"The Classic Art of the Summit Lighthouse." I wrote this 1 1/2 years ago for the Summit Lighthouse. It was for TSL Now. The article kept growing. Lots of pictures to format. The people who could do it were doing 3 other jobs. We're still looking for a place for it. As a temporary measure I've posted it at my website. By the way you'll learn stuff you never knew you didn't know. Wm
As I was driving home from Bozeman yesterday I had time to reflect on the tragic loss of Charlie Kirk. I recalled a trip to Greece a little over a year ago with Alexandro. Socrates came to mind. We walked the streets of Agora and other places where he conversed with people ususallu the youth. We found his cell where he was sequestered for not acknowledging the Gods recognized by Athens and for corrupting the youth. The definition of Gods can take many forms. Today, there are many people in America that worship gods that are not found in heaven. Charlie was an unabashed Christian. A threat in today's culture. And his main mission was to reach the youth. The last chance to do that is on the college campus. He did it using the Socratic Method. ChatGPT explains it this way:
"The elenchus is the method of questioning that Socrates used in conversations — what we now call the Socratic method.
It’s a form of cross-examination: Socrates would ask someone who claimed to know something (like "What is justice?" or "What is courage?") a series of questions.
Through careful questioning, he would often reveal contradictions in their answers, showing that they didn’t really know what they thought they knew.
The purpose wasn’t just to win an argument, but to lead the person (and the audience) toward deeper understanding and self-examination."
This exactly what Charlie did, and he was very good at it. Probably the best I've ever seen. The far left have attempted to corrupt the youth since the 50's and accelerating in the 60's. They have been very successful. Charlie became a very real threat to a segment of power in America.
I asked AI one more question,
"In short: Socrates was arrested not just for “impiety” and “corrupting the youth,” but because he symbolized a threat to Athenian stability—a gadfly stirring unrest in a city still reeling from war and political upheaval."
"Socrates died in 399 BCE after being sentenced to death by an Athenian jury. Here’s how it happened:
The sentence: After being convicted of impiety and corrupting the youth, Socrates had the chance to propose an alternative penalty (such as a fine or exile). Instead, he half-jokingly suggested he should be rewarded with free meals for life at the Prytaneion (a great honor usually given to Olympic victors). This irritated the jury and likely helped push them toward a death sentence.
The method of execution: In Athens, executions for citizens were carried out by drinking a cup of poisoned hemlock (a mixture containing extracts from the Conium maculatum plant).
The final moments (as described by Plato in the Phaedo):
Socrates spent his last hours calmly discussing the soul and the afterlife with his friends.
When the executioner handed him the cup, he drank it without hesitation.
He walked around until his legs grew heavy, then lay down as the poison slowly paralyzed his body from the feet upward.
His last words, spoken to Crito, were: “Crito, we owe a cock to Asclepius; pay the debt and do not neglect it.” (Scholars interpret this as meaning death was a kind of healing or release, like a cure from illness.)
Soon after, he stopped breathing.
So, Socrates died by willingly drinking hemlock, remaining composed and true to his philosophy to the very end."
Charlie Kirk was warned about threats against his life. He willingly put his life on the line by insisting on reaching out to the youth at risky venues. God bless you, Charlie. You lived a life that was well done. You will be rewarded in heaven.

Visions of the Sacred Heart of Jesus: 4 Mystical Messages to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque-6/14 EWTN Great Britain, ... Second Revelation: July 2, 1674 – Feast of the Visitation St. Margaret Mary Alacoque: “The Divine Heart was presented to me in a throne of flames, more resplendent than a sun, transparent as crystal, with this adorable wound. And it was surrounded with a crown of thorns, signifying the punctures made in it by our sins, and a cross above signifying that from the first instant of
His Incarnation…” “My Divine Master revealed to me that it was His ardent desire to be known, loved and honored by men, and His eager desire to draw them back from the road to perdition, along which Satan is driving them in countless numbers, that induced Him to manifest His Heart to men with all the treasures of love, mercy, grace, sanctification and salvation that It contains.” “This Heart of God must be honored under the form of His heart of flesh, whose image He wanted exposed, and also worn on me and on my heart. “He promised to pour out into the hearts of all those who honor the image of His Heart all the gifts it contains in fullness, and for all those who would wear this image on their persons He promised to imprint His love on their hearts and to destroy all unruly inclinations. “Everywhere this holy image was exposed to be honored, He would pour fourth His graces and blessings. This blessing was, as it were, a final effort of His love. He wanted to bestow upon men during these final centuries such loving redemption in order to snatch them from the control of Satan, whom He intended to destroy.” ...
An additional story: I called Tom Miller the other day (7/7). He told me about an incredible meeting he had with an Indian Hindu family at OfficeMax. I think he used the word miracle too. A woman was there with her mom and daughter. The little girl was quite young, 4 to 5 years old. Tom is fearless when it comes to talking to strangers about spiritual subjects. One place he intereacts with people is at OfficeMax. He brings quite a few pictures of his art to be printed. Inevitably he strikes up a conversations with people who are interested. The little girl loved his elemental picture so he gave it to here. Then as the girl stepped back, admiring her new picture, he pulled out his new Serapis Bey picture. The girl was about 10 ft. away. When she saw that picture not knowing who the portrait was of, she ran to Tom, grabbed the portrait and hugged it close to her chest. Think about that for a moment.
I am reminded of sayings like,'out of the mouths of babes,' and 'a little child shall lead them.' And it is said that a picture of an individual at age 4 or 5 is the most accurate picture of the soul.
Elizabeth Clare Prophet from 12/30/77:
“I will never forget how impressed I was by this law [that a master can place his electronic presence on a picture.] on the day of the baptism of one of our children. It was in Washington, D.C., at a conference. I was carrying a child who was just a few weeks old. Mark was at the platform as the Messenger.
“ "There was a picture of El Morya on the altar. It was a very large portrait, and Morya was there for the baptism of the child. Mark instructed me to carry the child before the picture. I came and stood with the child about two and a half feet away from the picture. Then Mark said to me, "Come closer to the picture."
“"I moved up to about a foot away. Then Mark repeated, "Come closer" until I had the child about six inches away from the Master's picture. Then the ceremony began.
"It was one of the greatest lessons of my life. I realized that El Morya was projecting certain energies of his consciousness through the forcefield of that picture, and a certain proximity was necessary for the intensity of the transfer of energy.” “
I suspect that this little Indian girl received a blesssing from the Hierarch of the Ascension Temple at the northern edge of Tucson, at an OfficeMax no less, that will last a very long time. But it doesn't end there, she got to take the picture home with her.

Pre-order $21.95 From Amazon: This book stands with respect on the shoulders of four centuries of Francis Bacon’s biographers, referencing historical and cipher inquiries about his noble person and transcendent body of work, but pushing further to ask: Did his vision for the ages, the Great Instauration, die with him?
The premise of the fine, foregoing biographies has been to discern and explain the secrets of a great, historic personality, perhaps the world’s greatest genius, from a fixed birthdate to a fixed date of death. The less conventional premise of this book is to explain the context of the life of the person, Francis Bacon, as one crucial chapter within a long continuity of lifetimes, yet unending.
Francis, and those closest to him, manifested the beginning of the Great Instauration in the form of an extraordinary array of civilization-building services, sacrificially, under persecution, for the love of humanity and the latent divinity within the people. Francis’ conclave of literary men saw themselves as brothers, demonstrating a constructive vision and true charity, outside the churches which had suppressed as heresy what the people needed to know about nature and themselves.
How did twelve-year old Francis see the need and then generate the beneficial concept of the Great Instauration, meaning the restoration of a golden age of abundance, a paradise lost? This would require prior knowledge and likely actual eng was reading Ascendedagement in such a civilization. Why was it lost? Why did he persevere under Job-like trials to produce a legacy of enlightenment he knew would only bear fruit long after his passing? And, is a soul of this magnitude lost forever to humanity at his passing? None of these questions can be answered entirely by original source documents, especially when for safety’s sake Francis deliberately hid or obscured the records of that lifetime.
To answer the questions, the scope of Elizabeth Clare Prophet’s biography of Francis Bacon honors the existing body of documented research and then necessarily expands the lens of discovery to summarize a continuous chain of prior lives, the lifestream of this soul. Editor: I'm reading it now. Will review it when done
New book sheds light on the historical mystery of Rennes-le-Château in France Breakthrough solutions to one of the great unsolved enigmas of our times-10/31 By: Ignotum Press, MANCHESTER, U.K. - PRLog.
-- A newly released book, The Map and the Manuscript: Journeys in the Mysteries of the Two Rennes by Simon M. Miles, offers startling new insights into the fascinating enigma of the Affair of Rennes-le-Château. The subject of a string of best-sellers over the years, from The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail (1981) by Lincoln, Baigent and Leigh, to one of the biggest novels of all time, The Da Vinci Code (2003) by Dan Brown, the mystery has given rise to literally hundreds of books, documentaries and movies, but until now, many questions at the heart of the Affair have remained unsolved.
Author Simon M. Miles describes his new book:
"The riddle of Rennes-le-Château has fascinated me ever since I watched a BBC documentary on the subject as a teenager in the 1970s. Later, I spent over twenty years investigating this extraordinary nest of puzzles, including five years living in a local village close to the area. In The Map and the Manuscript, I present the results of my work, including new and compelling breakthrough solutions to some longstanding problems which have intrigued readers and researchers for decades."
The story was first brought to wide public attention in the late 1960s in France with the publication of The Gold of Rennes (1967) by Gérard de Sède. It told the story of a priest in the tiny village of Rennes-le-Château in the Languedoc in the late 19th century who discovered something during renovations to his 9th century church, dedicated to Mary Magdalene, that led him to immense wealth. ...
Editor: There are two very good reviews at the Amazon link. One of them is by Christina Waldman who sent me an email and heads-up about this book. Thanks Christina. And as the second reviewer says, this book "contains everything I love: secrets, cryptography, puzzles, riddles, geometry, wordplay and more." ... Man, I have to stop buying books on Templars, Cathars, Bacon, Rosicrucians, etc, but not yet. I think I'm going to have to get this Kindle edi
Is The Holy Grail Hidden In The Works Of William Shakespeare?-7/6 The London Economic, by Timothy Arden;
According to new research, the elusive Holy Grail may have finally been discovered … encoded within the plays of William Shakespeare. Indeed, one of hundreds of subtle references the Bard seemingly makes to the Holy Grail could be the ‘Poisoned Chalice’ prophesied by Macbeth to bring about his ultimate downfall.
Shakespeare expert Paul Hunting has spent nearly a decade analysing the Bard’s most famous plays. His bestselling new book, Shakespeare’s Holy Grail: The Ancient Secret Revealed, focuses on three of them: Macbeth, Hamlet and The Tempest. In order to perceive what he believes are hidden spiritual meanings within, Hunting asks radical unorthodox questions such as, ‘Is Macbeth the story of how Satan was defeated by Christ?’ ‘Is Hamlet the story of how Christ defeated Satan?’ He firmly believes the answer is ‘yes’, and that these plays contain a multi-layered code that reveals secret spiritual teachings, the true ‘Holy Grail’, dating back thousands of years.
The Holy Grail may finally have been discovered… hidden in William Shakespeare’s plays, experts revealed yesterday. Popularly believed to have been the chalice that Jesus drank from at the Last Supper, the sacred relic has been searched for since the Middle Ages. The elusive object, which according to tradition was also used to collect Christ’s blood at the Crucifixion, is said to hold mystical powers and its whereabouts has preoccupied generations of amateur and professional academics alike. But despite this, the Holy Grail has never been found. According to a new theory, however, the fabled artefact may not be a cup at all but the key to a collection of radical spiritual teachings shared by Jesus that have been supressed for nearly 2,000 years. And, it is claimed, this “forbidden knowledge” has been right under our noses for centuries, locked away within the 37 plays of William Shakespeare. ...

The 100 Greatest Spiritual Books of All Time. Reverse Spins,
Greatest means the higher truths as well as the greatest impact on the world, a nation, population or the youth. As with any list of this kind, there are going to be 5 to 10 books that you think should be on this list. We may even agree with you. If so, we are going to have to subtract an equal number of books.
We will get to the great historical works, but we’d like to begin with the year 1875, when the Ascended Masters stepped forward for the first time in a very, very long time. They were preparing the world for the Aquarian Age and the new hierarch for the next 2,000 years, Saint Germain.
The year of 1875 was a pivotal year in spiritual history and astrology. This was the time that the old Occult Law was able to be set aside and all seekers on earth received a great gift of freedom and enlightenment. Previously, these teachings were only available in mystery schools for worthy disciples. Key spiritual teachings started to be released in the late 1800’s and then accelerated in the 1930’s and ever since. You will find many of these treasures here. We begin then, with Theosophy and three of their best:
1. The Secret Doctrine, the one, the only, the classic, but a difficult read.
2. The Masters and the Path, by C.W. Leadbeater. Great teachings from Leadbeater and the masters.
3. The Mahatma Letters, by A.P. Sinnett. Learn how intimate the masters can be. ... >>> More
The Greatest Story Never Told: How the Knights Templar created Europe's first nation-state and a home for the Grail-6/29 View Zone review of Freddy Silva's book.
In 1159 the first king of Portugal, Afonso Henriques, placed a mysterious seal on a charter that awarded the Knights Templar one third of his new, hard-won territory -- an extraordinary move for a new monarch. On this strip of land the Templars would erect they most famous and lasting monuments: the Mother of All Churches dedicated to Mary Magdalene, and a rotunda with no door; visitors accessed the interior of the building via a secret chamber used for the investiture of new knights, or to administer the inner brotherhood's most secret rite, the 'raising of the dead'. The king of Portugal's seal on the Charter of Ceras awarding the Templars a third of the country. But why does it read PORTUG-R-AL ? The king's seal contains an anagram and reveals why the Templars were awarded this territory and why they patiently waited forty years to receive it. Secret societies love their symbols because, just like parables, to the casual viewer they convey one message while to the initiate of the Mysteries they conceal another.
At first sight the seal with its scrambled letters form the word PORTUGAL. To the esoteric reader it reveals something altogether deeper, an added R, PORTU-GRAL. But to an initiate it reads, in Portuguese, POR TU O GRAL: "Through You The Grail." Is it possible the Templars inherited one-third of Portugal under unusual circumstances and there deposited their most famous artifact?
To understand how we got to this point we must first return to the moment when the Templars became an official order. In 1118 a new king of Jerusalem was chosen, Baudoin de Bourcq. Barely had Baudoin gotten used to his newly appointed seat when he received a visit from Hugues de Payen and Godefroi de Saint-Omer, as though the two proto-Templars were presenting their credentials. Whatever Hugues and Godefroi pitched the new king it sold him, and soon after, a small, close-knit group of knights moved into premises on Temple Mount to became officially known as the Knights Templar.
This is the official historical record. But new evidence shows that, seven years earlier, the Templars were already present and materially active in another land two thousand miles to the west, and through their intervention, this secret endeavour became their greatest accomplishment -- the creation of Europe's first independent nation-state.
It's the close of the 11th century. There is no France, no Spain, and the German states are largely under the tutelage of the Holy Roman Empire. After riding west to help the Castillian king reclaim his lands from the Moors, a knight named Henri of Burgundy inherits the Atlantic port city of Porto Cale and its surrounding territory -- the small county of Portucale -- whereupon Henri changes his name, in Portuguese, to Count Dom Henrique. He had barely time to enjoy his new status when he was asked to set sail for Jerusalem, arriving just after its conquest by Crusaders. Little did Dom Henrique know that his decision to sail to Palestine would mark a pivotal moment in the history of his newly-acquired land, for the people he'd meet in Jerusalem would one day shape the destiny of his tiny territory. ...
Ghosts of Atlantis: How the Echoes of Lost Civilizations Influence Our Modern World Paperback – April 6, 2021 by J. Douglas Kenyon Doug Kenyon's latest book from the pages of his popular Atlantis Rising magazine. Here is the Amazon write-up:
An intensive investigation into the evidence for a forgotten fountainhead of civilization lost at the end of the last ice age
• Reveals evidence of advanced ancient technology, anomalous ancient maps, time travel, crystal science, ancient Armageddon, and Atlantis in the Bible
• Explores the true age of the Sphinx, the Stone Age high-tech found at Gobekli Tepe, the truth of Rapa Nui (Easter Island), the Zep Tepi monuments of Egypt, the mysteries of the Gulf of Cambay, and what lies beneath the ice of Antarctica
• Examines the advanced knowledge of the ancients and how the search for Atlantis and other lost worlds reflects the search for the lost soul of humanity
We live within the ruins of an ancient civilization whose vast size has rendered it invisible. Remembered in myth as Atlantis, Lemuria, or other lost world archetypes, the remains of this advanced civilization have lain buried for millennia beneath the deserts and oceans of the world, leaving us many mysterious and inexplicable clues.
Investigating the perennial myth of a forgotten fountainhead of civilization, J. Douglas Kenyon presents extensive physical and spiritual evidence of a lost great culture, the collective amnesia that wiped it from planetary memory, and the countless ways ancient catastrophes still haunt modern civilization. He explores evidence of advanced ancient technology, anomalous ancient maps, extraterrestrial influence, time travel, crystal science, and the true age of the Sphinx. He examines evidence of Atlantis in the Bible and ancient Armageddon, the Stone Age high-tech found at Gobekli Tepe, the truth of Rapa Nui (Easter Island), the Zep Tepi monuments of Egypt, the mysteries of the Gulf of Cambay, and what lies beneath the ice of Antarctica. He looks at extinction events, Earth’s connection with Mars, and how our DNA reveals that humanity has had enough time to evolve civilization and lose it more than once.
Exploring the advanced esoteric and spiritual knowledge of the ancients, Kenyon shows that the search for Atlantis and other lost worlds reflects the search for the lost soul of humanity. Drawing upon Velikovsky’s notion of a species-wide amnesia caused by the trauma of losing an entire civilization, he reveals how the virtual ruins of a lost history are buried deep in our collective unconscious, constantly tugging at our awareness. As Kenyon reveals, by overcoming “the Great Forgetting,” humanity can find its way out of the haunted labyrinth in which we find ourselves lost today and rediscover the heights of spiritual and technological advancement of our ancient ancestors.

The Esoteric Origins of Freemasonry, the Rosicrucians and the Lost Symbols Of Ancient Egypt-4/14 By William C. House, Reverse Spins
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"The critics can go to hell. We don't know half enough about Lord Bacon." —Frederich Nietzsche
----------------------------------------------------------------- ... THE PROPHECY OF PARACELSUS, AND THE UNIVERSAL REFORMATION OF THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD.
From: The Real History of the Rosicrucians by Arthur Edward Waite [1887]
Quod utilius Deus patefieri sinet, quod autem majoris momenti est, vulgo adhuc latet usque ad Eliæ Artistæ adventum, quando is venerit. "God will permit a discovery of the highest importance to be made, it must be hidden till the advent of the artist Elias." In the first chapter of the same work, he says:--Hoc item verum est nihil est absconditum quod non sit retegendum; ideo, post me veniet cujus magnale nundum vivit qui multa revelabit. "And it is true, there is nothing concealed which shall not be discovered; for which cause a marvellous being shall come after me, who as yet lives not, and who shall reveal many things."
These passages have been claimed as referring to the founder of the Rosicrucian order, and as prophecies of this character are usually the outcome of a general desire rather than of an individual inspiration, they are interesting evidence that then as now many thoughtful people were looking for another saviour of society. At the beginning of the seventeenth century "a great and general reformation," says Buhle,--a reformation far more radical and more directed to the moral improvement of mankind than that accomplished by Luther,--"was believed to be impending over the human race, as a necessary forerunner to the day of judgment." ... Was Christian Rosenkreutz a real person?
... I have come upon some new information that has changed my mind regarding the origins of Rosicrucianism. In some unpublished remarks of Mark Prophet and Elizabeth Clare Prophet, they both stated that Saint Germain was Christian Rosenkreutz. Mark said it first. ECP said it again in 1996. Now it is possible, since Saint Germain was Sir Francis Bacon, that they meant Bacon wrote the Rosicrucian texts. But they didn't clarify that, they said he was Rosenkreutz.
Manly P. Hall did not believe Christian Rosenkreutz was a real person. On the other hand, the more intuitive Rudolph Steiner did. In fact, to his credit, Steiner recognized that the Count of Saint Germain is the avatar for the Aquarian Age. Other than an inner confirmation, the only proof he offers is the decorations and artwork in Karlštejn Castle outside of Prague built by Charles IV (1347-1378). Many, he says were inspired by Rosicrucian principles. ...
A Jewel at the Heart of Quantum Physics-1/17 Quanta Magazine, By Natalie Walchover; Physicists have discovered a jewel-shaped geometric object that challenges the notion that space and time are fundamental constituents of nature.
Physicists have discovered a jewel-like geometric object that dramatically simplifies calculations of particle interactions and challenges the notion that space and time are fundamental components of reality. “This is completely new and very much simpler than anything that has been done before,” said Andrew Hodges, a mathematical physicist at Oxford University who has been following the work. The revelation that particle interactions, the most basic events in nature, may be consequences of geometry significantly advances a decades-long effort to reformulate quantum field theory, the body of laws describing elementary particles and their interactions. Interactions that were previously calculated with mathematical formulas thousands of terms long can now be described by computing the volume of the corresponding jewel-like “amplituhedron,” which yields an equivalent one-term expression.
“The degree of efficiency is mind-boggling,” said Jacob Bourjaily, a theoretical physicist at Harvard University and one of the researchers who developed the new idea. ...

Watch These Westerns Before Wokeness Cancels Them-1/7 Reverse Spins, by William House. I once read an article maybe 20 years ago about Russian Jews escaping the Bolsheviks in the early 1900's. Some of them settled in New Jersey. They got into the film making business where it was already thriving thanks to the likes of Thomas Edison and others. As a reaction to communism that they witnessed first hand, they focused on what they considered was good and noble in their new country. They chose to make Westerns. This medium could best express those ideals.
The way things are going, it is only a matter of time before Wokeness and the Cancel Culture targets Westerns.
