SECRET ILLUMINATI - Eye of The Phoenix; The Secret Destiny of America by Manly Palmer Hall and Nicholas Roerich "Chintamani Stone,"
Secret Societies ( Documentary )
The SECRET BOOK of the ILLUMINATI | Do You Have the Eyes to See? Here we are? Explore the hidden books of the Pythagorean Illuminati. There is more to the Illuminati but
what is the real and whole truth? This new Youtube from Morgue is to watch with a very open eye because he is very strange.
This high-quality documentary proves the following points about the two Seals on the back of the One Dollar Bill with clarity and precision:
The Masons have been steadfastly determined since 1782 to seize control of the Temple Mount so they could resurrect Solomon's Temple for use by their Masonic Christ!
Since this was the plan in 1782 when the Seals were created, the Masons made sure that the symbolism of the unfinished pyramid directly tied into their plan to rebuild Solomon's Temple.
When the Masonic Christ (Antichrist) is planned to be the "Living Stone" to top off the unfinished pyramid! You will be amazed at this simple, but profound, symbolism linkage and by the thorough degree to which this plan fulfills Bible prophecy exactly!
You will be shocked to realize that the stage for the fulfillment of this End of the Age prophecy was set all the way back to 1782!
SECRET ILLUMINATI - Eye of The Phoenix - FEATURE FILM
from conspiracy central Website
The film "Eye of the Phoenix" is nearly 3 hours long and it was very long.
What do I think of it?
It is one of the greatest documentaries I've ever seen in my life. It focused not only on the Great Seal but other subjects like the Illuminati, and the Theosophical Society (whose co-founder was, of course, Madame H.P. Blavatsky. She followed the Gnostic lie that the Devil in the Bible offering Adam the fruit of knowledge was the good guy, while Jehovah was the bad guy. That is one definition of the creed of Gnosticism), the Philosopher Stone, and other issues.
The film made known that certain occultists want to create their utopian new world order (and involved in that goal is the re-establishment of Solomon's Temple. Freemasonry explicitly wants this goal as quotes exist of this). It outlined information that I knew about and it presented information that I didn't know about.

One of the major parts of the film was about the Phoenix bird.
The Phoenix bird in legend would die and burn plus it would reappear later. In ancient cultures, it represented the false sun-god (even a peacock or a strange feathered bird) or even Lucifer. That is why occult Secret Societies to this day outline worship of Lucifer (or Satan). One of the old names for the Phoenix is FENEX in the Greek language, which equals 666 in the Greek gematria calculation.
The Phoenix was caused by the shining one, which is an old name for Lucifer ironically.
The occult groups believe that ancient knowledge didn't just exist in ancient Babylon, but in Ancient Atlantis (where objects like The Emerald Tablets of Thoth and the lapis exillis. These objects were lusted after by Rosicrucian Nicholas Roerich and his temporary ally 32nd Degree Freemason Henry Wallace).
Myths claim that the lapis exillis was the stone from Lucifer's crown that broke after Lucifer fought the archangel, Michael. This story is found in Manly P. Hall's literature. Masonic apologists may deny that the Great Seal is of Masonic origin (even though Masonic symbols are on them), but the one Dollar Bill is definitely of Masonic origin.
People certainly will compare it to Riddles and Stone. In my opinion, the Eye of the Phoenix is a level above Riddles and Stone in terms of the information describing America's secret history. What was particularly great about the film was how it described the Jacobite Rebellions in a simplistic fashion. The Jacobites supported the pro-Catholic King James II of England. He was forced out of the throne via the Glorious Revolution of 1688.
The Jacobites in large numbers went into America and their Scottish descendants influenced the American Revolution (with Masons like Hugh Mercer).
The Eye of the Phoenix is an excellent film that delves into higher levels of information revolving around the agenda of Secret Societies. Nicholas Roerich, as the documentary proves, wanted to create the global government system (even an Asian Union first).

The film is like information overload since it reaches into more facts than elaborates on other levels of concepts.

World democracy was the secret dream of the great clas貞ical philosophers. ...
Thousands of years before Columbus they were aware of the existence of our
Western Hemi貞phere and selected it to be the site of the philosophic empire. ...
The brilliant plan of the Ancients has survived to our time, and it will continue to
function until the great work is accomplished. ...
The American nation des計erately needs a vision of its own purpose.
AMERICA cannot refuse the challenge of leadership in the postwar world. Mere physical reconstruction of ravaged countries and the reorganization of political, economic, and social sys負ems is the lesser task we will face. The larger problem and the great chal衍enge is in how to set up a new order of world ethics firmly established on a foundation of demo苞ratic idealism.
Experts in various fields have already submitted programs designed to meet the needs of those na負ions whose way of life has been disrupted by war. But with the failing common to specially trained minds, these planners incline to think mostly in the terms of their own particular interests. As yet, no one has touched the fundamentals of inter要ational ethics. No one has advanced a working plan securely based upon a broad, deep, and sym計athetic understanding of the human being and his problems. The thinking has been in the dual fields of power politics and material economics, with remedies expressed in terms of charts, blue計rints, patterns, and industrial programs.
But, there is one new and encouraging element present in most of the recommendations of today's experts. They are recognizing the necessity of con苞eiving the world as one inter-dependent structure. Yet, even as they recognize the need for a unity of human interests, their recommendations are for the perpetuation of highly competitive economic policies, which, if they are consistently applied, must lead the end to war and discord.
It is not an easy task to unite the efforts of the human race toward the accomplishment of any common good. Mankind in the majority is selfish, provincial in attitude, and concerned primarily with personal success and acquiring creature comforts. It will not be possible to build an enduring peace until the average man has been convinced that per貞onal selfishness is detrimental to personal happiness and personal success. It must be shown that self-seeking has gone out of fashion and that the world is moving on to a larger conception of living.
The postwar planners have more of idealism in their programs than has ever before been expressed in the problem of the relationships of nations. But it still is not enough. A clear and complete state衫ent of a world purpose is required--a world dreams great enough to inspire unity of world effort.
These are the days of America's opportunity to lead a still troubled mankind toward a better way of life. If we meet this challenge, we will ensure the not only survival of our nation for centuries to come, but we shall gain the enduring gratitude of our fellowmen and Americans will be remembered to the end of time as a great enlightened people.
It is not enough that we solve particular prob衍ems. We must solve the very cause of the problem itself. Wars, depressions, crime, dictators and their oppression, are the symptoms giving clear indica負ion of a greater ailment. To examine each prob衍em solely in terms of the problem itself, without recognition of its true relationship to a larger and more universal necessity, is to fail in the broader implications of an enduring peace and prosperity.
Experience should have taught us long ago that policies which have originated from material con貞iderations and attitudes have proved inadequate. The whole story of civilization and the records of history tell us that all such adjustments hold no hope of lasting peace or security. But, here we are again preparing ourselves to be satisfied with tem計orary solutions for permanent problems.
The recognition is long overdue that we over貞implify the problem of world peace when we think that process is one of breaking the task down for examination of its materialistic parts, and then hopefully devising an applicable remedy for each of these. The physical conditions of human existence are not the whole of the human problem. We could adjust all material considerations to the point of supremest equity, and yet accomplish vir負ually nothing solutional.
The greatest of known problems is the human problem. And not until the all-embracing examination is made into every phase of human needs can there be an adequate reconstruction policy for a postwar world. That man is physical is obvious, but he is also mental, and emotional; he is spiritual, and he has a soul. These latter factors are not so obvious.
What to do about them is not so easy; for they are difficult to understand, and even more difficult to classify and reduce to a working pattern. We as builders of a civilization will have to learn that only when equal consideration is given to each of these elements of man's nature will we arrive at the solutions for the disasters into which men and nations precipitate themselves.
Our postwar reconstructors--ours, if not by our selection, at least with our consent--are not out貞tandingly qualified for this broader task. Few indeed are the statesmen and politicians who have any conception of man as a spiritual being. And as for military leaders, they are primarily disci計linarians, invaluable as such in times of war, but not at all emotionally geared to problems of indi赳idualistic peacetime character. And world plan要ers recruited from among our industrial leaders, it must be admitted, are not generally informed on the workings of the human psyche. Those who have made the study of human conduct their life work, the sociologists, have little scientific knowl苟dge of the hidden springs that animate that very conduct into its amazing diversity of manifesta負ions. And if a word is to be said for bringing in the clergy, it might be that the theologian planner who will be truly useful will be one who acquires at least some knowledge of the science of biology.
We are displaying a woeful lack of vision in the way we fumble with the eternal laws of life. It is not enough that we now hopefully create a setup permitting men to give allegiance with their minds or to serve faithfully with their bodies. We must someday face the truth that man is inevitably and incurably an idealist; for this is the truth that will set us free. Man's need is for the idealistic content of his nature to be properly nourished; then his whole consciousness will impel him to right action -and then no more will our laws fail, treaties be broken, and the rights of man stand violated.
The American nation desperately needs a vision of its own purpose. It must conceive it in a gen苟rous idealism, great and strong enough to bind thoughtless and selfish persons to something bigger than themselves. It must recognize that it is in the intangible ideal that the foundations are laid for all seeable good, must know that the truly prac負ical course and the course of hard realism for America is the one that is laid basically in a generous idealism.
This is more than an indicated course. It is one that we inevitably must follow, guided by the hand of destiny.
Believing this to be so, I dedicate this book to the proposition that American Democracy is part of a Universal Plan.
Our world is ruled by inflexible laws which con負rol not only the motions of the heavenly bodies but the consequences of human conduct. These Uni赳ersal motions, interpreted politically, are impelling human society out of a state of autocracy and tyran要y to democracy and freedom. This motion is inevitable, for the growth of humans is a gradual development of mind over matter, and the motion itself represents the natural and reasonable unfold衫ent of the potentials within human character.
Those who attempt to resist this motion destroy themselves. To cooperate with this motion, and to assist Nature in every possible way to the accom計lishment of its inevitable purpose, is to survive.
Thousands of years before the beginning of the Christian era many enlightened thinkers discov苟red the will of God as expressed through Nature in the affairs of men. They made known their discoveries in terms of religions, philosophies, sciences, arts, and political systems. These first statements are now the admired monuments of ancient learning. Available to men of today, they are generally ignored.
Years of research among the records of olden peoples available in libraries, museums, and shrines of ancient cultures, has convinced me that there exists in the world today and has existed for thou貞ands of years, a body of enlightened humans un虹ted in what might be termed, an Order of the Quest. It is composed of those whose intellectual and spiritual perceptions have revealed to them that civilization has a Secret Destiny--secret, I say, because this high purpose is not realized by the many; the great masses of peoples still live along without any knowledge whatsoever that they are part of a Universal Motion in time and space.
Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, Buddha, Jesus, and Mohammed are among the greatest names re苞orded in history; but it is not customary to re茆ard the men who bore these names as statesmen or sociologists. They are thought of as philos觔phers, sages, seers, and mystics, whose doctrines have no application to the political needs of an industrial civilization. Yet it is men like Plato and Buddha who still exercise the most powerful force in mortal affairs toward the perpetuation and pre貞ervation of a civilized state among all nations.
All of the great leaders of ancient times realized and taught that the establishment of a state of per衫anent peace among the nations depended upon the release of human ideals, but through properly trained and disciplined minds capable of interpret虹ng these ideas in terms of the common good.
World democracy was the secret dream of the great classical philosophers. Toward the accom計lishment of this greatest of all human ends, they outlined programs of education, religion, and so苞ial conduct directed to the ultimate achievement of a practical and universal brotherhood. And in order to accomplish their purposes more effectively, these ancient scholars bound themselves with cer負ain mystic ties into a broad confraternity. In Egypt, Greece, India, and China, the State Mys負eries came into existence. Orders of initiated priest計hilosophers were formed as a sovereign body to instruct, advise, and direct the rulers of the States.
Thousands of years ago, in Egypt, these mystical orders were aware of the existence of the western hemisphere and the great continent which we call America. The bold resolution was made that this western continent should become the site of the philosophic empire. Just when this was done it is impossible now to say, but certainly, the decision was reached prior to the time of Plato, for a thinly veiled statement of this resolution is the substance of his treatise on the Atlantic Islands.
One of the most ancient of man's constructive ideas is the dream of a universal democracy and a cooperation of all nations in a commonwealth of States. The mechanism for the accomplishment of this ideal was set in motion in the ancient temples of Greece, Egypt, and India. So brilliant was the plan and so well was it administrated that it has survived to our time, and it will continue to function until the great work is accomplished.
Philosophy set up its house in the world to free men by freeing them of their own inordinate de貞ires and ambitions. It saw selfishness as the greatest crime against the common good, for selfishness is natural to all who are untutored. It recognized that the mind has to be trained in the laws of thinking before men can be capable of self-ruler貞hip. And it knew that the democratic common趴ealth can be a reality only when our world is a world of self-ruling men.
And so it is from the remote past, from the deep shadows of the medieval world as well as from the early struggles of more modern times, that the power of American democracy has come. But we are only on the threshold of the democratic state. Not only must we preserve that which we have gained through ages of striving, we must also per苯ect the plan of the ages, setting up here the ma苞hinery for a world brotherhood of nations and races.
This is our duty and our glorious opportunity.
It seems to me that the basic plan for the post趴ar world should be one solidly founded in this great dream of Universal Brotherhood. It is not enough to work on the problem solely in terms of politics and industry. The formula must express a broad idealism, one which appeals to the finest intuitions of man, and one universally understand苔ble by all who have lived, dreamed, and suffered on this mortal sphere.
2. THE WORLD'S FIRST DEMOCRAT
The leader who had the first social consciousness in the administration of a nation
was a Pharaoh of Egypt, Akhnaton. ... Born several thousand years too soon,
he was the first realist in democracy, the first humanitarian, the first internationalist. ...
He saw that the duty of the ruler is to protect for all the right to live well, to think, to dream, to hope, and to aspire. ...
For his dream of the Brotherhood of Man, he cheerfully gave his life.

MAN has passed out of the state of savagery and be苞ome a civilized creature with the development of social consciousness. Civi衍ization is a collective state. In our collective type of life, the isolationist is a detriment to himself and a menace to all others.
There is a great difference between isolationism and intellectualism. Development of the mind re衍eases the individual from mob psychology, but it does not set him apart from the common respons虹bilities of his kind. A true thinker becomes a force for good within the group life. If his intel衍ectual powers lure him away from the practical problems and values of his world, he can no longer make his contribution to the social unity.
Political reforms are not accomplished by the people but through the people. Behind all collec負ive progress stands the enlightened individual's leadership. His superiority does not free him from common responsibility; he is the obligation to assume the greater burden of directing his vision to the well being of all his people.
Let us see how this works. We'll go far back to ancient times.
Akhnaton, Pharaoh of Egypt, throned under the title Amen-Hotep IV, is often referred to as the first civilized human being. While this may not be literally true, he was definitely the first man in recorded history to exemplify social consciousness in the administration of a great nation.
Akhnaton, the beloved child of the Aton, was born at Thebes about 1388 B.C. Like most of the princes of his house, he was extremely delicate as a child, and it was feared that he would not live to reach the throne; as the last of his line, the dynasty would end with him if he died without issue. For this reason, he was married in his twelfth year to a ten-year-old Egyptian girl of noble birth, named Nefertiti.
During the childhood of the young king, the Queen mother, Tiy, ruled as regent of the double empire. She is believed to have been of Syrian origin, which would account for the many strange and un-Egyptian ideas in religion, government, and art which were developed during the reign of Akhnaton. Queen Tiy, brilliant and capable, had recognized before her son reached his majority that in him were qualities more divine than human. The son became the actual ruler of his country in his eighteenth year; his reign extended for seventeen years.
Akhnaton had been the ruler of Egypt only about two years when he opposed his will to the priest虐ood of Amon-Ra. By attacking the oldest and most firmly established of all Egyptian institutions, the young Pharaoh created legions of enemies and brought down upon himself the wrath of the reli茆ion of the State. He could scarcely have chosen a surer way of complicating the problems of his life.
In the midst of this conflict, he proclaimed a new spiritual dispensation, and to escape his enemies built a new capital city, one hundred and sixty miles up the Nile from Cairo. His new faith was Atonism; and he named his city Khut-en-Aton--the Horizon of the Aton--and dedicated the city with these words: "Ye behold the City of the Ho訃izon of Aton, which the Aton has desired me to make for Him as a monument, in the great name of My Majesty forever. For it was Aton, my Father, that brought me to this City of the Horizon."
As High Priest of his new religion, Amen-Hotep IV changed his name to Akhnaton, because the older name included the word Amen, whose faith he had rejected.
Charles F. Potter, in his History of Religion, says of Akhnaton that he was, "the first pacifist, the first realist, the first monotheist, the first Democrat, the first heretic, the first humanitarian, the first internationalist, and the first person known to at負empt to found a religion. He was born out of due time, several thousand years too soon."
From his twenty-sixth year to his thirty-first year, Akhnaton devoted his life to the perfection of his mystical doctrine in the city which he had built for the Ever-Living God. Here he taught the mystery of the Divine Father and wrote the simple and beautiful poems which have endured and survived time. To Akhnaton, God was not a mighty warrior ruling over Egypt, speaking through the oracles of his priests; he was not a Supreme Being flying through the air in a war chariot leading armies of destruction. Aton was the gentle father who loved all his children, of every race and nation; and desired for them that they should live together in peace and comradeship.
Even more, God, the Aton, had created all the lesser creatures, whether birds that nested in the papyrus reeds along the banks of the Nile or dragonflies with many colored wings that hovered over quiet pools and the lotus blooms. The Aton was the father of all beasts, and fishes, and flowers, and insects. He had fashioned them in his wisdom and preserved them with his love and tenderness.
Akhnaton, seated in the garden of his palace, spent many hours watching the flight of birds and listening to the voices of little creatures. He tells us that he found the Aton in all of them and that his heart went out to them, and he gave thanks for the goodness in everything that lived.
This was a Pharaoh who traveled alone through the countryside, meeting the peasants, conversing with slaves, and sharing the simple food of the poor. To the most ignorant man, he listened with profound respect, for in each of his subjects he sought and found the life of the Aton. He saw the Universal God shining through the eyes of little children, beheld the beauty of the Aton in the bodies of the men who worked in the fields. He could not understand why others did not see God in everything, as he did.
Like most of the great religious leaders, Akhn苔ton accepted the social problem of life as part of religion. He could not accept the inequalities of birth, wealth, or physical estate as a justification for men persecuting each other or exploiting one another. He saw every living thing has a divine right--a right to live well, to think, to dream, to hope, and to aspire. He saw it the duty of the ruler to protect this beauty in the hearts of his peo計le, to nourish it, and to give every possible oppor負unity for its expression and perfection.
Religious intolerance was impossible among those who worshipped the Atan, and there was no room for political intolerance in a world governed by the laws of brotherly love. Each man became the protector and comforter of all other men, cherish虹ng the dreams of others equally with his own.
In his personal life, Akhnaton emerges as the first man in history to bring dignity and gentle beauty to the management of his home. He was the father of seven daughters, to whom he was completely devoted, and in his speeches and public pronouncements he always referred to Queen Ne苯ertiti as "my beloved wife."
It was usual for the Pharaohs to cause themselves to be depicted in great stone carvings upon the walls of their palaces. They were represented as majestic figures, crowned and sceptered; they were shown either seated on their thrones or wielding their weapons against their foes. Akhnaton was the only Pharaoh in the history of Egypt who chose to be depicted with his arm about his wife, with his little daughters playing about and seated on his lap
As with the passing years the health of the Pharaoh grew worse, the opposition of the priest虐ood of Amon-Ra grew greater; and his reign was complicated by invasions by the Hittite nations. The governors of various provinces pleaded with him for help, but Akhnaton would not send armies.
The dreamer king saw his lands pillaged and his cities conquered; but he would not kill his ene衫ies; they, too, were children of the Aton.
Akhnaton died in his thirty-sixth year, at the altar of the Aton in the temple of the faith he had created. When his mummy case was found, the follow虹ng prayer to the Aton was discovered inscribed on golden foil beneath his feet. "I breathe the sweet breath which comes forth from Thy mouth. I behold Thy beauty every day .... Give me Thy hands, holding Thy spirit, that I may receive it and may be lifted by it. Call Thou upon my name unto eternity, and it shall never fail."
In the words of the great Egyptologist, Professor Breasted, "There died with him such a spirit as the world had never seen before."
Akhnaton was the first man in history who dared to dream of the Brotherhood of Men, and he cheer苯ully gave his life and his empire for that dream.
He is indeed, "The beautiful child of the Living Aton, whose name shall live forever and ever."
3. WESTWARD OCEAN TRAVEL TO THE EARTHLY PARADISE
From Plutarch's description of voyages it can be calculated that our great continent
in the Western Hemisphere was visited by the ancient Greeks;
they not only reached our shores but explored part of the Great Lakes area. ...
Under a thin veil of symbolism, they perpetuated in myth觔logy their knowledge
of our land, which they called blessed... The area was anciently set apart for coming generations
in the great human experiment of the demo苞ratic commonwealth.

The ancient Greeks had a far better knowledge of geography than popular opinion today indicates. We have been deceived as to the full measure of clas貞ical learning, because the Greeks did not commit the larger part of their knowledge to writing, and they bound scholarship with the vow of secrecy.
In ancient days all learning was regarded as sacred; wisdom was entrusted to the keeping of priest-philosophers, and they were permitted to communicate the choicest branches of the sciences only to duly initiated pupils. To bestow knowl苟dge upon those who had not prepared their minds by years of discipline and self-purification profaned the mysteries, desecrated the sacred sciences.
Some years ago, in discussing this fine point in ethics with the late Professor James Breasted, the most distinguished of American Egyptologists, he confirmed my own findings; and further stated it to be his personal conviction that the classical civi衍izations concealed most of their learning under legends, myths, and allegories; and these have long been mistakenly accepted as the literal beliefs of these peoples.
There can be no doubt that the existence of a great continent in the Western Hemisphere was known to the ancient Greeks. And also to the Egyptians and the Chinese. It is nothing short of foolish to assume that the ancients lacked ships sufficiently seaworthy to navigate the larger oceans. Long before the Christian era, the older civiliza負ion had constructed boats far larger and more sea趴orthy than any of the vessels used by Columbus. One of the Ptolemies of Egypt built a ship large enough to have an orchard of fruit trees on the deck, together with swimming pools and fountains stocked with live fish.
Calculations based upon Plutarch's description of ancient voyages seem to indicate that the Greeks not only reached the coast of America but explored the St. Lawrence River and part of the Great Lakes area. Plato, in his treatise on the destruction of Atlantis, wrote that due to the commotions in the ocean caused by the submergence of a vast con負inent, all navigation to the west ceased for a long period of time. This statement can only imply that such navigation had taken place in remote times.
Greek mythology perpetuates the knowledge of a blessed land beyond the Western Boundaries of Ocean. In this blessed land dwelt the Hesperides, the beautiful daughters of Night, and here also at the end of each day, the sun came to rest. In po計ular mythology, the Hesperia Isles were a kind of terrestrial paradise.
Thus, under a thin veil of mystic symbolism, was concealed the account of a Western continent of great size, fertile and rich and abounding in all good things.
The ancients believed the earth to be surrounded by the sphere of the constellations, and they assigned to each country the star groups which were above that country's particular area of land. In the arrangement preserved in the writings of Aratus of Soli, the constellation of the eagle spreads its wings across the North American con負inent; the serpent winds its coil-over Mexico and Central America, and the dragon floats in the sky above Japan and China.
Perhaps Sir Edward Landseer was not far wrong when he declared that the symbols of nations, and the emblems peculiar to their heraldry, originated in their ruling constellations. Just about everyone knows that the constellation of the Great Bear is in the sky over Russia, and since time immemorial the bear that walks like a man has been the accepted symbol of the Russian State.
Thus in many ways, we discover indications that the old races were wiser than we thought, and that what we have called discoveries are really only re-discoveries.
Beyond the western bounds of the ocean, they located the fair land set aside by the gods to be the earthly paradise. Here in the fulness of time all men would come in search of the Golden Fleece which hung upon the tree sacred to the apples of the sun; and the early explorers did travel to the West in search of a Golden Fleece--the gold of the Incas, the treasures of the Aztecs, and the jeweled temples of the seven cities of Cibola.
It was in an old book which is in the British Museum that I found another and the even more im計ortant key to the meaning of the Golden Fleece. It was known to the Greeks that the Golden Fleece was, in reality, a parchment on which was written the secret of human immortality. It was this parchment that Jason sought, for whoever discovered it would gain the secret of enduring empire and power over the whole world.
We have now in America, enshrined in the Con茆ressional Library, a Golden Fleece--the American Declaration of Independence, written on the skin of an animal and preserved as the magic formula of human hope. Those who understand it and can use wisely the import of its writings are possessed of the secret of the immortality of human society.
The curious fortunes of war brought another Golden Fleece from across the sea, and it is now preserved together with our own; this second parchment is the Magna Charta, the English bill of human rights which was the inspiration behind our American Declaration of Independence. These two immortal documents together form the decla訃ation of the rights of man and are the basic texts of modern democracy.
By the wisdom then of those gods who are eter要ally vigilant over the needs of man, the blessed lands of the west were set apart, for none of the great civilizations of the past rose in North Amer虹ca to overshadow the continent with the ruins of old tradition, or to set up the corruptions of old administrative policy. Foreign nations came to this continent in times long ago, but they formed no permanent settlements nor attempted any program of colonization. And so the soil was not im計overished by thousands of years of intensive cul負ivation, nor were the natural resources ravished to supply the substance to maintain endless wars and ageless feuds.
It was the rise of the democratic dream in Europe that supplied the beginning of western civilization. Those in search of a promised land turned to the west. Here was a virgin continent populated only by nomadic Indian tribes, a vast territory suitable in every way for the great human experiment of the democratic commonwealth.
By the nineteenth century the American Hes計erides was definitely the land of golden oppor負unity, and to it came streams of immigration from nearly every country on the earth. The better way of life drew them here, for it had been established that here men could build a future free of tyranny, intolerance, and enforced poverty. Here all were given an opportunity for education, for free enterprise, and living a life according to the dictates of hope and conscience.
If in a comparatively short time many racial streams have met and mingled, and a new race has been born, the American race is not one to be determined by an analysis of blood or the propor負ions of the cranium. Americans are a race de負ermined by the measure of a conviction, set apart by that conviction; it is the conviction that human beings are created free, and are entitled to equal opportunity to perfect themselves in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
And in recent years we have made another dis苞overy. It is that the race of democracy is one dis負ributed throughout the whole world. Among men and women of all races and all nations are those who share our conviction, and because they share it they are of our kind and belong to our race. In this realization, we mark the beginning of world democracy.
Wise men, the ancients believed, were a separate race, and to be born into this race it was necessary to develop the mind to a state of enlightened in負elligence. The old philosophers taught that phys虹cal birth is an accident, for men are born into various races and nationalities according to the laws of generation; but there is a second birth, which is not an accident; it is the consequence of a proper intent. By this second birth, man is born by enlightened intelligence out of the nation and out of race into an international nation and an inter要ational race. It is this larger and coming race that will someday inherit the earth. But unless a man is born again by enlightenment, he shall not be a part of the philosophic empire.
Our age of gold will pass and someday the Golden Age will come again. A future greatness is right now casting its long shadow across the face of Nature. With each passing generation, the re貞ponsibilities of the American people will increase. More and more we shall be looked to as a source of courage, strength, and hope.
And it will be in this way that we shall fulfill the destiny for which our nation was created by dreamers of long ago. From the Blessed Isles of the West must come the fulfillment of the promise of the ages.
4. THE FIRST ELECTION OF LAW-MAKERS
Solon, of Athens, freed the debtors' person to reform the institution of debt slavery;
he instituted the selection of juries by lot, with all citizens participating; and he gave the voting franchise
to all taxpayers alike, thus beginning national democracy six hundred years before Christ. ...
When he later journeyed to Egypt, he there learned of the first war of conquest, in the story of the lost Atlantis,
and became acquainted with the imperishable laws for the government of nations.

DEBT has been the common burden of the ages, and yet the whole structure of our modern economic world is built on the shaky founda負ion of Bills Payable and Bills Receivable. Long ago, interest ate up its own principal, and we are interested on our own are currently living on the in赴nliquidated debts.
Solon, the greatest statesman of the Greek world, was handed this age-old problem when, about 595 B.C., he was summoned to the leadership of the State with the title, Archon. He was given unlimited powers to reform the economic and constitutional systems of the Athenians. His first move was to attack the old Attic law of debt which he believed lay at the source of the public dis負ress.
In the time of Solon, the Greek countryside was littered with roughly hewn stone markers. Origin苔lly these were boundary stones fixing the property lines of the lands of various citizens. As time had passed, it had become the custom to carve into these stones the records of mortgage contracts affecting the property which they bounded. Single stones became insufficient after a time, and eventually, the added monuments to debt interfered with the plowing of the fields.
Solon, investigating the tragedy of the mortgage monument, made several interesting discoveries that were to change the course of human eco要omics. When poor farmers mortgaged their lands to rich families on neighboring estates, and the debts were not paid, the wealthy landowners moved their boundary stones to include the en苞umbered property, and the previous proprietors became tenants. These tenants were obliged to pay one-sixth of their products for the privilege of working the soil, and if they failed their persons were attached and they became slaves. This was the Attic law which Solon abolished, the law which permitted loans on the security of the debtor's person.
When Solon restored the freedom of all who had been enslaved for debt, the reform was highly acceptable of course to the poorer classes; but it found little favor with the landowners. They immediately set to work in a conspiracy to discredit Solon and force him out of office. Thus, back in very olden days, when life was very simple, the basic problems which harassed the State and bur苓ened the legislators stemmed from the persisting fallacies of human nature.
In further effort to bring some semblance of order out of the Athenian chaos, Solon also at負empted a reorganization of social classes, giving political existence to large groups never before re計resented in government. He divided the citizenry into four groups reminiscent of old Brahman castes. He then readjusted taxation so that the poorer classes all paid equally an approximate 5 percent of their income. Equalizing the tax bur苓en according to individual means paved the way for an equality of representation in the governing body. All citizens who paid taxes were entitled to be heard in matters of the common good and were privileged to elect magistrates. These steps marked the beginning of the democracy of the ancient Greeks.
But the greatest of all of the reforms of Solon took place in the courts of justice. Selection of juries was by lot, with all citizens participating, even the poorest; and these juries were upheld over the pressures of established privileged groups.
One of the most curious of Solon's regulations throws light on the difficulties of his time. He forbade that a bride should bring to the house of her husband more than three changes of the garment and ‘like personal furniture.' He also ordained that each citizen must stand ready to show at any time to properly authorized persons how he ob負ained his living. Any citizen failing to do this would lose his franchise.
The drastic changes of Solon made him so many enemies that after a few years he felt he had to relinquish the burden of leadership of the State to regain his honor. Those who hated and feared him, as Archon, promptly renewed their love after he left public office and no longer threatened their ambitions.
His term as Archon brought to Solon the realiza負ion of his own inadequacy, and he visited Egypt in search of a larger wisdom. He was received with kindness and every mark of respect by the priests at Sais who served the shrine of the Goddess Isis. To these wise men, he told the story of his effort to enlighten the Greeks, and correct the evils in their laws. The High Priest of Sais is re計orted to have said, "Alas, you Greeks, you are but children; for you know not the wisdom of the gods."
One night the priests of Sais led Solon through the long dark passageway of the temple. They descended stone stairs rutted with age and lighted only by flaming torches, came at length to subter訃anean chambers hewn from the living rock. Through these chambers flowed a river. The priests said that this river was the sacred Nile that flowed from Egypt through the underworld to water the fields of the immortals. On the bank of the underground stream, a small black boat was waiting, rowed by men who were blind.
Accompanied by the High Priest and the torchbearers, Solon was rowed out over the dark waters. The boat stopped on the shores of a tiny island far underground. The light from the torches fell on two tall columns that glistened; they appeared to be made of some strange metal, covered with curious writing in an unknown language.
The High Priest, pointing his golden rod at the pillars, explained their mystery to the astonished Solon. These columns, he said, were placed on the island beneath the ground thousands of years ago by a lost people which had vanished forever from the earth. The pillars were of an unknown metal which neither rusted nor deteriorated with age.
He continued: Once long ago there existed on the earth a vast empire, the power of which extended to every corner of the world, and great fleets of merchant ships sailed the seven seas and brought their wealth to its fabulous city of the Golden Gate. Here there were schools for the study of the mysteries of Nature; towers for the examination of the stars; mines beneath the earth from which the precious metals were brought forth in abundance. This empire was ruled over by seven kings, who were the descendants of Neptune, God of the Seas.
Then came the fatal day when the seven kings of the Islands of the West in disobedience to the laws of the gods resolved to conquer the whole earth. And thus it was that war came into being, for before that time there had been no strife among men. And the seven kings led an army against the ancient Greeks and they invaded all of Europe, coming in great ships from the west. This, Solon, was told, occurred about 9000 years before the siege of Troy.
The gods were angry because the seven kings had made war. They caused the earth to be shaken and the great Islands of the West vanished into the sea. In a single night, sixty million human beings perished because they had disobeyed the laws of heaven. In time even the name of the Atlantic Empire was forgotten; for it must ever be so that those who disobey the gods shall vanish from the memory of mankind, regardless of their wealth or power.
"From these ancient columns," said the High Priest, "we have read the laws that were given in olden times for the government of nations. These laws are not made by men but are the will of Eternal Nature. Upon these laws, enduring States must be built. To depart from these laws is to die. So perished the nations of the elder world."
When Solon returned to Greece it was his inten負ion to take the story of the Atlantic Empire and develop it into a great epic poem, but the infirmity of years and the responsibilities of the State inter苯ered. Instead, Solon told the story in the fullest detail to his close friend, Drop is, who in turn re苞ited it to his son, Critias. In his 90th year, Critias communicated the narrative to his grandson of the same name who later became a disciple of Socrates. It is in this way that the story of the lost Atlantis came finally to be incorporated in the Platonic dialogues as part of a conversation between the younger Critias and his master Socrates.
The dialogue itself was named the Critias.
5. THE ANCIENT LEAGUE OF NATIONS
A description of the lost Atlantis was written by Plato; it introduces the league
formed by the ten benevolent kings who ruled over the lesser nations and the three great continents of Europe, Asia, and Africa;
and who bound themselves by oath to obey the divine laws of enduring empire. ...
This was the philosophic democracy, with all men having the right to become wise through self-disci計line and self-improvement,
thus achieving the only aristocracy recognized by Natural Law. ... The Atlantis story continues
to the later decision of the kings to use their united power to enslave all the peoples of the earth, and the consequent destruction of Atlantis
by earthquake and fire ....interpreted politically, it is the story of the breaking up of the ideal pattern of government.

by earthquake and fire ....interpreted politically, it is the story of the breaking up of the ideal pattern of government.
The destruction of Atlantis, as described by Plato in the Critias, can be inter計reted as a political fable. The tradition of the Lost Empire as descended from Solon was enlarged and embellished according to the formulas of the Orphic theology, but it does not follow necessarily that Plato intended to dispar苔ge the idea that a lost continent had actually existed west of Europe. Plato was a philosopher; he saw in the account of the fall of Atlantis an admirable opportunity to summarize his convic負ions concerning government and politics.
The Critias first describes the blessed state of the Atlantean people under the benevolent rulership of ten kings who were bound together in a league. These kings were monarchs over seven islands and three great continents. From the fable, we can in苯er that the ten rulers of the Atlantic league were philosopher kings, endowed with all virtues and wise guardians of the public good. These kings obeyed the laws of the divine father of their house, Poseidon, god of the seas.
In the capital city of Atlantis stood the temple of Poseidon, and in it a golden figure of the god. In this shrine also stood a column of precious substance inscribed with the laws of enduring empire. The ten kings took their oath together to obey these laws, and they chose one of their numbers, usually of the family of Atlas, to be the chief of their league.
It was written on the column of the law that the ten kings of Atlantis should not take up arms against each other, for any reason. If one of them should break this law the other nine were to unite against him to preserve the peace.
In all matters concerning the public good the ten kings were to deliberate together, and each should be mindful of the just needs of the others; for they were the members of one body and re茆ents over the lands of a blessed god.
The kings had not the power of life or death over any of their subjects except with the consent of the majority of the ten, and each was responsible to the whole league for his conduct in the ad衫inistration of his own State.
In this way, Plato describes the government of the Golden Age, in which men live on earth ac苞ording to the laws of heaven.
By the three great continents of Atlantis are to be understood, Europe, Asia, and Africa; and by the seven islands, all the lesser peoples of the earth. The league of the ten kings is the cooperative com衫onwealth of mankind, the natural and proper form of human government. The Atlantis, there苯ore, is the archetype or the pattern of right gov苟rnment, which existed in ancient days but was destroyed by the selfishness and ignorance of men.
Plato, it must be remembered, was a monarchist by philosophic conviction, but his ideal king was the wise man perfect in the virtues and the natural ruler of those less informed than himself. This king was the father of his people, impersonal and unselfish, dedicated to the public good, a servant of both the gods and his fellow men. This king was descended of a divine race; that is, he be衍onged to the Order of the Illumined; for those who come to a state of wisdom then belong to the family of the heroes-perfected human beings.
Plato's monarchy was, therefore, a philosophic democracy; for all men had the right to become wise through self-discipline and self-improvement. One who achieved this state was by virtue of his own action a superior man, and this superiority was the only aristocracy recognized by Natural Law.
Competition is natural to the ignorant, and co觔peration is natural to the wise. Obeying the pattern established by the gods, the divine kings bound themselves into the common league to obey its laws, preserve the peace, and punish any whose ambition might impel them to tyranny or conquest.
Here then, is a pattern of world government to ensure the prosperity of all peoples and activate the preservation of the peace.
Plato describes at some length the prosperity of the Atlantic Isles under this benevolent rulership. The citizens were happy, and poverty was un虺nown. A world trade was established, and the ships of the Atlantean marine traveled the seven seas, bringing rich treasures to the motherland. There was little crime; the arts flourished, and the sciences were cultivated in great universities. Men had no enemies, and war was unknown.
The god Poseidon guarded the destinies of his domains and favored the Atlantic Empire with a good climate and fertile soil.
Men followed the occupations which they pre苯erred and lived a communal existence, together sharing the fruits of their labors. It was Plato's conviction that the human being was not created merely to engage in barter and exchange, but rather to perfect himself as the noblest of the ani衫als, endowed with reason and the natural ruler of the material world.
The Critias then describes the gradual change that came about in the course of the ages. In the beginning, the Atlanteans saw clearly that their wealth and prosperity increased as a result of friendship. But gradually the divine portion of their consciousness began to fade away in them; their souls became diluted with a mortal admixture and human nature gained ascendency. They be苞ame unseemly and lost those spiritual virtues which were the fairest of their precious gifts.
It is the story of how man departed from the perfect pattern of his conduct, and in the end, de要ied the very truths which were the foundations of his strength. With the loss of his spiritual per苞eption, material ambitions increased, and the de貞ire for conquest was born. Men yearned after that which they had not earned and gazed with covetous eyes upon the goods of others.
The rulers of the State were corrupted by the common evil; the ten kings were no longer friends; they no longer conferred together in the temple of Poseidon to decide all matters under the common oath. This was the great league dissolved by selfishness and ambition. It was then that war came into being and with it tyranny and oppres貞ion, and despotism and the exploitation of peoples.
At last, the kings of Atlantis decided to use their common power to enslave all the peoples of the earth. They gathered a vast army and attacked Europe from the sea, even going so far as to be貞iege the Athenian States. And so they broke the law of the gods; for the twelve deities had so di赳ided the earth that to each race and nation was given its proper part.
Zeus, the father of the gods, who carries in his hand the thunderbolts of divine retribution, perceived the evil of the time and resolved to punish the arrogance of the Atlanteans. But even Olympus is a commonwealth, and the other eleven gods were summoned to the council hall of the immortals.
"When all the gods had assembled in conference, Zeus arose among them and addressed them thus--" ... it is with this line that Plato's story of Atlantis ends, and the words of Zeus remain unknown.
But the results of the conference are not left in doubt. Zeus hurled his thunderbolts against the empire of the sea, shaking it with earthquakes and then destroying it by horrible combustion. The only records that remained were in vague traditions and two columns set up under the temple at Sais. The destruction of Atlantis can be interpreted politically as the breaking up of the ideal pattern of government.
So complete was this destruction, that men for茆ot there is a better way of life, and since have accepted the evils of war and crime and poverty as inevitable. The world lost too all sense of its own unity; each man's hand was thereafter raised against his neighbor. The perfect state disap計eared under a deluge of politics; the priests of Poseidon gave way to the priesthood of Mammon.
Plato's political vision was for the restoration of the Empire of the Golden Age. The old ways of the gods must be restored, he was convinced, if human beings are to be preserved from the corrup負ions which they have brought upon themselves. Plato sought this end when he established his uni赳ersity at Athens--the first school of formal educa負ion in history. Here men were taught the great truths of religion, philosophy, science, and politics, to restore to them the vision of the perfect State.
The old Atlantis was gone, dissolved in a sea of human doubts. But the philosophic empire would come again, as a democracy of wise men.
Two thousand years later Lord Bacon re-stated this vision in his New Atlantis.

Nicholas and Helena Roerich
With the current massive outpouring of information regarding the fabled Holy Grail (or Grails), it is impossible to ignore what may be the very first Holy Grail on Earth, the Chintamani Stone, the “Treasure of the World.”
Between 1923-1928 this stone, which first manifested on Earth many thousands of years before the Cup of Christ, was taken by the great Russian artist and mystic Nicholas Roerich into the heartland of the Far East in order to reunite it with the mother stone it had been separated from, a massive jewel that resided in Shambhala, the Land of the Immortals.
This Chintamani Stone, which is of extra-terrestrial origin, had supposedly been brought to Earth by emissaries from a planet orbiting the star Sirius and then handed over to Shambhala’s principal resident, the elusive “King of the World,” a monarch known by many mystics in the East but only by a handful of occultists in the West. In regards to its identity in the Holy Grail legends, the Chintamani Stone appears to be synonymous with the “Stone of Heaven,” the Holy Grail manifestation mentioned by Wolfram von Eschenbach in his famous Grail rendition known as Parzival, which is regarded by most Grail scholars to be the most complete and authoritative of the Grail legends.
The Chintamani Stone certainly fits the profile of Eschenbach’s enigmatic Stone of Heaven because, like its literary counterpart, the Treasure of the World is said to possess both the power to make a human immortal, as well as to have come to Earth from “Heaven” (Sirius), a truth that is supposedly engraved upon it as Sanscrit letters that Roerich once translated as,
“Through the Stars I come. I bring the chalice (Grail) covered with the shield.”
Like Eschenbach’s stone, the Chintamani Stone is, apparently, also green in color, since Roerich is on record as also stating that the Chintamani Stone is similar in appearance to a species of meteorite known as Moldavite, which is dark green in color.
If the Chintamani Stone is indeed Eschenbach’s Stone of Heaven could it also be the original Philosophers Stone, which legends assert could turn a base metal into gold and a human into an immortal deity? Could it be the original Holy Grail, the one that was later emulated by all Holy Grails, including the Cup of Christ and the wood of the True Cross?
With so much evidence in its support of its power and existence, it does indeed appear that the study of the Chintamani Stone should warrant special consideration in any contemporary Holy Grail research.
The Nature and Purpose of the Chintamani Stone
Information is scant concerning the Chintamani Stone, but supposedly the extra-terrestrial stone is stronger than penetrating Radium and its dynamic rays can instantly increase a person’s own vibratory frequency while bestowing upon him or her the ability to see into the past and future, evolve into an immortal human being, or even secure world dominion.
It has also been suggested that the stone can never be adequately tested scientifically because much of it exists in a higher dimensional frequency than the one we exist within.
Other pertinent data regarding the Chintamani Stone maintains that it was brought to Earth by Sirian missionaries during a remote era in order to eventually help precipitate a one-world civilization based upon mutual support, love, and equality. In order to effectuate this lofty goal, the Sirians are believed to have, throughout history, made sure that the stone remained in the possession of certain planetary rulers or organizations that have been in the position of influencing the world on a grand scale.
Since its arrival on Earth, the Chintamani Stone has, for example, been in the possession of he who is the supreme consciousness governing all of the world from an etheric plane, the King of the World, while parts of it have been in the possession of such acclaimed conquerors and empire builders as King Solomon, Genghis Khan and Akbar the Great.
There is some indication that one part of the stone has been the sacred stone of the Kaaba, which has united millions of Moslems around the globe. In recent history, it is known that a portion of the Chintamani Stone was given to the founders of the League of Nations, whose stated goals were the creation of a one-world civilization free of hate and war.
This was the stone that Nicholas Roerich carried back to Shambhala following the collapse of that international organization.
One burning question remains in regards to the current whereabouts of the Chintamani Stone. Did Roerich complete his journey to Shambhala? Is the sacred stone back in the Land of the Immortals? Most historians agree that Roerich did not technically reach Shambhala but instead arrived in a Tibetan location which is intimately connected to it.
One such location is Shigatse, home of the Tashilumpo Monastery and headquarters of the Panchen Lama, one of the ruling lamas of Tibet who is sometimes referred to as higher in the planetary spiritual hierarchy than even the Dalai Lama himself. Legends state that there are many underground tunnels connecting the Tashilumpo Monastery with Shambhala, and it is an accepted truth that certain incumbent Panchen Lamas have physically traveled there over the course of many hundreds of years.
The Third Panchen Lama even wrote a book, called Road to Shambhala, within which he outlined directions on how to travel overland to Shambhala. Another salient connection that forever links the Panchen Lama, Shigatze and Shambhala is the Kalachakra Tantra, an intensive form of Tantric Buddhism taught and practiced in both places.
During the time that Roerich would have visited Shigatse the holy Tibetan city was a world headquarters of the Great White Brotherhood and swarming with Ascended Masters, such as Master Koothumi and Master Morya, an adept who taught Nicholas and his wife, Helena, the path of Agni Yoga, an alchemical path based upon the teachings of the Kalachakra.
Previous to Roerich’s visit in Tibet Madam Blavatsky had similarly made an excursion to Shigatse to study with the Great White Brotherhood and to acquire information for her tomes on esoteric history, which include Isis Unveiled and The Secret Doctrine.
One of Blavatsky’s students, Alice Bailey, is noted for having later received numerous transmissions regarding Shambhala and the King of the World from the Master Djwhal Khul, who was a resident of Shigatse at the time.
From Sirius?
Could the Chintamani Stone have really come from Sirius? Did humans have contact with the Sirians in the distant past?
Perhaps. In the last century anthropologists in Mali discovered that some of the African country’s tribes, such as the Dogon and Bozo tribes, claimed to have once had visitations from Sirian missionaries who acted as their teachers.
To prove their claims these tribes revealed some of the obscure information transmitted to them from their mentors, which included a knowledge of the Sirian grouping of three stars, as well as a knowledge of the moons surrounding certain distant planets in our Solar System. Such information could only be acquired through observation with very high-powered telescopes, a luxury these primitive tribes were never in the position to possess.
Robert Temple, the author of The Sirius Mystery, which records the history of the Dogon people and their encounters with the Sirians, found another possible Earth link with Sirius soon after his book was published.
Members of Freemasonry, who had long known of Sirius as the Great White Lodge in the Galaxy and commonly depicted it in their lodges as the Blazing Star, contacted Temple and invited him to become an initiate of their organization.
Although Temple could not subsequently find explicit indications that Freemasonry had been in direct contact with Sirian missionaries in the past, he did find intriguing clues connecting them to the star Sirius, including the eye within the triangle symbol which currently surmounts the pyramid on the US seal.
This triangle, an ancient Freemasonic symbol, depicts the Grand Architect of the Universe and is closely associated with what the Dogon refer to as the “Eye” of the universe, the dwarf star Digitaria, that is part of the trinitized Sirian grouping of stars and recognized by the tribe as the Creator of the Universe.
The US seal eventually became featured on the back of the US dollar bill during the administration of Franklin Roosevelt, who was himself a high-ranking Freemason and Shriner, and before that it was the symbol of the eighteenth century Illuminati, who sought to achieve the Sirian goal of a one-world civilization although it is believed they did so with less than purely altruistic intentions.
Temple also discovered another clue indicating a close connection between the Freemasons and Sirius: the day of US independence by the Freemasonic fathers, July 4th, is one of the days of the year when our Sun is in its closest alignment with Sirius.
The Return of the Chintamani Stone
When Nicholas Roerich was touring Tibet and Mongolia he constantly heard cries among the Buddhist monks of “It is the time of Shambhala!”
According to the monks, the King of the World would soon sweep down from Shambhala with a huge army to destroy all evil upon the Earth before declaring himself our planet’s eternal ruler.
Supporting his inevitable rule was destined to be the Chintamani Stone, which currently resides in the King’s Tower in the very center of Shambhala.
Roerich and his mentors within the Great White Brotherhood and the Theosophical Society founded by Madam Blavatsky maintain that the army of the King of the World is, in truth, a power emanating from Shambhala that continually raises the frequency of our planet. It was, for example, this power that fueled WWII and, ultimately, led to the fall of the Third Reich, even after the Nazis attempted to harness it for their own self-serving purposes.
Eventually, this transformative power will destroy all energetic blockages that exist at a lower frequency than itself (i.e., negativity, greed, control, etc.) while simultaneously accelerating the evolution of all life forms on Earth. Once it has completed its pre-destined goal, state the Theosophists, a planetary civilization based upon love and equality will finally emerge.
Perhaps then the King of the World and his Chintamani Stone will make their presence known universally to all.
Excerpts from
Nicholas Roerich - The Life and Art of a Russian Master

and the Nicholas Roerich Museum
The Treasure of the World - Chintamaniby Nicholas Roerich“In the Treasure of the World - Chintamani and the Burning of Darkness, we enter the mountains.Both are highly symbolic works illustrating Roerich’s belief in the divine fire-agni that in the new Era will be brought out of the mountains to illumine human consciousness. The first work is a visual presentation of the Tibetan Legend of the Steed of Happiness, on whose back the sacred stone Chintamani - treasure of the world is carried down from the mountain heights.As the horse descends the craggy mountain pass, everything around it is illuminated by the blue flame emanating from the chest that contains the sacred stone. The cliffs that line the pass seem to be sentinels carved out of stone, guarding the steed’s descent.
In the Burning of Darkness the sacred fire is being carried out of an opening in the mountain by a figure in a long white robe. A halo rings his head. Behind him are two similarly garbed and haloed figures. All three are mahatmas. Following them are several figures, heads just visible above a rock.One of them is haloed the others are not. They include a bald figure with a long beard, apparently a rare self- portrait of the artist. The entire nocturnal landscape is bathed in the unearthly blue lights of the sacred flame.”The Burning of Darknessby Nicholas Roerich“He (Roerich) knew that Shambhala is believed to be the earthly link to heaven and that its realm on earth is a secret valley somewhere deep in the Himalayas.There the great masters or mahatmas of all ages reside, guarding its ancient mysteries until such a time as Rigden Djapo, the legendary ruler of Shambhala, assembles his unconquerable army and leads the warriors in a last battle against the forces of evil.When the enemy has been destroyed, the era of Shambhala - of peace, beauty, and truth will begin. He also knew that for the Buddhists, the path to Shambhala is the path to enlightenment and that righteous seekers are guided on their way by a multitude of symbols, signs and messages.”
The History of the United State of American and the Democratic Ideal that were from with her creation have always inspired me to believe that true "Freedom" for mankind have finally be achieved or was it? There is a very dark and sinister side to this new nation creation and those secret societies behind it, for example, almost all of the founding father were "Freemanson" are part of some kind of occult secret group and that this new idea of democracy isn't new and those behind this idea knew this! There are come many esoteric and occults symbols at our nation caption and all over this great nation; that there has to be a connection? What is that connection and why have some much information about the "True History" of this great nation been kept secret from the people who live and vote here? These articles in this post will help explain some of this secret knowledge and information about the true meaning of the USA; also always keep an open mind about any information you read here because the truth is hidden within these words
