OUR
TENETS
Among the Tenets of our Teachings We
hold....
... that the Godman,
Joshua Immanuel, the Christ, was offered directly by His
Father to us, as a pure embodiment of the Logos. As Yohannan
[Saint John] states in His Gospel, Christ is, "the real
light which enlightens every man... coming into the world"
(John 1:9). Unlike the human Masters who have blessed us
with their presences (with wisdom garnered through cycles of
incarnations), Christ and His Divine Teachings are cherished
in our work as direct, universal and timeless. As such, in
our Teachings, our beliefs and behavior are an attempt to
reflect the Wisdom and Love of Christ. The Teachings of
Christ, as preserved in the New Testament, offer
indispensable guidance in the exultation of consciousness.
… that each Spirit Soul is enhanced and edified through a
series of incarnations. Furthermore, we conduct our lives
and our experiences by vehicle of a Holy Monadic form, the
human form. There are billions upon billions of forms
composing worlds of the material and the less tangible. Each
form is contained within its particular Cycle of
Possibilities and Probabilities, demarcating a range of
attainable expressions and experience. Transmigration
between forms would be an impossible violation of Divine
Law. Humans are always humans and cannot be rendered into
animals or any other forms.
… there is but one Self extending from the present-day
personality to the Spirit-Soul Self. Division within the
Selfhood, with a layering of levels of consciousness, arises
as the Spirit enters the worlds of separation and relates to
the varying realms and worlds of reality. Each expression of
our self is a mark on a continuum of which one pole is our 'Beingness'
and the other our 'existence', with each expression vital to
the Self as a whole. This Selfhood, after completing its
sojourn into the worlds of separateness, is assimilated to
its Real nature and with the Absolute Beingness in Theosis.
In Theosis the more rarified elements of the identity
remains preserved and Self-conscious.
