The Cosmic Eggs

One of the historical Seven Wonders of the World is pronounced (many years in any case however the Great Pyramid had vanished) to be the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus. This remarkable goddess has what many archaeologists and historians have interpreted to be nearly 1000 breasts on her frame. It is being commented on on this very way as I type this. The Discovery Channel is interviewing an esteemed Cambridge scholar who looks to realize his words are as clever as Solomon. The stupidity of such absurd reasons isn't always uncommon but still it attracts a smile from folks that know better.

In the beyond few months I even have examine over  hundred books in whole or in part and best the authors of Carthage have an concept approximately the import of those 'cosmic eggs'. They additionally marvel why the Berbers painted so many ostrich eggs and then threw them in rubbish pits, close to Cyrenaica. The Keltic serpent's eggs from the Druidic education may provide a bit insight. This subsequent quote mentions 'Pelota' which we stated in reference to a sport that passed off at Chichen Itza to save you needless tribal battle. It has different meanings and depths relating to life and the passage of the soul which might be touched upon on this quote from 'The Mistletoe Sacrament' by using W. B. Crow in 'A Celtic Reader' which has been a steady source of mine; for the final ten months as I even have explored the origins of the 'Red-Heads' with an obsession some would possibly call mania:

The Druids themselves had been acknowledged to the Welsh bards by a word meaning adders, and Lewis Spence is of the opinion that the ridiculous statements of Pliny truely talk over with the way wherein the Druids manufacture these eggs. Later bards additionally talk to a ceremony wherein a ball turned into snatched and carried throughout the water.

The Druidic custom just referred to, we can not help wondering, can also have been the starting place of the curious mediaeval ceremony of 'pelota', which came about in sure Catholic churches in France and Italy on Easter Monday. The ceremony consisted in bringing a ball of considerable length into the church and after solemnly offering it before the altar, positive of the clergy beginning to bounce and throwing the ball approximately in a unique manner It could be proper to recognise if this originated in Mayan lands or if the Druids like Quetzalcoatl and the Toltecs took it there. They are the 'messengers' referred to in many Indian legends like the ones of Grey Owl.. The rite symbolizes both the passage of the solar and the planets thru the heavens and also the vicissitudes of the soul of guy (the causal body of the theosophists). In Egyptian mythology the trial of the soul after demise is associated with the passage of the sun through the underworld. The whipping of a spinning pinnacle, representing Alleluia on the Saturday earlier than Septuagesima, a rite not uncommon in this united states in former times, is related to this practice.

Madame Blavatsky has a few thrilling comments on the reference to the serpent cult A serpent is going up the aspect of the pyramid at Chichen Itza in particular methods because the sun and shadows create the impact that the building became re-built to create by means of the Toltec designers after the unique pyramid were built through the Jaguar cult centuries in advance. Chichen Itza have become an global court docket of the whole of Central America if no longer more., which changed into at one time massive and which remains extensively practiced in South India. The serpent is a image of regeneration And the orobouros of the alchemists is a serpent preserving its tail and making the infinity kind of immortality symbol: or the Mayan mathematical idea of 0 they are credited with coming across over a century earlier than the humans of the sub-continent of India.). Not simplest does it lay eggs from which new life arises after having been preserved within the dormant country, but the reptile itself sloughs its pores and skin at normal periods. The provoke, inside the ancient thriller religions, went via sure occult tactics wherein his cars Solar frame, soul, allies and 'doppelganger' to name some. Had been definitely renewed, and within the symbolism thereof get rid of his antique clothing and became clad in new vestures. What better symbolism than the serpent might be chosen to symbolize this change in the persona? Besides this, the regeneration via sloughing refers back to the regeneration of the physical frame by reincarnation and the regeneration of races and worlds of the theosophic cosmogony.

Some primitive peoples, after a death has befell, perform a ritual in which the performers are divided into two companies and a war for the frame takes vicinity among the events. This refers back to the battle between the powers of light and darkness for the spirit o£ the deceased, an eschatological fable of many historical peoples. In the direction of the evolution of this ritual it have become a sport wherein the cranium by myself become the item of fight or had to be kicked into the aim. The various forms of the sport of soccer and polo, and possibly different ball games, are supposed to have originated from this, the authentic non secular importance having emerge as misplaced. The Druidic ritual of snatching an egg and walking away till one got over a flow (which acts as the aim) indicates a comparable sport and connects up with funeral video games. The egg or ball is an great symbol of the causal body, if you will consider clairvoyants, who see it as a form of rounded or egg-fashioned structure, in exceptional matter Similar to ectoplasm as seen in ghosts. Of the better mental I might without a doubt NOT use this phrase. Aircraft. After dying, in keeping with bills of occultists, there may be a type of play of forces, true and evil, which do seem to battle for the possession of the causal body and to determine whether or not it is going to a terrific or horrific incarnation while subsequent it descends to clothe itself with coarser be counted.

The Druid's egg, says Pliny, became unknown to the Greeks They honestly knew approximately the Temple of Artemis with all the eggs some contemporary Cambridge pupil thinks is breasts, and Pliny the Roman is not an initiate within the Eleusinian or Cabiri, mysteries, to my information.. But different varieties of eggs are stated in Greek and Hindu mythology, and the consecration of an egg was one of the most crucial acts within the secret ritual of the Eleusinian mysteries. The Christian Church persisted the use of the equal symbol, as we see inside the so-called Easter eggs, and in the ostrich eggs that are still to be seen placing in Orthodox Catholic Churches inside the East. In fact an entire lecture is probably devoted to the symbolism of the cosmic egg."

We should delve into many things this quote engages. In a few methods I am squeamish approximately doing so on this e book. I actually have written about my stories and research at the stele I located at the back of the Pelota at Chichen Itza in different books and that makes re-telling the story something redundant. The remember of accurate and evil and 'Some primitive peoples' this author is speaking about is most tough. How can I do what thousands and thousands of philosophers in the course of records had been not able to absolutely give an explanation for? It is clear that the Christian church borrowed almost all of the supposedly pagan rituals. The communion is admitted with the aid of de Vere and Gardner (Genesis of the Grail Kings and the Sarkeny Rend Rosicrucians) to be just like their earlier adept Count Dracul or 'Vlad the Impaler' and the vampire practices. My revel in with exorcisms is considerable sufficient to recognise that the Catholic Church takes benefit of some pretty clean situations and makes them a huge issue for the reason of self-merchandising. I suggest analyzing The Devils of Loudon through Aldous Huxley for a documentary journey down that road. The rely of the combat over the soul that sounds like a number of Dante Aligheri's "HELL" isn't the matter of Druidic cosmogony. It is the method of FEAR-mongering via Christianity inclusive of the 'sins and demons' we touched upon in the difficulty of clinical ailments and Paracelsus.

Mr. Sharkey spoke about 'representing each global within the other', as he described the Druids. There changed into a guided spiritual ritual element to some of what went on on the Pelota in Chichen Itza with the huge ball, that is going into the world of the time-space continuum, and loose preference that scholars of the Nagual's Way from Castaneda would possibly remember the fact that I might not delve into, once more. Are there certainly 'Other Worlds' because the quantum physics 'Many Worlds Interpretation' assures us and Wigner or Schrödinger (Nobel Laureates) say the Mandukya Upanishads describe accurately? Have you study the Tao of Physics by means of the physicist Fritjof Capra and visible what he says approximately S-Matrix theory of Math and the 'I Ching'? Believe me this creator (Mr. Crow) might have to turn right into a raven if his 'whole lecture' might do the trick in explaining the cosmic egg.

We have made it clean the Kelts believed within the afterlife and spirit world or they wouldn't have made loans to be repaid after demise. We have said they didn't fear death and they had no punitive 'unmerciful God. But there are leprechauns and the Fianna of the remarkable historical Irish king Finn who the Phoenicians favored and named themselves after. So we're caught on this quandary of creating seeming conflicting statements come together. We stated the spirits might take a baby or their strength if the determine let the spirits recognize the kid's name. That doesn't sound like the paintings of a leprechaun! You have heard approximately 'witches' and  we've got been defending them, too. You probable wonder if this is not all 'hocus-pocus' and barbaric matters besides.

There are top people that I know who deny and keep away from these records like they're 'THE PLAGUE'! It is not going to make your lifestyles less difficult when you open those doorways and spot the hundreds more that watch for you beyond. Occultists are frequently 'sophists' or will interact in sophistry too. Who can say what matters God might be capable of? Who genuinely believes in this sort of force anyway? Most human beings pay lip-service to it. The Kelts we have stated (and Admiral Morison ridiculed) have been extraordinary. Clearly the Phoenicians demanded the greatest non-public dedication to their ideals, at the least from their common person or citizen. When their kings are seen having to give their first born to the god Baal (Bel = BL) are they simply babel-ing (BBL and later the Bible)? Some of these kings had been front guys or girls and there's good enough proof they did these items, but that doesn't mean all of them did it. Carthage had a democratic sort of government in line with Aristotle and maybe this became the pass kings had to undergo just like the Keltic practice of burning the leader at the stop in their time period in office (25 12 months time period, and this made for much less fraud and 'cronyism'). This can turn out to be pretty barbaric as we have visible with the 'Devoted Ones' however it became a celebration and the forerunner of the 'wake'. That seems evidence enough that loss of life turned into no longer feared anyMORE than the North American warriors who 'counted coup' feared their 'maker'. So what if a lot of these cultural beliefs are shared across the oceans? What does it rely to you now if you are 'getting yours'? Why 'open a can of worms in case you can not close it'?

Maybe we must leave this form of talk to some other e-book and just point arms on the church that hides those truths from us. Maybe our happiness and freedom are better beneath their ministrations. If there are religious forces which could mess with us. There is a lot of benefit in my worries approximately this and there is a law of the Magi that announces 'Know, Will, Dare, Keep Silent'. We've already given a number of places to search for the solutions to esoteric questions like these and it is probably first-class to maintain this book on the academic level of ethnology or anthropological denial of the motives and realities that absolutely', are the nature of everyday existence. We may want to speak about laws and minstrels and make adorable poems to amuse the reader and now have carried out lots to assist humans see the culture was no more barbaric than we are. Why did the Druids observe this regulation and hold a lot in their understanding in 'verbal traditions' which include the Qaballa changed into crafted from? Were they actually so afraid of this understanding being abused via unethical or un-disciplined 'posers'? Did they truly assume their soul would be judged as unworthy of development if they broke this regulation? Surely if they might sell the knowledge of form-moving and the 'Lost Chord' they could have made existence loads better for lots of humans.

The reality is they might have completed anything or had some thing they wanted on the point they rose to the best degree. In fact the moral energy to have such know-how is more crucial than the mental or chemical know-how in connection with the 'Stone'. I am positive cash and energy is a pursuit that blinds people thru their ego. This 'blindness' that closes the soul to 'what's' or as Jesus stated 'the living father within', will prevent any politico from getting their arms on whatever sincerely dangerous you would possibly say. That might be actual, too. There have been some things that they knew which might be abused though, and it was (and is) important to do what is RIGHT. That is another law of the three laws of the Magi. RIGHT THOUGHT=RIGHT ACTION!

He's dodging and waffling, you might say. What approximately the matters this man said approximately the warfare over the soul when we die? What sort of authority do I ought to disagree with occultists like Madame Blavatsky who heralded my favourite instructor Jiddhu Krishnamurti and helped Annie Besant teach him? In the very last evaluation you may say I'm a person engaging in 'sophistry' and ego too. We realize that no person character can simply realize God or all this stuff so why study what I have to mention? For now I pick out to say that we are going to cover the religion of the Druids who were the dominant force in lots of years of human way of life in a later chapter. But I do not want the reader to assume the Druids or Kelts have been so ego driven or frightened as to worry about spirits taking pictures their souls after they had grown enough to realize their name; in addition they had been 'blanketed' from the lesser obsessive forces of the limbo or interstitiary nation of the spirit international which may also possess a soul.

Yes, they had a number of frightening legends and testimonies about evil acts of mischievous and different forces. Sometimes these stories are just like the debts of struggle at the friezes or frescoes of the Mayan, who wanted people to know the stupidity of struggle. Sometimes there were folks who wanted this motivation to make an effort to study enough to shield themself. In all instances as long as the Druids were nonetheless round (earlier than the Roman 'bounties') they had recourse to protection if some thing surely bad occurred. At the equal time there was a extra element of 'destiny' and 'destiny' on this faith than I assume is real. I can't say for sure that there had been human beings at the very best stage who knew higher the import of 'free will'. I can't even be sure what degree or degree of loose will or 'international mind' existed of their collective subconscious (Jung). There are masses of Celts and those from put up Druidic instances who write about Druids as though they know them. Some of those people are truely 'far gone' when it comes to the inevitability of the cyclical nature of the 'forces'. The Etruscans are suitable examples of this and the Carthaginians who allied with them or were their 'brothers' truely had loads of that in them too. But that may be a time when the macho strength-trippers had already made high-quality inroads into the authentic nature-worshipping way of life, too.

The historians have little to go with inside the information of records. We often are left with the words of Caesar inside the first century BC. To verify that there had been numerous faculties of Druidry because the satisfactory recorded insight to earlier instances. In Gaul the first-rate knowledge appears to head again no in addition than the fifth century BC. And ornamentation is the toughest proof. Gimbutas has the Old European alphabet that takes us back an extended way but many pupils aren't convinced due to the fact they do not apprehend the esoteric symbology. There are those who chortle and factor to Stonehenge or Carnac in Brittany, and of path the Pyramid they are aware of it's the paintings of the Red-Headed League of Megalith Builders. But they can not prove a definite connection to the Druids. At least not in the eyes of people who establish the specified standards of evidence within the halls of academia. They be aware that the term 'goddess-worship' or Wicca may not actually have existed until the 18th century. We can say the time period is not the factor and the information of historians are propaganda.
