Theosophical Masonry was formed by the Illuminati a long time ago :
Duke of Brunswick, Grand Master of German Freemasonry, 1794
Here is a major lodge-head who was not happy about things in his club.
Any order run by someone (or something) else is clearly a dis-order, can we agree? It is an un-order, a non-order, someone-else's-order, and definitely not your orderly order. Not something you can proudly show to your kids, much less to your fellow lodge people. In three letters, the Duke of Brunswick was saying WTF. Here is what he said:
In 1794 the Duke of Brunswick, the Grand Master of German Freemasonry wrote a letter to his brethren recommending the dissolution of the entire organization, due to the fact that it had been infiltrated and was being manipulated by unseen hands. Do not miss his last phrase.
"I have been convinced that we, as an Order, have come under the power of some very evil occult Order, profoundly versed in science, both occult and otherwise, though not infallible, their methods being black magic, that is to say, electromagnetic power, hypnotism, and powerful suggestion. We are convinced that the Order is being controlled by some Sun Order, after the nature of the Illuminati, if not by that Order itself. We see our edifice ... crumbling and covering the ground with ruins, we see the destruction that our hands no longer arrest ... a great sect arose, which taking for its motto the good and the happiness of man, worked in the darkness of the conspiracy to make the happiness of humanity a prey for itself.
This sect is known to everyone, its brothers are known no less than its name. It is they who have undermined the foundations of the Order to the point of complete overthrow; it is by them that all humanity has been poisoned and led astray for several generations ... They began by casting odium on religion ... Their masters had nothing less in view than the thrones of the earth, and the governments of the nations was to be directed by their nocturnal clubs ... the misuse of our order ... has produced all the political and moral troubles with which the world is filled today ... we must from this moment dissolve the whole Order"
So the Duke, as he wanted to be called, essentially confirms that Freemasonry was successfully infiltrated and has been taken over since at least the Council of Wilhelmsbad, Germany, in 1780. An understanding was finally reached between the Masons and the Illuminati, and on December 20, 1781, a combined Order was proposed which would add to the Illuminati organization the first three degrees of Masonry. It wasn't until the Congress of Wilhelmsbad from July 16th to August 29th, 1781 (which was attended by Masons, Martinistes, and representatives from other secret organizations from Europe, America and Asia) that the alliance was official. Those at the meeting were put under oath not to reveal anything. Comte de Virieu, a Mason from the Martiniste lodge at Lyons, upon his return home when questioned about the Congress said:
"I will not confide [the details] to you. I can only tell you that all this is very much more serious than you think. The conspiracy which is being woven is so well thought out, that it will be, so to speak, impossible for the Monarchy and the Church to escape it."
He later denounced the Illuminati and became a devout Catholic.
