What think you, loving people, and how seem you affected, seeing that you now understand and know, that we acknowledge ourselves truly and sincerely to profess Christ, condemn the Pope, addict ourselves to the true Philosophy, lead a Christian life, and daily call, entreat and invite many more unto our Fraternity, unto whom the same Light of God likewise appeareth?
I was walking around Subang Parade when I saw a guy wearing a t-shirt with the Rose Cross print at the back. On seeing that,I smiled and wondered if that guy really knows what he is wearing. Later on, the bf asked why did I smile at the guy.
Here's my explanation:
A rose cross or a rose croix is different from the cross that is often seen in churches or normally worn by Christians. As its namesake states, rose cross has a white rose in the center of the cross and predates the Christian Cross and is not linked to any religion. The cross has equal lengths signifying man who are created in the image of God (As above,as below).
The rose cross symbolizes the redemption of man through the union of his lower temporal nature with his higher eternal nature,basically finding salvation thru knowledge.
Many secret societies have been linked with the rose cross,starting with the Rosicrucians, Masons and Ordo Templi Orientis.
The modern interpretation of the rose cross is a crown of red roses with a white rose at the center with a 5 pointed star behind it.This symbolizes a gathering of the Brethen.
Ps: So blind Man can be of the truth that is seen everywhere.
