Ior Bock claims to be a direct descendant of the Finnish legendary hero Lemminkäinen and keeper of an esoteric tradition passed down through the generations.
A former tourist guide to the island fortress Suomenlinna; Ior Bock has gathered a cult following, mostly from new age minded people from Goa. His teachings consist of highly imaginative etymological derivations of words, designed to give credence to equally imaginative traditional customs which supposedly form the nucleus of an ancient Finnish religion.
The central religious tenet of his teachings is that man should not "waste" his semen but practise autofellatio to drink the Viisauden Vesi (water of wisdom). Women might also be allowed to "drink" it as a special favour and sacrament.
Besides joga exercises to keep limber, he and his followers conducted fund raising in order to finance an excavation to raise both earthly and spiritual treasures from The Temple of Lemminkäinen. According to the lore passed to him, there should have been a huge rock slab and beyond that a huge cavern filled with gold and sacred knowledge. As the last living and childless descendant of the lineage of Lemminkäinen, and thus its end point, the lore tells that he should claim the throne of Lemminkäinen.
The "fund-raising" hit a snag; when a local eccentric business-man promised to finance the excavation in case the local municipality allowed the dig to proceed.
Surprisingly the Sipoo town council voted to permit the excavation, calculating that they would be left with a tourist attraction. Fairly soon the dig hit bedrock. Undaunted, Ior Bock has been since raising cash to continue the excavation by blasting the bedrock away. He says there were many encouraging features discovered during the dig.
