About this episode

“Your SoCal Honda dealers are honored to help the community. Our program started the first deaf and hard of hearing football team of its kind in our league.”From the transcript

Alex Rivera joins me for an epic journey through history, drawing on his books like The Sun Lady Unveiled and one co-written with Tracey Twyman. He’ll explore the transformative journey of divine Wisdom across four distinct alchemical stages, moving from deep concealment to full embodiment. The journey begins within the dark prima materia of Templar trial mysteries, dissecting the conflicting accounts and symbolism surrounding Baphomet. It then traces the awakening of suppressed gnosis through the 700-year Cathar prophecy of return and Uriel’s angelic guidance. Finally, the discussion culminates in integrating sacred architecture and restoring the Tree of Life through the Infinity Working.

Welcome everybody to a on bite. This is a special gated stream and I guess full for all you subscribers and those who support this red pill cafeteria on a weekly basis and partial for those. Although I appreciate everybody's company. My name is Miguel Conor's always thought I'd do it outside as yes, the weather is starting to cool a bit here on the Midwest. Some of the leaves are turning brown, but I still want to enjoy the outdoors as long as it's possible because then it's going to be many, many months being indoors. So, uh, not much for the housekeeping, although I'm sure I'll think of something, but today I am very excited as always to be joined by one of my favorite researchers when it comes to all things. No, Stiko, Hermetic, Abala, anything he always brings insights and nobody else brings to the table and that's what a young is about Alex as always.

Thanks for coming on the show. Yeah, totally. I appreciate you letting me on again. Like like the format for sure. And it gives me like a much nicer platform to discuss my ideas, so appreciate that. Oh, pleasure is all ours for sure. And with us to as always, we got on this Saturn this Saturn night. We got the moondog vans vans. How are you doing? I'm doing pretty good. Saturn night is the traditional light for a bath. I was like, I like that. I like that. You had me going for a second. You're good old bathroom. The Nostek dad jokes are something else. So the Nostek memes. Yeah, the Nostek memes are the best. You guys got admit that the Nostek memes get better and better on the internet every year. Absolutely. I really should start showing them on a slide or something.

I like the one you did with what was it the fuck no, this one. That was that was nice. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's all we did. This was not. Now one was not me. Okay. A friend who stole it from some website. He wouldn't tell you know how memes are. You steal him and then they just get passed around. Yeah, that's funny. Yeah, yeah. That's when true and our key the anarchy system works because we're supposed to just steal means and not be ashamed of it. You didn't have to tell people who you stole it from. You just do it. Right. That's how they live. They propagate. Exactly. Like a virus. Yes. Yeah, that the current of Nosis was tries to find somewhere to fix me right. Indeed, indeed. All right. Well, we got a small group already in the Patreon stream. Of course, if you have any questions whether on the YouTube private stream or the Patreon, of course we will get to them.

And yeah, answer your questions. Although we got quite a journey as Alex will be giving us a presentation. We are going on an Odyssey, an unforgettable Odyssey through time and space and high weirdness for sure. So hold on to your seats. Hold on to your as they say and the Hispanic community hold on to your Webels. That's all I have to say. Alex, why don't we get started? Let's really want to get into it. I'm going to put it up now. Where is the button on this one? I'll advance this idea. The aesthetics. He's got a better eye for this. And we can get started right now right here right now. I sure. Yeah. So I thought I put this little presentation together. So I wrote a few different books in the past. I wrote a. Well, the first one was the bathroom at the Temple, Mr. and build, which you can still personal Amazon. And then I also wrote.

Another book called the Sun Lady, and then the latest one after that was the Laurel turns green, which we saw also find Amazon. Now the last book that I'm going to reference isn't a published in physical form yet. I'm so working on that. That's a whole other. These grimoire tombs. They're not easy to edit, you know, it takes a while. But I'm still working on that in the last one, but eventually I'll publish it. Anyway, yeah, this is like an overview of all these books that I've written and some of the concepts and ideas you find in these books. So, and I then I was kind of like thinking about how they are sort of like Corley with one another. And I identified that. Yeah, there's some sort of like alchemical kind of situation going on with everything here. As we will see. So let's move on. So yeah, here's a little little thing of noses right there for us to work. So you have the four alcomal operations.

So the premier criteria, you know, the Nogrado all the way to the Templar mysteries all the way to the tree of life. So at the threshold of wisdom. So I wrote here the Latin meta refers to the boundary limit or turning point. So in the reading of the baffa met this becomes a powerful initiatory symbol. So wisdom encountered at the threshold begins or between the known and the forbidden to the material in the spiritual. So like is that liminal space right so. And I kind of felt like the baffa met book was sort of like an initiation of sorts for not just me. I just feel like like for the whole world really, you know, to be honest that guys materials like very like, you know heavy. So yeah, I mean, so how it all started with this with the baffa met so I used to run a website called the a on I.

It's not active anymore, but you can still find a lot of that material on my sub stack, which I'm still updating. But, but yeah, how that came out with Tracy is that I interviewed her for the website. I was big veneers before. Before I even initiated contact or Facebook and then so then it became sort of like a correspondence situation with her. And then I interview with her on my website. I can have to find those initial interviews, the somewhere in my computer stuff. But I'm eventually I find it. But from there it became a book to start to really strange how it all worked out. Yeah, so so she sort of like a position like offered me to help help her out with her research and that's how the whole thing began. So, you know, I was like very well versed in these all these subjects and also like involved in certain like in one group.

So I was like initiated like an order. I'm not like active anymore like an occultist right at the moment right now, but, but yeah, it was involved in some sort of like, you know, a cult current one point of my life. Maybe I'll get to another point in another interview who knows. Yeah, so that's so that's sort of like gave me the well, that's what trace told me she's like can give me like the authority to kind of like flesh out this book. Right. So that's how the whole thing started. And then from there I kind of went to other subjects, you know, the son lady, which is you know about, you know, this this divine feminine. This appears in different archetypes with the Pacific Yakima for below, you know, ice and such are our restaurant. All that all those different figures, the Virgin Mary, so Laura, they're all like interrelated. But it even goes deeper than that goes into all the capitalist collections of Lilith and Samayal and you know, that's sort of like the

part of the Linchpin of the whole corpus for there. But then we then in the next one, I get into is the Laurel turns green, which is all about this. Well, it's not just about it, but it's about it's framed under this idea of the KFAR prophecy, which we'll get to in a minute later on in the PowerPoint. But um, but I, with that book is it's a bunch of a bunch of essays I put together from the an I website. So and I want to talk about Simon the magician. Ian Bluckus, I'd also talk about a Neoplaton, the Appalainism quite a bit in depth that holding on the age of stuff like that. So and then the last one to go into is called the Infinity Working, which is, which is really focused more on the tree of life and the Kabbalah and a lot of tarot symbolism too. But I think into other stuff like even like the Gateway project of the CIA, which was pretty crazy that self.

So it's all sort of like and it's all interconnected, but I sort of like identifying these books as sort of like an alchemical operation going on here. And which fits with a with the first subject. So basically I'm asking here, you know, the niche book is words wisdom. So this is some types of wisdom going on. You know, he had the baptism wisdom, the bottom of that book. You have the Sun Lady wisdom, which is like this holy version of Sophia, you know, versus the the horror Babylon, you know, she's like these initiate tricks, some like Lilith initially, you know, Adam and even the Garden of Eden in the so hard. But, but yeah, there's all these different forms of wisdom that happens, you know, that we see in. Not just the Bible, all world religions really. But, but yeah, I mean, that's like the sort of like the question that I sort of like.

Sort of ask in each book like, you know, we're, we're, we're shot wisdom be found as a job asks, right. So like later on, think of Job says, you know, Joe, I think now wisdom can only be found in the in the jaws of death and hell, which is a very interesting statement to make, you know, it's like kind of corresponds to the state of the grotto, which will get into. So yeah, this sort of sort of like an outline of what, you know, alchemy is all about, you know, your bake, you're basically breaking down lead, which corresponds to Saturn, of course. This base metal, and then you dissolve it, then you purify what remains of the metals. And then you, you let it sort of like blossom, see where it kind of goes from there from that purification state.

And by acting, acting using like something called the quintessential element, right, just like the fifth elements of alchemy. So that's that's the quickening substance that gives life to your magical operation, which still also corresponds to this concept of the astral light, which will see as well. And then the final stage of this alchemical operation is the rubetto, the reddering or this union of the opposites, which the glyph of the bottom that represents ultimately. And you see that like this idea all over the place, he's on the viable part of it. So, so yeah, so let's start with the baffa, so you see have the charges that were level against the nice simpler were a lot of different things. I mean, they were like, you know, of course, the military order of the Roman Catholic church in the Middle Ages, and there were.

You know, trying to protect various Christian pilgrims, but, but as a story goes, you know, they have a much more complicated agenda, shall we say. So, you know, trace, you know, so trace it, I, you know, sort of like, we did a lot of digging a lot of like sort of like disturbing ideas and concepts that you see throughout the book. You know, a lot of them are very based on like real elite rituals, you know, you know, you see a lot of like YouTube videos saying, oh, real, a cult rituals and, you know, blood oaths and all this kind of stuff and pizegade and, but I mean, but what rituals are we talking about exactly, you know, like, but when you ask, but what would you ask people that like they're there go. I don't know. You know, so. So these are like very specific rituals.

And some of them are, you know, of a darker nature, I would say that supposedly a, allegedly nice simpler practice. Now, do I know it definitely did all these things. I don't know, I don't really know, I mean, but I mean, but like if you look at certain books, which we'll see sort of like sort of like hints at that or just talk about that now. The thing with here's sort of like the issue that I have with all this, you know, trash off into nice simpler, not trying to like defend them or anything, but, but a lot of the accusations leveled against the nice template. Does it all it is rooted in all the accusations that the church fathers level against the nostics. Exactly. There's that. So I mean, are they all are they all true? I mean, I don't think so. I mean, a lot of it was just, you know, based on hearsay and, you know, you have people like, what's this face?

At the fan is saying all this stuff about, you know, drinking seamen and the board of babies and all this kind of stuff. I mean, you know, should out of like, you know, Pizza cake, you know, with a, Maria, a problem of it, you know, right. But I mean, I don't know, it's like, did they really do that? I mean, I mean, if you look at like other like not commodity texts, you know, to read very like aesthetic to me. So I wouldn't really say that they were all like that, you know, that this, this, this, atanomian bent bucko, Miguel, sorry. Except for the paraphrase of shim. That's one exception. Right, right. That one's pretty dearly. Yeah, yeah. And I talk about that one quite a bit in this book. Yeah, yeah. Going to like love craft, love, sex rituals. It's crazy. Like, yeah, I never read anything like it.

But I mean, it's basically saying that the whole universe is like a, is like a womb essentially that it's like being pinch is like continually being penetrated by a demonic penis of some sort. So sort of like reminds me of like, you know, these capitalistic religions of Leviathan and the life and some my own. Right. So there's that going on, which, you know, and then the bottom is very much synthesis of those two snake demons essentially. But anyway, so, so I get to like, so we talk about, you know, adultery demon worship demon, all the tree, the veneration of the mysterious, mysterious head. Then you have Pope Francis of France and Pope, no, sorry, King Philip and Pope Clement deployed the acquisition dismantled the wealthiest military order and Christian them. So it says here, some testimony attributed extraordinary power to the alleged idle or head or idle include, including prosperity or fertility.

The accounts are very sharply and emerged within and inquisitial context later interpreters gave these motifs and more systemic meaning. And then so in the bathroom, it would correspond to the prema materia, which is the the mar the raw material, the universe essentially the building blocks of life, you know, so everything sort of like sprung for this primordial soup of chaos, you know, which is the, which is what the Leviathan represents right. So the negrado is like isn't really a set of failures just a state before the regeneration, you know, which is it's all it's necessary for for there to be regeneration of something has to die in order to be, you know, revived basically just the idea. So, you know, the the whole bathroom at idle, I mean, a lot of people say it's traced to a lot of sleep, I, when you and then you read a love like or watch a lot of videos about the subject.

They always turn to a lot of sleep, right. But, but you know, he actually got that formation from another guy, his name is Joseph fun Hammock Perks, all he was an Orientalist in Austria. So an Orientalist is someone to specialize in a specific form of languages. So the Orientalist in the Middle East, so he was very much involved in that sort of thing of research, but you know, once you've researched that, you know, he can do other. Rap holes, right, including like very occult ones. So, anyway, he wrote this book called Mysterium Baphometis Revolutum, and which is like the source text for, I would say is the Baphomet before she knows Trace, he does, did Trace Twin did talk about that quite a bit in her work as well. In fact, she wrote a whole commentary about it too. It's called meat meat.

Well, you can find on Amazon, but it's published by the state trace, of course, which we find there. But anyway, Ben and Joseph, so so basically, Levi took this image of the Baphomet from this mystery Baphometis Revolutum text. And in his works like, Trace Düssel magic, he talks, he connects the Baphomet with. Chevy is called the heartbeat of America for a reason with SUVs made to move with your rhythm.

With this principle called the Astral Light, which is like they call the universal agent. This universal solvent that transforms dead things into living things essentially. Which is like code for you know, attending the noces or the pearl, the great price, right or the philosopher's stone. So it's all intercal related of course, but it's basically like this current of magic that transforms your will, your intent into reality. So that's what a mission magician does right through different working's not operations.

So it's all part of the great work essentially right. Now, now there's a lot of people don't don't mention this when they talk about bathroom. Now, I don't think we talked about this figure in the bottom of my book, but eventually it will be talking about this in a future tradition of the bathroom. I am thinking of calling another name. We'll see what happens with that because I do have joint copyright. So I can you know work with the IP of basically. So I mean, I made just kind of like, bath and I think code or something. We'll see, I don't know. But I did add like a whole bunch of stuff to it. I didn't take anything away. I just sort of like entered a few different things that didn't really flow from the original manuscript, but, but really just remains untouched. Besides a few different things, but I did add like a whole new chapter to it too, which is all about it's called the I did a kid that chapter to called the secret statutes.

So that's a nice template, which is like a German, a sonic writing. But in that writing, it's like very. It's more it's a lot of yeah, I wish we talked about that that book in the in the bathroom that more because does portray nice template more of a like a sort of like a almost like a cathart initiatory order of a myth, right?

And this is like a, this is like a, this yeah, this eternal and regime that precedes the bathroom at symbol, which is a concocted by Heinrich Kuhnroth. He was a German physician, but he was also into like paracelsis, which he was like an alchemist, basically in the 16th century. Or yeah, and he was also a Christian deocifist as well, interestingly enough, so, but he used a lot of this hermetic and alchemical Christian imagery deformers ideas with these glyphs that he drew. A lot of people don't really talk about very much. I wish like someone would like talk about this guy that dedicated a whole like show to him. Maybe I'll do it. I don't know, that time. Yeah. But, but yeah, it's just basically this, this you know the opposites, right? And they have this black crow or a peacock emerging from, you know, this double headed figure, the rubis, right?

But it is all about, it's all very right phoenix kind of symbolism, right? It's like, and then now, then I also talk about the sacred head, you know, which is an obvious symbol that you see in the bathroom in the mythos, which connects to various figures, surprisingly enough, like including like John the Baptist, you know, and John the Baptist. He was, he essentially started a wisdom mystery called that sort of like morphed into other groups like the Mandans and also like the simonians with, you know, who followed after son, the magician, which I'm going to act as right. And, you know, the nice Templar, you know, they, you know, they view John the Baptist as his patron saint basically. So they identified him, also the, the Freemasons also revered John the Baptist as well as the, the true Messiah and that's what the mandant, the Mandants also believe in as well.

So they sort of like repudate the idea that Jesus the Messiah, he's like a false Messiah. Like it is like, strangely enough, he was sort of like, they were sort of like betray him as the anti Christ, you know, funny enough. Even though he's Jesus, right? Which kind of does kind of sort of connected like this whole idea of the Merubingian too, by the way. Yeah, but yeah, like the whole thing with the, yeah, John the Baptist is really interested in like the whole book called little two books actually called the Clempty Homies and the Clempty Recognitions. So, so it's all about the whole story that went on with John the Baptist and Simon and this other guy to sit there so that like these are like competing magicians who want to take over the order of John, right. But, but in that book, all those two texts, they said that Simon was initiated in Egypt, you know, which is funny because so is Jesus, you know, he was also initiated Egypt to be read other, you know, sources, right.

Well, you at least he went to Egypt or he fled to Egypt, you know, from the, from the massacre that was going on back in Herod, supposedly in the New Testament. But, but what I'm getting at is that like there's, there's sort of like a commonality between like Simon Jesus, although I don't necessarily think that they're the same figure, but I mean there's, there's sort of like this healthy, healthy, nasty competition to figures, you know, so I mean, in a way, I kind of think they like their brothers, you know, kind of like how James is sort of like the brother Jesus, right. But, they could, you know, they're both like people that followed John the Baptist, right. You know, they're both, they're both initiated by John, right. Anyway, so I talked about in this slide, I talk about the jewel skull, which is like this relic that the Templars were involved with. Well, actually there were a trade of many relics, but, you know, Roman Catholicism is very much involved in like, you know, relic, very veneration and, you know, also an Eastern Orthodoxy, so though, so they do take a lot of those ideas from the Templars, for sure.

And also what that comes from paganism as well, so the whole stream of pagan traditions are like reintroduced to a Christian audience basically, right. But, you know, a lot of people think like, you know, it's all witchcraft and all this kind of stuff and, I mean, I don't know, it's just very hard to say. These are all like, like a lot of like, well, you know, the nice temple I work use up using the, this head to prophesy, right. So, what what what happened is they took this head and they use these some sort of like magical curses for not like a parchment or something, and this, the head, the mouth's head, which is pretty crazy, right. And then it animated like a golem essentially. So, so it became like this figure that gave sort of became like an ancient chat to be tea basically, right.

A milleges, you know, it's the game of all this information of like how to like take over the world, right. They're banking. And, you know, Tracy, like did did a whole series on that too. Like she wrote a book called Money Girls and Treatment of Knowledge. She grew into that quite a bit. But, but yeah, I sort of do connect all that. And then also, there's also the idea of the tariff him, which is seeing the Bible, which are these like these households sacred objects. And they're associated with like a biblical patch of passages like divination. So that's, you know, that's where the idea comes from basically. So more likely we're involved with that sort of thing. Yeah. But we'll see. But I mean, that's still all the stuff still up to date. So, but you know, it is very much a reconstruction of the mythos behind the nice sunflower and what they believed.

Now, you see like other guys, you know, that are out there. I mean, I'm not like, you know, throwing shade on them, but, you know, but they do have a much different approach. The nice template are like, you know, like Tim Hogan and all that, you know, those people, I mean, you got to know, but, you know, but, you know, he presents a nice template material much different light, right. But anyway, but I mean, I don't, I don't like to trash that trash talk other fellow initiates. So I won't go there. But anyway, so now, now there's another figure his name is Idra Shah. And he talks about the head of wisdom. He's a, he sort of got Sufi mystic. And he wrote a book called the Sufis. So he proposed that the Arabic Sufi derivation of the off the mat through the Abu. I came up in pronoun, I said, Abu Fahomet. And there's a father of sorts of understanding.

So this proposal belongs to Shah's modern as terror interpretation. So it's so. So it's a little bit different from this, the other meditival accusation of, you know, Bafiq, that being connected to the prophet Muhammad, right, which we'll see. Shah connects the head symbol with the head of knowledge. So this, so it was like this consciousness of the secret that seeks for five or transportation. So, so, so in this bat, sorry, right here for the outcome, go people to theography, this becomes a provocative bridge to inner alchemy. The great work is not only a transformation of matter, but also the consciousness entering the mystery. So, you know, so about the, I mean, start with the mind, but it becomes, you know, bigger as you get into it, when you're initiated in this wisdom. And then, you know, then I do talk about mahaven, bhafim and the assassins. So, you know, the servote here.

Before bhafim became an occult symbol, they malready belong to the polimocal worlds of the crusades and the Templars, operative direct contact to Muslim powers. And then I say that medieval western texts use forms such as the bhafimeth, bhafimeth, you can action to Muhammad along before levy's go headed figure, the word belonged to a Christian polimical vocabulary. That I frequently misinterpreted Islam as adulterous. So, so I wrote here, this makes the Muhammad, Muhammad derivation and important historical explanation for the name distinct from hammer perks, all later, esteric reading of bhafimeth through meat or medis. And then I talk about, you know, the order of assassins. So, the template, I wrote here, the Templars had documented political and military contact with Syrian, Nizari Islamis.

And the community medieval Europeans called the assassins. So, their relationship included conflict diplomacy, you know, and don't trip you pay to temple or so later, esteric writers transformed this real contact into theories of secret Nizhation or doctoral transmission. Those stronger claims require much more caution than that, than the documented historical relationship. So, it's a little bit more complicated with the, with Islam, because, you know, of course, you know, the nice temple were also involved with like violence, you know, inter-Rusul. So, they're trying to clean out clean house or Jerusalem, take over the Solomon's temple. That's kind of funny, like there's like a lot of like, I was reading like some sort of like Masonic ritual or talk about, you know, once a second. How the Nizhish is supposed to like, good a mecca and, and it's like, trekked mecca to kiss this black stone, which is very alchemical in itself, right, but connects to the cobblestone.

So, like, so the Freemasons are like into Islam as well, quite a bit, like, Sufi Islam, surprisingly not, not just, you know, the Kabbalah and Judaism. But then there's another alternative hypothesis to where the Bafah Med where it came comes from besides, you know, Muhammad and so, Fia. So, it's called the, the Paphometa, the lens hypothesis. So, this is, this comes as before, Pam, Pam, Hammer Perksell. So, he proposes that he links the goddess of Paphos, because the Bajo maker is called Mette and the name Bafah Med. So, Paphos. So, yeah, she wrote this book called The Secret, the Secret of Mini Moose, something like that. But this is where I get the information from, but, but she reports that it's all comes from this goddess of Paphos and a Paphos.

So, like, it's like in this hypothesis, the Paphos Mette becomes Paphometa. So, in intermediate form, proposed before, Hammond Perksell's 1818 Baphomet study. And then, Blence, he connects the goddess images, the Mette, the boundary or land makers, making the threshold itself part of the proposed world history. So, then, then, proposed the Paphometa as a root of Baphomet. This is an etymological hypothesis, not established, the reveration. But, but it's all, it's also connected with my opinion. Now, okay, so, let's deal now. Let's, let's bring up some little, let's not be as stuffy and academic right now. My, my credit on my Christmas list. Right. Yeah. God, if only, if only make a, okay, if they're gonna three, we're three printer or something, make these, no.

But yeah, it's just some images that a DBT generated for me. Yeah. Yeah. So, a practice Baphomet, the great mother, well, the last one is also Baphomet. She's the meat basically. Right. Plend the change of the arcons. Let's see here. And then you have some more action figures. Yeah. Yeah. Y'all the balls. And then, so, St. Sophia, Simon Magician, all our favorite heroes. Yeah. We have a playhouse too. Yeah. Yeah, this should be a Masonic playhouse. Right. Yeah. Temple of Solomon. They have a Carl Young. They have Hermes, Trus Magistis. You have I own side and of course.

Yeah, he's the myth rare God of time. You know, funny enough, you see that symbol, the lion symbol on a out of Donald Trump's house in Marlago, by the way. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of like plus ultra symbolism. So no traces really into that, you know, of course, with her stuff hidden hyperspace kingdoms and all that. But yeah, so here's meat, right. Meat meat. So, see, I have different like four different versions, I would say, of the same image. So Joseph Von Hannah Perksall connects. And I think that's what I think is the same thing. Meat and sidebells of same figure sidebell. Was this Roman goddess that, you know, gave birth to Roman civilization. So a lot of people trace the Virgin Mary to sidebell.

And you know, sidebell, she was like, I guess you could call her like connected to like the horror Bob blonde you see in the book of Revelation, which we'll get to. So I don't know if you can see that. But yeah, here's some, here's a drawing of meat. And then you have after that, you actually have a Templar coffer of meat which is turns out it's actually a real thing. It's not like a made up story that Perksall concocted like a lot of scholars claimed he did. So I would say. I think it's like I want to say is I think is genuine, but maybe his interpretation of things might be a little bit quacky. But I mean, I would say his his material of the soul is historically relevant, even to the days since you know we're still doing these ideas and society is in, you know, groups. And then after that, you have ISIS or an image of ice, if it was called comes from a, I think it's like an 18th century drawn really.

I don't think that's an ancient one, but it's a of core cause comes from a text called core Cosmo, which is a hermetic text, which is all about ISIS, structuring a horse in about different magical operations. It does remind me of like it's sort of like a mixture of like something something from the Corpus or Medicine and the book of Enoch because it talks about giants, surprisingly, that book as well. And the Archangels, so the male they all make an appearance there. So does is very reminiscent of that. But when I do talk about that figure in the the Sunlighted book, we're still purchase. And then also there's then after that, you have the bearded meats is another version of meat. She's sort of like a like a transgender version of meat, you know, so it's like a non-baronary bafflement essentially right.

So it's like blending of the opposites and all these different images really. But that's more pronounced in the last one really, of course, mystery meat mystery me right. Yeah, McDonald's. Sorry. No problem. But then there's also these some more images taken from these from the these Templar artifacts that were found in the British Museum. I know Tracy was doing some digging with this and she actually got a breakthrough because a lot of people, like Gendr said earlier, a lot of people assumed that the whole thing was fake, right. I think there's one guy's name is you're in a book called it was about the Nostics, but he was talking about how he talks about people who support perkstall as alchemical quacks or something like that.

Whatever that means. But, but as we'll see as we see now, I mean, these are actually legit, you know, artifacts, you know, hidden in the museum and playing site. So you have like really like these strange images of an axe and a child, which, you know, hints implies, you know, sacrifice for initiation. Now, whether that we take that literal, I mean, I don't know who knows, but maybe then you have a crocodile, which is occurring, catholic or liminal animal, you have the serpent which holds the serpent or sort of the angel, the whole serpent right there, so kind of reminds me of the little bit, and then you have later on in the the next image you have the actual figure of the bottom, you have the horned figure of the Androgen that combines male female, and you have these different people worshipping this idol, right.

You know, if you look at the nights, sorry, the stuff that was written about the nice template, their accusations that there were made against them. So like, their worship of this idols, what like producer downfall essentially. So according to perks, but, but for him perks, all he, he seems to think that the baffa met is really a gnostic symbol ultimately so it's a gnostic, Luciferin sort of like based knowledge essentially right.

Heldery has hidden language. These are all like symbols implying different ideas. So I would just read right here. So you have like, hammered personal reads, conventional template, or hell's read crosses towers, mounted nights as an outer symbolic language that could conceal an inner, nock meaning. Hammer interprets the famous two nights on the one horse seal as symbolic duality, an outer soldier, and an inner adept.

So he also treats seals bearing an M as potentially significant to his meat Sophia hypothesis. So these are the hammers as terror greetings, not a secure evidence of a hidden Templar doctrine, but it does sort of indicate that. And you know, if you look at like Templar seals, the all of the image of a Braxis, which to me, I think also I think it is sort of like the smoking gun evidence. Yeah, maybe they didn't indeed were involved in some form of gnostic religion. Then a perksall he traces the Templar's to the free mason's so he argues that the secret doctrine he attributed to the Templar survived their suppression and appeared in later free masonry. So so hammers reading so you have degraded a Masonic initiation that echoes the inner outer structure he reconstructed for the Templars, then you have the symbolic vocabulary.

And then which you know did Templars of origin bald with and then you have that you have this image of a little kid riding a looks like a phoenix or an eagle. But hammer of right that you know like a phoenix rising from the flames, they most certainly were resurrected in the order of the free mason so there's that. So yeah, and then he there's the slide where we're talking about how sort of look like the arguments for it being authentic and the arguments against these Templar artifacts being fake right. So sorry, I was saying that many objects hammer use lack lack of secure archaeological chain trying them to attempt our commandery was or itself so he compared church sculpture gems coffers and descriptions from different contexts, then read them through the office and oh fight, gnostic framework.

So you have other guys like would challenge hammer so yeah a lot of scholars are like really seem to be very like I rate that person. I get that like why are you like why are you talking about this. But you know here we are talking about right. All these hundreds of years later. So you can't keep the note down right. But yeah, I mean yeah it's very hard to say if it's if it's did they all do all these things we know for sure like I don't know but I mean the evidence does seem to suggest that there were and also involved in some sort of misjudition that absorb you know, various persecuted heretical beliefs for sure. Let me see. And then you have like I took some well I don't want to spend too much on each slide you guys can read it yourselves but but you have like oh fight no system so talk about that so these are like actual well the first your images from the book or the bottom but you know there I talk about you know the this donkey man figure.

That some some punks nearly early second century writing or first century like they were saying that. But in fact I think that was like one of the first depictions of Jesus as a donkey because they're like mocking the idea that you were worshiping you know a man on a cross right. So but somehow the quiddit like this God man with this donkey figure and this donkey figure connects to the Egyptian God set and a lot of I know a lot of different writers like I think it's what's his name yeah David lit while he talks about that you know set right. You know the demure is being well the Jewish joe of a guy being you know similar to set right. So yeah I mean there is that commonality for sure. They have like the oh fight bowl you know which is like these which is a which is a I think was found in Syria so it's a real bowl that was found I think I think that was used for like magical purposes so a lot of like ancient bowls were used for like different you know magical purposes and either like I don't know hexing or cursing or whatever but some sort of like ritual operation use these bowls right.

I guess he's for offerings and I think you have another figures what are those figures that the bulk comprises all around those are like supposedly an oh fight initiates so yeah I wish I could make a little wish make a little bit bigger but you find a book but it those are like so they're sort of like mirror this the Masonic guy doing this hand signal you know above there. Yeah so they like so they think he's hand you know these aluminum out of hand signals so you know all these people are obsessed with right. But you know celebrities aren't supposedly involved with or allegedly involved with and then you have like the or a boroughs figure around the Bajo Med which is like chair like cipher or both the emphasize this the movements return recurrence and secret. Of the cycle so this is like the the ultimate symbol for alchemy right this is according to one alchonostic alchemist I think her name was Mary the prophetess or something like that yeah so she wrote a whole thing and I don't I think I think she's involved with those of most two who's another later.

Nostoc alchemist yeah he's pretty interesting too and we've done yeah we've done shows on him he's awesome yeah yeah he's he's a nearly thinker for sure very very transgressive and very forward thinking in my in my opinion for sure yeah very sathy and in this because yeah yeah absolutely very like but he's very like violent with his with his imagery. Which connects you like later alchemical texts of like you know sacrificing infants and things like that for like rejuvenation and a Tracy talks about that quite a bit in the in the money growth and tree of knowledge as well. But I know he's a very like very disturbing subjects right but you know but you know I did help write the stuff. And then the last one is the oh fight cup which is a new image that Gbt came up with it's kind of cool so I thought I could include in the slide.

And then so yeah then I talk about in the book you know a praxis you know he's like a gnostic composite deity that comes from facilities you know facilities he was now Alexander in the stick. He believed well he was really into like Eastern philosophy especially like Buddhism but but he was like his whole he were like whole commentary of like the gospel Matthew that's that's not lost I wish we still had it but you know a lot of books were you know lost a time of course unfortunately but so it goes but anyway but yeah I mean I just say like you know praxis like this. You guys an image of this myth reic armor which to me start like indicates that maybe like the next template were also trying to continue that stream of a cult knowledge or noses I guess in a way because you know the nice temper and though sorry the the myth reas were also very like militants you know as well.

So you know they they were very much like against you know the female you know the woman so so about like yeah you're with the order order and that's it you were announced you know everything else in life. So and then you know so a lot of people think well maybe where they were doing like I don't know like gay sex or something I mean it's kind of hard to tell but I mean it's like the well the accusations are level against them or they supposedly confessed but anyway. So praxis like talk about how praxis very much similar to the baffa met in that they're both to combine both transcendental and catholic forces into one image right like you know the the androgen essentially. So so this a praxis you know chicken god. He's like a rooster headed he has snakes or tails a whip and shield he's like this great arc on that you know all the demons are afraid of you know to mess with so it's kind of like so I do also quit him like St Michael in a way so you say how St Michael sort of like this you know he's like the one that's powerful enough to you know kick sands ass that I'm having right.

So but anyway then also you have a the number 365 connects to a praxis which is a Greek. It's a practice in much like a Jewish numerology but they calculated a praxis to 365 so it's rose so much like. It's not it's on the tip of my tongue it's a capitalist form of like numerology basically. Dimash. But Dimashria that's the one chase I think but yeah Dimashria yes a lot of people are into Dimashria for sure so but they they sort of like cochlear that in their version of Dimashria right. But you know this all this praxis God is like according to them he's like more powerful than Jehovah or Yalda Bell he's like for them he's like almost like he's like the true image of God essentially.

And you know the whole idea of like you know the this the Holy Grail does connect to the bottom of course because the Holy Grail as it turns out is really.
