this
is connected to Blavatsky and the Theosophical Movement? One of the
founders of the Knights Templar was a cousin to Bernard of
Clairvaux.
But Bernard is the one who sanctioned it and brought it before the
Pope. With his backing it became a powerful force in Europe and
France. One of his greatest, or their greatest contributions is that
of architecture in general, the cathedrals in particular.
What is the connection you ask? I have traced St. Bernard directly
to
the life of William Q. Judge. And we all know that he was of utmost
importance in American Theosophy.
