Are his books legit information or was he a charlatan? Freemasons seem to be very divided on him, with some really recommending his work while others heavily scorn his works as fiction or not accurate, most of his important works were written long before he joined freemasonry.Is Blavatsky a better author by comparison? Are there any other books out there like the Secret Teachings of All Ages that teach the mysteries?
>>41234816He was a fraud but he might have believed his own hypeBlavatsky was even a bigger fraud she was exposed in Egypt as a charlatan even before she started the theosophical society When real question is was Blavatsky an intelligence agent for a nation
>>41234816"hey guys you need to understand occult symbolism, because this occultists fucking love symbolism and put it everywhere"yeah no shit
>>41234854Blavatsky was also an honorary Freemason like Hall, her works had heavy Buddhist themes so maybe she had ties with some Asian or Tibetan Secret Society like the Green Dragon Society?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Dragon_(order)>>41234874Symbols don't have just one meaning, one symbol can mean five different things.Question is, did Manly P. Hall give us correct interpretations os smokscreens like picrel implies.
>>41234816Hall is a Fucking legend, cuck freemanson wants to discredit him by saying he's a fraud cause he has leaked too many secrets. Do the opposite of what the nigger freemansons say
>>41234816>>41235198The key giveaway is that his speeches be ame more mundane and uninteresting when he joined the Freemasons in the 50s, anything before that was fire. They probably dangled a fast track to the 33rd degree in front of him as a way to keep him quiet.
>>41234952freemasonry is really just a bunch of blokes nothin scary
>>41235198How do we define 'Fraud'? If (everything) he ever discussed was the (God's-honest) truth then how can we call him a fraud?We obviously cant nor should we.Regardless of how many frauds seek to stick their fat noses out to say otherwise in this very thread...
>>41234816Blavatsky, Steiner, MPHThey’re the greats. Edgar Cayce was better than all 3 but had to go under hypnosis to do his best work
>>41234816If you read his books you’ll see he just lays it out there. Not in a fear mongering way either. Freemasons should be happy someone wrote about their symbolism without focusing on the way many of them have perverted these ancient teachings. HPB and Steiner were good but offer more opinions than Manly didAll 3 are really good but Manly is the most scholarly and least biased. Cayce was different because he’s channeling without much human filtering when discussing Atlantis, root races, lemuria, reincarnation, etc. the other 3 are more focused on stuff they learned from books and secret societies
>>41235315The label "fraud" is used to discredit and silence.Manly Hall leaked too many masonic secrets and knowledge to the public, secrets that were supposed to be only given to the initiated masons and they had him killed for that, many such cases.
>>41235198>>41235230interesting take.>>41235418Freemasons say he wasn't scholarly.>>41235433His death was pretty suspicious, also checked>33
>>41235836>Suspicious He was pretty overly murderedhttps://youtu.be/qefbUVy8AmQ
>>41235264why the secrecy then?
>>41236617It started as a means for persecuted wisdom religions (most notably Templar Gnosticism) to survive through souls pacts of secrecy, unfortunately in an age of more liberal acceptance of alternative religions that infrastructure has become a protective shell for criminal conspiracy. Most boomers joined for business networking purposes, not genuine spirituality, so most lodges are little more larping country clubs, but in more rotten areas like DC, Paris, London, etc they become a cover for criminal conspiracy among different sectors and industries with a pledge held on the soul if anyone divulges details. Unfortunately any religion or society that persists will eventually be targeted by cluster b schemers and become an inversion of its former self.
