Balance. Purpose. Enlightenment.
The highly polished mirror will not collect dust; the enlightened heart will not attract vices. –– Chinese
Remember when a manual came with your new computer or cell phone, as it does with a new car? It wasn’t that long ago. Of course today we find instructions on the internet, or buy a “for Dummies” book and find out a whole lot more than we ever suspected or even needed.
But where’s the manual for the most complicated machine of all – us? How can anyone expect us to be dropped into this complicated world, innocent and defenseless, without some kind of life manual for getting through the next hundred years or so?
A loving God doesn’t expect us to live a successful life without a life manual. Long before a child can read, talk, or even understand ideas, Lemurian parents are very familiar with their own Lemurian Life Manual and eager to pass on all they have learned to their children.
But at this early stage of the recapitulation of Lemurian culture and society, most of us don’t have the advantage of Lemurian parents. We come from all kinds of backgrounds – highly religious ones, very secular ones, and all shades in between. Most parents wing it, doing the best they can based on what their own parents did, or else trying to do everything they feel their own parents didn’t. So it’s pretty hit and miss.
All parents teach their children certain laws of life. The Law of Gravitation is so vital to understand that most of us have an inborn fear of heights to protect us. Parents try to be sure their children don’t ignore this law, because gravity is self-executing. If you break the law of gravity, even if no one catches you at it, you still reap the repercussions. And this is true for every universal, or God law. But many of these laws don’t always have an immediate effect, so people think they can violate them without consequences.
Take the Law of Compensation, for instance. In simple words, it says there’s no such thing as something for nothing. The Spanish have a proverb for this: “Take what you want, says God, and pay for it.” But people ignore this law all the time. The thief thinks if no one catches him stealing, he’s home free. But if he doesn’t pay for what he takes, Nature takes if from him, sooner or later. Or something unfortunate happens to him as the universe balances the scales.
Because so many universal laws are not well known, less understood, and often completely ignored, most people violate these laws every day. And because Nature always balances things, most people have very little control over their lives and what happens to them. The few who find the Lemurian Philosophy, though, discover that life on earth has a purpose: to advance from ignorance about ourselves and our potential to the point where we can consciously control both our environment and our destiny.
The whole reason for the Lemurian Philosophy is to guide and train us in how to reach this great goal. Our teachers are Lemurians with many years – even lifetimes – of experience using the laws and principles taught in the Lemurian lessons. Their lives are an effort to live as an example of the balance, purpose, and enlightenment possible to anyone who takes the Lemurian Life Manual to heart and uses it to become the best possible person he or she can be.

One thing that I have appreciated over the years of studying with the Fellowship, is the gentle hand that is used in the replies to our student reports. Mindful of each individual’s free will choice, this allows for the spaciousness to connect the dots of my experiences; the cause with the effect.
I wholeheartedly agree with you, Tom!
Growing up in a home with an alcoholic father and a mother who was busy trying to deal with her own life, I wasn’t given much direction in how to cope with everyday life. All through my young life I struggled with what was morally right and wrong, all the while causing much trouble and unhappiness for myself. I desperately longed for guidance, but only found more ways to escape the confusion I felt. In my early 20’s I met a friend who was a student of the Lemurian Philosophy. He would talk about things he’d learned and one day something he said just “clicked” with me and I decided I’d give this a try. As I got deeper into the studies I began to find answers to questions I’d had about life and how to live it in a way that isn’t filled with confusion, doubt and fear. What I was learning made so much sense and felt so “right”, I knew I’d finally found what I had been searching for all my life. This Philosophy has been literally been a life saver for me and I am grateful to have found it.
The title of this article is so encouraging, and having this ‘life manual’ within my hands, how I do appreciate it. When I was younger, I often stumbled along, sometimes succeeding, sometimes not so much. I didn’t have the rules of good living then, but I am fortunate to now – life hasn’t been immediately all roses – but like holding the steering wheel to my car, I have the means to direct myself down more pleasant avenues.
The self-executing laws are learned quickly because there is an immediate reaction to your actions. Catching onto the universal laws takes more time and sometimes they must be learned the “hard way” through bitter experiences.
Someone can tell you that stealing is not good, but until you connect the act of taking what is not yours with misfortune that befalls you or a person you have observed do the same thing, it won’t become part of your moral code.
The Lemurian Philosophy not only supplies you with these universal laws, it promotes the application of them in your daily life. You can gain the knowledge and wisdom of their operation without the lengthy “hard way”.
