A SPECIAL REPORT

We begin this Grand Report by expressing our humblest and deepest thanks to the Spiritual and Divine powers that have helped us in our strenuous efforts, and also our devoted admiration and gratitude to all the Heads of Religions, Fraternities and Philosophies which integrate the UNIVERSAL RELIGIOUS ALLIANCE for their valuable assistance until this moment, and we hope that they will continue to co-operate in our historical and timely endeavors.

¡MAY THE BEST BLESSINGS SHOWER ON ALL!

Being as we are in the SERVICE of God, Truth and Humanity, it is our obligation to be very objective in purview and our style must necessarily be compact as our task consists primarily in being most practical in our concepts as well as in our endeavors. We have no time to indulge in fancy criticism or to dress up our thoughts in poetic or mystical doctrines, and we must still face the facts or life and remain confronted with the reality that our Spiritual Mission consists primarily in harmonizing the different religious, fraternal and philosophical endeavors of this world, as well as to revive and reformulate their principles or fundamentals and synchronize and ordinate their efforts so as to render them still more evident and effective.

Despite intentioned propaganda in different latitudes all Religions have somehow a DIVINE ORIGIN, being far from being ordinary man-made organizations. No creed or cult has, in fact, the least monopoly over MYSTERY, and we beckon mysterious happenings and events at all times. Some Religions appear privileged and superior to others, but this is merely a mirage of history, as each one call on legend and mythology to enrich their institutions or to fashion their traditions. Then all people promptly believe what suits their mental make-up and appeals to their yearnings, or that gratifies their senses. Some Religions are, of course, more ‘mysterious’ or ‘miraculous’ and ‘miracle laden’ than others, but again this is merely a result of procedure and methods of action, as some people prefer the Path of Holiness, like MelchiTsedeq, Jainism and Mohammedanism, while others would rather cater to Sagacity, Holiness and accomplished philosophy like Buddhism, Pythagorism, Taoism and Ch’An; others place their choice on faith, primitive cult and missionary power exclusively like modern Christianism, while still others have a marked penchant for psychic phenomenalism and mental experiences like Spiritism, Animism and Vedantism. In the case of Zoroastrism or Mazdeism, Parsism and Manichaeism and Spiritualism at large the emphasis is placed on supranormal and Spiritual experience, whilst for the purely mystics and metaphysicians the preference is directed toward mental phenomena. All, however, are founded on transcendent mystery, higher-most Spiritual attainments, philosophical accomplishment, and Divine or supramanifested Essence (Logos, TAO, Rha, Brahma, etc.)

Religions also coincide amply and constantly in ethical designs, so there is no ground whatever to ill-intentioned criticism hurled by some to others in the sense that they are backward, inferior, evil-inspired, devil worship, or monstrously immoral. All are, in reality, custom made according to the culture of their time and the inner capacity of their followers. All are created more or less perfect by their founders, and adapted in the long run to people according to circumstances and requirements. All are, of course, respectable, even if some of their members are sometimes cruel, monstrous, ominous or devilish. All, however, are nobly intentioned and sublime in their ideals. We only have to study them with an open mind to discover to our bewilderment that God-Truth is eternal, and that Humanity is really ONE.

It is the ultimate conclusions of this sort that prove, at last though not least, that MAN is made up in pretty much the same way and for similar functions as well as with an identical supreme goal of life, so instead of being mean, vice-laden, ruthless, war-lover and ignorant he may as well decide to be a wholesome and peaceful fellow, and develop a civilization of ennobling ideals and genuine Spiritual values since this is above all to his own advantage.

All Religions have identical origin, motives and aspirations and similar endeavors. All believe in God, whether they call Him/It Universal Spirit, Brahman, Anima Mundi, Kha, Osiris, Ahura Mazda, Absolute Essence, Logos or G:.A:.O:.T:.U:. They really differ only in methods of application through rituals, dogmas, taboos and mystical attitudes, often falling short of their ideals and goals precisely in the exercise of their calling for local regency or world hegemony. Furthermore, there are numerous forms of Religion, namely, HOLINESS AND SPIRITUAL REALIZATION like in Spiritualism or Spirituality, Universality, Hermetism and Yoga, ETHICS AND PHILOSOPHY  like in Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, ETHICS AND FAITH like in Islam or Mohammedanism, SUPERSTITIOUS IDOLATRY AND WITCHCRAFT like in different mystical sects, SUN WORSHIP AND GYMNOSOPHY  as in Mazdeism and Hellenism, EXCLUSIVE FAITH AND MYSTICS like in Christianism, Spiritism and Ramakrishna Vedantism, SUPERSTITIOUS FAITH AND WITCHCRAFT like in Animism, Totemism and Voodooism, NATURISTIC AND MYSTICAL like in ancient Aryanism, the MelchiTsedeq Order, the Rose Cross Order, the Taoism, The Shashars, the Dukhobors and the Ch’An School and Apollonius of Tyana, besides the modern Teachers Epictetus, Roger Beacon, Jean Huss,  H. P. Blavatsky, Father Antoine, Maharishi Ramana, Peter Deunov, Tolstoy and Gandhi.

All these forms of Religion are not necessarily contradictory and conflicting in essence or fundamentals, and in practice they should be more like friendly imitators, brotherly collaborators, or autonomous partners of a same great enterprise, instead of cruel enemies and ruthless antagonists, or deadly competitors. In fact, none of the founders of great Religions and Philosophies in the course of yester ages has ever condemned others or sought to supplant the other one ethnically, morally, philosophically or Spiritually, primarily because ALL knew well that there is only ONE God, ONE Truth, ONE Golden Rule, and ONE Humanity. Why, then, should they hurt, defile, vilify, excommunicate, push around, hate, curse or murder each other, as some portentous morons and maniacs seem to understand and practice Religion in modern times?

The basis of the UNIVERSAL RELIGIOUS ALLIANCE may appear simple in fancy rhetorics, but it is by no means an easy task to accomplish. The Spiritual Sanctuaries and the Esoteric Schools of Sacred Mysteries as well as the ancient religious traditions offer no resistance to such a prospect as they are ever willing and ready to co-operate in genuine ethical motives and transcendental Spiritual projections. Problems arise, rather, among the organized Churches and more popular communities, as they are profoundly jealous of their orthodoxies and securely entrenched in their mystical traditions and vested interests.
