Spirit. In the Rosicrucian allegory (Fama) the<br />

meeting place of the order, built by brother C.R.,<br />

which shows the real nature of the undertaking<br />

announced by the manifestoes.<br />

"In the last paragraph of the Fama Fraternitatis:<br />

'also our building, although 100,000 people had<br />

very near seen and beheld the same, shall forever<br />

remain untouched, undestroyed and hidden to the<br />

wicked world ... Let it be ours to affirm that it is a<br />

real building, though unseen; more marvelous<br />

than any of this world's other wonders. The way<br />

to it stands open today, as in the past, and none<br />

shall fail to find it who seek diligently, in the<br />

right direction (italics added). See the path on<br />

Key 18 if the Tarot.<br />

The notion that the house of the Holy Spirit is<br />

open but on one day of the year would be far<br />

from true. Those who know the way to it may<br />

visit it as easily in January as in June. Yet it may<br />

not be saying too much to declare that the<br />

hundredth day of the astrological year is actually<br />

a date of special importance, on which<br />

Rosicrucians from all over the world do "meet"<br />

in the house of the holy spirit. This they can do<br />

through their physical bodies may be separated<br />

by thousands of miles." [Case, 1985, p. 101 .] see<br />

220, 119, 60, 64 Latin, 867.<br />

T'B to rebel, revolt; to run, discharge, matter.<br />

With different pointing: mered; rebellion, revolt.<br />

It is the power of Mem or Water of mind, which<br />

initiates revolt, for the mind can wander. Resh,<br />

the higher self, initiates the mediation<br />

effectively; here, it is the agency only of action<br />

initiated by Mem. The results are apparent in the<br />

desire-nature or creative imagination (Daleth) in<br />

both cases.
