Turning the Templar Key Martyrs,Freemasons & the Cross of Christ [Y82863]

Returning to the unanswered questions of The Hiram Key, best-selling author Robert Lomas, uses newly available information to uncover the roles of Viking Pirate kings, Pretenders to the Crown of Scotland, Custodians of Holy Relics and Political Opportunists to reveal an unexpected story.
His quest takes him back to the beginnings of civilization to reveal a startling legacy of religious symbolism and belief which has its roots in the beginnings of a religion of farming, which he reconstructs using computer simulation to explain the latest archo-genetic findings.
On Saturday 13th Oct 2007 it will be seven hundred years to the day since the Knights Templar were struck down in a secret dawn raid by the King of France. Their assets were seized, their members were arrested and they were accused of heresy.
So began one of the most mysterious and tenacious conspiracy questions of history.

New revised edition with colour illustrations. A guide book that details Masonic Orders Beyond the Craft that are still worked in England and Wales. The Author - "My Masonic readers have overheard those engrossing snippets of conversation that seem to occur so frequently at the festive board of a Craft lodge where reference is made to the ‘Mariners’, ‘the KT’ or ‘the Cryptic’. Enquiry is rewarded with the explanation that they are other degrees, but generally there is little further information forthcoming and one is left with a feeling of awakened, yet ungratified curiosity. This book attempts to produce a condensed, yet comprehensive text of information regarding the various Masonic orders at work in England today."

Building Paradise:The Freemasonic and Rosicrucian Six Days Work. Have you always had the feeling that Freemasonry has a great purpose beyond what is apparent? Are you ready to discover its true purpose? This book is about the work of one of the world's greatest geniuses Sir Francis Bacon great he was skilled in science, law and philosophy, but he was also one of the great Masters of Wisdom -- the Master who was the 'Elijah' or herald of the Aquarian Age that we are now entering in the 21st century. Bacon was the 'Apollo' of the Rosicrucians and the founder and first Grand Master of modern Freemasonry. As you will read in this book, Bacon's mission was to bring us a special Art of Discovery and to train us in this art, too. The idea is that we can also discover all things, all truth, in a beautiful, life-enhancing way -- the way of a true artist, to help manifest a paradise on earth for all people, all creatures, all nature, and all of life itself. It is extraordinary how Bacon left us -- centuries ago -- a particular method by which this may still be accomplished today. This work reveals • What is Bacon's 'Art of Discovery'? And why is it still important today? • Why did Bacon call his work The Six Days' Work? • Are we now entering Bacon's long-awaited 'New Age'? • Are there hidden Masonic themes and symbols hidden in works written over 100 years before the founding of the first Grand Lodge?
