As a human absorbs knowledge and wisdom, some will experience their Awakening: a pivotal moment when their minds evolve to a higher level of understanding than the majority. They begin to see themselves as the threads of a universal tapestry with the duty to uplift their fellow human beings and quickly understand the inner workings of wealth, power and authority. Those who have experienced their Awakening often describe it as the moment when their Eyelid opened.

The Illuminati are made up of individuals who have attained this Awakening. Leaders, innovators and other influential members of this planet have come together to shape the face of human society and guide its masses to find their own individual place in universal design.

To create a better world, unique beings with unique goals and beliefs must renounce their differences and work together for the good of all.

Progress requires cooperation. Humans need to suppress their natural defensive egoism and help others who appear, believe, or act in a different way than themselves. Unfortunately, many humans are only concerned about their own well-being and therefore cannot understand the positive intentions of a higher authority. Many would prefer this planet to remain in turmoil instead of following the directions that will lead them to happiness. Historically, the greatest enemies of human progression have been humans themselves. For this reason, those who have lived their Awakening understand the need for it to remain secret – for their own safety and the ultimate good of a humanity that often does not know what is best for it.

It is the responsibility of the Illuminati to ensure the continued survival and advancement of the human species, so that all people, everywhere, can live in abundance.
