HOW TO FORM A CONGREGATIONAL
ILLUMINIST BODY
[This statement was prepared on the In
Free Communion working group, with special thanks to
T Allen Greenfield and Brother Kibrick]
At this important point in the evolution
of the Western Magical Tradition, it is becoming increasingly
apparent that restrictive forms of gnosis based upon
“grade systems” are becoming irrelevant
for many who are attempting to perform the great work
at this time; that is perhaps why you have read this
far. Congregational illuminists operating on the principles
of Scientific Illuminism find that, although some may
have worked alone for extended periods, they may be
living in a place on the Earth where they have no contact
with others who may benefit from the sharing and developing
research that could be usefully applied individually
and collectively.
All congregational illuminists are dedicated to the
furtherance of the Great Work, through themselves and
through mutual aid.
The NEXT STEP, may be that you want to set up your
own centre of working. Free Illuminist bodies are just
that - free to choose forms, write their own charters
(samples are available as general ideas), be involved
in such community organizing as a chartered lodge under
the Rite Ancien et Primitif de Memphis-Misraim, or affiliated
with the Ecclesia Gnostica Universalis (EGnU), which
focuses on the spiritual form such as Celebratory Masses
and Liturgical work, or being totally autonomous bodies
or nodes in voluntary communion with other illuminist
bodies to whatever extent a local body or node deems
appropriate.
