Holroyd
(Briefing for the Landing on Planet Earth,
p46) was told by Puharich that he heard of Arigó ‘quite by chance’ while in Brazil ‘on a mission connected with the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration’. However, according to John G. Fuller’s book on Arigó - to which Puharich contributed an afterword - Puharich and Henry Belk made the trip to Brazil specifically to seek out the healer, who was being studied by NASA engineer John Laurance. It is therefore a reasonable conclusion that, bizarre though it may seem, the ‘NASA mission’ actually concerned Arigó’s alleged abilities.

In 1984, Willis Harman, president of the Institute of Noetic Sciences (and a social scientist at SRI), stated in his introduction to Targ and Harary’s
The Mind Race
that the Institute had been the major funder of SRI’s preliminary remote viewing experiments. However, since the declassification of documents relating to the project in July 1995 it has been known that it was, in fact, the CIA that sponsored these experiments. This suggests, at the very least, that the Institute of Noetic Sciences allowed itself to be used as a cover for the CIA’s sponsorship.

The subject of Fulcanelli’s work and identity came up many times during VandenBroeck’s time with Schwaller de Lubicz, who said that he had worked closely with Fulcanelli and had sworn an oath not to reveal his true name. However, from Schwaller de Lubicz’s allusions to details of ‘Fulcanelli’s’ life - and in particular the description of his death in a Montmartre garret in 1932 — it is clear that he is referring to Champagne, who is, in any case, widely regarded as the best candidate for the role (see Courjeaud, pp85 — 103, and Johnson). VandenBroeck’s description of a sketch of Fulcanelli hanging in Schwaller de Lubicz’s house (p139) reveals that he bears a very close resemblance to Champagne.

Another possible significant connection between the legend of the Nine Unknown Men and the later Council of Nine, researched by Philip Coppens, comes through the thriller writer Talbot Mundy (1879-1940). A former British colonial civil servant, Mundy (real name William Lancaster Gribbon) settled in New York in 1909 and became an American citizen. In 1923 he wrote a novel, The
Nine Unknown,
inspired by Louis Jacolliot’s works, about a secret group in the East - referred to throughout as ‘the Nine’ - who exert a powerful influence on world affairs. Mundy was a Theosophist and a friend of the mystic Nicholas Roerich; from 1929 Mundy lived in an apartment above the Roerich Museum in New York. As discussed in Chapter 5, Roerich was the ‘guru’ of Henry Wallace, who funded Andrija Puharich’s early work at the Round Table Foundation.
