Mankind is beset by its anxieties, worries, and fearsmany of which could be laid aside if only more of theWorld’s truths were universally known.

Much amxety is expressed over such questions as:Do wc have im mor ta l life? Of what does it consist?

• Just exactly who goes to “ Heaven’’ and 'Oio doesn’t?Under what conditions will we see our loved ones again,if at all? Will church members fare better than nonchurch members in the hereafter? Has any particularchurch denomination a monopoly on “Heaven” ?

The truth concerning these questions and manymore is here on Earth now. If your mind is not shutagainst truths you have never heard or been taught,

, you can learn the truth and the truth shall make you

free.

The Rosicrucian Order has been in existence for330 years and has acted as a repository for the World’s

f;reat truths gathered from the World’s great religiouseaders, thinkers, and philosophers. For example, whats now being found in the Dead Sea Scrolls conccrn-

• ing the Cssenes has been knov.n to the Rosicruciansfrom the time of Christ.

You are invited to invcsiigatc the Rosicrucian Order

by writing for their free booklet, ‘THE MASTERY OFL IF E ” which outlines what they have to offer the sin

cere seekers after truth.

The Rosicrucian* throughoutthe jurisdiction of the philosophicorder will gather for this annual

ceremony, relates Mrs. JosephDelon, master of the local AMORCRosicrucian Pronaos.

The public is invited to witness the ritual and moot thelocal Rosicrucians and thou* families at a pot luck picnic lunch.People attending the event arerequested to bring their own tableservice.

The pyramid of Chepos was

started about 40(H) R rtre la tedMrs. lKlon on the fall equinox.I ’nlike the other pyramids constructed during the pyramid ageof Kuypt. it was not intended a«a burial place tor a pharnah whor!c>ired a monument for his reignbut as a temple of learning.

The construction of the greatpyramid, explained Mrs. Delon,required a knowledge of all theknown sciences of that period.

Since the Rosicrucians tracetheir traditional origin back tothe year 1350 B.C., according toMrs. Delon, when Amenhotepwas pharoah of Kgypt and historically known as the first greatpersonality in history, they commemorate their ancient originby the ritualistic construction ofa miniature pyramid.

The laying of each stone represents to them the cultural accomplishments of the order during each year of its existence. Theapex will be placed upon a miniature pyramid at a future timewhen the ideals of the Rosicruiailmovement have boon realized.

Why Are We Here?Are We Here For a Definite Duty?

Many a time have younot p a u s e d to wonder,“Why?”

Why you are as you are,and others are doctors, lawyers, b a n k e r s , clerks,housewives, and so forth?

Why some are prosperousand healthy, others in direneed? Why we are calledequal, when such inequalities exist?

Why are we permitted tom a k e the mistakes forwhich we must suffer penalties? Why does God, Divinity, or our C r e a t o r ,whichever term you are

familiar with, permit us tomake such errors? Whymust we learn through suffering for a mistake? Whyare we not shown how toprevent the mistake?

Why do God and naturemathematically a n d systematically decree the existence and manifestationof everything here on thisplane, and still we our

selves apparently do notknow why we are here onthis earth plane?

Why, if we are here for adefinite purpose or act, dowe not return again to beable to complete our dutyand purpose on this plane?Perhaps we do.

These q u e s t i o n s the

churches, universities, andscience in general, attemptto answer: but still thereis much about these questions that causes the average person to ponder, andapparently he is left without adequate information.Certainly someone m u s tknow the answer and reason.

AMORC, the international

Rosicrucian Order, is composed of men and womeninterested in questions ofthis nature, in self-evolution, and in securing thelogical answers to thesequestions. Therefore, theycan show you how, to yoursatisfaction, you may secure the knowledge thatlies behind the veil.

KEY TO PEACEEditor: I just came across a

paragraph in an article from_ apast issue of the "Rosicrucian Digest.” which I believe to be exceptionally timely, and of greatvalue to every citizen. It strikesme as being the real key to peace:

“The first step if for all thosecountries whose ideals purport tobe democratic, to strive for theabolition of nationalism and theintegration of physical and economical resources. If we are sincere in desiring to attain worldpeace, the sacrifice of nationalism will be made. If national

ism, local history, and customsare more efficacious in influencing us, then we are doomed toworld catastrophe- The axiom:“Pride goeth before destructionand a haughty spirit before afall.” is ever true."

Let’s hope this axiom is heededbefore it’s 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, they—centuries ago

—instituted the Rosicrucian Order. 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 Order is internationally known as "AMORC*

(an abbreviation) and the AMORC in America and all

other lands constitutes the only form of Rosicrucian

activities united in one body. The AMORC 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 mori

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

tended the session, which featureda Science Symposium in which theprincipal speaker, James R. Morgan, reported that “ the pushbuttonera is coming by leaps and bounds.One man, sitting in front of thegigantic instrument panel of amodern atomic reactor, controlsmany millions of watts of powerand through ihem the destinies ofthousands of people/'

Improvement in the abundanceand economy of atomic power contrasted with the increasing scarcity and rising cost of fossil fuelwill inevitably lend to almost universal electrification, Morgan, ametallurgist, said, and “ all this isscarcely an introduction to thereally big things to come! Fusion,or ‘hydrogen,’ power will no doubtreplace atomic power even beforethe atomic industry has reached

maturity as an industry."

The Rosicrucian InternationalConvention, held annually at thisphilosophical organization’s headquarters in San Jose, boasts oneof the most international audi

ences. Its program consists of dramas, demonstrations in art, science, and mysticism, of films, lectures, forums, and rituals. Feature events this year, in additionto Morgan, included a talk on thuDead Sea Scrolls by Dr. AvrahamBiran, lsraelian Consul for WesternUnited States, and a unique exhibit of canine intelligence presentedby the West’s training center ofGuide Dogs for the Blind.
