The Guild of the Grail (G:.G:.) was a religious organization describing itself as a solar initiatic Order of Knighthood being based upon the observance of the Traditional knightly virtues, using a system of symbolism and veiled allegory akin to that of Freemasonry, on a quest for spiritual perfection symbolized in by the Grail.[1]

[edit] History

The Guild of the Grail was founded on the North Solstice (June 21), 2001 ce. In 2002 it's founder, pseudonamed Sir Faustus, left the order. With no one to replace him as all other members were of the first grade, the order ceased receiving new members and became non-initiatic in regards to grade structure.[2] The order disbanded sometime after that.

[edit] Philosophy, aims and practice

Guild of the Grail described as its task to represent an Ideal, to live by a Standard, to reawaken a Royal Path of spiritual attainment amid a world of confusion, ignorance, pseudo-spirituality, and decline masquerading as progress. In addition to the upholding of knightly virtues and the observance of a system of symbolism, the chief avenue of pursuing the Grail Quest was to rediscover, rekindle, and live in accordance with Traditional principles in some form - to make a Kultural Ascent. The Guild of the Grail adhered to the ancient stream of Tradition as delineated in the writings of its latter-day representatives such as Réne Guenon, Oswald Spengler, Schwaller de Lubicz and particularly Evola as its guiding beacon and weltanschauung.
