                         THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR

   THE ONCE AND FUTURE ORDER

I have been open about the origins of cDt being in my guided spiritual path and recall of past lives. By 2021 I believed I had been made aware of all the lives most meaningful to this stage of my life and cDt – but how wrong I was!

Which brings me to Ashkelon, a city on the Mediterranean in the Southern District of Israel, named after the ancient seaport Ascalon; whose remains lie on the south-western edge of the modern city. For many years whenever I read or heard references to it, it elicited a emotional response and I knew it was connected to an unknown past life.

In 2021 it came strongly to the fore of my mind and gradually the past-life related to it was revealed; one that surprised me greatly, I was being shown I had been a Knight Templar. I have to first say I always bear in mind Rudolf Steiner’s stricture that if you deal with hidden things, you can be swept away on the wings of fantasy; so, for me, each time information from a supernatural source is given to me, it has to make sense, tie in together, and reveal things to me I had no knowledge of; for instance understanding the design of cDt took me many long years, made perfect sense and was outside my own range of understanding at the time it was given to me.

I was first shown myself as a young man, I thought sixteen or seventeen years old (so I assume I was a squire), with my Templar master at the siege of Ashkelon in 1153. The next thing I was shown was myself as a Templar knight I thought in my late forties, with a jagged scar running down my right cheek, clearly in a position of power at the head of a group of knights; and then saw my death, in the midst of fighting, on horseback being skewered in the middle by a lance and pulled to the ground to be killed. I was given the name Tripoli. I wondered at the time if I had fought in a battle of Tripoli but there was no such battle. I have come to the conclusion that I died during fighting at the battle of Hattin and Tripoli would have been at the forefront of my thinking because the battle occurred, through the stupidity of the leadership, on the way to relieve the siege of Tiberias which belonged to Count Raymond III of Tripoli and was in the crusader state of Tripoli; not only that, was I aware during the moments before I died, that the count, commander of the army’s vanguard, with his contingent had deserted the field and left us to our fate? The battle of Hattin happened in 1187, so it would have made me if I was either sixteen or seventeen at the Siege of Ashkelon fifty or fifty-one when I died – which tied in with how old I appeared to be before the battle.

There is a third matter which added further confirmation to the fact I had lived a life as a Knight Templar, it happened in 2012. A friend asked me to go with her and another friend to Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland. I felt I shouldn’t go, but said I would try to tune into them on the day they visited the chapel; which I did and saw something strange. I first told my friend what I saw them do on the day and when she confirmed that is what they had done, I then felt that I wasn’t fantasizing the incident. I followed them down (with my mind) into the chapel crypt and when I reached the bottom of the steps, I was confronted by two disincarnate Templar Knights with drawn swords who must have sensed the intrusion of my mind – they wore white tunics with a red cross but I knew they were Templars not Crusaders; I looked at them and told them to go and they went! This raised so many questions in my mind, what were they doing there? Why did I tell them to go? Why did they go? It took till 2021 and the discovery of my Templar life to relieve me of this mental torture! I said they could go because I innately knew I was one of them, and they went because they recognized I was.

To answer the question why were they there, involved contemplation, research and more revelations guiding me to a full understanding and also explaining why I needed to remember my life in the order; for Templars whether incarnate or disincarnate will play a vital role in the coming New Age.

From the spheres of influence of the same noble families of Champagne and Burgundy emerged the Cistercian monastic order called by its founder Novum Monasterium the New Monastery, the Knights Templar the new knighthood, Arthurian romance of perfect Arthur and his perfect knights pursuing spiritual goals and that enigmatic object the Holy Grail (did not originate in the Roman Church which either disapproved of or ignored it) reflected in the Templar monk-knighthood serving their king Christ.

These new movements in monastery, knighthood and literature, was a concerted plan of a group of initiates belonging to those noble families, intent on bringing a new spiritual paradigm into the consciousness of the western world (at a time the Roman Church was acting like a secular monarchy intent on all-encompassing power); a consciousness that will come to fruition in the Age of Aquarius. They also knew of the ley line and NS network, understood its importance and power and sited their buildings according to it. Rosslyn sitting over an NS is of great spiritual importance and the disincarnate Templars in the crypt were acting as guardians of the energy portal.

Rudolf Steiner said . . . in the evolution and destiny of the Templars we see an impulse that is important for all the succeeding centuries of modern times.
