“Satan är dagens man” is the title of a book published by author Alexander Markus in 1995 by Caduceus publishing company. This book was published only in Swedish and the title translated into English is “Satan is the man of the day”.

The book is written as a story told to a group of people who have gathered at an inn in Switzerland during the late 20th century. These different people represent the governing forces in society in politics, business, the economy, the media, religion and the family. These people are visited by a mysterious stranger (representing the author himself) who begins to tell a story about the negative power of the universe which he describes as the embodiment of the mind and ego in the form of Satan. This story goes back in time and describes what was behind the rise of Hitler and Nazism and its connection to black magic and secret societies. It also goes into the multidimensional nature of man and he describes how the Soul and Mind work in relation to matter. It also has a section on “cosmic psychology” that shows how the mind is governed by the negative forces behind the world of the mind.

Alexander Markus writes on the back of the cover:

“We must become aware of ourselves as individuals and our role in this cosmic theatre. The choice is in our hands. We decide who will rule the world, God or Satan.”

Alexander Markus presents himself as a very highly developed person compared to most people on Earth. He actually describes himself as a person who has reached the highest spiritual levels that one can experience as a human being. He describes the world of the mind and the Soul in a special way and he claims that we ourselves can experience and understand creation if we reach the same spiritual levels that he himself has reached. Through his spiritual development, his spiritual vision has led him to be able to see through the world of the mind and describe reality as it actually looks.

Can Alexander really see reality and show its true nature or is he a liar and deceiver?

Markus writes:

“The truth is relative. Each individual has his truth and these individual truths are like access roads that lead to the main road. Before we get to the main road, our experiences are individual. When we reach the main road, our experiences are shared. In each specific situation there are several possibilities, e.g. when it comes to describing an event. By and large, there are as many ways to describe an event as there are people. But still, there is only one real truth about what really happened or is happening. Information about this truth is stored in the superconscious and if we can only open the right channels then we can have access to this information.”

To understand reality, we must have a higher consciousness, he writes, pointing out that consciousness and the Soul are the same thing. He shows that through his soul he can see his past lives.

“You can call me Jeshu ben Pandira, Markus Johannes, Saint Germain or John Mark if you like. I’m known by many names.”

Markus also describes that his spiritual vision is based on science:

“The words cosmic or spiritual have nothing to do with religion or idolatry. Religions are based exclusively on faith, while the cosmic or spiritual is based on the science of man and the universe.”

In Alexanders descriptions of reality he shows that there is a Universal Mind and an absolute consciousness in the Soul that is connected to what we call God. He calls this Atma Vidya (science of the soul).

“Cosmic psychology describes man from a space-time, and an eternity-dimensional point of view and demonstrates the difference between Mind and Soul. The Mind descends from the Universal Mind and belongs to the 4th dimension, while the Soul descends from the 5th dimension of eternity, infinity, the energy ocean of the absolute consciousness.”

Markus describes that in order to be able to see through the Mind and reach the Master in life, we must be able to separate the Soul from the world of the Mind.

“These are, from the point of view of consciousness, the most highly developed among mankind and who have attained Mastery in life, souls who have developed a cosmic four- and five-dimensional consciousness. There are only a few such intelligences on earth at present. They usually come from higher civilizations. How come they know so much more than what modern science accepts as knowledge? This is because they are able and equipped to separate (move their consciousness) from the physical body and that they are able to separate themselves from the world of the mind and to see themselves as pure cosmic energy, as five-dimensional beings. …”

“All those who have achieved mastery in life can do this in full day consciousness and not under any kind of trance state or suggestion used by so-called channeler or by hypnosis or regression therapists.”

In Alexander’s cosmology, he divides creation into two parts, which he calls Sat Purush and Kal Purush (Sanskrit language). The soul comes from God who is Sat Purush and the Mind from Kal Purush.

“The opposite polarity of Sat Purush is the negative pole, the universal mind, called Kal Purush, which is a projection of Sat Purush, a mirror image. Kal Purush is also known as Brahma by the Hindus, Jehovah by the Jews and Lucifer, Satan and the Antichrist by the so-called Christians.”

“The word Kal, means Spirit of Time, time, death, the transient. All that is time-bound and undergoes dissolution and transformation in the universe. Purush or Purusha means creative power, creator.”

Alexander also claims to be able to read from the “cosmic chronicle” to be able to see events that have taken place during the history of the Earth. A large part of this book describes the story of Hitler and Himmler and the Nazis’ connection to the negative pole Kal Purush, which he also calls the world of the mind. He also divides the world of the mind into different regions and compares this with the different chakra systems we have in the body. He says the lowest chakra levels lead to black magic and the highest to God and Sat Purush. He also describes the story of Hitler as a form of karmic retaliation that humanity has invited for its evil deeds in the past and that Hitler would be embodied in the execution of this evil karma.

“To the karmic retaliation that plagued Europe in the early and mid-twentieth century. To the influence of Satan and Arhiman during the 2000-year history of man and how this force clothed itself in the form of Adolf Hitler to teach man humility and love through suffering.”

“The rise of Nazism during the first decades of the 20th century and the Second World War, in which 25 million people were killed, in addition to all the suffering it caused to many survivors, was nothing more than a karmic consequence of what humanity has accomplished in 2000 years. It was the task of the Negative Powers to ensure that humanity paid in the form of war and suffering, in accordance with what they had done to each other. “

“Is it not the case that Hitler possessed a higher transcendental consciousness compared to most of his peers? Maybe he was just an instrument of fate, the law of karma.”

Hitler was also part of the World Doppelganger (spirit double) and the Anti-Spirit.

“The Negative Hierarchy, the World Doppelganger, the Anti-Spirit, the Antichrist, the Luciferian power are embodied in politics, in religion and in the financial world on earth and its actions have influenced and are constantly affecting human development.”

Markus then writes about a hierarchy which he divides into two poles and calls the Cosmic Federation. Note that he describes this hierarchy as consisting of two poles, a negative and a positive, as an organization that is one and the same and of a dual nature.

“This Federation consists of Highly Developed Souls that many know as Master Figures or Wisdom Teachers. They constitute the highest Hierarchy or Council of the form-manifested universe. This Hierarchy is of a dual nature. A positive called the Great White Brotherhood, the Divine Hierarchy or the Galaxy Council and a negative one called the Black Brotherhood, the Powers of Darkness or the Hierarchy of the Antispirit. Both of these hierarchies serve the Creator and the Creation. These two forces interact with each other and are dominant in different time periods depending on the human involution and evolution process. They are as necessary for our development as the mirror is for us to be able to see ourselves as we are and not as we have imagined we were.”

Alexander also describes that in the events of World War II, these two poles were present in the events of the war and he writes that both the Black Brotherhood and the White Brotherhood had a part in the secret society of the war. One of these societies was called the Theosophical Society. The Theosophical Society is well known these days and also all secret societies that have connections to these lodges such as the Freemasons, Rosicrucians, Ordo Templi Orientis and Golden Dawn. Alexander also says that Rudolf Steiner was one of the leaders of the Cosmic Federation:

“Leader of Europe within the Cosmic Federation was Dr. Rudolf Steiner, the most consecrated Christian adept at the turn of the century. That is why Adolf Hitler could not hide any of his activities from Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual vision, and he declared that he was the main enemy of the Nazi party. Dr. Rudolf Steiner from the year 1902 to 1912, was general secretary of the German section of the Theosophical Society, which he left in 1912 to form anthroposophy.”

Alexander also claims that the Cosmic Federation was in Tibet:

“We must remember, however, that Helena Petrovna Blavatsky’s so-called Theosophical Lodge did not have any permission from the then spiritual head of Tibet, the head of the activities of the Cosmic Federation, the Great White Brotherhood on earth, the Panchen” Tashi “Lama, Hutulktu, Kvan- shi, Dhyan Chohan for the 6th root race, something that HP Blavatsky invoked in his teaching and uses to found the Theosophical Society. The Cosmic Hierarchy, the Federation, has never given its permission, either in writing or orally, for the publication of such information and material that was known to be misused due to ignorance and for selfish reasons, for black-magic purposes. H.P. Blavatsky’s way of publicly publishing her The Secret Doctrine which she has received from the Tibetan Spiritual Head Panchen “Tashi” Laman, Kot Humi Lal Singh, was completely contrary to what the Cosmic Federation approved. Her publication resulted in the emergence and spread of secret orders in the world, whose activities were mainly based on black magic and the information they received in her book. Adolf Hitler’s perversion of the Cosmic Doctrine could have been avoided if he had not had access to H.P. Blavatsky’s The Secret Doctrine, the title of which already indicates that its contents were “secret” and not intended for public use.”

Alexander Markus goes on to write about the magical symbols that have influenced world development and describes the story of Longinus’ spear and how it has been replaced by the Holy Grail and shows how Rudolf Steiner describes this Grail Cup.

“The Holy Lance (Longinus spear) which appears in Rickard Wagner’s opera Parcifal, has influenced world development throughout history and its power has now been broken and replaced by the Holy Grail, the Grail Cup, the symbol of the New Age. The symbol of the higher cosmic man.”

“Rudolf Steiner sees in Jesus the union of two human currents, a fusion between the sinless, five-dimensional (cosmic), immaculate nature of the soul before the Fall, and the perfect earthly wisdom it gained after thousands of years of development through reincarnations. He believed that this mysterious union between cosmic consciousness and earthly wisdom was the holy grail that many have sought throughout the ages.”

Alexander shows in his book that Walter Johannes Stein (1891-1957) who was a student of Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) and his Anthroposophy belonged to the positive side and tells that Stein “infiltrated” the Thule Society. Stein wrote the book “The Ninth Century and the Holy Grail” in 1928.

The book also describes Max Heindel (1865-1919) who Alexander lists as his cosmic brother. Max Heindel was a Danish-American occultist, astrologer and mystic who joined the Theosophical Society in Los Angeles and became its vice president in 1904-05. Heindel also met Rudolf Steiner on a trip to Germany in 1907 and later founded The Rosicrucian Fellowship in 1909.

The author Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke published in 1985 the book The Occult Roots of Nazism which describes the Nazis’ connections to occultism and Ariosophy in Germany and Austria and shows the esoteric ideology built up by Guido von List and Jörg Lanz von Liebenfels. Many of the esoteric and occult societies that helped build the Nazi ideology had their inspiration from the Theosophical Society and many were also members of the Theosophical Societies that existed in Germany and Austria.

Vienna’s Theosophical Society, founded in 1887, also lists its members as members of the Guido von List Society. Rudolf Steiner is also listed as a resident of both the German and Austrian parts of the Theosophical Society.

The German part of the Theosophical Society also had members of the Guido von List Society. Franz Hartmann (1838-1912) who was an acquaintance of Helena Blavatsky started the German part of the Theosophical Society in 1896 at the same time as he was also a supporter of the Guido von List Society and one of the founders of the Ordo Templi Orientis. From the Guido von List Society also emerged in the year 1912 the Germanenordern and the Reichskammerbund. In the Germanenorder we also find Rudolf von Sebottendorf who founded the Thule Society in 1918.

Alexander writes that the actions during World War II were karmic retaliation and that Hitler, under the influence of Satan and Arhiman, carried out this suffering for humanity. We can see that the secret societies that Alexander calls the Black Brotherhood or Black Lodges that built the ideology of Nazism were part of the Theosophical Society and so were those who belonged to the White Brotherhood.

Is it not the case that this “cosmic theatre” shows who is really pulling the strings in his puppets?

“Poor slaves, shackled and bound by a force you neither know nor understand. Should I tell you who he is? You who are all his slaves … Satan, my friends! Satan is the man of the day! “
