THE COMMAND BASE OF
HEAVEN
Arjuna is the Veda's version of Enoch of the Bible who visited God.
Rama would now himself return to the earth, a planet he certainly
did not favor with its memories of old. The parallel to Arjuna's
journey and that of gnostic texts is quite startling, all revealing
their common source.
The Bible lists Enoch as the one who,
"walked
with God. Then he was no more because God took him envoy."
(Gen 5:21
-24)
...and that is all, which is a shame as it would have revealed
more to the Bible's story structure.
We should return first to the Veda version already commenced.
As
Rama's command ship lowered, the "chariot of the king of the Gods."1 Arjuna waited impatiently looking above him when suddenly it
lifted, "darkness from the sky and shredding the clouds, it filed
all of space with a roar like the thunder of the monsoon cloud," (my
goodness, but they made the funniest 'chariots' back then!) piloted
by one Matali.
The,
"resplendent chariot, held swords, terrible
spears, clubs of ghastly aspect, missiles of divine power, and
lustrous lightning flashes, as well as thunderbolts, wheeled
battering rams, bellows that raised gales, loud like peacock and
thunder cloud; Giant Snakes it carried, with fiery mouths, most
terrifying, tall like white clouds and hard like mountains; ten
thousand bay horses, fast as the wind, drew this eye-fetching,
divine, magic chariot. On it he saw the beautiful dork-blue flag
Vaijayanta, dark like the blue lotus, and the gold-ornamented flag
most."
Giant snakes with fiery mouths tall like white clouds -
missiles?
Their emblems of the winged horses graced its sides while
the dark blue flag represented the vastness of space and what they
considered a male color. The flags were always well represented. Matali descended in a suit of "twice-melted" gold and Arjuna thought
he was God in his excitement, his father, which he joked about, as
common people referred to his father as a deity.
Matali then bowed
to him saying.
"Bhoh bhoh, son of Sokra! The illustrious Sakra
desires to see you! Quickly mount this honored chariot of Indra.
That greatest of the Gods, the God of the Hundred Sacrifices, your
own father, has told me, 'The Thirty Celestials must see Kunti's son
here on his arrival!' Sakra himself, surrounded by Gods and the
hosts of seers, and by Gandhanas and Apsaras, is waiting anxiously
to see you. Ascend with me from this world to the world of the Gods
at the behest of the Chastiser of Paka: you will come back after you
have obtained weapons."
Looks as if the Bible's Enoch was hiding quite a lot! It was found
however, that Arjuna was harboring bacteria and toxins and for that
reason he could not enter the "chariot."
He then bathed himself
according to the "rules and precepts" and then bade Jerusalem
farewell,
"Mount Mandora farewell;
Mountain, thou art always the
refuge of the good who practice the Law, the hermits of holy deeds,
who seek out the road that leads to heaven, it is by thy grace,
Mountain, that brahmins, barons, and commoners attain to heaven and
devoid of pain walk with the Gods.
King of mountains, great peak
refuge of hermits, treasury of sacred places, I must go, farewell; I
have happily lived on thee! Many are the peaks of thine that I have
seen, the valleys, rivers, and springs, and thy very holy places."
The high hills and mountains of this area were excellent for them to
launch and land their crafts from.
Arjuna then mounted the chariot,
"brilliant like the sun" and "on this sun-like, divine,
wonder-working chariot the wise scion of Kuru flew joyously upward."
From here Arjuna saw the immensity of the Nibiruian star fleet which
he had seen last when a very young lad.
This is one of the most
graphic descriptions of outer space and the earth below and the
airships used. It seemed to be a celestial rest camp of sorts and
training bases on permanent space stations.
As in the gnostic texts,
he passes by the different branches or "worlds" of the kings until
he came to Amaravafi,
"the city of Indra." Here were, "God's
chariots which can go everywhere, stationed by the thousands and
moving by the myriads."
It was further said that,
"While becoming
invisible to the mortals who walk on earth, he saw wondrous airborne
chariots by the thousands. No sun shone there, or moon, or fire, but
they shone with a light of their own acquired by their merits. Those
lights that are seen as the stars look tiny like oil flames because
of the distance, but they are very large.
The Pandava saw them
bright and beautiful, burning on their own hearths with a fire of
their own. These are the perfected royal seers, the heroes cut down
in war, who, having won heaven with their austerities, gather in
hundreds of groups. So do thousands of Gandhaivas with a glow like
the sun's or the fire's, and of Guhyakas and seers and the hosts of
Asparas."
Note they know the difference between the stars and the
'chariots.' From here were those of "saintly deeds" and only those
who "maintained the fires" that is, those who properly assisted the
launches.
If you were averse to war, you were not allowed here which
can be fairly deduced by the Nibiruian policy to fight to the utmost
and never retreat. No liquor was allowed, nor meat, as food here had
to be of the purest given the environment, and a strong mental
restraint was needed at all times to exact their duties. (I am
afraid the space shuttle would never make it with their coffee and
coca-colas!) Music is often heard, of "divine instruments" just as
in gnostic texts, which was tribute music but also not to be
confused with the hum of their machinery.
However, conches and drums
greeted Arjuna on the "wide road of the stars," the "Path of the
Gods."
He was greeted tumultuously as he traveled on it as a son of
God. Protocol was recognized and he then "beheld the king of Gods,
the enemy-taking God of the Hundred Sacrifices." He was taken to
Rama's throne and Sakra (Rama) embraced him, and kissed him on the
head while everyone bowed.
How happy he was to see his son whom he
had not seen for sometime. He touched Arjuna's face and stroked his
long arms with one hand badly scarred from his duel's of old from
holding the "thunderbolt," and if scenes from "Star Wars" rings a
bell, you have got it, for these were laser swords used in their
personal duels.
He could not take his eyes off his son and like a Nibiruian, rarely smiles. Sakra, "divined everyone's thoughts" as
his men knew what he wanted without speech (he could have been using
some transmission device). A hint of a smile came to his face as he
stared at his son,
"his eyes blooming with joy, and was not sated.
Silting together on one throne, they emblazoned the assembly hall as
the sun and the moon rising in the sky. "
Later, business was gotten to and Rama showed him the latest
weaponry and how to use it.
"With such honors Jisnu dwelled in the
house of his father learning all the while great weapons and the
means to withdraw them. From Saba's hand he received his favorite
weapon, the irresistible thunderbolt, and the loud thunderclaps
marked by clouds and peacocks."
Father taught son the use of the
laser sword, the "thunderbolt" and the chivalrous use of it.
When
taught how to "dance" the drill step he was taught the "celestial
music that is unknown in the world of men. Acquire that art, Kaunteya, and it shall stand you in good stead!" He was taught the
infamous 'lion's roar' by which they could use auditory emanations
to stun their enemy as we saw Bhima use.
The so-called "seven heavens" were literally training bases either
satellites or giant meteorites they conducted maneuvers on, for it
was here atomic weaponry tests were conducted.
Manu gave Arjuna his
"pasupaia weapon," stating gravely,
"Left-handed archer, behold the
World Guardians arrayed. Thou hast seen Sakra in order to accomplish
a task for the Gods. From us too thou shalt take weapons."
"I
purified and prostrated myself before those bulls among Gods, and I
received in the proper fashion the grand weapons, my lord. After
receiving the weapons I was dismissed by the Gods, enemy-taming Bharata, and all the gods went as they had come," narrated Arjuna.
It was a terrible weapon,
"Once you know the weapons, my son, you
will accomplish cruel feats. Then obtain the desire, enemy-burning Pandava, for which you seek to gain weapons. "
But he also gave
him a stern warning,
"It should in no way be used on humans. Only if
you are severely pressed, you may use it, Dhanamjaya, and you should
employ it for no other purpose than to counter other missiles."
The
Gods were housed in separate stations to view the experiment.
Afterwards, a wind was caused to blow which made "the world new
again" and the "celestial, melodious instruments" were heard
everywhere, some sort of sonar waves to rid the area of the fallout. Maruts arrived on "divine wagons" to clean the area further.
Arjuna
continued his narration as he watched all the operation,
"The
divine, irresistible weapon that defeats all others stood in bodily
form beside me by the grace of the Bull-bannered God, bane of all
enemies, destroyer of enemy armies, unassailable, impossible to
endure even for Gods, Danavas, and Raksasas. With his permission I
sat down, and as I looked on the God disappeared."
He promised his
father that,
"I shall never, enemy-killer, employ the weapons on
humans, except when my other arms have been countered. Bestow on me
the celestial weapons, overlord of the Gods. Afterward, bull among
Gods, I shall attain to the worlds the weapons have won."
Rama
wanted to make sure his son was stable enough to use them and said,
"I spoke as I did in order to test you, Dhanamjaya. Your words are
fitting for one begotten by my own body. When you come to my house,
you shall learn all the weapons, Bharata, from Wind, Fire, the Vasus,
Varuna, the bands of the Maruts, those of the Sadhyas, Grandfather,
Gandharvas, Snakes and Raksasas, all those of Visnu as well as
Nirrli, and all that I myself have, scion of Kuru."
Arjuna then became expert at missile deployment, under Citrasena,
"I
dwelled there in heaven for the sake of the weapons and studied
them. Thereafter, having mastered the arms, I lived happily and
honorably in the house of Sakra."
The officers, Maruts, told him for
his training, there was a "gurus fee."
Stalwartly, Arjuna said, not
knowing the old military joke (it goes back this far!), "If I am
able to do it, tell me the deed!"
They all laughed and said,
"Now
nothing in the three worlds is impossible for you. I have enemies,
the Danavas who are called the Nivalakavacas; they live in an
inaccessible spot by the ocean bay, they number thirty million and
all are the same in shape, strength, and sheen. Kill them right
there, Kaunteya; that shall be your guru's fee."
His first mission
would be to crush the Nivatahavacar, or Yakas as they were also
called, by the Red Sea.
This he would do and earn his fee, this very
old joke meaning he would pay back 'Uncle Sam' or the Queen,
wherever you may be, for your training.
His officers gave him
confidence,
"When I had mastered the arms and become quite
confident, the God who drives the bay horses touched my hand with
both his hands and said:
"Now even the multitudes of the Gods cannot
vanquish you in battle-not to speak of humans in their world, who
have not made their souls, for you are beyond measure, unassailable,
and matchless in war."
Again, with a shudder that stood his hair on
end, the God said,
"No one. hero, shall equal you in arrow combat.
You are never distracted, clever, true-spoken, master of your senses, brahminic, and a weapon-wise
champion, O scion of Kuru. You
have acquired the missiles, the ten and the jive; in all jive ways,
Partha, you have no peer. You know how to employ, cancel, return,
placate, and counteract them all, Dhanamjaya."
When he first came aboard he had encountered a slight problem when
one Lomasa, who was traveling through, a member of the council,
questioned Arjuna being allowed entrance to the city as he was
polluted with the toxins of the world below and that as a son of
Rama he may not be so great if he fell from grace.
He was in the
most honored place of these soldier-Gods.
"How is it that the Partha,
a baron, has risen to the throne of Sakra? What great merit has he
earned, or what worlds won, that he has thus attained to a place
that the Gods honor?"
Sakra had already "divined his thought" and
put the Brahmin straight,
"This is not a mere mortal who was
born to
baron-hood, Great seer, this is my great-armed son, who was born from
Kunti; because of a certain reason he has come here to obtain
weapons. Aho! Is it possible that you do not know this eminent
ancient seer?"
He then explained that he and Enlil,
"shall roll the
burden off earth, For there are certain Asuras, Nivotokavacas by
name, who, driven mad by the gift of a boon, are doing us disfavors.
With the insolence of their strength they have designs to slay the
Gods, they do not heed the Gods, for such a boon was given them; the
terrible and powerful sons of Dnau are living in Patala, arid
indeed, all the troops of the Gods ore unable to combat them."
Patala was On, the command base which was in Siva's hands and why
they had to devise better weaponry.
His brother Visnu, remained on
earth and,
"who of yore with o mere glance destroyed the
great-spirited sons of Sagara who were digging toward the
netherworld Rasotalo - he has to accomplish in a great battle this
task for us, eminent Brahmin, together with the Partha, no doubt of
that. He can be a match for them all; after the champion has killed
them, he will return to men."
Indra bid Lomasa to return to earth
and tell Enlil that Arjuna would be five years with him as the
weaponry would take that long to create and learn, and to help
protect Enlil in between as it could not be helped, and to tell his
brothers not to miss him.
Lomasa argued the radiation and climate
would be difficult for him but Indra gave him the locations of
"sacred fords" to bath in where he would remain "guiltless" and
"feverless," a direct reflection of their fear of contamination.
Lomasa then did as ordered.
Siva was enraged when he heard Arjuna had slipped behind his lines
and reached Rama. His father was furious with him,
"Do you too
perchance know completely of the exploit of the sagacious Partha,
which I have heard in full detail, O bard? My mad and
evil-intentioned son, slow-witted in his rustic pursuits of the Law,
will in his folly massacre the earth. The great spirited man whose
words ore always live, even when spoken in jest, and who has
Dhoramjaya as his champion, shall win even the entire universe.
When Arjuna shoots his sharp-tipped, eared, iron arrows that have been
sharpened on a whetstone, who shall stand firm before him. even if
he may transcend death and old age? My evil spirited sons have all
fallen into the power of death, for there looms for them a war with
the invincible Pandavas.
Worry though I may incessantly, I do
not
see any one who could stand up in battle lo that Condiva bowman. If
Drona and Kama were to counter him in battle, nay even Bhisma
himself there would be a dangerous risk for the world itself..."
He
then looked away forlornly and spoke of the worst outcome of this
madness,
"there will be a most terrifying war, with no one the
victor, for they are all experts on arms and champions, they have
all won great fame. None of them would even want total supremacy if
they had to gain it through defeat - surely peace will only come
when either they have been killed, oh Phalguna. But there is no one
who will slay Arjuna, no one to defeat him. How can his fury be
appeased that has risen against fools?"
How right Indra was.
Everyone was equal in military strength and no contest would ever be
made with nuclear weaponry.
The ancients tell us these wars are not
over, the great contest between the Prince of Light and the Prince
of Darkness are yet to be fought. Doth factions were afraid that man
would be caught in the middle, with more destruction and further
degeneration of those who survived the first Fall. Indra meanwhile
complained that because of his blindness and attending lack of
"energy and insight," Siva had taken advantage.
Very revealing, the Veda says thus far no one of the Pandavas was
"ill-colored" as yet, or "diseased," referring of course to the fact
that their metabolic processes could not stand the poor environment
and their olive green skin was not copper, yellow, black or white as
yet.
They made the most of their situation seeing that all who had
joined them were properly fed; Enlil hunting ruru deer and black
gazelles and other "sacrificial" game, meaning kosher!
True to their
familial spirits, Arjuna was "sorely" missed, particularly by
Draupadi whose spiritual union with all her brothers was very deep
and the loss of was very injurious to Nibiru women as Draupadi said,
"Without Arjuna who. two-handed, equaled the many-handed Arjuna,
(Another Arjuno, remember these are titles - A.N.) without that best
of the Pandavas, I have no joy in the forest. I look upon this earth
and find it empty everywhere. This wood with its many marvels and
flowering trees is no longer lovely to me without the left-handed
archer. This Kamyaka Forest, dark like a rain cloud, overrun by
rutting elephants, I find no joy in it without that lotus-eyed man.
I remember the left-handed archer, whose bow sounded with the roar
of a thunderbolt, and I find no shelter, king."
In a meadow, one day
where all were sitting, the impact of her brother's departure
brought floods of tears to her eyes and grief to the brothers who
could not cry.
Bhima spoke that they must attack the Anunnaki now
and they could then go to the "highest heavens," as Arjuna, and if
they could only use the same deception Siva used they would not need
the "divine weapons."
Bhima reminded all that on earth when they
ruled a year was longer as compared to time as registered in the
Underworld. Enlil kissed him on the head and said in thirteen years
he would break the thigh of Siva and kill him.
And, looking at all
his brothers, he further replied,
"the time has come. I cannot tell
a lie, for it is not in me."
The time had come...
The journey back to the earth would be long and tortuous as it had
to be made mostly on foot, while they had sent word to send ships
and meet them at a particular area. They only knew they had to leave
as their systems could not take any longer the terrible climate.
They had to retreat through the Raksasas country once more which
would take all their strength and cunning.
Enlil advised that
Draupadi stay but she was too ill from not seeing Arjuna, "the man
of me while horses," and to bear all her brothers leaving, the
strength of a Nibiruian woman, was too much for her.
Bhima argued,
as Enlil well knew,
"this lordly princess who obeys her vows will no
more be able to turn back without you, tiger-like man; likewise
Sahadeva, who is always avowed to you, will never go back, for I
know his mind. Besides, oil of us are eager to set eyes on the
left-handed archer, great king; therefore we shall journey
together."
They were desperate for they had no airships, only land
vehicles which soon gave out, and Bhima said he would carry Draupadi
wherever she could not go.
The twin brothers were already weak and Bhima vows to help them too. Lomasa who was there to assist, says
they will with austerities, meaning using their instincts, surmount
the problem. They headed for the opening in the Himalayas from which
they would emerge. This area was a beauteous place, "sought out by
the Immortals. "
Here they rested among friends and left the
vehicles to continue on foot.
Enlil gave a parting statement before
they left,
"It burns my limbs, as fire bums a pile of cotton, that I
do not see the heroic Dhanamjaya at my side. This, the desire to
see him, and the insult done to Draupadi, burn me... Through his
prowess I once owned celestial gems aplenty of many kinds, which
have now fallen lo Suyodhono. Through the strength of his arms I
once had an assembly hall, hero, a hoi I built of all manner of
precious stones, famed in the three worlds, Pandava ..."
They felt
themselves rested and physically capable of confronting Natures
enemies as Enlil stated as the,
"unprepared encounter flies, gnats,
mosquitoes, tigers, lions, and snakes, Partha: the prepared do not
see them. So, having prepared our spirits and eating lightly we
shall enter Mount Gondhamadana to find Dhanomjayo."
He just said
something people in holistic fields have been trying to convince
people of, when they are healthy with no lack of B-complex, zinc,
etc., they are rarely troubled with natures little pests who can
only live off of low alkaline blood and, hence, we get malaria and
other diseases.
The lion is most apt to attack as any other, for
when man is not healthy, he is in a state of decay, easy prey. They
also probably cut out meat as they were in no real position to
butcher it properly and the lactic acid in them would have been
picked up by the lion. This is why Indians declined meat eating for
a week before the hunt, for there is always some lactic acid scent
when one eats meat.
The whiteman has always been for the most part
ignorant of this fact and has to build decoys, traps, high powered
scopes, and scents to compensate for his stupidity. They lived off
roots and fruit, passing by glorious mountains and valleys. A heavy
dust storm blew upon them and Bhima grabbed Draupadi and they took
shelter by trees followed by torrential rains.
The sun reappeared
and they resumed but Draupadi, "so very delicate" weakened by the
storm, fainted, Nakula catching her. Enlil, Bhima and Sahadeva ran
to her immediately.
She was very thin and pale and Enlil took her on
his lap,
"She was accustomed to finely spread couches in well
guarded houses - how is it that now, radiant and worthy of joy,
she has fallen on the ground? How is it that the very delicate feet
and the lotus-like face of her who is worthy of the choicest boons
have now because of me become darkened?"
Her skin, grown darker now,
was paled by the fainting spell.
They laid her on antelope skins.
The brothers attended to her with hands dipped in cold water upon
her face and she slowly regained consciousness. Even the soles of
her feet had turned a red-copper which the twins massaged to bring
her to.
Enlil soothed her with words while telling Bhima aside that
he did not think she would make it as there were many mountains yet
to come. Bhima said not to worry as Ghatotkaca, his son, would meet
them soon, being "able to fly."
However, he seems to have lost his
way until it seems he read Bhima's thought transfers and he soon
appeared, saying to his father,
"You thought of me, and I obeyed and
came quickly. Give your orders, strong-armed hero, I shall surely do
anything!"
Bhima then embraced his son, and said.
"Son of Hidimba!
Your undefeated mother has become very tired; you can travel where
you want, son, and you are strong; cany her in the sky. Be blessed,
lift her on your shoulder, and accompany us from the sky, flying
low so that it may not upset her!"
Like all Nibiru women, having no
testosterone as we have spoken of, she was afraid to fly and they
only did so in the direst of emergencies and then, as here, they had
to be held by their men.
A "long distance" was soon covered shortly,
Draupadi with her son, while the others were with other members of
the entourage. Passing by "hordes of barbarians" they were fortunate
their son arrived when he did. They also passed by many "monkeys" another
faction they knew too well.
They soon approached the opening in
Tibet, which sounded like the true Shangri-la,
"this blessed place
was without darkness though untouched by the rays of the sun, free
from the afflictions of hunger and thirst, cold and heat, and
dispelling sorrow. It was crowded by hosts of great seers and filled
with Vedic luster, difficult of access, great king, lo men outside
sacred Heritage, with very fine unguents; and it shone everywhere
with offerings of divine flowers. It was full of large fire halls
and fine bundles of ladies, and adorned with tall sturdy water jars
- o divine place of refuge for oil creatures ..."
The inhabitants
were overcome by the approach of Enlil and his brothers and showered
them with accolades.
Here were many of their people, the "true
born," who had escaped On's fall where they gathered to regain their
health and senses. Here the Pandavas rested and recuperated and
"delighted in watching the colorful frolics of Krsna (Draupadi),"
and observed "the most scrupulous cleanliness" and stayed six
nights.
We should return again to the journey of Arjuna and look at its
common source as shown in the writings of gnostic literature (that
means the things the Bible left out or you would have known what was
going on!).
These are good comparisons however, to the candid
descriptions of the Veda as we see how religious ecstasy influenced
these writings from more graphic, realistic accounts. As we know in
the Veda, he was being trained in the latest weaponry, presumably on
some planet or man-made satellite only it is referred to as a "wind
vehicle" in which he traveled there in these gnostic texts.
As in
the Veda, it is insinuated they prepare to fight the opposition for
at,
"the blessing of Enoch: with which he blessed the elect
and the
righteous who would be present on the day of tribulation at the time
of the removal of all the ungodly ones." 2
And, as in the Veda, Rama
himself appeared and the area of Mount Sinai and Jerusalem was their
goal to keep this area from the powers of Siva, their last bastion
of the east,
"the God of the universe, the Holy Great One, will come
forth from his dwelling. And from there he will march upon Mount
Sinai and appear in his camp emerging from heaven with a mighty
power. And everyone shall be afraid, and Watchers shall quiver. And
great fear and trembling shall seize them unto the ends of the
earth. Mountains and high places will fall down and b? frightened.
And high hills shall be made low; and they
shall melt like a
honeycomb before the flame. And earth shall be rent as under and oil
that is upon the earth shall perish."
And. Rama would try to
preserve those of his oppressed lineages, and as in the Veda a
virtual army of millions would be under his command,
"He will
preserve the elect, and kindness shall be upon them. They shall all
belong to god and they shall prosper and be blessed; and the light
of God shall shine unto them. Behold, he will arrive with ten
millions of the holy ones in order to execute judgment upon all. He
will destroy the wicked anes and censure all flesh on account of
everything that they have done, that which the sinners and the
wicked ones committed against him."
In
Pseudepigrapha, Enoch is
taken to the top of a mountain where launching pads and bunkers seem
to be, note the reference here to the whirlwind again,
"and they
lifted me up into one place where there were the ones like the
flaming fire. And when they so desire they appear like men. And they
took me into a place of whirlwind in the mountain; the top of its
summit was reaching into heaven.
And I saw chambers of light and
thunder in the ultimate end of the depth toward the place where the
fiery bow, the arrow, and their quiver and a fiery sward and all the
lightnings were. And they lifted me up into the waters of life, unto
the occidental fire which receives every setting of the sun."
We see
again here, the reference to the fiery bow and arrows and quiver,
which seem to be weapons unlike the conventional, perhaps the quiver
is slang for a launch site.
Another passage states,
"and it shall
come to pass in these days that the children of the elect and the
holy ones will descend from the high heaven and their seed will
become one with the children of the people. And in those days Enoch
received the books of zeal and wrath as well as the books of haste
and whirlwind."
Enoch then looked down and,
"saw the mountains of the
dark storms of the rainy season and from where the waters of all the
seas flow.
And I saw the mouths of all the rivers of the earth and
the mouth of the sea. And I saw the storerooms of all the winds and
saw how with them he has embroidered all creation as well as the
foundations of the earth.
I saw the cornerstone of the earth; I saw
the four winds which beat the earth as well as the firmament of
heaven. I saw how the winds ride the heights of heaven and stand
between heaven and earth. These are the very pillars of heaven."
Again, we see references to the four pillars as in Egyptian writings
and I would like to interrupt here and have you notice they mention
the four winds which bear the earth.
We have just discovered the
bases of the four corners of the earth which radiate into space,
highly concentrated magnetic fields, called the "faur labes"3 placed
symmetrically on either side of the earth's equator at 60 degrees
latitude and 120 degrees W and 120 degrees E longitude.
Did he also
see the satellite Rama had installed, the disc or shall we say
discs, these stars that appear in the daytime as the Egyptians tell
us?
"And I kept moving in the direction of the west; and it was
flaming day and night toward the seven mountains of precious stones
- three toward the east and three toward the south.
As for those
toward the east, they were of colored stones - one of pearl stone
and one of healing stone, and as for these toward the south, they
were of red stone. The ones in the middle were pressing into heaven
like the throne of God, which is of alabaster and whose summit is of
sapphire, and I saw a flaming fire."
Did he also see other ships
taking off from the earth?
"And I saw what was inside those
mountains - a place beyond the great earth, where the heavens come
together. And I saw how deep it was with heavenly fire on its
pillars; I saw inside them descending pillars of fire that were
immeasurable in respect to both altitude and depth. And on tap of
that pit I saw a place without the heavenly firmament above it or
earthly foundation under it or water. There was nothing an it -
not even birds - but it was a desolate and terrible place."
Sounds
very much like he saw launching sites and that these mountains were
certainly 'holy' in a quite different manner!
Enoch even saw a space prison where others after the Flood were
taken or perhaps after the Fall:
"And I come to an empty place. And
I saw there neither a heaven above nor an earth below, but o chaotic
and terrible place. And there I saw seven stars of heaven bound
together in it, like great mountains, and burning with fire.
At that
moment I said,
"For which sin are they baund,
and for what reason
were they cast in here."
Then one of the holy angels, Uriel, who was
with me, guiding me. spoke lo me and said to me,
"Enoch, for what
reason are you asking and far what reason do you question and
exhibit eagerness?"
These are among the stars of heaven which have
transgressed the commandments of the Lord and ore bound in this
place until the completion of ten million years, according to the
number of their sins.
"I then proceeded from that area to another
place which is even more terrible and saw a terrible thing: a great
fire that was burning and flaming; the place had a cleavage that
extended to the last sea, pouring am great pillars of fire; neither
its extent nor its magnitude could I see nor was I able to estimate.
At that moment, what a terrible opening is this place and
pain to
look at! Then Ura'el. one of the holy angels who was with me,
responded and said to me, "Enoch, why are you afraid like this?"
I
answered and said,
"I am frightened because of this terrible place
and the spectacle of this painful thing."
And he said unto me,
"This place is the prison house of the angels, they are
detained
here forever."
From above, Enoch saw how the Gods manipulated the actions of the
heavens.
Law and Order in the Universe must have a mind behind it in
its entropic furor:
"And there my eyes saw the secrets of lightning
and thunder, and the mysteries of the winds, how they are
distributed in order to blow upon the earth, and the secrets of the
clouds and the dew I saw there from where they proceed in that place
and haw from there they satiate the dust of the earth.
At that
place, I also saw sealed storerooms from which the winds of the
storerooms of hail and the winds of the storerooms of mist are
distributed; and these clouds hover over the earth from the
beginning of the world. And I saw the storerooms of the sun and the
moon, from what place they come out and to which place they return,
and their glorious return - how in their travel one festival is
celebrated mare than the other.
They do not depart from their orbit,
neither increase nor decrease it, but they keep faith one with
another; in accordance with an oath they set and they rise. From the
first is the sun; and it executes its course in accordance with the
commandment of the Lord of the Spirits - his name shall persist
forever and ever.
After that is found both the hidden and the
visible path of the moon; and the path of its orbit it completes by
day and by night at that place. And the two will gaze directly into
the glory of the Lord of the Spirits. They give thanks, they praise,
and they do not economize an energy, for their very essence
generates new power.
Surely the many changes of the sun have both a
blessing a curse."
Note the reference to the sun as a blessing and a
curse.
Are we in a closed, constructed universe, controlled by the
Gods? Why are some scientists believing that the satellites of some
of the planets are artificial?
Surely, with entropy, the entire
Universe would immediately collapse upon itself without
intervention, just as the body will die of malnutrition if a mind
does not direct it.
"There is no such thing as non-existence before
him. Even before the world was created, he knows what is forever and
what will be from generation to generation."
He too had gone to the
center of the earth as Arjuna,
"And from there I went into the
center of the earth and saw a blessed place, shaded with branches
which live and bloom from a tree that was cut. And there I saw a
holy mountain: underneath the mountain, in the direction of the
east, there was a stream which was flowing in the direction of the
north ..."
He describes their "wind vehicles,"'
"advancing upon the
air from the east and from the west until midday. And the sound of
their chariots was clamorous; and when this commotion look place,
the holy ones in heaven look notice of it and the pillars of the
earth were shaken from their foundations, and the sound of the noise
could be heard from the extreme end of the sky unto the extreme end
of the earth in one hour."
In the following I have to chuckle at
what is obviously his description of warning lights:
"In those days,
my eyes saw the mysteries of lightnings, and of lights, and their
judgments, they flash lights for a blessing or a curse, according lo
the will of the Lord of the Spirits."
At another part a great roar
occurred,
"then a great trembling and fear seized me and my loins
and kidneys lost control. So I fell upon my face. Then Michael sent
another angel from among the holy ones and he raised me up. And when
he had raised me up, my spirit returned; for I had fainted because I
could not withstand the sight of these farces and because heaven has
stirred up and agitated itself."
I am afraid I would have lost
control of my kidneys too!
But just where did these texts come from?
The Gods were said to have left a rendering of these tales and these
may be translations as the people then would have understood them,
and perhaps a blending of those who remembered the events
themselves. I do not believe Arjuna would have lost control
(although, he was not in the best of health), but someone else who
experienced the same, might have.
Enoch, like Arjuna, was given the "garments of Glary" which only the
"elect ones" could wear both in heaven and on earth, like the
garments given to Adam and Eve and others when they ventured from
their Edins.
Apparently, the earth's atmosphere was quickly
dissipating for the worse just as it had at the Fall when they left
their Edins and they needed these self-contained suits just as the
Pandava were stripped of theirs by Siva,
"They shall wear the garments of
glory. These garments of yours shall become the garments
of life from the Lord of the Spirits. Neither shall your garments
wear out, nor your glory come to an end before the Lord of the
Spirits."
As in the Veda, some of the angels of the Lord did not like his son.
I think the following is quite succinct and also settles the
disturbing questions about the color of the true Gods:
"as soon as I reached the heavenly heights, the holy creatures, the
ophanim, the seraphim, the cherubim, the wheels of the chariot and
the ministers of consuming fire, smelled my odor 365,000 myriads of
parasangs off, they said, "What is this smell of one born of a
woman? Why does a white drop ascend on high and serve among those
who cleave the flames?"
The Holy One, blessed be he, replied and
said lo them, "Ministers, my hasts, my cherubim, my ophanim, and my
seraphim, do not be displeased at this, for all mankind has rejected
me and my great kingdom and has gone off and worshiped idols. Sa I
have taken up my Sekinah from their midst and brought it up to the
height.
And this one whom I have removed from them is the choicest
of them all and worth them all in faith, righteousness, and fitting
conduct. This one who I have taken is my sole reward from my whole
world under heaven."
It was because the 'Sekinah' or disc was gone that peoples skin
tones were changing, and Arjuna was no different for we saw they
worried about it themselves in the Veda.
It seems that the reference
of the 'white drop' was purely contemptuous, denoting those who had
mutated to that color when born from androgynous women who lacked
those biochemicals to create the original stock. When Arjuna made
his entrance he was met with scorn because his skin was of a very
anemic color.
"White drop" is always meant to mean the fallen man in
his worst state for that skin color was the most to be wary of for
they were biochemically unstable, but they often worked with them
hardest in the hopes of returning them back to their true biological
color.
Their odor is much more offensive than others, so the Gods
would have, with their keen sense of smell, detected them from afar,
because they are so low in vitamin A, destroyed by the sun.
If you
are white like myself, do not take offense, we have a long way to go
yet! There has always been error in assuming the gods were white
because of their garments such as in the following:
"And! saw the
sons of the holy angels walking upon the flame of fire; their
garments were white - and their-overcoats - and the light of
their faces was like snow."
In a vision told by Enoch, he trembles
in a dream when white cows and bulls were borne upon the earth and
all morals of the people weakened, a reflection of the first Fall,
when so many degenerated to the white color.
They were referred to
as "putrid drops" because they also have more
bilirubin flowing in
their systems, the waste from the bowels, (more on this later, it
has a good, as well as bad side, but it must be handled properly as
the Gods tried to tell us) which added to their offensive smell.
As
in the Veda, some of them were multi-colored from
vitiligo as in the
following which also has a statement concerning their bodies being
like eagles which we see often and may be that the oxygen support
systems they had looked like wings upon their backs:
"I saw that
their faces looked like human faces but their bodies were like
eagles. Moreover, the faces of the intermediate were a greenish
color, on account of their deeds, for they are tainted until
purified of their iniquity by fire. And the faces of the wicked
souls were as black as the bottom of a pot, because of the multitude
of their wicked deeds."
In the following it sounds very much like the Urim and Thummin, the
"lights and perfections," the stones and objects set in the priests
breastplate by which he communicated with God (Exod. 28:30; Lev.
8:8) and as we will see, actually did:
"Out of the love which he had for me, more than for all the denizens
of the heights, the Holy One, blessed be he, fashioned for me a
majestic robe in which all kinds of luminaries were set, and he
clothed me in it. He fashioned for me a glorious cloak in which
brightness, brilliance, splendor, and luster of every kind were
fixed, and he wrapped me in it.
He fashioned for me a kingly crown
in which 49 refulgent stones were placed, each like the sun's orb,
and its brilliance shone into the four quarters of the heaven of 'Arabol,'
into the seven heavens, and into the four quarters of the world. He
set it upon my head and he called me "The lesser YHWH" in the
presence of his whole household in the height, as it is written. "My
name is in him."
Singing is often attributed to the angels, but is this rather the
hum of equipment?
However, at Arjuna's entrance and Enoch's, it
seems as if bagpipes, the antiquity of which we know not, were
played:
"In the middle of the heaven I saw aimed troops, worshiping
the Lord with tympani and pipes and unceasing voices, and pleasant
voices and pleasant and unceasing and various songs, which it is
impossible to describe, and every mind would be quite astonished, so
marvelous and wonderful is the singing of these angels. And I was
delighted, listening to them."
In the heavens,
YHWH was a title of distinctive rank, just as Enlil,
India, etc... and applied to the Gods in command:
"Whenever the great
Law Court sits in the height of the heaven of Arabot, only the great
princes who ore called YHWH by the name of the Holy One, blessed be
he, are permitted to speak."
There are different ranks of YHWH -
Gallisur YHWH, Zakzaki'el YHWH, etc.
The fleets of the
chariots of the Gods were well known to the people
who looked on in awe and amazement.
The famed cherubim seemed to be
a ship of some sort resembling a flying body,
"all these winds blow
only from beneath the wings of the cherubim, as it is written;"
"He
mounted a cherub and flew, and soared on the wings of the wind."
Enoch was questioned as to how many chariot's his father had:
"R. Ismael said: the angel Mefotran, Prince of the Divine Presence,
the glory of highest heaven, said to me:
How many chariots has the Holy one, blessed be he? He has the chariots of the cherubim, as it is written, "He mounted a
cherub and flew." He has the chariots of wind, as ii is written, "He
soared on the
wings of the wind." He has the chariots of swift cloud, as it is written, "See! the Lord
comes riding a swift cloud." He has the chariots of clouds,
as it is written, "I am coming lo you
in a dense cloud." He has the chariots of the alter, as it is written, "I saw the Lord
standing upon the alter." He has the chariots of twice ten thousand,
as it is written, "The
chariots of God are twice ten thousand, thousands of angels." He has the chariots of the tent, as it is written, "The Lord showed
himself in the tent, in a pillar of cloud. "
The following clears up any idea that we may harbor that they were
only seeing illusions from passing the goat skin around too much as
"He has the chariots of eagles, as it is written, I carried you on
eagles' wings" and "They ore not eagles but fly like eagles."
There were many different kinds of
chariots:
"He has the chariots of Arabot, as
it is written,
"Extol him who rides in the Arobol,"
and "He has the chariots of clouds, as it is written."
"He makes the clouds his chariots."
The many "eyes" seem to denote windows,
or lights,
"He has the chariots of the ophanim,
as it is written, "The ophanim were covered all over in eyes."
And, of course, the most famous, those
that resemble chariots drawn by horses.
"And Aseneth saw something like o
chariot of four horses traveling into heaven toward the east.
And the chariot was like a flame of fire, and the horses like
lightening. And the man was standing on that chariot."
As described in the Veda, they had
open
airships of some sort which resembled chariots drawn by horses.
