"Books, like people, are multi-dimensional portals into other worlds -- realms beyond the visual simulation that we co-exist within. To open a book is to pierce the dark veil of 3rd dimensional limitative living and embark towards the ever-present light of immortality." ― C.K. Lee
"To live in the world without becoming aware of the meaning of the world is like wandering about in a great library without touching the books." ― Manly P. Hall
"The consideration of man's body has not changed to meet the new conditions of this artificial environment that has replaced his natural one. The result is that of perceptual discord between man and his environment. The effect of this discord is a general deterioration of man's body, the symptoms of which are termed disease." ― Hilton Hotema
“Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these three forces are the very nerve of education.” ― Rudolf Steiner
This edition was prepared for members of The Seventieth Annual Convocation of the education depart of the Rose Cross Order, which was founded in America in 1858. Members of this 'Sacred College' as they labeled it were called upon to sacredly obey their vows. The manuscript of which this book was based was written by Freeman B. Dowd shortly before his passing, and its publication was ordered by The Rose Cross Order in October 1917. A rather interesting and scarce work on the subject of Rosicrucianism. Contents include: The Magi, Nature, The Way of Life, Existence, The Laws of Life, Life and Form, God and Spirit, The Savior, To Become, The Ego, I Am.
