    W. M. Kohler Feb. 10, 1936414 Brdwy.,Rochester , N. Y.

    Dear Mr. Kohler:

    You have written to the Scribe of the Rosicrucian Brotherhood, asking for our SealedL Book. Let that serve as our introduotion.

    The book is enclosed. I only wish that I could deliver it to you, personally, so that I could meet you and talk with you about your ambitions and desires, andTiow the Rosicrucian teachings will make them possible for you.

    Are you weary of reading books that tell you about the wonderful things accomplished by the master minds of the past? Are you tired of hearing what can be done with the raystic laws of mind and matter, without being told how YOU can do these things, easily and surely?

    If you are like thousands upon thousands of others, you will want to be MASTER of your own life, your own career. You will cease believing the fantastic tales of the adepts of the Far East and the Mystics of the Orient, and will demand that you be shown how to perform these great demonstrations of occult power.

    For ages man has accepted the doctrines of church and school on faith. Today man demands the KNOWLEDGE of the methods for self demonstration. His life and his fate are in his own making. He no longer believes that God has damned some to hell and elevated others to Heaven before birth. He wants to rise, master, succeed and create for himself. He has discovered that it is his Divine Heritage. Telling him that it is possible for mans mind to accomplish miracles without explain- ing how and revealing the secret laws, has brought discouragement, sorrow, failure, and doubt into the hearts of millions.

  • 2Lecturers, teachers, writers and selfappointed guides continu to talk about what CAN BE DONE, and leave a host of hopeful but blind searchers for the knowledge that is practical.

    Perhaps you ask yourself,wIs there some truth in the claims made and stories told? Can I learn whether there is truly an unusual knowledge, a secret power?"

    READ THE SEALED BOOK CAREFULLY. When you havefinished, dont wonder.... "sha11 I look into thisfurther?"....that hesitancy is one of the very things that holds back so many in attaining their ideis in life. Why let time and circumstance shape the course of your life? Just as the sun, moon, and planets are governed by definite laws, so you, too, are sub.ject to certain natural principies. Understand the fundamental laws of life which affect you, direct them, and bring into realization your innermost desires.

    _____ I M u g h . this.. i a . only . a .brlef.-imtling-- oiLjriiat, THEROSICRUCIANS can do for you in your search for the higher things in life, this letter constitutes an invitation to you to avail yourself of the further opportunities presented in the book.

    Let me hear from you soon, not only out of courtesy because of the invitation, but because you have at last decided to awaken those qualities that will make life what you wish it to be.

    Written this day in faith by,
