The Way
A Text Book for the Student of Rosicrucian Philosophy (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Way: A Text Book for the Student of Rosicrucian Philosophy<br><br>The Seventieth Annual Convocation of the educational department of the Rose Cross Order, founded in America by Dr. P. B. Randolph in the year 1858, was called to convene on the twenty-fourth of October, 1917, to continue for a period of no less than two weeks.<br><br>The reason the Convocation was called for this date was due to the desire that, on the night of All Souls, the Sacred College might be convened and that all present at the Convocation might take part in the services.<br><br>On All Souls Night all were assembled in the Temple and services commenced with the Requiems and the solemn Invocations, as taught by the Ancient Magi, which have been handed down faithfully from Master to Master up to the present time.<br><br>At the conclusion of the services and before the Sacred College came to a close, the Order of Knighthood was conferred upon Dr. M. C. Carpenter and he became a member thereof.<br><br>The Sacred College will hold solemn Mass for heroes at the front who may have lost their lives, on Thanksgiving night and also on Christmas eve. The Mass and Requiems will be of the nature of those held on All Souls Night, and the solemn Invocations will be offered for the peace and repose of the soldiers who die for truth and liberty. All members of the Knighthood and the Sacred College are called upon to sacredly obey their vows.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
