The Great Game, the Vril-ya and Theosophy

[David Guyatt]

Thanks Helen (again) and Jan also. Fascinating stuff.

Lytton claimed that there is a psychic energy of immense power, latent in most humans, but being utilised by adepts living in Tibet.

I’m feel sure the bit about "psychic energy of immense power" is probably true. It's been a recurring theme in a lot of the research I have conducted over the years. But like Arthur’s sword it can either be used to hack or to heal - to purloin a phrase from John Boorman’s film Excalibur. I am also quite sure that the purpose of the SS Ahnenerbe search for this secret was to gain access to this corruptive power. In other words to hack.

A recent archaeological dig in the Ukraine discovered SS skeletons showing clear evidence of trepination in a sacred Scythian graveyard. The speculative interpretation is that the Ahnenerbe were drilling for evidence of the Third Eye inside the skulls of the "pure Aryans" of the SS.

The mind boggles. Or should that be ogles?

Trepanation of the skull for the third eye is certainly evidence of extroverted thinking, and is evidence in and of itself that those in the SS responsible for this episode probably missed the deeper point. Unless, of course, there was an underlying ritual purpose to the procedure.

Speaking of curious SS outfits, the SS Charlemagne brigade was composed almost entirely of Frenchmen and has a particular resonance to the story of the Priory of Sion as it pertains to SS Otto Rahn. The following site contains much interesting material on things PoS:

On Rahn I was once told by someone who claimed definite knowledge (i.e., he met him after the war) that Rahn really did not die in an alpine accident and lived a sheltered life in the Vatican post WWII.

Another page from the same website linked above goes into more detail about the founding of the SS Charlemagne brigade inside Lupe (Wolf) Castle and its purpose:

The secret of the Charlemagne Division

But let us return to the castle of Lupé… which had sheltered two famous characters: François Rabelais and… Michel de Nostredame. We can only wonder why they came here…
But it lasted until the Second World War before the Lupé castle would have its most bizarre episode. It is in this castle, under the impulse of Mgr Mayol de Lupé, that the famous S.S. "Charlemagne" Division was created. 
The purpose of this division was to unite, after the war, an aristocracy of which the unavowed and "secret" goal was neither more nor less than the attempt to reconstitute the Holy Germanic Empire. Mgr Mayol de Lupé was Grand Chaplain of this Waffen-SS division, whose number was 33…
One is in right to ask why this "exceptional creation" occurred in the Lupé castle, and nowhere else, as the place had been forgotten, was not famous or did not conform with any of the known military practices or imperatives of the Nazis. 
The latter behaved very discreetly in the village… almost clandestinely. And then there were the German topographers who accompanied the German officers, to carry out strange measurements, in certain places adjoining the castle. Historians and experts in archaeology attest that Nazis were actually stationed within the walls of the castle. To devote themselves to what type of research?
