My small understanding of the Illuminati is that this group/bloodline are the 'enlightened ones'. They have control over the world and supress us into a lower state of consciousness.

From what I know, being enlightened means being as close as possible to experiencing the collective consciousness and being at one with oneself and one's brother (ok so it's hard to sum up in 13 words). So surely the Illuminati if they are enlightened would not want to supress us, infact the opposite. Wouldn't they want to share with us the nature of their enlightenent?

Once enlightened, power and the materialistic hold no value... so why would the Illuminati want to control us?

I found a thread similar to this but it doesn't seem to answer my question.

I'm not sure if it will help you, but you could check this out.

What is known to us as the "enlightened ones" is more important than anything else. No gold or material object stands more supreme.

Since Egyptian times we have hidden things from you. The magic mathmatical formulas and other knowledge that can set you free. Therein lies it's importance to us. It would garnish your freedom. That is not what They want.

I am not totally sure of their design or wants... But have been given a glance into their knowledge. That glance is an amazing bit of information.

There is no paradox. No weakness in their designs. Only postponements in their plans.

Absolutely spot on, thanks.

It has pretty much answered all my questions and I'm only on the first post.

I don't know what you're getting at, well I kind of do but I don't like it when people say they know something good that I don't know and they're not going to tell me.

I'm assuming you won't be divulging?

You are most welcome.



I urge you to keep on reading. There is more there than at first meets the eye.

The answers you are looking for can be found, but they have to seek you out. It's not the other way round. Now... Well, I wish I didn't know.

I don't have any Earthshaking preminitions... I was given some info for a smaller subsidiary of the grop you might consider Illuminati.

There are tomes of information that may seem unreal, but have close info to what these movers and shakers are up to.

I'm not going to say I know this and you don't. Simply by design, they might have told me a lie only to see if I'd say anything. It's posibe that I know nothing. But information was given to me. I respect the one who gave it and point to the eons of time. Look at the architects of the Great Pyramids. The Cathedral of Notre Dame. This was the knowledge they hide in action. All in plain sight. The Holy Number. The rules of Zion.

This is the information age. These are not really secrets... But unknown to most.

But I cannot stress enogh that as complete and omnipotent as they are... There is no paradox.

I'm just a small person. I've not been initiated, so what great knowledge could I have?

Why the need to control?
The answer is simple… because of human nature.
The human civilization has reached its current position thanks to laws that control people. Just imagine a world without any rules or laws…..

Now lets just look at a simple example, a democracy is supposed to let say have a more ‘lenient set of laws’ allowing for freedom. Having said that, did you know that the US has more people in prison than both China and Russia Combined?

Humans are no better than animals; we need to be tamed with rules and laws.
The Illuminati are people who have a deep understanding of the human nature and understand the fact that they need to be controlled which many of us will not understand until we are illuminated
