The Oceanside Rosicrucian Fellowship Story (1997)

[@billgrote6459]

At 19, they determined from my horoscope that I'd have a profession in publications and hired me to lay out the "Rays of the Rose Cross". After working there for a few months I ventured on to college, majored in journalism and spent the next 40 years working in publications. They gave me a direction when I was searching. I'm forever grateful.

This is a beautiful story

Hi Bill, I just graduated with a BA in English and am seeking my path. I would love to talk to you if you are willing.

Manly P Hall was a student. And that tells me all I need to know.

His mother was one of the earliest students, but he did not abide by the teaching, he is more of a comparative religion/mysteries scholar, and his formal title is a 33° mason.

Hi, my name is Johnathan Royal was born in Fallbrook and later in my life was given a Rosicrusion book and invite to the Oceanside location. I went to see it and was impressed of how beautiful it is, however I never met anyone from there, as the book and invite was left at my camp in the canyons in Oceanside as I was homeless at that moment. I read the book and agree with all that you all teach. Was wondering if one day I could become more involved and how ? Please contact me ! Thank You and Blessed Be

I’ve since I was kid in the city, I’ve been fascinated with the building and finally looking into it, am I being called, I’ll look at the building next time I’m around

[@AwokenMinds]

I be honest at first I thought low budget corny movie but it actually pulled me in and I had some laughs and learned somethings. Good actors too! I felt like they really lived that character. Thanks for the movie! Hopefully you make another soon

My mother joined this in the early 1950's. In 1982, she was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer. We submitted a healing request along with her time and place of birth. We received a letter back that told us astrology had never been used by their healing Dept, which we knew from personal experience was a LIE. We had always been asked for that info and then given a strict diet which, along with being on their healing list, had always resulted in a cure. But in my mom's most time of need, she who had contributed monthly love offerings, was simply advised to follow the advice of her doctor. She died 2 years later. I lost my mother and my religion.

[@faustinae3927]

My deepest condolences ❤

[@restrictedarea4860]

Wow may I ask you a question what was the response that you expected to receive is there a "special" hospital or facility that they could've taken her to which would've been far superior to what is offered in traditional "insurance" hospitals. And my deepest condolences losing a mother and or child is the most intense grief the human mind can be expected to deal with in its lifetime

[@sandramarcantelli4958]

@@restrictedarea4860 I expected to receive what we had received in the past from the healing dept. We'd be asked, by mail, to submit the person's day, time and place of birth. Then we'd receive a strict diet and supplements for that person to take. It helped the afflicted person every time, including me when I had a lump in my breast. I was told by my aunt who knew her that the wonderful lady who had worked in the healing dept and helped my family many times was retired at the time of my mother's illness.

@sandramarcantelli4958 were they're any books and or learning that could've/ is available for the tenured member for after temple study

[@sandramarcantelli4958]

@@restrictedarea4860 I'm unsure what you mean by temple study. My mother never attended the temple. Everything was done by mail back then. She read the books and the monthly magazine. She was what they called a probationer. She was allowed to buy fellowship books that were forbidden to anyone not a probationer. Of course, I don't know what was in them. It was the wish of the fellowship and of my mother that all such books be returned to the fellowship after the death of the probationer. My father and I respected those wishes.

Its root founding is yr 1407. Ive never met a CR that I know of. However I will soon. I beilve they have it right. Based off my own super natural experiences as well as much truth in Ancient wisdom and knowledge. I'm 66 yrs. And Rosicrucians understand as I do how the Universe and Galaxys and God work as one

[@leftthegame8039]

fantastic

[@bellaferman]

I'm NEW to this, and I'm confused, why does it cost $156 per year to join the AMROC Rosicrucians in Los Angeles and no cost ( according to one of the posts here) for the Oceanside location? I'm interested in learning and don't mind paying for the books, but I find it disagreeable to have to pay to pray to our Creator!

[@chrisgray2094]

Hi Bella. The Rosicrucian Fellowship is not the same as the AMROC. AMROC is much more occult studies than the Fellowship. They have a different belief system, and different forms of teachings. The Fellowship in Oceanside is Christian based, and very interesting. The folks there are lovely people and are happy to answer questions. On Sundays, they have a Mass in the lil Church, and then after that they have a lunch in their cafeteria. There is a $7 donation when attending the lunch, as they pay for it and make it. (Vegetarian, as the fellowship does not allow meat to be eaten). The lunch is there for a Q&A session, where the conversations get quite interesting.

[@jakekot1351]

Try the real fellowship in Quakertown Pa.

[@orungbejatoluwani7363]

AMORC, not AMROC. Basically you get instruction materials and lectures packaged and sent to you and that cost some money, asides the fact that the organization requires money to run, the temples have bills to pay, electricity, security, licenses etc. You do not pay to pray to God.

[@rev.randall2292]

They have membership to go through lessons , same as AMORC , Just look at the websites. Both are good places from what I can see after considering joining following years of study in all different matters myself. They are not a Religion , but holding to your beliefs can enhance , and help you grow as an individual with a sense of fellowship with others. AMORC youtube channel , rosicrucian tv , shares a ton of info and some lessons. ( Ancient Mystical Order of the Rose Cross. )

[@EarthWindFireable]

AMORC in San Jose is Egyptian based and they charge for lessons. Rosicrucian Fellowship in Oceanside is Christian based and they don't charge for lessons but everyone should donate what they can.

[@jeanpascal7781]

Music?

[@ewaldsteven]

Beautiful. Song ID anyone?

[@jakekot1351]

I know nothing of this "branch ". I think all interested should look into the Pennsylvania Order in Quakertown that has been around since the 1700's and is supposedly the real order.

[@SRx_dre]

What is that order called

[@user-jq4jw7fl1p]

This is quack quack at its finest. Run for the hills!

[@marilyngailnichol]

I tried it out for a year. They charged me $300. In advance for a year membership. It was a waste of time and money. It didn’t make any sense to me at all. I had to set up an alter in my home to pray at. I had to do what they called DOGMA... walking in a pattern in a hall...not what the real Creator would tell us to do.

[@garyhernandez4545]

You’re confusing Rosicrucian Fellowship with another Order. I am currently a Student, and teachings are completely free. Here is the website www.Rosicrucian.com

[@jeffreyproulx2612]

Yes, there are many groups that call themselves Rosicrucian-this or Rosicrucian-that, but they are NOT the Rosicrucian Fellowship. Make sure you attach the word "Fellowship" and you will get the group from the movie above. All the teachings are free to everyone--that has been a rule since the beginning. If you meet a member, they will eager to inform you or point you to others who can.

[@charlesmoses5070]

There is no charge in joining the fellowship. Prayer is action. You do not to pray alone but you need to work on yourself day in and and day out. If you are looking for a quick fix, this is not for you. Before you dive into any religion, please look for thing that governs you in your daily life. If you are looking for the fellowship to give you some immediate outside satisfaction, you will be sadly disappointed and so are true spiritual foundations in the world. The fellowship does not promise you a self satisfaction. If you are living a true spiritual life you must work at improving yourself daily. As I am passing through the physical life of 67 years and with the fellowship close to 50 years, I know that life as we know it is not a cake walk. There are lessons to be learned here in life and you cannot escape that. You cannot wiggle yourself through life making excuses and get away with life. You WILL find yourself back in this life starting over. Please take a time to reflect on yourself. You not be ready for the teaching from the Rosicrucian Fellowship. Maybe, you need to take one step at a time in this lifetime and you will be fine. Persistently ask questions. Start with, " Who am I?". "Where do I come from?", "Why am I here?", and do something about it. The Fellowship members on Mt. Ecclesia can help you answer some of your questions. I am here to help answer some of these questions but you have to do the hard work.

For those who like being a part of a modern cult then here you go. California is the perfect place for these followers. This is all part of prophecy that groups like this would attempt to combine all faiths into one group in preparation for the coming of Ad Dajjal (The deceiver/ Anti God) before the return of prophet Easa (Jesus), peace be upon him.

[@Officerufo1]

they have Roman Catholic classical music playing in this video, anything Roman is completely anti Rosicrucian.

[@medievalcraze4559]

Why is anything Roman anti Rosicrucian?

[@fabbianludendorff4398]

Your supposition that anything Roman is completely anti-Rosicrucian is true only in the terrestrial world of humanity where the biases and prejudices that arise from the search for power evident in the behavior of the lower-ego. This is not so in the true inner spiritual realms of the mind, heart, and soul.
