Dear Friends, 
 
 
In “Isis Unveiled”, after a few pages describing the process by which  the Jesuits  infiltrated secret societies which were dedicated  to esoteric wisdom,  H.P. Blavatsky quotes a  historian with whom she agrees,  on the infiltration of Masonry by the Vatican:
 
 
“ ‘And yet,’ says Rebold, ‘notwithstanding the confusion they had created (1736-72), the Jesuits had accomplished but one of their designs, viz.: denaturalizing and bringing into disrepute the Masonic Institution.  Having succeeded, as they believed, in destroying it in one form, they were determined to use it in another. (...) In this combination Catholicism governed all, and the whole fabrications moved upon wheels, representing the great object for which the Society of Jesus was organized.’ (‘General History of Freemansonry’,   p. 218)” (1) 
 
And two pages later HPB writes: 
 
“The simple truth is that modern Masonry is a sadly different thing from what the once universal secret fraternity was in the days when the Brahma-worshippers of  the AUM exachanged grips and  passwords with the devotees of TUM (...).” (2) 
 
 
Best regards,   Carlos.
