what we call the other world, than we are <strong>of</strong> this one in which we live.<br />

"It is not even very difficult to agree that it is by an abuse <strong>of</strong> language<br />

that we say the 'other world' <strong>of</strong> which we are not, while it is this world which is<br />

truly the other for us."<br />

"...Thus, if the world where we are not, that is what we call the other<br />

world, has, in all instances, priority over this one, it is truly this here world,<br />

where we are, which is the other world, because there exists before it, a term <strong>of</strong><br />

comparison from which it is different; and what we call the other world, being<br />

{one} or the first, <strong>of</strong> necessity is itself <strong>of</strong> itself, and cannot be anything but our<br />

model, and not another world.}" (Claude de Saint Martin, {Le Ministere<br />

de l'Homme-Esprit}, Paris, de L'imprimerie de Migneret, 1802, p.6-8.)<br />

This is Saint Martin's Delphic pro<strong>of</strong> that true reality cannot be accessible<br />

through the sensorium. In fact, what you have just read is an intricate sophistry<br />

attempting to consciously subvert the idea <strong>of</strong> Plato's Cave, a satanic distortion <strong>of</strong><br />

Plato's conception <strong>of</strong> human knowledge. Let me illustrate the point. Let's begin by<br />

making clear the difference between Plato's Cave and the use <strong>of</strong> the same<br />

metaphor by this Phrygian cult <strong>of</strong> Mithra.<br />

Now, let's look at the reason why Saint Martin denied science the ability to<br />

demonstrate the divine nature <strong>of</strong> God. On the one hand, if science is reduced to the<br />

realm <strong>of</strong> ordinary sense perception and to the domain <strong>of</strong> empirical evidence <strong>of</strong><br />

time and space, there is not possibility <strong>of</strong> discovering new physical principles<br />

upon which technological progress is dependent on. That has been, and still is, the<br />

disease <strong>of</strong> European science, for several centuries, and is generally known as<br />

Newtonian or Cartesian empiricism. This has been an American disease, especially<br />

since the dawn <strong>of</strong> the age <strong>of</strong> the baby boomer.<br />

On the other hand, since the invisible world <strong>of</strong> God is not accessible by<br />

those material means, Saint Martin concluded fallaciously that "science" cannot be<br />

useful, nor necessary for understanding the nature <strong>of</strong> man and <strong>of</strong> its principle.<br />

However, since there does exist a "spark <strong>of</strong> divinity" in man, Saint Martin<br />

concludes that it should be used in the communication with the spirits <strong>of</strong> the<br />

invisible world; that is, have contempt for the world <strong>of</strong> the sensorium and <strong>of</strong> the<br />

"man <strong>of</strong> the torrent," the common man. This is how the Martinists develop their<br />

contempt for the common man and for scientific and technological progress. From<br />
