The Coming Race is an 1871 novel by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, reprinted as Vril, the Power of the Coming Race. Among its readers have been those who have believed that its account of a superior subterranean master race and the energy-form called "Vril" is accurate, to the extent that some theosophists, notably Helena Blavatsky, William Scott-Elliot, and Rudolf Steiner, accepted the book as being (at least in part) based on occult truth. A popular book, The Morning of the Magicians (1960) suggested that a secret Vril Society existed in pre-Nazi Berlin.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vril Vril]</ref> | The Coming Race is an 1871 novel by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, reprinted as Vril, the Power of the Coming Race.

The [[Vril Society]] was formed by a group of female psychic mediums led by the Thule Gesellschaft medium Maria Orsitsch (Orsic) of Zagreb, who claimed to have received communication from Aryan aliens living on [[Alpha Tauri]]<ref>[https://theskylive.com/sky/stars/aldebaran-alpha-tauri-star Skylive.com]</ref>, or [[Aldebaran]] in the [[Taurus (Constellation)]] | The [[Vril Society]] was formed by a group of female psychic mediums led by the Thule Gesellschaft medium Maria Orsitsch (Orsic) of Zagreb, who claimed to have received communication from Aryan aliens living on [[Alpha Tauri]]<ref>[https://theskylive.com/sky/stars/aldebaran-alpha-tauri-star Skylive.com]</ref>, or [[Aldebaran]] in the [[Taurus (Constellation)]]. Allegedly, these aliens had visited [[Earth]] and settled in [[Sumerian-Egypt Invasion|Sumeria]], and the word Vril was formed from the ancient Sumerian word "Vri-Il" ("like god"). A second medium was known only as Sigrun, a name etymologically related to Sigrune, a Valkyrie and one of Wotan's nine daughters in Norse legend. | ||
The Vril Society merged the political ideals of the Illuminati with Hindu mysticism, theosophy and [[Kabbalah]]. This is the first German nationalist group to use the swastika as a symbol connecting Western and Eastern occultism. Followers of Vril believed they possessed secret knowledge which would allow them to alter their race and become equal to a godlike race living in the depths of the Earth. The Vril Society presented the idea of a subterranean matriarchal, socialist utopia ruled by superior beings who had mastered the mysterious energy called the Vril Force. | The Vril Society merged the political ideals of the [[Illuminati]] with Hindu mysticism, theosophy and [[Kabbalah]].

The Society allegedly taught concentration exercises designed to awaken the forces of Vril, and their main goal was to achieve Raumflug (Spaceflight) to reach Aldebaran. To achieve this, the Vril Society joined the Thule Gesellschaft to fund an ambitious program involving an inter-dimensional flight machine based on psychic revelations from the Aldebaran aliens. | The Society allegedly taught concentration exercises designed to awaken the forces of Vril, and their main goal was to achieve Raumflug (Spaceflight) to reach Aldebaran.
