Ancient and Mystical Order Rosae Crucis : ウィキペディア英語版
Ancient Mystical Order Rosae Crucis


The Ancient and Mystical Order Rosæ Crucis (AMORC), also calling itself the Rosicrucian Order, is a Rosicrucianist organisation based in and primarily active in the United States. AMORC claims to be the modern day manifestation of the ancient Rose-Croix Order which they claim has its origin in the Ancient Egyptian mystery schools.〔Hermetica#Authorship and audience〕 These supposedly ancient mysteries, they claim, were preserved through the millenia by closed secret societies until the early years of 17th Century Europe. At that point, according to their internal mythology, the time was right for the existence of this body of secret knowledge to become open, i.e. revealed, to the world, in the form of the Rosicrucianist manifestos.
AMORC sees itself as belonging to the "open cycle" of this tradition, that its existence is a "reactivation" of Rosicrucianist teaching in the United States, a previous community of Rosicrucianists in the United States established at the founding of the colonies having become dormant.
AMORC was established by Harvey Spencer Lewis in 1915,〔Christian Rebisse, ''Rosicrucian History and Mysteries'' (San Jose: Supreme Grand Lodge of AMORC, 2005), pp 172–177. On 172 AMORC's Charter (Apr 1915) is shown, and on 177 is illustrated the "American Pronunziamento Number One" (Feb 1915).〕with AMORC claiming that "Lewis received authority to do so from the Supreme Council of the Rosicrucian Order after being tried, tested and finally being initiated into the Order in 1909, Toulouse, France."
Another aspect of the AMORC internal mythology, as outlined in the official Rosicrucian Manual, is that Mrs. May Banks-Stacey is the “Co-Founder and First Grand Matre in the U.S.A.” According to the Manual, she acted as a representative of the Rosicrucians “Supreme Council of the World” to bring to H. Spencer Lewis the necessary implements for reactivation.
AMORC presents itself as a worldwide philosophical and humanistic, fraternal order devoted to "the study of the elusive mysteries of life and the universe."〔(Official AMORC International Web Site Directory )〕 The organization claims that it is non-sectarian and open to both men and women of legal adult age (18 years old in most countries) regardless of their various religious persuasions.
AMORC's teachings draw upon ideas of the major philosophers, particularly Pythagoras, Thales, Solon, Heraclitus, Democritus. The teachings are divided into "Degrees" which are further grouped into broad categories under titles such as '' Postulant'', ''Neophyte,'' and ''Initiate'' sections. These degrees cover various fields related to physical, mental, psychic, and spiritual existence such as physics, metaphysics, biology, psychology, parapsychology, comparative religion, traditional healing techniques, health, intuition, extrasensory perception, material and spiritual alchemy, meditation, sacred architecture, symbolism, and that mystical state of consciousness relating to the experience of unity with the Divine.〔According to AMORC's publication ''Mastery of Life''〕
== Name ==
The name AMORC is an abbreviation for the Latin title ''Antiquus Mysticusque Ordo Rosæ Crucis'' ('Ancient and Mystic Order of the Rosy Cross'- 'Antiquus Arcanus Ordo Rosae Rubeae et Aureae Crucis) Harvey Spencer Lewis, an author and mystic who re-activated AMORC in the United States of America, wrote that "from the very start, and with the issuance of the first public manifesto, the correct name of the international Rosicrucian organization was used, namely, the ''Ancient and Mystical Order Rosae Crucis''. This is a slightly abbreviated form of the original Latin name, ''Antiquus Arcanus Ordo Rosae Rubeae et Aureae Crucis'', and the initials AMORC were immediately used as well as the true and original symbol of the Rosicrucian Order — the golden cross with but ''one red rose'' in the center."〔Lewis, H. Spencer ''Rosicrucian Questions and Answers with Complete History of the Rosicrucian Order'', pp. 180–181, Supreme Grand Lodge of AMORC, 1929, ISBN 0-912057-37-8〕
