The Rosicrucian Fellowship 688

There was a time, even as late as Greece, when
Religion, Art and Science were taught unitedly in the
Mystery -temples. But it was necessary to the better de-
velopment of each that they should separate for a time.

Religion held sole sway in the so-called 'dark ages.'
During that time it bound Science and Art hand and
foot. Then came the period of the Renaissance and Art
came to the fore in all its branches. Religion was strong
as yet, however, and Art was only too often prostituted
in the service of Religion. Last came the wave of mod-
ern Science, and with iron hand it has subjugated
Religion.

It was a detriment to the world when Religion
shackled Science. Ignorance and Superstition caused
untold woe, nevertheless man cherished a lofty spiritual
ideal then ; he hoped for a higher and better life. It is
infinitely more disastrous that Science is killing Reli-
gion, for now even Hope, the only gift of the gods left
in Pandora's box, may vanish before Materialism and
Agnosticism.

Such a state cannot continue. Reaction must set
in. If it does not, anarchy will rend the cosmos. To avert
a calamity Religion, Science and Art must reunite in a
higher expression of the Good, the True and the Beau-
tiful than obtained before the separation.

A spiritual religion, however, cannot blend with a
materialistic science any more than oil can mix with
water. Therefore steps were taken to spiritualize
Science and make Religion scientific.

In the thirteenth century a high spiritual teacherr
688

689

having the symbolical name, Christian Rosenkreuz —
Christian : Rose : Cross — appeared in Europe to com-
mence that work. He founded the mysterious Order of
Rosicrucians with the object of throwing occult light
upon the misunderstood Christian religion and to ex-
plain the mystery of life and being from the scientific
standpoint in harmony with religion.

In the past centuries the Rosicrucians have worked
in secret, but now the time has come for giving out a
definite, logical and sequential teaching concerning the
origin, evolution and future development of the world
and man, showing both the spiritual and scientific as-
pect ; a teaching which makes no statements that are not
supported by reason and logic. Such is the teaching
promulgated by the Rosicrucian Fellowship. It satisfies
the mind by giving clear explanations and neither begs
nor evades questions. It holds out a reasonable solution
to all mysteries — but, and this is a very important
"But," it does not regard the intellectual understanding
of God and the Universe as an end in itself. Far from
it. The greater the intellect, the greater the danger of
its misuse. Therefore the scientific teaching is only given
in order that man may believe and start to live the re-
ligious life which alone can bring true fellowship.

Jjeahquariera
of the Rosicrucian Fellowship

Having formed the Rosicrucian Fellowship for the
purpose of promulgating the Rosicrucian teachings and
aiding aspirants on the path of progression, it became
necessary to find a permanent home and facilities re-
quisite for doing this work. To this end a tract of land
was purchased in the little town of Oceanside, Califor-

44

690

nia, ninety miles south of Los Angeles and forty miles
north of San Diego, the southwesternmost city of the
United States.

Southern California offers exceptional opportuni-
ties for spiritual growth on account of the etheric at-
mosphere being denser than in any other part of the
world, and Mount Ecclesia, as the Rosicrucian Fellow-
ship headquarters are called, has been particularly fa-
vored in this respect.

The work was started in the end of 1911. Since
then there has been built :

A Sanctuary, wherein the Rosicrucian temple ser-
vices are held.

A two-story Administration Building, containing
on the second floor the offices of the various executive
officers, a large general office, the publishing and edi-
torial departments. On the first floor is a large, well-
equipped modern printing plant and bindery, including
a linotype for setting type, cylinder and platen presses,
folding machine, power cutter, book sewing machines,
etc.

There is a modern fireproof Dining Hall with a
capacity to accommodate one hundred and twenty at
one sitting. In it a wholesome and nutritious meatless
diet is served to workers and visitors.

There is also a Ladies' Dormitory with a commo-
dious Class Room and Social Hall, a number of Cottages
and a Tent City to take care of the overflow during the
vacation season when a specially large number of mem-
bers visit Mount Ecclesia.

The 'grounds are growing more beautiful year by
year; hundreds of palms and a profusion of flowers,
such as are seen only in California, add to the inspira-
tion and make this place a paradise in the truest sense-
of the word.

's ^largest

The Rosicrucian Fellowship is the largest and most
complete Astrological Publishing House in the world.
We publish everything needed by the Astrologer —
Textbooks, Ephemerides, and Tables of Houses. We are
perfectly self-contained and fully equipped for making
and marketing astrological and occult books, from writ-
ing the manuscript of the book in embryo to the affixion
of stamps prior to mailing the finished product to the
purchaser. All the work of calculating and writing,
linotyping, printing, binding, publishing and shipping
is done in our own plant under one roof.

Our "Simplified Scientific" Textbooks are the best
on the market, and the lowest in price.

THE CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL

In addition to the publications of the Rosicrucian
Fellowship advertised in the back of this book, there are
two correspondence courses which furnish instruction
to students who are desirous of growth and enlighten-
ment by study of the Rosicrucian Mysteries and the
Science of Astrology. Anyone who is not professionally
commercializing the spiritual sciences may apply for
admission to either or both.

There are no fixed fees, but students are expected
to contribute to the upkeep of the work for their own
good as much as because such support is needed. It is
good to remember that "a closed hand that does not
give cannot receive, either."

THE PHILOSOPHIC ENCYCLOPEDIA

dents for information concerning the underlying reasons
of astrological dicta. It is a mine of knowledge arranged
in such a manner as to be instantly accessible; no student
can afford to be without it; 112 pp. Printed on a fine grade
of paper with a heavy durable cover in two colors.

SIMPLIFIED CALCULATION FORMS

Many good Astrologers are lost to the world because
people gifted with the intuitional ability to read a horo-
scope are usually poor mathematicians. When our Simpli-
fied Calculation Forms are used, there is no mental strain;
the student has only to fill in figures in blank spaces povid-
ed, and before he realises it the horoscope is cast. 15c

These Tables of Houses are printed in size and style
uniform with our Simplified Scientific Ephemeris, large
type, clear print and fine paper.

A 12-page list (double column) gives the latitudes and
longitudes of most cities of fair size in Europe, Asia, Africa,
Australia and South America, also American cities of ten
thousand and over.

By our original simplified system we have constructed
these Tables so that with them a figure is constructed for
South latitude by the same method and with the same ease
as a figure is cast for North latitude.

These Tables cover the two most densely populated
belts of the world, including the greater part of the United
States and continental Europe, South America, South
Africa, Australia and New Zealand.

Before the beginning of 1919 we will have Tables of
Houses for Latitudes 24 to 36 degrees and 49 to 60 degrees,
ready for distribution, at the same price — 50c each.
