有些真理 神圣的真理
启迪着人们的过去 现在 和未来
这些真理必然存在
在每一个世纪里 他们都隐瞒了教义
这个患病的世界需要拯救 因此 行动是我们的第一要务
为让世界变得更好 更明智 我们不是为了自己的利益而行动
这工作值得神圣的精英们为之奋斗

光明会的真实故事
巴伐利亚州
In the south of Germany
坐落在德国南部
lies the state of Bavaria,
它的历史可以追溯到公元6世纪
whose history reaches back to the 6th Century Common Era.
巴伐利亚州遍布美丽的自然风景
The Bavarian landscape is full of lush, beautiful scenery,
起伏的丘陵和坚不可摧的堡垒
rolling hills and impenetrable fortresses.
因戈尔施塔特市
Along the banks of the Danube River
坐落于多瑙河沿岸
is the city of Ingolstadt,
它因为是玛丽·雪莱的小说《弗兰肯斯坦》
well-known for being the setting to
的故事发生地而被人们所熟知
Mary Shelley's novel, "Frankenstein".
同时它也闻名于
Yet, it is also known as the backdrop for
孕育了一个更加黑暗的
a much darker narrative about the world's
也是全世界最具争议的秘密社团
most controversial secret society,
光明会
the Illuminati.
光明会的真实故事并不是一个恐怖故事
The true story of the Illuminati is not a horror story,
也不是意图不轨
nor is it a conspiratorial account of nefarious intentions,
企图奴役人们
set on enslaving humanity,
或制♥造♥世界末日的阴谋故事
or bringing forth the end of days.
这是一个少见的 不加修饰的
This is a rare and unvarnished insight
对光明会的众多未解之谜
into the mysteries of the Order,
与其秘密仪式深入剖析的故事
and their secret rituals,
因为光明会的真实故事与人类密切相关
for the true story of the Illuminati is a very human one.
这是一个关于反叛
It is a story of rebellion,
关于爱
a story of love,
关于巨大损失的故事
and a story of great loss.
光明会是由亚当·魏斯豪普特
The Illuminati was founded in 1776
和他的6个学生
by Adam Weishaupt
于1776年成立的
and six of his pupils.
共济会 光明会研究学者
约瑟夫·韦吉斯
魏斯豪普特创立光明会的宗旨
Weishaupt's main objective for creating the Illuminati
是通过一系列在共济会之后形成的
was to make mankind happy,
具有开创性的信条
by instilling a strict moral regiment
来灌输严格的道德规范
through a series of initiative decrees
从而使人感到幸福
that were patterned after Freemasonry,
来教授道德与美德
to teach morality, virtue,
更重要的是传授如何通过自我实现
and more importantly, self-actualization,
和自我问责来进行自我管理
and self-accountability to govern one's self,
因而使人获得自♥由♥
and thereby making him free.
他创建这个组织来给巴伐利亚
He created this society to bring about,
或者说是整个德国
almost revolutionary change to Bavaria
甚至整个欧洲
and possibly to Germany,
带来几乎是颠覆性的变化
or Europe as a whole.
光明会研究学者
莱因哈特·马克纳
魏斯豪普特的建立秘密组织的想法
Weishaupt got this idea of forming a secret society
是来自于他的一个学生
by one of his students,
这个学生并不是巴伐利亚人
who was not a Bavarian.
而是来自德国中部
He came from Central Germany.
这学生给他看了很多书
He showed him a number of books,
而魏斯豪普特则爱不释手
which Weishaupt then devoured.
那是一些有关共济会
They were Masonic books,
玫瑰十字会 十七世纪初在德国创立的一个秘密组织
以及玫瑰十字会的书
as well as Rosicrucian trots.
魏斯豪普特进一步得出了这一观点
And Weishaupt developed this idea
即他可以通过建立一个秘密组织
that by forming a secret society
启蒙运动是指发生在17-18世纪的一场反封建,反教会的思想文化运动。
来实际加快启蒙运动的步伐
he could actually accelerate the pace of the Enlightenment.
启蒙运动时期
During this time of the Enlightenment though,
也是秘密组织的时代
this is also the Age of the Secret Society,
你如何理解启蒙时期
and how can you think of Age of Enlightenment,
新科学 理性思维和秘密组织呢
New Science, rational thought, and secret societies.
亚当·肯德尔 共济会研究学者
你必须要思考的是启蒙的思想
What you have to think about is the idea of initiation,
追寻已失传的知识
the process of gathering knowledge that has been lost,
亦或只是你未曾了解的知识的过程
or has been unknown to you,
这和启蒙运动本身是同等重要的
was equated with Enlightenment.
整个启蒙运动期间
Now this entire time is,
他们着迷于古代世界
they're fascinated with the ancient world,
新古典主义 等等
Neoclassicism, et cetera...
希腊 罗马 还有埃及
Greece, Rome, and then also Egypt,
因此 重操古人们进行的
and so this idea of ancient mysteries
古神秘仪式的想法再度出现
practiced by the ancients has being revived,
这彻底改变了我们的思想
revolutionizing our thought.
这些秘密组织认为
These secret societies saw themselves
他们是古代神秘仪式的继承者
as inheritors of these ancient mysteries.
1748年 约翰·亚当·魏斯豪普特
In 1748, Johann Adam Weishaupt
魏斯豪普特故居
hhhhhh因戈尔施塔特 巴伐利亚 德国
出生在巴伐利亚的因戈尔施塔特
was born in the Bavarian city of Ingolstadt.
在魏斯豪普特刚5岁时
By the time Weishaupt was only five-years old,
他的父母就去世了
both his Mother and Father would be dead.
然而 就在父母去世后
After the tragic death of his parents however,
他迎来了命运的转机
fate stepped in.
约翰·亚当·冯·伊克斯塔特男爵
魏斯豪普特的教父 冯·伊克施塔特男爵
Weishaupt's Godfather, the Baron von Ickstatt,
成为了他的监护人
took over the care for Weishaupt.
正是冯·伊克施塔特男爵在魏斯豪普特心中
It would be Baron von Ickstatt who would plant the seeds
种下认知禁果的种子
of the forbidden fruit of knowledge in Weishaupt,
在日后结出了累累恶果
which would end up blossoming into
臭名昭著的光明会
the infamous Order of the Illuminati.
冯·伊克施塔特男爵是一个耶稣会机构
The Baron von Ickstatt was the book censor
因戈尔施塔特大学的图书审查员
for Ingolstadt University, a Jesuit institution.
作为一个年轻人
So all of the books you're not supposed to read,
魏斯豪普特读了所有禁书
Adam Weishaupt, you know, as a young man reads all of these books
然后 他开始理解
and he starts to understand that
这些通俗的哲学作品
all these popular philosophical works,
本质上并无害处
these aren't inherently bad,
但是它们鼓吹弱化国家
but what it does is it minimizes the role of the state
弱化教会在社会中的作用
and also the role of the church in society.
最终的结果是
And what ends up happening is that you know,
魏斯豪普特读了这些作品
he reads these pieces,
并和一些学生进行探讨
and he's conversing with some of his students
早在1774年 他就有了组织的想法
and he gets the idea as early as 1774,
在柏林有一份草拟的文件
there's a draft paper that's in Berlin that's called,
名为《人文学校》
"A School For Humanity",
这也可以算是光明会的原型
and it kind of is the little proto-thing for the Illuminati.
他们必须在暗地里活动
It was necessary to do this behind closed-doors because
因为耶稣会在当时被大学奉为正统
the Jesuits had a monopoly on the University's system.
1539年创立的一个天主教团体 是天主教会反对宗教改革和社会进步力量
耶稣会基本上是作为教皇的军队而组建的
The Jesuits were formed essentially as the Pope's army.
它在普通教育系统和大学里
The Jesuits had been very influential in
非常具有影响力
education in general and at the University.
魏斯豪普特当然是站在启蒙运动一方的
Weishaupt was definitely on the side of the Enlightenment,
并且他非常反对耶稣会
and very much opposed to the on-going influence
对因戈尔施塔特大学的持续影响
of the Jesuit Order at the University of Ingolstadt.
因为18世纪的教会
It's because the church during the 18th Century
对自♥由♥思想有着强大的控制
held a huge copyright on free-thought.
在启蒙时代
During the Age of Enlightenment,
这种控制开始瓦解
this started to come apart.
所以 摩擦产生了
And so there's friction.
这是一个对文学作品进行严格审查的时期
This was a period where there was heavy censorship on works.
天主教会拥有大部分土地 著作
The Catholic Church owned most land, knowledge,
甚至 你的灵魂
your soul, even...
所以这个概念
And so this concept,
一个关于秘密和公开的双重概念
a dual-concept of secret, not secret,
就这样产生了
that's where it came into being.
多年来 亚当·魏斯豪普特的思想被引述到
Over the years, Adam Weishaupt's mind
十八世纪启蒙运动鼎盛时期的
opened up to the writings of various philosophers
多位哲学家的著作中
from the 18th Century Enlightenment Era at its zenith.
1768年 20岁的魏斯豪普特
