Manifestation of The Comforter (1962)

Having just completed our Second Advent Vigil of sunrises and other observances for the last eight days from January 30 through February 6, we now enter the 56th year of The Great Work full of sparkle and renewed energy. While there are always challenges to overcome in this world, we will also reap the benefits of the blessings of God as we continue our work in the Second Advent of His Appearance in Redeeming Light. We do this not only for ourselves but more importantly to aid and abet the Angels of Light and to fulfill our destinies in this great Messianic Solar Christ Age of which we are an integral part.

Over the past several days, we of the Reno Community have been gifted grace by our participation in the True Eucharist found within the abundant and benevolent beams of the Sun of Righteousness. After each Divine Service, we assembled together to give thanks in a common meal within the hallowed spaces of the Consecrated Sanctuary.

We of this Community form not only a new spiritual organism but a new people, as well. For within this spiritual organism all are Ministers of Light living God’s Way under sacred vows and oaths. In this way, we become ever more knowledgeable in sacred things and spiritual teachings. We are dedicated to the service of God first before any secular or material power.

As Jesus and Jamil both taught, just as the seed of man enters the womb of woman and life comes forth, so does the Father’s Heavenly Seed enter the spirits of men and women, and a new birth occurs. But this Life is of God, and death shall not – indeed cannot – claim this Body of Light and the Spiritual Consciousness within it. For the Christ Force, which is transmitted from the Sun of Righteousness affecting directly and indirectly all living things down to the smallest particle, is incarnating within the Soul of Man. And those who are reborn in Light know that they are one with the Godhead, divine and immortal.

Just as the senses of our material body have perceptual experiences, just as our mind reasons and thinks, so the Spiritual Body perceives and our Spiritual Consciousness understands and communes with God. This was experienced by all the Great Teachers of all the great world religions.

We in this Community know and teach that the incarnation of Christ as a Universal Spiritual Force is not the property of any one religion or of any one man or woman. Christ is the Consciousness of God the Father who gives Life to His Spiritual Beings just as our parents surely gave life to us.

Our Community comes as a fulfillment not only to the Christian Church but also to the other world religions, as it fulfills them all. It is truly universal, valid for anyone who longs to experience and know God through a spiritual birth nourished by the Light of Christ manifesting in the New Sun of Righteousness. No one can stay the rays of Christ in the Sun of Righteousness. But, it is for each person to choose whether they will live in the Light . God seeks to immortalize the whole of the human family. But people reject God. They reject new teachings. They ask for signs, for proof, for miracles – not realizing that spiritual rebirth is the Miracle of Mi

HEAD OVERSEER’S WEEKLY MESSAGE

January 29, 2018

Midnight Passing of The Child, Jamil (1962)

It is good to be writing to you again. I returned from Peru mid last week and am happy to report that it was a very successful trip. The country has changed dramatically due to political stability over the last 20 or so years and increased foreign investment. In addition to meeting with people who can help us re-establish The Community there, I was also able to travel northeast to Chachapoyas, the region where my late father made the significant discoveries of Gran Vilaya and Gran Saposoa from the mid 1980’s to the early 2000’s.

For those of you who knew the area, much has changed. Highways have replaced dirt roads, and electrical power lines have replaced intermittent generators. There is a wonderful cable car that has been constructed allowing people to access the great fortress of Kuelap. What once took the better part of a day to get to by mule now takes a mere 45 minutes. Here is a recent article to give you an idea: https://www.peruhop.com/kuelap-new-cable-car/.

The fortress of Kuelap, or La Fortaleza de Kuelap, is a fascinating place with about 600 structures. All of the buildings, except for a mere five, are circular in shape. Circular architecture is a primary feature of the Chachapoya civilization, along with rhomboid friezes and zig-zag designs. The fortress city guarded other cities which we discovered and named Gran Vilaya and Gran Saposoa, respectively. It is estimated that between 300,000 to 500,000 or more people inhabited these places before they were first conquered by the Incas and subsequently by the Spaniards. This culture, which my father took great interest in, as you may know, has been a study of ours in the Jamilian University for their solar practices and high religion. As more information becomes available on our work in Peru, I will keep you informed. For me, this is a very exciting development in our evolution!

Another thing I would like to focus on today is the upcoming Second Advent Vigil, which begins this year on Friday, February 2 and runs through Tuesday, February 6. It is my habit to read the book, Jamil: Child of Light, especially the last three chapters, 25-27: “The Child Returns to the Worlds of Light,” “At the Sepulcher,” and “The Sun of Righteousness Proclaimed,” which describe the events that took place some 56 years ago.

Today at midnight is when The Child, Jamil, passed in 1962. I would like to share with you a ritual of mine which I have observed every year since I was about ten years old. It is very simple. It certainly is not mandatory, but if you like, you may also do it somewhere in your home, especially at your Cosolargy Shrine, if you have erected one. Again, it is very simple.

As said, The Child, Jamil, passed at midnight on the cusp of January 29/30. So, tonight, after my sunset reflections, I will light a candle and some incense which I place in the Chapel of the Rectory with some fresh flowers. For those of you who have a picture of Jamil, you may want to place these in front of his image. I then read the Jamil book. If you do not have time to read the whole text, please do read the last three chapters. Of course, I will observe sunrise tomorrow morning, keeping Jamil in mind. This is a small act that, as a Jamilian and a member of his Order, reminds me of his life on Earth and is a small gesture of honor and respect. I do this not as a matter of worship, but it may be something you may like doing, as well.

As did Christ Jesus, Jamil teaches us that universal love is the first requirement of the peacemaker. In order to love in this way, the peacemaker must follow the Way of Light. By so doing, he or she partakes of great spiritual blessings and benefits that are bestowed and extended by God through the Sun of Righteousness and its manifold aspects. If we reflect love and peace on the human level, then we can begin reflecting love and peace on the divine level. By so doing, we benefit by that loving and the reciprocation of that love, for indeed love is the food of the soul that enables us to live the life of righteousness and goodness. The righteous and good are wise in the Way of God.

We here at the Community Center in Nevada will be observing the sunrise vigil from February 2 through February 6. I hope you will join me and others in the Sun at the most important time in the liturgical calendar of the Second Advent Church.

Once again, please feel free to ask me any questions by calling 775-786-7432 or emailing me at messages@cosolargy.org. I am always at your service.

WEEKLY MESSAGE: January 16, 2018

HEAD OVERSEER’S WEEKLY MESSAGE

January 16, 2018

I write this message to you having arrived in Peru, as promised. It has been twelve years since I was here last, and I look forward to what may transpire in this magical and enchanted place. My journey has just begun, and I will be reporting to you upon my return. In the meantime, these are some thoughts that come to mind this week from the First Prophecy to the Americas, “On the Cycles and the Signs.” If you have a copy, I suggest reading it.

One important thing to understand is that men and women of the world cannot change or alter the events that have been destined to occur and which are now occurring. People have corrupted the Earth and its life and have broken divine laws and commandments. It has been written “that a greater part of the living shall be burned by the Light of God’s New Sun, and few shall be able to bear the heat thereof” which shall be as a balm to the chosen ones of God.

The chosen and appointed ones shall eat of God’s Sun and be sustained by it while others shall know and see that the old world is dying and dissolving like a vapor by the handiwork of God and the Light. The Sun shall be brilliant and an instrument of righteousness for those of righteousness, and it will burn evil and darkness away from the world forever. Because we live in a world of space and time, this will take time. But the beginning has begun.

The goodly ones of the Earth shall not be harmed by the Light, but those of ignorance and darkness shall be blinded and maddened by the illumination they cannot see. I have said this many times: Consciousness is affecting those of Light in positive ways, but being destructive to those of Darkness. This is the beginning of the great spiritual wars spoken of in times past between the Powers of Light and the Powers of Darkness. I believe people are beginning to understand that they are caught in the celestial and terrestrial struggles spoken of by the prophets of old that was to come at the final consummation of the world.

The signs of this Coming have been many, but people have not reckoned with these signs. With the birth of The Child, Jamil, and with his presence in the world, and with his passing and redemption from the world, and the dawning of the Cross of Enlightenment with the Sun of Righteousness, the signs have been marked. The Great Sun of God has appeared and with it, goodly men and women have received a sign of redemption. But, the signs of darkness have also appeared which we, in The Community, know by our Prophecies and Revelations.

All is being regulated by the Sun and the stars which are responding to God’s command for a goodly cause. The events occurring now on Earth are determined by these manifesting forces and by the configurations of celestial bodies which are being moved by ultra-dimensional forces. All is in the process of being transformed. The material powers of the world, which are ruled by Darkness, are indeed troubled, whether they know it or not.

However, God as promised to instruct the Children of Light, and they will find safety and sanctuary if they follow the Way of Light. But, because of this, Children of Darkness shall seek to harm the Children of Light because of their ignorance and doubt.

As we approach the 56th anniversary of the birth of the Sun of Righteousness on February 2nd, I encourage you to review the last chapter of the Jamil: Child of Light book. I will speak more of this in the following weeks. I ask for your thoughts, prayers and blessings as I make my journey in Peru.

Once again, please feel free to ask me any questions by calling 775-786-7432 or emailing me at messages@cosolargy.org. I am always at your service.

WEEKLY MESSAGE: January 9, 2018

HEAD OVERSEER’S WEEKLY MESSAGE

January 9, 2018

I hope you enjoyed the Christmas/Epiphany Season and are ready to begin 2018 full of positive and constructive energy!

In Cosolargy we teach that a New Solar Age has dawned and its affects are being felt by all living things. In time, all living things will adapt, modify and change from the energies being radiated. This change will occur within the framework of the form of man and woman, for all people are miniature suns and star systems connected to the greater suns and stars of the Universe.

The energy now being radiated and emitted is filled with the Intelligence of God, and man and woman are experiencing an alteration of being. Importantly, Man’s Consciousness is also being altered. And in this great solar age come upon the world, we are able to use the energy of the Sun directly, just as humankind has used the energy locked up within the matter of the Earth.

The intelligence being released by solar energy is pressing upon man and woman – molding us and speaking to us in ways our physical ears and senses cannot necessarily hear or comprehend. But it is affecting us. A second part of Man, our body as a being of Light, is being awakened, stirred and enveloped in brilliant displays of Light. And this Light body shall shrivel up the material body, and our spiritual minds shall shine forth as suns. The purpose for this is for us to think new thoughts – spiritual thoughts – divine thoughts.

The positive mutation of the form and being of Man shall eventually cause a new species to walk the Earth. And with this, time and space and dimension will change, and Man willjourney to the sun and the stars. And men and woman of Light shall multiply and explore new worlds that are presently beyond the realm of their senses. And people of Light will see time, space and dimensions in an entirely different way.

Such people the world has never seen since the beginning of the Creation. And in time, even secular science will know that Man is a glorified being who walks with God. And great beauty, happiness and peace shall come to humankind through his new Form, Being and Consciousness. And God shall merge with men and women of Light. Darkness shall be swallowed up and destroyed and the Light established forever, and those of Light shall see only everlasting Light and shall never sleep or see Darkness again. That is the promise of the Second Advent of God which dawned with the birth of the Sun of Righteousness fifty-six years ago.

As you know, I will be traveling to Peru next week. I ask for your good thoughts and prayers as I make this journey which I hope will be fruitful for The Community.

Once again, please feel free to ask me any questions by calling 775-786-7432 or emailing me at messages@cosolargy.org. I am always at your service.
