Official Clarification from Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Inc. (Florida Corporation)

Several persistent rumors have been going around the usenet require
clarification. First of all, I would like to make clear that I have
never had any contact with the mafia whatsoever. Secondly, it is not
true that my ex-wife Eva’s Uncle Sal "barely tolerated" me. Sal loved
me like a son and got all torn up when Eva and got divorced."
And one more thing…I’ve something to say to the punk who made the
site at:
http://doncicero.aussie7.com/
"David Griffin, you little pipsqueak, don’t forget, you have a family
and I know where you live. No one would want to see anybody get hurt."

    The aforereferenced site has been misattributed to David Griffin who is
    not its author. Misattribution of statements, sites, etc. have become
    quite commonplace in the ongoing defamation campaign against him and
    the Rosicrucian Order of  A+O. This post is obviously designed to
    elicit sympathy Mr. Cicero’s to assist him with fund raising for his
    faltering frivolous law suit against the A+O.
    The referenced post is but the latest in an ongoing defamation campaign
    being waged against the Rosicrucian Order of AO and its Chief Adept,
    Mr. David Griffin. This defamation campaign has been conclusively
    linked to Mr. Robert Zink, lisenced by Chic Cicero, by the publication
    of statements made by Mr. Zink on the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn
    web site and public Yahoo forum. A brief resume of a small selection of
    the evidence linking Mr. Zink, licensed by Mr. Cicero to the ongoing
    defamation campaign follows below, with URL links for easy
    authentication of his authorship of statements attributed to him.

    Why is this defamation waged against Mr. Griffin and the A+O? David
    Griffin is the owner of the European and Canadian Hermetic Order of the
    Golden Dawn trademark and co-owner of the HOGD trademark in the USA by
    contractual agreement, and the leader of the Hermetic Order of the
    Golden Dawn, the Outer Order of the Rosicrucian Order of A+O. Attacks
    broke out against Mr. Griffin following his having received
    documents regarding the teachings of the Grades beyond the Second Order
    for which the RR+AC must prepare the Adept. This permitted Mr. Griffin
    to reform of the A+O’s Second Order (RR+AC) so that it correctly
    prepares the Adept for higher teachings beyond the Grade of 7=4, and
    supplementing materials which had been revealed by Crowley and
    published by Regardie with materials from earlier Rosicrucian sources
    under the guidance of a physical, ancient, and secret, European
    alchemical order.

    A number of American orders using only materials published by Regardie
    felt clearly threatened by the A+O’s successful reformation of the
    RR+AC, integrating substantial magical and alchemical materials from
    earlier, Rosicrucian sources under the guidance and tutelage of an
    extremely secretive and ancient, continental European alchemical order.
    This was necessary due to the publication of the formerly secret,
    magical teachings of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn by Aleister
    Crowey and Israel Regardie. Several esoteric orders which teach little
    more than these well known and published materials, obviously felt
    threatened by Mr. Griffin’s accomplishment, particularly Chic Cicero of
    the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Inc. In response, Mr. Cicero
    formed an alliance against the Rosicrucian Order of A+O by licensing
    several groups to use the HOGD trademark, including groups which
    practice dubious forms of astral or self-initiation, mix the published
    teachings of the HOGD with Taoism and Aleister Crowley’s Thelema, and
    in the case of EOGD whose leader is of questionable moral character

    In a further attack on the Rosicrucian Order of A+O, Mr. Cicero
    recently filed a frivolous lawsuit against the A+O in US Federal Court,
    in a attempt to deprive the A+O of its legitimate trademark rights to
    the name of its outer order, the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in
    the USA, despite Mr. Cicero’s decade old, contractual obligations with
    the A+O in this regard. Mr. Cicero recently suffered severe legal
    setbacks in this litigation, thus spawning intensified defamation
    attacks against both the A+O and its Chief Adept, David Griffin, on the
    internet. It is only in the light of these events that one can better
    understand the orchestrated internet defamation campaign promoted by
    Cicero lisencee, Robert Zink.

    Below follows a synopsis of a part of the evidence linking Robert Zink,
    sponsored by Chic Cicero, to the ongoing defamation campaign against
    David Griffin and the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (A+O). These
    are not fabricated statements. URL links are included so that Mr.
    Zink’s authorship, under his well known aliases as as Zanoni49 and
    Frater PDR, may be easily verified:

    In response to having been linked to the ongoing defamation campaign
    against Mr. Griffin and the A+O, Mr. Zink recently published
    a disingenuous appeal to end what he called the "nasty flame wars,"
    stating at:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16986
    "The Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn is against any internet flame
    wars and or propaganda websites….We want these nasty flame wars to
    end and encourage all our members who may or may not have participated
    in such negative posting to cease."
    This sounds much like the deceptive official statement that
    Chic Cicero, sponsor of Robert Zink, makes on his Hermetic Order of the
    Golden Dawn, Inc. web site:
    http://www.hermeticgoldendawn.org/trademark.htm
    "We are opposed to the deliberate harassing of authors, groups,
    fraternities, etc."
    "We are opposed to… internet slander or abuse, or other manipulative
    tactics."
    Despite these misleading disavowals, the legal harassment by Chic
    Cicero and the defamation campaign linked to Robert Zink continue until
    today!

    Having once been exposed and his credibility in jeopardy, Robert Zink
    recently issued a second deceitful statement, swearing:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/17009
    "I stand before each and every one of you and can say completely
    and honestly that I have never posted a flame post, negative website
    or used an anonymous -mailer. I call upon those who make
    blind accusations against me or the order that I serve, to provide
    hard, cold concrete evidence that I have participated in these
    internet flame wars. Whatever I say, I say as myself (Frater PDR) or my
    handle Zanoni49."

    Here is some of this evidence:

    On the one hand, Robert Zink declares:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/17009
    "I don’t need to agree with everything Mr. Cicero or Mr.Griffin, Mr.
    Webster or anyone else in order for me to call them
    brother."
    and swears:
    "I have never posted a flame post, negative website or used an
    anonymous -mailer."

    On the other hand, Mr. Zink previously published the following
    statements in his official capacity as the moderator of the Esoteric
    Order of the Golden Dawn Yahoo forum:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16581
    "Griffen is a bully. He wants it all and will create enemies to unite
    his factions."
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16929
    "Mr. Griffin is alledged to have once said "If I cannont own it all, I
    will destroy it."
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16929
    "David Griffin and the Authentic Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn have
    done nothing but tried to control, threaten and
    deprive everyone else of their right to be themselves."

    When an inflammatory web site recently appeared on the internet
    defaming Chic Cicero, Mr. Zink, completely without evidence, attacked
    Mr. Griffin as follows on the official EOGD forum:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16815
    "Next, we see a hate site re-appear on alt. Magick…directed at Chic
    Cicero… But who would put up such as site…Well, it would need to be
    someone threatened by Chic’s lawsuit against David Griffin. Why else?
    They don’t want to see the
    community come together, because if we do, as a GD community, then the
    Griffen/Highlander theory would be null. (There can only be ONE)."

    In a deceptive attempt to distance himself after having been linked the
    defamation campaign, Mr. Zink recently recently wrote:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16986
    "I see no evidence to believe that Mr. Griffin is involved
    with anything that is Nazi. This is pure propaganda and I reject it and
    ask you to do the same."

    Yet this is the same Robert Zink who disingenuously once wrote, again
    as Chief of the EOGD:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16857
    "This association with Nazism imaginary or real on the part of
    David Grifin may explain on a deeper level why he so much wants to
    cotrol the Golden Dawn, and why it may have been necessary for Chic
    Cicero who is the legal owner of the US trademark to file a lawsuit
    against Mr. Griffin. Control was a big part of Hitlers mentality."

    Robert Zink now admits that this latter statement was nothing more than
    "pure propaganda." Obviously, Mr. Zink has lost most credibility by
    making such wild and contradictory statements.

    Mr. Zink also recently wrote:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16986
    "I do not accept that anyone including Mr. Griffin who is doing the
    Great Work would even for a moment be part of any such Nazi
    movement. This is pure propaganda and I reject it and ask you to do the
    same.

    Yet this is the same Robert Zink, who wrote just months ago in an
    official capacity.
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16723
    "Well, there has been a great deal of confusion about the connection if
    any with the Golden Dawn and Nazism…. several people have aired
    concern that the Golden dawn has a Nazi basis, it does not, or should I
    say the Esoteric
    Order of the Golden Dawn is anti-nazi."

    Recently, Mr. Zink further wrote:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/16986
    "In the last year or so there have been several websites
    proclaiming that Mr. Griffin is a Nazi. I do not condone these
    websites."
    and:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/golden-dawn-forum/message/17009
    I stand before each and every one of you and can say completely
    and honestly that I have never posted a… negative website.

    Yet this is the same Robert Zink proven to have, advertised, promote
    and propagated just such a web site!
    Robert Zink, in his capacity as Chief, wrote on the official Esoteric
    Order of the Golden Dawn blog:
    http://golden-dawn.blogspot.com/2005_02_12_golden-dawn_archive.html

    Synopsis:  Someone has posted as David Griffin, clearly not David
    Griffin, and has very wittily ripped him to shreds.

    In respose, David Griffin, or his pipsqueak (if he has one) has
    immitated this by posting as Chic Cicero.

    However, this immitation was a very sad one.  It was neither witty, not
    did it rip anyone to pieces.

    You know, you’d really be better off going for the "look at me the poor
    little lamb being attacked" angle, ’cause you’re attacks are either
    ineffective, too long-winded to read, or both.

    Oh and by the way, GDTruthSee, you’ve already posted this.

    If I recall correctly, David Griffin himself came out and publicly
    reprimanded you for discriminating against his tan-pants black-boots
    red-arm-band fashion and political affiliation.  One day, GDTruthSee,
    you will learn to accept your leader for what he is, and what he
    chooses to be.  All paths lead to the same light, right?

    Hey, BTD.

    Ok, so here’s what I was thinking:
    You are mostly correct. Mostly corect in that our mundane tasks require
    Will. Shoot, even magical tasks require Will.
    The direct outcome of our Will-based tasks is our perception of our
    realities.
    Will and perception almost go hand in hand. We can direct our Will to
    achieve certain ends, either on the mundane or the magical. But what do we
    do with these ends once we have achieved or attained them?
    It is our perception of our Will-influenced events that allows us to
    understand the choices we make and see where it leads us.
    If we cannot perceive the events that transpire from humans utilizing
    theirWill, what would be the point of it?

    Are you differentiating between will and Will?  If so, what is the
    difference?

    When we "direct our Will" are we imposing our will upon our Will?  Shouldn’t
    it be the other way around?

    we can direct our will but not our Will. Our will does not direct ur Will,
    but is willed instead by our Will. Hence it is our Will that does the
    directing.

    More or less.

    That’s sort of how I see it, too.  I think it’s not accurate to say we
    "direct our Will".  It’s like the tail wagging the dog.

    The trick is to undertstand enough of what’s going on to be able to perceive
    the flow of the Will and position oneself such that one flows with it.  What
    we want may have little or nothing to do with what we Will.

    Will is in many ways analogous to Tao.

    BTD: Well it’s like this. Either you believe in Free Will or you’re a
    Calvinist. Now arguably all of this pseudo-religious Enochian bosh and
    Goetia with these detailed sigil lie things depicting some simple minded
    sort of unfolding of reality is Calvinist and might even have been invented
    like Christianity to support divine monrachy with the former similarly to
    Calvinism like saying that G_d is or must be a Republican.

    But you create a thing in your mind and exercise YOUR will to bring it into
    manifestation if that’s what you want to do. Nothing or no one can compel
    you to. Your creation may stay in your mind or you can forget about it
    altogether. However, you might create a carved image in your head and will
    it into manifestation – i.e., you will yourself to pick up a knife, pick up
    a piece of wood and then you carve the thing. In doing so you direct your
    will through your tool unto that piece of wood and  thus render it into a
    new creation that did not previously exist.

    No one else did it but you

    Now in terms of Magic/k there’s no difference except that your tools are
    slightly different and the material might be different but essentially
    you’re doing the same thing.

    Yes dear, I accept you neither understand the facts presented nor appreciate
    the humour in the words. Never mind, we all have to work with what we have.
    In the
    meantime, may I suggest you experiment with a killfile so that you dont have
    to bother with responding and I dont have to suffer the tedium of reading
    your illiterate responses?

    Have a nice day.

    This shows very clearly that you dont understand a thing about will, Will or
    mind. Back to your books I fear. Come back when you understand more.

    Indeed not. When we direct our Will we deceive ourselves. Our Will is the
    highest manifestation of purpose and therefore cannot be directed at all.
