Since the expulsion of man and woman from the [[Garden of Eden]] (the Mystery School of [[Lord Maitreya]], | Since the expulsion of man and woman from the [[Garden of Eden]] (the Mystery School of [[Lord Maitreya]]), because of the misuse of the [[sacred fire]] in the incorrect application of [[free will]], the [[Great White Brotherhood]] has maintained mystery schools, or retreats. These have served as repositories for the knowledge of the sacred fire that is vouchsafed to [[twin flame]]s when they have demonstrated the discipline necessary to keep the way of the [[Tree of Life]]. | ||
After [[the Fall]] (the willful descent into lower planes of consciousness), the Great White Brotherhood sponsored mystery schools on [[Lemuria]] and [[Atlantis]], where the higher spiritual truths were taught to those who were willing to keep the disciplines of the [[adept]]s. The [[Sangha]] of the Buddha, the Essene community at Qumran, and [[Pythagoras]]’ school at [[Crotona]] were among the more recent mystery schools. Other schools were located in the Himalayas, the Far East and Egypt, as well as in Europe and South America. | After [[the Fall]] (the willful descent into lower planes of consciousness), the Great White Brotherhood sponsored mystery schools on [[Lemuria]] and [[Atlantis]], where the higher spiritual truths were taught to those who were willing to keep the disciplines of the [[adept]]s.

In medieval Europe, the guilds were mystery schools. The cathedrals that they built reflected the mysteries of an inner law of the soul in architecture, in their design, far beyond the comprehension of medieval man. The artisans were skilled in raising the consciousness of those who entered these cathedrals by building around them a structure that reflected the inner ''<u>g</u>''eometry ''<u>o</u>''f ''<u>d</u>''ivinity that is God. Many of the secrets of the temple of Solomon and of the [[Great Pyramid]] are evidenced in the teachings of these mystery schools. The romances of [[King Arthur]] and his Knights of the Round Table are also the reports of one of the mystery schools of the Brotherhood. | In medieval Europe, the guilds were mystery schools.
