Nikola Tesla is Not Who You Think | Secrets of the Knights Templar S1 EP4

Zohar ANCIENT HISTORY1:22:19

Transcription

Imagine a world where the power of ancient civilizations, hidden for centuries, could be unlocked by a single man: Nicola Tesla. The genius inventor, often overlooked, wasn't just an electrical pioneer; he was a modern-day Templar.

Tesla uncovered secrets from ancient texts, learning that the Great Pyramid of Giza wasn't just a tomb, but a massive energy generator capable of broadcasting electricity wirelessly across the planet. He became obsessed with this knowledge, envisioning a world where free energy flowed through the air and land, powering cities and nations. But forces conspired against him; his dream of limitless free energy was crushed by corporate greed.

What if Tesla's ancient discoveries were real? And what if his work could still change the world today, unlocking the secret to free energy for all? An important figure in the history of the world that is often overlooked is a man by the name of Nicola Tesla. Nicola Tesla, who was a Serbian genius, was also a Templar. He began to look at these ancient texts that had been captured by the Templars. He began to look at the prospect of how technologies could be developed, based on things that had been found in the ancient world.

If you recall, one of the things that the Templars discovered in Egypt was a series of arcs. These arcs, which became associated with the Ark of the Covenant, were giant capacitors. They had the ability to build up great electrical potential, especially when a catalyst was put inside of them, which in this case was in the form of Mana—platinum monoatomic atoms in a dry state—that, when placed inside these capacitors of these arcs, would just issue forth an incredible amount of electricity. In fact, it was widely believed amongst Templars who had been studying ancient monuments around the world that it became very clear that these monuments in ancient times were aligned according to what later became known as lay lines, or electromagnetic lines of force that go around the planet, connecting these different monuments.

At the heart of all this was the Great Pyramid of Giza, which itself was built like a giant capacitor. In fact, if you were to stand on top of the Great Pyramid to this day with a bottle with a wet rag on it and hold it up, sparks would start to shoot off of the bottle from the just the natural electricity—static electricity—that builds up from the desert around Giza. It was clear that this great monument was built in antiquity not as a tomb, but for some other purpose.

Between the work of the study of Templars under Napoleon and Bernard Ron Fabra Palat in Egypt, and now that hieroglyphs had actually been cracked with the Rosetta Stone, it became very clear that the Great Pyramid served some other function other than just being a tomb. Considering that the outer dimensions of what was described as the Ark of the Covenant in the Bible were the same size as the inner dimensions as the so-called sarcophagus in the king's chamber of the Great Pyramid, it became very clear that if one of these arcs were placed inside of the Great Pyramid, in the sarcophagus, that it could in fact issue tremendous electricity that would be broadcast throughout the region and along the electromagnetic lines of force, or lay lines, that extended around the planet to the different monuments found throughout the planet. This was something that Tesla became obsessed with.

He also looked at the fact that in Hebrew, the word for copper is Nesh, and the word for serpent is Nes; they're spelled the same way; they just have a different accent on them. Tesla reasoned that if you did take copper and you strung it in a coil much like a serpent and hooked it up to a power source, that you could issue a tremendous amount of electricity from it. In fact, Tesla reasoned that this was probably how Moses was able to cure snake bites in the wilderness, as the story was that Moses had erected a brazen serpent in the wilderness to cure snake bites, almost like a form of idol. The rationale was that this actually released a discharge of electricity, which would cause the poison—the proteins in the poison of the snake bite—to separate, therefore nullifying it and keeping the people from dying.

Tesla went to work trying to create something that replicated, on a smaller scale, what he believed that the Great Pyramid was originally designed to do. The belief was that the Atlanteans in antiquity had originally set up this monument, and it was part of a great power system that had spread throughout the entire Empire of Atlantis, spread throughout the planet, and that something happened between the cataclysm of Atlantis and then the arcs being removed out of it that shut this power system off. But Tesla believed that he could turn this power system back on, so he went to work designing what was later to become known as the Wardenclyffe Tower—something that was a tower, a much smaller scale of the Great Pyramid—which could do the similar function; that could start to broadcast mass amounts of electricity.

He began his research related to this in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in the United States, and he chose the area because the area was known for its thousands of medicine wheels that could be found from the native tribes in the region. It was known to produce incredible electromagnetic phenomena in the form of lightning within the region, so it was a good place to test producing electrical discharge. Ultimately, Tesla's Wardenclyffe Tower model was shut down by J.P. Morgan, who decided that if something like this were implemented, that you couldn't put a meter on how people were using the electricity, and therefore he didn't see how he could make money off of it.

As a result of this, we've switched to other forms of electricity using wires that are stretched across landscapes, where the power is generated at a station, and then power companies can turn off the power, and they can charge for it. But according to Tesla's vision, he had hoped to broadcast electricity through the air and through the land everywhere, so that all you had to do is just plug in what you wanted to power straight into the planet itself in order to power cars and automobiles and airplanes and other things of this nature. Perhaps one day Tesla's dream will still become a reality—certainly not in the battery cars that bear his name today, but in the true way that he intended, which was a way to broadcast this electricity, in a way that he believed that the Atlanteans themselves had done.

In fact, to this day, Templars continue to do studies at the in Egypt, looking at the ancient temples there. In particular, it's believed that the butterfly clips that can be sometimes found between stones at temples, not only in Egypt but across the Atlantic in places like Peru and Bolivia and other places in Central and South America, can be found. Used to be that these areas where there were these butterfly clips between stones—these were metal that had been inside these clamps—and it was believed that these were receivers for the broadcasted electricity itself, so that the temple itself could be powered from this broadcasted electricity that went along the electromagnetic lines of force naturally through the Earth's current. This suggests that there was a worldwide grid in antiquity, and some people have even suggested that this is really what the Grail Quest was all about: traveling along these lines of electromagnetic force from temple to temple that were all connected by this power source that had been coming from the Great Pyramid and other places where these arcs had been. Again, these arcs were capacitors; there's reason why you couldn't touch them without being shocked to death.

In fact, it was even believed that Aaron's Rod was a way of grounding the electricity from the ark so that you could handle it by putting Aaron's Rod into the ground and dropping it against the ark; it discharged the electricity from the box into the ground so that you could therefore open the ark if you needed to, or move it, or do whatever you needed to do with it. But if you allowed the ark just to sit there in these monuments over a relatively short period of time, they would again start to build up tremendous amounts of static electricity, some of which would be discharged through the top of the arc, through the winged figures on the top of the Ark, and this was the presence—the glory presence—that was seen that was believed to be connected with God in the early Hebrew traditions. Nicola Tesla understood all this, and he was trying to find ways to reimplement it into our modern world.

As a result of the work that he did and other scientists that began studying electricity, we now have the electrical grid that we have on the planet today, but it is still a subset of the dream that it was believed that the Atlanteans had in antiquity, and that we could still have in the future, where electricity can be broadcasted through the air and through the land so that everybody has easy access to it. This will give freedom to people once again in the manner that Templars had envisioned. It was also found that through the stimulation of small amounts of electrical current, this helped to stimulate vegetation as well, and this tied into the Grail Legends, which suggested that the Holy Grail brought fertility to the land in much the same way that fertilizer now helps to stimulate the growth of crops, and lightning is a natural—produces natural fertilizer—to areas when it rains. In the same way, these electrical currents, it was believed—it is believed—can help to stimulate plant growth and vegetation growth to help with the growing of crops in feeding the world at large. If something like this were implemented, it would no longer be controlled by the hands of a few; rather, it would put the power back firmly into the hands of the people, and where people would have the means of not only generating larger amounts of food for themselves, but power. It was hoped and believed that these mysteries, along with the other uses of the Mana, would be what the world would need to help us to eventually achieve our larger destiny of going into space, and that our Garden of Eden here on planet Earth could become restored to its natural beauty. This was the dream of Tesla, and this was the dream of the early Templars. This was alluded to within the Grail Legends themselves. Even though we've come a long way as far as this goes, we still have a long way to go.

Now, interestingly enough, we can actually make these arcs today—these capacitors. It just falls upon scientists to do it, and it falls upon the powers that be to implement it. But it is the dream, and it is the hope of Templars past and the future, that this is something that can be implemented. There were other dark forces that started looking into these same ideas and started developing new horrible weapons associated with them. It should be no surprise that as the Nazis came to power within Germany, they too belonged to secret societies that were looking into ancient texts. In particular, the group as the Thule Society began, and the anera of Germany began looking into ancient civilizations to develop their own technologies associated with this. Part of this developed their V2 rocket program, which led to much destruction and world wars, and there began to be an orchestrated effort by the Nazis to suppress any organization that had any Templar roots so that they could take over the technologies and the knowledge to build them themselves up as a power and suppress everyone else.

As a result of this, both in Great Britain and in the United States of America, the Masonic fraternities—the Templar fraternities that were working underground—started to organize to try to stop the Nazis. Unfortunately, one of the things that the Nazis started to develop was the flying craft that could be—that was described in ancient texts. Ancient Indian texts talked about Vimana, or these flying craft, and the ancient Sumerian texts referred to Shanas, which were also flying craft. Hitler became obsessed with trying to develop an anti-gravity device of his own. It was also reasoned that the Ark of the Covenant itself and these other arcs had an ability to somewhat levitate because of the electrical energy that they built up, combined with the monoatomic atoms, or the Mana, that was in them. This caused a weightlessness to the craft—to the ark—which was the reason why the Levites who were in charge of the Ark—two Levites—could carry the ark with rods, even though these arcs would have weighed several tons based on the amount of gold and acacia wood that they were composed of.

In the Americas, Jack Parsons, who had also been a Templar initiate, began to look at developing solid rocket propellant based on old alchemical recipes. He knew that he could take these certain substances, get them to ignite in order to produce the right amount of power for a rocket, but we'll get into that later. The Americans went to work trying to stop Hitler, and in fact, many of the people that we now recognize as trying to stop Hitler were all Templar initiates, including President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Harry Truman—President Harry Truman—as well as many of the generals that were fighting in Great Britain. Likewise, people like Winston Churchill had been initiated into the Masonic fraternity. Meanwhile, Hitler, as a result, went to great pains to create an entire series of propaganda trying to suppress Freemasonry within Germany and throwing Freemasons or anybody else who was connected in any way with the Templar lineages into concentration camps.

World War II became a fight between the Templar fraternities and dark forces trying to stop them. Out of this came Robert Oppenheimer, who was a scientist, but who was first and foremost a Sanskrit scholar. Oppenheimer had been studying the ancient Vedic texts, particularly associated with the Manas, and he realized early on that there was a weapon that could be developed that was probably utilized by the Atlanteans in ancient—in the ancient past—which we now come to know as an atomic bomb. Evidence of this atomic bomb had been found in places like Mohenjo-daro and Harappa near Pakistan and in other areas like Easter Island, where there had been vitrification that had been found, or where rock and sand had been heated so much that it had turned to glass. The only time we've been able to reproduce this is actually through atomic detonations. At places like Mohenjo-daro, they had also found that there had been thousands of people who had died instantly, all holding hands, and the radiation level was several times that of normal, with no sign of foreign invaders or scavengers.

The ancient Indian texts of the Mahabharata, the Ramayana, and other texts talk about these detonations. In fact, they say: "Girka, flying a powerful Vamana, hurled a single projectile charged with all the power of the universe. It was an iron thunderbolt which reduced to ashes the entire race of the Vish and AAS. Clouds roared upwards, showering gravel. Elephants burst into flame. Birds croaked madly. The very elements seemed disturbed. Pottery broke without apparent cause. After a few days that passed over, all foodstuff had become infected. Hair and nails fell out." Now we would recognize today this is obviously something that happens whenever there's an atomic detonation, including with the radiation poisoning, but this is something written about in the ancient Vedic text that Oppenheimer was studying. And in fact, Oppenheimer, in his famous interview, said, "I have become death, the destroyer of worlds." When interviewed at Rochester University 10 years after the Alamagordo nuclear test, they asked him, "Was that the first atomic detonation in history?" And his response was, "Well, yes, in modern history, that is."

Even Harry—President Harry Truman's diary entries on the discovering of the atomic bomb stated that we had discovered an ancient weapon. As terrible as this weapon was, it was the one thing that ensured that World War II would end with the bombs being dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. It was realized that this weapon—this terrible weapon—that had come from antiquity, and it was believed that this was an ancient weapon that had been used by the Atlanteans. But again, this resulted in the former Soviet Union bringing some of the Nazi-captured Nazi scientists back to the Soviet Union, whereas other Nazi scientists ended up having to be brought back to the United States and Great Britain in order to further explore these technologies and to better understand what the Nazis were developing themselves. The V2 program that was established by the Nazis got repurposed in this regard and started to become the new NASA program for the Americans. In fact, Werner Von Braun, who was the—was brought over to the United States to help form NASA and ultimately to establish the Saturn 5 program for going to the Moon. These technologies, which had come from the ancient world and had been rediscovered, were being repurposed in order to develop a new—the new NASA program.

The American government established something known as Operation Paperclip, which was in fact a program designed to bring Nazi scientists over to the United States to develop these technologies further. This program is what then led to the development of NASA and the new rocket programs that came out of NASA, including the Apollo program, the Mercury program, and ultimately the Saturn 5 rocket, which was designed to take astronauts to the moon. The only reason why any of this had happened was because the Templars had originally been looking into these ancient technologies in Egypt and elsewhere. In the Nazi government, they idealized and created a black round table, if you will, somewhat modeled off of The Grail Legends—the table of the Grail Legends—in which they set themselves up as the new Guardians of The Grail as they began to study these technologies. Instead of using the red Templar cross, they adopted the black Iron Cross, the symbol of the Saxons in times past, in order to rebuild themselves up as the new German Empire. The Americans and the British continued to adopt the Red Cross that had been used by the Templars of old and was now associated with St. George slaying the dragon and adopted it as a badge of honor as they fought the Nazis. So the entire World War II really was an effort between esoteric orders fighting each other for the control of technologies, and whoever won this war would control the destiny of the future. In some ways, this was a retelling of the ancient stories: you had King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table of Britain and who bore the Red Cross found amongst the Templars and the Grail initiates fighting against the Saxons of that had been coming from the area of Germany. It was re—it was reacting out again, but now in a world stage.

Somewhat related to this, it was also understood from the ancient texts that the Templars were looking at, and other scientists and archaeologists began to study by the 20th century, that there were descriptions of how in the ancient world—in ancient civilizations—there had been great wars that had occurred as well. These certainly were talked about in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata—these ancient Vedic Indian texts—but one of the things they also talked about is these world—these wars carrying over beyond just Earth itself, and that there was actually a great battle that occurred between the Earth and the Moon in the ancient world. They describe this as—this is why there were the craters that were seen on the moon—is that this was the remnant of some sort of nuclear war that had occurred between Earth and the Moon. And so part of the push then later on with the development of NASA and the Saturn 5 program, it was hoped that by getting to the Moon they would be able to study it further and confirm, in fact, if there had been evidence of any type of previous civilization that had been on the moon, and was there evidence of devastation that had occurred? Did these great wars from antiquity occur beyond the moon and maybe onto other planets like Venus and Mars? Many of the astronauts that were involved in these programs were in fact Freemasons and were involved in the new Templar expressions. Astronauts including people like Buzz Aldrin, Gordon Cooper, John Glenn, Don Isel, and others were all Freemasons and had all been initiated into degrees that were Templar-based within Freemasonry. In fact, the very Apollo mission itself, in many ways, became a symbol directly related to the Emerald Tablet of Hermes, where it talks about its father is the son, its mother is the moon. Apollo was the god of the sun, and of course, the Apollo was going to the moon, uniting the sun and the moon, just as it was found in the Emerald Tablet itself. The Mercury program—again, Mercury was associated with Hermes—the Mercury program prepared the way for the Apollo program. Mercury, as will be recalled, in ancient times, or also known as Hermes, was the winged messenger of the Gods who was seen flying about the sky delivering messages to the gods, and it was hoped with the Mercury program that it was preparing the way for this—that it was preparing humanity to enter into the Space Age. Out of this program ultimately resulted in us going to the moon. This was the hope and the plan. When Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, carrying—being carried with him was in fact this Scottish Rite flag, thus representing the dreams of the Templar fraternity of further exploration. Just as Templars in years past had been involved in exploring from Europe into the new world of the Americas, in a new light now Templars were involved in leaving the planet and exploring space, and with the hopes of going to the moon and beyond.

It has been debated how successful the NASA program has been in this regard. Certainly, NASA has sent satellites into space and other planets at this point. In fact, our recent studies of Mars are finding new things about this planet and have even landed on asteroids far away. But the hope is that all of this is preparing us as humanity collectively to be able to leave planet Earth and colonize other planets into the future, in much the same way that the early Templar explorers had left Europe and were able to colonize in areas like the Americas. Fundamental to this exploration in the future is going to involve the study of these monoatomic atoms that were referred to as Mana and had been—that had in the past been stored in the Ark in the ancient text. This substance, it will be recalled, was directly tied into flying craft. In the ancient Vedic texts, these flying craft were referred to as Vimana, and in the ancient Sumerian text, they refer to as Shimana, the commonality here being the Mana. And even in the text associated with King Solomon, there's an Ethiopian text known as the Kebra Nagast, which specifically talks about Solomon's flying ship which he used to fly from Jerusalem to Ethiopia to visit the Queen of Sheba. Templars have recognized this as an ancient technology that had been utilized in the past by Atlanteans, and the hope is that we will still get to the stage where we're able to utilize these same technologies with our NASA program to eventually be able to explore space and beyond.

In order to do this, though, we'll have to better understand the properties of the monoatomic atoms and how they in fact help lead to levitation or weightlessness. Significant to the moon landing in particular, it should be pointed out that the dates chosen for the moon landing had astrological significance, and this was based on a careful reading of the heavens—the science of astrology—certainly being tied directly to astronomy, but something that had always been fundamental to the Grail text. And in fact, even Parsifal, the original text that said that the Templars were the Grail Guardians, it was said that this was learned from a certain Guiot de Provins, who had—was wise in the way of astrology. Well, this astrological understanding, it's believed, continues to have an influence not only on our world but on our operations in space, and therefore many of the symbolism that still utilized by the NASA program tends to have esoteric meaning behind it that had been developed by the Templars in times past. This is why even with the recent space shuttle programs, they had names like Atlantis and Mir—an ancient name for space and for sea—as well as Columbia, the goddess, and other names. These tied in symbolically and mythologically to the entire tradition that the Templars had been studying and then became implemented by the NASA program.

Even though NASA has become its own program now by the US government, and there are a number of people and institutions and corporations that are involved in going into space, while we knew that there was—we had an idea of what to expect, we also knew that there was a lot of unknowns and that a lot of things could happen and that we may encounter things that humanity at the time might not be ready for, and so they had to ensure that the people who were going up there and seeing these things could keep a secret if they needed to, and that the data that was collected on these missions could be used towards the greater work that the American government at the time was doing and that it wouldn't fall into the hands of the Russians, who had their own space race that was happening at the same time. It was known that these secrets could shape—end up shaping the destiny of humanity, and so therefore they also had to ensure that the people that were doing it had a moral character to them—that they were doing it for the right reasons.

Today, the space program is international, with other countries including the Chinese involved in the studying space, and even Israel has sent things into space at this point, and it appears with new private enterprises also going into space that this is where humanity is heading. But it—none of it could have started without the initial Templar impulse of exploration and with the initial people who were involved in forming NASA who were involved in this Templar current and the initial astronauts who were involved who were also of Templar background. The goal or the hope is that eventually all humanity will come together in a greater effort for greater peace so that we could explore beyond this planet into other worlds. It's understood that we only have so many resources on this planet, and we can only sustain it for so long before we overuse it, which can lead to actually hurting this planet and the inhabitants on it. So there will come a time where we will have to go to other planets elsewhere to colonize to ensure that the delicate balance is preserved for all life on this planet—not just humans—and that it's hoped by going to other planets and colonizing and maybe terraforming these other planets, humanity will be able to continue to survive and learn more about our universe. This led to the dreams of many science fiction writers as well, including people like Gene Roddenberry, who were also Templar initiates and creating things like the Star Trek franchise. In fact, it's no coincidence that Leonard Nimoy chose this sign for Spock, the beloved character Spock in Star Trek. This is certainly something that's found within the Vulcan uses in Star Trek, but it's also found within the early Hebrew tradition; it's associated with the Hebrew letter Shin, associated with fire, and it's being able to capture and harness this fire that we're able to go to the stars. In fact, this Shin, which was associated with the Divine fire, also represented the divine illumination, and it's—and it could be argued, and even in the early myth of Prometheus, that again it was Prometheus who stole the fire from the gods, which of course he was punished for, but it's our hope that by utilizing this Divine fire—the mysteries of the Shin—that we can have this further exploration, and this is something that when Leonard Nimoy needed to come up with a sign for the Vulcan, he chose the Shin—the Divine fire—and of course, Gene Roddenberry, being a Templar initiate, immediately recognized this and agreed to it. For this sign is something that had been used within the Templar tradition for almost a thousand years at this point, and it's something that Templars still use to this day. Hopefully, the dreams of the science fiction writers of us going to the stars...

In peace will come true. It's our responsibility to ensure that if we do go to the Stars, we do so in peace, uh, with the understanding that there is probably other life out out there. And if we're ever going to be a part of a galactic Community, we have to do so in peace, just as in the past Templars were always involved in Exploration.

And this involved not only going new places to explore them, but also exploring not only our outer world but our inner World. Part of this involves studying the ancient Sciences which were believed to have been inherited, uh, in the ancient world from a previous civilization that we now refer to as Atlantis. Modern Templars continue to study these esoteric Sciences. They continue to look at things like cabala of the Jewish tradition and the cabala of the ancient Phoenician Traditions. They continue to look at gnosticism and Gnostic Expressions that can be found throughout the world and including the disciplines of hermeticism which also find their expressions in things like Sufism within the Middle East. This also ties in with many Buddhist thoughts and Hindu related thoughts.

Alchemy continues to be a fundamental part of Templar's study, uh, the understanding of the nature of energy and how with the change of vibration of energy you can change the mass of things. This is will become fundamental in the future not only for developing medicines but also for developing new technologies for us. These are things that the Templars continue to study just today, just as they have in the past. But this has also brought us into the Realms of psychology because psychology is the study of the inner World.

In fact, many great psychologists throughout history were Templars, including Carl Yung who in his psychology of the unconscious specifically says that he became involved in the study of psychology because of a series of dreams that he had in which he encountered a Templar who led him to a Grail castle. And he came to understand that this was the time of alchemy and so he began to study alchemical and Gnostic currents and how the ties in to his own the own symbolism manifesting in The archetypes of his Consciousness. This to this day again is also something that Templars begin to study. Other Sciences including astrology which was fundamental from the beginning study of the Templars also continues to be studied today, and that an understanding of the heavens, their relationship to each other and how they affect the inhabitants and the psychology of planet Earth, the people of planet Earth and elsewhere again are fundamental aspects of Templar study.

At the heart of being a Templar is also this idea of the personal Quest. It's understood now that in the past the quest was about going out, whether it be trying to find Sacred Treasures in the holy land or new lands in which the ideals of templarism could Thrive. But this new Quest involves an inner Quest: how do we go within ourselves as we also go without out into space? It's understood that just as in the past Atlantis had been a great civilization, according to Templar understanding, it had spread all throughout the the the planet and with its technology and its influence and its resources. However, a great cataclysm had come which had wiped it out. This cataclysm completely devastated the world order at the time, and it just takak us almost 12,000 years to get back to where we were 12,000 years ago, at least according to Templar understanding.

Civilization is fragile. It's something that can fall apart at any time. All it takes is a comet or a major asteroid or a major solar flare, uh, hitting our planet to wipe out all technologies that we have. Uh, this would very quickly within only a matter of months caused the destruction and the death of over 80% of the population of the planet. The Templars understand this and so within the Templar Traditions today are programs to ensure that each Templar, each Templar initiate has studied the Arts and the sciences and the keys to preserve civilization, so should civilization fall apart again. Templars have the keys to rebuild civilization, to rebuild social order, to set up new government systems, just as in the past with the understanding of cabala and how it was set up on three pillars, uh, two two Ex two representing extremes and a third middle pillar representing the balance of these two and the the same way this is how the United States government was set up with its three branches of government, its executive, its legislative and its judicial government. And it was hoped that this same model could be applied for rebuilding civilization should it fall apart again.

Let me be clear: the Templars do not want civilization to fall apart. We want to see Humanity continue to thrive and grow. We believe that there's a sacred flame that's within in all people and that this sacred flame comes from God. It is the source, it is the seed of our divine Consciousness and that it often times gets lost within us as we get distracted by the mundane aspects of the world and by the all the challenges that we normally face. The Templars believe that this seed that was within everybody is what gives birth to all creativity, all moral rectitude, all virtue, all possibility that'll allow us to connect not only with it with each other but with any other beings that may be out there within the universe. It is this seed, this sacred flame that's within what is that is going to propel us moving forward into the future. It's also what's going to be allow us to be saved from ourselves.

Humanity has the ability to do great things in the world; it also has the potential to do incredibly destructive things. And we have to move to a place where we are working with all sentient beings on the planet for the good of all, maintaining the balance. We have been given an Eden. Earth is an Eden; it is a paradise if we take care of it, if we take care of our vegetation, if we take care of our animal friends, if we take care of each other, we can grow together and do great things. However, if we ignore the promptings of our that sacred place within ourselves, if we ignore it and look to mundane TI tiations as the thing that guides Us in this world, it'll continue to separate us from each other, from our planet and ultimately from our destiny Beyond this world.

It is H to this day within every Templar tradition, whether it's referring to itself as Templar or Freemasonry or rosacrucian or martinist or any other name, any other label, that the goals of the initiations and the goals of the ceremony and the goals of the teachings of these Traditions is to get people back in touch with themselves and to give them the keys to preserve civilization should a Time come in the future, where it most likely will, in which civilization collapses again like it has with Atlantis, like it had when the Templar order were suppressed. Can contained within each person is this seed and this potential to rebuild civilization. We have a responsibility to preserve what has been built from the past and to build on it into a a greater future. But we also always run the risk of losing the sacred light with which we have been entrusted.

It is the hope that with each year and each new generation that there are new people who find this call within themselves, who answer that the need to go on this sacred quest to find truth, to find light, to find connection with cultures and to preserve this Legacy. The Templars continue to sit on a number of vaults within the Americas that we hope to reveal to the world. Contained within these vaults are artifacts like the arcs and treasures which can be used for the benefit of all mankind, not to be controlled by any one government or any one religion, uh, but rather to be shared and celebrated amongst people of all faiths, of all backgrounds. Helping to protect these Treasures have been the indigenous Native Americans, Indians, First Nation Native American Indians within the Americas, many of whom have been suppressed not only by selfish Powers within the American government throughout time but others. And it's a hope, it's the hope that in the future they too will be able to be celebrated for the work that they have done in in preserving and perpetuating this his shared history that they have had with the Templars.

Our Hope ultimately is that we will come together in our celebration of Mother Earth and that we can live in harmony with our planet, recognizing the injunction that the Earth does not belong to us but that we belong to the Earth. In being proper custodians both of our environment and the inhabitants of it, including our animal friends and people of different, uh, cultures and backgrounds, recognizing that the different religions are simply expressions of a greater Consciousness, a greater one Consciousness that we're all a part of. As we get more in contact with that, this will allow us to not only connect with each other on planet Earth and coming together in peace, but it'll allow us to connect with other beings out there beyond Earth in the Stars. This is our destiny as Templars; this is our hope for the future.

We hope sincerely that those who feel this calling will continue to come to our doors, will learn the Arts and Sciences to preserve civilization and will add their own talents, their own creativity, their own study in this regard to help Propel Humanity forward into our greater Destiny. This will take work, and there are always setbacks, just as there have been in the past. But the Templar flame continues to exist to this day. The red Templar cross continues to burn brightly, representing spiritualizing the material and materializing the spiritual. This is done through the field of Consciousness, and as we come to understand the true nature of Consciousness more, we will realize it's something that exists beyond our individual Minds. It is not confined to just our individual minds, but rather we live in a Consciousness f field, and as we develop technologies that are able to tap into this Consciousness field more, it will allow us to navigate into the stars and take our true destiny with others out there, uh, in not only exploration but in celebration of this greater Consciousness that we we are all a part of.

This of course brings into question the existence of extraterrestrial intelligences, much of which is being talked about now in the media and, uh, even by government agencies. It has been the Templar belief since the very beginning that whether they were called Angels or Gods, these things are described in ancient texts. We can we encourage the continued study of this subject, and we truly believe that there will come a time in our destiny in the future where Humanity will enter into a galactic Community with other extraterrestrial intelligences that are out there. This will only happen though once humanity is able to get along with each other. If we can't even get along with ourselves, why would they allow us to go out into space? Why would they want to associate with us? Why would they have any interest in being concerned about our development, whether from a technological or a psychological or even a spiritual perspective? We have to be able to get along with each other, and this starts with getting along with ourselves.

There's an old saying that says those who are not who are not at peace with themselves are at war with the world. As Templars, we seek to find peace within ourselves so that we can find peace within the world and ultimately peace within the universe as we move forward. Certainly, we will encounter different intelligences in the universe, some of which have our best interests in mind and some of which probably don't, uh, we need to be smart about it, uh, just as Templars have been smart about it in the past. It's true Templars had to get involved in fighting in the past, but it wasn't something that they wanted to do. Ultimately, they wanted to establish peaceful relations with people, other people, other cultures, and this is something that we should constantly be striving to do. We should be striving for peace in the world and peace in the universe. Templar ambassadors continue to strive for this work.

My hope is that this history that we have shared on these episodes have shown this Templar strain ever so steadily and slowly throughout the centuries to try to bring about freedoms, freedom of expression, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, so that ideas can be fostered to to bring to propel Humanity forward to a new Destiny. These freedoms must continue to be celebrated; it is the only way we can move forward into the stars, and it's the only way we can learn from our mistakes. We have to continue to also be responsible with our planet. If we use up all of our resources on our planet, it won't matter if we're trying to get to the Stars; we will end up destroying ourselves. So there has to be a natural balance between our our what we're striving to do and preserving what we have.

Finally, we have reached an age where our technology has outpaced our spirituality. It is imperative that we get back in our spiritual source. This doesn't mean in a dogmatic sense in which we have to follow blindly the instructions of religious institutions, many of which often have abused these privileges throughout history as, uh, history has shown. But rather we need to get back in touch with who we really are spiritually, which connects with each other. The different religions just take on different flavors based on their cultural expressions within a region. But as we become more and more of a world Community, these cultural distinctions are going to start to fade away, and we're going to become a one world Community. This is not to get rid of the, uh, the special attributes that different countries and cultures have have celebrated and preserved, but rather to celebrate them all as one expression that we can all learn from and that we can all embody in different ways.

Ultimately in peace, uh, and for the purpose of propelling us forward as Humanity, as one Humanity going into the Stars, exploring them as Templars have in the past. We are at a cross crossroads right now. We have the ability at this point in time to either destroy ourselves or to reach our new Destiny. You need to make the decision: what are you going to be? And as Templars, we have decided that we're can continue to stand up for human value and freedom and exploration and celebration. And though we look to the past of what the great Atlan civilization may have done 12,000 years ago or more, we are at a point now where the Atlanteans were 12,000 years ago, and we have just as much of a risk of falling apart. We can't allow this to happen; it has been too long of a of a of a trekk of humanity for the last 12,000 years trying to get back to where we were before. We can't let civilization collapse again. The only way we're going to survive is together. The only way we're going to be saved is if we save ourselves. Nobody else is coming to save us; no great beings going to come out of the cloud and fix all the problems that we've created for ourselves. Only we can create; we only we can fix these problems that we've created for for ourselves.

It is my sincere hope and it is the sincere hope of all Templars that as Humanity we will come together to our sacred Destiny and move forward into the Stars, preserving Eden planet Earth that we've inherited. On my journey throughout parts of Britain and Scotland, I ended up at the Grand Lodge of Scotland where I caught up with brother Ian Robertson, the Supreme magus from the Rosacrucian Society of Scotland, to discuss the infamous Rosland Chapel among other things.

Hi, my name is Ian Robertson, and, uh, I'm the co-author of a book called Roslin and the Grail that came out in 2005. But more particularly before that, my grandparents grew up in the village of Roslin, so it's a building that I've known pretty much my whole life. I became a Freemason in 1988, so it took on a different dimension in terms of the St Clair family and their links to Scottish Freemasonry and particular. So Timothy asked me if I would come along today and have a conversation. Um, so good to see you Timothy.

Great to see you. Thanks for thanks for being here with us today, uh, I I just wanted to get your there's there has been a number of authors and historians who have tried to connect the Templars to Roslin Chapel or at least to the region. I know you've done research in this area and it I I'd like to hear your thoughts on how they were connected and how you feel they weren't connected as well.

Okay. I suppose there there's two different kinds of Templars that we talking about, um, the Revival and the Masonic connections which the fam certainly were involved in and the medieval connections. Um, there's so much out there today, you know, if if you gole go, um, Roslin and the Templars, just so much information. I think some of the problems though are that we live in a world of disinformation as well as access to lots of real information, so it's really trying to sift through, um, where's the evidence for that? Where are the sources? What I do know in terms of the medieval Knights Templar in Scotland, they came to an end in 1309 when they were brought to trial here in Edinburgh at, um, Hollywood. Two English knights, one was called Walter the Clifton and a William Middleton, both from the the Yorkshire area, um, North England. And the outcome of the trial was not proven, so they didn't get off scot-free, um, but they were sent on their way with a bit of a cloud over their heads. The claims that were given against them were also given by one Henry and one William Sinclair. Now, the names William and Henry predominate down through the ages in the Sinclair family, but what they said along with other nobles was that they were poor neighbors, they didn't give arms to the poor, and they would seize lands by fair means or foul. So their character wasn't great back then, but a lot of people don't talk about that and talk about the S sorry, the Templars coming to Scotland and finding Sanctuary, but I don't think that's really the case. The Templar presence in Scotland, as with the order of St John, the Hospitallers, were really taking their cues from London, so this was English influenced, and I I've not really found any evidence to the contrary unfortunately.

Later on, however, Freemasonry, which I I would argue, um, supposing bias, but I would argue, um, did develop and grow within Scotland, and when the Templar elements were brought in, the Sinclair family, um, they embraced them. The fourth Earl in particular, fourth of the the Modern Line of ears, um, when he died, he was The Grandmaster of the great Priory of Scotland. So when I have people that are looking for Templars at Roslin, I tend to point them towards the Masonic connection rather than the medieval.

Yep. And what was this time frame? Would you say the time frame for the the neat well, the Sinclair, uh, Grand Master? Well, it's interesting, the picture that we have behind us here, um, the first grandmas of Scotland in 1736, he was born in 1700 and died in 1778, obviously age 78, and he's referred to by Sir Walter Scott, who was also a Templar, Masonic Templar. He was referred to as the last Roslin, so he died without any male heirs, and the family went to a different line, the Modern Line, the Sinclair a Skins, um, and it's through the St Clair a skins that we really get the more modern, um, uh, Masonic connections. 1810, the second Earl of this Modern Line was the grandmas Mason of Scotland, and then the fourth Earl, uh, between 1870 and 73, and then just before his death, Grandmaster of great prary, but he also headed up every other major order in Scotland, so he was steeped in in freemasonry.

That's great. So tell us tell us a little bit more about the gentleman behind us. Well, that's that's fascinating as well. Um, Freemasonry developed in Scotland, and my my opinion, it's probably more Rosacrucian than anything to do with Templars, um, there's strong evidence for that. The development of Freemasonry, we have names like Sir Robert Murray who became a Freemason in 1641, the first speculative Freemason in England because he was actually initiated into the lodge of Edinburgh Mary's Chapel, um, in Newcastle. What we mean by Freemason even then is uncertain because we don't have the first discernable ritual, Masonic ritual until 1696, the Edinburgh Register House manuscript. When you look at that, if you are a Freemason today, you will recognize elements in it that you know, you'll nod your head and say, well, it's it's a bit different, but you know, I can see that this is definitely Masonic. Prior to that, Freemasonry is a word that's used and misused a lot about like Templarism, so, um, really the 17th century we begin to see developments. By the 18th century, Everything Changes. The Grand Lodge of England is set up in 1717, maybe, uh, 1723 before we've really got any evidence, then 1725 we have the Grand Lodge of Ireland, then Scotland follows suit, um, we have old established Freemasonic lodges, proper Freemasonic lodges, but Scotland decided to have a Grandmaster. He wasn't the first choice; in fact, he he was kind of brought in a living th, but what he did that was significant, and today, you know, if you want to be skeptical today, you might call it a bit of spin, he took papers that had been given to his family, um, again, William St cair is a popular name; there was a William Sinclair, um, who was the baron of Roslin back in 1601 and then his son in 1628, and they received letters from the operatives in Scotland, the operative Masons, um, acknowledging them as patrons and Protectors of their craft. The first one didn't seem to have been acknowledged, so the son sent another one in 1628 that has been turned into Patron, sorry, that's been turned into Grand masters of The Craft, but patrons and protectors are something different, but they were used either by him or the powers that be at the time to really give, um, Scottish Freemasonry another layer of authority that the uh sister Grand Lodges didn't have at that point in time.

Oh, that's great. And what can you tell tell us about, uh, the earliest Masonic lodges in Scotland? How far did they go back, um, have records? This this is probably contentious as well. We have we have a a group here in in the Grand Lodge of Scotland who, um, do do fantastic work, and they're called the history and Heritage group, and I'm so glad that they use those two two words, history and Heritage, because a lot of old lodges claim the heritage of the earlier groups that went before them who were different to what they involved, what they evolved into speculatively, um, I think Edinburgh has a a very good showout. I'm not a member of the lodge of Edinburgh, um, Mary's Chapel number one, they have there's operative records that go back, minutes that go back further, um, there's a seal of CA it's given to the incorporation of Rights and Masons of Edinburgh that dates from 1474, sorry, 1475, um, but they claim their first minute as a Masonic lodge, a free Masonic Lodge is 1599, so for me that's really where Freemasonry proper Springs from, 1598, 1599, and throughout the 17th century we see the development of what becomes modern day Freemasonry. And as I mentioned earlier, Timothy, um, the esoteric influences I think are in there, hermetic and Rosacrucian, um, rather than Templar, in my opinion.

Yeah, sure. Is there anything else that you want to say about, uh, Roslin Chapel or or or anything else on this subject? One of the things that was fascinating was, um, um, you know, how in the kind of Victorian age, neo-Gothic, so we started building buildings that looked like they were hundreds of years older, um, there's a guy who's the authority, let me get his name, Professor fet, Richard Faucett, he is the authority on ecclesiastical buildings in Scotland, and, um, there was a a conference, and I went to the conference, and he wasn't making much mention of Roslin Chapel, and I thought that's a that's a real shame, so I caught him at one of the breaks and I said, you've not mentioned Roslin. He said, academic circles, you know, Roslin's turned into a bit of a kind of a bit of a noo area. I said, what's your take on it? He said, well, architecturally, um, the aisles, you know, if you stand in the center and and you look to the aisles, um, the shape of the Arches, he said, are very much, um, from a design a few centuries earlier from France and cstan. Oh, so I thought that was that was interesting. That is the the the fact as well that there's so implying that it could have been even a sersan well Monastery or a structure at some point, or what absolutely fascinates me at least they were they're modeling it after stion.

I think the thing that fascinates me is, um, the Norman stop, you know, these guys who were, um, you know, way back, his principalities were beginning to turn into kingdoms in Europe. We have a group of recents from sort like Norway, Denmark, who weren't favored, so they headed south and landed in what's now, um, northern France, Normandy. And what they did that was really interesting was, um, they entered into, uh, treaties, um, with the King, King Charles the Simple, I think was his title, not a not a flattering title, um, they took on local Customs, they converted to Christianity, they married local women, and they started what was just a sounding, the biggest Stone building, Masonic program in Europe from the fall of the Roman Empire, uh, which is why, um, early Norman architectures called Romanesque because it's based on the the Roman arches, but then develops into the great, um, High Gothic of of the Middle Ages. They influenced Europe massively, um, England obviously 1066, the Battle of Hastings, when William the bastard became William the Conqueror, and, uh, he never took over Scotland, but in some ways the influence definitely did. There's a number of good old Scottish families that aren't they're French Norman that then become Norman Scots, Bruce, Grant, Fraser, V Sinclair, um, so those kind of influences, those European influences, um, I think aramus in a place like Scotland, Scotland as well, because of the wars of Independence, um, architecture, England and Scotland early days were quite similar, then because of the wars we didn't want anything to do with our, um, Southern neighbors, so we're taking influences from France, old Alliance, uh, from the low countries, from Scandinavia. But by the time that Roslin Chapel was built, 15th century, a lot of people have said, yeah, yeah, a lot of foreign Masons came. We actually think it was probably Scottish Masons who had a flare for Innovation, so Roslin Chapel is completely unique and it's a blend of various themes, but all done in a very, um, unique Scottish style in my belief by Scottish stonemasons.

Inside the chapel today, um, there are some influences from a group that were known as the friends of Roslin, um, today it's in the care of the Roslin Chapel trust, which is, um, headed up by, um, the current arol, um, and his wife, who has a a great interest, she's an art historian, and and she's got a great love of U the charpal, the architecture of the artwork within it, um, there's a plinth which I I do wish they'd change it, it says, um, William Sinclair, Knights Templar, 1330, which is obviously after the suppression of the order. I would say William Sinclair, Crusader. There was a a group of Scots when, um, King Robert Bruce, um, died, his wish was that he his heart be taken out to the Church of the Holy sear in Jerusalem. He'd always wanted to go there, but because he was locked in battle through the wars of independence with his great Nemesis, Edward the first, who was a crusader and heard about the death of his father when he was out on I think it was the seventh Crusade, he came back as a as a hardened, um, uh, Warrior, and the first thing he did was, um, annexed Wales, um, so the title that we have today with the Royals, the Prince of Wales, comes from P Edward took the the relics from Wales and Annex Wales into England. His aim was to do exactly the same with Scotland, but the the Scots had other ideas, and and that's famously now, um, referred to as the wars of Independence. Now, when the Bruce died, he was saddened that he couldn't go, so his heart was to be taken. Now, at the time, southern Spain was held by, um, the, um, mes and H the kings of Castile and Antioch. They had put a call out to the Christian Royal, um, heads across Europe to support them in a crusade against the, um, the Islamic, um, um, occupiers in in the South. That

Didn't happen until the Scots decided to go. They got the blessing of the Pope, so it's officially known as a small Crusade, but it's referred to as the Scottish Crusade. And they went out, and they found themselves in a little place called TBA in Spain. Um, and although the Scots um actually suffered a terrible defeat, and that particular William St Clair was killed, as was um uh one of the great Douglas families, the um General to to the Bruce, their bodies were sent back home. Um, so it never got to the Church of the Holy seula. Came back and today is underneath the ruins of um Meo ABI down in the orders um which is another wonderful wonderful building. As a little side, Mel roseabi and Rosland Chapel were kind of used um in a very creative way to influence the Scots Monument. So again, Walter Scott, Freemason, Knights Templar, that wonderful Monument here in Edinburgh dedicated to him has influences from these medieval buildings.
