The Secret Society of the Nine Unknown Men

The Nine Unknown Men

According to occult lore, the Nine Unknown Men are a two millennia-old secret society founded by the Indian Emperor Asoka 273 BC. The legend of The Nine Unknown Men goes back to the time of the Emperor Asoka, who was the grandson of Chandragupta. Ambitious like his ancestor whose achievements he was anxious to complete, he conquered the region of Kalinga which lay between what is now Calcutta and Madras. The Kalingans resisted and lost 100,000 men in the battle. At the sight of this massacre Asoka was overcome and resolved to follow the path of non-violence.

He converted to Buddhism after the massacre, the Emperor founded the society of the Nine to preserve and develop knowledge that would be dangerous to humanity if it fell into the wrong hands. It is said that the Emperor Asoka once aware of the horrors of war, wished to forbid men ever to put their intelligence to evil uses. During his reign natural science, past and present, was vowed to secrecy. Henceforward, and for the next 2,000 years, all researches, ranging from the structure of matter to the techniques employed in collective psychology, were to be hidden behind the mystical mask of a people commonly believed to be exclusively concerned with ecstasy and supernatural phenomena. Asoka founded the most powerful secret society on earth: that of the Nine Unknown Men.

One can imagine the extraordinary importance of secret knowledge in the hands of nine men benefiting directly from experiments, studies and documents accumulated over a period of more than 2,000 years. What can have been the aim of these men? Not to allow methods of destruction to fall into the hands of unqualified persons and to pursue knowledge which would benefit mankind. Their numbers would be renewed by co-option, so as to preserve the secrecy of techniques handed down from ancient times.

I've heard this story before but it still intrigues me.

"The Nine" mythos also has other origins.

Amazing story, you have made an obsession for me now... However, where are they now? We need them more than ever these days.

On the face of it, with the advent of the atomic bomb, one might conclude the nine men have failed in their mission.

Are they immortals or is the name just symbolic of a secret order of a perennial nature, like Freemasonry?

Probably eliminated by the TPTB since their knowledge are a threat to them.

That's a different nine group that comes from the 20th century occult channeling and ET phenomenon

The people in power who need to know who they are know who they are. I knew a woman once, a very psychic woman with lots of experiences (many of which I was there for as a duo), who claimed she was visited by two of the nine, and when she first saw them when she opened the door they looked like large lizards and then changed back to human. This was many years before I heard anything else about either the nine or the lizard theories, and many years before David Icke was going down that road or any road except sports announcing.

"Theosophists also believe the Nine to be a real organization that is working for the good of the world."

By the way the World is turning this group obviously has no power or is in on it.

What makes you think you haven't heard from them? Perhaps even ordered a meal from one?

At some point the student must walk without a handhold.

They are reportedly dedicated to preventing us from going extinct, lending a helping hand here and there, and staying anonymous. Spread of technology certainly isn't the issue i believe ... Maybe there is a war going on .... We can certainly see the TPTB being exposed . Hey......for once lets hope on there existing a good secret society


@starwarsisreal I very much Doubt so , after i read this article i am seeing some links and theories in my head when it comes to propaganda and psychological warfare(less of warfare) ...though ill need more time to really put it across...

The Nine Unknown Men

According to occult lore, the Nine Unknown Men are a two millennia-old secret society founded by the Indian Emperor Asoka 273 BC. The legend of The Nine Unknown Men goes back to the time of the Emperor Asoka, who was the grandson of Chandragupta.

The Kalingans resisted and lost 100,000 men in the battle. At the sight of this massacre Asoka was overcome and resolved to follow the path of non-violence.

He converted to Buddhism after the massacre, the Emperor founded the society of the Nine to preserve and develop knowledge that would be dangerous to humanity if it fell into the wrong hands. It is said that the Emperor Asoka once aware of the horrors of war, wished to forbid men ever to put their intelligence to evil uses. During his reign natural science, past and present, was vowed to secrecy. Henceforward, and for the next 2,000 years, all researches, ranging from the structure of matter to the techniques employed in collective psychology, were to be hidden behind the mystical mask of a people commonly believed to be exclusively concerned with ecstasy and supernatural phenomena. Asoka founded the most powerful secret society on earth: that of the Nine Unknown Men.

One can imagine the extraordinary importance of secret knowledge in the hands of nine men benefiting directly from experiments, studies and documents accumulated over a period of more than 2,000 years. What can have been the aim of these men? Not to allow methods of destruction to fall into the hands of unqualified persons and to pursue knowledge which would benefit mankind. Their numbers would be renewed by co-option, so as to preserve the secrecy of techniques handed down from ancient times.

Each of the Nine is supposedly responsible for guarding and improving a single book. These books each deal with a different branch of potentially hazardous knowledge. Traditionally, the books are said to cover the following subjects:

The Nine Books
Propaganda and Psychological warfare is a concerted set of messages aimed at influencing the opinions or behavior of large numbers of people. Instead of impartially providing information, propaganda in its most basic sense presents information in order to influence its audience. It is the most dangerous of all sciences, as it is capable of moulding mass opinion. It would enable anyone to govern the whole world.

Physiology is the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of living organisms. The book of The Nine included instructions on how to perform the "touch of death (death being caused by a reversal of the nerve-impulse)." One account has Judo being a product of material leaked from this book.

Microbiology, and, according to more recent speculation, Biotechnology. In some versions of the myth, the waters of the Ganges are purified with special microbes designed by the Nine and released into the river at a secret base in the Himalayas. Multitudes of pilgrims, suffering from the most appalling diseases, bathe in them without harming the healthy ones. The sacred waters purify everything. Their strange properties
have been attributed to the fact that they contain bacteriophages. But why should these not be formed in the Bramaputra, the Amazon or the Seine?

Alchemy, including the transmutation of metals. In India, there is a persistent rumor that during times of drought or other natural disasters temples and religious organizations receive large quantities of gold from an unknown source. The mystery is further deepened with the fact that the sheer quantity of gold throughout the country in temples and with kings cannot be properly accounted for, seeing that India has few gold mines.

Communication, including communication with extraterrestrials.
Gravitation. Book 6 The Vaiminaka sastra is said to contain the instructions necessary to build a Vimana, sometimes referred to as the "ancient UFOs of India."

Cosmology, the capacity to travel at enormous speeds through spacetime fabric, and time-travel; including intra- and inter-universal trips.

Light, the capacity to increase and decrease the speed of light, to use it as a weapon by concentrating it in a certain direction etc.

Sociology, including rules concerning the evolution of societies and how to predict their downfall.
Suspected Members

Numerous figures who straddled the line between occultism and science fiction writing, most prominently (and apparently first) Louis Jacolliot, Talbot Mundy, and later Louis Pauwels and Jacques Bergier in their Morning of the Magicians, propagated the story of the Nine claiming that the society occasionally revealed itself to wise outsiders such as Pope Sylvester II who was said to have received, among other things, training in supernatural powers and a robotic talking head from the group. In more recent times, according to this circle, the Nine assisted humanity by revealing the secret of the Cholera vaccine.

Among conspiracy theorists the Nine Unknown is often cited as one of the oldest and most powerful secret societies in the world. Unusually for the conspiracy subculture, the image of the group is largely though not entirely benign. Theosophists also believe the Nine to be a real organization that is working for the good of the world.

Some modern Indian scientists such as Jagdish Chandra Bose, a pioneer in Radio and Microwave Optics and Vikram Sarabhai, the man behind the Indian space and missile defense programs, were said to believe in or even to be members of the Nine although documentation on this issue is predictably scant. Believers in the Nine also point to the mysterious Delhi iron pillar, which is said to have been constructed at a time before the technology.

Indian scientists are occasionally rumored to be members of the Nine Unknown Men, and from time to time, if a Westerner should visit India and then do something astounding, he is considered to have had their help (as was the case with Pope Sylvester II, and also Alexandre Emile John Yersin, who knew Louis Pasteur and Pierre Paul Emile Roux, who respectively created vaccines for Rabbies and Dyphtheria).

If their goal was to protect this world, why's it so #ed up?

Because there are plenty of people who want f**k it up ? or there is a war going on b/w secret societies or maybe these people only bother about certain part of the world ?

I read some were (can't remember exactly) that Hitler got his hands on one of these books.

Could someone verify?

Would explain his interest in the occult, not to mention the German's advanced technology

reply to post by maddy21


Sounds interesting.

I will read this later.

Thanks

peace.

If there is indeed a war between secret societies for the future destiny of the world, then surely it would be a 'most secret war' - or should that be an 'above top secret' war...?

My guess is that there is such a war going on, and the participants are very careful about who they invite to pick a side.

FITO.

Hitler did send folks all over the world including Tibet to trace the Aryan ancestry...there is a roumer he found something there

reply to post by FlyInTheOintment


or the war is very subtle , it probably in the open but the real perpetrators and the real intentions in the grand scale are kept secret .. i doubt the secret society of nine unknown men is just 9 dudes , they probably have an entire organization , people at important places ... Either they are immortal by some advanced technology or they have entered such a state of consciousness they they can decide when they die (certain Gurus have been known to do that) ...


There are actually a couple of people right now in India( am only accustomed to politics of India properly there may be in other countries) who have disappeared and then re appeared to either do great things or show case something to the world .. i cannot say they positively relate to this society but, it is suspicious

Is there anywhere we can download these 9 esoteric books considering our media and government utilise propaganda and psychological warfare on we the people on a daily basis?

My point is that the 9 are not exactly hiding these topics very well! In fact they seem to be advancing their agendas exponentially.
