Bacon’s philosophical scheme, The Great Instauration or Six Days Work, is still not fully understood and practised in the way intended. To do so could bring enormous benefits to the world and help create a 'New Atlantis' or Golden Age.
Bacon not only headed the Rosy Cross Fraternity (Rosicrucians) but his Great Instauration is based on ancient wisdom and biblical and cabalistic principles. A study and knowledge of this is a major gateway into the true but veiled ever-living Wisdom Tradition. The aim is to discover truth.
Both Divinity and Poetry (Drama) play major roles in the Great Instauration. Shakespeare is not only an important part of this but the Shakespeare Authorship enigma was set up to train us in what Bacon calls the Art of Discovery, so that eventually we might discover and know the Author of All.
Bacon was a man of mystery and secrets, both of necessity and choice. Partly because of this, and because he had to act the role of a martyr to truth like the first St Alban before him, his name and memory have been slandered. This hurt needs to be redressed. The truth needs to be known, as does all truth.

- Bacon - dealing with history
- Shakespeare - dealing with poetry
- Hermes - dealing with philosophy
Plus a section on the Mysteries, in which Bacon and the Rosicrucians were involved, and which are still relevant today.
Plus Resources (Books, Videos, Essays, Works of Art), Events (past, present and future), FBRT Friendship (benefits, how to join, subscriptions, how to donate), and a section About Us (who we are, how to contact us, cookie and privacy policies, etc.).

Triple Shakespeare Mystery
This year the FBRT is offering three special educational events at three important 'Shakespeare' locations on the Milky Way of the British landscape zodiac, in honour and remembrance of what was achieved by the 'Gemini' brothers, Anthony and Francis Bacon, and their Rosy Cross friends.
See 'The Swan Flight along the Milky Way' for details.
Anthony and Francis Bacon acted out the myth of the Gemini, who are symbolised as Swans and Spear-shakers, and led the Shakespeare fraternity of spear-shaking 'knights of the helmet' and their ladies.
Quadruple Shakespeare Insight
Four talks on Zoom at the equinoxes and solstices are being given about this Shakespeare mystery. See Events.
