In The Unknown Hitler: His Private Life and Fortune by Wulf Schwarzwaller, Herr. Schwarwaller suggests that Hitler's persuasive powers were based on lessons he learned from Sufiism, Gurdjieff, teachings of Tibetan llamas, and Zen Buddhism.“In Berlin, Haushofer had founded the Luminous Lodge or the Vril Society. The Lodge's objective was to explore the origins of the Aryan race and to perform exercises in concentration to awaken the forces of "Vril."
"Haushofer was a student of the Russian magician and metaphysician George Gurdjieff. Both Gurdjieff and Haushofer maintained that they had contacts with secret Tibetan lodges that possessed the secret of the "Superman." The Lodge included Hitler, Aalfred, Rosenberg, Himmler, Goring and Hitler's subsequent personal physician Dr. Morell.
He also writes that:
"Alister Crowley and Gurdjieff sought contact with Hitler. Hitler's unusual powers of suggestion become more understandable if one keeps in mind that he had access to the "secret" psychological techniques of Gurdjieff which, in turn, were based on the teachings of the Sufis and the Tibetan lamas and familiarized him with the Zen teaching of the Japanese Society of the Green Dragon.”
BTW, I have heard the book this quote comes from described as "a tabloid in hard covers," and even harder to put down than a juicy tabloid. Alas, the book is out of print, but you can find used copies on the net.
