The Organization

Originally, I considered surrendering to the Cosmic Mother to be sufficient for abundant spiritual life. The nice thing about it is its undivided trust. And, of course, this always will remain the core of The Original Tradition. However, in the talks I have given, time and again, it appears, that most people aren't able to devote themselves unconditionally. They don't think, feel and behave with their Heart, but with their mind. So, meetings very soon deteriorate into a discussion group. Rather than receiving the New Message, people want to display their own opinions, ideas, comments, criticisms and judgements. They want to show to everyone that they "know it". The ego is so full of itself, that it cannot receive. The most difficultthing for an ego is to say "I don't know". On the contrary, it wants to make itself felt. Unfortunately, very often a deep inferiority complex, suppressed emotions or frustration about life lie in the background. Add to it Western personality, that considers opinions and judgements as contributing to "making a difference" i.e. a "strong image", the result is desastrous: spiritual meetings ending up in confusion.   

Now, with the global crisis becoming worse day by day, the responsibility toward the Mother's Revelation and subsequent insights coming out of it - having led to such a wonderful and powerful initiative like the Transformation with its Threefold Healing - forces me to re-think the principles of "my" initiative. To let it die, even before it has started would be too sad, indeed. It brought me to a point, where I myself probably would never have arrived, namely to give The Original Tradition a structure. Look at living organisms. They all consist of a soft part: regulatory systems and organs and a more callous frame: the cell-membrane, a spine or a skeleton. The structure makes it possible, that the soft parts can function and vice versa. An initiative like ours - eco-spirituality - cannot do without. In order to contribute to a New Step in Evolution it has to develop power, after all. First of all, the role of opinions, comments etc. has to be clarified. They belong to the most superficial layers of the mind. Watch yourself. Like every other thought they come and go. They are like floating leaves in a stream, passing by all the time. Thus, in this moment, you think like this, in the next moment like that. Their role in human communication is very limited. Especially in the field of spirituality!

Knowing the Origin is knowing the Truth. In order to know the Origin we have to surrender. In the Bottomlessness of Her Womb, the Light (the Divine) is born. We live in IT and IT lives in us. IT is our Divine Spark within. The Mission of The Original Tradition is to guide you to that Realization. Successful organizations - like Templars and Cathars - distinguished stages on the spiritual Path. They favored a dynamic structure serving GodRealization of its members. Constant feedback is the key. Unlike today, where "getting Enlightend" has been degraded to a purely personal enterprise, ancient Traditions have always had support systems and ..... quality control. With the aim of avoiding individualistic and materialistic excesses. This approach is very much needed nowadays. It stresses the Spiritual Community as the foundation. This Community is divided in five layers or levels. These levels have a dynamic interaction to each other i.e. people may move constantly between them. It starts with "Friends". Friends are sympathetic with our initiative, without active and regular commitments. They like to read my website, maybe talk about it sometimes with others. Maybe they attend a meeting or participate in a Retreat. Maybe they even donate once in a while, to help us grow. Once a "Friend" wants to commit him or herself he or she becomes a "Follower". It means that searching for the Origin has gained an important place in your life. You therefore may call yourself an "Original". In practice, you intensify your commitment through regular participation to various activities. 

Various activities like attending Teachings, having personal consultations ("Cosmic Coaching"), visiting a Cosmic Mother Healing Shrine, participating in a Retreat ("The Universal Way") or/and regular Celebrations can lead to the desire of becoming initiated through the "Great Night". All these activities together will make you more open to the Grace of the Cosmic Mother. One day She may grant you a Breakthrough, f.i. consisting of Satori (small Enlightenment) or beyond. From that moment on you become a candidate for the third category: the "Reborn". Here your search could end. Because the majority of people will subsequently wish to become "part of the Whole", once again. They continue working in their Communities bringing about Transformations on various levels. First of all on the spiritual level. Integration into "Heaven, earth and the (new) Community" requires restoring contact with reality in various ways. Here "Restoring the Wholeness of Life" could facilitate this your effort. Eventually, you may participate in the "Green Man" & "Wise Woman" Training with the aim of committing yourself to the ultimate Mission: "Healing the Planet"

A small part would like to lead a real spiritual life, though. In this case your new status as a "Reborn" has to become confirmed by the "Teacher". He will test you about the authenticity of your claim, together with its grade. Its grade, because there are many levels of Realization. Once confirmed by the "Teacher" you are asked to additionally hold a "maiden speech" about your Realization to a selected group of "Originals". If they agree, then you may consider yourself to be a "Reborn", member of the "Reborn Order", the same level as a Templar Knight, a Cathar "Parfait" or a "Calleagh Female Healer". Most people will stay in the Community to study further i.e. to become spiritually mature. They empower themselves through Mother Worship, the daily monastic schedule ("The Universal Way") and Service. After having accomplished it, the "Teacher" may grant you the title of (Fully) "Realized One", depending on your "achievements". The aim is to establish a whole network of Communities with a "Realized One" as the Leader. Subsequently, the "Realized Ones" will be chosing a New (Universal) "Teacher", once the old steps down or dies. The "Universal Teacher" is the head of The Original Tradition, responsible for the spiritual wellbeing of the global Community.

There are two kinds of meetings: "horizontal" ones, which manage daily affairs and "vertical" ones, concerning spiritual matters. Both meetings are attended by "Followers", "Reborn", "Realized Ones" and the "Teacher" alike. Daily affairs are settled on the basis of consensus, whereby every person, regardless his or her status, has one vote. Spiritual matters are handled the same way, with the exception that the "Teacher" has the right to veto. Decisions are thus made with a maximum of fairness, openness and transparency, actually much more democratic than in "normal" life. Moreover, respect toward seniors is a guiding principle too. These principles are very dear to us, for we have to fill in the gap Christianity left behind. This has created a dangerous "vacuum", easily occupied by fundamentalists of various colors. Our challenge is to show the world that "eco-spirituality" is a better way of life, not only for small groups but for the entire culture. We therefore are interested in keeping high standards both with regard to life and work. Needless to say, that The Original Tradition has nothing in common with neither "sects" nor "secret societies". The former are characterized by authoritarian rule, the belief in a personal savior, dogma's and magical practices, secrecy, oppression i.e. intimidation of its members, financial blackmail etc. (I bet you think of one, rightnow). Nothing of the like is part of our organization. Pray to the Mother, that The Original Tradition may soon become the Centre of the Cyclone, giving new hope to mankind in its most difficult hour......

A last word about the Reborn Order. This Order is a special creation aimed at collecting those souls who want to continue the Tradition of the Medieval Templar Knights. The latter feel it as their calling to become spiritual Warriors, serving the planet. The old Templars are surrounded by secrets. Hundreds of books have been written to unravel them. However, no one ever came to the core of things.   Until recently. After my visit to Tomar (Portugal) where the Templars had their Headquarters, Eunate (Spain) where they have a chapel, Torre del Rio (church) and Calatayud (carvings in the portal), many churches in France, as well, I could lay all the pieces together. The secret of the Templars - which at the same time was their "heresy" - was their worship of the Original Great Mother, together with Her Son/Lovers: the ancient Vegetation Gods or "Green Men", identifying themselves with the latter. In the name of their Lady they performed their miracles - their discovery of the Ark of the Covenant, dedicated to Asherah and Her Lover JHWH, their great deeds, like military successes, the construction of Gothic Churches, all named after their "Notre Dame" and their identification with "Baphomet", who is nothing else but a "Green Man". Through the Lady the Templars were Reborn, just like the Green Men were. It explains their incredible vitality. The Original Tradition is the successor of the Original Mother and Her Sons/Daughters (Gods/Goddesses). It is thus only logic, that the Templars once again become a part of this revival. Hence, the Reborn Order is open to all those, who want to realize the ideal of spiritual Warrior, dedicating their life to saving the planet. Members may come from various sources. Among them "Reborn" from the Original Tradition and Green Men and Wise Women, after their Training. Their slogan: "Amargi" or "Victory to the Mother!"*.

* In India similar developments can be observed. There "Victory to the Mother" is called "Jay Mata Di"
