"That same year, 1782, the headquarters of Illuminated Freemasonry
moved to Frankfort, a center controlled by the Rothschild family. It is
reported that in Frankfurt, Jews for the first time were admitted to the order
of Freemasons. If indeed members of the Rothschild family or their close
associates were polluted by the occultism of Weishaupt's Illuminated
Freemasonry, we may have discovered the link between the occult and the world
of high finance. Remember, the Rothschilds financed Cecil Rhodes in Africa;
Lord Rothschild was a member of the inner circle of Rhodes's English Round
Tables; and Paul Warburg, architect of the Federal Reserve System, was a
Rothschild agent."
The aim of ALL Secret Societies is: "...as a whole was, is and will
always be the struggle against the Church and the Christian religion, and the
struggle of those who have not against those who have...All secret societies
have almost analogous initiations, from the Egyptian to the Illuminati, and
most of them form a chain and give rise to others." (Les Setes et Sociétés Secrètes, Le Couteulx de Canteleu, 1863).
"Kether - 1. I (Christian Rosenkreutz) a member
of the body of Christ, do this day spiritually bind myself even as I am now
bound physically to the Cross of Suffering.
Chokmah - 2. That I will, to the utmost, lead a pure
and unselfish life, and will prove myself a faithful and devoted servant of the
Order.
Binah - 3. That I will keep all things connected with
this Order and its secret knowledge from the whole world, equally from him who
is a member of the First Order of the Stella Matutina as from an uninitiated
person, and I will maintain the veil of strict secrecy between the First and
Second Orders.
Chesed - 4. That I will uphold to the utmost the
authority of the Chiefs of the Order; that I will not initiate or advance any
person in the First Order, either secretly or in open Temple, without due
authorization and permission. That I will neither recommend a candidate for
admission to the First Order without due judgment and assurance that he or she
is worthy of so great a confidence and honor, nor unduly press any person to
become a candidate; and that I will superintend any examinations of members of
lower grades without fear or favor in any way, so that our high standard of
knowledge be not lowered by my instrumentality; and I further undertake to see
that the necessary interval of time between the grades of Practices and
Philosophies and between the latter grade and the Second Order is properly
maintained.
Geburah - 5. Furthermore, that I will perform all
practical work connected with this Order in a place concealed and apart from
the gaze of the outer and uninitiated world, and that I will not display our
magical implements, nor reveal the use of the same, but that I will keep secret
this inner Rosicrucian knowledge, even as the same has been kept secret through
the ages. That I will not make any symbol, or talisman, in the flashing colors
for an uninitiated person without a special permission from the Chiefs of the
Order (Today these Chiefs are known as The Learned Elders of Zion); that I will
only perform any practical magic before the uninitiated which is of a simple
and already well-known nature; and that I will show them no secret mode of
working whatsoever, keeping strictly concealed from our modes of Tarot and
other divination of clairvoyance, of astral projection, of the consecration of
talismans and symbols, and the rituals of the Pentagram and Hexagram, etc.; and
most especially of the use and attribution of the flashing colors, and the
vibratory mode of pronouncing the Divine names (Cabalistic and Jewish).
Tiphereth - 6. I further promise and swear that, with
the Divine permission, I will from this day forward apply myself to the Great
Work, which is so to purify and exalt my spiritual nature, that with the divine
aid I may at length attain to be more than human (defied), and thus gradually
raise and unite myself to my higher and divine genius, and that in this event I
will not abuse the great power entrusted to me (raising the kundalini and
uniting it with the universal ether and so linking with the masters).
Netzach - 7. I furthermore solemnly pledge myself
never to work at any important symbol without first invoking the Highest Divine
names (cabalistic) connected therewith, and especially not to debase my
knowledge of practical magic to purposes of evil and self-seeking and low
material gain and pleasure, and if I do this, notwithstanding this mine oath, I
invoke the Avenging Angel that the evil and material may react on me.
Hod - 8. I further promise always to support the
admission of both sexes to our Order on a perfect equality, and that I will
always display brotherly love and forbearance towards the members of the whole
Order, neither slandering nor evil-speaking, nor tale-bearing, nor repeating
from one member to another, whereby strife and ill-feeling may be engendered.
(This is invariably broken).
Yesod - 9. I also undertake to work unassisted at the
subjects prescribed for study in the various practical grades, from Zelator
Adeptus Minor to Adept Adeptus Minor, on pain of being degraded in rank to that
of the Lord of the Paths in the Portal of the Vault only.
Malkuth - 10. Finally, if in my travels I should meet
a stranger who professes to be a member of the Rosicrucian Order, I will
examine him with care before acknowledging him to be so. Such are the words of
this my obligation as an Adeptus Minor, whereunto I pledge myself in the
presence of the Divine One I.A.O. and of the Great Avenging Angel Hua, and if I
fail herein may my Rose be disintegrated and destroyed and my power in magic
cease." (The Jewish Cabalistic Tree of Life, from the Jewish Cabala or
Kabbalah; Light-Bearers of Darkness, Inquire Within, pp. 154-155: In reading
this obligation it must be clearly understood that this Order is Cabalistic and
Gnostic, Jewish and anti-Christian. In it we have the Lord of the Universe, the
I.A.O. the Pan of the Gnostic cults.
The Christ in this obligation is the Serpent, the
Logos of the Gnostics; a 'Christ' is a deified man. The 'Great Work' is
Luciferian, the 'incarnation in humanity of the sovereign Sun,' the deification
of the adept, who directing and commanding the astral light, performs seeming
prodigies and miracles not for himself but always under the control of the
'Divine Guardians or the Order.' Turning to the letters above the adept's head,
the I.N.R.I., we find that it is the keyword of the 5-6 grade, and is analyzed
thus: I. Virgo, Isis, Mighty Mother - the reproducer of seeds and fruits on the
earth - the Preserver. N. Scorpio, Apophis, destroyer - the destroying and
uniting force - the Destroyer. R. Sol, Osiris, slain and risen - the generating
force of the Sun - the Creator. I. Isis. Apophis, Osiris. I.A.O. - I.N.R.I. The
Preserver, Destroyer and Creator, as invoked in the Equinox S.M. ceremony when
bringing down the light. The Inner Sign is L.V.X.)
"Judaism itself is a kind of Freemasonry, owing to the national
solidarity of the Jews, their cosmopolitanism, which set the Jews free from all
local and patriotic ties, and finally, the opposition of the Jews to
Christianity." (Rev. S.J. Deschamps, Les Sociétés Secrètes
et la Société, p. 24).
"How often have I heard the Freemasons lament the dominance of the
Jews...Ever since the Revolution the Jews have taken possession of the Masonic
lodges more and more completely: and their dominance is now unquestioned. The
Cabala rules as mistress in the inner lodges; and the Jewish spirit dominates
the lower grades...In the mind of Satan the synagogue has an all important part
to play...The great enemy counts on the Jews to govern Masonry as he counts on
Masonry to destroy the Church of Jesus Christ (Christianity)." (L'Abbá Emmanuel Barbier, Infiltrations Maáoniques, quoted in Dictionnaire
Apologétique de la Foi Catholique, Gustave Gautherot;
He was the Professor for the History of the Revolution in the Institute
Catholique de Paris, and author of several works on different phases of the
modern anti-Christian movement on which he is generally recognized as one of
the best authorities).
"In the early days of Christianity there sprang up in the old Pagan
world, systems of the universe which seemed to be a prolongation of the
philosophy of Plato, but which could be understood also as a spiritualization
of the wisdom of the Mysteries. All these systems had their starting-point in
Philo, the Jewish philosopher of Alexandria, who said: 'It is necessary for the
soul to come out of the ordinary 'I.' Then it enters into a state of spiritual
ecstasy, of illumination, when it ceases to know, to think and to recognize in
the ordinary sense of the words. For it has identified itself with the divine,
they have become one...'" (Le Mystère Chrétien et les Mystères
Antiques, Rudolf Steiner)
It is, in fact, the Cabalistic elements in Freemasonry that act as the
main driving force in the envenomed and aggressive opposition of the latter to
Christianity, and it’s never-flagging efforts for the undermining and
destruction of the Christian organization of society. (Mgr.
Dillon, The War of Anti-Christ with the Church, p. 20).
"This intimate connection between the two powers (Freemasonry and
Cabalistic Judaism) (writes R. Lambelin) is becoming so evident that there is
no longer any attempt made to deny it. The Jewish lodges of B'nai B'rith, which
originated in the English-speaking countries, have swarmed all over Europe, and
even into Asia; and they assume the leadership of control in the whole Masonic
organization. Under cover of Theosophy a new religion, which is specifically
Jewish, though enveloped in a nebulous mist that obscures its character, is
bidding fair to take the place of the traditional Christian belief which it
flatters, and insensibly destroys." (Les
Victoires d'Israel, pp. 211-212; Freemasonry and The Anti-Christian Movement,
Edward Cahill, p. 92).
"But whence comes this sinister marvel (the progressive Judaic
Power)? It comes from the failing of the Christian faith...from the progress of
secret societies, filled with apostate Christians who desire what the Jew
desires; that is to say, Judaic civilization is given to us by our teacher and
master the philosophic Jew, the Jew of the 'Alliance universelle.'" (des
Mousseaux; The Trail of the Serpent, Inquire Within, Miss Stoddard, p. 93).
"...Everywhere I found minds much inclined to exaltation. All feel
that the old world is cracking, and that kings are finished...The harvest made
should fructify...The fall of thrones makes it no longer doubtful to me, who
have come from studying the work of our societies in France, Switzerland and
Germany, and even Prussia. The assault which, a few years from now, or perhaps
a few months, will be delivered upon the princes of the earth, will bury them
under the ruins of their powerless armies and their decrepit monarchies.
Everywhere there is enthusiasm among our people and apathy and indifference
among the enemy (as we see today!). It is a certain and infallible sign of
success...In order to kill surely the old world we have believed it necessary
to stifle the Catholic and Christian germ...This brave Mazzini, whom I have met
at various times, has always his humanitarian dream in his brain and in his
mouth. But, apart from his small failings and his methods of assassinations, he
has good in him. With his mysticism he strikes the attention of the masses who
understand nothing of his grand airs of prophet or his discourses of a
cosmopolitan Illuminatus..." (Les Sociétés Secrètes de France
et d'Italie, 1830, The Trail of the Serpent, Inquire Within, Miss Stoddard, p.
94).
"The anti-religious but, above all, anti-Christian efforts which
distinguish the present epoch have a character of concentration and
universality which marks the stamp of the Jew, the supreme patron of the
unification of peoples, because he is the cosmopolitan people par excellence;
because the Jew prepares by license of the libre-pensÇe, the era called by him
'Messianic' - the day of his universal triumph. He attributes its near
realization to the principles spread by the philosophers of the eighteenth
century; the men at once unbelievers and cabalists, whose work prepared the
Judaising of the world. The character of universality will be noted in
L'Alliance-isrÇlite-universelle, in the Universal Association of Freemasonry,
and in the more recent auxiliaries, L'Alliance-universelle-religieuse, open to
those who are still frightened off by the name of Israelite and finally in the
Ligue-universelle de l'enseignement..." (Le
Juif, Gougenot des Mousseaux, (1869), The Trail of the Serpent, Inquire Within,
Miss Stoddard, pp. 96-97)
"There will burst forth one fine evening one of these formidable
crises which will shake the earth and which occult societies have long prepared
for Christian society, and then perhaps will suddenly appear in open day,
throughout the entire world, all the militia, all the fraternal and unknown
sects of the Cabala. The ignorance, the carelessness in which we live, of their
sinister existence, their affinities, and their immense ramifications will in
no way prevent them from recognizing each other, and under the banner of no
matter what universal alliance, giving each other the kiss of Peace, they will
hasten to gather together under one Chief..." (Le
Juif, Le Judaïsme et La Judaïsation des Peuples Chrétiens, Gougenot des
Mousseaux (1869); The Trail of the Serpent, Miss Stoddard, p. 318).
"The results of our investigations into the many secret and occult
societies both of yesterday and today, as published in the Patriot from 1930 to
1935. Everything seems to point to the Cabalistic and revolutionary Jew as the
Master-mind working behind them, using them as pawns in his great gamble and
world-wide conspiracy, which would disintegrate and destroy, not only the
Christian Faith, but the entire traditions of Western civilization. His weapon
of control and attack being the Triangle of Fire, these magnetic-forces of Life
which can both slay and make alive, and by which he professes to free and
enlighten the peoples, only the more surely to bind, unify, and enslave them
under some unknown and alien Ruler. Moreover, to forward this sinister gamble he
entraps and blinds them with the ancient catch-words: 'Know Thyself' and 'Ye
shall be as Gods.' That is Illuminism or so-called Liberation of Man, Free not
to use his freedom for himself, but to fulfill the Plans of the Great
Conspiracy and its Supreme Pontiff!" (The
Trail of the Serpent, Miss Stoddard, p. 318).
"The highest development was in the Egyptian and Cabalistic
systems, and it was blended with Christian thought in the schools of the
Neo-Platonists and the Gnostics...Its studies were only kept alive during the
Dark Ages among the Jews who were the chief exponents of its Cabalistic
aspect...and it is still alive today." (Fraternity
of inner Light, Dion Fortune)
"The political development of
these secret movements is always by gradual stages, culminating in revolution
is always by gradual stages, culminating in revolution as a preparation for
world domination by their hidden directors...the required development in India,
attempted a pseudo-revival of Hinduism and later the establishment of a World
Teacher, mouthpiece of her (Mme Blavatsky) hidden directors, entirely
anti-Christian; further, her social and educational work led inevitably to
politics, the disintegrating so-called Nationalism." (The
Trail of the Serpent, Miss Stoddard, pp. 181-182).
"The final consummation will be when all this luminous substance
has been separated from matter; the evil fire will then be freed from the
caverns; the angel upholding the earth will let it fall in flames, and the
whole mass will be relegated to Outer Darkness. Those who have failed to free
themselves in time will be made guardians of the devils, keeping them from
again bringing matter into the kingdom of Light. Such is the marvelous fable
under which lies the nature-worship of ancient and modern Magnetism, known
today as Illuminism, often called Christianity! as, for example, Anthroposophy
or Steinerism, with its two opposing forces Lucifer and Ahriman, light and
matter, and its solar and illuminising Christ. And the redemption consists with
them of a physical and gnostic process of freeing, by means of unused
sex-force, the element of light from matter or the body, and uniting it with
the universal magnetic agent without, more often linking one mind with another
in a magnetic chain, the weaker dominated by the more powerful, producing a
world-inundation of communications from so- called 'Sages and Prophets,'
destructive both to Christianity and Western civilization." (The
Trail of the Serpent, Miss Stoddard, p. 33)
"The new State is an authoritative State guided and limited by the
principles of Christian justice, conformable to the historical and spiritual
traditions of the country. The openly anti-religious and anti-Christian
character of Freemasonry was, therefore, contrary to the spiritual and moral bases
of the new State...It subjects its initiates to a rigid discipline, the aims
and interests of which are opposed to those of the nation. The State, charged
with the direction and well-being of the country, constantly struck up against
mysterious obstacles difficult to surmount, which hindered the progress of
national affairs. Freemasonry thus formed a State within a State, a strong
occult State behind the feeble apparent State, which reduced the latter to a
purely superficial role. The new Portuguese State is a strong State which
cannot admit a subterranean authority contrary to its own. The hierarchic
complexity of Freemasonry indicates that Freemasonry has hidden and complicated
plans, aiming at international ends which override those of the National State.
Freemasonry thus leads to a great international diplomatic occult action
directed probably by a foreign head. Such a submission to foreign international
direction is contrary to the patriotic sentiment of the country. Apart from
that, the secret which Freemasonry imposes so rigorously upon its adepts allows
it to be presumed that what they hide so well is neither insignificant nor
beneficial..."
(M. Cabral, summing up the motives which
led to the passing of the law against Freemasonry, as quoted in The Trail of
the Serpent, Miss Stoddard, p. 153).
"For centuries there have existed certain
esoteric schools of mystical philosophy originating apparently in several
Oriental currents of thought meeting in the Levant, Egypt, and the nearer East.
We find in these schools elements of Buddhism, Zoroastrianism and Egyptian
occultism mingled with Grecian mysteries, Jewish Cabalism, and fragments of
ancient Syrian cults. Out of the hotch-potch of Oriental philosophy, magic, and
mythology arose in the earlier centuries of the Christian era numerous Gnostic
sects, and after the rise of Mohammedanism, several heretical sects among the
followers of Islam, such as the Ismaelites, Durses, and Assassins, which found
their inspiration in the House of Wisdom in Cairo. To the same sources may be
traced the ideas that inspired such political-religious movements of the Middle
Ages as those of the Illuminati, Albgenses, Cathari, Waldenses, Troubadours,
Anabaptists, and Lollards. To the same inspirations must be assigned the rise
of early secret societies. The Templars are said to have been initiated by the
Assassins into anti-Christian and subversive mysteries, and we find similar
traces of an old and occult origin in the Alchemists, the Rosicrucians, and the
later mystical cults of the Swedenborgian is a familiar example." (The Anatomy of Revolution, by G.G. better known as 'Dargon,' author of
The Nameless order, published by The Patriot, October 922).
