W BlightonFew people can be called Adepts. There are master teachers, mystics, healers, and gurus, but the Adept is a special class of spiritual master that combines the skills and qualifications of these and supersedes them all. Father Paul was an Adept. Acknwledged by some of the leading spiritual teachers of his day, including Murshid Samuel Lewis, Theosophist Joe Miller, and Satguru Subramuniyaswami, Dr. Earl W. Blighton, known as Father Paul, was widely regarded as a leader in the burgeoning spiritual movement of the 1960s. His favorite saying was By their fruits ye shall know them. As founder of the Holy Order of MANS, a group that epitomized Christian Mysticism and the Occult Philosophies of Rosicrucianism and Theosophy, Father Paul proved that he could indeed produce fruits. He did it by teaching from his heart, by which he attracted scores of young people who then mirrored what he taught in their lives.In five years, the Holy Order of MANS had three thousand members and Brother houses on two continents. Father Paul showed how spiritual development could be accomplished not in decades but in a few short years. When people tried to put him up on a pedestal, he would always say, Look to the Master Jesus and you will never go wrong. Read More Read Less
