| 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" |
