Elementary Philosophy of the Modern Rosycross

Our understanding of spiritual matters is often heavily tinted by the perceptions and conditioning of the I-central self. In 'Elementary Philosophy of the Modern Rosycross', Jan van Rijckenborgh endeavors to cut through this conditioning and allow us to glimpse the reality behind these things, as seen from the point of view of the higher, divine Self - whose resurrection is taught in the School of the Golden Rosycross. Subjects covered include: the Brotherhood, the Christ-impulse, magic, initiation, involution-evolution, reincarnation, the struggle between good and evil, the alternation of opposites, the Fall, the subtle bodies, life after death, healing, the relationship between men and women, prayer, the Bible, and the lifestyle and diet appropriate for a spiritual seeker.
