Briefly, the creed of the Thule Society inner circle is as follows:
Thule was a legendary island in the far north,
similar to Atlantis, supposedly the center of a lost,
high-level civilization.
But not all secrets of that civilization had been completely wiped out.
Those that remained were being guarded by ancient,
highly intelligent beings
(similar to the "Masters" of Theosophy or the White Brotherhood).
The truly initiated could establish contact with these beings
by means of magic-myst
cal rituals.
The "Masters" or "Ancients" allegedly would be able to endow
the initiated with supernatural strength and energy.
With the help of these energies the goal of the ini
tiated
was to create a race of Supermen of "Aryan"
stock who would exterminate all "inferior" races.
There can b
e no doubt that Eckart - who had been alerted to Hitler
by other Thulists -
trained Hitler in techniques of self confidence, self projection,
persuasive oratory, body language and discursive sophistry.
With these tools, in a short period of time he was able
to move the obscure workers party from the club and beer hall
atmosphere to a mass movement.
The emotion charged lay speaker became an expert orator,
capable of mesmerizing a vast audience.
One should not underestimate occultism's influence on Hitler.
His subsequent rejection of Free Masons and esoteric movements,
of Theosophy, of
Anthrosophy, does not necessarily mean otherwise.
Occult circles have long been known as covers for espionage
and influence peddling.
Hitler's spy apparatus under Canaris and Heydrich
w
ere well aware of these conduits,
particularly from the direction of Britain which had
within its MI5 intelligence agency a department
known as the Occult Bureau.
That these potential so
urces of trouble were
purged from Nazi life should not be taken to mean
that Hitler and the Nazi secret societies were not influenced
by mystical and occult writers such as Madame Blavatsky,
Houston Stewart Chamberlain,
Guido Von List, Lanz Von Liebenfels,
Rudolf Steiner, George Gurdjieff,
Karl Haushofer and Theodor Fritsch.
Although Hitler later denounced and ridiculed many of them,
he did dedicate his book Mein Kampf to his teacher Dietrich Eckart.
A frequent visitor to Landsberg Prison
where Hitler was writing Mein Kampf with the help of R
udolf Hess,
was General Karl Haushofer, a university professor
and director of the Munich Institute of Geopolitics.
Haushofer, Hitler, and Hess had long conversations together.
Hess also kept re
cords of these conversations.
Hitler's demands for German "Living Space" in the east
at the expense of the Slavic nations were based on
the geopolitical theories of the learned professor.
Haushofer was also inclined toward the
esoteric.
as military attache in Japan, he had studied Zen-Buddhism.
He had also gone through initiations at the hands of Tibetan Lamas.
He became Hitler's second "esoteric mentor",
replacing Dietrich Eckart.
In Berlin, Haushofer had founded the Luminous Lodge or the Vril Society.
The lodge's objective was to explore the origins of the Aryan race
and to perform exercises in concentration to awaken the forces of
"Vril".
Haushofer was a student of the Russian mag
ician and metaphysician
Gregor Ivanovich Gurdyev (George Gurdjieff).
Both Gurdjeiff and Haushofer maintained that they had contacts
with secret Tibetan Lodges that possessed the secret of the &q
uot;Superman".
The lodge included Hitler, Alfred Rosenberg,
Himmler, Goring, and Hitler's subsequent personal physician Dr. Morell.
It is also known that Aleister Crowley and Gurdjieff
sought contact with Hitler.
Hitler's unusual powers of suggestion become more understandable
if one keeps in mind
that he had access to the "secret"
psychological techniques of the esoteric lodges.
Haushofer taught him the techniques of Gurdjieff which,
in turn, were based on the teachings of the
Sufis and the Tibetan Lamas-
and familiarized him with the Zen teaching of the
Japanese Society of the Green Dragon.
