	NICHOLAS ROERICH, the New Age Prophet of Our Times Dear Friends, To me, opening a topic on Nicholas Roerich in my GREAT ART OF THE WORLD forum was like a discovery travel. I now find it unbelievable that I suddenly decided to feature him just after seeing his famous painting Kalki Avatar as if by chance, and that I then tried to learn all I could about someone who appeared to be interested in this and other saintly characters of the New Age such as Maitreya and El Maddhi - as I myself has been for long now. But if I at all did this was because it was his artistic facet that I was mainly interested in in order to put together a new and decent thread in that forum, and nothing else - at least at first. In effect, it was so obvious that I knew very little about Nicholas Roerich in the beginning – only the info that you would usually gather about an artist and, perhaps, a philosopher and public figure as were in seeming his most visible activities - and that only later did I begin to discover his other, more transcendental facets as a true Renaissance man: a mystic, a writer,the founder of countless institutions and a traveller and organizer of major expeditions to Central Asia, such as the “Manchurian Expedition” … Little did I suspect, however, that the object of such expeditions could be to find the enigmatic lost city of Shambala in the heart of Asia, and that by that time he had already co-founded the Agni-Yoga Society with his wife, a theosophist, and that he himself had become a theosophist and the channeler of the Ascended Master El Morya, a major avatar in the pantheon of Theosophy… Least of all, that Nicholas Roerich himself would be recognised after his demise in 1947 in Kullu, India, as an Ascended Master in the Ancient Wisdom by Theosophists and New Age people alike. On the other hand, I was not completely deprived of insight into his deepest interests, since from the start I perceived a New Age forerunner of sorts. However, it was as if Nicholas Roerich’s perhaps most transcendental and enigmatic features had all been kept secret from me only to be disclosed, little by little, later on. Can you imagine, for example, that long before his death he reportedly was behind the adoption of the“All Seeing Eye” in the one dollar bill by the US government? You may take a look at an article about that fascinating episode in the history of the United States of America here. But to have written and posted a short article myself about the “All Seeing Eye” mainly based on it, in Sept 9 of 2010, long before I started this thread in Dec 12 of 2010, and have missed precisely that point … that certainly is unforgivable. (By the way, you may see my own short article here.) And like these, many other traits. Below I give a short list of pages where you can find a lot of info about Nicholas Roerich. For example, apart from a good biography on Wikimedia, the one listed at the end is especially good. The page El Morya in Prophecy, the New Era and the Age of Maitreya offers “channelled” messages by N. Roerich himself. The All-Seeing Eye, The President, The Secretary and The Guru (see mainly “Wallace's Occult Connections” in this page) El Morya in Prophecy, the New Era and the Age of Maitreya Ascended Master Nicholas Roerich Biography of Nicholas Roerich _______________ NOTE: View HERE the first of a series of pictorial highlights from the inmense store of Nicholas Roerich's masterworks. Here is but a sample of what you will be seeing. Nicholas Roerich - Dawn. Unfinished (tempera on canvas, c. 1930) Love and Blessings, Luis Miguel Goitizolo

	Luis, Unfinished or not this is a beautiful image of peace and mystery. The colours are glorious. I found your links very interesting. I'm sorry that I don't get here frequently. Roger
	Look and listen and then some more. The answers are there if we search with a clear mind.
