The Empire, the Edict, and the Enigma
Under the rule of legendary Emperor Ashoka, one of the greatest emperors the world has ever known, a secret society was born much before any other shadow organisation came into existence.
Shrouded in deep secrecy the all-powerful organisation’s most revolutionary influence became all the more evident when Emperor Ashoka—once a fierce conqueror metamorphosed into an unusual pacifist. He also swore that society must not fall into the wrong hands.
The Nine Unknown Men formed a clandestine brotherhood.
Questions were asked: Were they real? Even today, people love to speculate on topics like whether are they still operating today.
Could they be behind some of the world’s most advanced technological advancements?
The greatest secret society you’ve never heard of predates the Illuminati, Freemasons, and Skull and Bones. It remains uniquely Indian, ancient, and chillingly secretive.
The Coming of the Ancient Secret Society
The blood spill of Kalinga War in 261 BCE fundamentally transformed Emperor Ashoka, who was haunted by the bloodshed and he embraced Buddhism. He vowed to protect humanity from the ravages of war.
According to legend, Ashoka summoned nine brilliant minds, who were assigned a book of forbidden knowledge. It spanned subjects such as time travel, psychological manipulation, biological warfare, communication with aliens and even gravity control.
These nine were asked not to use the knowledge—but to protect it.
The Nine Books of Forbidden Knowledge
Nine men guarded a book containing secrets that could destabilise entire civilizations. They were masters of arts and crafts and knew the science of bending facts at their will and according to their convenience.
Masters of Mind Game, Psychological Warfare
They knew techniques to manipulate mass opinion, influence mass, and control their thoughts.
Physiology
They knew methods of killing instantly by touch and accelerating or halting bodily functions.
Microbiology and Biotechnology
They had advanced knowledge of pathogens, viruses, and bioengineering centuries ahead of their time.
Alchemy and Metallurgy
They knew how to transform materials and create alloys unknown to modern science.
Communication
They possibly used telepathy or universal language translation tools.
Gravity Manipulation
They also knew how to manipulate the gravity. Was this ancient knowledge of anti-gravity or vimana made through flying technology?
Cosmology and Time Travel
Theorising space-time concepts far before Einstein.
Light Speed Travel
They held secrets to faster-than-light travel or information transfer.
Sociology and Human Evolution
Prediction and control of social movements and societal development.
Historical Mentions and Cryptic Clues
The idea of the Nine Unknown Men is not just a figment of imagination or folklore. The idea was made public by Louis Jacolliot, a 19th-century French author and colonial magistrate in India.
Thereafter, Talbot Mundy, a British novelist, turned it into a novel The Nine Unknown in 1923.
It is said Jawaharlal Nehru also once spoke about their existence during private talks. According to some, top-level Indian intelligence has inherited part of their work.
In modern times, some conspiracy theorists stressed that India’s DRDO (Defense Research and Development Organisation) indirectly continues the mission and vision of the Nine.
Are the 9 Still Live Among Us?
Some truly bizarre claims in few decades point out that “impossible” inventions have Indian roots:
- Water purification technology is linked to ancient Sanskrit texts
- Sanskrit-like coding language is studied by NASA for AI logic patterns
- Vimana blueprints is found in forgotten manuscripts like the Vaimanika Shastra
Are modern India’s rise in science, space exploration, and technology subtly influenced by ancient guardians of this arcane knowledge?
According to theorists, the nine have evolved into a decentralized think tank and their energy operate through universities, AI labs, and black-budget projects globally.
Eerie Parallels Across Cultures
The Nine Unknown Men aren’t isolated case buried in Indian mythology:
- The Illuminati is said to have taken control of banking and global events.
- The Freemasons society also holds ancient architectural secrets.
- The Thule Society had once influenced Nazi occult research.
But the famed Nine stand apart. They don’t manipulate power, worship, or money. They stand guard to protect humanity—from devastation.
Their story is uniquely Indian and has a deep spiritual undertone. The crux is protection of knowledge as dharma, not dominance.
Hoaxes or Truth?
Skeptics argue that the entire story is a clever narrative to glorify Ashoka’s legacy, Buddhist values, and modern conspiracy fiction. They argue the lack of primary historical sources.
But don’t you think a 2,000-year-old secret society would want silence, secrecy and anonymity?
Some recent viral YouTube videos have been reigniting the interest in the Nine. The content creators analyse ancient manuscripts, talk of mysterious temple symbols, and even cryptic code embedded in Vedic scriptures.
Why Nine Unknown Men Matter More Than Ever
The era of AI, quantum computing, and biological tinkering reinforces the idea that ancient great minds may have already foreseen the consequences and hidden the keys. Such a theory appears chillingly relevant.
What about a theory that mankind’s next quantum jump isn’t waiting in Silicon Valley but buried deep in India’s dusty archives, guarded by men and women whose names we’ll never know?
The Nine Unknown Men Who Know Too Much
The Nine Unknown Men of Ashoka may seem imaginary, fictional, or a metaphor. But the legend still appears eerily plausible going by a sequence of empirical evidence that too has never been made public, they say.
Never mind even if they are guardians of hushed truth, guardians of cosmic laws, or simply a fascinating tale of India’s mytho-historical puzzle. But there is no way to say with certainty or prove that they are
unreal. Probably, they’ve already transformed the world. And they’re well ahead in their attempt or great mission which may not be visible to common eyes.
