The Birth Place Of The Illuminati

More than 200 years after the Illuminati was founded to oppose religious influence over daily life, it has become one of the world’s greatest conspiracy theories.

I have heard there are some meetings here, but where and when, I have no idea,” Sister Anna told me, taking some time to open up on the subject. “I think they come from France, England, all over, but Ingolstadt is the meeting place in Europe.”

Working in the church bookshop opposite Ingolstadt’s colossal Gothic Liebfrauenmünster church, Sister Anna sees, and speaks to, a lot of people. But some remain shrouded in mystery to her: Illuminati pilgrims, who she believes may still carry out secret meetings in the Bavarian city.

The idea that clandestine Illuminati gatherings could be taking place in the small Bavarian city may seem far-fetched, but Ingolstadt does have a history of them. The city is the birthplace of the infamous secret society that has become part myth, part historical truth, and the foundation of countless conspiracy theories.

It was on 1 May 1776 that Adam Weishaupt, a professor of law at the University of Ingolstadt, founded the Order of the Illuminati, a secret organisation formed to oppose religious influence on society and the abuse of power by the state by fostering a safe space for critique, debate and free speech. Inspired by the Freemasons and French Enlightenment philosophers, Weishaupt believed that society should no longer be dictated by religious virtues; instead he wanted to create a state of liberty and moral equality where knowledge was not restricted by religious prejudices. However religious and political conservatism ruled in Ingolstadt at that time, and subject matter taught at the Jesuit-controlled university where Weishaupt lectured was strictly monitored.

After initially handpicking his five most talented law students to join, the network rapidly expanded, its members disseminating Weishaupt’s goals of enlightenment with radical teachings, while at the same time creating an elaborate network of informants who reported on the behaviour of state and religious figures in an effort to build up a wealth of information that the Illuminati could potentially exploit in their teachings. With the help of prominent German diplomat Baron Adolf Franz Friedrich, Freiherr von Knigge – who helped recruit Freemason lodges to the Illuminati cause – the clandestine group grew to more than 2,000 members throughout Bavaria, France, Hungary, Italy and Poland, among other places.

Yet in the city where it all began, this peculiar legacy remains little known among residents.

“Not so many people know about it. But the Illuminati are part of the history of Ingolstadt,” local journalist Michael Klarner explained as we stood outside the old University of Ingolstadt, an unassuming, church-like building just a short stroll from Sister Anna’s bookshop.

The Illuminati was never meant to be noticed

“Weishaupt was in many ways a revolutionary,” Klarner continued. “He liked the idea of teaching people to be better human beings. He wanted to change society, he was dreaming of a better world, of a better government. He started the Illuminati with the idea that everything known to human kind should be taught – something that was not allowed here at the university.”

Entering the old university building, I was on the lookout for any sign that Weishaupt’s organisation started within these thick medieval walls, but clues were noticeably absent.

But maybe that shouldn’t be so surprising – the Illuminati, after all, was never meant to be noticed.

The organisation didn’t evade the establishment for long, however. Just a decade after its creation, the secret society was infiltrated by Bavarian authorities after its radical anti-state writings were intercepted by government authorities. The Illuminati was shut down and Weishaupt was banished from Ingolstadt to live the rest of his life in the German city of Gotha, 300km to the north.

Yet the idea of a secret society revolting against the state has captured imaginations ever since, encapsulated in conspiracy theories cooked up by those who believe the Illuminati was never actually disbanded – a claim that has been widely debunked by historians. Even still, conspiracy theorists say that the organisation has been covertly working behind the scenes to subvert authority. The Illuminati has been suggested as the party responsible for the French Revolution, the assassination of US president John F Kennedy and even the 11 September 2001 terror attacks, and has become famous through books and films like Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons.

Weishaupt wanted to change society, he was dreaming of a better world

“The Illuminati conspiracy theory is what we call a ‘superconspiracy’, or basically a conspiracy that controls smaller conspiracies,” said Dr Michael Wood of the University of Winchester, an expert in the psychology of conspiracy theories. “People do talk about the Illuminati, but a lot of the time it’s in a joking or self-aware kind of way, almost making fun of the idea of a global conspiracy.”

And all of this began in a modest Bavarian city that’s better known as the setting of Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein than anything else.

Six Luxury Lifestyle Blogs Beau Satchelle Enjoys

So on a personal note, as a child, one of my many answers to “what do I want to be when I grow up” asked by grownups that influenced my life as a child (besides a veterinarian, a circus ringmaster and the manager of the next Jackson Five singing group), I was going to be the next Gloria Vanderbilt. I grew up when paper dolls were in vogue and I absolutely loved drawing clothes and was taught to sew by my Mom. As a teenager, I collected every magazine (way before the internet) that featured the latest and greatest in fashion for young women.

However, my career as a fashion designer didn’t pan out, but my love for beautiful things has grown immensely. Since the pre-launch of Beau Satchelle to the world and thanks to my world traveled partner and artist extraordinaire T. Michael who has broadened my experiences to another level in the world of luxury. Subsequently, my tastes have grown more sophisticated, I genuinely appreciate quality and excellence whether it be a wearing a handcrafted leather handbag, dining in a Michelin Star restaurant, or displaying treasured heirloom jewelry. The artist, chef or craftsman has put love and perfection into his or her work, which is what affluent customers deem priceless.

As we build our business, we keep an eye on our luxury leather competitors, but it’s just as important to understanding our market’s buying habits in other industries and how they engage in their chosen lifestyles. Our true love is leather, but we embrace the high standard of living our clients seek when it comes to discernment, uniqueness and beauty.

The growth of our business has a lot to do with our connections to our local, national and international network of business associates, however, we also have a number of luxury and lifestyle blogs we turn to for learning content. For Beau Satchelle, the blogs we read sometimes change and are put in rotation but always need to stay current, knowledgeable and communicate substantial material that can refer our readers to as well.

Celebrating 100 Years of Cartier’s Beloved Tank Cintrée

Drawing inspiration from the oldest Tanks, Cartier’s limited edition Tank Cintrée pays homage to its 1920s ancestors.Mar 03, 2021 | By Ashok Soman

Cartier only revealed the Tank Cintrée 100th anniversary model recently, but all 150 numbered editions are already sold. readyviewed Cartier Tank models are very desirable , but this is still a remarkable achievement for what is probably the world’s most attractive rectangular dress watch. That anniversary deserves a mention here, because Cartier celebrated 100 years of the Tank in 2017. We remember the party… The Tank story is a convoluted one, and this here, Cartier Tank Cintrée, is meant to celebrate the model in particular, which was one of the first wristwatches in the world to adopt the rectangular shape back in the heady days of the 1920s.

Now, you might engage in that contemporary habit of demanding a precise date, but consider for a moment that the Cartier Tank is a near-mythical object. This particular limited edition very closely matches a watch we have seen only in archive images, and the excellent book by Franco Cologni, Cartier: The Tank Watch (2012), the Cartier Tank Cintrée of 1924. The now-unavailable 2021 reissue of this handsome curved classic is made is in yellow gold, while the original was in platinum. However, QP reports that there was a 1921 version in yellow gold, and has the pictures to prove it.

All the features on the dial – from the apple-shaped hands and Roman numerals, to the so-called rail track and the distinctive beaded winding crown with its sapphire cabochon – are exactly as they appeared on the 1920s versions. In fact, they appear from the images to look as if they experienced a good deal of weathering. This is, of course, just for looks. Speaking of which, the crown in the 2021 version seems more like an homage to its 1924 ancestor, rather than its 1921 inspiration. Sadly, a closer inspection in person is not in the cards.

The story of the movement is also a little involved. First of all, the watch is rectangular but the manufacture calibre 9780 MC is round. Shock. Horror. But wait, what of the original? The Cartier Tank Cintrée of 1924 was powered by the LeCoultre calibre 123, which is in fact, round. Interestingly, both are also manual winders, and quite slim. The 2021 Cartier Tank Cintrée is just 6.4mm thick. We take this opportunity to salute Cartier for its success in finding homes for all their very fetching Tank Cintrée editions of 2021, and look forward to the next special edition, perhaps as soon as April…keep an eye  for more news and updates.

Step by Step Guide to Meditation


Meditate to relax, to feel better and to enjoy life, while you find peace and understanding. Renew your life

Meditation is the simple practice of training your attention. In meditation we cultivate the faculty of mindfulness, or awareness. We do this by trying to empty the mind of all the distractions of daily life for a little while. We set ourselves free from the endless, frantic chatter of our thoughts. We develop inner peacefulness.

Why Do People Use Meditation?

Many people come to meditation when the stress of everyday life destroys their sense of well-being. Facing pressures from the demands of work, personal conflicts, money worries, or family problems, they sometimes feel they are at the end of your rope. They just can’t cope with any more the stress. They obsess about the past, and they dread the future.

meditation on the beach

Other people turn to meditation for relief from pain, or for improved health. Sometimes they just want to enjoy life more. Sometimes they want to find inner peace. It is possible to accomplish all of this with meditation. There is a large body of scientific research that shows how meditation lowers blood pressure, reduces pain, eases depression and relieves anxiety. Meditation improves concentration. Meditation helps you sleep better, helps you control your cravings, makes you more alert and even smarter. Meditation improves your senses of happiness and pleasure. As if that weren’t enough to ask for, meditation is absolutely free, without any side effects, and its benefits are lasting.

How Do I Meditate?

To begin your meditation, chose a quiet place, and sit in a comfortable chair with good posture, hands relaxed on your legs, eyes closed. Breath slowly and naturally. Be aware of your breathing, the expansion of the body as you inhale, the relaxation as you exhale. Feel the warmth of the air as it moves inside you. Feel the movement of the body as it opens to accept the breath. Notice the rhythm of the breath, and how it happens naturally without any effort or intention on your part. Focus your entire attention on your breathing.

You will probably be distracted for a moment by other thoughts, but when that happens, turn away from the distraction. Recognize that the thoughts do not belong here at this time and draw your mind back to the breathing. During this moment, nothing matters except your breath. Continue meditating for about twenty minutes, if you can do it. Then, gradually allow yourself to become aware of your surroundings and open your eyes.

How Fast Does Meditation Work?

Are you looking for an instant cure? A feel-good-right-now pill? We’ve gotten used to demanding instant gratification and getting it. But meditation is not “serenity-now” in a bottle. It starts working when you start working. Its power builds gradually, with every session you practice it. Right away, you’ll be amazed at the incessant mental chatter that you allow to program your actions. During your first few sessions, your thoughts will zoom around like a NASCAR 500 race even though you try to banish them. You’ll find it hard at first to put your thoughts away even for a minute. You’ll think about deadlines, responsibilities, fears of job loss, a broken fingernail, a TV show, a passing car, an old grudge, a cold breeze.

But practice makes meditation work. After the first week of daily meditation, you’ll notice an improvement. The change will come as a sense of refreshment and calmness. It’s likely your friends and family will also notice the difference in you. After a month of meditation, many people have had life-changing experiences. You, too, can be on the road to serenity, accepting life as it comes, and living in the present.

I Don’t Have Time to Meditate. I Don’t Have a Quiet Place for Meditation.

If you truly can’t find the time or the place for meditation, you can start with a mini-meditation. Several times during the day, draw yourself into a state of mindfulness, by paying close attention to what is at hand. If you are frequently on the road, spend the time waiting at a red light to focus on your breath. If you have a repetitive task, draw your mind into the details of the task and try not to become distracted. When you begin to notice the benefit of mindfulness, very likely you will want to arrange a time and a place for your meditation.

What Will Meditation Do for Me?

Right away, you’ll feel yourself becoming calmer and more relaxed. Do you get “wigged out” trying to keep up with your daily schedule? Are you fretful and worried about the future? Meditation will help you deal with worries and stress in a calm, de-stressed manner. Some of those worries will just disappear. You’ll feel more relaxed all day and more in control. If you have a hair-trigger temper, it will mellow out. You won’t feel the need to blow off steam when things don’t go your way. You won’t react impulsively to each event. Instead, you’ll watch the unfolding of the moment for clues to handle it. If your inner critic tries to run the show, and if you tend to make snap judgments, you will become more objective and less demanding.

Meditation will enrich your creativity, by releasing ideas that you don’t even know you have. Meditation will unlock your best work. During the day, solutions will come out of nowhere and appear in your thoughts. You will have those “light-bulb” moments, when the new idea or the decision seems obvious to you. It feels good to be “in the zone.”

Are you nervous and uncertain about school and work? Meditation gives you the confidence and calm to face difficult situations. With your new, calmer, unrushed persona, you will express yourself more clearly. You will notice a personal change, in that you no longer question your ability or criticize yourself. More and more you will come to know yourself as the capable, worthwhile person you are.

Do you want to feel kinder and more loving? Do you need more patience in trying situations? More understanding? Do you want to feel more at peace with yourself and the world we live in? Day by day your practice of meditation will turn you in this direction.

Meditation makes us more aware of our thoughts and how they can control us. Meditation shows us that we invite worry, we blow things out of proportion, we allow anxiety to feed on itself and take over our thoughts. When the hectic chatter in your mind has been calmed and silenced, you will be more decisive. You will be able to make changes and renew your life.

I hope life brings you much success. I wish you a very happy day.

The super-rich: another 31,000 people join the ultra-wealthy elite

More than 31,000 people joined the ranks of the “ultra-wealthy” last year as the fortunes of the already very rich benefitted from rising global stock markets and increased property prices.

The number of ultra-high net worth individuals (UHNWIs) – those with assets of more than $30m (£26.5m) – rose by 6% last year to 513,244, according to a report by the property consultants Knight Frank.

 If the rich are getting richer, then where are they hiding it?

That means there are more ultra-wealthy people around the world than the populations of Iceland, Malta or Belize.

The UHNWI population is expected to swell by a further 27% to 650,000 by 2024, the report estimates, as huge fortunes are being made in India, Egypt, Vietnam, China and Indonesia.https://interactive.guim.co.uk/charts/embed/mar/2020-03-04T12:08:15/embed.html

Those with slightly more modest fortunes also increased. There are now 50m dollar millionaires (£770,000), up from 46.9m in 2019. That’s more than the population of Spain.

Knight Frank said in its annual wealth report that while 2019 was a “ tumultuous year” for many investors and pension funds, most of the very wealthy reported a bumper year for their personal fortunes.

Gap between rich and poor grows alongside rise in UK’s total wealth

“Economically, 2019 was outwardly a tumultuous year, with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) reducing its forecast for global GDP growth from 3.5% in January 2019 to just 2.9% in January 2020 – a 10-year low,” the report said.

“Despite this, the world’s UHNWI population rose by 6.4% … This is borne out by the results of our attitudes survey, in which 63% of [wealth managers] said their clients’ wealth had increased in 2019, with only 11% reporting a decrease.”

Liam Bailey, Knight Frank’s global head of research, says while almost half of the UHNWIs were in the US (where there are 240,000 people with more than $30m) the countries with the fastest-growing numbers of ultra-wealthy are in Asia and Africa.

“It’s exciting to see how wealth is developing across Asia and, with the number of ultra-wealthy in India, Vietnam, China and Malaysia outpacing many other markets over the next five years,” Bailey said. “It will be interesting to see how this impacts the global property market.”Advertisement

The UHNWI population in India is expected to increase by 73% over the next five years, from 6,000 in 2019. Knight Frank expects Egypt, where there are 764, to be the second-fastest growing and increase by 66% by 2024. They are followed by Vietnam, China and Indonesia.

The UK’s UHNWI population increased by 4% to 14,400, putting the UK in sixth-place behind the US, China (61,600), Germany (23,000), France (18,800) and Japan (17,000).

The overall numbers of UHNWI people in Knight Frank’s study sharply increased compared with its 2018 study, after the firm changed its methodology to include the value of individuals’ homes.
