The Lineage of King Salomon
Lineage is a key and important factor in determining the legitimacy, integrity and authority that an authentic Mystery School holds.
The lineage of the Modern Mystery School (MMS) dates back to the times of King Salomon and has therefore, over 3,000 years of history and lineage. While the mystery school tradition is much older than that, the lineage of the MMS and its teachings can be verified and traced back to the teachings of King Salomon himself.
Lineage, by definition, means a lineal descent from an ancestor, ancestry or pedigree. The Modern Mystery School has persisted through time an ancient tradition of sharing of knowledge from teacher to student, affirmed by the holy process of initiation.
The lineal and direct transfer of information in this fashion has preserved the virtue and honour of the mystery school tradition, which has held the secrets of God, the universe and keys to true spiritual power since the beginning of time. This wisdom and power is available to all who truly seek it and are willing to honour its sacred nature by walking the Path of Initiation.
All lineages have main key holders, individuals who hold and anchor the lineage on the planet and hold the authority to keep the door of the mystery school open to those who seek the Light. In this lineage, the main key holders are titled the Third Order and in union, they administer and attend to maintaining the purity of the lineage and its teachings. Learn more about each of the members of the Third Order below, as well as the team of leaders that help them administer the teachings, training and tradition of the Lineage of King Salomon.
Gudni Gudnason
Gudni Gudnason, often referred to as “Founder Gudni,” is a master metaphorical teacher who imparts metaphysical and esoteric principles using analogy, allegory, and parable. Through humour, theatrics and the sharing of fantastical tales, he shares his hidden wisdom, knowledge, methods, and tools. He uses these methods to allow students to explore their own insights and test the clarity of their discernment. The student is meant to discern a deeper meaning in the stories to question their own preconceived notions and beliefs. He reminds all students that they are their own best teacher, but only through discernment and considering alternative perspectives can one come to know what they truly know. If a tool doesn’t resonate with a student, he guides them to another, encouraging them to dive deeper into the mysteries by delving into mythos and potentialities held in our self mastery and understanding.
