The Great White Brotherhood

<p><em><em>&#8220;It is not that we love to be alone, but that we love to soar, and when we do soar, the company grows thinner and thinner until there is none at all&#8230;We are not the less to aim at the summits though the multitude does not ascend them.&#8221; </em></em><em><em>~</em></em><em><em>Henry David Thoreau</em></em></p><p>We are Patricia &amp; Daniel AngelsAgrarian who have devoted many years to putting the guide together under the direction of The Great White Brotherhood. Each of us has been on a spiritual path for over five decades. Since our marriage in 1990, we have been pursuing our dream of developing a homestead in order to live a simple and sustainable food and energy self-reliant lifestyle. Our mentors on this path were Helen and Scott Nearing who lived this way from the 1930s to the 1980s. Not many are attracted to this way of life, and our<em>&#160;&#8220;&#8230;</em><em><em>company </em></em><em><em>[has </em></em><em><em>grow</em></em><em><em>n]</em></em><em><em>&#160;thinner and thinner until there </em></em><em><em>[was]</em></em><em><em>&#160;none</em></em><em><em>.&#8230;&#8221; </em></em>However, we are <em><em>&#8220;&#8230;</em></em><em><em>not the less to aim at the summits</em></em><em><em>&#8230;.&#8221;</em></em></p><p>In 1970, Daniel joined a mystic teaching order called The Holy Order of MANS. Throughout the ten years he was a student, they healed him of the illusions inhibiting his ability to realize our <em><em>True Self</em></em><em><em>, </em></em>which the HOOM called <em><em>The God Self</em></em>.&#160;The guide came into being via a vision Daniel had similar&#160;to the one Ezekiel described in <em><em>Ezekiel</em></em><em><em>&#160;1:4-28. </em></em>This was when&#160;he received the information and instructions he was to incorporate into the guide. During the fall of 2014, The GWB told him to &#8220;Sit down and write,&#8221; which he began to do. He integrated the&#160;knowledge he acquired from his study of the 22 Major Arcana Tarot cards in the organization of their teachings. &#160;</p><p>Patricia assistance&#160;in the process of bringing the guide to fruition has been invaluable. She has done the proofreading and&#160;has been the source of <em><em>Strength </em></em>which has made the writing of the guide possible.&#160;What is written will make sense to readers as a result of her tireless attempts to provide clarity for the difficult to understand spiritual information being relayed.</p>
