People are finding it a bit strange that Prince Charles would cite Islam in a speech about environmentalism, but I find it even stranger that the future Supreme Governor of the Church of England would site a text that would be considered even more heretical, then a few sentences later quote WB Yeats, a member of the occult organization the Golden Dawn -
Even the apocryphal Gnostic texts are imbued with the same principle. The fragments of one of the oldest, ascribed to Mary Magdalene, instructs us that “Attachment to matter gives rise to passion against Nature. Thus, trouble arises in the whole body; this is why I tell you; be in harmony.” In all cases the message is clear. Our specific purpose is to “earth” Heaven. So, to separate ourselves within an inner darkness, leads to what the Irish poet, WB Yeats, warned of at the start of the Twentieth Century. “The falcon cannot hear the falconer,” he wrote, “things fall apart and the centre cannot hold.”
via Prince Charles calls on world to follow Islamic ‘spiritual principles’ to protect environment.
