Rev A [1]
A powerful wing of the Anglo-American Establishment is currently
under investigation by this news service for its role in promoting
the cults of Satanism and Luciferianism, for spawning an entire
subculture of drug-induced violence believed to be behind the recent
pattern of hideous ritual murders. As Dianne Core, a leading British
expert in the battle against Satanism, put it recently, "We are in
the middle of spiritual warfare, and the Satanic weapons are all
pointed at the young."
It is no coincidence, that this wing of the Establishment includes
many of the leading advocates of a New Yalta deal with Moscow--top
figures of the United Nations bureaucracy, and leading elite
families. As we document below, they even look to Mikhail Gorbachov
as the premier world cult leader in what they call their
"Externalized Hierarchy."
In this article, the first of an ongoing series, we present a
dossier of some of the principal institutions and individuals behind
this evil "New Age" movement. The reader will learn, how behind the
oh-so-nice U.N. brochures and talk about "peace," some of the
leading figures of this grouping have been exposed as practicing the
most obscene homosexual and child pornography rituals imaginable.
Take the notorious case of Canon Edward West, the coordinator of the
American association of the Most Venerable Order of St. John.
Eyewitness accounts indicate that during the 1980s, he was a
frequent participant in obscene sexual rituals at homosexual S&M
clubs in Manhattan, including the Mineshaft and the Hellfire Club
(named after an 18th-century English secret Satanic society).
Favorite "entertainment" at the Mineshaft included having children
urinate on the patrons. In the mid-1980s, the club was shut down,
following an investigation by the New York Police Department, which
found links to organized crime circles, including those of John
Zaccaro, the husband of 1984 Democratic vice presidential nominee
Geraldine Ferraro.
- The evil
friends of Bishop Moore -
The Cathedral of St. John the Divine, the medieval temple of the
Episcopalian Archdiocese of New York, has become the mother
institution of the New Age movement in the United States, whose goal
is to eclipse the Age of Pisces (Christianity) with an Age of
Aquarius (Lucifer). The presiding bishop of the cathedral, Bishop
Paul Moore, whose family is heir to the Nabisco company fortune, has
been in the forefront of creating this Satanic "new world order,"
since at least the late 1950s, when, as a priest in Indianapolis,
Indiana, he gave the "People's Temple" cult of Jim Jones its start.
Later in 1977, Bishop Moore rocked the Christian world, when he
ordained a militant lesbian, Ellen Marie Barrett, who told Time
magazine that it was her lesbian love affair that gave her strength
to serve God. Bishop Moore claims that the ordination of lesbians,
and his other Gnostic heresies, are merely part of the ongoing
revelation of God's truth to man by the Holy Spirit, which had been
prophesied by the Disciple John.
With this dissembling rationale, Bishop Moore has transformed the
Cathedral of St. John the Divine into a Gnostic stronghold for such
organizations as: The Lucis Trust, founded in 1922 by Alice Bailey,
a disciple of Theosophist Madame Helena Blavatsky. Originally named
the Lucifer Trust, it became a mother institution of the modern New
Age movement; The Temple of Understanding, which is headquartered at
the cathedral under its president, the Very Reverend Dean James
Parks Morton, dean of the cathedral. It has turned the cathedral
into a harbor for Gnostic religions ranging from Tibetan Buddhism to
Sufi Freemasonry; The medieval village of Lindesfarne, New York,
which is to be the model for a New Age lifestyle, once the Earth has
been purified of its billions of non-white souls; A special ministry
to Sufi Freemasons who were a historical deployment against Ibn Sina
and the Arab Renaissance, and whose modern-day cathedral affiliates
have been linked to the assassination of Egyptian President Anwar
Sadat; The Zen Center, which teaches meditation to the elite of the
Liberal Establishment; gay and lesbian organizations, which seek to
legitimize their sin by arguing that the "beloved disciple" John had
a homosexual affair with Christ, or else by creating Mother Goddess
religions in the cathedral's crypts; a medieval chivalric order
known as the Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St. John,
which, under the direction of the Duke of Gloucester of the British
Royal Family, has inculcated the "Episcopagan" American
Establishment in such Gnostic evil as the necessity to spread
Shi'ite fundamentalism under the Ayatollah Khomeini in Iran, because
the Shah had "sinned" by trying to industrialize his nation.
The serried ranks of the dead among Jim Jones's "Peoples Temple"
cult, who had consumed cyanide-laced Kool-Aid on orders from Jones,
are merely the more public casualties of the Age of Aquarius, when
those bearing the "Mark of the Beast" (666) are to be unleashed upon
the Earth once again. Throughout the United States, the Satanic New
Age movement has grown to become a major threat to the
Judeo-Christian tradition upon which our republic was founded. Among
the more recent signs of this upsurge are the Atlanta child murders,
the case of New York child-beater Joel Steinberg, and the mass
murder of school children in Stockton, California by a drug addict
wearing a "Satan" T-shirt.
- The
Soviet connection -
There is a national security dimension to the growth of the New Age
movement. Starting in 1982, Bishop Moore returned from the Soviet
Union to warn that unless the Anglo-American Establishment carried
out appeasement of the Soviets, the Russians would launch a
thermonuclear first strike. Moore, who entered the 1970s "peace
movement" by visiting with the Vietcong-controlled, underground
peace movement in Vietnam, had by 1983 joined with the pro-terrorist
Institute for Policy Studies and the U.S.A.-Canada Institute of the
U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, to mobilize the American peace
movement to stop the Strategic Defense Initiative. Thirty top Soviet
intelligence officers, who were joined by Bishop Moore, gave
marching orders to the American peace leadership to this effect in
Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1983.
Last February, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine hosted a
"February Fling," sponsored by the Temple of Understanding, which
brought together top Soviet officials to meet with their
counterparts in the West. Through Fr. Luis Dolan, who travels to the
U.S.S.R. every six weeks to get marching orders from officials of
the CPSU International Department-controlled Soviet Peace Center,
the Temple of Understanding overlaps the Center for Soviet-American
Dialogue, which is involved in extensive exchanges, whose purpose is
to remove the "enemy image" of the U.S.S.R. being an "evil empire."
Father Dolan also works with Wainwright House, which has several
programs along the same lines and which hosted a U.S.-U.S.S.R.
Citizens Summit. Spokesmen for the Lucis Trust believe that Mikhail
Gorbachov may be the premier world leader in their "Externalized
Hierarchy," giving impetus to a "Plan" for a "new world order" of
Luciferian values and behavior. The Lucis Trust also carries out
exchanges with the Soviet Union, where they believe "Triangle
Cells'' pray the "Great Invocation'' for the coming Age of Aquarius.
These Luciferians welcome Gorbachov, who bears the "Mark of the
Beast'' on his forehead.
- Isis
priestess of the Aquarian Age -
The New Age movement's enthusiasm for Gorbachov is really no
surprise. The roots of this movement date back to the 1870s, when
Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (nee Princess Hahn in 1831 in
Ekaterinoslav, Georgia) was deployed by a combination of "Black
Hundreds'' forces that included the Okhrana (Czarist secret service)
and the Russian Orthodox Church, to destroy Augustinian Christianity
in the West, through the creation of a Satanic ideology known as
Theosophy, which was a syncretism of Eastern religions. As one
Theosophical Society brochure made clear, its goal was "to oppose
the materialism of science and every form of dogmatic theology,
especially the Christian, which the Chiefs of the Society regard as
particularly pernicious."
The deployment of Madame Blavatsky into the West had been part of
the same effort--called the "Dostoevsky Project" by the
Theosophically-inspired Frankfurt School--which led the Okhrana to
unleash the Scottish Freemasonic forces of the liberal Alexander
Kerensky, then the "dark forces" of the Bolsheviks (many of whom,
including V.I. Lenin, had been trained on the Isle of Capri in the
cult beliefs of the Emperor Tiberius, who murdered Christ), for an
assault upon the Petrine state. Among those principally responsible
for deploying the hashish-addicted Blavatsky into the West were:
Count Alexander Ignatiev, one-time head of the Okhrana as interior
minister, whose family later joined with the Bolshevik Revolution;
Imperial Privy Councilor Prince Aksakov, whose correspondence with
Blavatsky reveals him to be a key controller; Fyodor Dostoevsky,
whose writings have regained popularity under Gorbachov, because
they were a19th-century revival of the Russian Orthodox Church's
"blood-and-soil" doctrine [a Luciferic throwback to previous
evolutionary epochs] that Moscow would become "the Third and Final
Rome"; and, Mikhail, Vladimir, and Vsevelod Soloviev, who, from such
bases as the St. Petersburg Ecclesiastical Academy, propounded the
doctrines of Spiritualism that are being revived in Russia today,
and who profiled Blavatsky as Tentacles of the Blavatsky deployment
extended quickly through the West:
United States - In 1873, Blavatsky traveled to the U.S., where with
the Spiritualist Colonel Olcott, she founded the American
Theosophical Society, whose headquarters became Pasadena,
California. Colonel Olcott had been involved in seances at this time
on a farm in Chittenden, Vermont, with Mary Baker Eddy, who founded
Christian Science as co-extensive with Theosophy. Later, Olcott
accompanied Blavatsky to Adyar, India, which became the spiritual
center of the cult.
Great Britain - In 1883, Blavatsky's disciple Annie Besant, who
later assumed Blavatsky's mantle as High Priestess of Theosophy, was
a co-founder of the British Fabian Society (predecessor of the
Labour Party) together with Gnostic Christians and Spiritualists,
including the Spiritualist Frank Podmore, later British Prime
Minister J. Ramsay Macdonald, Soviet agent Lord Haldane, Lord and
Lady Passfield, the Freemason William Clarke, Earl Bertrand Russell,
Viscount and Viscountess Snowden, Lord Sidney Oliver, Lord Thomson,
and others. In the same year, Scottish noble Douglas Dunglas Home,
who had sponsored Blavatsky as early as 1858 and given seances for
the Czar, returned to Great Britain, where with support of the Cecil
family, he founded the Society for Psychical Research, whose members
included Arthur Conan Doyle, Lord Balfour, Lord Bertrand Russell,
John Dewey, and William James.
Another excrescence of Theosophy was the explicitly Satanist Edward
Aleister Crowley's Order of the Golden Dawn (or, Stella Matutina),
which overlapped the predominantly Anglo-American Ordo Templi
Orientis (OTO) and the Thule Society in Munich, which gave birth to
the Nazi Party through the good offices of Houston Stewart
Chamberlain, Karl Haushofer, Rudolf Hess, and the Wagner Kreis.
Germany - Blavatsky's co-controller, Count Aksakov, established in
Leipzig, Germany a Theosophical magazine, Psychische Studien, which
was influential upon the careers of Sigmund Freud and especially
Carl Jung. It also influenced the schismatic Theosophist Rudolf
Steiner, who founded in 1913 the Dornach, Switzerland-based
Anthroposophy sect, which has lately been a leading influence within
West Germany's Free Democratic Party, and also the seed-crystal in
southern Germany of the fascist Green party. [2] Meanwhile, in the
1920s, a Berlin-based Theosophist, Graf von Reventlow, founded a
European network of the Comintern's Baku Conference of "Oppressed
Peoples,'' which sought to merge Marxism with Sufism.
Switzerland - The Ascona, Switzerland secret base of
Theosophy--centered around a cult of Astarte--was the spiritual
center of the Frankfurt School, which overlapped the Soviet GRU
(military intelligence) through such founders as Hede Massing,
Richard Sorge, and Max Horkheimer, who developed the "Authoritarian
Personality'' dogma to target and destroy those who based their
behavior upon natural law. Ascona was also a spiritual center of the
"Children of the Sun'' gay and lesbian networks, which overlapped
the Philby, Burgess, Maclean spy network in Great Britain. Finally,
Ascona was the religious center for the Theosophical psychiatrist
Carl Jung, popularizer of the Gnostic Bible. Among Jung's
disciple-patients were: Mary Bancroft, the mistress-secretary of
Allen Dulles, who was OSS chief in Switzerland during World War II;
and Mary and Paul Mellon, who, on their return to the U.S. in 1939,
founded the Bollingen Foundation to propagate Gnosticism and a study
center on witchcraft at Princeton University. Also, Lenin himself
participated in cult dances on Monte Verita in Ascona.
- Alice Bailey and the Lucis
(Lucifer) Trust -
Alice La Trobe Bateman was the founder in 1920 of the Lucifer Trust,
which represented a syncretism of Gnostic Christianity with
Blavatsky's Theosophy. Bailey's Gnostic doctrine transformed God
into Nietzschean Will, while Christ is considered merely a lowly
part of the many "Ascended Masters," who form a "Hierarchy," that is
eventually to be "externalized" to carry out a "Plan" for a "new
world order" that is otherwise known to Bailey's disciples as the
Age of Aquarius or Age of Maitreya. The Lucis Trust, which today has
Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) status at the United Nations and
has been given legitimacy by the Cathedral of St. John the Divine,
has spawned an array of New Age fronts, including the Temple of
Understanding.
Born in Britain, Alice was raised an Episcopalian, before separating
from her first husband, a drunken missionary to the United States,
who beat her frequently. Relocated from Britain to the West Coast,
she was recruited into the Pacific Grove Lodge of Theosophy in 1915.
By 1920, she became editor of the American Theosophists' newspaper,
The Messenger. In this same year she married Foster Bailey (a
Scottish Rite Freemason and Co-Mason), and she launched a fight with
Annie Besant for control of Theosophy, which Alice Bailey lost, when
Besant's man, Louis Roger, was elected president. Immediately after
the dust settled, Alice and Foster Bailey founded their own Tibetan
Lodge, then the Lucifer Trust, whose name was abridged in 1922 to
its present Lucis Trust.
By the 1930s, Bailey claimed 200,000 members, and her faction of
Theosophy grew even more rapidly after Krishnamurti in 1939
denounced Besant's scheme to promote him as the Messiah. Throughout
these years, Bailey spent her summers in Ascona, Switzerland, where
along with Mary and Paul Mellon, she attended Jung's Eranos
Conferences. Bailey established a series of fronts, which include:
The Arcane School - Founded in 1923, the school gives correspondence
courses in meditation from its branches in New York, Geneva, London,
and Buenos Aires. A brochure states: "The presentation of the
teaching adapted to the rapidly emerging new civilization stresses
the training of disciples in group formation, a technique which will
characterize the discipleship service in the Aquarian Age."
World Goodwill - Founded in 1932, the organization is recognized by
the United Nations today as an NGO. Ever since the dropping of the
atomic bomb (which is seen by these kooks as a spiritual
manifestation of Luciferian light), Lucis Trust has sought to give
the U.N. a monopoly over nuclear weapons with which to impose a "one
world federalist empire" upon sovereign nations. World Goodwill
works directly with the "world federalists," and is part of the work
to "Externalize the Hierarchy" of "Illumined Minds," which will
usher in an "Age of Maitreya," otherwise interpreted by Bailey to be
the return of Christ prophesied in the biblical book of Revelations.
Triangles - Founded in 1937, Triangles is the name for a global
network of cells, whose members pray a "Great Invocation,"
especially on the night of the full moon, when members of the
Triangle can be influenced by the astrological signs of the zodiac.
Findhorn - This is the sacred community of the New Age movement,
based in Great Britain. Bailey disciple David Spangler, another
explicit Luciferian, became co-director of the Findhorn Foundation,
when he formed the Lorian Association. He sits on the boards of
directors of Planetary Citizens, the secretariat of Planetary
Initiative for the World We Choose (launched at the Cathedral of St.
John in 1982), and is a contributing editor to New Age Magazine.
But, Lucis is not limited to low-level Satanists. When he was
Secretary of Defense in the early-1960s, Robert McNamara prayed to
the full moon along the Potomac River, according to journalist Edith
Roosevelt. The Lucis Trust endorsed McNamara's tenure as head of the
World Bank--which is hardly surprising, since Lucis believes in the
Blavatskyian "Great White Brotherhood," which is consistent with the
neo-malthusian aim of the International Monetary Fund to exterminate
darker-skinned races. [3] Not only does Bailey explicitly seek to
destroy the nation state, which she equates with the "idealism" of
the Age of Pisces, but in her 1954 work Education in the New Age,
she also endorses Nazi eugenics and sex hygiene to purify the race.
Apart from U.N. Secretary General Javier Parez de Cuellar, spokesmen
for Lucis view Mikhail Gorbachov as the greatest world leader
externalizing their "Plan" today.
- The Temple of Understanding
-
The Lucis Trust in 1963 founded a more distanced front group, the
Temple of Understanding, which also has NGO status and worked out of
the U.N. premises directly, until in 1984 it shifted headquarters to
the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. The Lucis Trust and the Temple
remain covertly entwined to this day.
While the chairman of the Temple is Judith Dickerson Hollister,
those involved with its founding were: the late "Isis Priestess" of
anthropology, Dame Margaret Mead of the Order of St. John; Order of
St. John's Canon Edward West; U.N. deputy secretary general Robert
Muellar, who had been involved as well with the Lucis Trust; and one
Winifred McCulloch, leader of the New York-based Teilhard de Chardin
Society.
Dormant for several years after a major expose by Edith Roosevelt,
the Temple was revived at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in
1984 at a ceremony presided over by Bishop Paul Moore and the Dalai
Lama. According to the past executive director, Priscilla Pedersen,
its present board overlaps that of David Rockefeller's Trilateral
Commission. Recent activities of the Temple include:
Global Forum of Spiritual and Parliamentary Leaders on Human
Survival. Held in Oxford, England April 11-15, 1988, its luminaries
included the Dalai Lama, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and Carl
Sagan. Co-organizers of the Global Forum were the Temple of
Understanding and the Global Committee of Parliamentarians on
Population and Development, which latter advocates neo-malthusian
population reduction as the solution to the world's ills. Present
also at the conference were four Soviet Communist Party Central
Committee members, including Dr. Evgenii Velikhov, Vice President of
the Soviet Academy of Sciences. At the Global Forum, Rabbi Adin
Steinsaltz, founder-director of the Israel Institute for Talmudic
Publications, agreed with Velikhov to set up an institute to gather
the Judaica of Russia.
In January 1990, the Oxford Global Forum will be followed by a
Temple of Understanding event in Moscow, which is being sponsored by
the Russian Orthodox Church, the Supreme Soviet, and the Soviet
Academy of Sciences. The main thrust of the follow-on conference
will be to get world religious and political leaders working
together on such neo-malthusian ecological schemes as the
"greenhouse effect" hoax. This is merely a global replay, which has
the backing of the Soviet Union, which agreed to a Dartmouth
Conference proposal in the 1960s to promote ecology in exchange for
unilateral Western arms control deals.
The North American Interfaith Network - It was established last year
to bring together the major religions in a theocratic institutional
network. Its director is Rev. Daniel Anderson, a Lutheran, who was
recently coopted to be executive director of the Temple, working out
of the Cathedral of St. John.
The Wichita North American Assisi Conference - This conference, held
Oct. 30-Nov. 1, 1988 in Wichita, Kansas, was in preparation for the
1993 celebration of the centennial of the launching of the "New
Religions" movement by Chicago Round Tabler William T. Stead. Like
the Global Forum, the Wichita conference brought together American
Indians, Sikhs, Sufis, Buddhists, Islamic fundamentalists, and Jews.
February Fling - This was a two-week celebration at the Cathedral of
St. John in 1988, to promote 100 prominent Soviets. It was
co-sponsored by the Temple of Understanding and the Center for
Soviet-American Dialogue. Catholic priest Fr. Luis Dolan, who sits
on the board of both institutions, was the organizer of the tour.
Father Dolan is head of the Citizens Diplomacy Center of Wainwright
House, which sponsors a multitude of East-West exchange programs
oriented toward removing the "enemy image'' of the U.S.S.R. as an
"evil empire."
Wainwright House's Institute for Spiritual Development was directed
by Judith Hollister, the founding chairman of the Temple of
Understanding. Through Father Dolan, Wainwright House has pledged to
work on four East-West projects in 1989 with the Temple. Among these
is a project on ecology, for which Wainwright House has received
funding from Lawrence Rockefeller to promote.
Another board member of the Temple is the Rabbi Arthur Schneier,
self-described as the "Jewish Armand Hammer." Rabbi Schneier
controls the question of emigration of Jewish Refuseniks, and a
colleague states that he has lined up with Edgar Bronfman to call
for repeal of the Jackson-Vanik trade amendment, because under
Gorbachov, Jewish emigration from the Soviet Union has increased.
-
Center for Soviet-American Dialogue -
The Center is a major back channel between the New Age movement and
the U.S.S.R., and has been taken over by New Age leaders including:
Barbara Marx Hubbard. She is a founding member and co-director of
the Soviet-American Council for Joint Projects. She co-founded
Win-Win-World and is President of the Foundation for Co-Creation.
Her name was placed in nomination for the vice presidency on the
Democratic ticket in 1984. Hubbard, who entered the New Age movement
under the influence of Teilhard de Chardin, created a "human front"
in 1967 of those sharing a belief in transcendent consciousness,
which became the Committee for the Future. Hubbard called this
transcendent consciousness "supra-sex," and she has an extensive
network of congressmen involved in the process of haruspication.
Willis Harman, president of the Institute of Noetic Sciences and
Senior Social Scientist at the Stanford Research Institute
International. The Institute for Noetic Sciences has worked closely
with the Temple of Understanding, while SRI has had among its
trainees such figures as former Secretary of State George Shultz,
who believes not only in global-power sharing "New Yalta"
arrangements with the U.S.S.R., but also in convergence through a
New Age based upon cybernetics. Harman is the brains behind Marilyn
Ferguson, whose book The Aquarian Conspiracy sought to popularize
Luciferian Gnosticism. Harman is also a founding member of Hubbard's
Soviet-American Council for Joint Projects, and he is chairman of
the Independent Commission for a Viable Future. Harman's own 1974
The Changing Image of Man coined the phrase "paradigm shift" to
describe the sought-after transformation from the Age of Pisces to
the Age of Aquarius.
James A. Garrison, executive director of the Soviet-American
Exchange Program at the Esalen Institute, which has been linked
directly to Soviet "psychic espionage" activities of the KGB and GRU,
penetrating the U.S. military and intelligence communities. This is
the modern work of the Blavatsky-Okhrana intelligence deployment,
which works today through the likes of Soviet "spoonbender" Yuri
Geller.
Notes (not in
original article)
[1] Posted version revised 11/18/01. The version previously posted
contained errors due to the fact that I obtained it from
www.omphalos.net/files/anti/EIR_SAT1.html , which is
missing quite a bit of information. I did the best I could at
filling in the missing information, but I left some of it blank, and
some of what I filled in turned out to be wrong.
By sheer luck, I downloaded it again from the aforementioned source
on impulse, and again on impulse opened it with Corel Wordperfect
8.0. To my amazement, the missing information appeared highlighted
in red, although somewhat garbled. With a little work, I was able to
reconstruct it.
[2] Steiner broke from the Blavatsky-Besant-Bailey brand of
"Theosophy" because it had been "hijacked" by various forces with
selfish and evil agendas. He indicated that his mission was to
purify Theosophy. It appears to me that his teachings are being
misused to convey an aura of authority on certain movements which
take them out of context.
[3] The term "white" in this case refers to a class of initiates,
not skin color, although I share Thompson's mistrust of Bailey's
"guides" and doubt that they were members of this benevolent class.
