Description:

Bacon’s philosophical scheme, The Great Instauration or Six Days Work, is still not fully understood and practised in the way intended. To do so could bring enormous benefits to the world and help create a 'New Atlantis' or Golden Age. Bacon not only headed the Rosy Cross Fraternity (Rosicrucians) but his Great Instauration is based on ancient wisdom and biblical and cabalistic principles. A study and knowledge of this is a major gateway into the true but veiled ever-living Wisdom Tradition. The aim is to discover truth. Both Divinity and Poetry (Drama) play major roles in the Great Instauration. Shakespeare is not only an important part of this but the Shakespeare Authorship enigma was set up to train us in what Bacon calls the Art of Discovery, so that eventually we might discover and know the Author of All. Bacon was a man of mystery and secrets, both of necessity and choice. Partly because of this, and because he had to act the role of a martyr to truth like the first St Alban before him, his name and memory has been slandered. This hurt needs to be redressed. The truth needs to be known, as does all truth. Welcome to this website about the philosophy, life and work of Sir Francis Bacon and the ‘Shakespeare’ Rosicrucian Fraternity—and in particular the wisdom of which they were the light-bearers, preservers and transmitters.It is this wisdom which is of particular use to us today.Titled mysteriously and uniquely as Viscount St Alban, and signing himself as Francis St Alban, Francis Bacon (1561-1626) was not only a recognised genius and man of many parts, but also, as he himself claimed, "the herald of the new age"—the new age now dawning, destined to be a golden age.Prophesied by Paracelsus as "Elias the Artist, who shall reveal many things", acclaimed by the Order Cabbalistic de la Rosecroix as the "Genius Director of the Rose Cross, Spirit of Liberty, Science and Love which must regenerate the world", referred to by Dr. John Wilkins, the first Secretary of the Royal Society, as "Francis Rosicross", and described as "the Third Plato", Bacon was, as Ben Jonson said, the centre of a mystery.Tributes to Bacon salute him as an Apollo, the Light-bearer, Day-Star and leader of the choir of Muses, the golden stream of eloquence—a concealed poet and precious gem of concealed literature who renovated Philosophy by means of Comedy and Tragedy.But there is even more than this, for the hidden Truth, brought forth by Time, has many aspects and layers, with the deepest and most fundamental wisdom underlying all.Bacon, as the herald and preparer of the way, gave us a method to discover all truth, even the greatest universal truth of all. By following the clues, we become trained in the Art of Discovery, by means of which we can discover all truth and help usher in a golden age.
