Bardonian hermetics are definately different from HoGD styles. Whereas Bardon mentions the qualities of Magnetic and Electric, GD teachings are generally found not to address them. Many GD schools (and those founded by Golden Dawn members) are very ceremonial. In Bardon's systems, there is generally very little ritual (except in his evocations and so forth). His approach could, I guess, be called more spiritually alchemical. JN322 17:25, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] About Bardon's death

The source for Bardon's cause of death (pancreatitis) is from his son Lumir, per reference [2]. But the author of that page (Paul Allen) makes it clear that it is his *speculation* that the condition was caused by Bardon eating a dish containing bacon; NOT that this is established in any way. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.232.129.254 (talk) 16:56, 12 March 2007 (UTC).


[edit] "Forward"

First of all, subjective statements like "to our great loss" do not belong in supposedly impartial, encyclopedic contents.

Secondly, for some strange reason the "References" section cannot be edited (it appears as empty). Could somebody who can edit it, please, correct the term "forward" which obviously refers to a FOREWORD?
