Triumph of the Sky, 1909. Kazimir Malevich

The Question of the Wise
​By Tyler Hilton


If you are wise tell me, 
where does one truly find God? 
How does one inherit all heavenly manner? 
Is it solely through books, prayer, 
and the utterance of words? 
If you are wise tell me, 
do you truly believe such sanctified achievements
can be retrieved from the creations of other men,
or can be attained by the repetition 
of certain phrases alone? 
Are you wise or are you foolish? 
Is it not the work of God to make such things hidden? 
Have you not found in your own life

​Nothing comes from nothing. Manly Hall’s vision for the All-Seeing Eye was entirely supported by contributions from its readers who paid for their subscription with gifts made according to their means. ​Manly Hall wrote,

“This magazine is published and distributed privately to those who make possible with their financial support its publication. The magazine cannot be bought and has no fixed value. Like all of the ancient teachings which it seeks to promulgate, it has no comparative value, but the students must support it for its own intrinsic merit.”

Your donation pays for a full year of New PRS Journal excellence, including exclusive access to a subscriber content—rare unpublished articles, and new writing by experts in their fields, poetry, and book reviews. Initiation is a beginning, and an end – the initiate enters a new life as a member of a select group, but ends their old life. Nothing can be the same again. We ask you to join the PRS mission to reveal the light of ancient wisdom.

​The New Journal also needs your writing. We are presently interested in articles about these topics: Eclipse - Ghosts - Heaven
