The Thule Society - The "Thule-Gesellshaft"
The immense interest of the fuhrer and Nazi hierarchy for the occult, the various military campaigns in remote places, the search for the objects of the "Power", the secret weapons in production and the extraordinary idealogical charge that was exerted on the minds of the German troops. Well, behind this hidden face of Nazism there is an esoteric group that set up a regime capable of changing the fate of all humanity in a few years: the Thule Society (Thule Gesellschaft).
The founder of this group was Rudolph Blauer (who later changed his name to Rudolf von Sebottendorff), a wealthy German who was educated on the secrets of Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism and Eastern mysticism during a trip to Turkey. Sebottendorff provided the esoteric base for the Thule Society, which was officially born in August 1918 taking its name from the legendary Arctic northern island.
This society has always had a mysticism, it was inspired by the theosophical writings, oriental, mixing anti-Semitism, stories of the Grail, runic mystification and Nordic paganism, ideological background in which the SS would then fished with both hands. This is in fact the starting point of the German National Socialist Party: Aldolf Hitler and his movement forged their thinking and began their climb right in the shadow of these controversial characters.
A vast esoteric, mystical organization, the group of members of the society periodically met in the luxurious rooms of the Four Seasons Hotel in Munich. It had 500 members in Bavaria and 250 in Monaco alone.
Characterized by a lively nationalism and intense anti-Semitism, among his followers he included Dietrich Eckart, Rudolf Hess, Alfred Rosenberg, Hans Frank, Gottfried Feder, some of Hitler's greatest hierarchs.
Among them, Hans Frank, the future Nazi governor of Poland, who at the time worked for a heraldic research company, discovered, in a coat of arms of the Hohenzollerns, a swastika cross, a sacred symbol of Thule society.
La Thule also inspired the theories of Karl Haushofer, a professor of geopolitics, a convinced supporter of the return of Greater Germany and of its need to acquire a living space in the east, which would in turn guarantee Germany dominion over the world. The teachings to which the company draws most were, however, those of von Liebenfels, an excommunicated Benedictine monk, founder of the "Order of the new Templars", a sect that preached the myth of the perfect race
The ideological legacy of Thule society was collected by the German National Socialist Party (NSDAP). Hitler and his movement forged their thinking and began their climb in the shadow of controversial figures like Glauer and Eckart. Hitler was initiated into the Society in 1919 by Dietrich Eckart, who at the time was its leader. He later dedicated the Mein Kampf to it. There is no evidence that Hitler took part in meetings of the Thule after the initiation.
Thule, referred to by the company of the same name, is the name of a mythical island, also known as Tile, which the Greek explorer Pytheas seems to have encountered during a trip to the North Atlantic, around 330 BC. in his stories he speaks of an island of fire and ice where the sun never descends below the horizon. Identified in ancient times with Iceland, today we tend to believe that it was an offshoot of the coast of Norway. During the late antiquity and in the Middle Ages the memory of the island of the fire in the ice generated a persistent myth. Ultima Thule, or the extreme earth knowable, as it was defined by the poet Virgil
Among the members of the Thule were: Rudolf Hess, Wilhelm Frick, Julius Streicher, Alfred Rosenberg, Hans Frank, Max Altmann, Anton Drexler, Dietrich Eckart, Gottfried Feder, Karl Harrer, Ernst Halbritter, Walter Deicke, Franz Dannehl, Walter Nauhaus, Georg Baubatz, Johannes Hering, Herman Pohl, Michael Lotter, Friedrich Krohn. All characters who in one way or another subsequently acquired a key role in the ascent of Hitler
Here's what Sebottendorff himself says in his "Before Hitler came"
"Nauhaus proposed to give him the official name of Thule Society, approved by Sebottendorff, who judged it as mysteriously evocative enough, reserving however to illustrate its authentic purpose to those in duty. The consecration of the rooms destined to host the headquarters was celebrated 17th day of the month of Ernting - (August) - of 1918. The ceremony was attended by both Presidents of the Germanic Order, who appointed Sebottendorff to represent them, conferring him the office of Master. (...) Every member of the Order wore as a badge a bronze brooch, (...) bearing within a shield, a Crucified Cross intersected by two crossed lances, symbolic mark that had been taken up by an archaic prototype found in Silesia, depicting an Uncinata Cross affixed to an ancient Germanic ax The sisters affiliated to the Order had instead adopted a simple Crisscrossed Cross in gold as a badge.
It seems that, in the context of Sufism, Sebontendorff had come into contact with Georges Ivanovich Gurdjieff and that his occult rites, also influenced by the teachings of the Spiritual Master, sought the elevation and the overcoming of the torpid and obtuse waking state to obtain, through hard work on oneself, a higher level of awareness.
Finally, "the Thule Society Master believed in the fundamental truth of Monism. For him heaven and earth were not in opposition to each other, but belonged to the same reality, both spiritual and material, God is not external to man, but it is, after all, the very destiny of every individual.
To achieve these results, the initiates of the Thule met sometimes in the woods near watercourses and performed the occult rites there.
On 12 September 1919 Adolf Hitler joined the DAP (Deutsche Arbeiterpartei). He did not even know Sebottendorff, but was initiated by members of Thule, including Harrer, Drexler, Eckart and Rudolf Hess, a fellow prisoner in Landsberg and a faithful writer of "Mein Kampf".
"They are visitors from another plane." The medium is possessed of him. "Freed from this demon, he falls back into mediocre, so that undeniably some forces invade Hitler, almost infernal forces, of which the body called Hitler is only the temporary shell. "
(Hermann Rauschning, "Hitler speaks", translated in Italy, "Hitler told me").
