THE RAINBOW SWASTIKA - Scattered Seed Ministries

Naturally, Devi's book is heavily promoted by neo-Nazis such as Canadian Ernst Zundel, as
are her tapes, "for serious students of the occult". Zundel himself follows the time-honored
Nazi obsession with occult and psychic phenomena, particularly UFOs. Another major neo-
Nazi center in New Zealand offers a book catalog which contains as many titles on the occult
as on politics - dealing with runes, Atlantis, Norse religion, magicians, and Hitler-as-god.
The best personal example of neo-Nazi ideology merged with NA thought is David Icke,
former BBC commentator turned Green Party activist and "son of the godhead" guru, whose
seminars are crowded with NAers and neo-Nazis alike. Likewise the British magazine
_Rainbow Ark_ and the Australian periodical _Nexus_, which Icke recommends to his
followers. (For a good overview of Icke, see "From Green Messiah to New Age Nazi", _Left
Green Perspectives_, Jan. 1996.) [Note the quotes by Icke, many of which are almost
verbatim Bailey teachings.] Also worthy of mention is the "New Acropolis", ostensibly a NA
philosophy club to outsiders, but a Fascist group known by insiders to be imitating the Third
Reich.
Reasons for Hitler's failure to usher in the new humanity are given by various NA sources: he
was premature; he did not coordinate with the "Hierarchy" but tried to build a rival power
base [see below for confirmation]; his vision for mankind wasn't global enough; he was
blocked by the "old order". If any of Hitler's NA critics detected any weakness in him toward
the Christianity which they are working to eliminate, they have yet to mention it.
[Here it's appropriate to speculate why prominent New Agers in recent decades have refused
to follow the Baileys (and by implication the spirit guide "DK") in rationalizing the Nazi war
on the Jews. On the contrary, many are hard at work to perpetuate the memory of Nazi
brutality in the Holocaust, even emphasizing their savage treatment of the Jews. There are two
possible explanations: (1) The high-profile NAers are not necessarily high-ranking NAers,
particularly in the entertainment industry - they may be uninformed about the NA doctrines of
human evolution and Jewish karma, and honestly believe that New Age thought could never
sanction Nazi antisemitism. (2) High-ranking NAers, who know the true roots of Nazism, are
promoting the evil of the Nazi-brand Final Solution in order to more effectively contrast the
benevolence of their own Solution - something like the "good cop / bad cop" strategy where
two interrogators pretend to be on opposite sides to manipulate the suspect into trusting the
"good guy" to protect him from the "bad guy". Or call it reverse camouflage: next to pitch
black, gray can look fairly white.]
6. The "Missing" Link: The Thule Society
The same year Hitler had his New Age revelation, Baron Rudolf von Sebottendorf, an avid
fan of Helena Blavatsky, founded the "Thule Society", a spiritist group which borrowed
heavily from HPB's _The Secret Doctrine_. Thule in occultic, Greek and Viking lore was the
capital of an ancient ice-island called Hyperborea (known in Hindu legend as the "White
Isle"), inhabited by superhumans with psychic powers who eventually founded the Aryan
race. After an unexplained disaster, survivors of Hyperborea took refuge first in the "West"
[meaning west of India, perhaps Babylon?], then in the Gobi desert, and later in Tibet; their
spirit mentors retreated to a hidden spiritual center called "Asgard" (variously located in space
or in a subterranean city). [Fans of the TV series "Stargate" will recognize this as the name of
the benevolent alien race which offers hidden knowledge to the SG-1 team in times of need.]
In Scandinavian myth, Asgard was the abode of the gods, connected with earth by a rainbow
bridge. (Angeberts, p.280 note 43) These beings, headed by one known in Hindu/Buddhist
tradition as "the Lama of lamas" or "King of the world", can only be contacted on the spiritual
plane. The symbol of this "Master" is the swastika, "symbol of the central power of the gem
of Heaven". (Angeberts, p.96, quoting J. Marques-Riviere, _In the Shadow of the Tibetan
