Frater Dr. Edgar Wirt, in the Rosicrucian
Digest gave some insight into the relationship between Beissel and
other Rosicrucians by pointing out that in Europe, Beissel had been initiated
into the first of the three degree’s administered by the Order then.
Frater Wirt says,
"… in America [Beissel] had consulted and kept in touch with those near Philadelphia and elsewhere in Pennsylvania. After the other Rosicrucians had settled in Ephrata, and with Beissel’s insistence, they recognized him as a ‘Brother’, the old term for those in the second degree. He was never one of the perfecti and was excluded from the Rosicrucian councils." |
