Uriel, the Divine Light

The time of the celebration of Archangel Uriel is a time of celebration for the Light.
Uriel is the light of the Father, the light of the Angels. His feast is that of all virtues, of all that is beautiful and true. He is the conclusion, the accomplishment, the perfection.
Essene wisdom is connected to the tradition of the Light. The Essenes call themselves "the Children of the Light." There is the notion of being children born from a family of souls, belonging to a tradition, to a lineage: that of the Sons of the Sun.
Jesus, Son of the Sun, said: "Father, may Your Name be hallowed." The Name of the Father is that of 4 letters: the Round of the Archangels. The Essenes are born from this round: the 1st letter is the Father; the 2nd is the Mother; the 3rd is the birth of the Light that brings into the world the Essenes, the 4th letter.
In the wisdom and teaching of the pharaohs of Egypt, the 1st letter was called "Osiris," the 2nd, "Isis," the 3rd, "Horus," and the 4th, "Pharaoh" or "the Son of the Sun," the manifestation of the living God, the Word made flesh. The Essenes surrounded Pharaoh and formed his body on earth, the body of Christ, the body of the triumphant light. Their life was devoted to making the Light live on earth through the masters, the envoys of the Father. This is why they have been called "people of priests." Many peoples were born from the Essenes, such as Israel. In fact, Israel does not designate a people at the base but rather Pharaoh, the Son of the Sun, the Christ, and thus the priests and vestals who surround him and are at his service.
Is - Man 
Ra - Sun 
El - God
Today, in the Round of the Archangels, the 1st letter is called "Michael," the 2nd, "Raphael," the 3rd, "Gabriel," and the 4th, "Uriel." Those who hallow the Name of the Father and who assemble around the luminous wisdom of the Round of the Archangels are the Essenes, the people of the Children of the Light in all peoples.
The Essenes are not orphans; they know their Father and their Mother and want to live with Them not in an abstraction, but in the reality of their daily life. This is why they unite through the 4 great celebrations of the Archangels to support each other mutually, to be stronger, to organize themselves, to make decisions, and to act for the good and the victory of the angelic light of the Father on earth.
Many beings want to live with the Father of the Light, but they have not understood that for this, one must have a body capable of receiving the Light. This body is transmitted by Pharaoh. This is why Jesus says: "Whoever eats my body and drinks my blood has divine life." Jesus is the pharaoh, the representative of the divine world who activates the body of Light in the Essene Nation.

The Essenes, Guardians of the Flame of the Father

For the Essenes, the Light is a living spirit, an intelligence, a consciousness/awareness, a body, a way of living. The Light is called "Uriel." It is a Divinity, an Archangel, an angelic presence, an incarnation through a lineage of Sons of the Sun. All the pharaohs had themselves called "Son of the Sun."
The Sun is the source of light. There is the exterior light, which illuminates the world of appearances, and there is the interior light, which makes appear the royalty of the eternal Father and of his Angels. Uriel is this interior light that balances the worlds. This light lives inside consecrated men who have become temples of the flame of Michael.
The Essenes go towards the bearer of the flame to light their own fire there. They then unite in the celebration of the 4 Archangels of the year to finally arrive at the feast of Uriel and share the angelic light, which can then enter the world and live there. It is up to men to unite to decide consciously about their future, about their future body.
The Essenes want to live consciously and by honouring the angelic light of the Father.
The inner flame of Michael can light up only inside the man who has united inside him the Father and the Mother, heaven and earth. Such a man is called "a son," and this is why the Essenes love the masters, not the dead masters who constitute their tradition, but the living and incarnate masters. Dead masters and spiritual masters are extinguished flames.
Only living and incarnate masters make the flame live. They are the victory and the resurrection of the Tradition, and thus of all the flames lit by the Father and the Mother so as to illuminate the world and to bring the warmth of love and goodness.
The one and only way to honour the memory of past masters is to honour the flame in the living master. Such are the Essenes: beings lighting their flame at the source of the fire of life and who unite in the Light to call the Angels, make their virtues live, and fecundate the world with the beautiful light of wisdom.
All Essene wisdom and all Essene art of living are founded on the knowledge and love of the Light that emanates from the flame of life of the Father.
The Essenes are the veritable guardians of the flame in the temple of the earth and of humanity. They have the merit of having safeguarded and preserved this science of the Light through the centuries. Through all epochs of humanity, they have appeared under different forms and have taken on a multitude of names but always have placed themselves at the service of the flame of the Covenant and have spread its light.
Today, through the Round of the Archangels, the Phoenix is reborn from its ashes and Essene wisdom appears in all its splendour. Through the teachings, the different meditative practices, the songs, the dances, the sacred rites and ceremonies, the initiations, the temples, the Villages, the enterprises..., it is the Light that is glorified and conveyed.
To live as an Essene is to glorify the living and angelic light and to give it a body of manifestation in the world of men.

Who Is Uriel?

"Uriel" means "Light," but not abstract, distant, unconscious, mechanical, false light. No, "Uriel" means "the light that radiates from the man who has lit the flame of the Father inside him and has been faithful to the commandments of the Father and the Mother." Then, from him radiate beneficial light and life. The man is veritably a man, an Essene; he can say: "Whoever sees me sees the Father." Yes, whoever sees me sees the Father of goodness, of love, of justice, of wisdom... The man becomes the incarnation of a higher light.
Uriel is the light of the man who has lit inside him the flame of the Father at the source of fire, not the fire of men, but the divine, sacred, eternal fire.
This fire, the Essenes light it consciously at the feast of Archangel Michael, at the autumn equinox. Then, all year long, they accompany it through the celebration of the Round of the Archangels to arrive at the goal: the celebration of Uriel, the victory of the Light inside man, which can then spread over all the earth.
Uriel is the Father of the true light and the living soul that bathes, nourishes, and carries the Essene Nation.

Uriel and Lucifer, the 2 Faces of Light

The Essenes are carried by a common soul, which is that of the angelic light of the Father. They are the servants and guardians of this soul, its bearers on earth. Men who are not initiated into Essene wisdom, culture, and sensitivity have difficulty understanding such subtlety. They think that the Light is everywhere and offers itself to all without distinction. This is true for the light of the exterior sun, but not for that of the interior sun. Life is inside man, but man can ignore it or make it grow in beauty. He can also conduct it towards ugliness. Then the Sun will encounter ugliness, for man will have consecrated the life that is inside him to glorify ugliness. He will not have done it on purpose, but through ignorance, by letting himself be carried by the soul and culture of his people and of his king.
The light of Uriel passes through the masters, for they have made the flame and the Light inside them conscious and alive. They have made the Sun rise, and its light illuminates and vivifies the world, not in ugliness, but in the splendour and beauty of the Father.
The one who lives in ugliness cannot imagine that another way of living, that another world are possible. For man is like the Snail: he transports the world in which he lives everywhere with him. He thinks that he leaves his mother house, when in reality, he carries his house on his back. Pharaoh is called "the Great House" because he is the soul of a people, of a way of being in the world reflecting a higher, divine intelligence.
Men do not naturally go towards Archangel Uriel because they are not born into a tradition of the Light. The light and the soul that govern the world of man are those of Lucifer, the fallen archangel of the other light, that of deceptive appearances, that of the thief of light.
To go towards the other light, that of the Father, one must quite often be disillusioned. The interior light demands awakened consciousness/awareness and the will to surpass oneself.
If since the origin of time, the Essenes have built temples, lodges, sacred places in which the mysteries of the Light could be celebrated and transmitted, it is not by chance. They wanted to preserve the flame mysteriously appeared inside man so that it would not go out. They understood that it was the treasure, the precious thing, the source of all, but also that it was fragile, for it came from another world. For it to be able to appear on earth, it needed a place, a sanctuary, a protection. This sanctuary was man. For man to be able to arrive at this perfection, he had to fulfill several conditions. Thus was born the science of fire and of illumination.
Thus, the great Archangel Uriel, one of the eternal faces of the Father, was able to approach consecrated men who became his body on earth. These men have been called "the Essenes"; in Hebrew, they were called ischim, the inflamed ones of God, the initiates. The others gave a body to the light of Lucifer, who then made appear the glory of man, but not that of the Father.
Keeping the Light is not the only goal of the Essenes; they also want to transmit it to those who have made themselves apt to receive it and to make it live. This is why we speak of an Essene tradition and of a path of immortality.
Uriel is the Archangel who enables the Essenes to acquire this body of Light and of immortality. He is the humanity of Light living around the incarnate king of the Light. In perfection, Archangel Uriel reveals himself, shows himself to the eyes of the pure, of the faithful through the appearance of a master like Jesus, or closer to us, like Peter Deunov.
The Christ in glory is the victory of Uriel in the reality of the world of men.
The Christ is the mage, the Essene in his acting aspect of the Light that triumphs over obscurity.
The crucified Christ is the victory of Lucifer, the deceptive light that has hidden from man the true secret of beauty and that makes him believe that ugliness is great and right.
Yes, Uriel is very close to man, to his acts, to his daily life. He is the almost concrete Light that emanates from man, animates his life, and writes his destiny.
The Archangels Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel have a much more subtle aspect in their relationships with the Essenes. Uriel, he is very close. He loves the man who makes the Light live inside him right into his acts, into his daily life, into concrete works.
Uriel is the one who carries the thought, the word/speech, and the act of Light through the organism of man, his life, and the soul of the people to which he belongs. If man is not connected to Uriel, then he does not belong to the true light. It is as simple as that.
Of course, there are nuances, for there is a path for each one. But from another point of view, if you light the flame, you are in the light, and if you do not light it, you are in the darkness. The rest is only philosophy, justification, or psychology, even "spiritual."
Someone says: "But I am in the Light since I see!" Yes, but you can live in the lie while believing you are in the truth; such is the illusion of the spiritual world. What protects from this illusion is common sense and the physical body, the reality of its laws, the wisdom of living nature.
The spiritual world is illusion, and to traverse it, one needs a body capable of capturing the authentic light and of implementing it. Such are the secrets of Uriel and of the alliance of the Essenes with him.

How to Approach Uriel

Uriel loves what is concrete and he asks man to awaken the veritable light and not the blind belief in a deceptive spiritual world.
Uriel loves for man to have his feet on the ground, for him to master his thought following the eternal teaching of Essene wisdom. Thought is the invisible inside man. The one who masters his thought by uniting it with the holy Scripture of the Teaching can enter the world of Archangel Michael, the Father of fire.
Uriel loves the one who masters his breath of life, his states of soul, who knows how to discern what is positive and what is negative, what belongs to him and what does not belong to him, what is useful and what is harmful, and who then knows how to put each thing in its place so that order, harmony appear and reign.
Man must take what he needs and leave what he cannot use to the other. He must not burden himself with the useless nor deprive another of what enables him to advance and to serve the Father. The one who acquires this mastery can approach the world of Raphael during the celebration of the Round of the Archangels.
Uriel loves the one who has opened his heart to God, the Father-Mother, and who is determined and capable of taking his life in hand to give birth to the Light on his path of destiny. This is the maternal side of the bride of God, of the Mother of God in the world of men. The one who is truly capable of going to the end of what he believes to be true is like a mother who has received a seed, has made a body of it, and who fecundates the vast and great world with this body. The mother takes care of this body and nourishes it so that it grows and lives in wisdom in a world. Taking care of the seed of truth and giving it a body so as to live with it as one wants to live is the mastery that enables one to approach Archangel Gabriel.
In general, these 3 worlds—thought, breath of soul, creative will—live in an unconscious and invisible way inside man. It is an extinguished light, for man is blinded by the light of the exterior world and he sees only it.
Uriel is the one who makes these 3 worlds appear through the conscious and acting act of man: either man is a being of Light, or he is not, for it is the fruit of his life, the mirror of his daily life that says so.
Thus, to approach Uriel, one must have worked the 3 other Archangels and have made them a body inside oneself. Uriel is the closest to man, the one who knows man best and yet, he is the most distant, the most difficult to reach, for to approach him, one must be ready and have mastered the activity of all one's subtle bodies.
The one who approaches Uriel is an Essene, a priest, a mage, a Christ, a being who masters his thought, the breath of his life, and who is determined to take his life in hand.
Uriel will show you what you are in your entirety. If you are pure, he will open the door for you and enable you to begin the work on yourself. If you are not pure, then the door will remain closed and you will remain in the world of man and in its illusions.
Uriel is the higher, eternal, and divine principle of man. When he approaches man, he makes appear to man what he is.
I am happy to have been able to speak to the Essenes about the mysteries of our Father Uriel during our annual celebration of the summer solstice so that each one of us can approach him consciously and celebrate his presence and his feast with joy, purity, and happiness.
