INTRODUCTION
I
F YOU HAVE chosen to read this book it is because the words Rose-Croix,
which evoke so many mysteries, have aroused within you an emotion
originating from the depths of your soul. Whether you are aware of it or not,
you wanted to lift a corner of the veil.
Whether we are already walking along the path of the Rosicrucian
Tradition together, or whether this book came into your hands by chance, I
want you to know that I am pleased to share with you these philosophical and
spiritual reflections.
Since 1990, I have been the Imperator of the Ancient and Mystical Order
Rosae Crucis, but I also held the office of Grand Master for the French-
Language Jurisdiction for sixteen years. During these years, I was given the
opportunity to share my understanding of a number of mystical principles
with Rosicrucians who have often asked me to compile into book form the
“messages” I delivered to them. I have now done so by preparing this book
for both Rosicrucians and other seekers of the Greater Light. Of course, I
have had to select and adapt these texts so as to preserve certain aspects of
the Rosicrucian Tradition, as I am aware that it is not possible to share with
everyone the most intense moments of spiritual communion which have
united me with my fratres and sorores.
Exactly one year ago today in Toulouse, I vacated the office of Grand
Master and passed on to another the torch which had been entrusted to me in
1977. On this symbolic anniversary date, I complete this book and convey to
you, Fratres and Sorores and kind readers, my best wishes for Peace
Profound in your spiritual quest.
So Mote It Be!
Sincerely and fraternally,
Christian Bernard
Imperator
