What spiritual or esoteric practices took place within the
mysterious and often controversial Knights Templar? Whilst little
is known about this aspect of the Order's history, speculation and
wild rumours continue to persist. Having taken the three vows of
poverty, chastity and obedience, the members of the Templar Order
were required to live the life of other monastic orders. However,
their remarkable rise to a successful elite community - followed by
the insidious machinations and slander that led to their
spectacular fall and destruction - suggests that they were involved
in something more significant than straightforward medieval
religious practices. There have been many theories as to whether
their 'secret' involved material wealth and special treasure. But
could it have been connected to a science of initiation - the
knowledge, experience and understanding of spiritual dimensions
that can enlighten the pupil on an esoteric path? In The Templar
Spirit Margaret Jonas penetrates these questions, examining some of
the various claims and revealing something of the esoteric
practices and beliefs of the Order, including influences from other
religious traditions. She presents her own research into the
meaning of the mysterious 'head' that the Templars were accused of
worshipping, and examines the historical figures that lent their
wisdom and guidance to the founding of the Order.
