The Order of Melchizedek

Thinking about western esoteric initiation, laying of hands, and even apostolic succession, brought me to The Order of Melchizedek.

What is this Order? It is the Royal Priesthood. It is the Divine Order and not a man made reality. It also goes by other names like the Great White Brotherhood, or the True Esoteric Hierarchy.

What are the signs? Love and its manifestation. In St John 13:35 the Master said "By this shall all men know that you are disciples of your Lord, if you have Love one to another." Thats it! Love. Its simple... or is it? We can talk about all those condemned, ostracized, [or insert your problem here] by society and the lack of love for them, but its up to you to do the Loving!

The Way, The Path of Love, is the Royal Road... The Mystic Road! There must be humility of heart, purity of purpose, and introspection with honesty to one's self.

The path of Love is not emotional love, its Divine Love that comes with Wisdom and Understanding. Love and Light are one on the Divine Realm!

On the exoteric level, anyone of any religion, or lack there of, is able to achieve this. It is an internal process. We are all simply the children of the King of All waiting for our Crown!

Choose the path of Love, realize it, become it, and "you'll know that you've been touched by the realm of the Royal Priesthood, that you are apostolic in your succession, and you are of The Order of Melchizedek, God's High Priesthood'!

about Ego

Ego is a tool!

There are a lot of bashing of Ego these days within the esoteric community. That we should destroy the Ego, that we should learn to be 'without Ego'... Why? We might reach oneness without Ego, but what does that really do? Will we be regressing back to our original state? Will that be our goal? Or are we here to learn the way back to God, a full circle to where we started, but now with *Love* and *Light* (understanding)... could that be what *Life* is about?

Ego is a tool. A tool to survive and work in this present plane of existence. We need the Ego just like we need a hammer to nail things down. As long as we understand *we are not our hammer*!! If we understand that we are not our Egos, we can Utilize our Ego to put our ideals into Action!

in Love, Light, and Life...
