Overview

This book is not so much a history of events, or a record of what has happened to the Order laid out in a chronological time-line, but a story of a transformation from one state to another very different state. It is a story of rebirth that exists simultaneously outside and within space-time. It exists outside of space-time, in that it concerns the invisible development and emergence of a spiritual essence taking place within the heart and mind of the Order. Yet, it clearly exists within space-time, as described in the Order's record of that emergence; not all of which is comfortable.
