The Head of God

Mind Body & Soul Ezine Book Review: The Head of God - The Lost Treasure of the Templars by Keith Laidler PhD.

In the opening paragraph, the author misquotes the title of the Order, as ‘The Poor Knights of the Temple of Solomon’. It seems a popular modern manipulation to cut out the most relevant part of their title, as templar knights were baptised and confirmed Christian, they recited the Apostles Creed, made Christian Confession, took Holy Communion, gave up their lands and family to fight unto death two thousand miles from home, and they received the Christian Last Rites upon their deathbed! They were the Poor Fellow Soldiers of Christ primarily, and also took vows of personal poverty, all wealth was owned by The Vatican.

The Holy Blood and Holy Grail book which was based on the discredited Priory of Sion, is justified here, a concern that this will only mislead readers. However, I read on! Ancient stories of heads are explored, starting with the head of Adam outside Jerusalem, and then to the time of Akhenaton, the heretic Pharaoh, through to the Druidic head cult, to Bran’s head in the Tower of London, to the Templars and their search for relics to pay for the new cathedrals. These heads were said to possess powers of healing, prophecy, and some could speak! It was the seat of the soul, and therefore divine!

There is a good write up on the Seige of Acre. But we need to look at conjecture and supposition as we don’t have a great deal of evidential information about any of these dead heads, or about the Templars who we must remember were tortured for confessions which they retracted before they were burnt at the stake. So many experts on the Templars ignore the torture and the recanting of the confessions - and this book is no different so we are led to believe that the knights worshipped a dead head of varying descriptions. 

Sigmund Freud had a hypothesis that Moses was not a Jew, but a follower of the extraordinary 18th dynasty heretical Egyptian king, Akhenaton whose head cult came to Ireland with the Lia Fail black stone throne. A Canaanite head cult goes back 9000 years! All this is linked to the Great White Brotherhood and the Rosicrucians. Even the described Ark of the Covenant was Egyptian in origin and was carried by the Pharaoh in a similar way to the Hebrews. I enjoyed the connection to Scota and her entourage from Egypt to Scotland and Ireland, the Palestinian Jacob’s Pillar, cornerstone of Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem, aka  the Bethel Stone, that was taken to Ireland by Jeremiah and the Princess Tamar, daughter of Zedekiah. This is separate from the Stone of Destiny, Jacob’s Pillow that sat in Westminster Abbey upon which British royalty is crowned - but could the real stone throne of Destiny still be in Scotland in Macbeth’s Castle in Dunsinane? 

Who is the Masonic Widow’s Son? Horus - not Jesus! The elite patriarchs of the Jewish Bible can trace their ancestry to the Egyptians, as could Jesus! (of course, the most unedifying stories of Jesus were dredged up from obscure sources.) According to the anti Christian author, Keith Laidler, Jesus was an Akhenaton descendant, of the head cult, and was not crucified but beheaded and his head was embalmed! New thoughts on old themes!
