Alchemy, Heresy, and the Inquisition
This month we explored several streams of the
Graal mysteries leading to the Hermetic
Renaissance and their suppression by the Catholic
Church. These included the early history of Alchemy,
especially Celtic and Druidic plant and herbal
alchemy. Metalurgical and spiritual alchemy will be
treated in the coming module on the Rosicrucian
Enloghtenment. They also included the Gnostic and
Pre-Protestant mystics, especially the female Pope.
The history and some details of the various
inquisitions was also examined.

The Copper Plate Oracle
Our month in India was spent in Delhi, Rishikesh,
Agra, Kolkata, and Puri on the Bay of Bengal. You can
see some of our photos at our travel blog
Pt. Sanjay Rath, Guru of the JIVA program, arranged for us to visit the Copper Plate Oracle an hour past the Konark Temple on dirt roads. He says this is the only authentic Copper Plate Oracle he knows. He reads Oracles of the ancient Sage Achyuta, founder of Sanjay's Jyotish parampara. If you'd like to see and hear what he saw for me, click HERE. |

Available Locally Onsite or by Internet
JIVA was formed in 2005 and sponsored as a diploma
and degree program by the Home Temple School of
Sacred Studies to educate people into the science of
Vedic Astrology as taught in the long tradition of
astrologers from Jagannath Puri in Orissa India. This
knowledge originates in the ancient wisdom tradition
of India known as the Vedas.
The word Jiva means ?life force? in Sanskrit, and JIVA is also an acronym for Jagannath Institute of Vedic Astrology. Jagannath means ?Lord of the Universe? in Sanskrit and is the Trimurti (Trinitarian) form of Deity that is revered in Orissa, which is where our lineage originates. |
