The templars recovered ancient mystery religion knowledge.
"as I said before, there are seals of Baphomet that have the names of these demons on them. But if you think about it, here we have a hermaphroditic being which Baphomet eventually became represented as. Eliphas Levi in the 19th century depicted Baphomet in that goat-headed hermaphrodite way, and it’s been replicated infinitely ever since. If you think about it, that’s the combination of those three demons. You’ve got the hermaphroditic Serpent, and you’ve got the Azazel as the intermediary represented with the goat head.
I think that is what some Kabbalists taught: there was this ancient and primordial spirit that mankind has always been contending with in the quest for wisdom. The Templars must have encountered the same idea, represented it in the form of the severed head — which I think was more of a touchpoint. It was just a way of communicating with the spirit. They used the severed head because it went along with the traditions or common practices used by some magicians in the Middle East during that time of using severed heads for divination. They called them terafim. They would embalm a head, usually a baby’s head, and write magical sigils on the tongue to magically animate it. They would perform a ritual that would supposedly make the head magically come alive, start talking, and give you any information needed. This is probably what this Baphomet head was"
