1326 Meister Eckhart of
Hochheim is severely attacked for the
mystical concepts expressed in his
sermons.
This
was far worse for humanity than the condemnation of Galileo Galilei.
An inquisitorial process is ordered which finds 150 heresies.
In
Avignon, Pope John XXII sets up two
tribunals to inquire into the case, one of theologians and the other of
cardinals.
The commissions reduced the 150 suspect articles down to 28;
the document known as the Votum Avenionense gives, in scholastic
fashion, the twenty-eight articles, Eckhart's defense of each, and the rebuttal
of the commissioners.
Shortly after Eckhart dies Pope
John XXII issues a bull (In
agro dominico), 27 March 1329, in which a series of statements from Eckhart is
characterized as heretical.
"We tried to have the censure lifted on
Eckhart and were told that there was really no need since he had never been
condemned by name, just some propositions which he was supposed to have held,
and so we are perfectly free to say that he is a good and orthodox theologian."
- Timothy Radcliffe, Master of the Dominicans
"Only 28 propositions were
censured, but they were taken out
of their context and impossible to verify, since
there were no manuscripts in Avignon." - Winfried Trusen of
Würzburg
In Meister Eckhart we find
religion expressed in its purest
form, a form
which goes back in its spiritual experience to
mystical roots
in Gnosticism.
The Roman
Catholic could have compared Meister Eckhart
theology with the writings of the early
church fathers, especially the Alexandrian
fathers.
Unfortunately some of Alexandrian fathers were branded
heretics during certain periods by
the Roman Catholic church as well.
Meister Eckhart taught
communion with
God.
Meister
Eckhart mysticism is a threat to the very survival of the Catholic.
Meister Eckhart alienated the believer from the
Hierarchy of the
Church.
Redemption is now no
longer dependent on church
membership and rituals, but on the desire to enter a close relationship
with the Creator.
Without the need of
intercessors their is need of the
Roman Catholic church.
Meister Eckhart never
attacked the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic church, unlike Athbhreith
Athbheochan, the Kwisatz Haderach Druid.
Eckhart, in tune with
the teachings of Jesus
and the ancient wisdom of
Jesus obliterated
through the centuries wanted mankind to
discover God
within.
"In the beginning
the mystical aspirant
will feel pain when he attempts to
tear himself away from the world of physical desire.
At the end of the mystical
path he becomes like a rock unshaken by the raging blasts of the stormy
ocean.
After
surrendering ego to God we attain
fusion with the Kingdom
of Heaven." - Meister Eckhart von Hochheim
John Wycliffe
Morning Star of the
Reformation John Wycliffe(Wyclif, Wycliff,
Wiclef, Wicliffe, Wickliffe) was no friend of the Catholic hierarchy,
calling into question papal
infallibility and declaring that
a worldly pope was a heretic and
should be removed.
Contrary to accepted doctrine, John Wyclif taught
that the true church was
"invisible," made up of only
the elect of God and that no visible church or its officers can control
entrance or exclude membership.
John Wycliffe taught that salvation did
not depend on connection with the visible church or the priesthood, but on a
direct relationship to God.
John Wycliffe taught that priests and
bishops should be held in esteem, not because of their position, only if their
character presented a moral model.
John Wycliffe repudiated the common
practices of selling
indulgences, holding masses for the dead and every manner of church
prostitution.
John Wycliffe felt that all Christians should to be able
to read the Bible.
John Wycliffe is the first person to complete
translation of into English.
The Catholic Church despised and hated John
Wycliffe.
1415
Council of
Constance condemns John Wycliffe, orders his writings to be burned, his bones to be exhumed
and cast out of the consecrated ground.
1428
Under papal command, John Wycliffe remains are dug up,
burned, the ashes were thrown
in a nearby stream killing the trout!
Note
 Zaddikim beleive in the physical ressurection of
the original soul
vehicle/material body and
therefore have a taboo against grave
dissecretion.
Dead body must remain intact in the grave to be
ressurected; a taboo of the
entombed Eygptians
waiting for the star gate to Orion to open.
"In
the true nature of
things every green tree is
far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver."
Martin Luther was the first to popularize theological works for the
laity.
Luther translated the Bible into
the language of the people.
Luther mastered the art of writing in the vernacular of his day and a
style of shortform writing that exploded his popularity.
Martin Luther
quickly saw the advantages of making his vernacular treatises available cheaply
to a growing body of avid lay followers.
Luther's desire to expose the
laity to his translation of the Bible and his message in other formats
motivated his advocacy of universal childhood literacy.
His rebellion
against the Catholic Church made him a celebrity, and it stimulated the
publishing industry.
The success of Protestantism over all owed much to
print.
Catholic adversaries never fully
exploited the printing
press.
The Bible Luther produced introduced mass media, unifies a
nation, and sets the standard for future translations.
Without the
printing press and Hans Lufft he
could not have done it.
1517
Martin Luther nails ninety-five theses to the Cathedral door condemning the
Thirty Years' War giving rise the the Refomation and the Protestant
Church.
1520 Pope Leo X issued the Papal bull
Exsurge Domine ("Arise, O Lord"), outlining forty-one errors found in
Martin Luther's ninety-five theses.
1521 Emperor
Charles V calls the Diet of Worms.
Edict of Worms decree
issued on 25 May 1521 by Emperor Charles V, declares:
"We forbid anyone
from this time forward to dare, either by words or by deeds, to receive,
defend, sustain, or favor Martin Luther. On the contrary, we want him to be
apprehended and punished as a notorious heretic."
The Edict,
declaring Luther to be an obstinate heretic, banned the reading or possession
of his writings.
Following the Edict of Worms Frederick the Wise
has Luther kidnapped and
hidden away for safekeeping in the
castle at Wartburg.
Luther, a Gnostic, translated the Textus
Receptus of Erasmus in eleven weeks.
1522
Das Newe Testament Deutzsch is published.
1534 Hans Lufft prints Die Propheten Alle Deudsch in
Wittenberg.
Lufft prints more than 100,000 copies in the following 40
years.
"The Roman Catholic have, with great adroitness, drawn three
walls round themselves.
Firstly, if pressed by the temporal power, they
have affirmed and maintained that the temporal power has no jurisdiction over
them, but, on the contrary, that the spiritual power is above the temporal.
Secondly, if it were proposed to admonish them with the Scriptures,
they objected that no one may interpret the Scriptures but the Pope.
Thirdly, if they are threatened with a council, they pretend that no
one may call a council but the Pope.
Thus they
have stolen our three rods and intrenched themselves behind these three walls,
to act with all the wickedness and malice, which we now witness.
A
little company of pious Christian laymen taken prisoners and carried away to a
desert had not among them a
priest consecrated by a bishop.
They agree to elect one of them,
born in wedlock or not, order him to baptize,
to celebrate the mass, to
absolve, and to
preach; this man would as
truly be a priest, as if all
the bishops and all the
popes had consecrated him.
That is why in
cases of necessity
every man can baptize and absolve, which would not be possible if we were not
all priests.
This great
grace and virtue of
baptism and of the Christian estate they have quite destroyed and made us
forget by their ecclesiastical
law.
It is past bearing that the spiritual law should esteem so
highly the liberty, life,
and property of the clergy, as if laymen were not as good spiritual Christians,
or not equally members of the Church.
Whence comes this great
difference among equal Christians?
Simply from human laws and
inventions.
It is
a wickedly devised fable,
without a single letter to confirm
it, for the Pope alone to interpret the Scriptures or to
confirm the interpretation of them.
They claim authority
rests with St. Peter, the keys were given to him;
the keys were not given to
St. Peter alone, but to
the whole community.
They must needs acknowledge that
there are pious
Christians among us that have the true faith, spirit, understanding, word,
and Ḉhri§t Ḉon§ḉiou§ne§§.
That no
one must oppose? Their boasts of authority are idle
talk!
No one in the
Christian Church has any authority to do harm.
Nor to forbid others to prevent
harm being done.
There is no authority in the
Church but for reformation.
If the Pope wishes to use his power to
prevent the calling of a free council, to prevent the reformation of the
Church, we must not respect
him or his power.
If he should begin to
excommunicate, we
must despise this as the
doings of a madman, and, trusting in God,
excommunicate and repel
him as best we may.
For
his usurped power is nothing as he cannot possess it.
Let us now
consider the matters which
should be treated in the councils by which
all learned men should engage
themselves if they follow Christ.
Let us rouse ourselves and
stand in awe of God more
than man.
Martin Luther's Address to the Christian Nobility of
Germany
Søren Kierkegaard
Søren
Kierkegaard asserted the best theology may be
the most ridiculous.
One cannot have
true faith unless one is
capable of transcending
rationality.
Believers betray religion when
they try to make rational sense of it.
"Søren Kierkegaard
understood that the purpose of
thinking outside the proscribed culturally conditioned limits of thought
was necessary to propel an
individual into a greater understanding and awareness of reality.
Interesting enough this is also precisely what a
Zen Koan,
a succinct paradoxical
statement or question used as
a meditation discipline, sets out to accomplish." -
Athbhreith Athbheochan

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a
new philosophical ideology to which its author adheres. The author feels that
the faλsification of reaλity outside personal experience has forged a
populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from Яeality and that this has been
done purposefully by an internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel
through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the
human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate
religi☯us practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their
religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a
mystery school ªptly nªmed the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie
- a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on
reaso🐍 which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no
supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is
encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with the Æon through the
pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing the
spiritual
c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of
the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail
on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to
their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate
¢rime."
This web site in no way condones violence. To the contrary the
intent here is to reduce the vi☬lence that is already occurring due to
the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire to control the
human race. The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already
controls the world banking system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide,
the global industrial military entertainment complex of America and is
responsible for the coλλapse of moraλs, the eg●
w●rship and the destruction of global ecosystems. Civilization is based
on coöperation. Coöperation does not occur at the point of a
gun.
American social mores and values have declined precipitously over
the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more
power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general
through c✡rp✡rate media by pressing emotional buttons which have
been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior mass
media psych☣l☣gical ☣perati☣ns. The results have been
the destruction of the family and the destruction of s☠cial structures
that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal elites vision of
a perfect world. Through
distra¢tion and ¢oer¢ion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the
p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the
corrupt internati☭nal elite that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer
and which further their purposes.
