Written by Brian Carlos Sanchez, The Antient Arcane Antediluvian Rite is inspired by accounts and legends recorded in stone tablets roughly 3000 years Before the Common Era by the oldest known civilizations that inhabited the region of Mesopotamia. This ritual book is but a humble attempt to rekindle the ancient art of teaching through the rite of passage. It is the author’s hope that through the
rituals, allegory, and symbols introduced in this Rite, a long-forgotten memory will be unlocked that will reawaken us to a truth that has always been known deep within our hearts—that is, the arcane origins of Mankind and the true nature of our Being in relation to all that was, is, or ever will be. May this Antient Arcane Antediluvian Rite stand the test of time and remain profoundly relevant for centuries to come.
