Raymond Antoine Bernard (19 May 1923 – 10 January 2006) was a French esotericist and freemason. He was the grand master of French AMORC, a large Rosicrucian order, in Francophone countries. As part of AMORC, he founded the Renewed Order of the Temple. Following his resigning (or expulsion) from AMORC, he founded several other esoteric orders, including CIRCES and OSTI. As part of CIRCES, he was a personal advisor to the president of Cameroon, Paul Biya.
