Enneadic Star Pronaos Presents a Sound Healing Workshop – Mar 2 and 3, 2024 (10am to 2pm)

On MARCH 2 and 3, Enneadic Star Pronaos presents a rare experience in Sound Healing. This workshop runs from 10 – 2pm, at Parkrose Lodge each day, with a catered Mediterranean-style meal at the end on Sunday. This event is open to members and non-members, so please bring your friends. If you plan to stay for the Sunday meal, please send us an email at oregon@amorc.rosicrucian.org with the count of the diners, BY THURS FEB 29th, so we can order enough food.

Sound healing is effective because we are at the most fundamental levels electrically charged, fluid based entities that are subject to the influence of vibrations that we encounter in our ambient medium. This is a scientific way of saying that sound healing works. Wouldn’t you like to learn how to use sound healing?

Our instructor is Courtney Sappington, who is certified in several healing modalities, including sound healing. No cost to attend, but please donate what you feel represents your gratitude for the presentation. Rosicrucians call this type of donation the principle of AMRA.Click here for directions to the event location (Parkrose Lodge, 812 NE 102nd Ave; Portland, OR 97220)

Convocation “Time Travel” – Feb 25, 2024 2pm Pacific Time

“Time is not a material condition. It is a product of the human consciousness.”

Welcome back to meetings with your friends of like mind after the most recent disruptions: not the snow and ice storm, but the one caused by the Superb Owl! (Super Bowl, ;o)

Join us at Frog Pond Grange (27350 Stafford Rd; Wilsonville, OR 97070) this coming Sunday Feb 25, 2pm, for a Convocation with an experiment in Time Travel, great refreshments afterwards, and then follow-up experiments dowsing with pendulums! Last meeting we were introduced to dowsing rods, and some actually found hidden candy with them. One did not, but he claims to be a strong pendulum dowser, so we’ll work on that this meeting. Bring your rods and pendulums! Things will be hidden all over the place! Members only from 2pm – 3pm. Open to all at 3pm.

Members: even though time doesn’t exist, do be there early because we lock the door at 2pm. If this will be a new visit for you, come around 1:20 so we can show you the traditions of Pronaos Convocations.

The Art of Radiating Love – Online Meeting – 1:00PM Pacific Time 02-10-2024

Greetings, Respected Members of AMORC.

Enneadic Star Pronaos invites you to join us for an online AMORC members-only event.

Please join us on Saturday Feb 10, 1:00 pm PST for an online program featuring a video entitled “The Art of Radiating Love”, based on the inspiring article of the same title by Gerard T. Lyle in the May 1979 issue of the Rosicrucian Digest. The video features Fr. Hugh McCague, a very learned and skilled speaker, who expands on the insights of that intriguing article and its call for us to radiate love as a way of life. What type of love is involved? How is the practice sustainable? How can we check if we are becoming proficient? How does the practice relate to metaphysical aid, the human aura, and the purpose of mysticism? Join us as we continue to explore Rosicrucian laws and principles and their application for Self-Mastery and harmonious living. Afterward, we’ll discuss our experiences with the guided meditation in this presentation, and our other experiences contacting and working from within the Celestial Sanctum.

Online Meeting – Sat Jan 20, 1:00 PM Pacific – “What’s Love Got to do With It?”

Greetings, Respected Members of AMORC.

Enneadic Star Pronaos invites you to join us on Saturday January 20, 1:00 p.m. PST for an online program featuring a video entitled “What’s Love Got to Do with It? Universal Love and its many expressions”.

Soror Ingrid Young has created this hour-long summary of love and its powers. “Love is not “a second-hand emotion.” It is in fact the Essence of Cosmic Consciousness that connects us all. In this video, Soror Ingrid explores the many expressions of Universal Love: its Cosmic Origins, its various human manifestations as taught by the ancient Greeks, and its enduring mystical qualities as taught by the Rosicrucians. We conclude with a special heart meditation designed by a beloved frater of our Order.” This meeting is for AMORC members only.

The First Cause

It seems to me that Atheism as a belief system is equivalent to various questionable belief systems in that it is fashionable to many who see many others in intellectual and power circles believing in it. Yet, like the others, when examined more closely it just fails to hold up to the prevailing evidence. For argument’s sake here are a few articles to.just show this is at the very least a very debatable idea. 

Starting from a presumption, just to stretch the mind say, that Atheism isn’t valid or at least is only a spurious dominant or superior viewpoint, then what is the most likely alternative? That would seem to be a ‘Mind cause’ which can be referred to as Source, Universal Intelligence, Creator, Cosmic Mind, God, or whatever term each individual feels most comfortable with. 

One idea among theologians that I really like is that “God is that which nothing greater can be thought.” For if there is something that is greater than a conceived God/Mind/Creator then the greater conception would be the superior thing and that which is more probable.

That which is infinite is greater than that which is finite. Therefore an infinite Mind cause is more probable than a finite God or Mind cause / Creator. What could that kind of Mind-Cause be like? There is no known or universally agreed upon description of it. Well, other infinite ’things’ that come to mind are types of energy – the electromagnetic spectrum for example. So a Creator consisting of infinite energy, with an infinite capacity to manifest limiting fields of control or restriction of its nature while maintaining qualities of infinite consciousness or omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence would be a reasonable possibility. 

In this conception that which we would call ’Soul’ would be a portion of this spectrum. A Life Force may also be part of this spectrum. Then rather than discrete, independent souls there would instead be something like souls being somewhat like distinct wave patterns imprinted upon an infinite soul force in a like manner of radio or television broadcasts imprinted upon their carrier waves. 

From the human mind perspective with its limited senses this could all appear as a purely material reality composed of discrete jumbles of reactive chemical elements and imagined them being possibly infused with independent and discrete soul segments that can survive the physical breakdown of the material bonds they are temporarily associated with. 

Maybe something worth pondering. Some may want to think further on any implications. Such thought cannot hurt as stretching the mind would intuitively seem to be a universal good in itself.

Enneadic Star Pronaos Convocation – Sun Nov 12th, 2023 at 1:00 PM

Enneadic Star Pronaos welcomes you to attend a convocation at our Wilsonville location this coming Sunday, November 12th. “Space Travel” will be the experiment for the meeting, and here’s a brief preview: “There do exist invisible planes that for certain faculties of our consciousness are as perceptible and as real as the physical environment…. the aim of the experiment that we are going to carry out is to show that the human consciousness is capable of journeying through space and of harmonizing itself through imagination with the world of the infinitely small and the infinitely big.” This meeting is for members only; please bring your membership credentials.
