WHO WE ARE
We’re a Gnostic Society that is very interested in the esoteric brotherhood of man and all the ideas that the entire humanity have come up with and all of the systems and techniques of developing the self and community. We see ourselves as a type of fraternity – much like (Masonic Illuminati) an initiatic brotherhood in a way with our own rituals and our own mysteries, and so we’re very different but we have an intersection – we intersect with each other nonetheless.
OUR OBJECTIVES
The objectives of ILONY are:
- The search for truth.
- Deepening morality.
- Work on the improvement of the material and moral situation and on the mental and social improvement of humanity.
- To extend to all members of humanity the fraternal bonds between illuminati members throughout the world; also to promote this idea by example, in speech and in writing.
- To help make the world a better place to live in, by aiding each other, the community, the less fortunate, the youth, the elderly, and the environment in every way possible.

It was on 1 May 1776 that Adam Weishaupt, a professor of law at the University of Ingolstadt, founded the Order of the Illuminati, a secret organisation formed to oppose religious influence on society and the abuse of power by the state by fostering a safe space for critique, debate and free speech. Inspired by the Freemasons and French Enlightenment philosophers, Weishaupt believed that society should no longer be dictated by religious virtues; instead he wanted to create a state of liberty and moral equality where knowledge was not restricted by religious prejudices. However religious and political conservatism ruled in Ingolstadt at that time, and subject matter taught at the Jesuit-controlled university where Weishaupt lectured was strictly monitored.
After initially handpicking his five most talented law students to join, the network rapidly expanded, its members disseminating Weishaupt’s goals of enlightenment with radical teachings, while at the same time creating an elaborate network of informants who reported on the behaviour of state and religious figures in an effort to build up a wealth of information that the Illuminati could potentially exploit in their teachings. With the help of prominent German diplomat Baron Adolf Franz Friedrich, Freiherr von Knigge – who helped recruit Freemason lodges to the Illuminati cause – the clandestine group grew to more than 2,000 members throughout Bavaria, France, Hungary, Italy and Poland, among other places.
