“guard it well, for it would be the giver of all good things,” and
so he carried it away with him. It became his protecting genius,
and he was able to defeat his enemies by merely showing them the
magic head. In due course it passed into the possession of the
Order.
Mystics have always ascribed considerable power to the god
Saturn, the keeper of the last Gate. Techniques to pass through the Gate
included tantric sexual magic, Indian kundalini yoga, homosexuality and
Gnostic Agapoi love feasts involving male and female secretions. 1328
The infamous Aleister Crowley actively pursued these occult
rituals. He joined the Golden Dawn in 1898. In 1912, he practiced sexual
magic in a spurious and clandestine lodge of the Ordo Templi Orientis in
Berlin. 1329 This included homosexuality, masturbation and the concocting
of an elixir of life from male and female secretions. Aleister Crowley
then plumbed even more perverse and highly sadistic sexual practices at
the Abbey of Thelema or Thule Abbey in Sicily. 1330 This included animal
sacrifice, orgies, bloody scourging, sodomy and invoking the Anti-Christ
to raise the magic power of evil.
Radical behavior seems normal once a consistent, albeit illogical,
frame of reference emerges. This particularly applies in the absence of
checks and balances. When brought to account, many people who have
participated in unpleasant acts cannot understand why they thought it was
acceptable at the time. The old homily absolute power corrupts
absolutely bears out repeatedly.
Although the Inquisition made such accusations against the
Knights Templar, it is still inconclusive whether the inner circles of the
Knights Templar strayed into such a frame of reference. It appears from
testimony given to the inquisition that lower levels in the organization
were relatively ignorant about practices at higher levels. In his righteous
fever, Philippe IV would have been better to impeach only those in the
inner circles rather than attempt to net the whole Order beginning with
fifteen thousand members in France. It was not for another six hundred
years that Vilfredo Pareto enunciated his celebrated eighty-twenty maxim.
In this instance, Pareto's rule would simply hold that eighty percent of the
problem, if it existed, was with twenty percent of the group.
However, records show that the Pope would not intercede on
behalf of the Knights Templar. The Grand Master of the Knights
Templar, Jacques de Molay, declared to the Dominican Inquisition on
November 26, 1308:
