Course Description
It is important to understand just
what occurs when certain sacraments and liturgies are offered, for much more
activity occurs on intangible levels than on the visible level. It is also
important to understand why certain sacraments and rites were instigated and how
ancient symbols have been brought forward while still retaining their mystical
significance. In reading the text required for this course, the seminarian must
remember that it was written through a consciousness which relevant to its time
frame, thus in reading it, one must translate the astral interpretation to the
mystical, retaining the essence of truth, but reforming it into today's
capability of awareness.
Requirements:
A five to seven page critical
analysis of the text indicating the student's ability to apply the understanding
contained therein to his or her present awareness and also suggesting ways in
which the text could be reformed to be more appropriate to this time-frame.
