawn, O Ra, opens the new horizon,
And every realm that you hast made to live
is conquered by thy Love, as joyous Day
Follows thy footsteps in delightful Peace.

Dawn in the East again! The lands awake,
And men leap from their slumber with a song;
They bathe their bodies, clothe them with fresh garments,
And lift their hands in happy adoration.

For thou art all that lives, the seed of men,
Thy son within his mothers womb who knows
The comfort of thy presence near, the babe
To whom thou givest words and growing wisdom;

And lo, I find thee also in my heart,
I, Khu en Aton, find thee and adore.
O thou, whose dawn is life, whose setting, death,
In the great dawn, then lift up me, thy son....Pharoah Akhnaton, c. 1300 B.C.


(Akhnaton Was The First Man To Believe In "One God", At Least The First Egyptian Man. He Of Course Thought, The "Sun" Was God. It Is Obvious He Is Speaking Of The Sun In His Poem.)

(I Have A Book Titled, "Son Of The Sun" (About Akhnaton Of Course.) The Original Title Was, "The Son Of God"; We In Our Ignorance Could Not Allow That.) (Have We Learned "Anything"?)




"FRIENDSHIP"



Your Friend's are your needs answered. They are your field which you sow with Love and reap with thanksgiving. And they are your board and your fireside. For you come to them with your hunger, and you seek them for peace.

When your Friend's speak their mind you fear not the "nay" in your own mind, nor do you withhold the "ay." And when they are silent your heart ceases not to listen to their heart; For without words, in Friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed. When you part from your Friend's, you grieve not; for that which you Love most in them may be clearer in their absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain. And let there be no purpose in Friendship save the deepening of the spirit. For Love that seeks aught but the disclosure of it's own mystery is not Love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught.

And let your best be for your Friend's, If they must know the ebb of your tide, let them know it's flood also. For what are your Friend's that you should seek them with hours to kill? Seek them always with hours to Live. For it is their's to fill your need, but not your emptiness. And in the sweetness of Friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds it's morning and is refreshed..... KAHLIL GIBRAN, The Prophet, on "Friendship"




Frater Wayne, A New Found Friend from Australia, Sent Me These Two Quotes; I intend To Use Them Often!


"May The Light Of God Stand Between Us And Harm In All The Dark Places We Walk!".....Anonymous Master, Egypt, Circa. 1880 B.C.

"It Takes An Educated Mind To Be Able To Entertain A Thought Without Accepting It!".....Frater Wayne attributes the quote to Socrates.




"If one will begin with certainties, one will end in doubts; however, if one will content to begin with doubts, one will end in certainties.".....Sir Francis Bacon, Baron of Verulam




"True Philosophy Is To Acquire A Knowledge Of The Creator, Through Knowledge Of The Created World.".....Sir Francis Bacon, Baron Of Verulam




"My task in this world is to lead the mind of man by a natural path to the Supernatural things which of right belong to him, but which he has lost all conception, in part by his degredation, in part by the frequently false instruction of his teachers.".....Louis Claude de Saint Martin

"I have desired to do good but I have not desired to make noise, because I have felt that noise did no good, and that good made no noise.".....Louis Claude de Saint Martin




"The Sermon On The Mount" was in one of my lessons June 26, 2006; I wanted to display it prominently on my "Sayings" Page.



"THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT"



Blessed are the poor in spitit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek; for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness; for they shall be filled.

Blessed are the merciful; for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart; for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers; for they shall be called the children of God.

Blessed are they which are persecuted for rightiousness' sake; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven; for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Matthew 5:3-12





"This is a serious affair, this existence of ours. It's important that the real feelings in society, and the life of the heart be affirmed.".....Leonard Cohen

(I Cannot Begin To Tell You How Much I Love His Song, "JOAN OF ARC"!.....CBC-L)

"Joan of Arc"

Now the flames they followed Joan of Arc as she came riding through the dark; no moon to keep her armor bright, no man to get her through this very smokey night. She said, "I'm tired of the war, I want the kind of work I had before, a wedding dress, or something white, to wear upon my swollen appetite."

La La La, La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, la la la la la.

"Well, I am glad to hear you talk this way, you know I've watched you riding every day and something in me yearns to win such a cold and lonesome heroine". "And who are you?" She sternly spoke to the one beneath the smoke. "Why I'm fire", he replied, "And I love your solitude, and I love your pride".

La La La, La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, la la la la la.

"Then fire, make your body cold, I'm going to give you mine to hold". Saying this she climbed inside to be his one, to be his only bride. And deep into his fiery heart he took the dust of Joan of Arc, and high above the wedding guest he hung the ashes of her wedding dress.

La La La, La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, la la la la la.

It was deep into his fiery heart he took the dust of Joan of Arc, and then she clearly understood if he was fire, oh then she must be wood. "I saw her wince, I saw her cry, I saw the glory in her eye. Myself I long for Love and Light, but must it come so cruel, and oh so bright!?"

La La La, La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, La La La La La, la la la la la......Leonard Cohen





"When they came to arrest the Jews, I did not say anything, because I was not Jewish.

When they came to arrest the Communist, I did not say anything, because I was not Communist.

When they came to arrest the Homosexuals, I did not say anything, because I was not Homosexual.

When they came to arrest Me, nobody was left to speak for Me!".....Martin Niemoller, 1892-1984


Martin Niemoller, 1892-1984 Was One Of The Germans That Risked Their Life In The Resistance Against Hitler. (Thank You For This Bit Of Information Soror Britta.)




"There is one thing stronger than all the armies of the world and that is an idea whose time has come.".....Victor Hugo




"All Truth passes through three stages:

First, it is ridiculed.

Second, it is violently opposed.

Third, it is accepted as being self evident.".....Arthur Schopenhauer





"You must be the change you wish to see in the world.".....Gandhi




"When You Entertain Evil Thoughts Towards Others, Then There Is No Joy In Your Heart. But If You Develop Kindness, Patience And Understanding, The Whole Atmosphere Changes.".....The Dalai Lama




"Because We Are In A Spiral, We Always Feel As If We And The World Would Move On A Circle".....Teilhard de Chardin




"The aim of evolution . . . is to generate increasingly complex forms of consciousness which ultimately converge upon an Omega point which fuses and consumes them within itself".....Teilhard de Chardin




"THE WANDERER"



"...he scanned the laws of light

Amid the roar of torrents, where they send

From hollow clefts up to the cleaner air

A cloud of mist, that smitten by the sun

Varies its rainbow hues. But vainly thus,

And vainly by all other means, he strove

To mitigate the fever of his heart."

.....William Wordsworth in "The Wanderer"





Stop this day and night with me and you shall possess the origin of all poems,

You shall possess the good of the earth and sun (there are millions of suns left),

You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, nor look through the

eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books,

You shall not look through my eyes either, nor take things from me,

You shall listen to all sides and filter them from yourself.

......Walt Whitman





I Call It:

"The Law Of The Universe".

"FOR EVERY ACTION THERE IS A LIKE REACTION!".....CBC-L



Around us lies the world. Pass out into it with hatred in your heart and, by the operation of a law as immutable as that of gravity, you will encounter strife, bitterness and shame. Pass out into the same world with LOVE in your heart, LOVE everything you meet, no matter how degraded it may appear, or how far removed from the possibility of LOVE, let your LOVE rest upon all, even as the sun touches everything with the infinite charity of it's beams, and all the world will blossom like a rose. What need has the world but LOVE? If LOVE were a living thing in the heart of every person, what use were the laws written in statute books?

Heaven's only law is LOVE!.....Claude Houghton





Nothing that I can do will change the structure of the universe, but maybe, by raising my voice, I can help in the greatest of all causes, goodwill among men and Peace On Earth!.....Albert Einstein



The Most Beautiful And Most Profound Experience Is...The Mystical!.....Albert Einstein



You can never detach yourself from your own enveloping AURA, neither in body nor in soul. Christ taught this when HE said: "Let Your Light So Shine Before Men That They May See Your Good Works And Glorify Your Father Which Is In Heaven." "Your" light, remember! That word "light" is not used here as a figure of speech but as a statement of fact! A positive "light" surrounds you, it is exhaled an produced by your physical and moral being, and those among us that have cultivated their inner organs of vision see it before they see you. It can be of the purest radiance, equally it can be a mere nebulous film, but whatever the moral and physical condition of the man or woman concerned, it is always shown in the AURA which each separate individual expresses for himself or herself!.....Marie Corelli, 1855 - 1924





"VIRTUES"



In Childhood, Learn Good Manners.

In Youth, Learn to Control Your Passions.

In Middle Age, Learn To Be Just.

In Old Age, Learn To Be Of Wise Counsel;

Die Without Regret!....Apollo's Sanctuary In Delphi





The final decision as to what the future of a society shall be depends not on how near it's organization is to perfection, but on the degree of worthiness in it's individual members.... Civilization can only revive when there shall come into being in a number of individuals a new tone of mind independent of the one prevalent among the crowd and in opposition to it, a tone of mind which will gradually win over the collective one, and in the end determine it's character....Albert Schweitzer



"600 Years Before Christ"


The Ethiopians say their Gods are snubnosed and blackskinned and the Thracians say theirs are blue-eyed and red-haired! If only oxen and horses had hands and wanted to draw with their hands, or to make the works of art that men make, then horses would draw the figures of their Gods like horses, and oxen like oxen, and would make their bodies on the model of their own!....XENOPHANES



Can Any Of You, For All Your Worrying, Add A Single Moment To Your Life? If Worry Cannot Change The Smallest Thing, Then Why Be Anxious About The Rest....The Gospel Q



Education Does Not Necessarily Make For Profundity of Thought! Intelligence, Observation, Meditation And Reason Do!.....Validivar
(I Know Him As Ralph M. Lewis, The Beloved Former Imperator Of The Rosicrucian Order, A.M.O.R.C.)

An Admission Of Ignorance Is The First Step Toward Acquiring Knowledge!.....Validivar

Nature Must Be Approached with Expectancy, Hoping To Learn And Presuming To Know!.....Validivar

It Is Not What Men Believe That Matters, But what Actions Emerge From Their Beliefs!.....Validivar

Philosophy is the struggle to know.
Science is the search for knowledge.
Technology is the reduction of knowledge to application.

The first is the intellectual satisfaction.
The second is explorative creativity.
The third is the adaption to self!.....Validivar

Spirituality is a personal belief being engendered, on the one hand, by an inate sense of righteousness and on the other hand, by the belief in a trancendent infinite power of goodness!.....Validivar

The Cosmic is universal and infinite in it's manifestation, but it is individual and finite in human experience and conception!.....Validivar

The moral motivation for goodness on the part of man is both biological and phychological. It is the desire for harmony of one's own being with his surroundings!.....Validivar

We Live By What We Know, Not By What May Be So!.....Validivar

While there is life, there is hope. Life is the greatest gift we have. With life we have that consciousness and ability to realize the magnitude of the Cosmic!.....Validivar

How can a man be free who does not think for himself? After all, it is only one who thinks, who makes a true choice, all others are bound to the influence of suggestion, whether it be subtle, or direct!.....Validivar

It Is Not How Long You Live But The Satisfaction You Derive From Life That Makes It Worthwhile!.....Validivar

Consciousness Is The Motion Of The Force Of Life - As Form Is The Motion Of Matter!.....Validivar

A democratic nation is one in which Individuals Create a political instrument to preserve the just exercise of their seperate powers!.....Validivar



The Greater The Number Of Things One Possesses, The Greater Is His Responsibility For Them!.....Validivar

(This Quote Reminds Me Of "The Little Prince" And The Fox, And The Rose, Even The Volcano's!!)

I have made a list of the things I have "Tamed" (YES, "Mr. Hound" is there!) in the back of "The Little Prince", please read it and you will understand! It will change your life!



"YOUTH"


To Youth The Loss Of An Unfruitful Day,
Is But As The Washing From The Shore Of A Grain Of Sand;
There Are Many More!.....Validivar




Whatsoever thou resolvest to do, do it quickly! Defer not till the evening what the morning may accomplish!.....Unto Thee I Grant

True Wisdom Is Less Presuming Than Folly. The Wise Man Doubteth Often, And Changth His Mind; The Fool Is Obstinate And Doubteth Not; He Knoweth All Things, But His Own Ignorance!.....Unto Thee I Grant

In ALL your desires let "Reason" go before you, and do not set your hopes beyond the bounds of "Probability"; so shall success attend all your undertakings, and your heart will not be vexed with disappointments!.....Unto Thee I Grant

The Noblest Employment Of The Mind Of Man Is The Study Of The Works Of His CREATOR!.....Unto Thee I Grant




A Master


In The Art Of Living
Draws NO Distinction Between

His Work And His Play
His Labor And His Leisure,
His Mind And His Body, His Education And His Recreation.

He Hardly Knows The Difference!

He Simply Pursues
His Vision Of Excellence
To Whatever He Is Doing,
And Leaves To Others To Determine
Whether He Is Working Or Playing!

To Himself,
He Always Seems To Be Doing Both!!

A Rosicrucian (Non Sectarian)

(I Always Manage To Get This, Or A Part Of This, In Any Resume I Send Out!)




Be At War With Your Vices, At Peace With Your Neighbors, And Let Every Year Find You A Better Person!.....Benjamin Franklin



To Know And Yet To Think We Do Not Know Is The Highest Attainment; Not To Know And Yet To Think We Do Know Is A Disease!.....-Tao - Teh - King (Part II)



Cultivation To The Mind Is As Necessary As Food To The Body!.....Cicero



The Short Period Of Life Is Long Enough For Living Well And Honorably!.....Cicero



Ones Liberties Are The Liberties Of Everyone, His Source Is A Part Of The United Power Of All Beings!.....Dr. Harvey Spencer Lewis (1st Imperator Of The Rosicrucian Order, In The Americas, A.M.O.R.C.)



If You Would Contract, First, You Must Expand. If You Would Weaken, You Must First Strengthen. If You Would Take, You Must First Give. This Is Called The Dawn Of Intelligence!.....Lao Tzu (300 B.C.)



The earth is really a living body, pulsating with the energetic life as is everything related to it....If I watch the rippling waters of a lake when the sun is smiling on it, I recognize a rhythm related to the beat of my own pulse!.....Corinne L. Baker



The most beautiful thing we may leave to those who will follow is none other than a pyramid of ideals which, by themselves, will suffice in lifting humanity out of the apparent chaos in which it now finds itself!.....Christian Bernard, FRC (Present Imperator Of The Rosicrucian Order, A.M.O.R.C.)

"What does the Great Spirit say to you?"


The God of my heart comes to me on the wings of a bird, and speaks to me through the wind in the trees... The voice is ever flowing as it speaks of Truth and Peace...

The Great Spirit speaks to us all through the Gentleness of the deer, the Power of the horse, the Grace of the swan, the Meaningful song of the frogs, the Sacred Spiral Dance of the grouse, the Strength of the hawk, and the Understanding of the trees... If you look at each individually you would realize one is incomplete without the other... You cannot have Understanding without Gentleness, Strength without meaning, or a Sacred Dance without Power, and Grace...Everything is connected in the Circle of Life...

"Do you listen to what the Great Spirit says to you?"

"Mother Earth is crying", what do you the human being intend to do about it??? What would you say to the deer if it stopped and looked you in the eye??? As the mother stands with her fawn she stops to look at you... In her eyes you read Fear, Hope, Gentleness, and Understanding... She speaks in a way that only the purest of Heart would Understand... She begins by saying, " I am afraid, not for me but for my baby... If you take me now how will it survive??? I hope you can see that I am not harming you and wish to understand why you wish to harm me... We are hungry and my baby must eat... As a mother you want to protect your baby... I know what you must do, but please not right now... I understand the Law of Nature... I will give up my life if you let my baby live... I forgive you... I also Understand you have a family that must survive... If you would listen with your heart you would realize that we are the same and that we are one..."

As you move on you hear the stomping of hooves... There before you stands a horse... It's massive form blocking your path... Every muscle in its body is tense... It whinnies and bucks and jumps in front of you...Its black coat is almost blue as it shines in the sunlight... Its tail flaps carelessly around and its mane blows freely in the breeze... Its eyes have a far away look... It speaks to you..." You take too much upon yourself... Come run with me... Free yourself of all your worries and come to see your inward Power, which you possess... As we gallop along you will see life as I do... It passes you by so quickly and there is no going back... Will you be pleased with everything you have left behind??? It is time for you to take the reins in your own life and gallop into the world of Peace and Love... Become that and you shall KNOW true Power... Do this and you will realize that we are the same and that we are one..."

As you continue you come to a pond... You notice a swan and how it carries itself with such Grace... Its neck is held perfectly, with its head held high, and its eyes level with your own... "Greetings to you... Have you come to speak to me??? I swim in the water of Love and Peace... I carry myself with Grace and Dignity, do you??? I see people that walk around with their eyes glued to the ground, why is that??? Why do you do that??? How would others view you, would they say you carry yourself with Grace??? I speak with Love, and swim with Hope, that one day this world will be filled with Peace and Grace... If you stop to hear me you will realize that we are the same and that we are one..."

The swan disappears and you hear the meaningful song of the frogs...Their song is all about Light, Life, and Love... It's about how everything is connected in the Circle of Life... The words carry much Meaning... " It has been so long since anyone has heard our song..." The frog surfaces and hops over to look you in the eye... "Our song is full of Meaning do you Understand??? As you look back over your life does it have any Meaning to you??? Listen to our song and you will realize that we are the same and that we are one..."

You slowly walk away from the pond and continue on your path..." May I have this dance??? " You turn around to see the grouse doing its Sacred Dance... It Spirals with ease and it comes to look you in the eye... " When I Dance it's for hope that someday we will all listen to one another... Each time I Dance I pray that each turn will bring more Love into this world... I have been on a downward Spiral as well as an upward Spiral... Which Spiral are you at now??? Which ever you are at is where you are meant to be... But for the time being lets Dance with each other in perfect Harmony... If we do this you will realize that we are the same and that we are one..."

You leave the grouse and continue on your journey... Far above you hear a cry... You look up in time to see a hawk soaring above... As it comes and lands before you, you notice the Strength as it looks you in the eye... "You keep yourself grounded and don't let yourself fly free... You don't listen to the message sent to you through the Earth Mother, why is that??? Are you afraid of your own strength??? What you have been given is a special gift; you should not fear it... The Earth Mother is reaching out to you for help and has sent me to guide you... Come soar with me and see the Beauty and Strength in everything...If you do this you will realize that we are the same and that we are one..."

You then continue to your final destination... Finally you come to rest against the tree... As you slowly lower yourself down to rest against it, you come to an Understanding... It asks you, "If you understood what the others have tried to tell you...'' You look up at it and its limbs slowly come down to surround and protect you...It speaks to you..."You seem as if you are always on the run... Be still like me and you will Understand much... Silently I stand and watch over the land... Patiently I wait for those who are willing to Listen and Understand...You my dear friend have come far and learned much on your journey... You have shared a moment of Gentleness with the deer, a moment of Power with the horse, you glided through your experience with the swan with such Grace, you read such a Meaning into what the frogs spoke of, and the Strength you learned from the hawk got you here to me, where I think you now Understand what you must do in this Life... Listen to what I have said and you will realize that we are the same and that we are one..."

You slowly stand up and thank the Great Spirit (whichever name you give yours) for showing you a different path... A path of Light, Life and Love... A place where man and beast are one... You now Understand what was being said to you...Take a moment to meditate on it.... And see what else comes to you through the voice of the Great Spirit.....Soror Molly Rene Davis
