In our day we are proposing the full re-establishment of the ancient Nazorean concept of  the "Shikinta" Monastic Ashram  in a lush semi-secluded area of the Pacific Northwest. In this developing "double monastery" we propose that  male and females shall  co-exist in perfect equality, and  married monks and nuns will have the freedom to raise up children according to ancient patterns of holiness established by the ancient Nazorean Temple Order called the Beni-Amin. This was the Temple Order associated with the conception and raising of Yeshu, or Jesus the Nazorean and it is our hope that by pure living and devotion we also might restore many of these ancient practices. The present task of the Bnia Amin Order, under the name of "Miryai Mountain Monastery", is to fully resurrect a modernized version of the ancient Temple Services of the Nazoreans, Manichaeans, and others, and their accompanying lifestyles. Many elements of ancient Zen monasteries will be included in this restoration, along with certain practices related to other ancient paths honored by the Order. (Gnostic coed monasteries are not celibate or Bible orientated  like their western equivalents)
