This has to be the most perplexing part of this whole UFO Phenomenon. Many people who are fans of UFO culture, especially the Germanic side, have heard of the name “Maria Orsic” and don’t really know much about her. While things that are known about Maria Orsic are mostly fabrications, written and planned by a guy named Rudolf von Sebottendorf.
Sebottendorf was a Turkish Free Mason and a founder of the Thule Society. Originally before his involvement in Thule Society he tried starting his own occult group in Germany, however this failed. He found his way into the Germanenorden movement, which was a German version of an occult. Interestingly enough, the Germanenorden movement originally didn’t know about his evil ways. The leader of Germanenorden, Theodor Fritsch, one of the leaders of Germanenorden at the time, offered Sebottendorf, a position in the Munich branch of the Germanenorden in during WW1. However, during the war Anton Drexler took it upon himself to organize the Thule society instead, so the organization would act more as an auxiliary support system, for other projects in Bavaria. These included programs to help veterans from the First World War, all the way to helping individuals start public speaking and political careers. Sebottendorf also was the owner of a newspaper called the Völkischer Beobachter, which was purchased from Sebottendorf by Hitler in 1921. Shortly after the sale of the newspaper, Sebootendorf left German for Turkey soon after it was found out he was a spy, which resulted in information from the Thule Society being leaked to the German government, which lead to seven of its members being arrested and executed, for a supposes attack against the Munich government. Sebottendorf later tried to return to Germany in 1933, when Hitler came to power. This was in a futile effort to regain control of the Thule society, which only resulted in him being turned away, from the newly changed country.
The reason all of this is important to know, is because this guys, who is a known fraud, is also the one who has released the most information about the Vril Society, which still gets shared regularly online.
The most blatant deception we see of Maria Orics is in images of herself. Most people share these pictures of a women with pretty sapphire eyes and golden blonde hair, who they think is Maria Orsic, however these pictures that are shared of “Maria,” are actually pictures of another women, named Veronica Lake. Most of the headshots we see are from an old shampoo advertisement.
Another big discrepancy with the story of the Vril Society is the influence of a book tied to its creation, called “Vril- The Coming Race” by Edward Bulwer-Lytton. It is a fantasy about an underground civilization, and it has no ties to anything UFO or Nazis. I’m not saying a book didn’t have an influence on Maria Orsic, but I doubt it was this extent or any at all. There are however books with similar names of authors and titles, that are more likely to of had some influence in this quasi organization. “The Passing of the Great Race” by Madison Grant or “The History of The Flying Discs: A Contribution to its Possible Explanation” written in 1915 by Dr. Eduard Ludwig, are just some examples. Both of these books are more relatable to UFO phenomenon rather than Edward Bulwer-Lytton works.
“The Passing of the Great Race” by Madison Grant covers many aspects which inspired multiple ideas pushed by the Nazi: mainly that the white race was superior, and we we’re slowly being killed off. It is believed Hitler was very fond of this book, to the point of pushing him to be more protective of blonde hair, blue eyed people, even though Hitler himself had brunette hair. This idea is what inspire Lebensraum which pushed the Nazis to attack their Slavic neighbors in Poland and Russia.
UFOs have been seen before, but it was very rare. In Chile, on the opposite side of earth “The History of The Flying Discs: A Contribution to its Possible Explanation” was written. It doesn’t seem unlikely that this book made its way to Germany which inspired them to try building their own version of these same craft, which they eventually did.
