I also remember Conan Doyle writing a very good Sherlock Holmes story on the Mormons. Can't recall the name though. One of the bigger stories not the short ones.
And Conan Doyle was very much involved in spiritualism and later became associated (as a discarnate entity) with a French occult lodge called The Polaires, who were (big drum roll) deeply embroiled in the Rennes le Chataeu treasure mystery, the Knights Templars and the Nazi treasure seeker, Otto Rahn, Aggartha, the Oracle etc. See the Coppens article The Wooden Book of Montsegur (streuth! Wooden books with palm leaves and Mormon books with gold pages... I need to wrap a wet facecloth around my forehead). The Polaires later became the London based White Eagle Lodge founded by Grace Cook.
And would anyone believe that here again we intersect with a core group around which the Polaires organized themselves.... (another drum roll)... namely "The Nine", which leads us rather conveniently back to Andrija Puharich.
Excuse me, I have to go and sit down. I'm dizzy.
Before departing I'll just that that a thousand years ago, I briefly met the successor of Grace Cook at the London HQ of The White Eagle Lodge. She seemed very nice. The Lodge's library was an occult library of some distinction. The Lodge itself was very largely female in character.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
