The Essene Communions
I. THEIR PURPOSE AND MEANING
The symbolic Tree of Life enabled the Essenes to understand how they were surrounded by forces, or angels, from the visible world of nature and the invisible cosmic world. The Communions show how each of these forces is utilized in man's body and consciousness.
The Communions are said to have been originated by Esnoch, or Enoch, and were again brought forth by Moses to Esrael, the elect of the people, on the two stone tablets he first brought down from Mount Sinai. The second set of tablets he brought down contained the Ten Commandments, the outer teaching, which he gave to the rest of the people, Israel. But the small minority, Esrael, or the Essenes, from that time on, held their communions morning and evening, to the earthly and heavenly forces, regulating their lives according to the inspiration received from them.
The Communions have three immediate objectives.
The first is to make man conscious of the activities of the different forces and forms of energy which surround him and perpetually flow toward him from nature and the cosmos.
The second is to make him aware of the organs and centers within his being which can receive these currents of energy.
The third is to establish a connection between the organs and centers and their corresponding forces so as to absorb, control and utilize each current.
The Essenes knew that man has different bodily systems to absorb the different energies from food, air, water, solar radiations and so on; and they knew that each individual must control and utilize these powers for himself through his own conscious efforts, and that no one could do it for him.
The Communions were practiced each morning and evening, a different earthly force being meditated upon each morning upon arising, and a different heavenly force each evening before retiring, each day of the week. This made a total of fourteen communions during each seven day period.
At each of the Communions the designated force was concentrated upon, contemplated and meditated upon so that its power could be absorbed and consciously utilized in whatever intensity was required.
An explanation of the purpose of each Communion follows:

Prologue to the Essene Communions:
P42:
PROLOGUE TO THE COMMUNIONS
Previous to speaking the actual words of a communion, the Essene solemnly and reverently repeated the following prologue:
"I enter the Eternal and Infinite Garden with reverence to the Heavenly Father, the Earthly Mother and Great Masters, reverence to the holy, pure and saving Teaching, reverence to the Brotherhood of the Elect."
He then thought reverently about the angel or force with which he was about to commune, contemplating its meaning and purpose in his own life and body, as taught in the first part of the Communions.
Following this prologue he spoke the actual words of the Communion.
As a Modern Day Essene, Your Enchanted Gardener, I would recommend shifting the words
that do not serve you.
I personally will change
"Reverence to the Brotherhood of the Elect"
Reverence to those who are with me now
