Pascal Themanlys

Pascal Themanlys (27 September 1909 – 25 June 2000) was a French (later Israeli) poet, Zionist, and Kabbalist.

Pascal was born in Paris; his French parents Louis and Claire Themanlys were important disciples of Max Theon, and in charge of the "Cosmic Movement" in France.

Pascal himself only met Theon once in 1920 (when he was eleven, Théon was well into his seventies), although he claimed later he was initiated by his father Louis.

He met a number of important authors and artists such as Rabindranath Tagore and Paul Valéry.

In 1949 he emigrated to Israel where he became the head the French section of the Department of Information of the Jewish Agency.
