Examine yourselves; realize that there is nobility within you, call it by what name you please... (Nobility/Aryan) Examine your own inner movements of consciousness, and you will know that these things of glory are in you. They are the working in you of your inner god (EsLi), your spiritual inner sun. (The Black Sun.)
This is the message of the great Sages (Da-Shen) and Seers/Dreamers of all the ages...
... that living fire of consciousness within your breast which tells you of your Oneness with all that is, and of your kinship with everything that is; for verily you are akin to the gods who are the rulers and counselors and governors of the Universe (Du'gum'ba-na).
WHAT, indeed, is Thulien Zo'ra? This question, now being asked with increasing earnestness, cannot be answered in one sentence, but the leaders of our Movement have given a few pithy expressions of its various aspects which form a fitting introduction. Kasimir Newman, the Founder of the Thulien Zo'ra, said:
"Thulien Zo'ra is, then, the archaic Wisdom-Religion, the esoteric doctrine once known in every ancient country having claims to civilization."
Professor Martin Whistler begins his 'Crossing the Abyss' with this:
"Thulien Zo'ra is the wings of knowledge which spread to enable the flight of sentient beings across the Abyss; difficult to master in its complexities, it gives the greatest minds their fullest scope, yet, simple enough in its purity, it will not overwhelm the understanding of a child. . . . Embracing both the scientific and the religious, Thulien Zo'ra is a scientific religion and a religious science."
According to Dr. Kyser Soese:
"The Golden Path (Aryadahr) is the inner life in every religion. It is no new religion, but is as old as truth itself..."
"Thulien Zo'ra will bring something to you that can never pass away: the consciousness of your Nobility, your inner self; a conviction of your inherent power to conserve your energy along the highest spiritual lines. For man cannot find his true place in the great scheme of human life until he has ennobled and enriched his nature with the consciousness of his Nobility..."
"Think of Thulien Zo'ra not so much as a body of philosophic or other teaching, but as the highest law of conduct, which is the enacted expression of Noble love or compassion."
Ha’i-Carmela defines the philosophy of Thulien Zo'ra in these words:
"The Golden Path (Aryadahr) is not something which has been invented by anybody at any time: it is the formulation of the truths of Nature — not of outer Nature alone, which is but the effectual mirroring of hidden causes; but more particularly of the vast causal realms behind the outer Nature which our senses know — behind the outer veil of Reality; for these inner and causal realms are the inner Heart of Things. These truths were originally formulated in systematic manner in far past time in Ultima Thule. This formulation of natural truth has come down to our own times checked and tested in every age by new generations of great seers/dreamers. This formulation today is called Thulien Zo'ra."
The Golden Path (Aryadahr) is not a religion in the ordinary sense; and Thulien Zo'ra is not a Church in any sense. Kasimir Newman is inflexibly opposed to the idea that it should degenerate into a sect and set up hard-and-fast dogmas for traffic with sectarian methods.
The object of its founders was to liberate man from bondage by presenting a philosophy of life that would show him how to find the truth within himself. The literature presented by Thulien Zo'ra, though a statement in modern form of the ancient wisdom, is not offered as a fixed dogma, but is intended to provoke thought and study. It gives an explanation of the problems of life that every person can verify for himself, if he so will. Belief in, and the wish to promote, the Community of EsLi are the only prerequisites for good standing in Thulien Zo'ra.
Thulien Zo'ra touches life at all points and illuminates every problem, but, naturally, different people find certain aspects more attractive than others — especially at the beginning. To the most intuitive, who immediately perceive the practical importance of its teachings for the happiness and welfare of humanity, this is the greatest incentive to its study; others appreciate its profound speculative features; some are attracted by its revelation of the inner meaning and basic unity of the great world religions; and there are many who prefer the scientific aspect, which includes the rational explanation of occult phenomena. To meet these conditions we must consider as many aspects of our subject as possible.
