Sins of the Father

scroogeTHOUSANDS of honest employees in the Enron scandal revealed in 2001, paid dearly for the misdeeds at the top of their corporate leadership.

Maybe most of the non-managerial staff were “innocent” — possibly, others knew what was going on and remained silent.

Either way the lesson is clear: No one is safe working for a company that has lost its moral compass. But, whether or not this is fair, is not the issue.

A Puzzle

Such crimes trigger broader questions: “who’s Karma is it anyway?” And: ” how can such behaviors be prevented in the future?”

If Exodus (34:6-7) was right, then “the children and the grandchildren to the third and fourth generations” will be revisiting the same transgression.

Can events suffered by one generation really affect future generationsis there no Karmic relief? Are we to be forever haunted by the specter of an Ebenezer Scrooge?christmascarol2

Marley’s Ghost

“Men’s courses will foreshadow certain ends,
to which, if persevered in, they must lead;
but if the courses be departed from,
the ends will change.”

- Charles Dickens: A Christmas Carol

Invoking Karma as a haunting that plagues us unforgivably through life, makes good theater. It is a also an apt metaphor for the wake-up call of conscience.

But, if Karma is to be defined as:

“…that unseen and unknown law which adjusts wisely, intelligently and equitably each effect to its cause”

christmascarol3

— how does it explain the obvious injustice done to thousands who lost their jobs and billions in pensions because of the actions of a few selfish executives?

Karmic Energy

In The Key to Theosophy, H. P. Blavatsky uses the phrase “unmerited suffering” — a puzzle to many students because it seems opposed to Karma’s fundamental axiom that

“…the particular conditions of life in which each person finds himself, are nothing more than the retributive Karma which the individual generated in a previous life.”

This is explained further by W. Q. Judge in Echoes from the Orient that “when a being dies, he emits, as it were, a mass of force or energy, which goes to make up the new personality when he shall be reincarnated.”

A Shady Nook

Yet, every reincarnating person is compensated for his perceived ‘unmerited suffering’ during the period of between-life sleep known by the Tibetan word “Devachan” (place of the Gods), says Theosophy.

“We say that man suffers so much unmerited misery during his life, through the fault of others with whom he is associated, or because of his environment,” Blavatsky explains,

“that he is surely entitled to perfect rest and quiet, if not bliss, before taking up again the burden of life.”

Perrault - Jeune-Mere-Et-Enfant-Endormie

“Electrical Waves of Life”

And she goes on to describe his compensation between lives on Earth — which we would compare to a long, sound sleep between hard days at work:

“As a man exhausted by one state of the life fluid seeks another — as, for example, when exhausted by the hot air he refreshes himself with cool water — so sleep is the shady nook in the sunlit valley of life.”

“The life current must be broken,” she says, “by changing the waking for the sleeping state.”

“Ask a good clairvoyant to describe the aura of a person just refreshed by sleep… [He]will be seen bathed in rhythmical vibrations of life currents — golden, blue, and rosy — these are the electrical waves of Life.”

As a Man Thinks

A man, caught up only in circumstances of his present life, may feel justified in resenting injustices. But personal suffering in any one life is almost invariably due to lack of information, we believe, stored in a universal field of mind.

Most of us are still unaware of this spiritual information, and lack insight into the entangled workings of karmic law — an inability to know ‘how things really are’ in the larger field of which we are a part.

Unfortunately, we tend to receive an abundance of unsolicited guidance from others — who doggedly reinforce their own, and our narrow, personal agendas.

Mind Field

Frontier thinker, biologist Bruce Lipton, PhD explains why the information in our belief system, our thoughts and behaviors, play such a critical role in every aspect of our life:

Thoughts Rule

Inner self-knowing is what all the enlightened Teachers of humanity have acquired, through long lifetimes of struggle. Adepts are made, not born. All spiritually mature beings live and teach the same eternal ethic: non-separateness.

There is no Law that says we must endure continual suffering. Mostly these are placebo-nocebo effects, that we and others have churned into habits of thinking.

Thoughts rule the world, as the Buddha experienced, and taught in the Dhammapada: “All that we are is the result of what we have thought” he said— “all that we are is founded on our thoughts and formed of our thoughts.” Adding:

“If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain pursues him, as the wheel of the wagon follows the hoof of the ox that draws it.”

gautama-buddha

But, The Buddha didn’t share our notions of suffering. Instead, he taught a Karma-centered, optimistic, spiritual philosophy, beautifully depicted in The Light of Asia:

___________________

If ye lay bound upon the wheel of change,
And no way were of breaking from the chain,
The Heart of boundless Being is a curse,
The Soul of Things fell Pain.

Ye are not bound! the Soul of Things is sweet,
The Heart of Being is celestial rest;
Stronger than woe is will: that which was Good
Doth pass to Better — Best.

I, Buddh, who wept with all my brothers’ tears,
Whose heart was broken by a whole world’s woe,
Laugh and am glad, for there is Liberty!
Ho! ye who suffer! know

Ye suffer from yourselves. None else compels,
None other holds you that ye live and die,
And whirl upon the wheel, and hug and kiss
Its spokes of agony.

___________________

Eric Pearl, Lynn McTaggart, and Bruce Lipton explain how such a philosophy works in powerful ways to impact our health and well-being — and how what we think can even alter the structure of our DNA:

Power of Thought Fields

But Karma as described in Theosophy is a Universal Law of Harmony, and in it this broadest sense, therefore, cannot be reduced in scope to one person or one life only. Its decrees must have the greater whole of Nature and the planetary well-being in view. Blavatsky wrote:

“We must not lose sight of the fact that every atom is subject to the general law governing the whole body to which it belongs, and here we come upon the wider track of the Karmic law.”

disaster

But how? What mechanisms are involved in the “wider track of the Karmic law,” or “distributive karma,” as taught in Theosophy — and how are these implemented? As Blavatsky pointedly wrote:

“The aggregate of individual Karma becomes that of the nation to which those individuals belong, and further, that the sum total of National Karma is that of the World.”

famine

Larger fields of karma such as famines, and natural disasters are not “peculiar to the individual or even to the Nation, they are more or less universal,” Blavatsky writes,

“…and it is upon this broad line of Human interdependence that the law of Karma finds its legitimate and equable issue.”

A New Science of Inheritance

Completed in 2003, the Human Genome Project (HGP) was a 13-year project coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Institutes of Health.

“I am a scientist and a believer, and I find no conflict between those world views.”

- Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D.

(Dr. Collins is the director of the Human Genome Project. His most recent book is “The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief.”)

genomeproject

The project catalyzed the multibillion-dollar U.S. biotechnology industry and fostered the development of new medical applications.

Researcher’s were poised to use the knowledge about gene variations among individuals, to diagnose, treat and someday prevent the thousands of disorders that affect us.

But “life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans,” John Lennon said. And, as we will see, a wiser Mother Nature had long ago made those other plans.

Lennon_Ono_Trudeau_1969

“Reality leaves a lot to the imagination”

- John Lennon

Because all organisms are related through similarities in DNA sequences, insights gained from nonhuman genomes would naturally lead to new knowledge about human biology.

Theosophy agrees, as H. P. Blavatsky explains:

“… every living creature and thing on earth, including man, evolved from one common primal form.”

dna

Theosophy Already Knew

It follows, then, that the identical genes that were in our ancestor’s bodies, Blavatsky says (The Life Atoms) —

“…are transmitted through their descendants for generation after generation, so that we are literally ‘flesh of the flesh’ of the primeval creature who has developed into man in the later period.”

genome2

The Karmic law of Human Interdependence, a spiritual law, and was not on any geneticist’s radar.

This game-changer has only recently been rediscovered by the emerging science of “epigenetics.”

Geneticist Spencer Wells and a team of scientists are attempting to answer that question by collecting DNA samples from people all over the world.

Karma

It knows not wrath nor pardon; utter-true
Its measures mete, its faultless balance weighs;
Times are as nought, tomorrow it will judge,
Or after many days.

- Sir Edwin Arnold, Light of Asia

One Planet

And, since it is only the selfish and ignorant thoughts and actions of individual human beings that caused so much suffering and imbalance in the world, it seems only just and logical that any readjustment should be effected by and through those same creators.

That the many ’suffer for the sins of the few’ seems to be a given — since we are all One Being mutually interacting on One Planet together.

smoke.stack.pollution

The polluted earth, air and water affects everyone indiscriminately. And everyone therefore owns, to greater or lesser degree, the burden of responsibility for the conditions which affect the whole.

In the end, ignorance of the laws of life is no excuse. Sooner or later we all have to wake up to the fact, and begin working in harmony to resolve the problems we have together created.

coastal_pollution

If we do not, Nature will step in and restore equilibrium in her own way. And Her way often results disease, pain and suffering, and is no respecter of persons.

The Ghost in Your Genes – Part 2

The occult science of this process was explained by Mme. Blavatsky, in her Key to Theosophy:

“Let me briefly remind you what these principles are: universal Unity and Causation — Human Solidarity the Law of Karma Re-incarnation. These are the four links of the golden chain which should bind humanity into one family, one universal Brotherhood.”

Circle_of_Brotherhood

This may be insufficient a philosophy to satisfy some. The “Four Links,” which should bind humanity into “one family,” are not yet the commonly accepted worldview.

So long as there is separateness and selfishness, Theosophy says, there will be suffering. And this is why we need to practice true Compassion, “the law of laws.”

The Ghost in Your Genes – Part 3

“Occultism teaches that the life-atoms [in the DNA?] of our (Prana) life-principle are never entirely lost when a man dies,” Blavatsky wrote:

“The atoms [in the genes?] impregnated with the life-principle (an independent, eternal, conscious factor) are partially transmitted from father to son by heredity, and partially are drawn once more together and become the animating principle of the new body in every new incarnation…”

dna_repair

There is a “Spiritual one life, a universal Vital principle independent of our matter, and manifesting as atomic energy only on our plane of consciousness,” Blavatsky concludes:

“It is that which, individualized in the human cycle, is transmitted from father to son.”

Karma Science

H. P. Blavatsky
The Secret Doctrine 2:305

THIS LAW, whether conscious or unconscious, predestines nothing and no one. It exists from and in eternity truly, for it is eternity itself — and as such, since no act can be coequal with eternity, it cannot be said to act, for it is action itself.

It is not the wave which drowns the man, but the personal action of the wretch who goes deliberately and places himself under the impersonal action of the laws that govern the ocean’s motion. Karma creates nothing, nor does it design.

surfer

It is man who plants and creates causes, and Karmic law adjusts the effects, which adjustment is not an act but universal harmony, tending ever to resume its original position, like a bough, which, bent down too forcibly, rebounds with corresponding vigour.

If it happen to dislocate the arm that tried to bend it out of its natural position, shall we say it is the bough which broke our arm or that our own folly has brought us to grief?

“Come ye out and be ye separate”

Excerpt from Karma

by William Q. Judge

“The old Aztec and other ancient American peoples died out because their own karma — the result of their own life as nations in the far past — fell upon and destroyed them.

“And the individual in race or nation is warned by this great doctrine that if he falls into indifference of thought and act, thus molding himself into the general average karma of his race or nation, that national and race karma will at last carry him off in the general destiny.

miley-cyrus-make-peace-not-war

“This is why teachers of old cried, ‘Come ye out and be ye separate.’

“With reincarnation, the doctrine of karma explains the misery and suffering of the world, and no room is left to accuse Nature of injustice.”

Orbs of Influence

angel-singing

Euterpe

DEJA VU is an awakened familiar reminiscence of place, or in the case of meeting a stranger, an uncanny feeling of recognition.

We have an unmistakable sense of prior knowing that person or place — though the encounter is seemingly, in this life,  for “the first time.”

Invisible entities called “elementals” or “elementaries” in Theosophy, can be thought of as “orbs of influence,” in the sense that such hidden entities attach to and manifest hidden patterns of intention.

They are attracted to, mirror and preserve fields of information — reflecting the  influences, beneficent or maleficent, of persons, places and things. The Greeks called them Muses.

Similarly, “sacred space” and “spirit of place” are ideas that, for man, refer to a lingering spiritual resonance of certain locations.

What Makes Anything ‘Sacred’?

We label certain places “sacred” perhaps because of the presence of congeries of invisible entities, and the vibrations they transmit. There seems to be a corresponding subtle part of us that can “sense” these energies.

In music this can be either like The Sixties’ hit, The Beach Boys’ “Good Vibrations,” or the damaging energies of hard rock that have been shown to destroy living plants.

Plants Thrive on Good Vibes

Altered States

“When Russian scientists measured the brainwaves of people inside Gothic cathedrals and Egyptian pyramids,” explains metaphysical researcher Freddy Silva:

“they noticed how the surrounding environment created a force which stimulated brainwaves 4000% above normal waking state.”

“Similar experiments at Delphi and Stonehenge, Silva reports:

“showed how the frequency of these sacred environments is approximately 7.8 Hz: the frequency of the human brain in a state of receptivity, the kind of state enjoyed by psychics and healers when they are at work.”

Sleep of Siloam

The following passage from H.P. Blavatsky is noteworthy because is shows the power of spiritual influences that still must certainly linger in the Egyptian Pyramids.

“The initiated adept, who had successfully passed through all the trials,” Blavatsky says, “was attached, not nailed, but simply tied on a couch in the form of a tau … [and] plunged in a deep sleep.”

siloam

“He was allowed to remain in this state for three days and three nights, during which time his Spiritual Ego was said to confabulate with the ‘gods,’ descend into Hades, Amenti, or Patala (according to the country), and do works of charity to the invisible beings, whether souls of men or Elemental Spirits.

The Adepts body remained the entire time, Blavatsky says, “in a temple crypt or subterranean cave.”

luxor_1

“In Egypt it was placed in the Sarcophagus in the King’s Chamber of the Pyramid of Cheops, and carried during the night of the approaching third day to the entrance of a gallery,” she explains:

“where at a certain hour the beams of the rising Sun struck full on the face of the entranced candidate, who awoke to be initiated by Osiris, and Thoth the God of Wisdom.”

Another World Within and Around

Elemental entities exude a normally invisible, living “presence” around us, are made of a sublimated material, yet are still tangible physical “reality.”

orbs7

Such forms are alive, and preserve images and ideas of the past — and in certain cases, perhaps, speak to us about our own past.

“The whole Kosmos,” H. P. Blavatsky explains in The Secret Doctrine,

“… is guided, controlled, and animated by almost endless series of Hierarchies of sentient Beings–”

Each of these has “a mission to perform,” she says, and “are the agents of Karmic and Cosmic Laws” — and “they vary infinitely in their respective degrees of consciousness and intelligence.”

Interacting with Other Realms

Researcher Freddy Silva shows how Gothic cathedrals are secretly encoded with information by Knights Templars; that Stone circles emit magnetic fields and ultrasonics; and mysterious crop circles microscopically alter plants, water and soil.

Temples of Initiation

According to the theosophic tradition, the Great Pyramid was originally used as a temple of initiation.

H.P. Blavatsky says that it “was built ages before [Khufu] and he only desecrated it by giving it another use. In his day no more initiations took place in it, and he consecrated it to Tet, or Seth-Typhon [the opposite pole to Thoth].”

awaken1

“She links the Pyramid with the Egyptian Temple of Dendera, ” writes David Pratt, “some 270 miles south of Giza, and states that since the two Dendera zodiacs show, among other things, the passage of three precessional cycles, or about 78,000 years, the possibility that the Pyramid is of a similar age is worth serious consideration (The Secret Doctrine 2:432).”

How are initiations into higher states of consciousness possible?

orbs6

“The special organ of consciousness is of course the brain,” wrote H. P. Blavatsky, “and is located in the aura of the pineal gland in the living man.”

“During the process of mind or thought manifesting to consciousness, constant vibrations of light take place. If one could see clairvoyantly in the brain of a living man one could almost count (see with the eye) the seven shades of the successive scales of light, from the dullest to the brightest.”

Temples are generally located above blind springs. These underground courses of water interact with a local magnetic field to spirals of energy which rise out of the ground.

Their locations are often marked by menhirs, dolmens and other large standing stones.

sacred_sites1

“A spinning motion of energy generates an EM charge in water and creates a local magnetic field,” Freddy Silva writes.

“This can influence the human body to an extraordinary degree: by influencing the iron contained in blood, and the movement of blood itself through the veins, since blood also requires spin to move around the body.

“Furthermore, anyone interacting with a weak magnetic field starts to feel changes in their state of awareness, since the spin motion of energy also stimulates and vibrates the pineal gland, not to mention the millions of particles of magnetite suspended in the liquid surrounding the brain.”

Giant’s Grave

orbs14

“It is just as possible that future should have in store for us the discovery of the giant skeleton of an Atlantean, 30ft. high, as the fossil of a pithecoid ‘missing link’: only the former is more probable.” - H. P. Blavatsky

Sacred Sites & Magnetic Fields

“So, as you prepare to enter a sacred site your body is being conditioned to accept more penetrating forms of energy,” Silva writes:

“And since the subtle energy properties of a temple suggest it is also a living organism, the site reads a pilgrim’s electrical field like a credit card. If there is sympathetic resonance between the person entering the site and the site itself, then an immediate bond takes place between both organisms.”

orbs13

“Since the human body is a positively and negatively-charged electrical circuit, the alteration of a nearby electro-magnetic field will have a corresponding affect on its state of awareness.

“When building sacred sites, the choice of stone was considered for its amount of quartz: a highly programmable and piezo-electric compound. Any amount of pressure on quartz-bearing rock produces a subtle EM field.

humanfields

“And that is where the temple-building technology reveals itself: human DNA is sensitive to such alterations of local EM fields. Entering a temple rich in subtle energies allows for an exchange of information between the stones and the human edifice.”

“It is well documented that many standing stones in Britain can and do give off high electrical charges, especially when they have not been grounded for many years.

Dowsers are especially prone to these effects since they tend to come into the contact with standing stones in remote places, out of curiosity.

three_fingers

“It is not unusual to hear of people touching these splendid stones, in the process grounding them, and the resulting static charge throwing a person back some twelve feet!”

“Scientism” is not Science

A Modern Mesmer

HandsMESMEROMANIA is how the Paris press reported it. Parisians including the wife of King Louis XVI, Queen Marie Antoinette, were in love with a man by the name of Franz Friedrich Anton Mesmer (1734-1815).

Mesmer was rich, in part because he married a rich widow but also because he became a successful Viennese physician.

He lived on a well-appointed estate and hosted the then young twelve-year-old musical prodigy Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Mozart was introduced to Benjamin Franklin’s invention, the “Armonica,” by Mesmer, (who used it to ‘mesmerize’ his patients). The young Mozart composed a musical piece for Mesmer’s “Glass Armonica,” and later wrote a solo armonica piece, and a larger quintet for armonica, flute, oboe, viola and cello.

The Glass Armonica

Mesmer was the darling of Parisian Elite Society in the 1780’s, a confidant of the super rich and super powerful.

mind-mesmer

All over Paris, people were throwing themselves under trees Mesmer had ‘mesmerized.’ They would flail, convulse, scream and claim healing. Mesmer said he had a healing power in his hands, which he called “Animal Magnetism.”

Mysticism vs Scientism

This era was a period of questioning. Later historians would call it the age of enlightenment (18th century). This began a period where scientific method, as we know it today, was begun.

Science was not yet a specialized profession, and the term Scientist was not coined until 1833. Mysticism was gradually replaced with materialistic reductionism — or what Charles Tart terms “scientism.”

Today, hands-on-healing and Mesmerism, now called “bioenergy” healing, is enjoying a renaissance of interest and investigation.

Domančić Bioenergy

The method of Domančić Bioenergy was developed over 30 years ago.

Curiously, Zdenko Domančić bears an uncanny likeness to Mesmer.

Its practitioners say:

“It is unique in its simplicity and effectiveness, scientifically validated and practiced all over the world. It restores health of adults and children, when other means fail.”

The energetic body field or astral field, “has been known for ages to those who see with the inner eye,” W. Q. Judge wrote, and “will one day be discovered and admitted by science.” Mesmer was only a rediscoverer, H. P. Blavatsky declared.

Further, Judge says that mesmeric phenomena and be produced by “any healthy man or woman … if they will only try.”

Energy healing is not to be confused with activities of the “Higher Self” he says, adding:

“The grosser the operator the better, for thus there is more of the mesmeric force.”

domancic-velikaaail

This healing art, William Q. Judge wrote in his article Mesmerism, “long antedates the days of Anton Mesmer,” and was known by many different names — though its methods and results were recognizably similar, he says.

“… sometimes the person operated on was seen to follow the hand of the operator, as if drawn like iron filings to a magnet. These are all used today by various operators.”

Distance Healing

(See post: Mind Reading Mind)

“In 1639, one hundred years before Mesmer,” Judge explains, “a book was published in Europe upon the use of mesmerism in the cure of wounds, and bore the title, The Sympathetical Powder of Edricius Mohynus of Eburo.”

“These cures, it was said, could be effected at a distance from the wound by reason of the virtue or directive faculty between that and the wound.”

(Excerpt from The Living Matrix)


A Subtle Form of Matter

“THE great question mooted,” Judge continues, “is whether there is or there is not any actual fluid thrown off by the mesmerizer. Many deny it, and nearly all hypnotizers refuse to admit it. H. P. Blavatsky declares there is such a fluid, and those who can see into the plane to which it belongs assert its existence as a subtle form of matter.

remote-energy-healing

“This fluid is composed in part of the astral substance around everyone, and in part of the physical atoms in a finely divided state. By some this astral substance is called aura. But that word is indefinite, as there are many sorts of aura and many degrees of its expression.

“This aura, then, is thrown off by the mesmerizer upon his subject,” Judge says, “and is received by the latter in a department of his inner constitution — never described by any Western experimenters, because they know nothing of it.”

Modern Mesmer: Zdenko Domančić

Since 1993 Zdenko Domančić has been teaching his method at the Bioenergy Clinic in Slovenia – the largest center of this type in Europe. Thousands of people come there from all over the world for group therapy.

Over the years, Domančić has healed over million people, having received spectacular results in every classified disease.

class

The success of the method (validated by scientists and medical commissions) has been reported in cases of diabetes, Parkinson’s, gangrene, Alzheimer and many other. The President of Slovenia awarded Domančić for his work.

Domančić takes part in research on HIV/AIDS at the Stanford University and in research on on cancer at the Institute of Oncology in Lubljana. Among his students and patients are among others: medical doctors, health workers, veterinarians and scientists.

The Olympic Sports Representation of Slovenia is treated at his clinic. The therapy can be practiced individually, in group sessions and by distance. It is very effective also in treatment of animals.

Theosophy of Healing

by William Q. Judge

W. Q. Judge

“It is easy enough for all proper purposes to mesmerize a subject by following what is already publicly known,” Mr. Judge says, and that

“By means of certain nerve points located near the skin the whole system of nerves may be altered in an instant, even by a slight breath from the mouth at a distance of eight feet from the subject.”

distancehealing1

“The skin includes the mucous, all membranes in the body, the arterial coats, and so on. The flesh takes in the nerves, the animal cells so-called, and the muscles. The bones stand alone.

“The blood has its cells, the corpuscles, and the fluid they float in.

“The organs, such as the liver, the spleen, the lungs, include skin, blood, and mucous. Each of these divisions and all of their subdivisions [of the Astral Body] have their own peculiar impressions and recollections, and all, together with the coördinator the brain, make up the man as he is on the visible plane.”

Healer: Stipe Domancic, son of Zdenko

Healer: Stipe Domancic, son of Zdenko

“These all have to do with the phenomena of mesmerism,” Judge writes, “although there are those who may think it not possible that mucous membrane or skin can give us any knowledge.

“But it is nevertheless the fact, for the sensations of every part of the body each affect cognition, and [especially] the experiences of the skin cells.”

H . P. Blavatsky on Mesmer

H. P. Blavatsky

H. P. Blavatsky

The Theosophical Glossary, by H. P. Blavatsky, gives this explanation of Mesmer:

“The famous physician who rediscovered and applied practically that magnetic fluid in man which was called animal magnetism and since then Mesmerism. He was born in Schwaben, in 1734 and died in 1815.

“He was an initiated member of the Brotherhoods of the Fratres Lucis and of Lukshoor (or Luxor), or the Egyptian Branch of’ the latter.

“It was the Council of “Luxor” which selected him — according to the orders of the “Great Brotherhood”— to act in the 18th century as their usual pioneer —  sent in the last quarter of every century to enlighten a small portion of the Western nations in occult lore.

“It was St. Germain who supervised the development of events in this case — and later Cagliostro was commissioned to help, but having made a series of mistakes, more or less fatal, he was recalled.

“Of these three men who were at first regarded as quacks, Mesmer is already vindicated. The justification of the two others will follow in the next century.

Mesmer founded the “Order of Universal Harmony” in 1783, in which presumably only animal magnetism was taught, but which in reality expounded the tenets of Hippocrates, the methods of the ancient Asclepieia, the Temples of Healing, and many other occult sciences.
