THE MOVEMENT
A number of people have expressed an interest in joining the Illuminati, but, by and large, they have been turned down even though they are bright, capable people. The Illuminati’s recruitment policy is, and has been for over a thousand years, connected with the core religious secrets of the society. For obvious reasons, these cannot be divulged. Illumination, the religion of the Illuminati, is a “mystery” religion akin to those of ancient Greece, and the inner secrets are revealed only to those who have attained the highest mystery degrees.
Those who are recruited by the Illuminati are those who have been identified as having the requisite readiness for the final revelations. “Readiness” is not connected to someone's intelligence, dedication, moral worth, status, wealth, background, or anything of that kind, but only whether that person is already exhibiting a strong, intuitive grasp of “gnosis”
The Illuminati Order
There are only 6,000 members of the Illuminati: fewer than one in a million in a world population of some six and a half billion people. In a city like London, there are only eight members. Many people, when they imagine a secret society, picture something along the lines of Freemasonry, with Masonic lodges in every major town and regular meetings involving a large number of people. The Illuminati offer nothing of that kind. Meetings are infrequent.
Special locations are selected for small gatherings and these change every year (they are always connected with locations across the world that have played critical and fateful parts in the history of the Illuminati). Many members have to expend a great effort in terms of travel, expense and their time to get to the chosen meeting place.
The occasions are highly dramatic and spine tingling, as they must be when great religious mysteries are revealed. The Illuminati Order is not something you "join" for the sake of joining, not something that exists to give you status or a secret identity to make you feel good about yourself, or to allow you to solve the "puzzle of life" in the manner of an amateur mathematician or a detective. Joining the Illuminati is a transformative experience. Neither money, status, celebrity, fame, prestige, nor any other of the "golden" attributes of our shallow, materialistic and consumerist society can secure a person admission to the Illuminati.
Equally, many good and honorable people who have many of the right qualities we look for are also unable to join since they are simply not ready in terms of the criteria we apply. This means that the Illuminati miss out on many talented people. The Illuminati have always got round this problem in this past by creating new secret societies and orders that are based on many, but not all, of the principles of the Illuminati.
These other organizations have less restrictive admission criteria, recruit many more members and evolve in their own way. Freemasonry was the creation of the Illuminati, but it must be emphasized that the Illuminati did not run Freemasonry. A few of the original Grand Masters were members of the Illuminati but because the number of Freemasons rapidly outstripped the total membership of the Illuminati, Freemasonry soon changed in character. "Undesirables" infiltrated it and the Illuminati lost control, with the disastrous consequences that are now apparent. Contemporary Freemasonry is an obscenity, a grotesque insult to the ideals on which it was founded. Whereas the original Freemasons were anti-establishment, determined to work against false religions, arrogant nobles and tyrannical kings, modern Masons are the central pillars of the oppressive regimes they once opposed.
Freemasonry has been turned on its head. The Illuminati have thought long and hard about why Freemasonry failed so spectacularly and became the primary weapon of the Old World Order to maintain its power, wealth and privileges indefinitely. Can something along the lines of the original vision of Freemasonry be reborn, without falling victim to the same dismal fate?
The Illuminati have decided that the time has come for a new attempt, an addition to the historical "Illuminati Network" that has been described elsewhere on this site, one that has learned from all the problems and flaws of the past, one that, most importantly of all, relies on you. This is your chance to be part of the great chain of history, part of the age-old resistance to the Old World Order, part of the great endeavor to build the utopia humanity has always craved. (The Old World Order is not vast. Like the Illuminati, it has only about 6,000 members - that's all that stands between the world and freedom.)
It will be based on the concept of "crowdsourcing": using an army of volunteers, interacting and cooperating with one another, to provide the answer to a problem. (Wikipedia is a classic example.) Crowdsourcing can unleash the power of the people. Men and women from all walks of life and all disciplines can collaborate to solve seemingly intractable problems.
More often than not, they pour their hearts, souls and time into solving the problems. They show remarkable creativity and innovation. Wondrous, unexpected results can emerge…the most powerful alchemy imaginable. Many people on YouTube spend days and weeks perfecting humorous little projects to entertain their friends.
Instead of "having a laugh", why don't they put the same energy and passion into changing the world and overthrowing the Power Elite? Above all else, the Illuminati wish to release the limitless potential of the people in a huge outpouring of breathtaking creativity. And from that process, humanity's collective divine spark will be liberated. The Movement consists of four interrelated elements covering religion, politics, activism and psychology
A NEW RELIGION
Heading 3
Imagine a clean slate for religion. No bearded prophets, no holy texts, no brainwashing going back hundreds and thousands of years, no commandments, no saints, no angels, no rituals, no sacraments, no places of worship, no priests and preachers, no traditional practices and observances, no holy days, no popes, no rules regarding diet, clothes or appearance, no prohibitions, no sermons. How would you go about creating a religion from scratch? It should be a religion that does the following
a) Wakes up humanity and brings about a spiritual renaissance.
b) Frees humanity from the materialistic, zombie consumer culture of shopping malls.
c) Appeals to theists, deists, agnostics, agnostics and even atheists.
d) Promotes mystery, secrecy and wonder, and provides a transformative experience for its initiates
It's up to you to build it. Create, on the drawing board, via crowdsourcing, the perfect religion, with no historical baggage, and then bring it alive. Can you do it? This new religion will be called Mystical Fidelity (rather than Illumination). The aim is for it to be so inspiring that it will consign all other religions to oblivion, and will allow agnostics and atheists to participate.
For all of its triumphs, science, the bedrock of atheism, is full of holes and contradictions (it's amazing how many critical flaws in science are glossed over as if they didn't exist), and, above all, science can't answer the most basic question of all: what is the meaning of life? This isn't a scientific question, it's a philosophical one, and atheists are as interested in it as much as everyone else.
So, can you collaborate with others to produce a religion that will inspire the world and save us all from the horrors of the current dominant religions? It should be a religion that costs nothing, requires no priests, rabbis, or imams, no churches, mosques, synagogues or temples, no baptisms, no "holy" days; a religion that has no need of "saints" interceding on our behalf, nor of "sacraments" that bestow "grace" upon us, nor ancient texts that we are supposed to take literally, nor fierce prophets ordering us what to do.
No one and no organization stands between you and God. God is within you. The qualities attributed to Jesus Christ are those possessed by each person if they did but know it. As with Christ, God and man are united in each and every one of us; two natures existing within each person. Christians are willing to believe this of Christ, but not of ordinary men and women. Gnostic's accept it as true of everyone.
This radically opposite view makes all the difference in the world. Christianity or Gnosticism? - God incarnate in one person (Christ), or the divine spark incarnate in everyone? Which offers the most glorious and hopeful vision for humanity? There is no possible doubt.
Had Christianity evolved slightly differently (and it had many opportunities to become unrecognizable from the way it turned out), it could have been Gnostic Christianity, with Christ as an Every man…a shining example to all Gnostic's, a model for everyone to emulate
the perfect blend of humanness and the divine spark. (Some Gnostic's regarded Christ as a divine messenger sent by the True God to enlighten us. He had a phantom body, they said, rather than a real one because no being from the realm of light would ever fully enter into the Satanic material world.
Other Gnostic's regarded him as indeed taking on a physical reality so that he could act as the perfect example to everyone of how to escape Satan's material hell. His life, they said, was about an ordinary man - a carpenter - going on an incredible journey to release his divine spark and become God. He was so successful that billions now worship him as though he were a unique being rather than an exemplar whom anyone can emulate.)
The Illuminati, knowing the true identity of Jesus Christ, revile him, but the "image" of Jesus Christ rather than the reality could certainly have been the foundation of great things if it had evolved along Gnostic lines. The anchors - the agents of the Demiurge, the ultimate puppet masters - ensured that this did not happen
Nothing is more important than the idea that God (or a "higher self" to placate atheists) resides within you, because this ensures that no one is alienated from God (he is no longer separate, alien and distant from us) and it gives every person's life infinite value.
It ensures that everyone has high self-esteem and selfconfidence. Kings of old claimed to be divinely appointed and thus to have the absolute right to dominate everyone else. Mystical Fidelity should teach that we are all divinely appointed and no one has the right to dominate anyone
Illuminati should promote humanity's highest aspirations, the feeling of wellbeing and contentment, the feeling that everyone is precious and to be treated as such. Mystical Fidelity should abolish churches and formal buildings of worship. Religion should return to nature, to the outdoors: to groves and forests, rivers and lakes, mountains and fields, caves and grottoes. It should contain mystery and magic to kindle the human imagination. There should be no power hierarchy.
Ecstasy means standing outside of oneself. Enthusiasm means being possessed or inspired by a god. Inspiration means breathing in the divine essence. These words are all related to the quest for the divine spark and attaining your higher self.Mystical Fidelity should be full of ecstatic experiences, enthusiasm and inspiration.
A long-running joke in The Simpsons is the incredible tedium of the Reverend Love joy's services. The Simpsons, like most Christians, regard religion as a chore that needs to be endured every Sunday. There's nothing uplifting about it, nothing transcendent. Religion is supposed to be the core of the mystery of life, and yet for most people it's something that sends them to sleep.
Modern religion is either a bore or leads to the psychopathic fanaticism of suicide bombers. The majority of people these days are numb, "comfortably" numb. Isn't it time to come out of your numbness, to feel the exhilaration that true religion brings? The world is crying out for a new religion.
Can you create symbols and initiation degrees for Mystical Fidelity? Can you create a structure for an underground religion? Can you create secret and mystical ceremonies? Can you create a religion that allows people to feel like gods? Perhaps the ancient and historical red Phrygia cap should be worn?
This is the famous liberty cap of the American and French Revolutions. Perhaps you can find inspiration from the following texts:.

Objective: for Mystical Fidelity to replace all established religions
A NEW POLITICS
The Meritocracy Party is the political wing of the Illuminati. For further information see the sister site of this one:
Read More
(The person responsible for most of the articles on the meritocracy site was recruited by the Illuminati on the strength of several items he posted on the internet which showed a remarkable intuitive grasp of many of the Illuminati's core teachings.)
This site contains a critique of many aspects of the Old World Order's social order. Meritocracy is the system that will replace the Old World Order's rancid democracy - government of the people by the Power Elite for the Power Elite. Can you improve the meritocratic model? Can you devise a political constitution, a political vision that will astound the world?
The Old World Order's democracy is accompanied by free market capitalism as its economic implementation - designed to ensure that a small number of people control the vast majority of the world's wealth and power.
Meritocracy will be based on an entirely new economic system where no one can become disproportionately wealthy. It will rely on the new field of behavioral economics i.e. economics based on human psychology rather than on abstract equations divorced from human behaviour. Many ideas are suggested on the meritocracy website. Can you provide new, fresh thinking?
The Venus Project described in Zeitgeist:
Addendum is a utopian, transformational vision of society that seeks to leave behind profit-driven capitalist economics. Can you produce something to rival it?
Meritocracy, like Illuminati , is all about treating every person as infinitely precious. Everything should be done to ensure that each and every person is treated with respect and is afforded the best possible chance in life. Meritocracy should seek to identify what every individual is good at and passionate about, and actively steer them in the direction where their merits shine the brightest.
At the moment, most of us are left to rot. We leave school, college and university with little sense of what we are best at and what makes us tick. Why? Because the Power Elites couldn't care less about us and what we do or don't like and what talents we do or don't have. All they care about is that we should comply with their system and pose no threat to them.
The basic family unit should be extended to a greater "community" family - where local communities are responsible for ensuring that every child, no matter if it's from a privileged or dysfunctional family, is given full community support and is fully nurtured and given the opportunity to maximize its potential.
Anyone who supports the current family model is in effect saying that the elite dynastic families, those that comprise the Power Elite, those taking maximum advantage of privilege, should be allowed to dictate the shape and leaders of the future. This can never be right. Every generation should be as free as possible from the influence of previous generations. Every generation, as far as possible, should start afresh.
It is always wrong for financial advantages to be passed on by the rich to their offspring, and simultaneously denied to the offspring of ordinary families. Life should be a level playing field. Everyone should start from the same starting line.
No one should be permitted to rig the game of life in their favor. The Old World Order's entire game plan is to ensure that they manipulate the system to allow them and their descendants to rule in perpetuity. Objective: for Meritocracy to replace Democracy.

A New Psychology
The great unspoken truth of the world is that it is entirely based on psychology. The current dominant psychological paradigm of the world is the one devised by the Old World Order to legitimize and facilitate their rule. It is a master-slave psychology where everyone is fitted into a power and status hierarchy, and those at the top dominate everyone below. It is a pyramid structure.
An entirely new psychology is needed: a Round Table where no one dominates anyone else. The world should be managed according to a psychological paradigm where selfesteem, happiness, aspiration, and personal fulfillment are given primacy, rather than the current economic one where money, capitalism, materialism and consumerism constitute the dominant ideology of our age. Capitalist economics is a master-slave ideology - those with most capital dominate everyone else.
The masters are subjects and the slaves are objects. The Round Table psychology paradigm is about treating everyone as an individual worthy of the highest respect, and where there are no masters and no slaves. The most meritorious rise to the top in society, but they are not driven by the need to dominate others and they do not seek massive, disproportionate rewards.
Can you flesh out the Round Table psychological paradigm that, instead of favouring the Old World Order, is designed to ensure that each and every person is given the maximum opportunity to find personal fulfilment? The new paradigm should be informed by the well-known psychological models for categorising different types of people: Myers-Briggs personality types, Enneagrams (deriving from the Ancient Egyptians and Pythagoras), the Four Humours of Hippocrates, Sheldon's Somatypes, and the Belbin team roles. More information can be found here:
(If you have read most of the pages on this website you will almost certainly fall into the Myers-Briggs categories of "INTJ" or "INTP". In a subsequent article, we will show how everything can be interpreted according to Myers-Briggs
personality types: history, nations, philosophy, advertising, political parties, art, religion...) This wing of the Movement will be referred to as the "Psy" Faction and its purpose is to bring about the psychological transformation of the world.
The Psy Faction should be all about carrying out the programmed of Mystical Fidelity and Meritocracy: treating us all as priceless individuals and finding exactly what motivates us and what we're best at. The Demiurge is the master of psychology of the lowest common denominator but we can attain that of a higher truth: the highest common factor. Objective: to replace the Old World Order's master-slave pyramid psychology with Meritocracy's Round Table psychology.
