Twice today, I managed what once were unmanageable problem's and snafu's with my computer, both facebook and my website's. Wow, now there's a reason for celebration, praise and worship. Enjoy Hallelujah and a few other related song's to our Sunday Gathering on Home of Loving Spirit. Our theme, this first day of fall is mentorship, discipline and becoming the adept. Maybe a little of discovering both the Wisdom, the wizdom and the wizard within.
Especially imbedded in the curriculum of the Institute of Advanced Paradigm's master's and doctoral levels of study and mentorship, are the mystical teaching of the ages. Similar to other "secret societies of seeker's", the bachelor level minister of philiopathy is a two year trial and education requiring skill and ethics.
From the teaching's of Pythagoras, Hermes and Moses, there are steps that are required to gain entrance into the "inner sanctum" of wisdom, knowledge and philosophy. The layer's of exclusion or inclusion are often referred to as veil's, curtain's that allow some viewing through, but no clear view, or complete auditory awareness. The farther the separation, and the more veil's that block the center, the less is shared, and there are alway's some element's of a movement's discipline and practice that are restricted from all but the most proven members of the collective.
Out of these early times, there would arise a number of "secret societies" that are now known by most who casually seek out the seeker's. The Illuminate of the Catholic Church, the Knight's of Templar, the Freemason's, the Rosicrucian's and the Kabbala's secret's are those of the west, other's exist in the east and orient.
At one time, only rumor's existed, rumor's of secret handshake's, coded secret messaging, the alchemy of converting lead and mercury to gold, and the list(s) go on. Fear of the use and misuse of the power's of these secret's was the precautionary reason for hiding these philosophies, especially those of mystical, or magical nature's. All is revealed these day's, with just a little creative investigation, and with all the cat's out of the bag, its time we start sharing these wisdom's and changing our way's.
