It is evident from Carvalho’s exhibition photos that this collection of artifacts showcases the works of musical composers, philosophers, scientists, artists and writers whose creative activities reflect or relate to the Rosicrucian Philosophy.

Unique to Portugal, in about the same year as the founding of The Rosicrucian Fellowship, Dr. Amilcar de Souza established The Vegetarian Society of Portugal. This pioneer, according to Mr. Carvalho, has been given neither due homage nor gratitude. Furthermore, in the same theme, in 2012 it will be 100 years since the beginning of the Portuguese Society for Naturalogia. In Portugal, this exposition seizes the opportunity to recognize these proponents of a healthy vegetarian lifestyle.
More information and photos of the exhibition will be available at the PHOTOS tab as they are collected.
Delmar Domingos de Carvalho early in 2009 published his work, Paracelsus And The COSMOBIOMEDICINA, which he claims is the first biography in English about this Elder Brother. The book is dedicated to Max Heindel, the herald of the Rosicrucian Order, in observance of the centenary of the founding of the Rosicrucian Fellowship, which considered Paracelsus to be not only a Fellow but one of its Masters.
