Redemption Through Sin: Global Conspiracy - Robert Sepehr

This collection of texts centers on the historical and philosophical underpinnings of several esoteric and controversial movements, tracing lines of influence from 17th-century Sabbateanism

This collection of texts centers on the historical and philosophical underpinnings of several esoteric and controversial movements, tracing lines of influence from 17th-century Sabbateanism, led by self-proclaimed messiah Sabbatai Zevi, through to the 18th-century Frankism of Jacob Frank, and ultimately connecting these ideas to the establishment of the Illuminati by Adam Weishaupt and his alleged alliance with the Rothschild banking family. The sources examine concepts such as "redemption through sin," the Kabbalah's interpretations of reality, and the establishment of secret societies with purported goals of global political and economic control, suggesting these movements may have played a role in significant historical events like World War I and the creation of the state of Israel. The texts also touch upon the use of occult symbolism within these groups and the accusation of a hidden agenda to manipulate society and information.

Briefing Document: Review of Selected Works by Robert Sepehr and Anna Van Oort

The provided texts, primarily from Robert Sepehr's "1666 Redemption Through Sin" and "Species with Amnesia," along with mentions of collaboration with Anna Van Oort, explore a range of controversial historical, religious, and anthropological theories. A central theme across the works is the existence of hidden histories, secret societies, and manipulative forces influencing global events. "1666 Redemption Through Sin" focuses on the historical and philosophical lineage of Sabbatai Zevi and Jacob Frank, arguing their "redemption through sin" doctrine and their followers, the Sabbateans and Frankists, formed a powerful, unseen network that infiltrated various movements including Freemasonry, the Illuminati, and even contributing to major historical events like the World Wars. "Species with Amnesia" delves into alternative histories of human origins, focusing on advanced ancient civilizations like Atlantis, the existence of distinct human populations (e.g., Cro-Magnons, Rh-negative blood types), and challenging mainstream historical and anthropological narratives. Both works exhibit a tendency to connect seemingly disparate historical events and groups under a larger framework of hidden influence and forgotten origins.

Key Themes and Important Ideas/Facts:

1. The Legacy of Sabbatai Zevi and "Redemption Through Sin":

  • Sabbatai Zevi as a Self-Proclaimed Messiah: The texts introduce Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666 and gained a large following. His philosophy was controversial, proclaiming "that redemption was available through acts of sin."

  • Violation of Religious Law: Sabbateans are described as abolishing traditional religious observances, encouraging and practicing "Sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies." Zevi himself violated taboos, such as eating forbidden fats and celebrating fast days as feast days. This is encapsulated in a prayer attributed to Zevi: "Baruch atah Adonai, Elohainu Melech ha-olam; matir issurim: Blessed art thou, Lord our God, King of the Universe, who makes the forbidden things permissible."

  • Forced Conversion and Crypto-Identity: After Zevi's conversion to Islam, many followers also converted while secretly maintaining their Jewish and mystical practices. The Donmeh of Anatolia are cited as a famous example of this "religious converts" group.

  • Reinterpretation of Kabbalah and Religious Law: The advent of Zevi is presented as causing a revaluation of Lurianic Kabbalah. Nathan of Gaza, a key proponent, is quoted stating that existing religious law was essentially obsolete: "In the present age it is no longer in order to read the tikkunim... nor to meditate according to their kavvanot... for the times have changed." He further clarifies: "My meaning is that the kavvanot... are no longer appropriate to our own time... Therefore, let everyone beware of using them, and likewise let none of the kavvanot or homilies or writings of Rabbi Isaac Luria be read henceforward, for they are abstruse and no living man has understood them except Rabbi Hayyim Vital..."

  • Justification of Sinful Acts: The violation of the Torah was justified by Sabbateans through metaphors like the grain of wheat rotting before sprouting, implying that "the deeds of the believers must become truly rotten before they could germinate the redemption." They also cited the Talmudic dictum (out of context): "transgression committed for its own sake is greater than a commandment not committed for its own sake."

2. Jacob Frank and the Expansion of Frankism:

  • Successor to Zevi: Jacob Frank is presented as Sabbatai Zevi's true successor, extending the "paradoxical teachings of Zevi that the coming of the messianic age had transformed sexual prohibitions of the bible into permissions and even obligations."

  • "Redemption Through Sin" and Debauchery: Frankism is described as centering on the leadership of Jacob Frank, who expanded on the "redemption through sin" philosophy. Rabow's book is cited: "According to Frank, engaging in sexual orgies became the means to purify the soul from its sins. Debauchery became therapy."

  • Outward Conversion to Christianity: Like the Donmeh's conversion to Islam, Frank convinced his followers to "outwardly become Christians" for survival.

  • Rejection of Moral Law and Desire for Destruction: Frank asserted that the biblical God was evil and that "the only way to a new society was through the total destruction of the present civilization." He advocated for "child sacrifice, rape, incest and the drinking of blood" as necessary rituals.

  • Descent to the Abyss: Frank's philosophy is illustrated by the metaphor of Jacob's Ladder shaped like a V, suggesting the need to "descend and be cast down to the bottom rung, for only then can we climb to the infinite." He states: "Again, I did not come into this world to lift you up but rather to cast you down to the bottom of the abyss."

  • Frankist Territorialism and Exile: Frankist interpretations of Kabbalah included the idea that Israel's exile was part of a plan to destroy "kelipot" (shells of evil) globally, and that a simple return to the Land of Israel would not be sufficient.

3. The Illuminati, Rothschilds, and a Global Conspiracy:

  • Foundation of the Illuminati and Rothschild Financing: Adam Weishaupt, described as the son of a Jewish Kabbalist Rabbi educated by Jesuits, founded the Order of Perfectibilists (Illuminati) on May 1, 1776. He is said to have formed an alliance with Lord Meyer Rothschild, who "financed the Illuminati agenda."

  • Kabbalistic Timing and Numerology: Weishaupt is claimed to have chosen the date May 1, 1776, based on Kabbalistic numerology to ensure the plan's success.

  • "Novus Ordo Seclorum" and World Government: The Illuminati's goal is stated as the establishment of a "Novus Ordo Seclorum" - a New World Order or One World Government, ruled from Jerusalem.

  • Rothschild's 25-Point Plan: Meyer Rothschild is said to have summoned 12 men and presented a plan to gain control of global wealth and resources. This plan included using "Liberalism" to usurp political power, initiating class warfare, dismantling institutions, and remaining invisible.

  • Control Through Vice and Propaganda: The plan included using "alcoholic liquors, drugs, moral corruption and all forms of vice to corrupt the youth" and using the press for propaganda to control information while remaining in the shadows. The goal was to appear as "saviors" after making the populace prey to criminals.

  • Infiltration of Elites: The Illuminati planned to make "molders of public opinion (priests, writers, officials) into obedient tools" and "surround the princes" as advisers to influence politics.

  • Rothschild Family Rules for Maintaining Power: Meyer Rothschild's will is described as outlining specific rules for his descendants to maintain the family's financial empire and influence, including keeping important posts within the family, intermarrying, and keeping the estate's value secret.

4. The Role of Zionism and Anti-Semitism in the Conspiracy:

  • Zionist Deal in World War I: The text claims that Zionists in Germany went to the British War Cabinet in 1916 and guaranteed US entry into World War I in exchange for Palestine after the war, stating: "You can win this war if the United States will come in as your ally... We will guarantee to bring the United States into the war as your ally... if you will promise us Palestine after you win the war."

  • Banker-Induced Hyperinflation in Germany: The post-WWI hyperinflation in Germany is attributed to the "privatized" Reichsbank and its monopoly on money creation, rather than the German government.

  • Hitler's Challenge to International Bankers: Adolf Hitler is presented as having challenged the "Rockefeller-Rothschild rules" by issuing Germany's own debt-free Reichsmarks, thereby "completely thwarting the international banking cartels." His economic success is claimed to be based on this, not rearmament spending, contradicting a "myth."

  • Zionism Harnessing Anti-Semitism: The text claims that Zionist leaders, like Theodor Herzl, foresaw and exploited anti-Semitism to achieve their goals. Herzl is quoted as saying: "It would be an excellent idea to call in respectable, accredited anti-Semites as liquidators of property.. The anti-Semites will become our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies." Historian Benny Morris is cited as describing how Herzl "recognized that anti-Semitism would be harnessed to his own Zionist purposes."

  • Persecution as a Means to Force Migration: Historian Christopher Jon Bjerknes is cited claiming that to force Jews to Palestine, the Rothschilds needed to put "Hitler and Stalin in power and persecute Jews on a massive and unprecedented scale."

  • Judaism Hijacked by Kabbalistic Bankers: Jewish author Dr. Henry Makow is quoted stating that the Illuminati is a "tiny nucleus of Kabbalistic bankers and Masons based in London and directed by the House of Rothschild." He asserts that "Judaism has been hijacked" and is now based on the Talmud rather than Moses' vision.

5. Ancient Advanced Civilizations and Forgotten History:

  • Recurring Global Catastrophes and Select Few Remembering: The introduction to "Species with Amnesia" posits that "Highly advanced civilizations have been here before us, just to be destroyed by some great global catastrophe." A "selected few" are said to hold onto the knowledge of these past races. The book's title reflects this idea: "In many ways, we are like an awakening Species with Amnesia, yearning to reclaim our forgotten past."

  • Atlantis as a Global Seafaring Civilization: Atlantis is presented as a historical reality, not a myth, based on Plato's account. It is described as a "global sea-faring civilization" that predates recorded history.

  • Plato's Description of Atlantis: Key details from Plato's Critias are included, such as the division of the land among "gods" (an elite bloodline) and mortals, Poseidon's rule, the physical description of the city (rings of land and water, advanced architecture), and its eventual destruction by earthquakes and floods. The Egyptian word for Atlantis is given as "Aten or Atlen."

  • Recurring List of Ten Rulers: The text notes that the list of ten rulers of Atlantis mentioned by Plato is found in "all ancient works referring to antediluvian, pre-flood times, including the Bible and Sumerian King list." This connects the Atlantean narrative to ancient king lists and the idea of a common origin for ancient mythologies.

  • Thoth the Atlantean: King Thoth is mentioned as being "often called Thoth the Atlantean or the Scribe" and credited with inventing writing.

  • Genetic Evidence Challenging Mainstream Narratives: The text highlights genetic research (mtDNA and Y-chromosome analysis) that it claims conflicts with existing archaeological paradigms, particularly regarding migration patterns.

  • Distinct Human Populations (Cro-Magnon, Rh-Negative): The existence of distinct populations, such as the Cro-Magnons in Sweden and the Canary Islands (Guanches), is emphasized. The text discusses the prevalence of Rh-negative blood types in certain populations (like the Basques and Guanches) and speculates on its origin and possible connection to an ancient, non-human ancestry. The fact that "certain northern European populations have an immunity to HIV" through Rh-negative blood is highlighted.

  • The Basque People as a Relic: The Basque people are presented as potential "direct descendants of the Ice Age Cro-Magnon people" who avoided assimilation and maintained a language (Basque) seen as a "last relic of a prehistoric world language that was spoken on both sides of the Atlantic."

  • Phoenician and Aryan Migrations: The texts discuss the widespread travels of the Phoenicians, potentially reaching Brazil based on the Paraiba Stone Inscription. The Aryans are described as a nomadic people who spread their language and culture across Europe and India, influencing major religions and the development of modern languages.

  • The Swastika as an Ancient Global Symbol: The swastika is presented as a sacred symbol with origins in ancient cultures worldwide, suggesting a common source, possibly Atlantis.

  • Evidence of Advanced Ancient Construction: The perfect fitting of large stones in ancient structures in Peru (e.g., Machu Picchu) is presented as evidence of advanced knowledge and technology, with locals attributed as saying it was built by "giants or the gods."

  • Alternative Astronomical Theories (Nemesis): The text explores the possibility of a companion star to our sun, "Nemesis," being responsible for periodic global catastrophes and mass extinctions. Sedna, a dwarf planet with an unusual orbit, is cited as a major clue to Nemesis's existence.

6. Secret Societies and Hidden Influence:

  • Sabbatean/Frankist Infiltration of Freemasonry and Illuminati: The text explicitly links Sabbateans/Frankists to the infiltration of "Masonry guilds in England" in 1717 and the formation of the Illuminati in 1776.

  • Hidden Force Behind Major Events: The "invisible network" of Sabbatean/Frankists, also called the "Cult of the All-Seeing Eye," is claimed to be the "hidden force behind events like the [American, French and Russian] revolutions, the creations of the U.N. & Israel, both World Wars (including the Holocaust!), and the assassinations of the Kennedy brothers."

  • Control of Intelligence Agencies: It is claimed that "At the highest level, all intelligence agencies (MI-6, CIA, Mossad, KGB) answer to this cartel [central banking cartel], not to their national government."

  • Hegelian Dialectic as a Tool of Manipulation: The Hegelian Dialectic (thesis + antithesis = synthesis) is presented as a method used by manipulative forces to control thought and create desired outcomes by presenting only two opposing viewpoints.

7. Critique of Mainstream Narratives:

  • Challenging Established Anthropology: "Species with Amnesia" directly challenges the "out-of-Africa" theory of human origins, suggesting an "out-of-Aftantis" origin is more plausible. It also criticizes the UNESCO statement that race is a myth, arguing for biological differences based on genetic evidence.

  • Skepticism towards Official History: Both texts demonstrate skepticism towards commonly accepted historical accounts, particularly regarding the causes of wars, economic depressions, and the motivations of powerful groups.

  • Undermining Traditional Religious Interpretations: "1666 Redemption Through Sin" presents Sabbatean and Frankist interpretations of religious law and the divine as radical departures from and critiques of traditional Judaism and Christianity.

Connections and Overlapping Ideas:

  • Sabbatean/Frankist Philosophy as a Foundation for Secret Societies: The "redemption through sin" philosophy and the concept of a hidden, crypto-identity are presented as foundational elements that carried over into the Frankist movement and subsequently into organizations like the Illuminati and Freemasonry.

  • The "All-Seeing Eye" Symbol: The "Cult of the All-Seeing Eye" moniker links the Sabbatean/Frankist network to a prominent symbol often associated with Freemasonry and conspiracy theories, even pointing to its presence on the US dollar bill.

  • Hidden Rulers and Forgotten Origins: The concept of a hidden network of powerful individuals manipulating global events in "1666 Redemption Through Sin" aligns with the idea in "Species with Amnesia" that our true history and the influence of ancient civilizations have been forgotten or concealed. Both suggest an unseen hand guiding humanity's trajectory.

  • Bloodlines and Genetics: The focus on distinct blood types (Rh-negative) and genetic evidence in "Species with Amnesia" echoes the emphasis on the Rothschild family's rules for intermarriage and maintaining their bloodline's control in "1666 Redemption Through Sin." This suggests a broader theme of the significance of bloodlines in both ancient and modern power structures.

  • Collaboration between Authors: The inclusion of titles by both Robert Sepehr and Anna Van Oort and the mention of "Robert Sepehr, Anna Van Oort - Bloodline Research" suggest a collaborative interest in themes related to hidden histories, occult practices, and the study of bloodlines. "Moon Goddess & the Occult" further points to an interest in occult themes.

Overall Assessment:

These texts present a complex and often controversial narrative of history driven by hidden forces and forgotten origins. They draw connections between seemingly disparate historical and religious movements, proposing a continuous lineage of influence from Sabbatai Zevi and Jacob Frank through the Illuminati and into modern global power structures. They also challenge mainstream scientific and historical accounts of human origins and ancient civilizations. While offering a compelling alternative perspective, the texts rely heavily on the author's interpretations and connections between various sources, often presenting them as definitive facts within the proposed framework of a global conspiracy. The inclusion of quotes from original sources adds some weight to the claims, but the overall narrative weaves together historical events, religious interpretations, and conspiracy theories in a manner that is highly speculative and often contradicts established academic consensus. The recurring emphasis on bloodlines and genetic differences adds a layer of potentially problematic interpretations of human populations.


Additional Questions

How did Sabbatean-Frankist religious and philosophical ideas influence political and social movements?

Based on the sources provided, Sabbatean-Frankist religious and philosophical ideas are presented as having a significant and covert influence on various political and social movements, particularly through secret societies like the Illuminati.

Here's a breakdown of the alleged influence:

  1. Origins in "Redemption Through Sin" and Hidden Identity:

    • Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself Messiah in 1666, and his successor Jacob Frank promoted a philosophy of "redemption through sin". This involved violating traditional religious taboos, such as dietary laws, and encouraging sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest, and religious orgies.

    • They believed the Messiah was destined to perform "strange acts" (ma'asim zarim), with Zevi's apostasy (conversion to Islam) being the most startling, necessary for his mission.

    • Followers were encouraged to outwardly convert to other religions (Islam for the Donmeh, Christianity for Frankists) while secretly maintaining their Jewish identity and mystical practices. This fostered a theme of a secret, hidden, or occult identity.

    • The core psychological principle was that "whoever is as he appears cannot be a true believer," meaning true faith and true acts must always be concealed. Jacob Frank candidly summed up his philosophy: "It is one thing to worship God and quite another to follow the path that I have taken".

  2. Influence on the Illuminati:

    • Jacob Frank is said to have entered into an alliance with Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild, forming the Order of the Illuminati.

    • Rothschild is claimed to have convinced Weishaupt to accept the Frankist doctrine and subsequently financed the Illuminati.

    • The Illuminati's objectives, influenced by this alliance, were to undermine the world's religions and power structures with the goal of ushering in a utopian era of global communism covertly ruled by their "hidden hand": the New World Order.

    • The Illuminati aimed to fulfill the Frankist plot of subverting world religions and the Zionist objective of instituting a global government ruled by a King from Jerusalem.

    • Their plan included the abolition of all monarchies, ordered governments, private property, inheritances, patriotism, nationalism, family life, marriage, and religion, while establishing communal education.

    • This agenda was to be spread using secret societies, particularly the Freemasons, infiltrating them to play out their script over centuries.

    • The Illuminati structure is compared to that of the Jesuit Order. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits, is claimed to have been a Marrano/Alumbrado (a Christian heresy started by crypto-Jews). Rabbi Isaac Luria, a follower of Loyola according to the source, is said to have enunciated the principle of actively bringing about prophecy and a New World Order through magic and manipulating political/moral circumstances.

  3. Methods and Strategies:

    • The Illuminati planned to control the world's wealth, natural resources, and manpower through a 25-point plan.

    • Methods included preaching "Liberalism" to usurp power, initiating class warfare, dismantling institutions, using mob psychology, advocating vices like alcohol and drugs, and controlling the press for propaganda.

    • They intended to remain invisible until powerful enough to resist opposition.

    • They planned to create problems or crises, elicit a public reaction demanding a solution, and then implement their predetermined solution, a process described as the Hegelian Dialectic (problem, reaction, solution). This is managed by those who "hold the purse string".

    • A key strategy was the infiltration of Freemasonry, especially the Grand Orient Lodges, using philanthropy as a cloak while spreading their atheistic-materialistic ideology among non-Jews through deception.

    • The Illuminati (defined as descendants of Templars and Kabbalist bankers like the Rothschilds) are described as practicing "aberrated forms of Frankist-Luciferianism (hardcore Satanism)". They used Kabbalistic concepts related to the sexual union of deities as a basis for Illuminati sex cults mirroring Sabbatean/Frankist practices like ritualistic wife sharing, drug use, orgies, adultery, and incest. This sexual abandon is characterized as a feature of Communist philosophy, seen as a direct outgrowth of Sabbatean-Frankism.

  4. Impact on Specific Movements:

    • Freemasonry: Sabbateanism is called a "matrix" for early Masonic circles. The Illuminati actively infiltrated and eventually controlled every Masonic order in the world, using lodges as a "nursery garden". Albert Pike is cited as stating that Freemasons are deliberately lied to about the meaning of their symbols.

    • Zionism: The Illuminati agenda included the Zionist objective of a global government ruled from Jerusalem. The British-Israelite movement within Freemasonry (1860s) aimed to establish a Jewish-Masonic state in Palestine, with Jewish Masonic families like the Rothschilds providing capital. The source claims Theodor Herzl, the father of modern Zionism, promoted anti-Semitism and saw anti-Semitic countries as allies to expedite the movement by making life intolerable for Jews in Europe. Persecution (specifically under Hitler and Stalin) is presented as necessary to force Jews to Palestine. A "formal partnership" between Zionists and Nazis is claimed, where Labour Zionists (who allegedly trained Jews in Bolshevism in Nazi camps) collaborated to get Jews to Palestine while letting others perish, transferring wealth.

    • Communism: Communism is described as a direct outgrowth of Sabbatean-Frankism. The Illuminati bankers are said to have created Communism to harness the working class for their goal of a world dictatorship ("globalization"). Illuminati and Communists are presented as Masonic secret societies sharing symbols and anniversaries. Fritz Springmeier connects Marxism to Frankism, viewing it as a "satanic cult".

    • Revolutionary Idealism: Sabbateanism is called a "matrix" for revolutionary idealism in the 18th/19th centuries. The Illuminati are presented as being behind historical events like the American, French, and Russian revolutions.

  5. Control of Finance and Information:

    • The Rothschilds, a key family in this alleged network, used the Illuminati/Masonic network to entrench their banking empire throughout Europe. Their will enforced family control, intermarriage, and secrecy.

    • They controlled major news agencies (Wolff, Reuters, Havas) by the late 1800s to control media. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) was set up by Jacob Schiff (part of the Rothschild syndicate) in 1913 to label critics of the "Rothschild global conspiracy" as anti-semitic, leading to media silence on the Rothschilds.

    • By 1940, publications owned by central bankers and their fronts included major newspapers and magazines.

    • This "invisible network" (Sabbatean/Frankists) is described as having infiltrated, used stealth and cunning, and come to rule over people by being political and religious chameleons operating on all sides of power.

In summary, the sources claim that Sabbatean-Frankist antinomian and hidden-identity philosophies merged with the financial power of families like the Rothschilds and the organizational structure of groups like the Jesuits, influencing the creation and agenda of the Illuminati. This group then allegedly used secret societies, particularly Freemasonry, and control over finance and media to covertly manipulate political and social movements, including Zionism and Communism, towards the goal of a New World Order achieved through subverting existing power structures and religions and exploiting crises. The "redemption through sin" aspect is linked to the promotion of vices and ritualistic sexual practices within these secret groups.

Who founded the Order of the Illuminati?

Based on the sources provided:

The Order of the Illuminati, formally known as the Orden der Perfektibilisten (The Order of Perfectibilists), was officially founded on May 1, 1776, by Adam Weishaupt.

According to the sources, the formation of this organization was part of an alliance involving Adam Weishaupt, Meyer Amshel Rothschild, and Jacob Frank.

More specifically, it is stated that Frankfurt was the headquarters of both the Jesuit, Adam Weishaupt, founder of the Illuminati, and the Rothschild Brothers’ financial empire. When Jacob Frank entered Frankfurt, the alliance between Weishaupt and Rothschild had already begun. In this alliance, Weishaupt is described as providing the conspiratorial resources of the Jesuit Order, while the Rothschilds contributed the money. The Frankists, led by Jacob Frank, added their network of agents throughout the Christian and Islamic worlds, which was missing as a means to spread the Illuminati agenda. Rabbi Marvin Antelman claims that Rothschild convinced Weishaupt to accept the Frankist doctrine and afterward financed the Illuminati.

Adam Weishaupt is said to have based the structure of the Order of the Illuminati on approximately the same structural principles as the Jesuit Order, working for five years to develop or modify a system with three classes. When Weishaupt became a member of the Grand Orient Masonic lodge, Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1743-1812) is noted as providing the financial backing for the lodge.

When did Sabbatai Zevi declare himself Messiah?

Based on the sources, Sabbatai Zevi declared himself the Messiah in 1666.

He formally revealed himself and made this pronouncement in the year 1666 after considerable encouragement from Nathan of Gaza, who became his greatest proponent and interpreter.

The sources note that the numerological value of dates was significant in Lurianic Kabbalah, and Sabbatai Zevi's advent was anticipated around the 18th day (6+6+6), of the 6th month, of the year 1666.

Who was Sabbatai Zevi's successor?

Based on the sources provided, Sabbatai Zevi's successor was Jacob Frank.

Here's what the sources say about him as Sabbatai Zevi's successor:

  • After Sabbatai Zevi's death in 1676, his philosophy was continued and expanded on by his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank.

  • Jacob Frank is regarded as Sabbatai's true successor.

  • Frankism, the religious movement centered on Jacob Frank, was instigated by the Lurianic Kabbalah and expanded on the 'redemption through sin' philosophy made popular by Zevi.

  • Like Zevi, Frank performed "strange acts that violated traditional religious taboos". These included eating forbidden fats, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality.

  • Frank extended Zevi's paradoxical teachings, believing that the messianic age transformed sexual prohibitions into permissions and even obligations, with engaging in sexual orgies becoming a means to purify the soul.

  • Frank taught his followers that they must outwardly become Christians to survive, just as the Donmeh had converted to Islam. This continued the theme of a secret, hidden, or occult identity established by Sabbateanism.

  • Jacob Frank is described as one of the most frightening phenomena in Jewish history. He summed up his philosophy by saying, “It is one thing to worship God and quite another to follow the path that I have taken”.

  • His cult, despite having a smaller following than Zevi, grew to include some of Europe's royalty, nobility, and richest bankers.

  • Frank is specifically mentioned as entering into an alliance in Frankfurt with Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild, an alliance in which he added the network of Frankist agents needed to spread the Illuminati agenda, receiving a handout from Rothschild.

  • Frank is linked to Marxism, with the sources describing it as a "satanic cult called Frankism".

In essence, Jacob Frank is presented as the figure who carried forward and intensified the radical and antinomian aspects of Sabbateanism after Zevi's death.

Examine the occult and esoteric significance of Sepehr's writings

Based on the provided sources and our conversation history, Robert Sepehr's writings extensively examine occult and esoteric themes.

Here's an examination of the occult and esoteric significance of his writings as presented in the sources:

  • Robert Sepehr is described as an author, producer, and anthropologist who specializes in various fields, including occult secret societies, ancient mythology, alchemy, and astrotheology. This specialization indicates that these topics are central to his research and writing.

  • His book titles and chapter headings reflect this focus, such as "1666 Redemption Through Sin: Global Conspiracy in History, Religion, Politics and Finance," which features chapters like "Sabbatai Zevi," "Jacob Frank," "Adam Weishaupt," "The Illuminated," "The Secrets of Zion," and "The Burnt Offering". Another book title is "Moon Goddess & the Occult", and his research blog mentions "Sacred Bloodlines and esoteric Secrets of the Skull".

  • A major theme is the examination of Sabbateanism and its continuation through Frankism. These movements are described in the sources as focusing on Kabbalah and the concept of "redemption through sin," promoting antinomianism (the deliberate violation of religious laws and taboos). Specific practices discussed include eating forbidden foods, ritual sacrifice, sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest, and religious orgies. The philosophy included the idea that engaging in such acts could purify the soul or expose the illusory nature of evil to elevate divine sparks.

  • Sepehr's writings, according to the sources, explore the occult principle of concealment or a secret identity, where true faith or acts must be hidden. Jacob Frank taught his followers to outwardly convert to other religions (Christianity) while secretly maintaining their identity and practices, mirroring the Donmeh's conversion to Islam.

  • The writings delve into the Illuminati as a key secret society. The sources discuss its founding by Adam Weishaupt, alleged alliance with Meyer Amshel Rothschild and Jacob Frank, and its structure supposedly based on the Jesuits. The stated true purpose of the Order is presented as establishing a global program for world domination (Novus Ordo Seclorum). The sources claim the Illuminati infiltrated Freemasonry and intentionally misled lower-degree members about the true meaning of symbols. The Illuminati are also linked to Frankist-Luciferianism (hardcore Satanism) and are said to practice aberrated forms of it. Ritualistic sex rites mirroring ancient practices are attributed to "Illuminated" secret societies, connected to Frankism and Communism.

  • The influence of Kabbalah is highlighted as a central element. Lurianic Kabbalah is discussed, particularly its emphasis on actively bringing about messianic prophecy and "repairing the world" (tikkun olam). This included the concept of uplifting divine sparks trapped in the material world, sometimes through "deliberate forays into the world of sin". The sources state that Kabbalah is the "keystone of all Western occult thought and practice today" and the "cornerstone of belief for all Illumined Ones". It is also connected to the Templars and Hermetic Kabbalah.

  • Astrotheology and ancient solar mysteries are explored. This involves the study and reverence of astronomical cycles and celestial bodies, particularly the Sun as a symbol of "Divine Light". The sources discuss the spread of these solar-based mysteries from ancient Aryan cultures to various religions, including Hinduism, Persian Mithraism, and Egyptian religion (Osiris). Symbols like the swastika and the cross are interpreted within this astrotheological framework, often linked to solar symbolism and cardinal points.

  • The research includes tracing ancient occult bloodlines and their alleged connections to historical power structures and secret societies like the Templars and Illuminati. These bloodlines are linked to Kabbalist bankers and heretical/crypto Jews.

  • The esoteric significance of symbols is analyzed, such as the skull and crossbones, which is linked to Templars, piracy, and interpreted through Hermetic Kabbalah as symbolizing time, death, and rebirth, and connected to the Chi-Rho, Horus, and the serpent (wisdom, enlightenment).

In summary, Sepehr's writings, according to the sources, examine a range of occult and esoteric beliefs and practices, tracing their historical connections, philosophical underpinnings (particularly in Kabbalah), and alleged influence on secret societies like the Illuminati and on major historical events, often framing these concepts within the context of ancient mysteries, symbolism, and conspiracy theories.

Discuss the origin of the swastika symbol.

Based on the sources, the origin of the swastika symbol is presented as ancient, widespread, and tied to specific historical groups and esoteric meanings.

Here's a discussion on the origin of the swastika symbol according to the sources:

  • The swastika is described as one of the oldest documented prehistoric symbols. It has various names in different cultures, such as the 'Swastika' in India, the 'Fylfot' in England, the 'Hakenkreuz' in Germany, the 'Tetra Gammadion' in Greece, the 'Wan' in China, and the 'Manji' in Japan.

  • According to Thomas Wilson's 1896 book, the swastika was an "Aryan symbol used by the Aryan peoples before their dispersion through Asia and Europe". It is suggested that this symbol, as a sacred symbol, might have been carried to different peoples and countries during the migrations of these Aryan peoples.

  • The symbol is considered a "sacred solar symbol" that has been profoundly venerated among widely dispersed ancient cultures from the earliest times.

  • The swastika's significance is strongly linked to the Sun. It is an emblem of the solar year and Plato's "Great Year" (precession of the equinox). The ancient Greeks associated it with the sun god Apollo, demonstrating its historic and universal use as a solar emblem. A swastika composed of Hebrew letters from a Jewish Kabbalistic work, surrounded by a hymn referring to the power of the Sun, also shows strong solar symbolism. This Kabbalistic symbol is an adaptation from an early Hebrew symbol meaning "eternity in motion," meant to help a mystic contemplate the cyclic nature of the Universe, with the letters representing the initial and final characters of the Hebrew word for 'light'.

  • Examples of its ancient appearance include a mammoth ivory bird figurine with swastika symbols found at Mezin in Ukraine, dated to 13,000 BC, described as the earliest known swastika inscribed figurine carved from mammoth ivory. Swastika-adorned pottery dating to around 100 B.C. has also been found with the pre-Inca Chachapoya civilization in Peru. It has also been found with Caucasoid mummies in the Tarim Basin.

  • The symbol appeared in diverse religious and cultural contexts across the globe, seen on Buddhist zodiacs, Asoka inscriptions, and as a sectarian mark of Jains, among others in Asia. It was used by various tribes in North and South America, such as the Mixtecos, Aztecs, Hopi, Navajo (though they later discontinued use), and Muyscas.

  • The presence of the swastika symbol in widely separated cultures, such as the Basques and the Aryans of India, who had never been in physical contact, suggests they acquired it from a common source. This source is potentially a global sea-faring civilization; possibly Atlantis.

  • The swastika symbol and its meaning were brought into India with the Aryans and predate written Sanskrit itself, which was also introduced to India by the Aryans.

In summary, the sources posit that the swastika is an extremely old, global symbol, strongly associated with solar worship and linked to the migrations of ancient Aryan peoples, possibly originating from a common, even Atlantean, source.

Where did the Basque people come from?

Based on the sources and our conversation history, the origin of the Basque people is presented as ancient and somewhat mysterious, with academic theories and local traditions pointing towards different possibilities, often linked to early European populations and a hypothesized lost civilization.

Here's a breakdown of their discussed origins according to the sources:

  • Location and Uniqueness: The Basques are a people who live in a small region nestled in the mountains between France and Spain, called Euskal Herria. They have long puzzled anthropologists, linguists, and historians because they are Caucasoid but do not fit in with the rest of the European populations.

  • Language: Their language, Euskara, is distinctly unique in Europe and not related to any other Indo-European tongue. It is considered one of the most primitive languages of Europe, existing before others, with no proven congeners. While linguists disagree on its origins, some theories suggest possible relations to languages like Georgian, Berber, and Quechua. Some sources propose that pre-Celtic Welsh was identical to Basque. Their ancient language is reflected in words like their term for knife, meaning "stone that cuts," and ceiling, meaning "top of the cavern". Linguist R. Cedric Leonard considers Basque part of a "Berber-Ibero-Basque Language Complex" which might represent the original language of the Atlanteans.

  • Genetics and Physical Traits: Basques contain among the highest levels of Rh-negative blood in the world, with around 35% in higher regions, and among the lowest Type B blood. Genetics indicates that the RH negative factor originated in early Europeans at the time of Cro-Magnon. The presence of Haplogroup X in ancient remains in the Basque area shows an ancient connection to North American Indian populations that predates Columbus. They are among the most closely related genetically to the original Upper Paleolithic Europeans. The Basques are described as a semi-isolated population of native European people.

  • Connection to Cro-Magnon: Some sources suggest they have lived in the Basque area since Cro-Magnon man first roamed Europe, specifically around the Pyrenees mountains where famous Cro-Magnon artwork is found. Ethnologist Michael A. Etcheverry considers them the direct descendants of the Ice Age Cro-Magnon people who largely avoided genetic and linguistic changes during the Neolithic expansion. Professional anthropologists have postulated that the modern-day Basque people speak a language inherited directly from Cro-Magnon Man. Cro-Magnon's geographical distribution is noted as being closest to the western part of Europe and North Africa, including Atlantic islands.

  • Connection to Atlantis: More fanciful theories propose the Basques are descendants of the survivors of Atlantis. The majority of the Basque people themselves believe they came from "Atlaintika," a powerful maritime nation that sank, with survivors reaching the Pyrenees mountains and the Bay of Biscay. They consider this their true pre-European ancestry, not just mythology. Edgar Cayce is said to have suggested that some people who fled Atlantis settled in the Iberian Peninsula, including the area of the Basques. The presence of the ancient swastika symbol shared between Basques and distant cultures like the Aryans of India is seen as evidence of a common source, possibly a global sea-faring civilization like Atlantis. Otto Muck suggests that the Basques' clear memory of Atlantis provides a reason to believe they are a relic of it. Ernst von Salomon recorded meeting a Basque who described his people as the last relics of a world sunk with Atlantis, with the Pyrenees as one of its last pillars. Madame Blavatsky points out the genetic relations between Basques, Cro-Magnon, and the Guanches (described as lineal descendants of Atlanteans), stating their Atlantean affinities are patent. The naming of places like Atalya in Basque country, similar to names in other "presumably Atlantean peoples," suggests they were within the Atlantean sphere of influence. The second wave of Haplogroup X entering America aligning with the date of Atlantis' sinking as given by Plato also supports a connection.

In summary, while academically their exact origin remains uncertain, the sources present the Basques as a unique, ancient European population with genetic, linguistic, and traditional links to the Cro-Magnon people and, more speculatively but persistently within the sources, to the survivors of a lost Atlantean civilization.

What characteristics distinguish Cro-Magnon people?

Based on the sources and our conversation history, several characteristics distinguish the Cro-Magnon people:

  • Physical Appearance:

    • They were very tall, averaging well over six feet.

    • They were more powerfully built and more rugged than other types.

    • They had heavy cheek bones, a heavy brow, and a strong jaw.

    • The original race of Cro-Magnon was extremely dolichocephalic (long-headed from front to back).

    • They had a short face and a large forehead.

    • This combination of a long head and a short face is known as "disharmonism" and is considered a diagnostic (defining) trait of Cro-Magnon.

    • Their brain case was very large, measured at 1743cc in one specimen, which is larger than other types like Combe Capelle and Briinn Man who averaged 1525cc. Their large brain size is linked to their greater height and larger hips necessary for bipedalism with a large head.

    • Some sources associate Cro-Magnon with being fair-haired and blue-eyed. Modern Northern Europeans, described as most similar to Cro-Magnon, are noted for being tall, having a high frequency of Rh negative blood type, and being fair-haired and blue-eyed.

    • They had a high frequency of Rh-negative blood type. Genetics indicate that the Rh negative factor originated in early Europeans at the time of Cro-Magnon. Certain northern European populations, described as being among the most similar to Cro-Magnon, have an immunity to HIV, suggesting a unique biological trait.

    • They had long narrow skulls, a characteristic feature seen in some Native North Americans thought to have this Cro-Magnon heritage.

  • Culture and Technology:

    • Their stone tool assemblages were a totally new arrival, unlike the eastern European types who merely continued the earlier Neanderthal's toolkit.

    • The Cro-Magnon tool assemblage, labeled “Aurignacian,” was sophisticated and seemed to appear out of nowhere around 35,000-40,000 years ago. It arrived from outside of Western Europe, "ready-made".

    • They created the beautiful cave paintings found throughout the Pyrenees and surrounding mountains, such as those in Lascaux.

    • They possessed advanced astronomical knowledge, demonstrated by the precision of orientations and figures in their cave art aligning with constellations and solar/lunar cycles. They are described as being not only artists but also astronomers and mathematicians.

    • They recorded lunar and solar cycles and astrology using symbols scratched on bones.

    • They had an advanced culture that included wearing tailored clothes, hats, and being clean-shaven. Bone needles and obsidian razors have been found.

    • They developed close-fitting pants, shirts, shawls, hoods, and long boots to protect from the cold, with construction approaching that of modern Eskimos.

    • They are depicted with a sense of humor in caricatures, and wore bracelets and necklaces, indicating that real jewelry began at this time.

    • They had a different set of tools and settlement patterns compared to the eastern European types.

    • Their archeological sites are usually thick, indicating a long, settled occupation in one place, clustering toward the western portions of Europe and Africa. In contrast, the eastern types were wanderers with thin, widely scattered sites.

    • They commonly lived in houses of some sort, not just caves, with villages consisting of houses evidenced by hearths and post hole patterns.

    • They had sophisticated tools like spear throwers (“atlatl”), harpoons, bows and arrows, arrow straighteners, obsidian razors, needles, musical instruments, and bone calendars with symbolic notations bordering on writing.

    • They domesticated several species of animals, potentially including the horse, evidenced by engravings showing lines resembling bridles. This is described as a "Neolithic" trait present in this Paleolithic culture.

    • Evidence at some sites, dating back as far as 16,000 B.C., suggests they practiced agriculture, labeled as a "false dawn" by archaeologists who couldn't account for it.

  • Geographical Distribution and Origin:

    • Cro-Magnon first appeared in the fossil record just under 40,000 years ago.

    • Their geographical distribution in Europe lies closest to the western part of Europe and North Africa, especially on nearby Atlantic islands like the Canary Islands and Azores.

    • Four stages of Cro-Magnon peoples appear in northern Africa, including the Canary Islands, and fanning out from that western location. Anthropologists also found four stages of remains/tools in the Azores and other Atlantic islands.

    • They are described as "Atlantic" due to their geographical distribution.

    • Their culture, the Aurignacian, arrived from some area outside of Western Europe with an "established way of life," and no formative or gestation stages have been found on any continent for any of their tool industries.

    • Their sudden periodic migrations and appearance on the western shores of Europe and North Africa, with sites clustering in the west, have puzzled anthropologists. The mystery of their origin to the west, across the ocean, has been embarrassing for many anthropologists.

    • The sources strongly suggest, or explicitly state, that Cro-Magnon populations migrated from a common source potentially located in the Atlantic, possibly a large land mass like Atlantis, providing migrations to both Europe and America.

    • The fossil and genetic record does not indicate that they originated in sub-Saharan Africa.

In essence, the sources present Cro-Magnon as a distinct, physically imposing, large-brained population with advanced cultural traits (including sophisticated tools, art, astronomy, and possibly early agriculture/domestication) that appeared suddenly in the archaeological record around 40,000 years ago, primarily distributed in Western Europe and North Africa, and hypothesized to originate from a now-submerged Atlantic source.
