‘It should be understood that the doctrines and philosophies expounded by the Order (Illuminati) predate it by millennia. These traditions and beliefs can be traced back through the Freemasons, Rosicrucians, Knights Templars, Mystery Schools of Greece and Egypt, to ancient Sumer and their accounts of the possibly extraterrestrial Annunaki (Jim Marr; Illuminati: The Secret Society That Hijacked the World).’

Recently, I provided a brief book review of Jim Marr’s book: Illuminati; The Secret Society that Hijacked the World. Today, I’ll share with you Jim Marr’s amazing thoughts on the history of the Illuminati.

According to Jim Marr, the Illuminati stole its secret knowledge from ancient secret societies, such as the Rosicrucians and Knights Templars. These secret societies stole this secret knowledge from an ancient advanced civilization known as Sumer, which received the knowledge from extraterrestrial beings known as The Annunaki.

These secret societies were not evil associations. They all believed in God, and they claimed to understand the hidden mysteries of the world. However, they hated the church because they believed they didn’t need anyone to interpret the word of God for them. Besides, they referred to themselves as ‘The Chosen Ones’ since they believed they were the keepers of ancient secret knowledge.

These secret societies led to the founding of the Illuminati in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt, a student of ancient knowledge, and an admirer of ancient secret societies. Weishaupt formed the Illuminati because he wanted to use it to promote justice and equality.

He then focused on recruiting the youth: particularly professionals and individuals from wealthy families.

Later, the Illuminati attracted the interest of high-level society members – such as the scientists, authors, bankers, politicians, and philosophers- who then changed Illuminati’s goals and used it to establish control over the masses. It was then banned in 1785, and Adam Weishaupt was forced into exile. However, despite being banned, the Illuminati continued existing under different forms and names.

Today, it controls the world’s political, economic, religious, and social affairs. Some whistleblowers even claim that the Illuminati is engineering diseases and creating wars to reduce the world’s population. On top of that, several conspiracy theorists believe the Illuminati is currently conducting moon landings and secret space flights.

Anyway, some people believe famous musicians, politicians, writers, and investors are the primary members of The Illuminati, while others claim that the main members are extraterrestrials who also rule other planets.

It’s difficult to know who exactly the Illuminati is, and its specific aims. However, what we surely know is that A RULING CLASS that controls the masses exists, for as Albert Einstein wrote, ‘the ruling class at present, has the schools and press, usually the Church as well, under its thumb. This enables it to organize and sway the emotions of the masses, and make its tool of them (Jim Marr, The Secret Society That Hijacked the World).’

‘You are approaching the universe with a completely wrong instrument; the intellect.’ – Sadhguru, Indian Mystic

The intellect, according to Google dictionary, is ‘the faculty of reasoning and understanding objectively, especially with regard to abstract matters.’

I define it as the ‘logical side of intelligence.’

Modern society, through science and academic education, has encouraged the over-reliance on the intellect hence making us believe that the intellect can help us in the search for Truth.

Little do we know that although the intellect is good at reasoning and solving problems, it’s an unreliable faculty in the search for Truth because it relies on information we’ve gathered from our senses, which are inaccurate. For instance, the sense of sight shows us that it’s impossible to see in the dark, but the owl’s sense of sight allows it to see at night.

As well, the intellect is an unreliable faculty because it relies on the information we’ve gathered from the past. For this reason, it can never help us in the search for Truth because Truth is only realized through a faculty that’s always in the present moment.

Therefore, the intellect, although useful, is limited and can’t help us gain the wisdom we need to understand the universe. The intuition, however, can help us realize all TRUTH regarding the universe because it gathers information from both the past, present, and the future, and as Azriel Reshel puts it, ‘it’s the spark or gateway to higher knowing.’

Intuition enabled ancient men to discover the existence of magic, God, and spiritual beings without studying, and it allowed them to understand many spiritual truths that were used as the foundation of modern religion and technology.

We must thus rely on the intellect while reasoning but depend on the intuition to help us know what the mind can’t understand. The intellect will never help us understand God, the multidimensional-self, spirits, magic, and other esoteric ideas, but the intuition can. You can know everything intuitively, but not through reasoning.

That being said, we must start cultivating our intuitive abilities.

There are many ways of awakening the intuition, but transcending the ego, and being in the present moment are the surest ways of awakening this faculty.

May the universe grant you the wisdom you need to awaken your intuitive abilities.
