EUCHARIST – OLD MYSTIC RITE


In the earlier ages of the Christian church there existed a mystic secret worship, from which a part of congregation was peremptorily excluded, as 'Encyclopedia of Freemasonry' states. Congregation was divided into three ranks. The lowest were Catechumens, who were occupied in elementary principles of the Christian religion. The next degree were called Competentes. The highest degree of Fideles were made complete and perfect Christians , and were dignified with several titles of honor. So, they were also called Iluminati (because they had been enlightened as to those secrets which were concealed from the inferior orders) or Initiati (because they were admitted to a knowledge of the
sacred mysteries).
The mysteries of the church were divided, like the Ancient Mysteries, into the lesser and the
greater. To receive greater Mysteries, was allowed just to The Fideles. The following rites have been concealed from the Catechumens, and entrusted, as the sacred mysteries, only to the Faithful [Fideles]: the manner of receiving baptism; the ceremony of confirmation; the ordination of priests; the mode of celebrating the Eucharist; the Liturgy, or Divine Service; and the doctrine of the Trinity, the Creed, and the Lord's Prayer.
No trace of this, so called Discipline of the Secret, however, is to be found after the end of the 6th century, says Mackay's 'Encyclopedia of Freemasonry'.
Corroboration for this secret teaching of the early Christians, can be traced also in New Testament, Matthew, chapter 13.

The early Christians also believed in the doctrine of re-incarnation. As author E.D. Walker states in his book 'Re-incarnation': „...Origen refers to preexistence as the general opinion. Clemens Alexandrinus taught it as a divine traditions authorized by St. Paul hinself in Romans v. 12, 14-19. Ruffinus in his letter to Anastasius says that 'This opinion was common among the primitive fathers.' Later, Jerome relates that the doctrine of transmigration was taught as an esoteric one communicated to only a select few. But Nemesius emphatically declared that all the Greeks who believed in immortality believed also in metempsychosis. Delitzsch says 'It had its advocates in the synagogues as in the church.' „
„Although Origen's teaching was condemned by the Council of Constantinople in 551, it permanently colored the stream of Chritian theology, not only in many scholastics and medieval heterodoxies, but through the all later course of religious thought, in many isolated individuals and groups.“

LATER INCARNATION OF KING HENRY VI OF ENGLAND


As I already mentioned last month, I think that I'm incarnation of the Henry VI, King of England (1421-1471). After this incarnation, I think that next one was king Edward VI of England (1537-1553). Although the latter one died when he was just 15 years old, there are some similarities and accordances between them. Both are known better for their caring of spirutual matters, chiefly religion. Maybe Henry VI re-incarnated again as king of England, because of wish to contribute to the Reformation and establishment of the Church of England.
Numerologically speaking, they share number 9. Lancaster is 9, Henry also 9. It is interesting that Henry VI was born on 15/12 (Gregorian calender), which gives (15+12=27) as well 9. Edward Tudor taken together gives 9 also. His day and month of birth 22/10 gives 5.
My date of birth is 09/05. Numerologically, my name and surname gives (5+6=11), and these are also numbers that needs have to be found in numerology of my (presumed) incarnaions.
The next incarnation, in my opinion was Frederick V, Elector of the Rhine Palatinate (1596-1632). He was born on 05/09 (according to Gregorian calender). Name Frederick is 11, Rhine is 9, Palatinate 6. Simmern, name of dynasty, is 6 as well.
Then comes the incarnation of Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor (1708-1765). Francis is 5, and the name of the dynasty from which he stems from is Lorraine, which gives 9. And date of birth (19/12/1708), altogether taken gives 11.
Next incarnation is William Dickinson. His name and surname altogether give 5. Day and month of his birth (16/04) give 11.
The one thing in common to all these incarnations is the thirst for knowledge, dealing with spirituality and mysticism. So, let me try to corroborate this, with a help from Wikipedia and Encyclopedia of Freemasonry citations. Also, they were not eager to rule with 'strong hand', and left the political executive power to others.

1) King Henry VI of England (1421-1471). [SPOUSE: Margaret of Anjou (Kaley Cuoco) FATHER: Henry V (Peter Fonda) MOTHER: Catherine of Valois (Margaret De Vogelaere)]
„He was keen on reading and 'book-learning' but showed no inclination whatsoever towards leading his country in battle — ironic, considering his reign was one of the bloodiest in English history.“ [He devoted his pastime to reading the scriptures and the old chronicles, instead of pursuing sports.]
„Henry's one lasting achievement was his fostering of education: he founded Eton College, King's College, Cambridge and All Souls College, Oxford.“
„Miracles were attributed to the king, and he was informally regarded as a saint and martyr, addressed particularly in cases of adversity.“ [Unlike his warlike father, Henry possessed a strong aversion to violence and was deeply, even obsessively, devoted to religion]
For all that, my opinion is that Henry's spirituality is bit trivialized by some historians, to say the least of it. Sometimes he is depicted as some kind of simpleton, who – in truth – shows some traits of saintly character, but that one of inferior intellect, who, I suppose he wasn't. As English monarch, he was head of the chivalric Order of the Garter, and its spirituality is somewhat more subtle, more complicated, I guess. A quotation from the Encyclopedia of Freemasonry: „Thus, in the third year of the reign of Henry VI, an act of Parliament was passed to abolish the society of Masons, and to hinder, under grievous penalties, the holding Chapters, Lodges, or other regular assemblies.Yet this act was afterwards repealed, and even before that, King Henry VI, and several of the principal Lords of his court, became fellows of the Craft." In other words, he was freemason, as well.

2) King Edward VI of England (1537-1553). [FATHER: Henry VIII (Charles Laughton) MOTHER: Jane Seymour (Andy McDowell)]
„It was during Edward's reign that Protestantism was established for the first time in England with reforms that included the abolition of clerical celibacy and the Mass and the imposition of compulsory services in English.“
„There is less doubt, however, about the religious fervour of King Edward, who was said to have read twelve chapters of scripture daily and enjoyed sermons, and was commemorated by John Foxe as a "godly imp". Edward was depicted during his life and afterwards as a new Josiah, the biblical king who destroyed the idols of Baal.“
„After 1551, the Reformation advanced further, with the approval and encouragement of Edward, who began to exert more personal influence in his role as Supreme Head of the church.“
3) Frederick V of the Rhine Palatinate (1596-1632). [SPOUSE: Elizabeth Stuart (Fani Stipković) FATHER: Frederick IV of Rhine Palatinate (Tom Hayden) MOTHER: Louise Juliana of Nassau (Jane Fonda)]
„An intellectual, a mystic, and a Calvinist, he succeeded his father as Prince-Elector of the Rhenish Palatinate in 1610. He was responsible for the construction of the famous Hortus Palatinus gardens in Heidelberg.“ [In Heidelberg, there was a Platonic academy, established by Johannes Reuchlin, who brought his mystical teaching from Firenze. Up to th end of 16th century, many German rulers embraced Hermetic teachings, as say Baigent-Leigh in „Elixir and Stone“. In the same book they describe Frederick's court as „Rosicrucian“.]
„Frederick undertook a large building campaign, designed to glorify his regime. In addition to the renovations to Heidelberg Castle mentioned above, he commissioned a courtyard garden, the Hortus Palatinus, designed by English gardener Inigo Jones and French engineer Salomon de Caus. Frederick was depicted therein as Apollo and as Hercules.“ [According to Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, Inigo Jones „left certain permanent traces in Speculative Freemasonry“]
„One of Frederick's first acts upon taking the reins of government was attendance at a meeting of the Protestant Union, during which he was struck by fever and nearly died. [Frederick was an influential member of the Protestant Union, an organization founded by his father for the protection of Protestants in the Empire.] Subsequently contemporaries described him as changed, melancholy and possibly depressed. As such, Frederick transferred much responsibility to his chancellor, Christian I, Prince of Anhalt-Bernburg.“ [Similarity with Henry VI, who felt into depression on hearing of defeat of English army. – Besides, the first two kings were born in England, and Frederick got married in England, for Elizabeth Stuart, a daughter of king James I. He himself was a king (of Bohemia) for just one winter, though.]
„Frederick left most of the day-to-day business of his government-in-exile to his counselors, although he did take some interest in his finances.“ [Also similarity with next incarnation, Francis I]
4) Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor (1708-1765). [SPOUSE: Maria Therese (Fani Stipković) FATHER: Leopold of Lorraine (Kacy Lockwood) MOTHER: Elisabeth Charlotte of Orleans (Amy Davidson)
“Francis was well content to leave the wielding of power to his able wife. He had a natural fund of good sense and brilliant business capacity and was a useful assistant to Maria Theresa in the laborious task of governing the complicated Austrian dominions, but he was not active in politics. However, his wife left him in charge of the financial affairs, which he managed well until his death.” [Similarity with Henry VI and Frederick V – Besides, Francis I was born at Nancy, town where Henry VI got married]
„In 1731 he was initiated into freemasonry (Grand Lodge of England) by John Theophilus Desaguliers at a specially convened lodge in The Hague at the house of the British Ambassador, Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield. During a subsequent visit to England, Francis was made a Master Mason at another specially convened lodge at Houghton Hall, the Norfolk estate of British Prime Minister Robert Walpole.“ [Encyclopedia of Freemasonry says: 'During the reign of Maria Theresa Freemasonry was tolerated in Vienna, due, no doubt, to the patronage of the Emperor'. He was initiated in same town, Hague, where his previous incarnation Frederick V lived in exile last 10 years of his life. (His mother Luisa Juliana was from Dutch dynasty Orange-Nassau.) ]

5) William Dickinson (1829-1895). [SPOUSE: Susan Dickinson (Mia Kovačić) FATHER: Edward Dickinson (Clint Eastwood) MOTHER: Emily Norcross Dickinson (Dina Ruiz Eastwood)
“After graduating from both Amherst College and Harvard Law School, he joined his father, Edward Dickinson, in his law practice. After his father's death, Austin became treasurer of Amherst College from 1873 until his death. In addition to his law practice and treasury work, Dickinson took part in numerous civic projects and responsibilities, such as moderating the town meetings from 1881 until his death, and acting as president of the Village Improvement Association.” [Formerly king and emperor, this time decided to incarnate as common citizen, for some reasons. Maybe to be closer to the very spring of intellectual knowledge, as the post at the college probably alowed some access to wide range of different literature. Similarity with present incarnations is in dealing with finances - the post of treasurer.]
And, - in my present life, I also worked for some time as financial clerk and treasurer.

Concerning the parents in the last five incarnations, it is obvious that in each new incarnation I had a new couple of them. But, some of them appeared also in different 'roles', as other kind of relatives, in different incarnations. For instance, Jane Fonda first appears as aunt (of Henry VI), then as mother (of Frederick V), and finally as grandmother of Francis I. Amy Davidson also appears more than just once, first as sister-in-law of Henry VI and then as mother of Francis I.
