INTRODUCTION How does Humanity get from the chaotic, unbalanced state it is in to the prophesied new time of the Aquarian Era? How is consciousness moved from an emphasis on idealism, authority and belief of the Piscean Age to the values of freedom, individual understanding, unity and direct knowledge of the Aquarian Age? This book will begin to address these question. BRIDGE TO THE NEW AGE. . . is written for the beginner on the spiritual path as well as the more seasoned student of the Himalayan Ageless Wisdom. It is not a full compendium of knowledge, but looks into the ancient spiritual history of Earth to provide an understanding of the present and the future. There is an introduction to a number of new ideas which offer a possible trajectory for humanity and Earth moving into the New Age. The reader will find a brief introduction of eastern spiritual knowledge along with western Christian teachings which is meant to expand comprehension of the beautiful holographic picture of humanity's true brotherhood and soul connection. As a bridge to the New Era, Spiritual Brotherhoods and Mystery Schools will become more outwardly apparent. The reviving of the Lesser and Greater Mysteries will provide understanding and wisdom to flourish during the great changes before us. The schools will embody the education and spiritual path for the development of the new culture. This book gives a sampling of the subjects which will be taught for the expansion of consciousness. Temples will play an important part in the culture about to dawn on this planet. The understanding of the Path of the Soul will be the overall teaching. Along this line the progressive stages of Initiation will provide the evolutionary impulse. Spiritual evolution accounts for the great changes to be seen in every area of life. In the future as in the past, Temples, through their facilitation of the Initiatory experience, will play an essential role. The Ancient Mystery teachings and Initiations of the Temple, will align humanity's consciousness with the 'Cosmic Temple of Man'. This requires a shift of dimensional awareness, therefore the characteristics of the 4th and 5th Dimensions are investigated. Cosmic Temples have been built in the past on Earth; it will be shown how this type of Temple will be built in the future and how there is a correspondence to the human spiritual body. Through the recognition of the Hermetic truth, "What is above is below, what is without is within", one is able to open to the teachings of the Temple.
