Believe me, AMORC’s practices rest securely on certain doctrines, of which its cosmological and ontological doctrines are paramount. I used cosmological to mean over-all descriptive elements for signifying the origin and structure of the universe, including the galaxies, solar systems, planets and the like. By ontological, I mean all descriptive elements that signify the essential nature of things- like God, the soul, time, space, matter, energy and how they are related from the standpoint of “beingness” or “existence.”
If there is one thing that is very clever about AMORC, is that it has the audacity to try and frame a complete cosmology to answer many great questions about the universe, all of which bear heavily on its members motivations to sit in their Home Sanctums, do their experiments with invisibility and telepathy and pay their dues monthly like good Rosicrucians.
As anyone who has read The Prisoner of San Jose knows, I encountered literature on Mind Control only after I had been a Rosicrucian for over twenty years. So it was at that time, that I began to make some distinctions between AMORC and other Mind Control cults. As I said in AMORC UNMASKED,
But after considerable time delving into the literature, I began to realize that AMORC worked similarly to other Mind Control cults- with one single exception. Members were generally recruited through advertisements, not people. And they were indoctrinated principally through the monographs utilizing a combination of highly authoritarian doctrines coupled with a progressive program of hypnotic indoctrination and mind control.
Back in 1950, as exhibited in my latest book, the Rosicrucians had an ad, which was placed in various magazines. Part of the text reads:
WILL MAN CREATE LIFE?
Does the Secret of Life Belong to Divinity alone?
For centuries, man has dared to invade realms which theology has believed sacred. He has revealed the secret of organic functions and measured the forces of mind- now, breathlessly, he tears at the veil which conceals the nature of life itself. Will this be his crowning achievement- or his utter annihilation…?

You will find an answer to the creation of life in the ageless teachings of the Rosicrucians….
The Secret of Life? Well, I just revealed it to you in my last blog. It is concealed in the 7th Law of the Nodin Manuscript.
Life results from the interaction produced on the surface of the Earth between the two polarities of Nous, this interference manifesting by the combined action of the four principals of nature.
Now you know it. Get to work!
