'There exists in the world today, and has existed for thousands of years, a body of enlightened humans united in what might be termed, an Order of the Quest. It is composed of those whose intellectual and spiritual perceptions have revealed to them that civilization has secret destiny..
The outcome of this 'secret destiny' is a World Order ruled by a King with supernatural powers.
This King was descended of a divine race; that is, he belonged to the Order of the Illumined for those who come to a state of wisdom then belong to a family of heroes-perfected human beings.'
Does anyone know what being illumed actually means?

I believe it means being illuminated as to the nature and purpose of the Order itself. Of course, like all secret orders, the lesser ranks are given a bunch of esoteric fluff to illumine the beknighted corners of their mind and to otherwise line the lofty pillows of comfort upon which they sit, so to speak. Only the folks at the highest of levels get the real scoop about the goings on of the Order and their ultimate aims, etc.
