Wiki Is Rubbish

And just quickly, to demonstrate the logic and force of my argument, if you look at the Wikipedia entry for the 'History of the Knights Templar' you will see this totally illogical jump (in the paragraph titled 'Rise Of') from the moment Hugo de Payens forms the group in Champagne in France, to go along with pilgrims and to protect them - to some point quite a long time afterwards and which encompasses numerous battles along the way with Saladin, when de Payens has established some troops finally, inside the Temple of Solomon (so-called now, because there's really no such thing since after Tiberius Caesar), following which this group is referred to THEN as 'Templars.' But not before. They could have been called 'Knights Pilgrimers,' but not Knights Templars at the beginning, where they were nowhere near a temple and had no clue they would ever end up there at that specific one in particular in Jerusalem. It is not, for instance, the location of the birthplace of their deity - Jesus Christ.

Knights of the Temple of Solomon is not what they called themselves.

And so it's pretty foolish of these modern day people to appropriate what is in every respect, in the first place, a false name...

And then there's all this added nonsense about the Kabala or the so-called Jewish 'MerKaBah.' In actuality, the signs and symbols on the walls and ceilings of the Chapel of Montsaunes, are all to do with the Constantine labaron or labarum (in Latin). They have nothing whatsoever to do with any Jewish occult symbolism, which is entirely meaningless and powerless in an occult sense, and rather everything to do with certain astro-symbolic depictions about human spiritual composition, the Egyptian temple priests employed. 

You see, no one can really establish anything significant and substantial that creates strong group bonds and generates wealth and political and military power unless the ideas they are using genuinely have some actual and decisive, function. They cannot be just, albeit learned, speculation, whether philosophical or metaphysical - as the Jewish Kabala (and/or MerKaBah) symbology, if I may use that word, is.

And if the ideas are simply 'group or mass psychology' techniques - as so much of modern popular entertainment and culture is - then one need not subscribe to the presences of any 'secrets' or occult practices or powers.

There is no record that Hugh de Payens was some sort of spectacular orator or charismatic leader. What there is is a persisting suggestion that he was deeply involved - and his entire Order as well - in some sort of occult or magical practices and beliefs and ideas. With the result of amassing a marvelous fortune still supposed to be around to this day albeit in some covert form or in secret locations. 

Against this folklore, lies the fact of the Order's destruction and murder by Philip of Navarre. And so, it seems that their 'power' had its limitations.

The lesson here though, is one about keeping one's wealth extremely quiet, for it seems that nothing is more true in this world, than that there are always very dangerous and powerful as well as malicious forces, ever ready to take what is not theirs, and to do away with the real owners. As in, to murder them for profit and for gain, both of more power and of their victim's estates and even to steal their fame as if it belonged to the thief in the first place.
