Order of Nazorean Essenes

Calendar
The Nazorean Way is characterized by a daily and weekly rhythm of spiritual events that contributes to the reshaping of ones consciousness. Nazorean communities are designed to follow both a Daily and a Weekly spiritual schedule. These practices reflect ancient patterns of daily life that were suplanted in the west when Roman Christianity did away with most Nazorean customs.
"Realizing the depth of animosity and hatred felt by early gentile Christians toward all semite customs and people, one can easily see how the early Roman church was able to supplant original Nazorean leadership and customs. By rewriting scripture and history, and by altering original customs and practices, the Roman Church was able to create a Christianity that bore only surface similarities to the original Nazarene religion taught by Yeshu-Miryai. Through centuries of careful editing and eradication of original documents and witnesses, this Roman Christianity was able to create the illusion of complete historical continuity with the early Nazarene Movement. Careful analysis of this claim, however, reveals that Roman Christianity is not the true preserver of the original tradition. The Order of Nazorean Essenes claim to be a modern restoration of the original Nazarene Essenism once supplanted by Roman influence." - Abba Yesai Nasrai, O:N:E:
The Nazorean Way also has its own unique view of history and world Chronology. An understanding of this Nazorean sense of time helps one orientate themselves to the Gnostic worldview and more properly poise themselves to worship Yeshu and Miriam and the Eternal Life They represent.
