The 100th and 150th year anniversaries of Dr. Walter Russell’s illumination and unfolding. May 19th, 1871, Walter Bowman Russell was born into the world.  His life was an extraordinary example of working knowingly with God (Source, Mind, Light, Truth, Beauty, Creator).  His mastery of the five fine arts - architecture, music, painting, poetry and sculpting were unparalleled.   This May 19th, 2021, marks the 150th anniversary of Dr. Russell’s birth.  To coincide with this special day is also the 100th anniversary of the good Dr.’s full-on 39-day illumination, which began on May 13th, 1921.    Source - https://spaceweatherarchive.com/2020/05/12/the-great-geomagnetic-storm-of-may-1921/        This solar event caused numerous disruptions in telegraph and communications the world over.  Accounts of the event were also recorded historically in newspapers and magazines.  Dr. Russell wrote down his 39,000 words of inspiration, which he would later name “The Message of the Divine Iliad.”  He shared part of this message for the first time with the world in “The Secret of Light” (1947), in order that mankind, whom he believed to be on the verge of a cosmic awakening, would embrace this message of which he was commanded to give this many years after his revelatory experience in 1921.  The Message was later published in two volumes, “The Message of the Divine Iliad” (Volume One (1948) and Volume Two (1949).   Together, he and wife Lao Russell, founded the University of Science and Philosophy on Dec. 2nd, 1948, in order that through these two often ‘at odds’ vocations, the marriage of both would come to represent the possibilities of uniting mankind in furthering the moral movement began by the great poets, philosophers and authors of the Twilight Club back in the 1870’s.  This was to be an example of the unification of philosophy and science, which the Russell’s expressed would be a saving grace for mankind.  The Russell’s both saw the University of Science and Philosophy as the direct extension of the Twilight Club in order that this great moral movement would not disappear from the earth.    Matt Presti President, USP Visit www.Philosophy.org for more.
