- "May the Father of Understanding guide us."
- ―Templar blessing[src]
The Father of Understanding, is a person or a being to whom the Templars pledge allegiance and ask for guidance. In the Crusades, the Templars would usually sign his name before theirs in letters they wrote.[1] During the Renaissance, Templars would often ask him for guidance as a greeting or at the end of a meeting.[2]
During the early 21st Century, the CEO of Abstergo Industries, Alan Rikkin, e-mailed Warren Vidic, placing the blessing at the end of one of his messages.[2]

During Glyph puzzle number 6 from AC2 "Brothers" - The bible story of Cain and Abel (the sons of Adam and Eve), is used to explain the origins of the Templar order. Based upon the version of the story from the Mormon Bible, It is said that Cain killed Abel for his piece of Eden after entering into covenant with "Satan/ The Serpent", to become "Master Mahan" and obtain power. Cain was Likely the first templar as he had "the mark of cain" upon his body - which is shown to be the templar cross.
"The Father of Understanding", whom the templars seemingly venerate could in fact be the very Cain from biblical stories. Alternatively another theory could be that "The Father of Understanding", is "The Serpent" or "Satan" - whom himself is likely to be a "one who came before", but this has not yet been elaborated on.
