	The Invisible Basilica: Gerard Encausse (Papus)
		He was born at La Coruña in Spain on July 13, 1865, of a Spanish mother and a French father, Louis Encausse, a chemist.
		The Martinist Order was to become a primary focus for Papus, and continues today as one of his most enduring legacies.
		In 1895, Doinel abdicated as Primate of the French Gnostic Church leaving control of the Church to a synod of three of his former bishops, one of whom was Papus.

	Illuminati - LoveToKnow 1911
		Of different class were the so-called Illuminati, better known as Rosicrucians, who claimed to originate in 1422, but rose into notice in 1537; a secret society, combining with the mysteries of alchemy the possession of esoteric principles of religion.
		Internal rupture preceded its downfall, which was effected by an edict of the Bavarian government in 1785.
		Later, the title Illuminati was given to the French Martinists, founded in 1754 by Martinez Pasqualis, and to their imitators, the Russian Martinists, headed about 1790 by Professor Schwartz of Moscow; both were Cabalists and allegorists, imbibing ideas from Jakob Boehme and Emmanuel Swedenborg (Bergier, Dict.

	Beyond Enlightenment: occultism, politics, and culture in France from the old regime to the fin-de-siecle (1). - ...
		Modern French occultism is primarily, though by no means exclusively, a phenomenon of the political Right, with a fundamental ambivalence (if not outright rejection) toward the modern world and an emotional nostalgia for a lost golden age of mankind.
		Significantly, when a nineteenth-century French intellectual, Allan Kardec, sought to give a theological and philosophical structure to the Spiritist fad of the 1850s, he took the Martinist cosmology of the previous century and essentially grafted it onto the American import, yet another example of the syncretism of occult thought.
		French occult philosophers and writers hoped to establish a science of the supernatural, to uncover hidden principles, and to bring about a reconciliation between natural science and a natural religion.

	Illuminati - TinWiki.org
		Because the French Revolution was so radical and liberal and anti-authority, it was obvious to many people at the time that it was indeed the work of the similarly liberal, radical, secular Illuminati.
		Perhaps the most influential theorist of the role of the Illuminati in world history was Nesta Webster, whose belief that she was the reincarnation of the Comptesse de Saban (who suffered during the French Revolution) and whose ultra-right views (she became a member of the British Fascists in the late 1920s) informed her scholarship.
		In her first book, a study of the French Revolution, she claimed that the French peasantry had had little to do with it, but rather it was inspired by a group of "Illuminised Freemasons".

	History of the Illuminati
		The Conspiracy of the Equals, born inside of French Revolution, was an expression of known as revolutinary socialism, related with illuminati and their phylosophy.
		In fact, Babeuf was a man of them, the 'most distinguished of the rest of the Illuminati in the two-year period 1796-1797', according to a secret document of the illuminati.
		They participated, in some case, in French Revolution and exerted other influences; the facts that came after on North American lands were unconnected or contrary to Bavarian Illuminati.

	The Martinist Order - KIAwiki
		The Martinist Order is a formalisation of the esoteric philosophy of Martinism within a Masonic structure, with the incorporation of Occult and Rosicrucian ideas and practices brought in via the Elect Cohen system.
		Martinists generally believe that to be an authentic initiate, one must be able to show a chain of Initiatic Succession which goes back to Saint-Martin himself.
		This was opposed by the Martinists of Lyon who under their Grand Master Chevillon maintained close links to the Neo-Gnostic Church of Bricaud, and his doctrine of 'Spiritual Socialism'.

		Martine, (who established the Ordre Martiniste) and his initiator/teacher, (who founded what became a Martiniste Inner Order), both were (or claimed to have been) members.
		Martinists generally require a direct initiatic link involving the laying on of hands: since AMORC (allegedly, anyway) will initiate by post, most Martinist orders consider them not quite proper.
		Ordre Martiniste and Ordre Martiniste S. are largely to be found in French speaking countries, though branches (called 'Chapters') do exist elsewhere, especially the U. the USA and Canada.

	The Illuminati - Crystalinks
		A century later, another, more obscure body of Illuminés came to light in the south of France in 1722, and appears to have lingered till 1794, having affinities with those known contemporaneously in Britain as 'French Prophets', an offshoot of the Camisards.
		A different class were the Rosicrucians, who claimed to originate in 1407, but rose into notice in 1614 when their main text Fama Fraternitatis appeared; a secret society, that claimed to combine the possession of esoteric principles of religion with the mysteries of alchemy.
		Later, the title Illuminati was applied to the French Martinists which had been founded in 1754 by Martinez Pasqualis, and to their imitators the Russian Martinists, headed about 1790 by Professor Schwartz of Moscow; both were occultist cabalists and allegorists, absorbing eclectic ideas from Jakob Boehme and Emanuel Swedenborg.

	Golden Aeon - The Background
		The French Rosicrucian Movement was if anything, the main thrust of Western Occultism, of which the Golden Dawn in England was a footnote.
		Joséphin’s brother Adrien (1815-1890), was one of the first French homeopaths, and had become a Rosicrucian of the order of Firmin Boissin (1835-1893), who was Commander of the Rosicrucian Temple of Toulouse, Prieur of Toulouse and senior of the Council of Fourteen.
		In 1895, Doinel abdicated as Primate of the French Gnostic Church leaving control of the Church to a synod of three of his former bishops, one of whom was Papus.

		These included traditional Voodoo practitioners with French esoteric leanings who were keen to see their system of Haitian magic adapted for an American audience.
		The French occult connection in Haiti derives from two eighteenth-century mystics, Louis Claude de Saint-Martin and Martinez de Pasqually.
		There were Martinist orders in several different regions of France: in Foix, Bordeaux, Paris and Lyons - and by the end of the eighteenth century, also in Haiti.

	Sodalitas Rosae+Crucis & Solis Alati - the currents we work with
		It was early recognized as a valid freemasonic high degree system by the French grand lodge and opened several lodges, but did not spread outside the borders of France.
		The Grand Sanctuary Adriatic (GSA) of MM was founded by Marco Edigio Allegri in 1945, which incorporated martinist and apostolic currents into the rite.
		One should therefore not underestimate the French importance within the hermetic tradition, even if we today often are enticed to believe that the Anglo-Saxon world has been behind everything of importance.

	A Brief History of Martinism
		The very name Martinist conjures images of the mysterious and the unknown adept who has at his (or her) command occult powers and who studies "quaint and curious volumes of forgotten lore." Martinists are known to be theurgists, alchemists, and Grailists.
		The goal is for the Martinist to develop and live a Christian spiritual life and to become an adept in esoteric wisdom and practice, especially in Rosicrucianism.
		Because the Martinist is theurgically empowered by The Initiation and because the Martinist carries the secret wisdom and knowledge of the Adept, it is no surprise that Martinism is considered by Initiates and non-initiates to be the very hub and spoke of esotericism and mystical wisdom.

	Sauniere and Martinism
		This now coalesces some ideas behind his membership of the Martinist order in that Saunière and Boudet were probably not in the least interested in their doctrines or activities but much more likely in information and knowledge which they may have been the custodians of.
		His friends in Masonic circles however plead his case stating that he was a loyal and highly trained officer in the French army and his loss would be a serious blow since good officers were at the time few and far between.
		The logic of their case was heeded and Dagobert was promoted to General and sent to join the eastern Pyrenean army under the command of the Marquis de Chefdebien, the son of the Vicomte who by now was the grand master of the Philadelphes.

		With the occupation of the remainder of France, the persecutions increased.

	The Martinist Legacy and Its Influence on Contemporary Esoteric Churches
		French Masonic lodges, while administratively hierarchical, offered a venue for the nobility and the bourgeoisie to mix as relative equals, an unusual situation in the highly stratified society of the time.
		Another Martinist group avers that initiation is an ìessential component of being a Martinist,î although they do not require the tracing of a memberís initiation back to Saint-Martin himself.
		The position of LíOrdre Martiniste et Synarchique (ìThe Martinist Order and Synarchyî) is that initiation consists of ìthe transmission of a spiritual influence by a word, a breath and the imposition of hands such as the initiator himself had received.

	Ordre Martiniste et Synarchique
		The origin of the Ordre Martiniste et Synarchique is found in the work and teaching of Martinez Pasquales (1727-1774), a French mystic, adept and theurgist.
		Teder had considered that the Ordre Martiniste would survive better if connected with a Masonic Obedience, of which the Ancient and Primitive Rite of Memphis-Misraim was the most esoteric.
		Teder imposed Masonic prerequisites, e.g., a candidate had to be Master Mason (in the 3rd degree) of Memphis-Misraim before being able to receive the First Degree: the 18th degree, before receiving the 2nd degree and the 30th degree of the Rite of Memphis-Misraim to receive the Third Degree of Martinism.

	Notes
		The term "Martinist", referring to a particular type of mystical Masonry, is believed by some to come from Saint-Martin, while others maintain that it is from the converted Sephardi, Don Martinez de Pasqually, who worked with Saint-Martin for a time.
		The main concern of the Martinists was to return man to his initial state "before the fall", using symbolic rites and communion with God.
		It is interesting to note that Novikov, who was obsessed with ferreting out the one true Masonry, did not himself follow what he was told about it: in publishing his series of Masonic journals, as well as late establishing, with his Rosicrucian compatriots, certain groups to disseminate their teachings, he was proselytizing.
