The Ancient Mystical Order Rosae Crucis, also known as the Rosicrucian Order, AMORC, is a worldwide cultural, educational, and philosophical organization that is perpetuating the profound and practical teachings of the Rosicrucians. All being, all reality, no matter what its nature or kind, its form or experience, comprises one unity. God is unknowable in His pure, absolute essence. No human consciousness can embrace God. His manifestations, however, can be known and thus to a degree men can also comprehend God.

I met this elephant and right away, I was like in a bubble with him, and really transported. He explained that he and all the other elephants were part of this energy of peace. That they were contributing to equilibrium at a planetary level. There existed a huge egregor (collective group mind) of peace, of love and compassion that compensated for what is happening today in the world. One can get a further sense of the elephants’ deep spirituality from an inner communication Joy had with Pelusa the elephant. Pelusa’s message for our world gives hope and is full of insight. May all humanity hear these good tidings and wake up quickly so the new era that Pelusa speaks of comes about soon.

That’s why we have to protect the environment because it protects us. All the trees, they don’t say anything. But they quietly radiate their peacefulness. And the oxygen from them is helping us to calm our minds. Imagine if you don’t have enough oxygen? I don’t know, I just, scientifically speaking it’s like that. But before I knew all the scientific research, I already feel that trees are good for me. I just feel good, being under them. Even my dogs, they try to find a tree to scratch a little their neck or something or lay under the tree. It’s cooler, and it just feels peaceful.

I bow down at the feet of Marpa Lho Draug. Oh, Father Guru! Pray grant me Your grace-wave and accomplishment. You, eight beauties of the Deva-realm, Have offered me white rice, the wondrous fruit of Dhyana (a state of deep meditation). Eating it my body is strengthened, and my mind enlivened. As a token of my gratitude, I sing this song of Dharma (True Teaching) to you. Now, lift up your ears, and listen to me carefully. Even though one reaches the highest Heaven of the white Devas, It has no permanent value and meaning! Lovable and touching are those flowers of youth in Heaven. But however pleasant it may seem to be, In the end comes separation. Although the bliss in Heaven seems to be very great, It is merely a deceitful mirage, a bewildering hallucination; In fact, it is the very cause of the return to suffering! Thinking of the miseries of the Six Realms in Samsara (migration and transmigration), I cannot help but have a feeling of disgust and aversion – A feeling of anguish and distressed emotion! Should you intend to practice the teaching of Buddha, You must take refuge in the Three Precious Ones and pray to them. Sentient beings in the Six Realms You should consider as your parents. Give to the poor, and offer to the Guru! For the benefit of all, dedicate your merits.

We had the honor of learning more about the Note-Dame de Paris from the Reverend Monsignor Patrick Chauvet. Monsignor Chauvet recalls some memorable moments from the long life of Notre-Dame de Paris. The vows of Louis XIII are an important moment that still resonates today, because every August 15th, we reiterate Louis XIII’s vows. Another memorable time at Notre-Dame of Paris was when Napoleon Bonaparte became Emperor of the French and King of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy. That’s where Napoleon was crowned. When peace was achieved after a period of conflict, Notre-Dame de Paris was the first place that the Parisians people went to in grateful celebration.

“I sacrifice this body thus, because I want to have this happiness, lasting happiness and bliss for myself and for all others.” So he jumped into the fire, and then all the heavens and earth trembled again and everybody was so touched. And at the time that everyone was so sorrowful and frightened, suddenly the whole fire turned into a lotus pond. All the beautiful fragrance came and came into people’s noses, and they were happy, happy. Even the Sakra god and the Brahma god had to praise the prince. “At that time, it’s because of love for all beings that You sacrificed thus. Now You have attained the great Buddhahood, please stay and teach all beings.”

One of the renowned Masters of this religion is Milarepa. This most famous hero of Tibet lived from 1052 to 1135 and His story of personal redemption has continued to be an inspiration to many generations. Through songs called dohas, Milarepa imparted Divine teachings on spiritual devotion and wisdom. Today, we present to you an excerpt from the holy text of Tibetan Buddhism titled, “The Hundred Thousand Songs of Milarepa,” Milarepa and the Pigeon. The nature of Mind is the (inner Heavenly) Light and the Void. By realizing the awareness of Light-Void, I merge myself in the original state of Non-effort. To good and bad experiences am I indifferent. With a mind of Non-effort, I feel happiness and joy.

Cayce would say dreams can give you insights into your physical health, your emotions, and your spirituality. Your dreams have your best interests at heart. They come from your Higher Self, your spiritual self. Cayce would say that people are always trying to get guidance, and that the subconscious mind, the superconscious mind is trying to give you guidance. All you have to do is watch your dreams. I think dreams can give us insight into things we need to work on for our own growth and development. We might get insight into things only our Divine Self knows about.

Because sacrificing money or wife or children is not as difficult as sacrificing your own body and suffering slowly like that, not like a quick death. So, the Brahma wanted to remind the Buddha of the reason why He wanted to become Buddha, and so much sacrifice He had done. So now He attained Buddhahood, He should not have forgotten what He wanted to do, liberate other beings, even though it’s difficult. Yes, so at least He should try. And the Brahma saw that there are some numbers of beings who are ready for this teaching, can be taught, and can be saved, so please don’t look at others, the ignorant group, but teach these who are ready to hear; so he kept repeating the sacrifice of Buddha.

The spiritual life of the Yezidis has been preserved primarily by oral tradition. Therefore, it is a living religion of the spirit which only recently has been recorded into texts. But there are guardians of the sacred textual tradition of Yezidism, and they are called the Qewwals, literally meaning “professionals of the world.” The Qewwals are the interpreters of the sacred textual tradition of Yezidism, touring the communities living some way away from Lalish in Iraq, which is the most sacred place to the Yezidis. In the presence of an image of the Peacock symbolizing the venerated deity Tawusi Melek, the Qewwals preach sermons and sing hymns while playing the holy instruments of Yezidism: the def (tambourine) and shibab (flute).

So all of these lives and the body has been reborn and died, reborn and died, it was a waste, waste of time, waste of a body. It has not been offered to seek the Truth, to attain enlightenment. Therefore, all these bodies have been such a waste. So, this time I want to nail my body to offer to the master to search for Buddhahood. So at this time, I do this to offer my body in order to become Buddha. To use this merit toward Buddhahood. So do not stop me because I do this also for you, for all of you. When I become Buddha, I will liberate you first, enlighten you first. This is a very great merit. It’s a very great cause. So do not try to deter me.
