The
Confraternity of the Rose Cross (CR C) is a
neo-
Rosicrucian
organization founded by former
AMORC Imperator Gary L. Stewart in
1996.
It is active in the
USA,
United Kingdom,
Brazil,
Australia and other
countries.
The CR C uses the earliest version of the
Rosicrucian Monographs as written by
H. Spencer Lewis and which were issued by AMORC from 1915 to 1939.
These monographs were designed to be read out in lodge meetings.
They are said to have a more 'esoteric' feel than the updated
monographs used by AMORC after Lewis died in 1939.
Imperator
Stewart often includes commentaries and, on occasion, additional
monographs written by himself. According to Stewart, these earlier
monographs preserve unique philosophical and spiritual
contributions of AMORC's founder,
Harvey Spencer
Lewis, many of which had been edited out of the AMORC
monographs during various revisions and rewriting exercises which
commenced from the time of HS Lewis' death through the long reign
of his son Ralph M Lewis.
Gary L. Stewart has also founded the
Order Militia Crucifera
Evangelica and the British Martinist Order.
