Out of curiosity, has JKR ever stated that she is basing her books on
these teachings? I thought I read somewhere that she'd addressed
the question of whether she based the books on any sort of religious
teaching or wrote deliberate correlations between particular religious
teachings/writings and HP plot/characters (and I recall her answer
being "No."). But I could easily be wrong.
Hans:
Naturally that is a most interesting and obvious question! The simple answer
is that as far as I know her only word is that she "won't comment on the
religious content of the books until the whole series is finished."
I have sent Jo my Open Letter and my Essay and she has not reacted in any
way. I'm pretty sure she knows about my thoughts and I suspect she's a
member of my group (and this one, probably). The fact that she doesn't react
is probably the most certain way of knowing I'm on the right track.
Obviously she couldn't publicly admit I'm right as that would have the most
overwhelming consequences. Even a person with the imagination of a slug
could comprehend what it would mean to the world if Jo said, 'Harry Potter
is a new version of "The Alchemical Wedding of Christian Rosycross"'. The
managers of Bloomsbury, Scholastic and Warner Bros. would probably have
simultaneous heart attacks.
In fact the Richard Abanes people have also discovered the similarity
between Harry Potter and "The Alchemical Wedding". Have a look at this:
http://www.cuttingedge.org/news/n1486.cfm People like me are called "Satan
worshippers" there. Thanks a lot. Don't read it unless you have a strong
stomach. Besides that they're not too good on their facts. Fortunately not
too many people take them seriously.
The next point is that if Jo said publicly that she didn't base her books on
"The Alchemical Wedding" or "The Coming New Man", which contains all the
explanations of the symbolism of Sirius and the Chamber of Secrets, and a
few other books I've mentioned in my essay, she would be quite right. Jo has
told us quite frankly and openly that she had an inspiration in June 1990
and that everything developed from there. What she hasn't told us, I
believe, is that her inspiration was NOT a once only event. In my humble
opinion she continues to draw from the well of her inspiration, and if she
didn't initially realise what the source is, I'm sure she does now. The use
of the symbols is so absolutely precisely that of the teachings of
Liberating Alchemy that it just isn't possible for it to be otherwise.
However she needn't necessarily have read those books! I think she was
inspired by those I call the Masters of Compassion, and I think "The
Alchemical Wedding" and "The Coming New Man" were inspired by the same
people. I believe they also inspired the people who built the Great Pyramid
of Cheops, and as you probably all know, this pyramid contains the
prediction that the world would change in SEPTEMBER 2001. Yes, it got it
right to the very month! I believe that Harry Potter is part of the world
events around 9/11 and that Jo knows this and is actively helping the people
who inspired her. As you will know from previous posts I also believe the
Masters of Compassion inspired the Bible and many other holy scriptures
through the millennia.
I doubt that Jo will ever talk about any of this. I think she'll be silent
about it to the grave. However I can assure you that if she swore on her
mother's grave, and had it witnessed by the Queen, the Pope and Harry Potter
that what I'm saying isn't true, I wouldn't believe it. The evidence is too
strong, as I hope to be able to prove in my series.
Many thanks for your question!
Hans
