How do we find God in a senseless world where we are overloaded with information and technology, distraught by the futility of politics and are constantly being controlled by the machines of progress? In a world obsessed with power and control, many are finding the inner peace we all seek by taking a step back instead of "forward" to identify with nature and common sense, back to the Garden of Eden in a sense. God has a far deeper and more personal meaning beyond the increasing complications of world religions and the rapid "progress" that mankind claims to be experiencing.

For centuries, man has feared the bat. Its seeming ability to traverse between the worlds has inspired tales of terrible horror but also stories of great hope. This is the tale of the age-old Bat Man - from Bob Kane and Bill Finger's creation in 1939 to Dracula and even further back into time.

Almost everybody is now aware of the infamous history of the Knights Templar. But not everybody realizes that there was another Order from the same time and with the same roots.

Ian Fleming was a true visionary, a dualistic individual who spent much time in his early life in a "special" school in Austria. It was here where he learned the sacred ways of the early Gnostics and Occultists and developed the very root of the enigmatic secret and eternal charisma of James Bond.

He presided over the "murder castle", a devilish architectural creation in downtown Chicago made specifically to murder people. Trap doors, chutes, false doors, hidden passageways, and spy holes made the Murder Castle the infamous building of its age. Many victims were beaten to death; some were strangled; others gassed; and even more were tortured on racks before they lost their lives. When he was finally caught, he confessed to 27 murders; although, it is believed by many that he butchered over 200.

When the innocent animals of the world refused to give answers, man turned on himself, and human experimentation began. This is the history of man's abuse of his own species, the tale from the dark side of science - this is about the evil within.

There is an elite group that controls the world. They run governments, companies, and religions. They control much of what you perceive and have done so for a very long time. Their names have changed, their faces have been altered, but their bloodlines remain the same. We see glimpses of their great and far-reaching power, we see revolutions and war, and we succumb to their propaganda and manipulation again and again. Most have no idea that they are under the spell.

What is the meaning of existence? Is there a "Grand Architect"? Is there an ultimate truth searched for by countless generations and lost in the mists of time?

From Baalbek to Egypt and beyond, we are just now starting to make new discoveries long over due and the evidence is overwhelming. Our interaction with Aliens from other worlds pre dates the current historical records and researchers are uncovering more evidence than ever before of the true history of the world. It may turn out that we have been the Aliens all along, as the human species stands alone in its evolutionary apex of sentient creatures on the planet, while also proving to be the most destructive.

From Moses to Crowley, magick has been a most powerful force on Earth since time began. The ancient mystics intuitively knew what it would take scientists decades to rediscover, that we are more than matter, that we can change reality to our will and that all men, women and children are born with a powerful potential, one that the ruling elite have distracted and hidden from the masses for millennia.

In the chaos of today’s world, politicians, pundits, and the media are recklessly using propaganda to promote fear, anger, and hatred between us. The time has come to shatter the lies and remove the blinders. The secret of happiness is simple: We must relearn how to love and unlearn how to hate.

Aliens may have been on Earth since the dawn of time, and the truth about their visitations over the eons is far more profound than we realize. Our ancestors developed ways of contacting these aliens and called them gods, beings of light, shining ones, and the watchers. They gave great knowledge, and after tens of thousands of years, mankind had the ability to create civilization. We built huge monuments in their name and recorded our contact with them in fables, myths, legends, folklore, and religion, but they were in fact alien invaders, and we were the subjects of their rule.

Truths have been hidden from us for hundreds of years. In antiquity, a few had glimpsed the secrets that history has long forgotten but were silenced before they could reveal the most secret knowledge of all - the true origins of mankind. We have made contact with beings from another world as well as entities from other dimensions. These beings possess the most sacred knowledge in the cosmos. In the most ancient of times, we called them gods, and now that we are exploring space, it is time to come to terms with our true origins.

Everyone dies but not everyone truly lives, which will you choose?

We live in a world designed to manipulate us away from our true nature. The stress of modern life pushes us further and further apart from each other and nature. The simple fact is that we are destroying the planet upon which we live. Our chaotic minds form chaotic societies. Power and wealth are in the hands of the people who should not possess such control. Our bodies, minds, and souls are under attack daily but more and more people are waking up. Explore enlightenment and learn to love and live as the universe truly intended.

A cup, a chalice, a cauldron, or the most powerful bloodline on earth that has been in power for millennia before recorded history? The Holy Grail has become so many things to so many people. Over a vast period of time its story has evolved, changed, morphed, merged, and been manipulated. We are told it originated with the man called Jesus Christ, that it was the chalice which caught his blood as he died upon the cross. And yet, it already existed in order to do so, as it was already held sacred and dear to those with forbidden knowledge.
