Prophet? Or Witness?

[QUOTING]

Imagine that you witness a house being built from  an invisible substance; that you know for which purpose it is being built, and that you know who the inhabitants of that house will be, while we, due to our state-of-being, are unfamiliar with all these facts. You begin telling us about it while we existentially know nothing, see nothing, hear nothing of it. We would then either think you a fool or a dreamer, or, if we respect you, call you a prophet (of dualistic, not divine, calibre). Yet, what you tell us would not be a dualistic speculative prophecy , for you speak and state from reality. Just as you see these things from your reality, we do not see them from ours. From our reality, we cannot possibly see what you perceive.

A prophet as we have described him or her is not a speculator of the future but a witness of reality. Which reality do we mean here?

This reality: the New Magnetic Field of which we now emphatically speak, was once constructed over thousands of years. In the course of the ages, at the approaching of a time of Harvest, it must be animated anew, do its work and, when the harvest time has passed, it must, as it were, be drawn up again. Every spiritual school appearing in time prepares by its work, its diligence and its sacrifice, a part of that magnetic field, so that this field becomes more and more powerful, magnificent and dynamic.

In this present day of manifestation, the first brotherhood had the greatest difficulties, for it really had to do pioneer work. In order for the work to succeed, the brotherhood was formed from a great number of those sent forth (see: "The Sent Ones"), who had earlier achieved Liberation; it is the group alluded to as the Brotherhood of Shamballa. The second brotherhood was far better off, as it could continue to build upon the foundations laid by the first brotherhood and could, moreover, reckon on the help of this first pioneer brotherhood. The work went on like this till more recent times, which were marked by the appearance of Egyptian, Indian and Chinese brotherhoods, as well as the Essenes, Manicheans and other gnostics, and finally by the Druids, Cathars, the classical Rosicrucians of the seventeenth century and the Rosicrucians of modern times. Each of these groups contributed something to The Great Work. Each of them wove part of the seamless garment of Jesus Christ. Each of them prepared and cooperated with the Great Magnetic Field.

Now, if you understand something of this reality, are you then a  medium or an astrologer? Have so-called initiates  then suggested something to you? Are you then a  prophet in the negative sense? Or do you bear witness from your own scientific certainty? When you see the Seamless Garment being woven, when you observe a new magnetic purity gradually spreading its glory over the world and when you perceive that its dynamic powers are constantly increasing, is it then negatively prophetic to say: 'There will come a day when the results will reveal themselves and make themselves apparent'? When this day and that hour will be, 'nobody knows', so says the Bible, for there are always factors yet to be born. But he who understands, the seer, has this certainty: this glorious day will come! So, if you can accept these conclusions, you are placing yourself on the ground of a scientific reality.

It is therefore not prophetic speculation when the Confessio Fraternititatis says:

'One thing, o mortals, is established here by us, namely: that God has decided that before its end, the world will be presented with a stream of Truth, Light and Greatness, such as He ordained should accompany Adam in Paradise!'.

And when von Eckhartshausen repeatedly spoke of 'the re-erection of the Building' in the early 19th century, he spoke from a very deep, inner knowledge. He testified out of the revelation of the sons of God, out of the revelation of the Holy Spirit. He saw the Magnetic Field in development and knew that this Field touched him, that he was a part of it.

Each of us can now attain this same Knowledge, for the field of radiation which the ancient prophets mention, surrounds us all as a 'seamless garment'. It has now become so powerful, the glow of the New Era so intense that, when you open your microcosm to this touch, you immediately notice and experience this radiation-power, and immediately you enter the essence of both natures.

When you open your being, your microcosm, to this wondrous New Field of Life, then this radiation power will touch your heart atom, set your whole being aglow and lead you into a new process, a process of Transmutation and Transfiguration.
From The Coming New Man - Jan van Rijckenborgh

[END QUOTING]

The Gnosis cannot be learned, bequeathed or bestowed. It can only be experienced. It must first be sought. When found, it must be lived. The Path of Return, the Endura, Transmutation, Transfiguration, these forgotten realities are scoffed at by the man of the masses because the 'proof' he requires to believe in such things is lacking. The servants of the Gnosis do not offer man concrete evidence of the existence of a Divine Kingdom. How can a nature-order that is not-of-this-world be proven in this material world? We offer only Truth without proof. It is the man or woman who, depending upon their level of ability to "remember" will decide whether to grasp that slender thread of Truth and begin their walk to Freedom, or turn away dismissively, slamming the door shut on the reality of Eternal Life.
