PURPOSES OF BSRF: This is non-profit organization of people who take an active interest in unusual happenings along the borderland between the visible and invisible worlds. In the words of the late Meade Layne, founder and director of BSRA from 1946 to 1959: "BSRA publications are scientific in approach but employ few technical expressions. They deal with significant phenomena which orthodox science cannot or will not investigate. For example: The Fortean falls of objects from the sky, Telepor- tation, Radiesthesia, PK effects, Underground Races, Mysterious Disappearances, Occult and Psychic Phenomena, Photography of the Invisible, Nature of the Ethers and the problem of the Aeroforms (Flying Saucers). In the year 1946 BSRA obtained an interpretation of the phenomena which since has come to be known as the Etheric or 4-D interpretation, and which has not been radically altered since that time. This continues to be the only explanation which makes good science, sound metaphysics and common sense." The chief present concern of the Foundation is to make this kind of unusual information available as a public service at reasonable cost. Headquarters acts as a receiving, coordinating and distributing center. An important part of the Director's work is to give recog nition, understanding and encouragement to people who are having unusual experiences of the borderland type and/or are conducting research in any of the above fields. For consultation on borderland problems, or for Spiritual healing through prayer, write or phone 714-72^-2043 for help or for an appointment. Donations and bequests toward Foundation research programs and expenses ate welcome. The 24-page list of BSRF publications is available from Headquarters for 50c in coin or stamps. This includes mimeo brochures on border land subjects, tape recordings of Mr. Crabb's lectures and of mem bers of the Inner Circle, talking through trance-medium Mark Pro- bert.

Louis Jacolliot came to that belief during his studies of Hinduism in India, from Chapter 10, "Occult Science In India" The Election of the Brahmatma (High Priest) "The requisite qualifications for the position were that the candidate should have been initiated, that he should have taken the vow of chastity, and that he should be a member of the Supreme Council. "That this vow was a serious matter will be readily understood when it is known that any Brahmin taking it in the commencement of his career must necessarily persevere until he arrives at the dig nity of a Yoguy, unless he wishes to repeat upon earth a series of transformations (reincarnations). Not having paid the debt of his ancestors, by the birth of a son, who can continue his genealogical line and officiate at his funeral, he would be obliged to come back after death, under a new human envelope, to accomplish that final duty." This is a rather startling view of High Priest obligations which has received little publicity in the West in popularized versions of Yoga disciplines, and we can thank the French legal- beagle, Jacolliot, for bringing it to our attention! "The Yoguys, or members of the Council of Seventy, by reason of their high degree of sanctity, had no new transmigrations to under go: it was a matter of indifference whether they had been heads of families or whether they had always maintained their chastity. But in view of the small number admitted into this sanhedrin, if we may so call it, the Brahmin who should pronounce this terrible vow, as it is termed in the book of the Pitris, at the close of his noviti ate, was in danger of having to go through a succession of new lives, from the first monad, by which the smallest particle of moss is an imated, to man, who is, so far, the most perfect expression of the vital form." Louis learned that the Brahmin priesthood has a rigid structure of Three Degrees. The young neophyte enters on his training at 20, takes his First Initiation at 40, his Second at 60, and his Third at the ripe old age of 80 -- if he lives that long! "While the Brahmatma could only be chosen from among those Yoguys who had taken the vow of chastity, his election was not due to any Nov-Dee 1972 RR, Page 1 supposed degree of sanctity on his part resulting therefrom; for he had hardly been elected when, notwithstanding his advanced age of eighty years, in order that his election might be held valid, he had to furnish evidence of his virile power in connection with one of the virgins of the Pagoda, who was given him as a bride. "If a male child sprang from this union the babe was placed in a wicker basket and turned adrift upon the river to float with the current. If perchance he was washed ashore he was carried to the temple where he was at once, and by virtue of that very fact, regarded as having been initiated into the third degree. From his earliest childhood all the secret mentrams, or formulas of evoca tion, were made known to him. "If, however, the child floated down the stream with the cur rent, he was reJected as a Pariah, and handed over to the people of that caste to be reared by them. "We never could discover the origin of this singular custom. Upon comparing other ancient usages with the manners and customs of the sacerdotal castes in Egypt, which are so similar in many respects to those of the Indian temples, we have often asked our selves the following questions, which we now propound for the read er's consideration: THE PROBLEM OR MYSTERY OF MOSES'S BIRTH "Might not Moses, the leader of the Hebraic revolution, have been a son of the Egyptian high priest, who stood at the head of the order of the initiated, and might he not have been brought to the temple, because he had been cast ashore by the Nile? "Might not his brother Aaron, on the contrary, have been cast aside as one of the servile class, because when he was set adrift likewise upon the river he floated along with the current without being cast ashore? "May we not regard the friendship of the two brothers for each other, when informed subsequently of their common origin, as one of the causes that impelled Moses to abandon the sacerdotal caste, of which he was a member, in order to place himself at the head of the Egyptian slaves, and lead them into the desert in search of that promised land which the pariahs, helots, and outcasts of every degree have always looked forward to in their dreams as the sunny land of peace and liberty? "We suggest the question however, we repeat, merely as a sup position. Perhaps ethnographic science, by which the second half of the present (19th) Century has been so brilliantly illustrated, will show some day, that it is something more." Jacolliot's book "Occult Science In India" is published at $5.95 by University Books, New Hyde Park, New York 11040. We have drawn heavily on it to illustrate the Way of the Faqueer in our new Lesson Eight on the Kabala, "The Four Ways To Freedom". $2.00.
