Mystery and Wisdom Schools

In ancient times wisdom schools were found in all parts of the known world: Atlantis, Egypt, Greece, Italy, the British Isles, Palestine, Tibet, and India, among others. We refer to them as mystery schools, not because what they taught was so mysterious but because it was known only to initiates. You were chosen to join a mystery school and to advance through its teachings, being initiated after completing each level by those with the highest degrees of knowledge and applications of universal law. Understanding and applying these laws was a sacred task, and most who achieved such levels of wisdom were the priests, shamans, and scholars of their time.

In our own time, the Rosicrucian Order, www.rosicrucian.org, has retained and still teaches much of the material and traditions of the ancient mystery schools. The Masonic Order has many of the traditions but unfortunately has lost much of its knowledge in the past few centuries.

Nowadays, in an era where the internet has leveled the playing field and a wealth of information (not all of it accurate!) is available with the click of a mouse, I prefer the term Wisdom School. Most of us on the spiritual path hope for wisdom, and it comes to us in varying degrees through intention, reflection, understanding, and experience.

I call my wisdom school the Diamond of Light Wisdom School because Diamond of Light is my spiritual name. Each of us has a spiritual name, which we may learn at the appropriate time.
