Whereas the research for this book's predecessor,
Bloodline of the
Holy Grail, was New Testament based, Genesis of the Grail Kings
concentrates on Old Testament times, particularly on the early
stories from the books of Genesis and Exodus.
As discovered in previous studies, the Gospel texts which have been
in the public domain for centuries often bear little relation to the
first-hand accounts of the era to which they relate.
The New Testament, as we know it, was contrived by the 4th-century
bishops to support the newly manipulated Christian faith and, in
just the same way, the Old Testament scriptures were designed to
uphold the emergent Hebrew faith, rather than to represent
historical fact.
Clearly, one has to get back to the pre-biblical writings in order
to find any anomalies, but the problem in scriptural terms is that
the earliest Hebrew writings (which were restructured many centuries
later) were themselves only written between the 6th and the 1st
centuries BC, so they are not likely to be wholly authentic in their
telling of accounts from thousands of years before. Indeed, it is
plain that this is the case because, when these books were first
written, their express purpose was to convey the history of a
religion which did not actually emerge until well into the ancestral
story.
The Bible explains that the Bloodline story began with Adam and
Eve,
from whose third son Seth evolved a line which progressed through
Methuselah, Noah and, eventually, to Abraham who became the great
patriarch of the Hebrew nation. The text relates that Abraham
brought his family westwards out of Mesopotamia (present day
Iraq)
to the land of Canaan (Palestine), from where some of his
descendants moved into Egypt. After many generations, they journeyed
back into Canaan where, in time, David of Bethlehem became king of
the newly defined kingdoms of Judah and Israel.
If viewed as it is presented in the scriptures, this is a
fascinating saga, but there is nothing anywhere to indicate why the
ancestral line of David and his subsequent heirs was in any way
special. In fact, quite the reverse is the case; his ancestors are
portrayed as a succession of wandering territory seekers, who are
seen to be of no particular significance until the time of King
David himself.
Their biblical history bears no comparison to, say, the contemporary
pharaohs of ancient Egypt, but their significance, we are told,
comes from the fact that Abraham and his descendants were designated
as 'God's chosen people'. This, of course, leaves us wondering
because, according to the Old Testament, their God led them through
nothing but a succession of famines, wars and general hardship,
rather than acting throughout as their merciful shepherd - an image
which is only portrayed from time to time.
Given that the first group of these ultimately canonical books was
written while the Jews were held captive in Mesopotamian Babylon in
the 6th century BC, it is apparent that Babylon was where the
original records were then held. In fact, from the time of Adam,
through some nineteen said generations down to Abraham, the whole of
Hebrew patriarchal history was Mesopotamian.
More specifically, the
history was from
Sumer in southern Mesopotamia, where the ancient
Sumerians did indeed refer to the grass-lands of the Euphrates delta
as the Eden.
When researching for Bloodline of the Holy Grail, it was apparent
that good sources for background information were the various
Gospels and texts that were not selected by the bishops for
inclusion in the canonical New Testament - the books that were
strategically ignored. Similarly, there were books that were
excluded from the Old Testament:
the books of Enoch and Jubilees,
for example.
A further work, to which attention is specifically drawn in the Old
Testament books of Joshua and 2-Samuel, is the
book of Jasher. But
despite Jasher's apparent importance to the Hebrew writers, it was
not included in the final selection. Also, the book of Numbers draws
our attention to the book of The Wars of Jehovah, while in the
book
of Isaiah we are directed towards the book of The Lord.
The very
fact that these writings are mentioned in the Bible means that they
must pre-date the Old Testament. Indeed, they are all cited as being
important but, for one reason or another, the editors saw fit to
exclude them when the canonical selection was made.
It has often been wondered why the biblical God of the Hebrews led
them through trials, tribulations, floods and disaster when, from
time to time, he appears to have performed with a quite contrary and
merciful personality.
The answer is that, although now seemingly
embraced in a general context as the One God by the Jewish and
Christian churches, there was originally a distinct difference
between the figures of
Jehovah and
the Lord.
They were, in practice,
quite separate deities. The god referred to as Jehovah was
traditionally a storm god - a god of wrath and vengeance, whereas
the god referred to as the Lord emerges as a god of fertility and
wisdom.
In early times, the prevailing Hebrew word for Lord was Adon,
whereas the apparent personal name of Jehovah was not used at all.
It came from the original Hebrew stem YHWH (Yahweh), which meant
'I
am that I am' - a statement said to have been made by God to Moses on
Mount Sinai hundreds of years after the time of Abraham. However,
the Bible also makes it clear that the God of Abraham was actually
called El Shaddai, which means Lofty Mountain.
Jehovah was, therefore, not a name at all. The early texts refer
simply to El Shaddai and to his opposing counterpart Adon. The
Canaanites called these gods El Elyon and Baal, meaning precisely
the same things: Lofty Mountain and Lord. In modern Bibles, the
definitions God and Lord are used and intermixed throughout as if
they referred to the same Jehovah character, but originally they did
not.
One was a vengeful god (a people suppressor), and the other was
a social god (a people supporter). Additionally, in contrast to
Bible teachings, the various traditions relate that these gods both
had parents, wives, sons and daughters.
Throughout the patriarchal era, the emergent Hebrews endeavoured to
support Adon the Lord but, at every turn, El Shaddai (the storm god
Jehovah) retaliated with floods, tempests, famines and general
destruction. Even at the time of the Captivity (around 586 BC), the
Bible explains that Jerusalem was overthrown at Jehovah's bidding.
Tens of thousands of Israelites were then taken hostage into Babylon
simply because one of their past kings (a descendant of King David)
had erected altars in veneration of Baal the Adon.
It was during the course of this Captivity that the Israelites
finally conceded. They decided, after generations of Adon support,
to succumb to the opposing god of wrath, developing a new religion
out of sheer fear of his retribution. It was, in fact, at this time
that the apparent name of Jehovah first appeared - little more than
500 years before the time of Jesus.
Subsequently, the Christian
Church took Jehovah on board as well, calling him simply God, and
all the hitherto social concepts of Adon were totally discarded. The
two religions were henceforth both faiths of fear, and even today
their followers are classified as 'God fearing'.
This leaves us with the knowledge that, within an overall pantheon
of gods and goddesses (many of whom are actually named in the
Bible), there were two predominant and opposing gods. In different
cultures they have been called El Elyon and Baal, El Shaddai and
Adon, Ahriman and Mazda, Jehovah and Lord,
God and Father - but
these styles are not personal names; they are all titular
definitions.
To discover the identities of these gods, we have to look no further
than where they were first recorded as being operative. In this
regard, ancient Canaanite texts (discovered in Syria in the 1920s)
reveal that their respective courts were in the Tigris-Euphrates
valley in
Mesopotamian Sumer - above the Eden delta of the Persian
Gulf.
Sumerian written records can be traced back to the 3rd millennium BC
and they explain that the gods in question were brothers. In Sumer,
the storm-god who eventually became known as Jehovah was called
Enlil or Ilu-kur-gal (meaning Lofty One of the Mountain) and his
brother, who became Adon the Lord, was called Enki - a very
appropriate name because Enki means Archetype.
The texts inform us that it was Enlil who brought the Flood; it was
Enlil who destroyed Ur and Babylon, and it was Enlil who constantly
opposed the education and enlightenment of humankind. Indeed an
early Syrian text relates that it was Enlil-Jehovah who obliterated
the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah on the Dead Sea - not because they
were dens of wickedness as is generally taught, but because they
were great centers of wisdom and learning.
It was Enki, on the other hand, who (despite the vengeful wrath of
his brother) granted the Sumerians access to the Tree of Knowledge
and the Tree of Life. It was Enki who set up the escape strategy
during the Flood, and it was Enki who passed over the time-honoured
Tables of Destiny - the tablets of scientific law which became the
bedrock of the early mystery schools in Egypt.
Many books mention the hermetic school of Pharaoh Tuthmosis III, who
reigned about 1450 BC, but it is not generally known that the school
he inherited was the original Court of the Dragon, founded by the
priests of Mendes in about 2200 BC.
It was later ratified by the
12th-dynasty Queen Sobeknefru as a sovereign and priestly Order, to
be eventually passed from Egypt to the Kings of Jerusalem and the
Black Sea Princes of Scythia.
Around 600 years ago King Sigismund of
Hungary reconstituted the Order, which exists today as the Imperial
and
Royal Court of the Dragon Sovereignty under the auspices of the
House of Vere of Anjou.
The kings of the early succession (who reigned in Sumer and
Egypt
before becoming Kings of Israel) were anointed upon installation
with the fat of the Dragon: the sacred crocodile. This noble beast
was referred to in Egypt as the Messeh (from which derived the
Hebrew verb 'to anoint') - and the Kings of this dynastic succession
were referred to as Dragons or Messiahs (meaning Anointed Ones). In
times of conflict, when the armies of different kingdoms were
conjoined, an overall leader was chosen and he was called the Great
Dragon (the King-of-kings) or, as we better know the name in its old
Celtic form, the Pendragon.
An interesting aspect of the word 'kingship' is that it was
identical with kinship - and kin means 'blood-relative'. In its
original form kinship was kainship, and the first King of the
Messianic succession was the biblical Cain (Kain), Head of the
Sumerian House of Kish. On recognizing this, one can immediately see
an early anomaly in the traditional Genesis story, for the
historical line to David and Jesus was not from Adam and Eve's son
Seth at all. It was from Eve's son Cain, whose recorded successors
(although given little space in the Old Testament) were the first
great kings of Mesopotamia and Egypt.
Two more important features then come to light when reading the
Bible with this knowledge in mind. Conventional teaching generally
cites Cain as being the first son of Adam and Eve - but he was not;
even the book of Genesis tells us that he was not. In fact, it
confirms how Eve told Adam that Cain's father was the Lord, who was
of course Enki the Archetype. Even outside the Bible, the writings
of the Hebrew Talmud and Midrash make it quite plain that
Cain was
not the son of Adam.
So what else is wrongly taught about this particular aspect of
history? The book of Genesis (in its English translated form) tells
us that Cain was 'a tiller of the ground' - but this is not what the
original texts say at all. What they say is that Cain had 'dominion
over the earth', which is a rather different matter when considering
his kingly status.
The Bible translators appear to have had a constant problem with the
word Earth - often translating it to ground, clay or dust, instead
of recognizing it as relating to The Earth. Even in the case of Adam
and Eve, the translators made glaring errors. The Bible says, 'Male
and female created he them, and he called their name Adam'. Older
writings use the more complete word Adāma, which means 'of the
Earth'. However, this did not mean they were made of dirt; it means
(as the Anchor Hebrew Bible explains in precise terms) that they
were Earthlings.
Around 6000 years ago, Adam and Eve (known then as Atābba and
Kāva -
and jointly called the Adāma) were purpose-bred for kingship by
Enki
and his sister-wife Nīn-khursag. This took place at a 'creation
chamber' which the Sumerian annals refer to as the House of Shimtī
(Shi-im-tī meaning 'breath - wind - life' ).
Adam and Eve were
certainly not the first people on Earth, but they were the first of
the alchemically devised kingly succession. Nīn-khursag was called
the Lady of the Embryo or the Lady of Life, and she was the
surrogate mother for Atābba and Kāva, who were created from human
ova fertilized by the Lord Enki.
It was because of Nīn-khursag's title, Lady of Life, that Kāva was
later given the same distinction by the Hebrews. Indeed, the name
Kāva (Ava or Eve) was subsequently said to mean
'life'. There is an
interesting parallel here because, in Sumerian, the style Lady of
Life was Nīn-tī (Nīn meaning Lady, and tī meaning Life). However,
another Sumerian word, ti (with the longer pronunciation: 'tee')
meant 'rib' - and it was by virtue of the Hebrews' misunderstanding
of the two words, tī and ti, that Eve became incorrectly associated
with Adam's rib.
Both Enki and Nīn-khursag (along with their brother Enlil -
the
later Jehovah) belonged to a pantheon of gods and goddesses referred
to as
the Anunnaki which, in
Sumerian, means 'Heaven came to Earth'
(An-unna-ki). In fact, the Grand Assembly of the Anunnaki (later
called the Court of the Elohim) is actually mentioned in the Old
Testament's Psalm No. 82, wherein Jehovah makes his bid for supreme
power over the other gods.
According to the Dragon tradition, the importance of Cain was that
he was directly produced by Enki and Kāva, so his blood was
three-quarters Anunnaki, while his half-brothers, Hevel and
Satānael
(better known as Abel and Seth), were less than half Anunnaki, being
the offspring of Atābba and Kāva (Adam and Eve).
Cain's Anunnaki
blood was so advanced that it was said that his brother Abel's blood
was earthbound by comparison. It was related in the scriptures that
Cain 'rose far above Abel', so that his brother's blood was
swallowed into the ground - but this original description was
thoroughly misinterpreted for the modern Bible, which now claims
that Cain 'rose up against Abel' and spilled his blood upon the
ground. This is not the same thing at all.
The story can now be progressed by considering the oldest Grant of
Arms in sovereign history - an entitlement which denoted the
Messianic Dragon bloodline for all time. The Sumerians referred to
this insignia as the Gra-al, but biblical history refers to it as
the Mark of Cain. This Mark is portrayed by the modern Church as if
it were some form of curse, but it is not defined as such in the
Bible.
Genesis actually relates that, having got into an argument
with Jehovah over a matter of sovereign observance, Cain feared for
his life. Consequently, the Lord placed a mark upon Cain, swearing
sevenfold vengeance against his enemies.
It has never been fully understood why Jehovah should decide to
protect Cain when it was he who held the grievance against him. But
the fact is that Jehovah did not make this decision; the mark was
settled upon Cain by the Lord - and the Lord (the Adon) was not
Jehovah but Cain's own Father, Enki.
Few people ever think to enquire about the supposed enemies of Cain
as defined in Genesis. Who could they possibly have been? Where
would they have come from? According to the Bible only Adam and Eve,
along with their sons Cain and Abel, existed - and Cain had
apparently killed Abel. Therefore, if one accepts the text as it
stands, there was no one around to be Cain's enemy!
The Sumerian Gra-al, which biblical tradition calls the Mark of
Cain, was an emblem dignified as the Cup of the Waters, or the
Rosi-Crucis (the Dew Cup), and it was identified in all records
(including those of Egypt, Phoenicia and the Hebrew annals) as being
an upright, centered Red Cross within a Circle. Throughout the ages
it was developed and embellished, but it has always remained
essentially the same and is recognized as being the original symbol
of the Holy Grail.
Another anomaly is presented soon afterwards in Genesis when we are
told that Cain found himself a wife. Who on earth were her parents
if Adam and Eve were the only couple alive? Then, without
confronting this anomaly at all, Genesis proceeds to list the names
of Cain's descendants! It becomes clear from all this that some very
important information has been edited from the Old Testament
narrative.
Plainly, there were plenty of other people around at the
time and it is not difficult to find their stories outside the
Bible. Quite apart from the Sumerian records, even old Hebrew and
early Christian texts give far more information in this regard.
In order to further enhance the historical succession from Cain, he
was married to his half-sister, a pure-bred Anunnaki princess called
Luluwa. Her father was Enki and her mother was
Lilith, a
granddaughter of Enlil. Although not giving the name of Cain's wife,
the Bible does name their younger son Enoch (Henōch), while the
Sumerian records cite his elder son and kingly successor Atūn, who
is perhaps better known as King Etāna of Kish.
Etāna was said to have 'walked with the gods' and was fed from the
Plant of Birth (or the Tree of Life as it is called in Genesis).
Henceforth, the kings of the line were designated as being the twigs
of the Tree - and the ancient word for twig was 'klone' (clone). In
later times, this Plant or Tree was redefined as a Vine - and so the Graal, the Vine and the Messianic Bloodline became entwined in the
Holy Grail literature of subsequent ages.
By virtue of their contrived breeding, this kingly succession was
modelled specifically for leadership and, in all aspects of
knowledge, culture, awareness, wisdom and intuition, they were
highly advanced against their mundane contemporaries.
In order to
keep their blood as pure as possible, they always married within a
close kinship, for it was fully recognized that the prominent gene
of the succession was carried within the blood of the mother. Today
we call this the Mitochondrial DNA. And so was born a tradition
inherited by their kingly descendants in Egypt, and by the later
Celtic rulers of Europe.
True kingship, it was maintained, was
transferred through the female and kingly marriages were, therefore,
strategically cemented with maternal half-sisters or matrilinear
first cousins.
Having reached the point where the Plant of Birth is first mentioned
in the records, we are at about 3500 BC, and it is at this stage
that we begin to learn how the kingly succession was orally fed with
bodily supplements from the early days. This original practice
continued for more than 1000 years until the nourishment program
became wholly scientific and alchemical.
Before discussing the kingly diet in detail, it is worth considering
why it was that the all-important Blood Royal (the Sangréal) which
progressed from Cain and his sons was strategically ignored by the
Hebrews and the Christian Church in favour of their promoting a
parallel junior line from Adam's son Seth. Why was it that the
immediate Cainite dynasty was eventually shunned by the fearful
disciples of Enlil-Jehovah?
In the Old Testament book of Genesis, the lines of descent are given
from Cain and from his half-brother Seth, but it is of interest to
note that the names detailed in the early generations are pretty
much the same in each list, although given in a different order:
Enoch, Jared, Mahalaleel, Methuselah and
Lamech.
In view of this, it
has often been suggested that the line from Seth down to Lamech's
son Noah was contrived by the Bible compilers so as to avoid showing
the true descent from Cain to the time of Noah. If this were the
case, then something must have occurred during the lifetime of Noah
to cause the ancestral story to be veiled by the later writers, as
is indeed conveyed in the Bible itself.
At that stage in the family's history, the vengeful
Jehovah
apparently warned Noah and his sons against the ingestion of blood -
an edict which became expressly important to the later Hebrew way of
life. It has long been a customary Jewish practice to hang meat for
bloodletting before cooking and consumption but, in contrast, the
Christian faith is especially concerned with the figurative
ingestion of blood.
In the Christian tradition it is customary to
take the Communion sacrament (the Eucharist), wherein wine is drunk
from the sacred chalice, symbolically representing the blood of
Jesus: the life-blood of the Messianic Vine.
Could it be, therefore, that the modern Christian custom is an
unwitting throw-back to some distant pre-Noah ritual which Jehovah
opposed? If so, then since it is known that the Chalice is a wholly
female symbol which has been emblematic of the womb from the
earliest times (as discussed in Bloodline of the Holy Grail), might
this Messianic life-blood (now symbolized by wine) have been an
extract of menstrual blood in original times?
The answer to these
questions is Yes, that was precisely the custom - but it was not so unsavoury as it might seem. Indeed, few of us think to enquire about
the ultimate sources of many of today's ingested medicines and
bodily supplements - and those in the know would often be reluctant
to tell us.
The Premarin hormone, for example, comes from the urine
of pregnant mares, while certain growth hormones and Insulin are
manufactured from E.coli - a faecal bacterium.
The blood extract in question was, in the first instance, that of
Enki's sister-wife Nīn-khursag, the designated Lady of Life. It was
a sacred Anunnaki essence, defined as the most potent of all
life-forces and venerated as being
Star Fire. It was from the womb
of Nīn-khursag that the royal line was born and it was with her
blood, the divine Star Fire, that the Dragon succession was supplementally fed.
In ancient Egypt,
Nīn-khursag was called Isis
and, by either name, she was the ultimate mother of the Messianic
line, for hers was the matrilinear gene which constituted the kingly
beginning.
It is worth remembering, therefore, that the biblical edict to
abstain from blood came not from Enki the Wise, but from Enlil-Jehovah, the god of wrath and vengeance who had instigated the
Flood, wrought havoc in Ur and Babylon, and had endeavoured to
deceive Adam by saying that he would die if he ate from the Tree of
Knowledge.
This was not a god who liked people and the Sumerian
records are very clear in this regard. Hence, if he forbade the
taking of blood, this was not likely to have been an edict for the
benefit of Noah and his descendants; it was most probably to their
detriment.
In strict terms, the original Star Fire was the lunar essence of the
Goddess, but even in an everyday mundane environment, menstruum
contains the most valuable endocrinal secretions, particularly those
of the pineal and pituitary glands. The brain's pineal gland in
particular was directly associated with the Tree of Life, for this
tiny gland was said to secrete the very essence of active longevity,
referred to as soma - or as the Greeks called it, ambrosia.
In mystic circles, the menstrual flow-er (she who flows) has long
been the designated flower, and is represented as a lily or a
lotus.
Indeed, the definition 'flow-er' is the very root of the modern word
flower. In ancient Sumer, the key females of the royal succession
were all venerated as lilies, having such names as Lili, Luluwa,
Lilith, Lilutu and Lillette.
In pictorial representation, the Messianic Dragon bore little
relation to the winged, fire-breathing beast of later western
mythology. It was, in essence, a large-jawed serpent with four legs
- very much like a crocodile or a monitor. This was the sacred Messeh whose name was
Draco. This sovereign beast was a divine
emblem of the Egyptian pharaohs, a symbol of the Egyptian
Therapeutate in Karnak and Qumrān, while also being the Bistea
Neptunis sea-serpent of the descendant Merovingian Fisher Kings in
Gaul.
In old Hebrew texts references to serpents are made by use of the
word nahash (from the stem NHSH), but this does not relate to
serpents in the way that we might perceive them as venomous snakes.
It relates to serpents in their traditional capacity as bringers of
wisdom and enlightenment - for the word nahash actually meant
'to
decipher', or 'to find out'.
Serpents, in one form or another, were
always associated with wisdom and healing - with the Trees of Life
and Knowledge being customarily identified with serpents. Indeed the
insignia of many of today's medical associations is precisely this
image of a serpent coiled around the Plant of Birth - a depiction
shown in the reliefs of ancient Sumer to be Enki's own personal
emblem.
Interestingly, though, another common emblem for medical relief
organizations depicts two coiled serpents, spiralling around the
winged caduceus of Hermes the magician. In these instances, the true
symbolism of the Star Fire ritual is conveyed and this symbol can be
traced back to the very origins of the alchemical mystery schools
and gnostic institutions.
The records explain that the central staff
and entwined serpents represent the spinal cord and the sensory
nervous system. The two uppermost wings signify the brain's lateral
ventricular structures. Between these wings, above the spinal
column, is shown the small central node of the pineal gland.
The combination of the central pineal and its lateral wings has long
been referred to as the Swan and in Grail lore (as in some Yogic
circles) the Swan is emblematic of the fully enlightened being. This
is the ultimate realm of consciousness achieved by the medieval
Knights of the Swan - as epitomized by such chivalric figures as
Perceval and Lohengrin.
The pineal is a very small gland, shaped like a pine-cone. It is
centrally situated within the brain, although outside the
ventricles, and not forming a part of the brain-matter as such.
About the size of a grain of corn, the gland was thought by the
17th-century French optical scientist, René Descartes, to be the
seat of the soul - the point at which the mind and body are
conjoined.
The ancient Greeks considered likewise and, in the 4th
century BC, Herophilus described the pineal as an organ which
regulated the flow of thought.
In the days of ancient Sumer, the priests of Anu (the father of
Enlil and Enki) perfected and elaborated a ramifying medical science
of living substances with menstrual Star Fire being an essential
source component. In the first instance, this was pure Anunnaki
lunar essence called Gold of the Gods, and it was fed to the kings
and queens of the Dragon succession. Later, however, in Egypt and Mediterranea, menstrual extracts were ritually collected from sacred
virgin priestesses who were venerated as the Scarlet Women. Indeed,
the very word 'ritual' stems from this practice, and from the word
ritu (the redness), which defined the sacred ceremony.
Hormonal supplements are, of course, still used by today's
organo-therapy establishment, but their inherent secretions (such as
melatonin and serotonin) are obtained from the desiccated glands of
dead animals and they lack the truly important elements which exist
only in live human glandular manufacture.
In the fire symbolism of ancient alchemy, the colour red is
synonymous with the metal gold. In some traditions (including the
Indian tantras), red is also identified with black. Hence, the
goddess Kali is said to be both red and black. The original heritage
of Kali was, however, Sumerian, and she was said to be Kalimāth, the
sister of Cain's wife Luluwa. Kali was a primary princess of the
Dragon house and from her Star Fire association she became the
goddess of time, seasons, periods and cycles.
In the early days, therefore, the metals of the alchemists were not
common metals, but living essences, and the ancient mysteries were
of a physical, not a metaphysical, nature. Indeed, the very word
'secret' has its origin in the hidden knowledge of glandular
secretions. Truth was the ritu, from which stems not only ritual,
but also the words rite, root and red.
The ritu, it was said,
reveals itself as physical matter in the form of the purest and most
noble of all metals: gold, which was deemed to represent an ultimate
truth.
Just as the word secret has its origin in the translation of an
ancient word, so too do other related words have their similar
bases. In ancient Egypt, the word amen was used to signify something
hidden or concealed. The word occult meant very much the same:
'hidden from view' - and yet today we use amen to conclude prayers
and hymns, while something occult is deemed sinister. In real terms,
however, they both relate to the word secret, and all three words
were, at one time or another, connected with the mystic science of
endocrinal secretions.
Since Kali was associated with black, the English word
'coal'
(denoting that which is black) stems also from her name via the
intermediate word kol. In the Hebrew tradition, Bath-Kol (a Kali
counterpart) was called the Daughter of the Voice, and the voice was
said to originate during a female's puberty. Hence, the womb was
associated with the enigmatic voice and Star Fire was said to be the
oracular Word of the Womb.
The womb was, therefore, the 'utterer', or the uterus.
The Scarlet Women were so called because of their being a direct
source of the priestly Star Fire. They were known in Greek as the hierodulai (sacred women) - a word later transformed (via medieval
French into English) to 'harlot'. In the early Germanic tongue they
were known as horés, which was later Anglicised to 'whores'.
However, the word originally meant, quite simply, 'beloved ones'.
As
explained in good etymological dictionaries, these words were
descriptions of high veneration and were never interchangeable with
such definitions as prostitute or adulteress. Their now common
association was, in fact, a wholly contrived strategy of the
medieval Roman Church in its bid to denigrate the noble status of
the sacred priestess.
The withdrawal of knowledge of the genuine Star Fire tradition from
the public domain occurred when the science of the early adepts and
later Gnostics was stifled by the forgers of historic Christianity.
A certain amount of the original gnosis (knowledge) is preserved in
Talmudic and Rabbinical lore but, in general terms, the mainstream
Jews and Christians did all in their power to distort and destroy
all traces of the ancient art.
In addition to being the Gold of the Gods, the Anunnaki menstruum
was also called the Vehicle of Light, being the ultimate source of
manifestation and, in this regard, it was directly equated with the
mystical Waters of Creation - the flow of eternal wisdom. It was for
this reason that the Rosi-Crucis (Cup of the Waters) became the
Mark
of Cain and the subsequent emblem of the kingly succession.
It was
said that the Light remained quite dormant in a spiritually unawakened person, but that it could be awakened and motivated by
the spiritual energy of self-will and by constant self-enquiry. This
is not an obvious mental process, but a truly thought-free
consciousness: a formless plain of pure being or knowingness.
It was this very concept of self-completeness which posed the
ultimate problem for Enlil-Jehovah. In contrast, his brother
Enki
knew that humans who partook of the Tree of Knowledge (the Anunnaki
wisdom) and of the Plant of Birth (the Anunnaki Star Fire) could
themselves become almost like gods.
Even Jehovah was said to have
recognized this and Genesis states that when Adam had taken the
fruit of the Tree, Jehovah said, 'Behold, the man is become as one
of us'.
Enki, the wise guardian of the Tree of Knowledge, also had another
name in the Hebrew tradition, wherein he was called Samael (Sama-El)
because he was the designated Lord of Sama in Northern Mesopotamia.
The teachings of the mystery schools were very specific about the
Trees of Life and Knowledge, and they emulated the wisdom of Enki
himself, maintaining:
Nothing is obtained simply by wanting and nothing is achieved by
relinquishing responsibility to a higher authority. Belief is the
act of be-living, for to be live is to believe, and will is the
ultimate medium of the self.
The Sumerian annals relate that Cain's son,
King Etāna, partook of
the Plant of Birth in order to father his own son and heir,
King Baali, while the Plant of Birth was itself associated with
individual longevity and the office of kingship.
It was, in
practice, related to Star Fire and to pineal gland activity, and
partaking from the Plant of Birth was the ritual of ingesting the
Star Fire: the Anunnaki female essence, which they
called the 'nectar of supreme excellence'.
In this regard, the Anunnaki flow-er (the flower or lily) was held
to be the cup-bearer: the transmitter of the rich food of the
matrix. In this capacity, she was called the Rose of Sharon
(Sha-ra-on). This derives from the word Sha, meaning Orbit, along
with the words Ra and On, relating to the ultimate Temple of Light.
Hence, she was the Rose of the Orbit of Light. The significance of
this highly venerated station is actually made apparent in the
Bible's esoteric Song of Solomon, wherein the Messianic bride
proclaims, 'I am the rose of Sharon and the lily of the valleys'.
A Star Fire recipient King was considered to have become qualified
for kingship when he reached a predestined state of enlightened
consciousness - a state when his aptitudes for wisdom and leadership
had been enhanced to a realm of kingship called the Malkū. It was
from this Mesopotamian word that the Hebrews derived their words
malchus (king) and malkhut (kingdom).
Only in very recent times have medical scientists identified the
hormonal secretion of the pineal gland. It was finally isolated in
1968 and the essence was called melatonin, which means 'night-worker' (from the Greek melos, meaning
'black', and
tosos,
meaning 'labour'). Those with a high melatonin output react strongly
against sunlight, which affects their mental capability. They are
essentially night operatives and melatonin is called the 'hormone of
darkness', being produced only at night or out of sunlight.
Exposure
to an excess of sunlight actually makes the pineal gland smaller and
lessens spiritual awareness, whereas darkness and high pineal
activity enhance the keen intuitive knowledge of the subtle mind,
while reducing the stress factor.
Melatonin enhances and boosts the body's immune system, and those
with high pineal secretion are less likely to develop cancerous
diseases. High melatonin production heightens energy, stamina and
physical tolerance levels. It is also directly related to sleep
patterns, keeping the body temperately regulated with properties
that operate through the cardiovascular system.
Melatonin is, in
fact, the body's most potent and effective antioxidant and it has
positive mental and physical anti-ageing properties.
This valuable
hormone is manufactured by the pineal gland through activating a
chemical messenger called serotonin, which transmits nerve impulses
across chromosome-pairs at a point called meiosis. This is the
moment when the cell nuclei are divided and the chromosomes are
halved, to eventually be combined with other half-sets upon
fertilization.
Pine-resin was long identified with pineal secretion and was used to
make frankincense (the incense of priesthood). Gold, on the other
hand, was a traditional symbol of kingship. Hence, gold and
frankincense were the traditional substances of the priest-kings of
the Messianic line, along with myrrh (a gum resin used as a medical
sedative), which was symbolic of death. In the ancient world, higher
knowledge was identified as daäth (from which comes the word
death).
Indeed, the New Testament describes that these three substances,
gold, frankincense and myrrh, were presented to Jesus by the Magi,
thereby identifying him, beyond doubt, as a hereditary priest-king
of the Dragon succession.
Yogic teachers suggest that the pineal gland (which they call the
Third Eye, or the Eye of Wisdom) is significant in the process of
becoming aware, for it is the ultimate source of the Light.
Illuminists and other Rosicrucian adepts have long referred to the
pineal as the secret ayin - an ancient word for eye.
Interestingly,
Enki-Samael was the designated Lord of the Sacred Eye.
It is said that a truly spiritual person can automatically perceive
with the Third Eye (the subtle eye of insight), rather than be duped
by mundane eyes which reveal only physical presences. Such presences
are defined by their place within arbitrary time, but to pineal
graduates there is no time to calculate for they live in a dimension
where time and space are of little consequence.
And so the Cainite kings of Mesopotamia (the first Dragon Lords of
the Messianic bloodline) while already being of high Anunnaki
substance, were fed with Anunnaki Star Fire to increase their
perception, awareness, and intuition. Consequently, they became
masters of knowingness - almost like gods themselves.
At the same
time, their stamina levels and immune systems were dramatically
strengthened so that the anti-ageing properties of the regularly
ingested hormonal secretions facilitated extraordinary life-spans.
In addition to the Star Fire ritual, the Bloodline kings were also
said to have been nourished with the milk of the Goddess, and it
would appear that this contained an enzyme that was itself conducive
to active longevity. Today's genetic researchers call this enzyme
Telomerase. As recently reported in the Science Journal (Vol 279 -
16 January 1998), corporate studies and those of the University of
Texas Southwestern Medical Center, have determined that telomerase
has unique anti-ageing properties.
Healthy body cells are programmed to divide many times during a
lifetime, but this process of division and replication is finite, so
that a non-dividing state is ultimately achieved. This is a crucial
factor of ageing. The division potential is controlled by caps at
the end of DNA strands (rather like the plastic tips on shoelaces).
These caps are the telomeres and, as each cell divides, a piece of
telomere is lost. The dividing process ceases when the telomeres
have shortened to an optimum and critical length, subsequent to
which there is no further cell replication and all that follows is
deterioration.
Laboratory experiments with tissue samples have now shown that an
application of the genetic enzyme telomerase can prevent telomere
shortening upon cell division and replication. Hence, body cells can
continue to divide way beyond their naturally restricted programming
- just as do cancer cells which achieve immortality through being
rich in telomerase.
Telomerase is not usually expressed in normal body tissue but, apart
from being present in malignant tumours, it is also apparent in
reproductive cells. It seems, therefore, that within our DNA
structure is the genetic ability to produce this anti-ageing enzyme,
but that the potential has somehow been switched-off and lies
dormant. It probably exists within those aspects of our DNA which
scientists currently refer to as 'junk'.
In the canonical Bible, we are told that, during the lifetimes of
Noah and his sons, Jehovah issued the edict which forbade the
ingesting of blood - at least this was the time-frame applied to the
edict by the Old Testament compilers in the 6th century BC. It is
unlikely, however, that this was the correct time-frame, for at that
stage Enlil-Jehovah would have had no such final authority over
Anu,
Enki and the Grand Assembly of the Anunnaki.
Nevertheless, it is
apparent that, from that time, the given ages of the patriarchal
strain begin to diminish quite considerably, so that from the days
of Abraham and Isaac we are presented, in the main, with rather more
normal life-spans. In contrast, however, the life-spans of the
Sumerian kings in descent from Cain and Etāna continued at a
generally high level.
What we do know beyond doubt is that, whatever the realities of the
edict and its chronology, a major change in the Star Fire practice
became necessary in about 1960 BC. This was when the Bible tells us
that Abraham and his family moved northward from Ur of the Chaldees
(the capital of Sumer) to Haran in the kingdom of Mari, before
turning westward into Canaan.
Contemporary historical texts record
that Ur was sacked by the King of nearby Elam soon after 2000 BC
and, although the city was rebuilt, the new power centre was
established at Haran. But Haran was not just the name of a
flourishing city, it was the name of Abraham's brother (the father
of Lot).
Existing documents (discovered in 1934) also reveal that
other cities in Mesopotamia were similarly named in accordance with
Abraham's forebears - cities such as Terah (Abraham's father), Nahor
(Terah's father), Serug (Nahor's father), and Peleg (Serug's
grandfather).
Quite apparently, in line with all the Sumerian evidence which
supports the kingly line from Cain, these lately discovered reports
confirm that the immediate family of Abraham (in the succession
after Noah) were also great commissioners of the region in general.
Clearly, the patriarchs represented no ordinary family, but
constituted a very powerful dynasty.
But why would such a
long-standing heritage of prominence and renown come to an abrupt
end and force Abraham out of Mesopotamia into Canaan? The answer is
to be found in clay tablets which can be dated to about 1960 BC.
They detail that, at that time, everything changed in the hitherto
sacred land of Sumer when invaders came in from all sides.
They were
Akkadians from the north, Amorites from Syria and Elamites from
Persia.
The text continues:
When they overthrew, when order they destroyed. Then like a deluge
all things together consumed. Whereunto, Oh Sumer! did they change
thee? The Sacred Dynasty from the Temple they exiled.
It was at this stage of Sumerian history that the empire fell and
Abraham was forced to flee northward from the city of Ur. But what
had happened to
the Anunnaki: the Grand Assembly of gods who had
established everything?
Once more, the text continues:
Ur is destroyed, bitter is its lament. The country's blood now fills
its holes like hot bronze in a mould. Bodies dissolve like fat in
the sun. Our temple is destroyed. Smoke lies on our cities like a
shroud. The gods have abandoned us like migrating birds.
In historical terms, this total collapse of the Sumerian empire
follows the founding of Babylon by King Ur-Baba in about 2000 BC.
Indeed, the story of the Tower of Babel, and the resultant wrath of
Jehovah precisely fits the time-frame of the Sumerians' own
abandonment by the Anunnaki.
The story in Genesis relates that the people, who were hitherto said
by Jehovah to be 'very good', were severely punished because of a
strange transgression which had not previously been ruled upon. The
apparent transgression was that they all spoke the same language -
and the unique language which they all spoke was, of course,
Sumerian: the first comprehensively written language on earth.
For a reason which is not made clear in the Bible, the Genesis text
explains that Jehovah was not happy about the Tower of Babel - and
so he 'did come down, and did confound the language of all the
earth'. The Sumerian historical documents tell much the same story,
except that the confounding of language is far better explained by
the hordes of foreign invaders who came into the region.
It
transpires that this invasion was the direct result of friction
among the Anunnaki, for at Anu's retirement from the Grand Assembly
his elder son Enlil-Jehovah assumed the presidency. He proclaimed
that he was master of all the Earth, although his brother Enki-Samael
could retain sovereignty of the seas.
Enki was not at all happy about his brother's claim because,
although Enlil was the elder of the two, his mother (Ki) was their
father Anu's junior sister, whereas Enki's mother (Antu) was the
senior sister.
True kingship, claimed Enki, progressed as a
matrilinear institution through the female line, and by this right
of descent Enki maintained that he was the firstborn of the royal
succession:
I am Enki - he stated - the great brother of the gods. I am he who
has been born as the first son of the divine Anu.
As a result, the people of Babylon announced their allegiance to
Enki and his son Marduk, which proved unacceptable to
Enlil-Jehovah.
Having lost his popularity, he opened the gates of Sumer to let in
invaders from the surrounding nations. The scribes recorded that he
brought about the great and terrible storm which caused the
annihilation of all the Sumerian culture, so that their language was
no longer predominant and there was a great confusion of tongues.
All the work which had been accomplished in building up a unique
civilization over thousands of years was destroyed in one fell swoop
by Enlil-Jehovah simply because he would not share authority with
his brother Enki. The records confirm that, at that moment in
Sumerian history, the Grand Assembly of the Anunnaki simply vacated
their seats and departed 'like migrating birds'.
For all that had occurred to the point of Anunnaki departure, an
urgent and significant change in kingly procedure was then necessary
because the Anunnaki Star Fire was no longer available. A substitute
had to be found and, as previously mentioned, the priestly Scarlet
Women had been purpose-bred for this.
However, it was clear that,
however carefully mated, their genetic essence would weaken through
the generations having no further Anunnaki input.
In the event, the creation of a more permanent and versatile
substitute for the Star Fire was not a problem, for this was the
province of a group of previously trained metallurgists whom Enki
had called the Master Craftsmen. The first of these great
metallurgists to be trained had been Tubal-cain the vulcan - a
sixth-generation descendant of Cain, who is remembered today in
modern Freemasonry.
In consideration of the Bible's New Testament, it is of particular
interest to note that Jesus's father, Joseph, was himself recorded
in the early Gospels as being a Master Craftsman. In modern
English-language Bibles, he is described as a carpenter, but this is
a blatant mistranslation.
The word 'carpenter' was wrongly derived
from the Greek ho-tekton (a derivative of the Semitic naggar) which
actually defined a Master of the Craft (or Master Craftsman). Joseph
was, therefore, not a wood-worker, but a learned alchemical
metallurgist in the manner of his ancestral forebears.
In the Old Testament book of Exodus, at the time of Moses, we are
introduced to a certain Bezaleel (the son of Uri Ben Hur) who is
said to have been filled with the spirit of the Elohim (the
Anunnaki) in wisdom, understanding and knowledge. We learn,
furthermore, that Bezaleel was a skilled goldsmith and Master
Craftsman who was placed in overall charge of building the
Tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant.
In detailing how Bezaleel should manufacture various crowns, rings,
bowls and a candlestick - all of pure gold - the Bible text adds to
the list something called the 'shewbread' of the Covenant and,
without further explanation, the deed is seen to be done.
Although the word 'covenant' has come to be identified with
contractual agreements, it originally meant 'to eat bread with', and
it is pertinent to note that the Christian Lord's Prayer (which was
itself transposed from an Egyptian equivalent) specifies, 'Give us
this day our daily bread'.
This is often taken to relate to
sustenance in general terms, but in the original tradition the
reference was more specifically directed to the enigmatic shewbread
- the golden bread of Bezaleel.
The book of Leviticus also refers to the shewbread, stating:
'And
thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof ... And
thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row".
The use of the word 'flour'
in English translations is actually incorrect and the word 'powder' would be more accurate.
The records of the mystery schools
cite rather more precisely that shewbread was made with the
white
powder of gold, which is especially significant because it is stated
in Exodus that Moses took the golden calf which the Israelites had
made, 'and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to a powder'.
In this instance, the correct word 'powder' is used - but firing
gold does not, of course, produce powder; it actually produces
molten gold. So what was this magical white powder? Is there a way
of using heat to transform metallic gold into a white powder which
is ingestible and beneficial?
Indeed there is, and it is here that
the foremost alchemical principle of the Master Craftsmen was
applied: 'To make gold, you must take gold'.
Gold is the most noble of metals and was always representative of
Truth. Through the regular use of Anunnaki Star Fire (the Gold of
the Gods) the recipients had been moved into realms of heightened
awareness and consciousness because of its inherent melatonin and
serotonin.
This was the realm of advanced enlightenment which was called the
Plane of Sharon and the Star Fire gold was deemed to be the ultimate
route to the Light. Hence, the heavy, mundane person (lead) could be
elevated to a heightened state of awareness (perceived as gold), and
this was the root of all alchemical lore thereafter.
The shewbread (or as the Egyptians called it, scheffa-food) was a
traditional entitlement of the Israelite and Egyptian Messiahs, for
the early pharaohs were themselves fully consecrated priest-kings of
the Grail bloodline, having descended through King Nimrod in the Cainite succession.
In ancient Egypt, the scheffa-food was always depicted as a
conical
cake. This metallic bread was used to feed the Light
body, as
against the physical body, and the Light body (the Ka) was deemed to
be the consciousness.
As far back as 2200 BC, the pharaohs were
using this supplement to enhance their pituitary and pineal
activity, thereby heightening their perception, awareness and
intuition - but only the metallurgical adepts of the mystery schools
(the Master Craftsmen of the Dragon Court) knew the secret of its
manufacture.
In the
Egyptian Book of the Dead (the oldest complete book in the
world), the pharaoh in search of ultimate food of enlightenment
asks, at every stage of his journey, the single overriding question,
'What is it?' - a question which in the Hebrew language (as
explained in The Antiquities of the Jews) was asked by the single
word: Manna?
When the Ark of the Covenant was completed, Aaron was said to have
placed an omer of manna into the Ark. This sacred manna was commonly
associated with a mystical form of bread: the shewbread or, as it
was called in Tubal-cain's Mesopotamia, the shem-an-na.
At this
point, we come to a particularly important definition of the shewbread
for, according to the Master Craftsmen, this conically-shaped (or
shem-shaped) food was made of 'highward
fire-stone'.
In the New Testament book of the Revelation it is related:
To him that overcometh, I will give to eat of the hidden manna. And
will give him a white stone.
Before investigating the precise nature of the
white stone of the shem-an-na (the bread made from the white powder of alchemical
gold), it is worth considering the famous statue of Priest-king
Melchizedek at Chartres Cathedral in France.
The statue portrays
Melchizedek with a cup containing a stone in representation of the
bread and wine which he apparently offered to Abraham, according to
the book of Genesis.
The wine, as we know, was emblematic of the
sacred Star Fire (just as Communion wine represents the Messianic
blood today), but the true importance of the imagery is that the
bread/stone is held within the cup, thereby signifying that Star
Fire was replaced by a substitute nourishment at the very time of
Melchizedek and Abraham. This substitute was made from shem-an-na -
the
white powder of gold, which the
Mesopotamians called 'highward
fire-stone'.
The object of the substitute was very straightforward. Instead of
feeding the recipient with a direct hormonal supplement, the powder
had its effect on the endocrinal system (particularly on the
pineal
gland), thereby causing the recipient to manufacture his own super
high levels of hormones such as melatonin.
In the famous Middle-Age
Grail romance of Parzival, by Wolfram von Eschenbach, it is said of
the Temple knights of Grail Castle:
They live by virtue of a stone most pure. If you do not know its
name, now learn: it is called lapis exilis. By the power of the
stone the phoenix is burned to ashes. But the ashes speedily restore
it to life.
The phoenix thus moults, and thereupon gives out a bright light, so
that it is as beautiful as before.
Many have wondered about the name lapis exilis because it appears to
be a play on words, combining two elements.
Firstly, it is lapis ex caelis
- meaning 'stone from the heavens'. Secondly, it is
lapis
elixir - the Philosophers' Stone by which base elements are
transformed to higher states of being. Either way, or both, it
relates directly to the highward fire-stone - the shem-an-na of the
exotic Star Fire substitute.
The key to the Parzival allegory lies in the description that the
phoenix is 'burned to ashes', but from those very ashes comes the
great enlightenment. So, what exactly is a phoenix? It is a mythical
bird, one might answer - but this would be quite wrong. The word
'phoenix' is far older than the bennu-bird mythology and it is, in
fact, ancient Greco-Phoenician. Phoenix means 'crimson'
or 'red-gold'.
An old Alexandrian alchemical text makes particular mention of the
weight of the fire-stone - which it calls the Stone of Paradise. It
states that, 'when placed in the scales, the stone can outweigh its
quantity of gold, but when it is transposed to dust, even a feather
will tip the scales against it'. In terms of a mathematical formula,
this was written as: 0 = (+1) + (-1).
This appears to be a very
straightforward sum at first glance, because (+1) + (-1) does indeed
equal '0'. But when applied to physical matter it is actually an
impossibility because it relies upon using a positive and an
equivalent negative to produce nothing.
The moment one has a positive piece of something it is not possible
to add an equivalent negative of that something to produce nothing.
At best, one could move the positive something out of immediate
sight - but it would still exist and would, therefore, not be
nothing.
The only way to turn something into nothing as far as the
material field is concerned is to translate the something into
another dimension so that it physically disappears from the mundane
environment. If that process is achieved then the proof of
achievement would lie in the fact that its weight also disappears.
What then is it that can outweigh itself, but can also underweight
itself and become nothing? What then is it that can be gold, but can
be fired and transposed to dust? It is the Phoenix: the red-gold
that will fire to ashes, but will then be restored to enlightenment.
It is the golden calf that Moses burned to a powder. It is the
highward fire-stone of the shem-an-na - and the Sumerian records
indicate that this was not made of stone at all, but of shining
metal.
In the alchemical tradition, the Philosophers' Stone is said to be
that which translates base elements into gold. This is deemed to be
the case in both the metallurgical sense and in the spiritual sense
of higher enlightenment.
In the physical sense, however, we must
return to the oldest of all alchemical rules of the earliest mystery
school - and that is:
'To make gold, you must take gold'.
Hence, it
is determined that there are two distinctly separate forms of
physical gold:
the straightforward metal as we know it and a much
higher state of gold - that is gold in a different dimension of
perceived matter.
This is the white powder of gold: the hidden
manna, whose secret manufacture was known only to the Master
Craftsmen.
So, what precisely is the 'highward' state which converts gold into
a sweet-tasting impalpable white powder? It is that which modern
science now calls the 'high-spin' state.
A normal atom has around it
a screening potential - a positive screening produced by the
nucleus. The majority of electrons going round the nucleus are
within this screening potential, except for the very outer
electrons. However, the nucleus goes to the high-spin state when the
positive screening potential expands to bring all of the electrons
under the control of the nucleus.
Electrons normally travel around the nucleus in pairs - a
forward-spin electron and a reverse-spin electron - but when these
come under the influence of a high-spin nucleus all the forward-spin
electrons become correlated with the reverse-spin electrons. When
perfectly correlated, the electrons turn to pure white light and it
is quite impossible for the individual atoms in the high-spin
substance to link together.
Hence, they cannot reform as metal and
the whole remains simply an impalpable, monatomic white powder.
A recently conducted experiment in the USA made apparent the effect
of the mystical white light in open-air conditions, without the
controls of vacuums and inert gasses necessary for contained
results.
In this test the blaze was equivalent to many tens of
thousands of flash-bulbs. It was, in effect, a explosion, but there
was absolutely no blast and an unsupported pencil, which had been
stood on end within the explosion, was left standing upright and
unharmed afterwards.
This is wholly reminiscent of the story of
Moses and the burning bush as related in Exodus:
'And he looked,
and, behold, the bush burned without fire, and the bush was not
consumed'.
The truly unusual thing about this white powder is that, through
various applied procedures, its weight will rise and fall to
hundreds of percent above its optimum weight, down to less than
absolutely nothing.
Moreover, its optimum weight is actually 56% of
the metal weight from which it was transmuted. So, where does the
other 44% go? It becomes nothing but pure white light and translates
to another dimension beyond the physical plane.
Another feature of the shem-an-na is that even its 56% substance
(that is the remaining sample excluding the 44% light content) can
be made to disappear completely from sight, moving itself into
another dimension of perceived matter - and when this happens, its
weight similarly disappears.
By virtue of such testing, it has been discovered that not only is
the powder of the highward fire-stone capable of raising human
consciousness, but it is also a monatomic superconductor with no
gravitational attraction.
One of the great researchers into gravity
from the 1960s has been the Russian physicist Andrei Sakharov, and
the mathematics for Sakharov's Theory (based on gravity as a
zero-point) were published by
Hal Puthoff of the
Institute of
Advanced Studies in 1989 (Physical Review A - volume 39, no. 5, 1
March).
With regard to the monatomic white powder, Puthoff has made
the point that because gravity determines space-time, then the
powder is capable of bending space-time. It is 'exotic matter', he
explained, with a gravitational attraction of less than zero.
Quite apart from gold, it is now known that the platinum-group
metals, iridium and rhodium (in the monatomic high-spin state), also
have anti-ageing properties, while ruthenium and platinum compounds
interact with DNA and the cellular body. In the Scientific American
journal of May 1995, the effect of ruthenium was discussed in
relation to human DNA, and it was pointed out that when single
ruthenium atoms are placed at each end of double-helix DNA, it
becomes 10,000 times more conductive.
Similarly, the Platinum Metals
Review features regular articles concerning the use of platinum,
iridium and ruthenium in the treatment of cancers, which are caused
through the abnormal and uncontrolled division of body cells.
When a
DNA state is altered, as in the case of a cancer, the application of
a platinum compound will resonate with the deformed cell, causing
the DNA to relax thoroughly and become corrected. Such treatment
involves no amputation surgery; it does not destroy surrounding
tissue with radiation, nor kill the immune system as does chemotherapy. It is a straightforward cure which actually corrects
altered cells.
It is of particular significance that, irrespective of all today's
costly and extensive research, the secrets of the highward
fire-stone were known to our ancestors many thousands of years ago,
although only just being rediscovered. To put things into
perspective in this regard, it is important to recognize that just
about everything we now know about the life and civilizations of the
distant BC years has been learned since the late 1800s.
Prior to
that, the Old Testament was one of very few documents of record, but
the Old Testament was never intended to be an accurate reporting of
history; it was actually a book of scripture designed to underpin a
growing religious movement.
To some extent, just like the scriptures of other religions, the
Hebrew writings were based upon mythological tradition, but since
the inherent stories were never found until recently in any other
documented form, the Old Testament has, for countless centuries,
been treated as if it were an absolute factual truth.
And so, the
mythology became designated as history by governing and educational
establishments, and it has been taught as such in schools and
churches for the longest time.
Now we have a vast amount of original literature, enabling us to be
far better informed, for any number of explanatory documents have
been unearthed - documents pre-dating the original writing of
Genesis by up to 2000 years. One would expect such discoveries to be
welcomed with enthusiasm, but this has not been the case.
Instead,
they have posed severe problems and are regarded not as beneficial
revelations, but as threats. What do they threaten? They threaten to
undermine the one-time mythology that has been erroneously dubbed as
history. How does the establishment cope with this threat? It clings
on tight to the contrived history, and declares that the first-hand
documents of history are mythological!
Between the 1850s and the 1930s, records which had been hidden for
countless lifetimes beneath the windswept desert sands suddenly
appeared, bearing the names of such well-known characters as
Abraham, Esau, Israel, Heber, Nahor, Terah and others from the
Bible. These were written during the lifetimes of these men or soon
after, whereas the books of the Old Testament were compiled over
1000 years later. However, one-by-one, these documents have been
classified as mythology.
Why? Because they tell a very different
story to that which is taught from the Bible.
By the 1880s, the governing establishments of Christendom were
dreading the very word archaeologist. As a result, archaeological
digs were brought under strict control, with their funding and
undertakings to be approved by newly designated authorities. One of
these, the Egypt Exploration Fund, was established in Britain in
1891, and on the very first page of its Memorandum and Articles of
Association, it is stated that the Fund's objective is to promote
excavation work 'for the purpose of elucidating or illustrating the
Old Testament narrative'.
In short, this meant that if something was
found which could be used to support the scriptural teaching, then
the public would be informed. Anything which did not support the
Church interpretation of the Bible was not destined to see the light
in the public domain.
It is now relevant to take a look at one of the monumental finds
from that era - a discovery about which very little is known to
people at large. In fact, it is probably the most important biblical
discovery ever made and it has stunning implications far beyond the
discovery itself - for this is the ultimate story of the phoenix and
the fire-stone.
Within the book of Exodus a significant biblical mountain is named.
It sits in the extensive range of the Sinai peninsular - an upturned
triangular land-mass which lies above the Red Sea between the Gulfs
of Suez and Aqabah. In the Old Testament, the mountain is firstly
called Mount Horeb; then it is called Mount Sinai and is
subsequently called Horeb again as the story progresses.
The story
is, of course, that of Moses and the Israelite exodus from Egypt.
This was the mountain upon which, according to Exodus, Moses saw the
burning bush; the mountain where he talked with Jehovah and the
place where he received the Ten Commandments and the Tables of
Testimony.
Something which should be recognized at this stage is that, at the
time of Moses (about 1350 BC), there was no mountain called Mount
Sinai. There was no mountain by that name even in the days of Jesus
- nor even for another 300 years.
It should also be remembered that
the Old Testament which is familiar to us today stems from a
10th-century Hebrew text and is, therefore, 600 years younger even
than the canonical New Testament compiled in the 4th century.
The mountain now generally known as Mount Sinai sits in the south of
the peninsular - quite near to the bottom point of the upturned
triangle - and it was given its name in the 4th century by a mission
of Greek Christian monks 1700 years after the time of Moses. It is
now sometimes called Gebel Musa (or Mount of Moses) and there is
still a Christian retreat there called St Catherine's Monastery.
However, this is not the Sinai mountain which the Bible calls Mount Horeb.
The book of Exodus goes into some detail to explain the route taken
by Moses and the Israelites from the Egyptian Nile delta land of
Goshen - down across the wilderness regions of Shur and
Paran in
northern Sinai, to the land of Midian (which is to the north of
present-day Jordan).
From this route it becomes very easy to identify the location of
Mount Horeb, which sits a good deal north of Gebel Musa. The word
Horeb simply means 'desert', and the great desert mountain which
soars to over 2600 feet within a high stone plateau above the Plain
of Paran is today called Serābīt el-Khādim (the Prominence of the
Khādim).
In the late 1890s, the British Egyptologist Sir William Flinders
Petrie, a professor at the University College, London, applied to
the Egypt Exploration Fund to take an expedition into Sinai. By
January 1904, his team had departed and in the March of that year
they took their expedition to the heights of Mount Serābīt.
In the
following year Petrie published the detailed results of his
findings, but added to his report the fact that, to his dismay, this
information would not be made available to the Egypt Exploration
Fund subscribers who would receive only maps and a general outline.
Furthermore, Petrie explained that, from the time of that Sinai
expedition (even though he had taken previously funded teams into
Egypt), his sponsorship by the Fund was terminated - ostensibly
because he had broken the binding rule of the Articles by divulging
something which was contrary to Bible teaching.
He had, in fact,
discovered the great secret of the sacred mountain of Moses - a
secret which not only made sense of the Exodus portrayals, but which
blew the lid totally from their common scriptural interpretation.
What the Bible does not make clear is that Sinai was not a foreign
land to the Egyptians. It was actually regarded as a part of Egypt
and came under pharaonic control. So Moses and the Israelites had
not left Egypt once they were east of the Nile delta - they were
still in Egypt, having the whole Sinai peninsular to cross before
they entered the Palestinian land of Canaan.
During the time of Moses, Sinai came under the control of two
Egyptian officials: the Royal Chancellor and the Royal Messenger.
This was the era of Egypt's 18th dynasty - the dynasty of the
Tuthmosis and Amenhotep pharaohs, along with Akhenaten and
Tutankhamun. The Royal Messenger of those times was an official
called Neby. He was also the mayor and troop commander of Zaru in
the Egyptian delta region of Goshen, where the Israelites had lived
before the exodus.
The position of Royal Chancellor was hereditary in the Hyksos family
of Pa-Nehas, and Panahesy of this family was the official Governor
of Sinai. We know him better from the Bible as Phinehas. He became
one of the first priests of the new Mosaic structure, but had
previously been the Chief Priest at Pharaoh Akhenaten's temple at
Amarna.
In order to understand the root significance of Petrie's discovery,
it is worth making a necessary distinction between the Israelites
and the Hebrews of the Mosaic era. At that time, they were not one
and the same as Bible teaching seems to indicate. The Hebrews were
the family and descendants of Abraham, whose place of residence was,
in the main, Canaan (Palestine).
The Israelites, on the other hand,
were the family and descendants of one of Abraham's grandsons - the
man called Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel. It was his
family alone who had moved into Egypt, and it was their descendants
who eventually returned with Moses to be reunited, after countless
generations, with their fellow Hebrews.
The difference between the strains was, of course, that the
Israelites had long been subjected to the laws and religions of
Egypt, and they knew very little about the customs of their cousins
hundreds of miles away in Canaan. Through more than 400 years they
had been in an environment which supported a whole pantheon of gods
and, although they had developed a One God concept within their own
fraternity, that god was not the Jehovah of the Canaanite Hebrews.
Their god was a faceless entity whom they called, quite simply,
the
Lord. In the Israelite tongue, he was called the Adon. This is one
of the reasons why the names Lord and Jehovah were separately
identified in early texts, even though they were brought under the
wrap of the single God in later times to suit the emergent Jewish
and Christian faiths.
To the Egyptians, the name of this Lord (Adon)
was quite similar, and they called him Aten - from which derived the
name of Pharaoh Akhenaten (Servant of Aten).
So, when Moses and the Israelites made their exodus into Sinai, they
arrived not as worshippers of Jehovah, but of Aten, and it was for
this very reason that they were presented with new laws and
ordinances to bring them into line with the Hebrew culture of their
prospective new homeland.
When Moses and the Israelites left the Egyptian delta, their obvious
route to Canaan would have been directly across the wilderness of
northern Sinai but, instead, they pushed southward into the
difficult high country to spend time at the Horeb mountain of
Serābīt.
This was the anomaly which had long puzzled Petrie and his
team.
Mount Serābīt
What then did the Petrie expedition discover high on the Bible's
holy mountain?
Well, to begin, they found nothing very much, but on
a wide plateau near the summit there were distinct signs of ancient
habitation. Pillars and standing-stones could be seen protruding
above the ground-rubble which had been deposited by wind and
landslides over some 3000 years.
Subsequent to clearing this rubble,
however, the truth of the Bible story emerged and Petrie wrote:
There is no other such monument which makes us regret that it is not
in better preservation. The whole of it was buried, and no one had
any knowledge of it until we cleared the site.
What they found was an enormous Egyptian temple complex. Set within
an enclosure wall was an outer temple built over an expanse of 230
feet (c.70 meters) and this extended outwards from an inner temple
cut within a great cave in the mountainside. From the various
cartouches, carvings and inscriptions it emerged that the temple had
been in use from as far back as the time of Pharaoh Sneferu, who
reigned about 2600 BC and whose immediate successors are reckoned to
have built the pyramids of Gizeh.
The above-ground part of the temple was constructed from sandstone
quarried from the mountain cave, and it contained a series of
adjoined halls, shrines, courts, cubicles and chambers.
Of these,
the key features unearthed were the main Sanctuary, the Shrine of
Kings, the Portico Court, and the Hall of the goddess Hathor to whom
the whole complex was dedicated. All around were pillars and stelae
denoting the Egyptian kings through the ages, with certain pharaohs
such as Tuthmosis III (founder of the Rosicrucian movement in Egypt)
depicted many times on standing-stones and wall reliefs.
The adjoining Cave of Hathor was carved into the natural rock, with
flat inner walls that had been carefully smoothed. In the centre
from about 1820 BC) stood a large upright pillar of Pharaoh
Amenemhet III, the son-in-law of Esau. Also portrayed were his
senior chamberlain and his seal-bearer.
Deep within the cave Petrie
found a limestone stela of pharaoh Ramesses I - a slab upon which Ramesses (who is traditionally reckoned by Egyptologists to have
been an opposer of the Aten cult) surprisingly described
himself as 'The ruler of all that Aten embraces'.
Also found was an Amarna statue-head of Akhenaten's mother,
Queen Tiye of Egypt, with her cartouche set in the crown.
In the courts and halls of the outer temple there were numerous
stone-carved rectangular tanks and circular basins, along with a
variety of curiously shaped bench-tables with recessed fronts and
split-level surfaces.
There were also round tables, trays and
saucers, together with alabaster vases and containers, many of which
were shaped like lotus-flowers.
In addition, the rooms housed a good
collection of glazed plaques, cartouches, scarabs and sacred
ornaments, designed with spirals, diagonal-squares and basket-work.
There were magical wands of an unidentified hard material, while in
the portico were two conical stones of about 6 inches and 9 inches
in height, respectively. The explorers were baffled enough by these,
but they were further confounded by the discovery of a
metallurgist's crucible.
Ever since this discovery, Egyptologists have argued as to why a
crucible would have been necessary in a temple, while at the same
time debating a mysterious substance called mfkzt, which seemed to
be related to the conical stones and which has numerous mentions in
wall and stelae inscriptions.
Some have suggested that mfkzt might
have been copper; many have preferred the idea of turquoise and
others have supposed it was perhaps malachite, but they are all
unsubstantiated guesses and there are no traces of any of these
materials at the site.
Sinai is noted for its turquoise mines, but
if turquoise-mining had been a primary function of the temple
masters over so many centuries, then one would expect to find
turquoise stones in abundance within the tombs of Egypt. However,
such is not the case; hardly any have been found.
Other causes of wonderment have been the innumerable inscribed
references to 'bread', along with the prominent hieroglyph for
'light', found in the Shrine of the Kings. But the discovery which
caused the most bewilderment was the unearthing of something which
was identified as the enigmatic mfkzt to which the 'bread' symbolism
appeared to be related. Laying some inches deep beneath heavy
flagstones in a storeroom was a considerable supply of the finest
pure white, unadulterated powder.
At the time, some suggested that the powder could be a remnant of
copper smelting but, as was quickly pointed out, smelting does not
produce white powder; it leaves a dense black slag.
Moreover, there
is no supply of copper ore within miles of the temple and the old
smelting works are, in any event, apparent in the distant valleys.
Others guessed that the powder was ash from the burning of plants to
produce alkali, but there was no trace whatever of any plant
residue.
For want of any other explanation, it was determined that the white
powder and the conical stones were probably associated with some
form of sacrificial rite, but again it was pointed out that this was
an Egyptian temple and animal sacrifice was not an Egyptian
practice. Moreover, despite sieving and winnowing, there were no
remnants whatever of bones or any other foreign matter to be found
within the mfkzt, which appeared for all the world like a hoard of
sacred talcum-powder.
Some of the mysterious powder was taken back to Britain for analysis
and examination, but no results were ever published. The rest was
left open to the elements after 3000 years to become a victim of the
desert winds. What has become apparent, however, is that this powder
was seemingly identical to the ancient Mesopotamian fire-stone or
shem-an-na - the substance that was made into bread-cakes and used
to feed the Light-bodies of the Babylonian kings and the pharaohs of
Egypt.
This, of course, explains the temple inscriptions denoting
the importance of bread and light, while the white powder (the shem-an-na) has been identified with the sacred manna that Aaron
placed in the Ark of the Covenant.
The book of Exodus relates that the Master Craftsman who made the
original shewbread for Moses in Sinai was Bezaleel, but Bezaleel was
not a baker, he was a noted goldsmith - the very man who made the
golden accoutrements for the Tabernacle and the Ark itself. This
conforms precisely with the function of the priestly Master
Craftsmen in Mesopotamia - the vulcans and metallurgists of Tubal-cain who manufactured the valuable shem-an-na from pure gold.
As for the crucible, the conical stones and the great array of
tanks, tables and equipment which made the Sinai temple appear more
like a gigantic laboratory than a church, it emerges that this is
precisely what it was.
What Petrie had actually found was the alchemical workshop of Akhenaten and of the numerous dynasties of pharaohs before him - a
temple laboratory where the furnace would have roared and smoked in
the production of the sacred fire-stone of the high-spin shem-an-na.
Quite suddenly, the words of Exodus begin to make sense as we read
them again with a wholly new insight:
And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke ... and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.
In Exodus we read that
Moses took the golden calf, which the Israelites had made, and burnt
it in the fire, and ground it to a powder.
This is precisely the process of a shem-an-na furnace and it
is evident that the Egyptian priests of the goddess Hathor had been
working their fire for countless generations before the priests of Aten became involved in the time of Moses.
It was, in fact, Pharaoh Tuthmosis III who had reorganized the
ancient mystery schools of Thoth and founded the Royal School of the
Master Craftsmen at Karnak. They were called the
Great White
Brotherhood because of their preoccupation with a mysterious
white
powder. A branch of this fraternity became especially concerned with
medicines and healing, to become known as the Egyptian Therapeutate.
Then, in much later times, the activities of the Therapeutate were
extended into Palestine - especially into the Judah settlement of
Qumrān, where they flourished as the Essenes.
But, what was so special about the goddess Hathor that she was the
chosen deity of the Sinai priests? Hathor was a paramount nursing
goddess and, as the daughter of Ra, she was said to have given birth
to the sun. She was the originally defined Queen of the West and
Mistress of the Netherworld, to where she was said to carry those
who knew the right spells.
She was the revered goddess of love,
tombs and song - and it was from the milk of Hathor that the
pharaohs were said to gain their divinity, becoming gods in their
own right.
On one of the rock tablets near to the Mount Serābīt cave entrance
is a representation of Tuthmosis IV in the presence of Hathor.
Before him are two offering-stands topped with lotus flowers, and
behind him is a man bearing a conical cake identified as white
bread. Another relief details the mason Ankhib offering two conical
bread-cakes of shem-an-na to the king, and there are similar
portrayals elsewhere in the temple complex.
One of the most
significant perhaps is a depiction of Hathor and Pharaoh Amenhotep
III. The goddess holds a necklace in one hand, while offering the
emblem of life and dominion to the pharaoh with the other. Behind
her is the treasurer Sobekhotep, who holds in readiness a conical
cake of white bread.
Most importantly in this portrayal, however, is
the fact that Treasurer Sobekhotep is described as the 'Overseer of
the secrets of the House of Gold, who brought the noble and precious
stone to his majesty'.
Recent experiments with this amazing white powder of gold have
proven that, under certain conditions, the substance can weigh less
than nothing and can be made to disappear into an unknown dimension.
But, the most interesting quality of the powder is that it can ride
upon the Earth's magnetic field so that, when in a zero-gravity
state, it is capable of transposing its own weightlessness to its
host, thereby facilitating levitational powers.
This host might be a
a straightforward laboratory pan or container, but it could equally
be an enormous block of stone as used in pyramid building. Indeed,
pyramids are, as established by their very name, fire-begotten.
In the secret repository of the King's Chamber, within the Great
Pyramid, the age-old tradition relates that the builders had placed,
'instruments of iron, arms which rust not, glass which might be
bended but not broken, and strange spells'.
But what did the first
explorers find, having tunnelled their way into the sealed chamber?
The only furniture was a lidless, hollowed stone coffer, and it
contained not a body, but a layer of a mysterious powdery substance.
This has been superficially determined to be grains of feldspar and
mica, which are both minerals of the aluminium silicate group.
However, during the course of the recent white powder research, aluminium and silica were two of the constituent elements revealed
by conventional analysis of a granular sample that was known to be a
100% platinum-group compound.
As revealed a few years ago by the pioneering US researcher David
Hudson, standard laboratory testing for elemental constituents is
done by striking a sample with a DC arc for 15 seconds at a
sun-surface heat of 5500ŗ centigrade.
But, with the monatomic white
powder, a continuation of the burn-time way beyond the normal
testing procedure revealed the noble metal of which the substance
truly consisted. It is because of the limitations placed on the
conventional testing sequence that 5% by dry weight of our brain
tissue is said to be carbon, whereas more rigorous analysis reveals
it as the platinum-group metals iridium and rhodium in the high-spin
state.
The King's Chamber was, therefore, apparently contrived as a
superconductor, capable of transporting the pharaoh into another
dimension of space-time - and it was here that his Rite of Passage
was administered in accordance with the
Book of the Dead. The key to
this Right of Passage is defined by a single conical inscription
near the entrance to the Chamber.
This hieroglyphic symbol (the only
verifiable hieroglyph on the whole of the Gizeh plateau - and the
very same as appeared many times at the Sinai mountain temple) reads
quite simply, 'bread'.
The fact is that, although the historical aspects of the Old
Testament are treated and taught from a Hebrew standpoint with an
originally Mesopotamian base, there was a significant Egyptian
impact on the culture which has been strategically ignored.
This
comes to light specifically from the time of the Sinai incident and
proves to be the very reason why the all important
book of Jasher
was excluded from the canon.
It was upon the mountain at Sinai that Jehovah first announced his
presence to Moses. Being an Aten supporter, Moses asked this new
lord and master who he was - and the reply was 'I am that I am',
which in phonetic Hebrew became Yahweh (Jehovah). However, for the
longest time afterwards, the Israelites were not allowed to utter
the name
Jehovah, except for the High Priest who was allowed to
whisper it in private once a year.
The problem was that prayers were
supposed to be said to this new godhead - but how would he know they
were to him if his name was not mentioned?
The Israelite exiles from Egypt knew that Jehovah was not the same
as Aten (their traditional Adon or Lord), and so they presumed he
must be the equivalent of the great State God of Egypt - even if not
one and the same. It was decided, therefore, to add the name of that
State-god to all prayers thereafter, and the name of that god was
Amen. To this day, the name of Amen is still recited at the end of
prayers. Even the well-known Christian Lord's Prayer (as given in
the Gospel of Matthew) was transposed from an Egyptian original
which began: 'Amen, Amen, who art in heaven ...'
As for the famous Ten Commandments, said to have been conveyed to
Moses by God upon the mountain, these too are of Egyptian origin,
deriving directly from Spell Number 125 in the Egyptian Book of the
Dead. They were not new codes of conduct invented for the
Israelites, but were simply newly stated versions of the ritual
confessions of the pharaohs.
For example, the confession
'I have not
killed' was transposed to the decree Thou shalt not kill; 'I have
not stolen' became Thou shalt not steal; 'I have not told lies'
became Thou shalt not bear false witness - and so on.
Not only were the Ten Commandments drawn from Egyptian ritual, but
so too were the Psalms (which are attributed to King David) reworked
from Egyptian hymns. Even the Old Testament book of Proverbs - the
so-called wise words of Solomon - was translated almost verbatim
into Hebrew from the writings of an Egyptian sage called Amenemope.
These are now held at the British Museum, and verse after verse of
the book of Proverbs can be attributed to this Egyptian original. It
has now been discovered that even the writings of Amenemope were
extracted from a far older work called The Wisdom of Ptah-hotep,
which comes from more than 2000 years before the time of Solomon.
In addition to the Book of the Dead and the ancient Wisdom of Ptah-hotep, various other Egyptian texts were used in compiling the
Old Testament. These include the
Pyramid Texts and the Coffin Texts,
from which references to the Egyptian gods were simply transposed to
relate to the Hebrew god Jehovah.
In Bloodline of the Holy Grail it was related that the modern style
of Christianity, which evolved from the Roman Church in the 4th
century, was actually a created hybrid - a religion based on themes
from numerous others including, of course, Judaism. Now it
transpires that Judaism itself was no less of a hybrid in the early
days, being a composite of Egyptian, Canaanite and Mesopotamian
traditions, with the stories, hymns, prayers and rituals of the
various and sundry gods brought together and related to a newly
contrived One God concept.
What is particularly interesting is that, historically, this was not
fully contrived in the time of Abraham, nor even in the later time
of Moses. It did not happen until the 6th century BC, when tens of
thousands of Israelites were held captive by Nebuchadnezzar of
Babylon. Until that time, the Hebrew and Israelite records referred
to any number of gods and goddesses by individual names, and under a
general plural classification of the Elohim.
Through some 500 years from the Captivity, the scriptures existed
only as a series of quite separate writings and it was not until
after the time of Jesus that these were collated into a single
volume. Jesus would himself never have heard of the Old Testament or
the Bible, but the scriptures to which he had access included many
books that were not selected for the compilation that we know today.
Strangely though, some of these are still mentioned in the modern
Bible text as being important to the original culture, including the
enigmatic book of Jasher.
Jasher was the Egyptian-born son of Caleb; he was brother-in-law to
the first Israelite judge Othneil and an uncle of Bezaleel the
Master Craftsman, as well as being the appointed staff-bearer to
Moses. It is generally reckoned that the book of Jasher's position
in the Bible should be between the books of Deuteronomy and Joshua,
but it was sidestepped by the editors because it sheds a very
different light on the sequence of events at Mount Horeb in Sinai.
The familiar Exodus account explains that Jehovah issued
instructions to Moses concerning masters and servants, covetousness, neighbourly behaviour, crime, marriage, morality, and many other
issues including the all-important rule of the Sabbath - along with
the Ten Commandments.
But, in Jasher (which pre-dates the Exodus
writings), these laws and ordinances are not conveyed to Moses by
Jehovah. In fact, Jehovah is not mentioned at all. The new laws,
says the book of Jasher, were communicated to Moses and the
Israelites by Jethro, High Priest of Midian and Lord of the
Mountain.
In effect, Jethro (whose daughter, Zipporah, Moses
married) was the overall governor of the Sinai Temple.
In Canaan, the title Lord (or Lofty One) of the Mountain, was
defined as El Shaddai, and this is particularly significant for, as
previously mentioned, this was precisely the name related to Moses
when he asked the Lord to reveal his identity. The Lord said 'I am
that I am (YHWH); I am he that Abraham called El Shaddai'.
YHWH
became eventually transposed to the name Jehovah but, as related in Jasher (and as confirmed in Exodus when correctly read), this Lord
was not a deiform god at all; he was Jethro the El Shaddai, the
great vulcan and Master Craftsman of the Hathor Temple.
Another very important aspect of the book of Jasher is that it
explains that it was not Moses who was the spiritual leader of the
tribes who left Egypt for Sinai; their spiritual leader and chief
counsellor was Miriam, the half-sister of Moses who receives only
passing mentions in the book of Exodus.
Indeed, as detailed in Jasher, Miriam's position posed such a problem for Moses in his
attempt to create an environment of male dominance that he
imprisoned her - as a result of which the Israelites rose up against
Moses to secure her release.
There is no doubt that, for all the scribal manipulation of old
texts, Miriam (Meryamon of Egypt) emerges outside the canonical
Bible as a key character of the era but, just like Mary Magdalene in
New Testament times, she has been ignored and forgotten by Church
establishments founded as male-dominated institutions.
Of Miriam,
the book of Aaron (credited to Hur, the grandfather of Bezaleel)
relates:
Miriam from hence became the admired of the Hebrews; every tongue
sang of her praise. She taught Israel; she tutored the children of
Jacob and the people called her, by way of eminence, the Teacher.
She studied the good of the nation, and Aaron and the people
harkened unto her. To her the people bowed; to her the afflicted
came.
The true relevance of Miriam, however, is that she was a recognized
Dragon Queen of the matrilinear Grail bloodline.
It was primarily
from her that the dynastic line ensued to culminate in the Royal
House of David, which owes its kingly origin to Miriam's pharaonic
descent, rather than to any patriarchal heritage from Abraham, as we
are generally led to believe.
In the context of this investigation, we have stepped beyond the
bounds of the Bible to witness the alchemical and scientific process
which facilitated the Genesis of the Grail Kings. This line of
succession (from Cain and the Mesopotamian dynasts, through the
early pharaohs of Egypt, to King David and onward to Jesus)
was purpose-bred to be the earthly purveyors of the Light.
They were the true 'sons of the gods', who were fed firstly on Anunnaki Star Fire
from about 3800 BC and, subsequently, on high-spin metal supplements
from abut 2000 BC. In short, they were bred to be leaders of
humankind and they were physically and spiritually maintained in the highward state - the ultimate dimension of the missing 44% - the
dimension of the Orbit of Light - the Plane of Sharon.
Only during the past 150 years or so, and more specifically during
the past 80 years, have the great storehouses of Egyptian,
Mesopotamian, Syrian and Canaanite record been unearthed from
beneath the desert sands. First-hand documentary evidence from
before Bible times has now emerged on stone, clay, parchment and
papyrus - tens of thousands of documents which bear witness to a far
more exciting history than we were ever told.
Had these records been available throughout the generations, the
concept of a particular race enjoying a single divine revelation
would never have arisen and the exclusivity of Jehovah, which has
blinded us for the longest time (setting us in warlike fashion
against those of other faiths who follow their own traditions),
would never have taken such an arrogant hold.
Gradually, as new discoveries are made, it is evident that we are
now emerging from the darkness of our preconceived, but unfounded,
notions.
Even so, the centuries of Church-led indoctrination make it
very difficult to discard the restrictive dogma of inbred third-hand
tradition in favour of a greater enlightenment from those who were
there at the time.
The truly inspiring prospect is that the learning curve has still
not ended. Just as a single glacier is but a continuation of age-old
activity, so too are the ancient wisdoms that now fall to us one by
one - with each new facet of learning ready to be stacked upon the
former knowledge.
Fortunately, the dawn of consciousness is already behind us and,
although some will choose to look backwards beyond its veil, many
will step with vigor into the new millennium to witness a bright
new sunrise - a revelation of unbounded possibility, and a
restoration of our true universal inheritance.
