Father of Understanding
The Father of Understanding, is a being that the Templars pledge allegiance to and ask for guidance. Templars (at least during Renaissance) would often ask him for guidance as a greeting or at the end of a meeting:
May the Father of Understanding guide us
and in an e-mail, Alan Rikkin writes to Warren Vidic: "May The Father of Understanding guide you to success", meaning that the Templars still use the saying.
