THE ORDER OF THE TEMPLE BEYOND THE VEIL/ L' ORDINE DEL TEMPIO, OLTRE IL VELO

by

The Templars and Gnosis

The author examines the life,   the history (also daily), the vicissitudes, continuity and mimicry of the Order of the Temple, as much as in the historical moment in which La Rocca and Bartoli conceived and wrote it. This is unfortunately a sad reality about our days and our lives with the Covid-19, the pandemic.

This book invites the reader to face the destiny with the energy of one cavalier and the determination of one Templar. It deals with a topic that is always fascinating and rich in discovery, such as the relationship between Gnosis and Templarism. After all this romance takes a great news. The author examines the life,   the history (also daily), the vicissitudes, continuity and mimicry of the Order of the Temple, as much as in the historical moment in which La Rocca and Bartoli conceived and wrote it. This is unfortunately a sad reality about our days and our lives with the Covid-19, the pandemic. Faced with this 'dark night' - as Bernardo di Chiaravalle would have put it - it would be easy to fall into gloomy despair or to live from day to day, we should abandon ourselves to ''tenuous thoughts''. Is there an alternative? Yes. Where do we find it? We can find this alternative in this book. It offers the memory of a profound spirituality and a strong and courageous ideal: that which united an ancient religious form - the Gnostic - with the courage, self-denial, sacrifice, sense of community and open-mindedness of the Knights Templar. Today  we are called to live again an existence in which the ideals of strength, clarity, decisiveness, presence, meaning, identity and respect for ourselves and others are the uniform of a humanity that wants to raise its head and courageously face its future.
