Rostcruclans
Plan New Year
Rites Monday
The re enactment of a ceremony
that began in ancient Egypt over
40 centuries ago w ill be the h ig h
light of a local Rosicrucian meet*
ing next Monday night at 8
o clock.
According to E. J. W alters,
master of the Rosicrucian Santa
Cruz pronaov the ancient Egyp
tians, fro m the tim e of M emphis
to the Ptolemaic period, began
their N ew ^ a r on or about the
tim e of the vernal equinox when
the sun, on its jo u rn e y , crossos
the celestial equator and enters
the zodiacal Mgn of Aries, which
always occurs on or about March
21* This was considered the be
g in nin g of the new year and was
symbolic of new life.
The occasion of the new year
is celebrated, said Walters, by
a sym bolic feast in which the
p articipants partake of sim ple
foods corresponding to certain
basic elem ents of nature, such
as salt, corn and unferm ented
grape ju ic e .

As the R o s i c r u c i a n order,!
A M O R C . a non religious but p h il -1
osophical
fraternity,
m aintains
that its traditional o rig in occurred
d u rin g the reign of Am enhotep
IV , in 1350 RC, the order com
m em orates this ancient new year
b e g in n in g
with
a
ceremony,
though n o n re lig io u s , that e m
braces the allegorical significance
of the ace-old E g yptian rite.
March 21 is also the beginning
of the fiscal period of all Ros
icrucian
lodges, chapters and
pronaoi throughout the world,
and the date is m arked by the
in stallation of new ritualistic and
ad m in istrative officers.
New officers of th e local Ros
icrucian organization who w ill
be installed are: Mrs. Nora Delon,
m aster; W illia m W ilcox, secre
tary, and J. B. Corless, guardian.
The cerem ony and conclave is
to be in the Palom ar hotel. Vis.
itin g m em bers from San Jose,
W atsonville, Fort O rd. Felton,
Ben L om ond and o th e r surround

AND YE SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH


AND THE TRUTH SHALL
HAKE YOU FREE (John 8:32)
M ankind is beset by its anxieties, worries, and fears
m an y of which could be laid aside if only more of the
W orlds truths were universally known.
Much amxety is expressed over such questions as:
Do wc have im m o rta l life? Of what does it consist?
Ju st exactly who goes to Heaven and 'Oio doesnt?
U nder what conditions will we see our loved ones again,
if at all? Will church members fare better than non
church m em bers in the hereafter? Has any particular
church denom ination a monopoly on H eaven ?

The truth concerning these questions and m any


m ore is here on E arth now. If your m ind is not shut
against truths you have never heard or been taught,
you can learn the truth and the truth shall m ake you
free.
The Rosicrucian Order has been in existence for
330 years and has acted as a repository for the W orlds
;reat truths gathered from the W orlds great religious
eaders, thinkers, and philosophers. For example, what
Is now being found in the Dead Sea Scrolls conccrning the Cssenes has been knov.n to the Rosicrucians
from the time of Christ.

You are invited to invcsiigatc the Rosicrucian Order

by w riting for their free booklet, T H E M A S T E R Y O F


L I F E which outlines what they have to offer the sin

cere seekers after truth.

Building Rites
An outdoor ritualistic core

hi* conducted by the local order
ot Rosicrucians Sunday at 1:30
p. m. at the J. B. Corless res
idence on Kmpirc grade.
Mrs. Edward J. Walters said
that the mailing address of the
mooting place i> Box 284A, Bonny
Doon. and a sign where to turn
off will be posted opposite the
mail box.
The Rosicrucian* throughout
the jurisdiction of the philosophic
order will gather for this annual
ceremony, relates Mrs. Joseph
Delon, master of the local AMORC
Rosicrucian Pronaos.
The public is invited to wit
ness
the ritual and moot the
local Rosicrucians and thou* fam
ilies at a pot luck picnic lunch.
People attending the event are
requested to bring their own table
service.
The pyramid of Chepos was
started about 40(H) R r t r e la t e d
Mrs. lKlon on the fall equinox.
I nlike the other pyramids con
structed during the pyramid age
of Kuypt. it was not intended a
a burial place tor a pharnah who
r!c>ired a monument for his reign
but as a temple of learning.

The construction of the great


pyramid, explained Mrs. Delon,
required a knowledge of all the
known sciences of that period.
Since the Rosicrucians trace
their traditional origin back to
the year 1350 B.C., according to
Mrs. Delon, when Amenhotep
was pharoah of Kgypt and his
torically known as the first great
personality in history, they com
memorate their ancient origin
by the ritualistic construction of
a miniature pyramid.
The laying of each stone rep
resents to them the cultural ac
complishments of the order dur
ing each year of its existence. The
apex will be placed upon a min
iature pyramid at a future time
when the ideals of the Rosicruiail
movement have boon realized.

Why Are We Here?

Are We Here For a Definite Duty?


Many a time have you
not p a u s e d to wonder,
W hy?
Why you are as you are,
and others are doctors, law
yers, b a n k e r s , clerks,
housewives, and so forth?
Why some are prosperous
and healthy, others in dire
need? Why we are called
equal, when such inequali
ties exist?
Why are we permitted to
m a k e the mistakes for
which we must suffer pen
alties? Why does God, D i
vinity, or our C r e a t o r ,
whichever term you are
fam iliar with, perm it us to
make such errors? Why
must we learn through suf
fering for a m istake? Why
are we not shown how to
prevent the m istake?
Why do God and nature
m athem atically a n d sys
tematically decree the ex
istence and manifestation
of everything here on this
plane, and still we our
selves apparently do not
know why we are here on
this earth plane?

Why, if we are here for a


definite purpose or act, do
we not return again to be
able to complete our duty
and purpose on this plane?
Perhaps we do.
These q u e s t i o n s the
churches, universities, and
science in general, attem pt
to answer: but still there
is m uch about these ques
tions that causes the aver
age person to ponder, and
apparently he is left w ith
out adequate inform ation.
Certainly someone m u s t
know the answer and rea
son.
AM O RC, the international
Rosicrucian Order, is com
posed of m en and women
interested in questions of
this nature, in self-evolu
tion, and in securing the
logical answers to these
questions. Therefore, they
can show you how, to your
satisfaction, you m ay se
cure the knowledge that
lies behind the veil.
The free book, The M as

To Install New

The re-enactment of a cere?


mony that began in ancient Egypt
more than 40 centuries ago will
be the highlight of a Rosicrucian
conclave to be in Santa Cruz Mon
day night at 8 o'clock.
According to Mrs. Joe Delon,
master of the Rosicrucian Santa
Cruz pi onaos, the ancient Egyp
tians, from the time of Memphis
to the Ptolemaic period, began
their New Year on or about the
time of the vernal equinox when
the sun, on its journey, crosses
the celestial equator and enters
the zodiacal sign of Aries, which,
always occurs on or about March
21. This was considered the be
ginning of the New Year and was
symbolic of new life.
The occasion of the New Year
is celebrated, said Mrs. Delon, by
a symbolic feast in which the par
ticipants partake of simple foods
corresponding to certain basic ele
ments of nature, such as: salt,
corn, and unfcrmentcd grape
juice.
As the Rosicrucian order, AMOKC, a non-religious but philo
sophical fraternity maintains that
its traditional origin occurred dur
ing the reign of Amenhotep IV in
1350 Bt\ the order commemorates
this ancient New Year beginning
with a ceremony, though nonrelig
ious, that embraces the allegorical
significance of the age-old Egyp
tian rite.

March 21 is also ihe beginning


of the fiscal period of all Kosecrucian lodges, chapters and pronaoi throughout the world: and
the date is marked by the installa
tion of the new ritualistic and ad
ministrative officers. The new of
ficers to he installed in the Santa
Cruz Pronaos are: J. B. Corless,
master; Mrs. Paul Veatch, secre
tary. and Harry K. Held, guardian.
The ceremony and conclave is
to be in the Palomar hotel. Many
visiting members from the sur
rounding cities are expected to
attend.

KEY TO PEACE
Editor: I just came across a
paragraph in an article from_ a
past issue of the "Rosicrucian Di
gest. which I believe to be ex
ceptionally timely, and of great
value to every citizen. It strikes
me as being the real key to peace:
The first step if for all those
countries whose ideals purport to
be democratic, to strive for the
abolition of nationalism and the
integration of physical and econ
omical resources. If we are sin
cere in desiring to attain world
peace, the sacrifice of nation
alism will be made. If national
ism, local history, and customs
are more efficacious in influen
cing us, then we are doomed to
world catastrophe- The axiom:
Pride goeth before destruction
and a haughty spirit before a
fall. is ever true."
Lets hope this axiom is heeded
before its too late!

Who Are

The Rosicrucians?
The Rosicrucians are men and women who have been
motivated by the eternal quest for truth. Being brought
together by a common purpose, theycenturies ago
instituted the Rosicrucian O rder. It is a nonsecfarisn
fraternal

body,

devoted

to

the investigation, study,

and practical application of natural and spiritual laws.


The purpose of the organization is to enable all to live
in harmony with the creative, constructive cosmic forces
for the attainment of health, happiness, and peace.
The O rder

is internationally known as "A M O RC*

(an abbreviation) and the AM O RC in America and all


other lands constitutes the only form of Rosicrucian
activities united in one body. The AM ORC does not
sell its teachings. It gives them freely, with many other
privileges, to affiliate members.

Thoughts about our Cosmic origin and the desire


to awaken

and utilize fully

our latent powers and

talents are not limited to any race or class of people.


Consequently, Rosicrucians are to be found in every
walk of life and in every civilized land.
The Rosicrucians invite you to learn something m ori
about their worldwide activities and their advantages
to you.

The

Rosicrucian

teachings have a practical

application to the daily affairs of living. There is no


attempt to place the minds of the members under
bondage to any authoritative dogma.
The romantic history of the Rosicrucians, as an or*
ganizaiion centuries-old, and wha! they can do for you
as a free thinker in a modern world is fascinatingly set
forth in the free book. The Mastery of life. Merely fill

Sarafh Meets with


Rosicrucians
John Sarath, Rte. 2, has re
turned from San Jose. Calif., where
he attended the 33rd annual Rosicrucian Convention. Rosicrucians
from many parts of the world at
tended the session, which featured
a Science Symposium in which the
principal speaker, James R. Mor
gan, reported that the pushbutton
era is coming by leaps and bounds.
One man, sitting in front of the
gigantic instrument panel of a
modern atomic reactor, controls
many millions of watts of power
and through ihem the destinies of
thousands of people/'
Improvement in the abundance
and economy of atomic power con
trasted with the increasing scar
city and rising cost of fossil fuel
will inevitably lend to almost uni
versal electrification, Morgan, a
metallurgist, said, and all this is
scarcely an introduction to the
really big things to come! Fusion,
or hydrogen, power will no doubt
replace atomic power even before
the atomic industry has reached
maturity as an industry."

The
Rosicrucian International
Convention, held annually at this
philosophical organizations head
quarters in San Jose, boasts one
of the most international audi
ences. Its program consists of dra
mas, demonstrations in art, sci
ence, and mysticism, of films, lec
tures, forums, and rituals. Fea
ture events this year, in addition
to Morgan, included a talk on thu
Dead Sea Scrolls by Dr. Avraham
Biran, lsraelian Consul for Western

THE QUEST FOR HIGHER TRUTHS


Do The Present Day Dogmas
Satisfy You?
The Rosicrucian O rder is m ade up o i intelligent
people, m en and women, the world over who are ever
searching for new* truths concerning this wonderful
Cosmos. F or the m ost part, these m en and women
have not been satisfied with the dogm as perpetuated
in our present day churches and have turned else
where to seek the answers which are soul satisfying.
The R osicrucian Order is a repository (or the
ancient truths of bygone ages and new truths w hich
are ever being revealed to m ankind by Masters who
are in close attunem ent with God.
If the dogm as which you were brought up to be
lieve in do not strike a responsive chord in your
soul, perhaps your soul development has reached the
stage where it is now ready to receive the higher
truths. If this is so, the Rosicrucians stand ready to
assist you in your quest for the higher truths. Give
them a chance.
For more inform ation about the Order, write for
the frze book, The Mastery of L ife which will be
m ailed without obligation.

MATTER**
A REPORT O P THE NATIONAL RO0KCKTC1AX
CONVENTION
Thia sometime* trite phrase w i i most forcibly demonstrat
ed to be more than a mere saying at last week's International
Rosicrucian Convention. Dr. D. C. MacDonald, one of Cana
das foremost psychiatrists, presented an illustrated lecture,
depicting the emotional and mental forcea which drive men
and women in their dailv activities. In his talk, he dealt vritU
the mind-body relationship to healthy adjustment and living;
to the problem of emotions in respect to their effect on inter
personal relationships. The effect of a peraona thoughts on
the chemical components of the body was graphically demon
strated in a series of reports on experiments In this field.
There is growing evidence to show a psychosomatic basis
for many diseases. Thus the prevention and even correction
of many organic disturbances must be approached through
the mental states of the perarm involved. This gives promts#
of an ever-widening application of psychiatric treatment lit
all types of illnesses.
.
These new trends in the healing arts were discussed before
a thousand delegates to the 1959 Rosicrucian Convention, held
annually at Roslcructan Park. San Joae. California. The Con
vention also featured personal appearances by violinist, Dick
Kesner. a national favorite on the Lawrence W elk show; and
The Haskells, masters of entertaining magic. The week long
program also Included lectures, discussions, films, and dem
onstrations by noted physicians, clergymen, scientists, artists
and musicians from every part of the world. Here waa a
United Nations in miniature, bringing together the people*
of the world In common purpose.
The Rosicrucian Order. AMORC, is non-seetarlan philoso
phical fraternity. I t unites, into one Uvable philosophy, meta
physical idealism and such practical sciences as phystaa,
chemistry, biology, physiology, and psychology. Its interna*
tlonal headquarters in San Jose maintain a planetarium,
science museum, art gallery, and Egyptian museum, all opto
to the public. The Egyptian museum houses the largest col
lection ot F.gypt tan and Babylonian antiquities In western

FRANKLIN, A ROSICRUCIAN
Many readers will recall that
last weeks Issue of the Saturday
Evening Post featured on its
fro* wver a picture of Benjamin
Franklin* great American suites
man, scientist and philosopher of
the lSth century. The Post for
many years has placed its
founders likeness on the front
cover when it came time to com
memorate the anniversary of his
birthday, Jan. 16. This year it
was the 254th commemoration.
Bom In Boston in 1706, one of
17 children, and I0rh son, Frank
lin later became a prominent
member of the famous American
Philosophical Society. W* were
intrigued to learn that, along with
Thomas Jefferson, he was also
an early member anv official of
. the Order of Rosicrucians.

: The brief item which mentioned


this fact did not disclose just
,what this Order was or is. For
tunately we were enabled to learn
something about it from a
llet only recently and quite
jincidcnce sent to us. b / a
ij&der of this column. We do not
Btatfher personally, but perhaps
jbrrtr of our readers do. She is
Sirs- Arthur Franklin of rural
B^yjin Heights. Nor do we know
whit prompted her to send it.
But we appreciate her nice
thought.
So well act forth here today,
and in much briefed form, a
lew background highlights of
the intellectual and historic
Kbsicnician Order. It is called
The Ancient and Myitk Order
of Rosa Crucia, better known
America as AMORC. Dating
back to ancient Egyptian days,
rk was established and public
ized in GeriAany in 1114. The
term Rosa Crncis," which is
Latin h r Rosy Cross, was
called Rosenkreutz in Ger
man.

The Order, whose symbol is a


golden cross with a single red

rose in the center, was founded


as "The Secret Society of Philos
ophers Deeply Versed in Secrets
of Nature. It- was established in
Philadelphia in 1693. One can well
understand why Franklin was

interested in that orgtnlution.


Today its membership in all parts
of the United States consists of
an astoundingly large number of
scholars, scientists, educators,
jurists, professional men and
others of philosophical mind.
Said to now exist in all civilized
lands, the Rosicrucian Order is
a non-sectarian fraternal body of
men and women who are devoted
to the investigation and study
and the practical application of
arts and sciences and ot natural
and spiritual laws. Its main pur
pose is to enable all to live in
harmony with the creative cos
mic forces for the attainment of
health, happiness and peace.

To Rosicrucians peace is a per


sonal thing. They maintain that
the true articles of peace cannot
be legislated, but are drawn up
in the personal aspirations and
conduct of the millions of "little
people. Their Creed of Lasting
Peace is based on the premise
that it is best attained by PRE
VENTING WAR, instead of by
trying to make it AFTER WAR.
This Creed lists a dozen classifi
cations as to personal' conduct
that makes one <niilty of war.
Well quote a few excerpts.
"I am GUILTY OF WAR
when 1 arrogantly excersjK my
intelligence to the disadvantage
of my fallowmen; . . . when
I distort the opinions of others
which differ from mv own; . . .
when 1 covet what another has
honestly ncqulred; . , when
I imagine my kin and myself
to be privilege** people; . . .
when 1 believe that others must
think or live as I do; . . . when
I make success in life solely
dependent npon power, fame
and riches; . . . when I believe
that minds should be regulated
by force, rather than by rea
son.*
Peace will come, the Rosicru
cians say, when we live and act
in ways opposite to those listed
above. Well, their Creed makes
good sense. It is no wonder that
a great thinker like Benjamin
Franklin subscribed to th? Rosi
crucian Creed by active participa
tion. More should follow his ex
ample.

DHS Rosicrucians
Build Pyramid In
Local Ceremony
D e s e r t Rosicrucians joined
last Sunday, Sept. 25 at DHS
Town Ila ll in a ceremony cele
brating the construction of the
Great Pyram id which honored
Cheops,
an ancient Egyptian
king.
Gertrude W inborrow of DHS,
master of the local AMORC Rosi
crucian Phonaos, said that Rosi
crucians throughout the philoso
phic order gathered for the cere
mony.
In talking w ith Mrs. Winsborrcw she revealed the Pyram id
of Cheops at Giza was begun
about 4000 B. C., on the occasion
of the fall equinox. Unlike the
other pyram ids bu ilt during the
Pyram id Age of Egypt, it was
not intended as a burial place
for a v a in Pharaoh who desired
a m o n um e nt of his reign, but
as a temple of learning.
R e q u ir e d

K n o w le d g e

"The construction of the Great


Pyram id, It was pointed out
in Sundays Town H all meeting,
required a knowledge of all the
know n sciences of that period.
Its b u ild in g entailed a mastery
of m athem atics and physics, and
a considerable understanding of
those fundam entals of astronomy
recognized today.

Since the Rosicrucians, it is


said, trace their traditional ori
gin back to the year 1350 B.C.,
w hen Amenhotep IV was Phar
aoh of Egypt and historically
know n as the first great person
ality in history, they commemo
rate their ancient origin by the
ritualistic construction of a m in
iature pyram id. The laying of
each stone represents to them
the cultural accomplishments of
the order during each year of
its existence. The apex w ill be
placed upon a m iniature pyra
m id at a future time when the
Ideals of the Rosicrucian move
m ent have been realized.
