THE TRADITION OF THE SONS OF THE SUN

From the beginning of times, the "Sons of the Sun" or "Sons of the sky" have been on Earth. From China to the Andes, while passing by Pharaonic Egypt, it is these children of the light who built all of the most beautiful civilizations.

Fundamentally, all people are children of light. A Son of the Sun is a man who has passed certain tests through initiations to reactualize an inner potential, transmit it and awaken it in others. By his own consciousness, he radiates an aura, an energetic field of life which has the capacity to wake up the subtle consciousness and centers in Man. Those who are touched and who answer the call create a School around him so that the invisible can become visible and live among us. To resonate with such a School which is part of a heritage of light and to accept its presence in oneself, is to wake up the divine essence, the best in oneself which slumbers inside all matter, all substance, all creation. It is the duty of man to reveal this divine essence and to open the way for its blossoming.

Olivier Manitara teaches us that from these seven Sons of the Sun, four already came: Rudolf Steiner, Peter Deunov, Babaji, Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov. He is the fifth and after him two others must be incarnated. These next two will be the reincarnation of Master Aivanhov who will prepare the final advent of the Master Peter Deunov who will express the Spirit of Truth. In this collective work, Rudolf Steiner had not reached the initiation of the Sons of the Sun, but its bond with the Archangel Michael enabled him to achieve splendid work and to bring a beautiful light to enrich this tradition, this family of souls. To achieve this initiation, the Master Peter Deunov isolated himself during three weeks in a cave located in the mountains of Moussala. During these three weeks of retreat he was very active, notably composing esoteric music to elevate humans in the light and instituting the many bases of his School. It is on the bedrock of these solid foundations that the Master Aivanhov later created his own School.

After the three weeks passed, Master Deunov went to the top of Moussala where he was connected to the sun during three days of ardent prayer and purity.

To achieve this initiation, he was guided by his own intuition, by the inner light which inspired him. He was not really conscious of what he did, he did not know that he opened the gateway to the sun and that a line of Masters was going to walk in his steps so that the light could continue to shine upon humanity. Nevertheless, he had the strength to listen to this inner voice and put it into action to triumph over doubt. Then the light awoke in him and led him on the way. As for Babaji, he lived in a very spiritual atmosphere because India is the country of Masters and Gods. In this atmosphere, he understood that he ought to unite with the sun and to make it live within him during three weeks of meditation. Then he went reflecting on the three sources of Ganges over the course of three days. He could accomplish this because he had the faculty to leave his body consciously and so could he go to these sacred places to receive the blessing of the sun and to form its body in him. The sun revealed to him the creative power of the spirit in the matter. It showed him the fertilizing aspect of the spirit in a circulation of energy and life creating the world and generating the sons of God or sons of the devil.

While he was in France, Master Omraam Michael Aivanhov met a clairvoyant, Judith Henri. She assured him that he was intended to be a Son of the Sun and that he was related to the archangel Michael. Master Aivanhov was impressed by this clairvoyant because she said many things to him that he knew to be true. She in particular revealed to him that he would become a Son of the Sun once he would be in solitude in the Pyrenees. This is why the Master bought a piece of land in Trassoulas and built a country cottage with the objective of developing the body of the Sun and becoming his son. He again met this clairvoyant who told him to remain in complete isolation for three weeks. It is what the Master did. He fasted and went for great walks in the forest of the "Step of the bear". Then he left to the mountains with his backpack for three days and it is there that he was initiated with the three phases of the sun: raising sun, sun in full midday and setting sun. He understood the mystery of childbirth, the mysteries of above and below and the two worlds in personality and individuality. It is during these three days in the forest and the mountains that he received his initiation to become a Son of the Sun.

Olivier Manitara also went to this area. For seven months, he remained in silence and absolute isolation in the mountains located close to the castle of Montsegur. He was 22 years old. Only several years after this experiment he also passed the initiation and became a Son of the Sun in this divine line which goes back to Enoch and whose most beautiful pearls are Zoroaster, Hermes Trismegiste, Buddha, Jesus, Mani... Before that, he created a School of God where he taught for several years. In 2003, within this School, he concluded an Alliance of Light with the four Archangels who carry the four letters of the Name of God who must be sanctified, thus carrying out the word of Christ: "When two or three meet in my Name, I will come and I will stand among them". He celebrates with his pupils these four archangels throughout the year and, with the image of the Virgin Mary, he institutes a temple of the permanent presence of the archangel Gabriel in a valley. It is in this very valley, at the foot of a sacred mountain that he withdrew and remained for three weeks in complete isolation, in prayer and meditation. Then he entered the Temple of the Sun where he remained for three days in order to receive the seeding of the spirit. During the four following days (seven days in total), the sun formed a new body in him. This development, which for him was a personal one at first, Olivier Manitara decided to make it possible to his pupils within the framework of this School of the mysteries; and all became clear to them. Hope can reappear in the hearts because the light is more than ever at work on the Earth. The Golden age announced by the prophets was carried out as a seed which is now planted in the ground and achieves its work of germination. At the right time, it will appear in the light of day and yield the tastiest fruits which awaken all that is divine in Man.

May those feeling in their heart the truth of this sacred teaching join in this new spirit for a new life, may they come to build this School of God.
