An Illuminatus Speaks:
You will have to decide if this Illuminatus speaks with forked
tongue or not. There is no black and white to the matter as I
see it.
I have not read a lot of Alan Watts, because people have always
told me I sound like him. I promise that even if you think that
someone sounds like you or thinks as you do ? this is one book
that will challenge many things that we all must question. Here
is one of many things said by Watts which I agree with.
?Faith is an openness and trusting attitude to truth and
reality, whatever it may turn out to be. This is a risky and
adventurous state of mind. Belief in the religious sense, is the
opposite of faith - because it is a fervent wishing or hope, a
compulsive clinging to the idea that the universe is arranged
and governed in such and such a way. Belief is holding to a
rock; faith is learning how to swim - and this whole universe
swims in boundless space.? - Alan Watts
This next piece is from someone I know to be part of the
Merovingian families and a real Illuminatus in the good sense. I
think it fair to share this with you and she has told me I may
share it and anything she has in web sites. However I do not
identify her in this medium because she would not want the ego
issues and flack.
?There is quite a bit of material in here on the Illuminati or
the word and concept thereof. Now, we do not do the
conspiracist?s view of Illuminati. Simple logic tells you that
what they consider "Arcane Secret Order" contains info they also
will not know. So it is safe to discard these Theories.
Simply put, an Illuminati is a Rosicrucian/Hermetic (and
sometimes "other") who has achieved a certain a certain degree
and/or heights of various aspects, an enlightened individual who
uses such light for his obligation towards the Universe,
balancing it and making it a better place to live etc. The Order
involved contains enlightenments of mind, soul and body that
they will not reveal simply because "inquiring minds want to
know". One must work towards gaining this knowledge and if they
have the stuff it takes then they will gain this knowledge. If a
seeker doesn't have the required prerequisites s/he is not going
to be able to comprehend them anyway. This is how the info gets
corrupted; misunderstanding and second and third hand info.
*smiles gently*I take my Order(s), seriously, they are not a
game nor are the applications taken lightly. Most of the
questions answered on this particular subject (including
Hermetics and other Arcane Orders) regarding the Sacred
Mysteries and Knowledge contained herein, can be answered in one
sentence: "Join a Rosicrucian/Hermetic Order and find out the
answers for yourself. I have done the work why can't you?"
I have never seen a book on Illuminati that is accurate. Could
we find a hint way in the word "Arcane"? Could the dictionary be
purposely throwing the uninitiated off? Or is this definition,
like with other words, born of how today's uninitiated view? It
is interesting to view a dictionary published at the turn of the
century before the conspiracists and other "unhappies" who
didn't feel it necessary to do the work others have and out of
covetousness, jealousy, revenge etc. helped form this newer
definition which can be found in any newer dictionary.*shrugs*
But they cannot touch light like this. This older definition
begins with a "Church" history, those who carried the light in
ritual (this in itself is interesting*grins impishly*), then to
a "16th century Spanish sect who believed in "mental prayer"
discarding all rituales, tools" etc (the Mass etc)*grins
impishly again* "The Bavarian Illuminati founded in 1776" (and
one that has taken a lot of hits and is probably the seed for
many of these erroneous "theories") "an anticlerical, deistic
republican society, The Order Of The Illuminati", and "persons
who claim to have extraordinary knowledge of enlightenment;
chiefly of satirical use." Buddha is an Illuminati, The Christos
is an Illuminati, Mother Theresa is certainly an Illuminati,
there are a few Sacred Men in Eastern Traditions who hold this
title and some in Western Trads. Even those who may be in an
Order (within an Order) considered Illuminati, do not hold this
distinct honor yet, but trying to work towards it, most never
achieve it. Oh btw, an Illuminatis light will never die.
Illuminatis are those illumined who know that it is their
obligation to see that others are also so illumed, they do not
see themselves as gaining superior enlightenment that others
could never possess. They do, however provide appropriate Paths
for others to gain this illumination in their lives or as much
as they can possibly get in this lifetime. Anyone who says they
are an illuminati is usually not one (unless you are in an
Order, then you are privy to more than the uninitiated, but
promise you will have to work for it.) And Illuminati does not
need to be known, have his/her back patted, nor do they care to
or want to. They have dealt with ego issues a long time ago.
*smiles softly* I am not into handing out information I worked
hard for, I liken this to my expertise in
Siddhi/Kundalini/Ayurvedic Medicine, for which I worked hard and
long to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to be effective.
I can't give you a brief overview and a couple of tools and
expect you to either fully understand all the dynamics and
principles and send you out to heal. It takes a personal quest,
study and applications as you work through different aspects.?
