Mysterium Baphometis Revelatum [Magnum Opus]A posthumous publication of the occult researcher Tracy R. Twyman
The essay's first English translation from Latin written by Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall Mysterium Baphometis Revelatum, first published in Vienna 1818; with Introduction and Endnotes by the occult researcher Tracy R. Twyman.
As the anniversary of the October 13, 1307 mass arrest of the Knights Templar in France looms near, American occult researcher, Tracy R. Twyman has announced that she has, for the first time, traced the real origin and meaning of the blasphemous idol that the Templars were accused of worshiping in secret ceremonies: The Baphomet.
Mysterium Baphometis Revelatum is an important Latin text translated that has been frequently referenced but rarely read by researchers on the subject for over 200 years.
In this old text, Mysterium Baphometis Revelatum (The Mystery of Baphomet Revealed) by Baron Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall, the author claimed to have discovered a number of idols and other artifacts on former Templar properties, the imagery of which allegedly sheds light on the heretical secret rites and beliefs of the Templars.
If that interpretation is true, these would seem to have included child sacrifice and Devil worship, along with wild orgies of pederasty and bestiality.
This translation led Tracy to the discovery that two of the artifacts mentioned in Hammer-Purgstall's book (items long thought by some writers to be lost to history) have in fact been sitting unnoticed in the British Museum this entire time... and the rest in the book Baphomet: Secret of the Temple Unveiled."
From the occult author's own words:
"In my opinion, Mysterium Baphometis Revelatum is, in addition to being a study of history, also a piece of history itself, and is history's most important document pertaining to Baphomet, aside from the Templar trial documents themselves... This is because... while the story of Baphomet (as an entity under that name) may have begun with the Templars, it really developed as a concept mostly since Hammer‐Purgstall's time, under his influence, both directly and indirectly.
....
"[F]rom my own experience on this project, I do believe that this text, the images, and indeed the entire subject matter, is cursed. I have had... rankly the worst luck of my life, while studying the subject of Baphomet for the last sixteen years, especially whenever I tried to focus on the Hammer‐Purgstall translation in particular. .. [I] have even have a term we have coined- "the Fog"-for the mental confusion, inertia, and weariness we felt overtake [me] whenever [I] sit down to work on it. ..The curse of Baphomet strikes again!
...
"...I think the curse on Mysterium Baphometis Revelatum was intended to prevent anybody from getting as far as I have with making sense of this particular text, and from publishing it. If you are reading this, then that means the curse has failed, and maybe, with the help of the benevolent deity (however he may be identified), this demon guardian has been destroyed.
So please, carry on, dear seeker, forward and beyond!"
