READ A TOUCHING OVERVIEW OF OUR STORY

 
July 4, 1922 – Jim Baker was born in Cincinnati.  Raised by his mother Cora Baker.

Mid 1945 – A parade in Cincinnati for Jim Baker, celebrated hero of World War II.  He opened Baker’s Gym of body building, judo and martial arts expert, archery and swimming champion.

1951 – Jim Baker becomes a Vedanta monk for 6 months in Los Angeles (LA).  He also explores all religions and spiritual outlets and books with his wife Elaine Baker. They open the Aware Inn on Sunset Blvd., the nation’s first organic, gourmet restaurant.  They opened up their second successful restaurant down the street called the Old World.  Jim marries Dora Jagla, from France, who began to open his awareness of the hip movement.

April 1, 1969 – The Source Restaurant was created – based on the teachings in “the Essene Gospel of Jesus Christ”– by Jim Baker, Tuesday at 11:00 am, at 8301 Sunset Boulevard, in Hollywood.  Dora designs the Source, famous daisy flower logo.  Dora and Jim shortly divorce.

May, 1969 – Jim Baker met Yogi Bhajan – his first true “Spiritual Father”.

May, 1970 – Jim and Robin were married by Ann Davies, one of the founders and the “High Priestess” of the “Builders of the Adytum”, and they went to Hawaii on their honeymoon. When they returned, he held his first meditation class at the Source and – after that class – Damian and Hom began to call him “Father”.

Pre-Family – people were living in vans behind the Source and in apartments around Hollywood, while working at the Source, before we lived communally.

Late summer, ‘71 – Jim went to India with Yogi Bhajan. When he returned, he found that the Source – which had been struggling – had been pulled out of the red by Damian (whom he had left as manager) and the small beginning group of Source Family members.    Father ended up giving Damian a van for saving the Source.  He asked him how he did it and Damian said  “I just did what you told me to Father, I used your wisdom”  Father was becoming aware that he would be moving from the Yogi’s vibration into a higher, “Aquarian vibration”.  Everyone who was “now” working the Source were committed Brotherhood members.

March, ‘72 – The Family moved into the Mother House, their first communal home after Father kicked out some of the workers at the Source who were suspected of theft.

Those who stayed were the foundation of “The Brotherhood of the Source” and they would live communally and run the Source. Makushla joined the Family and soon was invited to live with Father. Before long, she was his main woman and he eventually called her his mother/angel.  Different Family councils were formed and Father began to take on several other wives.  “Spiritual law preceded man’s law” !

April 8, ‘72 – Sol Ammon was born – the first child born of the “Brotherhood”.

December 4, ‘72 – Father was taken to jail for interfering with the arrest of one of the underage women who might have been a run away.  Father said “if you take my daughter you will have to take me”, so they did.  This was shortly cleared up as she did have permission from her parents.
 
March, ‘73 – The Family moved into the Father house and – for the first time – Father left the room above the Source and lived with us.
