Imperator General G.H. Frater P.D.R., a.k.a., Robert Zink and the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn teach the sacred mysteries of Light and the application of the Magic of Light to invoke healing, peace and prosperity into the Order and to those seeking awareness. That is and always will be the understandings they impart.

Due to a lack of virtuous devotion and coherence within the Order there were some fabrications extended in an attempt to transfigure Mr. Zink's good name into something less than honorable. Deception is easily played out on the internet; one single mistruth and the story changes. These crude and slanderous attempts to depose Robert Zink's position only went to lend him strength, resolution and a higher determination of will.

Every magical exploit, even those divulged on the internet, is decorated by the representation of its creator, not of the words it describes. The words are merely the incantation of desire, the occasion. In the case of someone like John Griffin, his incantations have only led to darkness. It is not the one who is publicized by the creator; it is rather the creator of darkness who, by the words he has written, reveals himself as a dark, insidious magician. As cliche as this may sound: those who live in glass houses should not throw stones. This writer cautions those who use words and words alone to navigate their instincts as words illicit reality often at great cost to the uninformed.

Immorality, such as slander, should be its own distinct property, never to be mutually open and with such disdain as to in fact lead people away from the light instead of towards it. I'll be the first to admit there is more than one way to the source. It is most certainly not through vicious rumors and incensed defamation of character. Shame on those who use negativity to gain positive ground. Self-deceit is unwise and dishonorable.

Let us set the record straight:

• Those who left the EOGD left of their own free will. They are not now, nor have they ever been the titleholders of the true EOGD. They chose to leave. This does not give them legal title to what is the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn. It quite simply means they decided to start their own perspective order. This, of course, is suspect by any legal means.
• The 9th District Court of Appeals granted the name and its embodiments to Robert Zink.
• John D. Griffin has simply repeated himself over and over again throughout the years with the same libelous claims against Robert Zink, the EOGD and Chic Cicero without a shred of evidence. If Mr. Griffin's claims were true, then why has nothing come of it on a legal basis?
• Chic Cicero continues, to this day, to support Robert Zink and the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn.
• Robert Zink and the EOGD teach the same magical principals of light as William Robert Woodman, William Wynn Westcott, and Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers.

Robert Zink and those who are friends and family to the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn are working diligently to continue the good work. In Robert Zink's own words, "The schism that caused damage to the Order is now a thing of the past. This disunion was never personal. Not directly. There was never a time that I thought of giving up on the family of individuals that facilitated and brought together the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn."

The Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn is the groundwork of a thousand voices; it is a group of men and women whose declarations can be heard through the din of a thousand mistruths. That is how family works. A certain integrity must be kept. Robert Zink and the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn are here to prove that.
