The Secrets of Manly Palmer Hall

A 27 year old wrote the most dangerous book in America.

It contained the secrets of every mystery tradition on Earth.

He was not a member of any of them.

His name was Manly Palmer Hall, born in Peterborough, Ontario, in 1901.

No university degree.

No academic credentials of any kind. He had simply read everything.

Freemasonry. Rosicrucianism. Kabbalah. Hermeticism. The Egyptian Mysteries.

Pythagorean Mathematics. Alchemy.

Over 50 traditions.

One book. The book was the size of an atlas. It weighed 7 pounds.

His central thesis was devastating.

Every mystery school on Earth teaches the same teaching,

deliberately hidden inside each culture's mythology and symbolism.

He demonstrated that Masonic ritual encodes Hermetic philosophy.

He was not a Mason when he wrote it. In 1928, he published it.

550 hand numbered copies. Franklin Roosevelt had a copy. Elvis Presley had a copy.

The book has never gone out of print for nearly 100 years.

The Freemasons made him a 33rd degree Mason.

After the book, he had not gone through the degrees. He had not been initiated.

They recognized that an outsider had

understood their own tradition better than they could explain it themselves.

He gave over 8 000 lectures in his lifetime.

He founded the Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles.

A temple for every tradition.

His life's work was a single proof.

The Hermetic teaching runs through all of them. As above, so below. The same words.

In every language. In every century.

In 1990, Manly Hall died under mysterious circumstances.

The questions remain open.

A man with no credentials decoded the secret architecture of civilization.

The book is still in print,

and you were never taught his name.
