Links In The Chain


The Gnosis is with us always. Even in the darkest periods of mankind's many epochs, this Divine Flame is kept alive on the earth-plane by those whose job it is to maintain this Link with the Divine Kingdom.

Every major earth-cycle follows the same pattern. It begins with a purified astral atmosphere, which humanity can take advantage of to begin walking the transfiguristic path. It is during these early stages that Divine Helpers are sent to earth to assist mankind in walking the Path. All ancient cultures have "myths" that tell of a time when "the gods walked amongst men".

As a cycle progresses to its nadir, humanity becomes less and less spiritual. Mankind, through wrong-thinking, begins to create aeons which gradually grow in power and influence. These aeons eventually begin to rule the minds of men. The Divine Helpers withdraw, partially because the astral atmosphere of the earth is no longer hospitable to beings of an incredibly high vibration and partly because of the realization that it is now time for man to learn from another Teacher: the Effects that will result from his erroneous Causes.

The descent continues. Man stumbles blindly in the dark. The Path of Return is forgotten and the Gnosis becomes an anathema in this nature-order. Perversion and error dominate the hearts and minds of men. Anything that attempts to alert man to the doctrine of the two nature-orders or to the possibility of permanent escape from the earth-planes (Liberation) is hunted down and summarily destroyed, with prejudice.

It is during these times that the caretakers of the Gnosis go underground. The mystery schools and gnostic brotherhoods pull up the drawbridge, shutting their doors to the profane, like the petals of a flower closing at twilight.

This is not an act of abandonment. Those few who continue to seek The Way will always be found and will always be helped. This is simply about preservation of the earthly outposts of the Gnosis so that seeking mankind will have a place to turn, even when times have reached a point of Godlessnes.

Predictably, man's persistent error eventually pollutes the astral atmosphere so much that the chances for microcosms to locate and walk the Path of Return greatly diminishes. It is then that a cosmic revolution takes place, a cyclic cleansing of this nature-order that returns the subtle spheres of the earth-plane to a pristine state. At some point during the cleansing, a harvest is gathered of all those who have followed the Good Law. These ones represent the Remnant who are always moved to a protected location prior to any cataclyms. The refection-sphere is purified and a new cycle begins. The Divine Teachers are able to return once more and assist the Remnant in their development towards godhood.

Age after age, the pattern never changes

During man's recent history, the past 12,500 years or so, the following groups or divine personalities have made their appearance on the world stage and devoted their efforts to maintaining the earthly link to the Chain of Universal Brotherhoods. Some of the names:

Krishna
Lao Tzu
Akhenaton
The Druids
The Buddha
The Essenes
Jesus, The Christ
The Manicheans
The Bogomils
The Waldenses
The Cathars
The Templars
The Classical Rosicrucians

There were many, many more. Be they Persian, Hindu, Chinese, Mayan, Aztec or Native American, these brotherhoods existed in all countries, at all times. God does not forsake the work of His hands.
