Since the remote past the Balkans have been a center of spiritual
life. Millenniums before Christ when a great part of mankind lived
in a profound ignorance, in that region of the world a bright light
broke out, which pointed at a new way of development for mankind.
In the sacred bosom of the Rila and the Rhodope mountains a mystical center has been created - the Orphean school. That representative of
mankind's brightest geniuses was born and brought up in Thrace, close
to its majestic and virgin nature. He was a great man of wisdom,
initiated into the mysteries of Egypt, mastering the supreme knowledge
and the magic laws of music. Orpheus created a mystical tradition, a
mystical school which became the center of a new culture and gave a
new impetus to the white race. The Ancient Greek considered Thrace
(the Southern part of Bulgaria) as a country of light and fatherland
of the muses. It's right there, close to the high Rila and Rhodope
summits, where was situated the sanctuary of Orpheus and where were
taught Sacred Art, poetry, music, and where were proclaimed the great
laws of life.
Later on the Balkans became for the second time the seat of cultural
radiance. More than thousand years ago Bulgaria gave rise to a movement
with international importance - the Bogomil movement. Its followers were
bearers of the real Christ's doctrine. They proclaimed the simple, pure
and saintly life, based on love, fraternity and equality among people.
The Bogomils were bearers of new ideas with international significance.
Their movement had not only spiritual character, it also fought for
considerable social reforms in the dark period of the Middle Ages.
In the beginning of the 20th Century a long cycle of a number of cultures in descent and alienation from the Great
Center of Reason
came to an end. This cycle had attained its utmost point and had to
make a turn, to give a twist to the wheel of life and to start along
the new way upwards - toward the great source of harmony. It's in
such important moment that Petar Danov the Master came amongst
Bulgarian people. He brought the necessary working methods, which
would help to walk the way and to build up the new culture. Bulgaria
became once again the source of a doctrine with international
significance - the doctrine of Love. Nowadays Love entered as a new
power in human souls. So far it manifested itself occasionally, now
it has to become a guiding principle. Love will organize one's inner
and outer life and will create new types of relationships of fraternity
and unity.
About two thousand years ago Jesus Christ said:
"In those days the moon will become dark, the sun won't pour its
light and the stars will fall down".
Nowadays mankind is passing through the fire of sufferings, which
represent an initiation, a preparation to understand the Truth. Our
contemporaries are thirsty for Wisdom and Love. They have within
their reach a source of crystal purity, a source of ideas - Petar
Danov's doctrine. They can bend over and drink or … pass by
cursing or cooking up excuses.
God gave us free choice, but he will take us to task also.
And he will be most strict with Bulgarian people because
our most important spiritual task is to spread the new ideas
over the world.
