What is the Lemurian Fellowship?
A School of Universal Philosophy established under the direction and guidance of the Lemurian Brotherhood, one of the original Mystery Schools of this human life wave. Back to top.
What is the Lemurian Philosophy?
A religious teaching that is non-denominational. It teaches people how to recognize, understand, and apply God’s universal laws and principles to their everyday living. It is a practical teaching, which can be used to create a happier, more spiritual life. Back to top.
Is the Lemurian Philosophy in harmony with Christian Principles?
Yes. The simple and effective religious philosophy is the same teaching that was set forth by the Great Being known as Christ. Back to top.
How old is the Lemurian Philosophy and what is its source?
Although the Lemurian Philosophy is the Teaching of Christ, it is much older than His most recent advent 2,000 years ago. Christ first brought His Message and
Teaching to humankind over 77,000 years ago to the people of the Mukulian Empire. Although the Continent of Mu has been inundated, the complete record of its people, culture, and all that was accomplished during the 50,000 years of its history is now in the archives of the Lemurian Brotherhood. From this source of information and learning the Lemurian Brotherhood has evolved a Master Plan for the integration of a new civilization that promises to be the long-awaited Kingdom of God on earth. Back to top.
How old is the Lemurian Fellowship?
The Lemurian Mystery School sanctioned the first release of its Master Plan on September 16, 1936 and did so through its outer preparatory school, the Lemurian Fellowship. Back to top.
What are the objectives of the Lemurian Philosophy?
One purpose is to teach individuals to advance in a balanced manner – mentally, materially, and spiritually
– through the study and application of God’s universal laws.
Another major objective of the Lemurian training is to develop through its worldwide student body, a group of responsible, spiritually motivated individuals who will help usher in the new civilization exemplifying the Kingdom of God or New Age Civilization on earth. Back to top.
Who founded the Lemurian Fellowship?
The Lemurian Mystery School selected as their Direct Emissary, the Ego best known to us as Dr. Robert D. Stelle. It was this beloved teacher and friend who was responsible for founding the Lemurian Fellowship in 1936 and based on his experience the Great Ones knew he would be capable of organizing the work of the Fellowship and furthering its purpose.
During the years that Dr. Stelle was physically occupied in establishing the proper foundation for the mundane program of the Lemurian Brotherhood, he worked closely with the Fellowship staff. He saw to it that his administrative and teaching organization was sufficiently trained and experienced to carry on with the work when he would no longer be with us physically.
Dr. Stelle lived and worked at the Fellowship headquarters in Ramona until his transition in 1952. Back to top.
Where is the Lemurian Fellowship located?
The Lemurian Fellowship is located on a hillside along State Highway 67, five
miles southwest of the town of Ramona, and thirty miles inland from San Diego.
The Fellowship's 60-acre property includes offices for administration and teaching personnel, housing for the Fellowship staff, a maintenance shop and a large multi-purpose community building called Rhu House. Back to top.
Who presently heads the Lemurian Fellowship?
The Lemurian Fellowship was incorporated in 1942 as a California non-profit religious corporation and its affairs come under the jurisdiction of its Board of Governors. Today, no single individual heads up the Fellowship; the responsibility resting in the hands of the Board of Governors.
Even though Dr. Stelle is no longer “physically” engaged in the affairs of the Fellowship, he is still the Direct Emissary of the Lemurian Brotherhood. Back to top.
How is the Lemurian Philosophy taught?
Through a distance-learning course of lessons, which are written in a clear concise manner. Following each lesson is a set of questions relating to the academic information and to the student’s application of the material to everyday life.
Fellowship teachers work with each student individually, and through correspondence, assist in better understanding and applying the material. Back to top.
Does the Lemurian Fellowship conduct any classes?
No, we do not have classes. Ever since its inception, the Philosophy has been taught through the correspondence or distance learning method of teaching and training. To have classes would be of little value to our worldwide student body, so the teaching staff confines itself to personal correspondence. Back to top.
Is there a fee or tuition for the course?
There is a modest tuition charged to cover printing costs and the expense of handling each student’s lesson work.
Occasionally someone will ask why the Fellowship charges for its teaching and training. “Truth,” they say, “should be given free to all who seek it.”
Actually, the Fellowship does not charge for the incomparable information contained in the lessons and other material released by the Lemurian Brotherhood. The nominal monthly tuition barely covers printing costs and the expense of handling student lesson work and correspondence. This is not merely a reading course, but backed by individual and personal help from qualified teachers.
There is also the element of compensation, which is a cosmic principle based on universal law. To ignore this aspect would cause the student to become cosmically indebted to the channel of the Elder Brothers. It is also generally known that people tend to place little value on goods and services in which they have no investment. Only by compensating in some manner can the giving and receiving of life be kept in balance. Back to top.
Is the Lemurian Philosophy available to everyone?
Yes. Qualified individuals of any background, religion, or creed may enroll with the Fellowship as long as they are at least 18 years of age.
Students are assured that expressing their sincere thoughts and feelings is what
is most important. However, applicants must be able to read and write English,
as the Philosophy is not available in other languages at the present time. Back to top.
Is your teaching offered to children?
Yes, provided at least one of the parents is an enrolled student of the Fellowship and has progressed to a certain point in his or her study of the Lemurian Philosophy. Back to top.
Will studying the Lemurian Philosophy upset my present beliefs?
Lemurian students often find themselves voluntarily relinquishing ideas and beliefs because they want to replace them with ones they feel will serve them better. The Fellowship assures students that they need not unwillingly surrender any concepts or beliefs in which they take comfort. Students are simply asked to hold these in abeyance until the basic truths of the Lemurian Philosophy have been given a chance to work in their lives and become meaningful and satisfying. Back to top.
How does the Lemurian Philosophy compare to other teachings?
It has always been the Fellowship’s policy to avoid comparing the Lemurian Philosophy with the teachings and beliefs of others. All philosophies, religions and beliefs have their place in human affairs, and in one way or another, each contributes to man’s egoic unfoldment. Some are more reflective of universal truth, but who can say that any one is the only truth or path to spiritual development?
Throughout the course of our ongoing, we gravitate toward that which brings the greatest solace, comfort, inspiration, and spiritual upliftment, at one moment, clinging to cherished beliefs, and in the next, casting them aside to reach upward to grasp new ones. What may fill an urge to be universally secure today, may not do so tomorrow.
The Fellowship knows it is cosmically wrong to interfere with this egoic struggle toward at-one-ment with God. But to offer greater purpose and new concepts of life and action at a time one is reaching out for higher truths and more permanent values is another matter.
To set forth its purpose and precepts clearly and concisely is one of the Fellowship's greatest responsibilities to the Lemurian Brotherhood and to those whose quest for truth has brought them to the threshold of the Lemurian Philosophy. Back to top.
What makes the Lemurian Fellowship approach unique?
Many turn to self-help books and find interesting ideas, but beyond a certain
point, applying these ideas becomes confusing. Guidance is needed. Lemurian
students have the unique opportunity to respond to questionnaires with each
lesson and to receive comments from experienced teachers in a proven system of
help.
When an individual enrolls for the purpose of studying the Lemurian Philosophy, teachers work closely with the student as long as he or she remains actively engaged in the study of the Lemurian Philosophy. The growing rapport between teachers and student is generally found to add measurably to what an individual might gain from the material alone. Back to top.
How can I verify the authenticity of the Lemurian Philosophy?
The Philosophy stresses the importance of developing one's mind and each student is encouraged to use his or her power of reason to evaluate the Philosophy and to test Lemurian principles in daily life. By working with cosmic principles and experiencing the benefits, the student gains confidence in the truth of the Philosophy and need not accept it on faith alone. A reasoning faith in the truth and value of the Lemurian teachings naturally evolves for many students. Back to top.
Are there groups of Lemurian students following the Plan of the Lemurian Brotherhood?
Yes. A nucleus was established on Lemurian Fellowship property in the 1950’s. The group consists of members of the Lemurian Order, the only student organization sponsored or recognized by the Fellowship. Back to top.
Does Lemurian Order membership require that I change my residence?
No. Students of the Lemurian Philosophy and members of the Lemurian Order may participate in the Lemurian Program regardless of where they may live. Back to top.
