37. Aryan Christ

The Coming Great One

Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, almost exactly nine months after the gruesome murders of by Jack the Ripper began, as if the killings were part of some dark ritual performed by the Golden Dawn to bring about the birth of some sort of “mind-controlled” messiah of chaos, and Aleister Crowley must have been his handler. Edward Bulwer-Lytton was the “Grand Patron” of the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia (SRIA), whose Supreme Magus, William Wynn Westcott, one of the three founders of the Golden Dawn. Westcott became an important member of Blavatsky’s Theosophical Society, later also Master of the Masonic research lodge Quatuor Coronati, and under his authority Theodor Reuss founded irregular masonic and Rosicrucian lodges in Germany in 1902. Crowley joined Reuss’s Ordo OTO in 1912. Eerily, in the Secret Doctrine, Blavatsky described the ominous portent of the so-called Vril force of the coming race mentioned by Bulwer-Lytton:

It is this Satanic Force that our generations were to be allowed to add to their stock of Anarchist's baby-toys.... It is this destructive agency, which, once in the hands of some modern Attila, a bloodthirsty antichrist, for instance, would in a few days reduce Europe to its primitive chaotic state, with no man left alive to tell the tale.[1]

                       

According to Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke, Thule Society founder Rudolf von Sebottendorf was initiated by the Termudi family of Jewish Freemasons in Salonika (Thessaloniki), the heartland of the Dönmeh sect, into a lodge believed to have been affiliated to the French Rite of Memphis.[2] The lodge he had been admitted to by the Termudi was, before the Young Turks seized power, the secret Bursa base of the CUP.[3] He eventually inherited their library of texts on alchemy, Kabbalah, Rosicrucianism, and Sufism. He was initially interested in Theosophy and Freemasonry, through which he was introduced to the Bektashi Sufis, whose belief in their origins in Ergenekon corresponded with the legend of Agartha and Shambhala. [4] In later years, Sebottendorff would explain that the magical practices of “Oriental freemasonry” preserved the secrets of the Rosicrucians and the alchemists, that modern Freemasonry had forgotten.[5]

Sebottendorf derived his racist ideas from the Pan-Turkism of the Dönmeh of Turkey, who venerated an ancient homeland called Ergenekon, which corresponded to the legend of Agartha, also venerated by the Thules. The Thule Society identified the Germanic people as the Aryan race, the descendants from Thule, and sought its transformation into a super-race by harnessing the power of Vril, mentioned in Bulwer-Lytton’s Coming Race. Inspired by Greco-Roman geographers who located the mythical land of “Ultima Thule” in the furthest north, Nazi mystics identified it as the capital of ancient Hyperborea, a lost ancient landmass supposedly near Greenland or Iceland, and the land of the super-race who inhabited the Hollow Earth. The Ancient Greeks wrote not only of the sunken island of Atlantis, but also of Hyperborea, a northern land whose people migrated south before it was destroyed by ice.

Like Guido von List, the father of Ariosophy, Sebottendorf believed that blonde, blue-eyed giants with supernatural abilities lived in far north long ago. Through miscegenation with inferior races, they lost their “third eye,” which allowed them to communicate with the “etheric continuum.”[6] After the destruction of Ultima Thule, its refugees withdrew to Asgard, the home of the gods in Norse mythology, corresponding with Agartha. These Hyperborean Masters communicated telepathically with Ariosophic prophets such as Guido von List to help them prepare for “The Coming Great One,” a warrior-priest who would lead the Aryans to victory.[7] Judging by the enthusiasm with which the members of the Thule Society received Hitler and were impressed by his manic rhetorical abilities, they must have perceived him not only to be the embodiment of this prophesied Aryan savior, but to be possessed, or in direct telepathic contact, or “channeling,” these Hyperborean gods or deceptive entities.

Tavistock Institute

According to Greg Hallett, author of Hitler Was a British Agent, Hitler was in England in 1912-1913, a fact supported by his sister-in-law’s book, The Memoirs of Bridget Hitler, and he proposes that Hitler spent February to November 1912 undergoing mind-control training at the British Military Psych-Ops War School at Tavistock in Devon and in Ireland. Hitler’s sister-in-law describes him as completely wasted upon his arrival at her Liverpool home luggage-less. “I had an idea he was ill, his color was so bad and his eyes looked so peculiar,” she wrote. “He was always reading, not books, little pamphlets printed in German. I don’t know what was in them nor exactly where they came from.”[8] Hallett proposed that this reading material was manuals from Tavistock.

What gave rise to the Tavistock program was the British Army Psychological Warfare Bureau’s use of propaganda during World War I, which was intended to convince the British that war was necessary and that Germany was an enemy to be detested. A key element in that plan was the provocation of Germany’s sinking of the Lusitania. Profiting from this experience, the British Army Bureau of Psychological Warfare set up the Tavistock Institute for Human Relations on the orders of the British monarchy and placed British newspaper magnate, Alfred Harmsworth (1865 – 1922), Viscount Northcliffe, owner of the Daily Mail, the Daily Mirror and The Times, and an admirer of Cecil Rhodes, who was appointed director for propaganda under David Lloyd George.[9] It was under Harmsworth’s ownership that The Times first published The Protocols as genuine in 1920, before publishing a retraction in 1921, when Philip Graves, the Istanbul correspondent of The Times, based on a clue provided to him by Allen Dulles, future head of the CIA, exposed The Protocols as a forgery, largely plagiarized from Maurice Joly The Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu.

The activities of the Round Table leading up to and during World War I, were propagandized by Harmsworth his newspapers. By 1914, Harmsworth controlled 40 per cent of the morning newspaper circulation in Britain, 45 per cent of the evening and 15 per cent of the Sunday circulation.[10] According to Harry J. Greenwall, the author of Northcliffe: Napoleon of Fleet Street (1957), Harmsworth “with the Daily Mail unleashed a tremendous force of potential mass thought-control” as it became the “trumpet… of British Imperialism.”[11] Harmsworth’s editorship of the Daily Mail in the years just preceding the World War I, when the newspaper displayed “a virulent anti-German sentiment,” caused The Star to declare, “Next to the Kaiser, Lord Northcliffe has done more than any living man to bring about the war.”[12] Arthur Balfour, the leader of the party in the House of Commons, sent a private letter to Harmsworth. “Though it is impossible for me, for obvious reasons, to appear among the list of those who publish congratulatory comments in the columns of the Daily Mail perhaps you will allow me privately to express my appreciation of your new undertaking.”[13]

The Tavistock Clinic, later renamed the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations, a British not-for-profit organization formed at Oxford University in 1920 by Dr. Hugh Crichton-Miller, a psychiatrist who developed psychological treatments for shell-shocked soldiers. Tavistock was reportedly formed on the orders Round Table’s Royal Institute for International Affairs (RIIA), and relies on grants from the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations, the British Home Office and other anonymous supporters.[14] Its members referred to themselves as an “invisible college,” in reference to the in reference to the seventeenth-century precursor to the Royal Society.[15] The staff at Tavistock consisted of Arnold Toynbee, a future director of studies at the RIIA, Round Tabler Walter Lippmann and Edward Bernays.[16]

Tavistock was concerned with the psychology of group behavior and organizational behavior, based on the psychoanalysis of Sigmund Freud.[17] As shown in “The Consolation of Theosophy II,” an article by Frederick C. Crews for The New York Review of Books, several scholars have established that Freud was among the key figures who developed therapy through the retrieval of forgotten trauma, through a debt to Mesmer.[18] People have been employing hypnotic-type states for thousands of years, and in many cultures and religions. Hypnosis is what has been referred to in the past as casting a spell, or the trance or altered states of consciousness of mystics, mediums and shamans. Research psychiatrist E. Fuller Torrey in The Mind Game aligns hypnotic techniques with witchcraft.”[19]

According to William Kroger and William Fezler in Hypnosis and Behavior Modification, “For centuries, Zen, Buddhist, Tibetan, and Yogic methods have used a system of meditation and an altered state of consciousness similar to hypnosis.”[20] When Ernest Hilgard, an American psychologist and professor at Stanford University—who became famous in the 1950s for his research on hypnosis—was asked what was the difference between hypnosis as used by a trained practitioner and that used by shamans or witch doctors, he responded, “Trained practitioners know a great deal about contemporary psychotherapy and hypnosis is merely adjuvant. In this they differ from those whose practices are essentially magical.”[21]

Western scientists first became involved in hypnosis around 1770, through the influence of occultist Franz Anton Mesmer. The theories and practices of mesmerism greatly influenced the up-and-coming field of psychiatry with such early practitioners as Jean Martin Charcot, Pierre Janet and Freud. Adam Crabtree’s From Mesmer to Freud: Magnetic Sleep and the Roots of Psychological Healing traces Mesmer’s use of hypnotism to uncover the influence of unconscious mental activity as the source of repressed thoughts or impulses in the theories of Freud. Jonathan Miller traced the steps by which psychologists gradually stripped Mesmerism of its occult associations, reducing it to mere hypnosis and thus paving the way for recognition of non-conscious mental functioning.[22]

Hitler’s Vienna

Adolf Hitler, an inhabitant of Vienna from 1907 to 1913, saw Karl Lueger, the mayor of Vienna, who was also a supporter of von Schönerer and the German National Party, as an inspiration for his own views on Jews. Liebenfels claimed that Hitler had visited him at the office his Ostara journal in Rodaun on the outskirts of Vienna during 1909.[23] Hitler was in Vienna in 1913, where in the same year there also lived Leon Trotsky, Yugoslavia’s eventual leader Marshal Tito, Freud and Joseph Stalin. Freud frequented the Cafe Landtmann, while Trotsky and Hitler often visited Cafe Central. Hitler read newspapers and pamphlets that published the thoughts of philosophers and theoreticians such as Charles Darwin, Friedrich Nietzsche, Gustave Le Bon and Arthur Schopenhauer.[24] Hitler was also influenced by Eugen Karl Dühring, Paul Anton de Lagarde, Julius Langbehn, Adolf Stoecker, Arthur Comte de Gobineau, and Wagner’s son-in-law, Houston Stewart Chamberlain.[25]

Nevertheless, as is popularly known, there had been widespread rumors that Hitler was himself Jewish. Such a claim was put forward by a prominent New York City attorney named Jerrold Morgulas, in The Torquemada Principal, while still other theories suggested Hitler was the illegitimate grandchild of a Rothschild. In fact, Hitler’s Jewish and African ancestry has been confirmed through recent genetic studies.[26] Like Napoleon, Hitler belonged to the Y-DNA haplogroup E1b1b, which is rare in Germany and even Western Europe. According to Ronny Decorte, genetics expert at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven who sampled Hitler’s current living relatives, “the results of this study are surprising” and “Hitler would not have been happy.”[27] E1b1b is presently found in various forms in the Horn of Africa, North Africa, parts of Eastern, Western, and Southern Africa, West Asia, and Europe, especially the Mediterranean Spain and the Balkans. E1b1b is quite common amongst populations with an Afro-Asiatic speaking history, where a significant proportion of Jewish male lineages are E1b1b1, including that of Albert Einstein. E1b1b1, which accounts for approximately 18% to 20% of Ashkenazi and up to 30% of Sephardi Y-chromosomes, appears to be one of the major founding lineages of the Jewish population.[28]

In The Jew of Linz, Kimberley Cornish alleges that the Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein had a profound effect on Hitler when they were both pupils in the early 1900s at the Realschule in Linz, Austria, a state school of about 300 students.[29] While Hitler was just six days older than Wittgenstein, they were two grades apart at the school, as Hitler was required to repeat a year while Wittgenstein had been advanced one. Cornish’s theory that Hitler knew the young Wittgenstein, and learned to hate him, and that Wittgenstein was the one Jewish boy from his school days at the Realschule referred to in Mein Kampf:

Likewise at school I found no occasion which could have led me to change this inherited picture. At the Realschule, to be sure, I did meet one Jewish boy who was treated by all of us with caution, but only because various experiences had led us to doubt his discretion and we did not particularly trust him; but neither I nor the others had any thoughts on the matter.[30]

Hitler had left his hometown of Linz in Austria in 1907, to live and study fine art in Vienna, financed by orphan’s benefits and support from his mother. He applied for admission to the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna but was rejected twice, since he had not completed secondary school.[31] In 1909, Hitler ran out of money and was forced to live a bohemian lifestyle in homeless shelters and a men’s dormitory. According to Samuel Igra, author of Germany’s National Vice, an affidavit in the possession of the diplomatic representatives of several governments in Vienna “declared that Hitler had been a male prostitute in Vienna… from 1907 to 1912, and that he practiced the same calling in Munich from 1912 to 1914.”[32]

Also in Mein Kampf, Hitler described how, in his youth, he wanted to become a professional artist, but his dreams were crushed because he failed the entrance exam of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. In 1909, Hitler ran out of money and was forced to live a bohemian life in homeless shelters and a men’s dormitory. He earned money as a casual laborer and by painting and selling his paintings of Vienna’s sights. Samuel Morgenstern (1875 – 1943), a Jewish businessman who sold picture frames, sold many of Hitler’s paintings. Hitler maintained a friendly relationship with Morgenstern and his wife, at one point visiting the two once a week as a guest in their home. The majority of the buyers were Jewish from Morgenstern’s regular clientele from around his workshop on Liechtensteinstrasse near downtown Vienna, quite close to Freud’s practice. One of Morgenstern's main customers was the lawyer Dr. Josef Feingold.[33] In a statement made in the 1930s, Hitler said that Morgenstern had been his “savior” during the Vienna period.[34] Reinhold Hanisch (1884 – 1937), a petty criminal and sometime business partner of the young Hitler, stressed that Hitler associated almost exclusively with Jews, and his best friend in the men’s dormitory was the Jewish copper cleaner Josef Neumann. Another Jewish friend was a one-eyed locksmith’s assistant, Simon Robinsohn.[35] From 1909 to 1913, Hitler supplied his paintings on a regular basis Jakob Altenberg (1875 – 1944), another Jewish businessman. Although Hitler claimed in Mein Kampf to have discovered his hatred of the Jews during his time in Vienna, Altenberg is reported to have said that he never heard Hitler utter an anti-Semitic remark.[36]

The Voice

During his time in Vienna, Hitler pursued a growing passion for architecture and music, attending ten performances of Lohengrin, his favorite Wagner opera, when he was only twelve.[37] “I was captivated at once,” Hitler wrote in the opening pages of Mein Kampf. “My youthful enthusiasm for the master of Bayreuth knew no bounds.”[38] According to August Kubizek, a childhood friend, Hitler was so influenced by seeing Wagner’s Rienzi in 1906, based on a novel by Edward Bulwer-Lytton of the same name, that it triggered his political career. The hero is a man of the people, a visionary who sings: “and if you choose me as your protector of the people’s rights, look at your ancestors and call me your Volk tribune!” The masses shout back, “Rienzi, Heil! Heil, Volk tribune!”[39] Kubizek, describes the effect that Wagner’s music had on Hitler, as a young man:

Never before and never again have I heard Hitler speak as he did in that hour....It was as if another being spoke out of his body, and moved him as much as it did me. It wasn’t at all the case of a speaker being carried away by his own words. On the contrary; I rather felt as though he himself listened with astonishment and emotion to what burst forth from him with elementary force… It was a state of complete ecstasy and rapture… He was talking of a mandate which, one day, he would receive from the people, to lead them out of servitude to the heights of freedom… It was a state of complete ecstasy and rapture, in which he transferred the character of Rienzi, without even mentioning him as a model or example, with visionary power to the plane of his own ambitions...a special mission which one day would be entrusted to him.[40]

When Kubizek reminded Hitler, in 1939 at Bayreuth, of his enthusiastic response to the opera, Hitler replied, “At that hour it all began!”[41] A fellow solider during World War I later reported that Hitler “said that we would hear much about him. We should just wait until his time has arrived.”[42] In August 1914, at the outbreak of World War I, Hitler was living in Munich and voluntarily enlisted in the Bavarian Army, despite the fact that he was as an Austrian citizen and should have been returned to Austria.[43] It was on October 15, 1918, when he was temporarily blinded in a mustard gas attack and was hospitalized in Pasewalk, when Hitler again had an important experience with the “Voice.”[44] Hitler reported hearing “the Voice” when he narrowly escaped death from a French artillery shell on November 15, 1914:

I was eating my dinner in a trench with several comrades. Suddenly, a voice seemed to be saying to me: “get up and go over there.” It was so clear and insistent that I obeyed automatically as if it has been a military order. I rose at once to my feet and walked twenty meters along the trench carrying my dinner can with me. Then I sat down to go on eating, my mind once more at rest. Hardly had I done so when a flash and defining report came from the part of the trench I had just left. A stray shell had burst over the group in which I had been sitting, and every member of it was killed.[45]

Hitler also admitted that he experienced a “vision” and heard a voice from “another world,” during which he was told that he would need to restore his sight so that he could lead Germany back to glory.[46] The “Voice” insisted that Hitler had been chosen by Providence and had been given a Divine mission. Hitler was destined to establish a new social order, a new Reich which would be established under his leadership. In a footnote of his biography of Hitler, John Toland purported that Hitler may have been hypnotized.[47] According to historian Dr. Thomas Weber of the University of Aberdeen, who has explored the significance of Hitler’s time in Pasewalk, “Hitler left the First World War an awkward loner who had never commanded a single other soldier, but very quickly became a charismatic leader who took over his country.”[48]

According to a US Navy Intelligence report which was declassified in 1973, and written by Austrian nerve specialist Karl Kroner, who was working when Hitler was treated in Pasewalk, the consulting psychiatrist Edmund Forster concluded that Hitler’s condition was hysterical blindness.[49] Whatever treatment Hitler received under Forster’s care will never be known due to the fact that in 1933 the Gestapo seized all psychiatric records related to his treatment and destroyed them. Forster also committed suicide in the same year. According to historian Dr. Thomas Weber of the University of Aberdeen, who has explored the significance of Hitler’s time in Pasewalk, “Hitler left the First World War an awkward loner who had never commanded a single other soldier, but very quickly became a charismatic leader who took over his country.”[50]

Hitler in Pasewalk by Bernhard Horstmann and David Lewis’ The Man who Invented Hitler both explain the metamorphosis in terms of the hypnosis. Toland refers to a curious parallel of Hitler’s experience, found in a book completed in 1939 titled The Eyewitness, written by a Jewish doctor Ernst Weiss, who was acquainted with Forster. Weiss fled Germany in 1933 and committed suicide in Paris when the Nazis arrived. The Eyewitness tells of a German corporal named “A.H.” blinded during a mustard gas attack and treated by a psychiatrist at Pasewalk. The Corporal is described as a patient with an Austrian accent, who has received the Iron Cross, and who loves the music of Wagner but hates Jews. The psychiatrist hypnotizes A.H. and suggests that he must recover his sight in order to lead the German people. “Perhaps you yourself have the rare power, which occurs only occasionally in a thousand years, to work a miracle,” the doctor tells A.H. “Jesus did it. Mohammed. The saints? You are young; it would be too bad for you to stay blind. You know that Germany needs people who have energy and blind self-confidence.”[51]

Putzi

The man who supposedly “discovered” Hitler and advanced his career in Germany, was Ernst Hanfstaengl (1887 – 1975), a German businessman with key links to the Round Table conspirators and the highest echelons of power in the US, right up to the office of the American president at the time.[52] Hanfstaengl, nicknamed “Putzi,” was born in Munich, the son of a German art publisher and an American mother. His mother was Katharine Wilhelmina Heine, daughter of William Heine, nephew-in-law of American Civil War Union Army general John Sedgwick. Duke Ernst II of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (1818 – 1893), the older brother of Queen Victoria’s husband Albert, was Hanfstaengl’s godfather. Hanfstaengl spent most of his early years in Germany but later moved to the United States and attended Harvard University and through his membership in the Harvard Club he counted among his friends Theodore Roosevelt Jr., Delano Roosevelt, then Senator of New York, T.S. Eliot, John Reed and Walter Lippmann, who was also associated with the Tavistock Institute, where he had been appointed to handle the manipulation of American public opinion in preparation for the entry of the United States into World War I.[53]

It was also at Harvard that Hanfstaengl made friends with Roosevelt. A private message was sent from Roosevelt to Hanfstaengl in Berlin, to the effect that Roosevelt hoped that Hanfstaengl would do his best to prevent any rashness and hot-headedness on the part of Hitler and that, “If things start getting awkward please get in touch with our ambassador at once.”[54] As recounted by Andrew Nagorski in Hitlerland: American Eyewitnesses to the Nazi Rise to Power, after his return to Germany in 1922, Warren Robbins, a Harvard classmate serving at the U.S. Embassy in Berlin, called Hanfstaengl in Munich to ask him to assist Truman Smith, a young military attaché working for American ambassador Alanson B. Houghton. Smith was sent to Munich to “try to make personal contact with Hitler himself and form an estimate of his character, personality, abilities, and weaknesses.” In his report filed to Washington, Smith characterized Hitler as a “a marvelous demagogue… I have rarely listened to such a logical and fanatical man.”[55] When they finally met, Smith gave Hanfstaengl his press pass to a Nazi rally that evening. Hanfstaengl’s first impression of Hitler was underwhelming, but once Hitler took the podium, the atmosphere became “electric.”[56]
