Maybe you should go and read your bible friend. It never says Solomon was corrupt, rather all he wanted was wisdom and"god" gave him wisom and all the riches that go with it. It does say David had corrupted himself and therefore the covenant could not be completed with him.
Let me give you some advice, you would be wise yourself to take an honest study of the bible and the writers of it. If you did would would find that although the passages have been found to be historically correct, they also have alegory as a major part of their construction. There is a reson for this. you will also find parts of the new testiment are stated in the old. There is a reason for this. You will also find most of christianity has stolen (ah hmm escuse me...borrowed) its motifs from much older mystery schools, and reworked them under it's (New-Constatine Roman empire) image. There is also...a reason for this.
: John, Thank you for your comments, I venture to guess that if there was a living authority on the preponderence of evidence to support our conclusion that it has been and can be done, you would get a lion's share of the vote! I notice in your comments that you did leave out GOD as a potential force for keeping the secret hidden, that shows either respect or oversight, I am not sure which. I agree with you and I too am willing to be forgiven for positing that this must be the season and if not now, when? As for curses, there are many plaguing this globe and my point was not that a literal chinese curse is subjugating us all. Merely that we do live in "interesting times" as alluded to by my other statement about time and season. If and when you are shown the simple and sacred secret, I wonder if you will still hold to your statement, "no mystery-just blood sweat and tears", or if you will, like Bessler, give credit where credit is due. I suspect that you may be a Christian, or at least a deist, by inference. If you are a Christian then why be selective about where and when you will let your cup runneth over? The spirit does what it will only if you share His will.

Bessler was wise in his way. I have read a good bit of your material, John. You have wisdom too. May you see a reward for sharing it.

: : I respect the views expressed by all on this forum but it seems to me that there is a subtle movement which seeks to mystify what Bessler did. To me there is not MIB and no conspiracies nor are there any powerful principles keeping the solution hidden from public consciousness by man's will. There may be a time and season and if this is not it then I could be forgiven for supposing that it will never be, but I dont suppose that. Neither do I believe in an ancient chinese curse preventing us from solving this problem and Im sure that who ever discovers the answer to Besslers wheel will be as worthy as the next man, what ever that may mean.

Ive been picking at this problem for some forty years if you count my first day-dreamings about it, and I know that every time my solution fails I can come up with an alterntive that seems far more likely to succeed. I dont know how many solutions I have come up with but I tried to work
