Freemasons
and Rosicrucians belonged to mystery schools and followed specific
teachings. These teachings were the collective wisdom entrusted to a
few and given to the many. This wisdom was passed down from one member
to another and transmitted through allegory, symbol and initiation
because of the limitations of language. In every age the wisdom was
re-interpreted to be meaningful for a modern audience.
Any new
interpretation has always encountered stiff resistance from the
established ways of thinking carried over from the past. In today's
world the Catholic Church used to dominate the western world. Today our
universities and scientific materialism dominate. There is no use for
spirituality any more or so it seems. At least we enjoy public
education and our society is mostly literate.
In a world where
the Catholic Church dominated there were no public schools and no
access to controversial theories or concepts except for Secret
Societies. It is easy for us to take for granted the basic
philosophical understanding and training we recieve through the public
school system. This was not always available to the common man or woman.
Private
tutors educated the rich and others found apprenticeships to learn
trades and life skills. Most of this training and education was oral
and given by a master to his or her apprentice.
For those not
rich enough to have private tutors organizations like Freemasonry were
the only option. Education has always been the best way for anyone to
climb into a better social class. For the first time social
organizations served the highest cause of all.
In the process of
carving one's own destiny self-education, self-esteem, and the
conscious individual have always been the highest cause. Mystery
schools and fraternal organizations are simply people of like mind and
values that join together is a supportive way for mutual education and
self empowerment.
Like the modern open source community in the
computer world, there is a shared dream of what people working together
can do to improve all of life. This is a move away from selfish greed
and poverty thinking. It is an understanding of the miracles a
supportive community can achieve.
These movements are what
allows a nation and its citizens to evolve into a higher way of living
and understanding. These are the progressive movement of life that will
always exist within creative individuals.
Sadly even the best
movements grow old and toxic. The message that once saved and
invigorated a population begins to restrict and enslave it. This is a
natural cycle and there is no avoiding it. We grow out of our old ways
and grow into new ways that allow more freedom and self-expression.
We
have outgrown religion in the commonly accepted terms and harsh cold
science has taken its place along with modern technology. Now even
science and technology are beginning to restrict and enslave us. There
is no room for spirit and individual creativity except in the
acceptance of chaos theory.
OAK merges these different
disciplines in a new way that is supportive of them all. With its
embrace of chaos theory we are given insights into a modern path of
self empowerment that is as objective and real as science with a soul
as human as Christianity once was. We have the technology to heal
ourselves and make life a heaven on earth. It is up to each individual
to claim their own small piece.
