Modern Order of Essenes: Healer and Master Attunements

[ecosophia]

I'd like to schedule a couple of attunement sessions for the Modern Order of Essenes at this point. What I have in mind is straightforward. I would like to do a second round of Healer attunements on Saturday, May 20, and then a round of Master Healer attunements on Saturday. May 27. That way I can bring the second set of initiates up to speed and then give everyone their Master Healer attunements at once.

If you're interested in receiving attunements, please let me know if these dates will work for you. We can settle the times once I know that people are good with the dates, but my working plan -- as with previous attunement sessions -- is to do the ceremony at noon and 6 pm Eastern daylight time.

Also, if you are working on the Gnostic Lessons and are planning to finish them and qualify as an Essene Master Teacher, please let me know.

Finally, just as a heads up:  as soon as time permits I will be compiling the Essene lessons into a single PDF file, which will be made available for free download on the same Creative Commons basis as the Fellowship of the Hermetic Rose lessons. That won't happen immediately -- I'm still in page proof purgatory at the moment, with final proofs of my tentacle novels to go over -- but it'll happen. Stay tuned!

The date works for me for the Master Healer attunement. I attended the first Healer attunement. I've been working on the Gnostic lessons but didn't realize I needed to do the ceremonies at the end of each lesson till today, so I'm probably not on pace for the initial Essene Master Teacher activities.

If I may piggyback on that:

From the Gnostic Lessons text, my understanding was that the ceremonies are optional and not required. My intuition is strongly advising me against taking them at this point, and thus I‘m proceeding through the lessons without taking the ceremonies.

Is that ok for the Master Teacher, or are the ceremonies required?

And in general, the Gnostic Lessons seem to be the work of a lifetime… ;-) If one proceeds through them and has made some headway, but also realises that there is still a lot of work left - is there something like a „minimum achievement“ in the Gnostic Lessons in order to become a Master Teacher? Or is it enough to do one‘s best for about a month per lesson, however far that might get one, and then simply move ahead with the lessons, and the rest will come over time?

If you don't personally feel ready to do the ceremonies, that's fine, but you do need to perform them in order to qualify as a Master Teacher. As for the "minimum achievement," put in one month of steady work on each lesson. You can and should revisit the material in them over and over again -- that's true of any course of study that's worth doing at all.

Go ahead and do the ceremonies for the lessons you've already done, perhaps at one week intervals; once you've done the work, the ceremony can be done wherever.

Thanks for the advice. I'll read over the ceremony sections again today. Luke Z
