The ORDER of NAZOREAN ESSENES  is a modern resurrection of the ancient Nasaraean and Manichaean sects of Gnostic Chrisitinity, and of the pre-Buddhist faith of Central Asia.. We are a small esoteric School organized into three different Levels - the  "Listeners", the "Elect", and the "Elect of Elect".

We teach that Yeshu (Jesus) the Messiah was born into our northern Nazorean branch of Essenes - as it is written: "He shall be called a Nasorene!"(Matthew 2:23). We teach that Miryai (Mary Magdalene) later joined Him from the Jewish faith to become His equal: "To the Jewish Temple I would not go, but my way bore me onto the Nazorean Temple. I went and I found my brothers and sisters, how they stand and praise."(Mandaean Book of  John) We teach that Mani, the great 3rd century Gnostic Apostle and reincarnation of the "Buddha", followed Them and added further "Buddhist" and "Zarathustrian" elements to Their message.
