Veda and the Upanishads mention the brahmanical communities munis and vrâtyas; in
second place, that in the Age of Buddha, historic personage of the VII century B.C., already
existed the groups that would be formed in Sanghas.
But this is not about if the Benedictines were Buddhist or if they had something in
common with the Buddhism Priests, as the Benedictines Priests, obeyed to the White
Fraternity in secrecy, real Occult Force of the Monasticism «Oriental» and «Occidental». The
White Fraternity, in fact, were the authors of a work entitled «Rules of the Masters of
Wisdom», of universal diffusion and that in Occident was known since the II century as
«Regula Magistri Sapientiae» by many Christian sects and also for gnostic Jews. Thus,
nothing original would be in the occidental monasticism which would answer, on the contrary,
to the most orthodox dispositions that the White Fraternity rules on the matter.
In the first centuries of the Christian Age when the Roman Empire admitted «Paganism»
and maintained contact with the populations of Asia, was perfectly known the existence of the
monkish oriental life; even some illustrious men as Apollonius of Tyana, contemporary of
Jesus, had travelled to the Tibet and received instruction in their monasteries. Some gnostic
sects, that reached to comprehend and to oppose the plans of the White Fraternity, have left
testimony that it was known in the main cities of Middle East: Alexandria, Jerusalem,
Antioquia, Caesarea, Ephesus, etc. But the institution of the monasteries is not established
from one day to another: it is necessary to follow a strict formation process, a method which is
known since the age of the Atlantis and the Priests of the Cultural have used universally; the
Buddhist priests, previous deformation of the Kshatriya Siddhartha, created the monasticism
Buddhist-Tibetan, Chinese, Indian and Japanese. This method determines what must start
from a phase of social anarchic-mysticism, characterized by the proliferation of illuminated,
hermits, and Saints: this stage has as objective to promote the belief that the future monkish
institution is spontaneous product of the people. In this form the populations would accept
naturally the existence and the work of the monasteries, and, the most important, will be also
accepted by the Kings and governors. And this infallible method is applicable in any population
and with the assistance of any religion.
In the mark of Judeochristianity, in the I century is already started the application of
the method and emerges in the Middle East multitude of ascetics and Saints who retire to the
deserts and mountains to live in solitude. During the II and III centuries grows so much the
population of anchorites that many decided to join under the command of a superior Saint and
the order of some rule: are constituted then the communities of cenobites; nevertheless, the
community of the cenobites didn't reach yet the union grade required for the monastic way of
life due to every member continued with the eremite life and are only gathered to pray and
feed. And with the anchorites and cenobites, roam everywhere the «wandering friars»,
occidental version of the «oriental mendicant monks». In the V century, the colonies of
anchorites and cenobites, counted thousands and thousands of members in Egypt, Palestine
and Middle East: in just one diocese of Egypt, Oxyrhynchus, lived twenty thousands of female
eremites and one hundred anchorite hermits, while in life of Saint Pachomius existed seven
thousands cenobite monks in their monasteries, that reaches to fifty thousand in the V
century. With this I want to exemplify, Dr. Siegnagel, the magnitude of the pre-monastic, an
already knew movement was the one of Far East inspiration.
