The ROSICRUCIANS or the BROTHERHOOD OF THE ROSY CROSS

is a secret society which in origin was apparently nothing more than a practical joke. In 1614 an anonymous pamphlet entitled The Fama of the Fraternity... appeared, much to the surprise of all the philosophers and alchemists of the period, who each felt eminently suited to become a member of an esoteric brotherhood which announced with candour such vast occult achievement. Consequently, frantic Letters of Application were dispatched to the adress given on the pamphlet—with an utterly blank result, for not one of the impatient senders received a reply. The mysterious paper, which had behaved like a jack-o'-lantern to these good men searching for the road to All Knowledge, claimed that the Order was founded by one C.R.C. who had travelled in the Orient and while there he was initiated into all the mysteries of magic. In 1616 another paper entitled The Chymical Nuptials of Christian Rosencreutz appeared and caused a further furore in occultistic circles. For the following four years philosophers and alchemists wrote books and pamphlets in defence of the Rosicrucians, each writer hoping to convey the impression that he was himself a member of the mystical brotherhood and thereby increase the respect of his compeers. Eventually, by 1620, the Quill War came to an end, but not the vibration set in motion by the anonymous jester who created C.R.C. and his exploits; for in modern times numerous groups of people, from freemasons to theosophists, have called themselves Rosicrucians, and it is even said that the one and only C.R.C. having in his possession the secret of the elixir of life, is still living—as a Lama, in

Tibet.
Thank you.
