I realize that some readers of these pages may wonder exactly where I am heading with this discussion, particularly that which constitutes the previous section. I only ask that you be patient and not skip any of the material because it is important to further events and revelations. What I am trying to give you is a context of what was in my mind and my environment as the "clues" were given. Keep always in mind the following:
And once, when a guest asked if he could just contact the Cassiopaeans himself they remarked:
So, please realize that I am working as hard as I can to enable anyone and everyone who so desires to unlock the truths they have within - and to do it perhaps a little less traumatically than I did it myself! I can take you, the reader, along with me to a great extent, reproducing for you in these words I am writing not only the events, but the thinking processes that I followed and the discoveries that I made; but it is up to you to have the perseverance and will to accompany me, and, perhaps, to go beyond. Yes, some parts seem to be boring or less interesting from one perspective or another; but if it were not important, and even crucially so, it would not be included here. I AM excluding a lot of the "false trails" and red herrings unless they have some bearing on what turned out to be the "right" path. And, what was the "right path" for me may not be the same for everyone. So each of you are responsible for doing your own additional work and research. And if what I have done makes it go faster and easier and eliminates some of the wasted time of pursuing disinformation and futile thinking, it is worth my effort. At this point, I am going to try to finish filling in the "mental picture" that was in my mind at a most crucial point in the Quest so that I can then begin to mover forward through the sessions from 1996 onward in a more or less chronological fashion. When I finish these next few pages, the reader will have all the clues that I had as well as the context in which they were given. As I have already noted, the presence at two sessions of the young Jewish woman (RC), who was convinced that she had been connected to me in some way in a previous life in Nazi Germany, really seemed to "shift" the direction of the Cassiopaean communications. In retrospect, it was also the opening of a "door" and the initiating of a new path in my life. After the first session she attended, I had the dream of the "happy wedding" where I was taken to meet the "faceless bridegroom," and after the second session she attended, I had the actual hallucinatory vision of the "unknown-yet-familiar-face." RC was also the one who accelerated the project of producing a magazine as an "organ" for the Cassiopaean material. I had envisioned something that would be more "serious" and yet "open-minded" than the usual metaphysical or UFO publications, and a "journal" seemed to just fit the bill. She had been producing a magazine for a few years and wanted to give it up because she had plans to relocate, and at the same time, she didn't want to leave her subscribers hanging. It seemed to be a perfect solution for me to take over the subscription list and carry on the work. RC's focus had been more astrological, though she included many articles about alien abduction and conspiracy theories, so the slight reorientation I planned on adding didn't seem like too great a divergence from the original format. I didn't care for the name of the "rag," but that was a minor point that could be rectified. Everything looked like it was a "go" and we felt that this was the key to "networking" in a big way! It was also at this point that I began to read the entire series of Matrix books assembled by Val Valerian. As I was digging through this mountain of material, I kept my eye open for the possibilities of Masonic connections because everyone was very hot on the Masonic Conspiracy idea. It had been connected to the Priory of Sion by virtue of the Templars, in a very interesting book entitled The Temple and the Lodge, by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. It was proposed that the Templars had "gone to ground" in Scotland and England and "reappeared" later as the Masons. And, there was that pesky number 33 that kept cropping up all over the place. The more I looked into the "number business," the more confusing it became. Anyone who seeks to do research into "conspiracy theories" - who is serious and honest and fair - will eventually conclude, as Dr. Robert A. Morey (who was, by the way, an anti-Masonic researcher) wrote:
Naturally, when one is considering the "secret significance" of numbers, Pythagorean Mathematics will be among the earliest considerations. Manly Hall wrote that:
Everyone who has attended public school and paid the slightest attention in math class knows that one. The problem is: what does it really mean that is is the "true key to philosophic mathematics?" What does C2=A2+B2 have to tell us? Accounts of the travels and studies of Pythagoras differ, but most historians agree that he visited many countries and studied at the feet of many masters. Supposedly, after having been initiated into the Eleusinian mysteries, he went to Egypt and was initiated into the Mysteries of Isis. He then traveled to Phoenicia and Syria and was initiated into the Mysteries of Adonis. After that, he traveled to the valley of the Euphrates and learned all the secrets of the Chaldeans still living in the area of Babylon. Finally, he traveled to Media and Persia, then to India where he was a pupil and initiate of the Brahmins there. Sounds like he had all the bases covered. Pythagoras was said to have invented the term "philosopher" in preference to the word "sage" since the former meant one who is attempting to find the truth, and the latter means one who knows the truth. Apparently Pythagoras didn't think he had the whole banana. Pythagoras started a school at Crotona in Southern Italy and gathered students and disciples there whom he supposedly instructed in the principles of the secrets that had been revealed to him. He considered mathematics, music and astronomy to be the foundation of all the arts and sciences.When he was about sixty years old, he married one of his disciples and had seven children. I guess he was a pretty lively senior citizen! His wife was, apparently, quite a woman in her own right and she carried on his work after he was assassinated by a band of murderers incited to violence by a student whom he refused to initiate. The accounts of Pythagoras' murder vary. Some say he and all his disciples were killed, others say that he may have escaped because some of his students protected him by sacrificing themselves and that he later died of a broken heart when he realized the apparent fruitlessness of his efforts to illuminate humanity. The experts say that very little remains of the teachings of Pythagoras in the present time unless it has been handed down in secret schools or societies. And, naturally, every secret society on the planet claims to have this "initiated" knowledge to one extent or another. It is possible that there exists some of the original secret numerical formulas of Pythagoras, but the sad fact is that there is no real evidence of it in the writings that have issued from these groups for the past millennium. Though everyone discusses Pythagoras, no one seems to know any more than the post-Pythagorean Greek speculators who "talked much, wrote little, knew less, and concealed their ignorance under a series of mysterious hints and promises." There seems to be a lot of that going around these days! Even Plutarch did not pretend to be able to explain the significance of the geometrical diagrams of Pythagoras. However, he did make the most interesting suggestion that the relationship which Pythagoras established between the geometrical solids and the gods was the result of images seen in the Egyptian temples. The question we would ask is: what do geometrical solids have to do with "gods?" Albert Pike, the great Masonic symbolist, also admitted that there were many things that he couldn't figure out. In his Symbolism for the 32nd and 33rd degrees he wrote: "I do not understand why the 7 should be called Minerva, or the cube, Neptune. ...Undoubtedly the names given by the Pythagoreans to the different numbers were themselves enigmatical and symbolic - and there is little doubt that in the time of Plutarch the meanings these names concealed were lost. Pythagoras had succeeded too well in concealing his symbols with a veil that was from the first impenetrable, without his oral explanation."Manly Hall writes: "This uncertainty shared by all true students of the subject proves conclusively that it is unwise to make definite statements founded on the indefinite and fragmentary information available concerning the Pythagorean system of mathematical philosophy."But, of course, in the present time, there is a whole raft of folks who don't let such remarks stop them. Any number of modern gurus claim to have discovered the secrets of "Sacred Geometry!" Not only that, they don't seem to have even studied the matter deeply at all, missing many of the salient points that ARE evident in the fragments of Pythagorean teachings. Regarding this, there is a passage in Foucault's Pendulum, by Umberto Eco, that explicates the problem:
The idea has been promoted with great vigor for over a thousand years that so-called Kabbalists and "interpreters of mysteries" can discover with their incredibly tortuous methods The Truth, completely misses the point of a truth that is far more ancient: Mathematics is the language of Nature.The Pythagoreans declared arithmetic to be the mother of the mathematical sciences. This idea was based on the fact that geometry, music, and astronomy are dependent upon arithmetic, but arithmetic is not dependent upon them. In this sense, geometry may be removed but arithmetic will remain; but if arithmetic be removed, geometry will be eliminated. In the same way, music depends on arithmetic. Eliminating music affects arithmetic only by limiting one of its expressions. The size, form, and motion of the celestial bodies is determined by the use of geometry and their harmony and rhythm by the use of music. If astronomy is taken away, neither geometry nor music is harmed; but if geometry and music are done away with, astronomy is destroyed. The priority of both geometry and music to astronomy is therefore established and arithmetic is prior to all of them, being primary and fundamental. Playing endless games with numbers demonstrates only that which cannot be otherwise. The real secret seems to be much more profound and most, if not nearly all, "seekers" of truths never penetrate beyond the surface of the matter. So, I could see that there was a lot of nonsense being propagated in the present day, mostly by people who had not bothered to study of history of metaphysical and occult matters. But, even with such an opinion in my mind, I could not help but notice the repeated occurrences of the number 33 in not only mystical literature, but also in world events of great import. Or, so it seemed. I wonder if all the MANY events of significance were cataloged, would we find a preponderance of these so-called mystical numbers, or would we find a spread of numbers that indicate no statistical significance? Just because SOME events occurred on the 33rd parallel, did that signify it was a "Masonic Conspiracy?" How many other events of similar significance have occurred at places and times that have no "occult" significance at all? But, of course, those that do, possibly by virtue of pure chance, get all the attention while everything else is ignored. On the other hand, the idea was growing in my mind that such "synchronicities" or appearances of certain numbers and characteristics of events, WERE a sort of "clue" that the veil between dimensions and densities had been breached, either accidentally or deliberately. But who or what was doing it was still at issue. But, clearly, the number 33 was being used by SOME occultists at various points to signify something, even if it was supposedly initiated by Bacon with his "33 cipher." So, the only right thing to do, I thought, was to ask the Cassiopaeans about this. It seemed to be a well-established "clue" that was very popular and certainly did appear to be behind or related to a lot of mysterious events. An even deeper question seemed to me to be: If the number 33 was a code indicating both the presence and action of the Secret Masters, just WHY was this number the one selected? If mathematics is the "Language of Nature," just what was Nature saying? With the new complexity of the picture, it was pretty clear to me that all of the old explanations just were not going to hold up to scrutiny. I wanted to ask, with no prejudice or anticipation about the answer just WHAT did this number 33 REALLY mean? I was interested in getting to the "Pythagorean" level of secrets. So, even though we have already looked at portions of this session, let's look at it again in it's entirety.
Here
we see that the Cassiopaeans have immediately diverted my attention to
the number 11, which is a divisor of 33. (3 X 11 = 33; 33 divided by 11=3,
33 divided by 3= 11)
Again,
they are diverting me to the number 11. And you are about to see how
totally dense I can be!
And
here, even though I didn't know it at the time, was one of the chief clues
they were dropping in my lap. My first thought was, of course, the 11th
house of astrology: Aquarius, which happens to be my own sun sign.
Note
that they didn't answer my question directly, but redirected my thinking
to the 3rd house so that we have the two elements that make up 33, i.e.
11 X 3. The idea of the "gods" of the signs, i.e. Mercury and
Saturn (Uranus was a later addition AFTER Pythagoras) did not occur to
me.
Well, in retrospect, I was completely missing the obvious. The 3rd house and the 11th house "create a foundation." And we note that, from the Cassiopaean point of view, Aquarius precedes Gemini in the elements given.
And,
of course when the Cassiopaeans indicate three dots in a row, they want
me to go deeper. But, at the time, I really didn't know how or where they
could possibly be going with this.
Again, in retrospect, the Cassiopaeans are interrupting my flow of assumptions with a new term.
At this point in time, I am ashamed to admit that I had never heard of
the term "Phi" (even if I did know about the common term "Golden
Ratio"), and I assumed that the C's had made a mistake and that they
really meant to say "pi" which even I, the math idiot, had heard
of! So, I framed the next question in terms of my assumption.
I
had a calculator!
And,
even though they said "no" to my question, I continued on in
my assumptions.
I think the fact that I was just plowing along and ignoring everything
the Cassiopaeans were saying must have caused some consternation. They
changed tactics.
Well,
that sure described me at the moment! I was just NOT seeing! Even if I
had the objective of asking open questions, I HAD come to the session
with some strong assumptions about what the answers SHOULD be, and I was
shooting myself in the foot with every question. Well, I sort of gave
up on the number 33 in frustration because the answers weren't going where
I thought they ought to go and diverted off in another tangent.
Remember
that Yin-Yang circle of the previous discussion about the Quorum? The
Cassiopaeans are here indicating that there is a subtle, but distinct
difference between the Brotherhood of the Serpent and the Quorum. Yes,
the Quorum is a group with advanced knowledge and abilities, but their
objectives and intent are to preserve Free Will for all, while the objectives
of the Brotherhood are to manipulate, dominate and control others.
Boy, did I ever! I was now completely disoriented. The idea of the Pyramid being associated with the STS oriented "faction" sort of threw me off. And there was a definite suggestion here that the number 33 was associated with the Consortium of humans and aliens who ruled the world from behind the scenes: The Brotherhood of the Serpent. This reminded me of something else the Cassiopaeans had said at one earlier point that distressed me because it went against the standard metaphysical and occult teachings:
And we find here the idea that Abraham was a "betrayer" of a prior covenant when he made the covenant with Jehovah. And this will prove to be EXTREMELY interesting later on. But, back to the numbers. When I asked about the number 33, I was directed to the number 11, Astrology and a "Matrix" of some sort. Not only that, but all the "occult" ideas, practices and teachings that I had studied for so many years were being implicated as "keep busy activities" of manipulation from higher levels. And, when you dig into anything "occult," somehow you always find yourself confronting Kaballah. A "matrix" is defined as "the womb" or "that within which and from which something originates or develops." In math, a matrix is "a set of numbers or terms arranged in rows and columns between parentheses or double lines." More technically, it is "a rectangular array of numbers or other elements..." having application as computational devices in such widely diversified fields as economics, psychology, statistics, engineering, physics, and mathematics. In mathematics, matrices are useful tools in the study of linear systems of algebraic equations, linear differential equations, linear mappings and transformations, and bilinear and quadratic forms. Matrices can be regarded as generalized numbers, and their utility in applications depends on the possibility of combining them in certain definite ways. The product of a matrix A and a number a is called a scalar product and is obtained by multiplying every element of A by a. The term "scalar," in mathematics, is synonymous with "real" as in real number or real function. A vector is a directed line segment and, as such, has magnitude and direction. Many physical quantities such as velocity, acceleration and force, are VECTORS. What this means is that, using a matrix, one can establish vectors which can then be used to calculate a scalar product, which is simply a number that can mean anything depending on how it is used. When we think about what the Cassiopaeans were saying, or trying to say, against the impenetrable thick-headedness of yours truly, we come to this:
In other words: Kaballah. Basically, Kaballah developed as a way to play games with numbers and letters as described above. One school endeavors to find beneath the letters of the "sacred text," i.e. The Torah, all references to the ten Sefirot. The Sefirot can be compared to a theory of cosmic chains or levels of reality of the emanations of God. A hierarchy of power, that is. The Kabbalist uses the Torah as an "instrument." They affirm that, beneath its letters, beneath the stories and events depicted there, there are "secrets" waiting for the enterprising Kabbalist to discover! Thus, the text cannot be read ONLY literally, but must also be read allegorically, hermeneutically and mystically. Notariqon is a technique of using acrostics to cipher and decipher hidden messages. The initial or final letters of a series of words generate new words. Gematria is based on the fact that, in Hebrew, numbers are indicated by letters and every word has, therefore, a numerical value. This allows mystical relationships to be seen between completely different words having completely different meanings. It is such relationships that the Kabbalist seeks to discover. Temurah is the art of anagrams. Abraham Abulafia systematically combined the letter Alef with each of the four letters of the tetragrammaton YHWH; then he vocalized each of the resulting units by every possible permutation of five vowels, thus obtaining four tables with fifty entries each!!! Eleazar ben Yudah of Worms went on to vocalize every unit using twice each of the five vowels, and the total number of combinations increased geometrically. [cf. Idel, 1988] The Kabbalist has an unlimited number of options as to how to interpret the Torah, but the important thing was that they believed that this was more than just interpretation: it was the very method whereby God created the world. And understanding it would admit the practitioner to the inner circles of power and control over the forces of life. So, we see the clue leads us to the idea of "Infinite Power." I hope you realize that, the Kaballah has a mind-boggling array of combinations and methods. In the end, it was thought that, by these methods, along with employing certain recitations and breathing techniques, the practitioner could pass into states of ecstasy and from there, achieve the desired magical powers. Because, in the end, the objective of Kaballah was to reproduce the same sounds with which God created the world. The Sefer Yezirah, or Book of Creation, (written in the Dark Ages, I might add, somewhere between the 2nd and 6th centuries), explicated this doctrine. According to the Sefer Yezirah, the "stones" out of which God created the world were the thirty-two ways of wisdom which were formed by the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet and the ten Sefirot. It was claimed that the primordial Torah was inscribed in black flames upon white fire and many Kabbalists denied the existence of any kind of historical development of either the Torah or Kaballah. As a result of this idea, it became widely accepted that the Kaballah was the esoteric part of the Oral Law given to Moses at Sinai. There were additional genealogies in the kabbalistic literature which were designed to support the claim of a continuity of tradition but even Hebrew scholars note that they are faulty and misconceived, and lack "any historical value." [Scholem, 1974]
Kaballah is the "tradition" of esoteric teachings of Judaism. It is, in essence, a compilation of the different mystical movements issuing from the Second Temple in Jerusalem. One thing that has to be considered when thinking of Kaballah is the fact that its admitted purpose is to:
And, as we have already noted, (and will go into more deeply later), the so-called "Second Temple" in Jerusalem may have been the First, and the forces behind its construction and the development of its theology could very well have been those very forces with designs on our freedom. So, at this point, we need to consider the roots of Kaballah, the Torah upon which it is based, as well as the "tradition." In The Curse of Cain, Dr. Regina Schwartz writes about the relationship between Monotheism and Violence, positing that Monotheism itself is the root of violence. She writes:
So,
we are seeing a clear example of what the Cassiopaeans have explicated
in their remarks:
Dr. Schwartz also writes about the idea of the 'provisional' nature of a covenant, which the Cassiopaeans mention above: that it is conditional. "Believe in me and obey me or else I will destroy you." Doesn't sound like there is any choice, does there? And we find ourselves in the face of Nazi Theophany. The chief thing that occurs to me in terms of the "believe in me" business in relation to religions, is that it constitutes a sort of 'permission,' if you will, whether it is conscious or subconscious, for the deity to take the 'vengeful' action if the agreement is broken! Riane Eisler, an acclaimed scholar, has developed what she calls "Cultural Transformation Theory," which proposes that there are two basic models of society underlying the great diversity of human culture. The first is the "Dominator Model," that can be termed a patriarchy OR matriarchy. It consists of ranking one half of humanity over another, in the broadest terms, but essentially can be any situation where any group dominates and any other group is considered inferior whether male or female, black or white, rich or poor, free or slave. The second model is what Ms. Eisler calls the "Partnership Model," which is based on the principle of "linking rather than ranking." Thus, it seems that the work of Ms. Eisler is describing precisely what the Cassiopaeans call Service to Self versus Service to Others; Networking versus judgment! As Ms. Eisler acutely points out:
In an amazing book that should be read by everyone, When God Was a Woman, Merlin Stone reveals the sexual and religious bias of many of the scholars of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries which have been responsible for the general lack of knowledge about these most ancient times. Most of these male scholars were raised in societies that embrace the male-oriented religions of Judaism or Christianity, and this obviously heavily influenced their opinions. One of them, Professor R.K. Harrison wrote of the Goddess religion: "One of its most prominent features was the lewd, depraved, orgiastic character of its cultic procedures."
In most textbooks of archaeology, the Goddess religion is referred to rather deprecatingly as a "fertility cult!" And, as Ms. Stone notes, the word "cult" always has the connotation of something less civilized than "religion," and is nearly always applied when referring to the Goddess worship, while the rituals associated with that clever ET, Jehovah/Yahweh are always reverently referred to as "Religion," with a capital! Considering the extreme monotheistic, Judeo-Christian bias of the scholars who have written the words, directed the schools, published the books, and overseen our educations for the past 1500 years or so, how else can we think but that males have always played the dominant role, and that males have always been the "doers" and "creators" and "movers and shakers" of our cultural, social and technological development? As children, most little girls of the Western world are told the story of Adam and Eve. Eve is made from Adam's rib to be his companion and helper because he was lonely. Next they are taught that Eve was foolishly gullible and was pathetically "easy" to the wiles of the serpent. She disobeyed God Almighty, and led Adam down the primrose path, and forever after, all women bore the blame for this perfidy! Not only that, but forever after, because of Eve's foolishness, all women must accept men as their masters, the representatives of the omnipotent male deity, whose wisdom and righteousness they must admire and respect with reverence and awe! Over and over again, the legend of the loss of paradise has been utilized to impress upon us the natural inferiority of women. Only Man was created in God's image... woman came later and was a poor semblance of a human being! Everywhere in our culture this story pops up over and over again! It is the foundation of poetry, art, advertising and jokes. Everywhere you look, Eve is tempting Adam to do wrong over and over again. Women are portrayed as inherently conniving, contriving, (yet somehow also gullible and simple-minded) and most of all SEXY! They clearly need a divinely appointed overseer to keep them out of trouble and there is a man around every corner just ready to do the job! Joseph Campbell wrote about the Adam and Eve myth:
The religion of the Great Mother Goddess existed and flourished for many thousands of years in the Near and Middle East before the arrival of the patriarch Abraham, the first prophet of the dominator male deity, Yahweh. Archaeologists have traced the worship of the Goddess back to the neolithic communities of about 7000 B.C., some to the Upper Paleolithic cultures of about 25,000 B.C. From Neolithic times, at least, its existence has been repeatedly attested to well into Roman Times. Yet, Bible scholars agree that Abraham lived in Canaan as late as between 1800 and 1550 B.C., a veritable Johnny-come-lately! How in the world has such a recent appearance on the world scene managed to push itself into such prominence and domination? The people of the early Neolithic cultures of the Near and Middle East may have come down from Europe, possibly the descendants of the Gravettian-Aurignacian cultures. Later, waves of more Northern people descended on both Europe and the Near East. There has been some conjecture that these were the descendants of the Mesolithic (15000 - 8000 B.C.) Maglemosian and Kunda cultures of Northern Europe. But, their arrival was NOT a gradual assimilation - it was wave after wave of aggressive invasion. These northern invaders, generally known as Indo-Europeans, brought their own religion with them: the worship of a young warrior god and a supreme father god. Their arrival in the Near East is attested to by 2400 B.C., but there may have been several earlier invasions. Archaeology reveals that, after these invasions, the worship of the Mother Goddess fluctuated from city to city. As the invaders gained more and more territory over the next two thousand years, the male began to appear as the dominant husband or even the murderer of the Goddess! Up to this point in time, writing seems to have been primarily used for the business accounts of the temples. The arriving Northern groups adopted this writing and used it for their own purposes.
Over and over again in the studies of the ancient religions it is noted that, in place after place, the goddess was debased and replaced by a male deity after the coming of the Northern Peoples. The transition was accomplished by brutally violent massacres and territorial acquisition throughout the Near and Middle East. The Northern Invaders left neither tablets nor temples to explain why or how they came to choose a male deity. These "Sons of the North Wind, Aeolus" - these Nordics - are referred to variously as Indo-Europeans, Indo-Iranians, Indo-Aryans, or simply Aryans. Their existence, once they burst upon the historical scene, is described as aggressive warriors riding two abreast in horse-drawn war chariots; or as big sailors who navigated the rivers and coastlines of Europe and the Near East. Jaquetta Hawkes writes:
The invasions of the Aryans took place in waves over a period of up to three thousand years according to standard archaeology. The invasions of the historical period are attested to by literature and artifacts, and are agreed upon by scholars. Those of prehistoric times are suggested by speculative etymological connections. What is most significant in the historic records is that these Northern invaders viewed themselves as a very superior people. They were aggressive and continually in conflict with not only the peoples they conquered, but among themselves as well. Their coming revolutionized the art of war. They introduced the horse-drawn chariot, and the charioteer became a new aristocracy. Historical, mythological and archaeological evidence suggests that it was these northern people who brought with them the concepts of light as good and dark as evil and of a supreme male deity. The arrival of the Aryans, the presentation of their male deities as superior to female deities, and the subsequent interweaving of the two theologies are recorded mythologically in each culture. It is in these myths that we can discover the attitude that led to the destruction of the Goddess. The Aryan male god, unlike the son-lover of the Goddess, was frequently depicted as a storm god, high on a mountain, blazing with the light of fire or lightning. (Haven't we heard this before?!) In many of these myths, the goddess is depicted as a serpent or dragon, associated with darkness and evil. Sometimes the dragon is neuter or even male, but in such cases, is closely associated with the goddess, usually as her son. However, in many of the older archaeological finds, the Goddess was represented by birds and wavy symbols that indicated water and/or energy. These same wavy lines are retained as the symbol of the Astrological sign of Aquarius which may be the oldest extant symbol of the Great Mother Goddess. The Goddess religion seems to have assimilated the male deities into the older forms of worship, and survived as the popular religion of the people for thousands of years after the initial Aryan invasions. But her position had been greatly lowered and continued to decline. It was the assaults of the Hebrews and eventually the Christians that finally suppressed the religion. And here we come to the most interesting thing of all: it is in the accounts of the Aryans that we find the original religious ideas of the Hebrews. There is the mountain-top god who blazes with light; there is the duality between light and darkness symbolized as good and evil; there is the myth of the male deity defeating the serpent; and there is the supreme leadership of a ruling class: the priestly Levites. All of these are to be found in both the Indo-European and Hebrew religious concepts and politics! And this leads us to the obvious suggestion: The Indo-European patterns were either adopted by the Hebrews, or the Hebrews were Indo-Europeans from the start. The Indo-Aryan attitude toward women is made clear in two sentences attributed to Indra in the Rg Veda: 'The mind of woman brooks not discipline. Her intellect has little weight.' And orthodox Jewish males daily thank god that they were not born women! The only thing that is certain is that these groups brought the worship of the male deity with them and the worship of the Goddess was systematically suppressed and eventually almost totally obliterated by monotheism, a new "variation" of the male dominator god thesis initiated by the Hebrews, and continuing into the present time as Christianity, and Islam. An interesting fact turns up in the field of archaeology. Systematic examinations of the skulls in several Anatolian sites shows that in the third millennium B.C., most of the residents were predominately doliocephalic, or long headed Mediterranean types, with only a minority of brachycephalic, or round headed Alpine types. After the beginning of the second millennium, the proportion of brachycephalic skulls increases to about 50 percent. It is the brachycephalic types that came to be know as the ruling class of the Hittite empire. The original people of Hatti became the subservient or conquered class, just as the "black headed" people of Sumeria became "slaves" of their conquerors. The invading Indo-Europeans assumed roles of royalty everywhere they went, subjugating the indigenous populations one after the other. The Indo-Europeans were bigger, and possessed military supremacy never before seen due to their horse-drawn war chariots and iron weapons. They increased their height by wearing conical hats that appear to be about 18 to 24 inches high in depictions. (These conical hats are interesting as a certain type of conical hat is representative of the alchemical initiate!) The word "iron" may be related to the word "Aryan," and the mining and smelting of iron which was associated with these peoples, was a closely guarded secret for many centuries. The original Hattians may have been related to the goddess worshipping people of Catal Huyuk which is about 125 miles from the Hittite capital of Hattusas. The goddesses of the Hatti appear to have survived from an even earlier Hattian religion. In several texts the Goddess was simply called "The Throne," a title associated with Isis in Egypt and may be related to Cassiopeia, known as the "Enthroned Queen," and the "hump of the camel," a throne of sorts. Now, Ms. Stone has brought up a very interesting thing regarding a group called Luvians, Luvischen or Louvites. They seem to be a group of Indo-Europeans who lived directly south of the Hittites in Cilicia, close to the Toros Mountains which is practically the same area as Catal Huyuk once flourished. Very little is known of these people except that they were authors of what has become known as the Hittite hieroglyphs. These are picture words that appear most often on royal monuments and in a few texts. These hieroglyphs are still, for the most part, a mystery. Professor Albright says that the Luvians occupied most of southern Asia Minor not later than the third millennium B.C. Another writer, R.A. Crossland suggests a later date. Professor Lloyd agrees with Crossland saying:
The name Luvian comes from the Hittite texts which refer to the land of these people as Luviya and their language as Luvili. French archaeologists call them Louvites; the Germans call them Luvischen. The one thing that has come out of the partial translation of their hieroglyphs is that their major deity was the storm god whose name was Tarhund, Tarhunta or Tarhuis. The only material so far found in their texts is what is referred to as the "magic type; spells and incantations inserted into ritual texts." The fact that this totally religious material was written in their own hieroglyphs while other means of writing was available could indicate that they were a priestly caste of the Indo-Europeans. Other indications that seem to confirm this are the fact that scribal schools producing myths in Hurrian, Hittite and Akkadian appear to have been located in the Luvian territory of Kizzuwatna. A priestly class of Indo-Europeans with scribal schools who worshipped the Weather God whose similarity to Jehovah in all respects, is startling, busily turning out myths for all the local and not so local populations? Magic spells and incantations? Oh, my! What have we found here?! Sounds an awful lot like what was going on in Spain and France during Medieval times when Kaballah was being developed. It is certainly beginning to look like the Hebrew religion was not, as is taught, formed in a vacuum or necessarily delivered directly from the hand or mouth of God! Both of the two creation accounts in Genesis have long been noted to be related to Mesopotamian creation stories. The stories of the origins of civilization in the Bible are markedly similar to Phoenician tales. The divine "fiat" in the beginning: "Let there be light," is derived from Egyptian myth and this motif achieved it's classic form in the cult of Heliopolis. In some of the earliest forms of this myth, there is the primeval ocean whose origin is not explained, from which emerges the creator god who is either reptilian, insect or birdlike, and he engages in the creative activity as an act of expectoration, self-fertilization, or masturbation - he "broods upon the face of the waters."
The oldest extant texts of the Old Testament in Hebrew are those found at Qumran which date only to 2 or 3 centuries before Christ. the oldest version before those were discovered was a Greek translation from about the same period! The earliest complete Hebrew text dates only from the tenth century A.D.!!! Something is wrong with this picture. It is generally believed from textual analysis, that a very small part of this bible was written about 1000 B.C. and the remainder about 600 B.C. And, the Bible as we know it, is the result of many changes throughout centuries and is contradictory in so many ways we don't have space to catalog them all! The first five books of the Bible, the Pentateuch, also known as the Torah, upon which Kaballah is based, were supposed to have been written by Moses. Early Christian and Jewish tradition held this view even though nowhere in these five books does the text say that Moses was the author. Biblical scholars generally date Abraham to about 1800 - 1700 B.C. The same scholars date Moses to 1300 or 1250 B.C. However, if we track the generations as listed in the Bible, we find that there are only seven generations between and including these two patriarchal figures! Four hundred years is a bit long for seven generations. Allowing 35 to 40 years per generation, places Abraham at about 1550 B.C. and Moses at about 1300 B.C. Tracking back to Noah, using the generations listed in the Bible, one arrives at a date of about 2000 to 1900 B.C. - about the time of the arrival of the Indo-Europeans into the Near East. Using the Bible as source material presents a number of very serious problems. There are many contradictions in the text that cannot be reconciled by the standard theological mental gymnastics. In some places, events are described as happening in a certain order, and later the Bible will say that those events happened in a different order. In one place, the Bible will say that there are two of something, and in another it will say that there were 14 of the same thing. One one page, the Bible will say that the Moabites did something, and then a few pages later, it will say that the Midianites did exactly the same thing. There is even an instance in which Moses is described as going to the Tabernacle before Moses built the Tabernacle! (I guess Moses was a time traveler!) There are things in the Pentateuch that pose problems: it includes things that Moses could not have known if he lived when he is claimed to have lived. And, there is one case in which Moses said something he could not have said: the text gives an account of Moses' death, which it is hardly likely that Moses described. The text also states that Moses was the humblest man on earth! Well, as one commentator noted, it is not likely that the humblest man on earth would point out that he is the humblest man on earth! All of these problems were taken care of for most of the past two thousand years by the Inquisition. Meanwhile, even the Jewish commentators took care of the problems in novel ways. The contradictions were not contradictions, they were only "apparent contradictions!" They could all be explained by "interpretation!" Usually, these interpretations were more fantastic than the problems, I might add. Moses was able to "know things he couldn't have known" because he was a prophet! The medieval biblical commentators, such as Rashi and Nachmanides, were VERY skillful in reconciling the irreconcilable! In the 11th century, a real troublemaker, Isaac ibn Yashush, a Jewish court physician in Muslim Spain, mentioned the distressing fact that a list of Edomite kings that appears in Genesis 36 named a few kings who lived long after Moses was already dead. Ibn Yashush suggested the obvious, that the list was written by someone who lived after Moses. He became known as "Isaac the Blunderer." The guy who memorialized clever Isaac this way was a fellow named Abraham ibn Ezra, a 12th century rabbi in Spain. But Ibn Ezra presents us with a conundrum because he also wrote about problems in the text of the Torah. He alluded to several passages that appeared not to be from Moses' own hand because they referred to Moses in the third person, used terms Moses would not have known, described places that Moses had never been, and used language that belonged to an altogether different time and place than the milieu of Moses. He wrote, very mysteriously, "And if you understand, then you will recognize the truth. And he who understands will keep silent." So, why did he call Ibn Yashush a "Blunderer?" Obviously because the guy had to open his big mouth and give away the secret that the Torah was not what it was cracked up to be and lots of folks who were totally "into" this Jewish mysticism business would lose interest. And keeping the interest of the students and seekers after power was a pretty big business. It still is. In 14th century Damascus, a scholar by the name of Bonfils wrote a work in which he said "And this is evidence that this verse was written in the Torah later, and Moses did not write it..." He wasn't even denying the "revealed" character of the Torah, just making reasonable comment. Three hundred years later, his work was reprinted with this comment edited out! In the fifteenth century, Tostatus, Bishop of Avila also pointed out that the passages about the death of Moses couldn't have been written by Moses. He then said that there was an "old tradition" that Joshua, Moses successor, wrote this part of the account. A hundred years later, Luther Carlstadt commented that this was difficult to follow because the account of Moses' death is written in the same style as the text that precedes it. Well, of course, things were beginning to be examined more critically with the arrival of Protestantism, and the Inquisition tried, but failed, to keep a complete grip on the matter. But, it's funny what belief will do. In this case, it was decided that the problem was solvable by claiming that, yes, Moses wrote the Torah, but editors went over them later and added an occasional word or phrase of their own! Wow. Glad we solved that one! The really funny thing is that one of the proponents of this idea of editorial insertions, who was really trying to preserve the "textus receptus" status of the Bible, was blacklisted by the Catholic Index. His book was put on the list of "prohibited books!" Well, finally, after hundreds of years of tiptoeing around this issue, some scholars came right out and said that Moses didn't write the majority of the Pentateuch. The first to say it was Thomas Hobbes. He pointed out that the text sometimes states that this or that is so "to this day." The problem with this is that a writer describing a contemporary situation would not describe it as something that has endured for a very long time, "to this day." Isaac de la Peyrere, a French Calvinist, noted that the first verse of the book of Deuteronomy says "These are the words that Moses spoke to the children of Israel across the Jordan..." The problem was that the words meant to refer to someone who is on the other side of the Jordan from the writer. This means that the verse amounts to the words of someone who is WEST of the Jordan at the time of writing, who is describing what Moses said to the children of Israel on the EAST of the Jordan. The problem is exacerbated because Moses himself was never supposed to have been in Israel in his life. De la Peyrere's book was banned and burned. He was arrested and told that the conditions of his release were conversion to Catholicism and recanting his views. Apparently he perceived discretion as the better part of valor. Not too long after this, Baruch Spinoza, the famous philosopher, published what amounted to a real rabble rousing critical analysis. He claimed that the problem passages in the Bible were not isolated cases that could be solved one by one as "editorial insertions," but were rather a pervasive evidence of a third person account. He also pointed out that the text says in Deuteronomy 34 that "There never arose another prophet in Israel like Moses...." Spinoza pointed out, quite rightly, that these were the words of a person who lived a long time after Moses and had had the opportunity to make comparisons. One commentator points out that they also don't sound like the words of the "humblest man on earth!" [Friedman, 1987] Spinoza was really living dangerously because he wrote:
Spinoza had already been "excommunicated" from Judaism. Now, he was in pretty hot water with the Catholics AND Protestants! Naturally, his book was placed on the "prohibited books" list and a whole slew of edicts were issued against it. What is even more interesting is that an attempt was made to assassinate him! A converted Protestant who had become a Catholic priest, Richard Simon, undertook to refute Spinoza and wrote a book saying that the core of the Pentateuch was written by Moses, but there were "some additions." Nevertheless, these additions were clearly done by scribes who were under the guidance of God or the Holy Spirit, so it was okay for them to collect, arrange and elaborate on the text. It was still God in charge here. Well, you'd think the church would know when it was ahead. But, nope! Simon was attacked and expelled from his order by his fellow Catholics. Forty refutations of his work were written by Protestants. Only six copies of his book survived burning. One of these was translated by a guy named John Hampden who also got into some hot water. He "repudiated the opinions he had held in common with Simon ... in 1688, probably shortly before his release from the tower." [Edward Gray] Simon's idea that scribes had collected, arranged and elaborated on the textus receptus was, finally, going in the right direction. In the 18th century, three independent scholars were dealing with the problem of "doublets," or stories that are told two or more times in the Bible. There are two different stories of the creation of the world. There are two stories of the covenant between God and Abraham. There are two stories of the naming of Abraham's son Isaac, two stories of Abraham's claiming to a foreign kind that his wife is his sister, two stories of Isaac's son Jacob making a journey to Mesopotamia, two stories of a revelation to Jacob at Beth-El, two stories of God's changing Jacob's name to Israel, two stories of Moses' getting water from a rock at Meribah, and on and on. Those who were stuck in wishful thinking, believing that Moses wrote the Pentateuch, tried to claim that these doublets were always complimentary, not repetitive nor contradictory. Sometimes they had to really stretch this idea to say that they were supposed to "teach" us something by their contradictions which were not really contradictions. This explanation, however, didn't hold up against another fact: in most cases one of the two versions of a doublet would refer to the deity by the divine name, Yahweh, and the other would refer to the deity simply as "God." What this meant was that there were two groups of parallel versions of the same stories and each group was almost always consistent about the name of the deity it used. Not only that, there were various other terms and characteristics that regularly appeared in one or the other line of stories and what this demonstrated was that someone had taken two different old source documents and had done the original cut and paste job on them to make a "continuous" narrative. Well, of course, at first it was thought that one of the two source documents must be one that Moses had used as a source for the story of creation and the rest was Moses himself writing! But, it was ultimately to be concluded that both of the two sources had to be from writers who lived AFTER Moses. By degrees, Moses was being eliminated almost entirely from the authorship of the Pentateuch! I would like to note right here that this was not happening because somebody came along and said "hey, let's trash the Bible!" Nope. It was happening because there were glaring problems and each and every researcher working on this throughout the centuries was struggling mightily to retain the textus receptus status of the Bible! The only exception in this whole chain of events is our curious guy Abraham ibn Ezra, who KNEW about problems in the text of the Torah in the 12th century and enjoined others to silence! Remember what he said? "And if you understand, then you will recognize the truth. And he who understands will keep silent." And what do we see as the result of this silence? Eight hundred years of Crusades, the Inquisition, and general suppression. But, we'll come back to that. Back to our chain of events: in the nineteenth century, Biblical scholars figured out that there were not just two major sources in the Pentateuch; there were, in fact, four. It was realized that the first four books were not just doublets, but there were also triplets that converged with other characteristics and contradictions leading to the identification of another source. Then, it was realized that Deuteronomy was a separate source altogether. More than that, there were not only the original source documents, there was the work of the "mysterious editor." Thus, after years of suffering, bloodshed and even death over the matter, it was realized that somebody had "created" the Bible by assembling four different source documents into a "continuous" history. After much further analysis, it was concluded that most of the laws and much of the narrative of the Pentateuch were not even part of the time of Moses. And, that meant that it couldn't have been written by Moses at all. More than that, the writing of the different sources were not even that of persons who lived during the days of the kings and prophets, but were evidentially products of writers who lived toward the end of the biblical period! Many scholars just couldn't bear the results of their own work. A German scholar who had identified the Deuteronomy source exclaimed that such a view "suspended the beginnings of Hebrew history not upon the grand creations of Moses, but upon airy nothings." Other scholars realized that what this meant was that the picture of biblical Israel as a nation governed by laws based on the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants was completely false. Another way of putting it was that the Bible claimed a history for the first 600 years of Israel that probably never existed. Well, they couldn't handle this. So along came Wellhausen (1844-1918) to the rescue. Wellhausen synthesized all of the discoveries so as to preserve the belief systems of the religious scholars. He amalgamated the view that the religion of Israel had developed in three stages with the view that the documents were also written in three stages, and then he defined these stages based on the content of the "stage." He tracked the characteristics of each stage, examining the way in which the different documents expressed religion, the clergy, the sacrifices and places of worship as well as the religious holidays. He considered the legal and narrative sections and the other books of the Bible. In the end, he provided a "believable framework" for the development of Jewish history and religion. The first stage was the "nature/fertility" period; the second was spiritual/ethical period; and the last was the "priestly/legal" period. As Friedman notes: To this day, if you want to disagree, you disagree with Wellhausen. If you want to pose a new model, you compare its merits with those of Wellhausen's model. I should also note that a professor of Old Testament, William Robertson Smith, who taught at the Free Church of Scotland college at Aberdeen, and who was the editor of the Encyclopedia Britannica, was put on trial before the church on the charge of heresy for promoting the work of Wellhausen. He was cleared, but the tag "the wicked bishop" followed him to his grave. Opposition to critical study of the Bible has been spearheaded, throughout the centuries, by the Catholic Church. But, curiously, in the modern day, the Catholics are more open to examination of the text that the new American Christian Fundamentalists who resemble, more than anything, Holy Crusaders and Inquisitors! Nevertheless, analysis of the Bible has proceeded. the book of Isaiah was traditionally thought to have been written by the prophet Isaiah who lived in the eighth century B.C. As it happens, most of the first half of this book fits such a model. But, chapters 40 through 66 are apparently written by someone who lived about 200 years later! New tools and methods of our modern time have made it possible to do some really fine work in the areas of linguistic analysis and relative chronology of material. Additionally, there has been a veritable archaeological frenzy since Wellhausen! This archaeological work has produced an enormous amount of information about Egypt, Mesopotamia, and other regions surrounding Israel, which includes clay tablets, inscriptions on the walls of tombs, temples and habitations, and even papyri. And here we find another problem: in all the collected sources, both Egyptian and west Asian, there are virtually NO references to Israel, its "famous people" and founders, its Biblical associates, or anything else prior to the 12th century B.C. And the fact is, for 400 years after that, no more than half a dozen allusions can be deduced. This same problem finds correspondence in the Bible itself. The Bible displays absolutely no knowledge of Egypt or the Levant during the 2nd millennium B.C. The Bible says nothing about the Egyptian empire spreading over the entire eastern Mediterranean, (which it did), there is no mention of the great Egyptian armies on the march (which they were), and no mention of marching Hittites moving against the Egyptians (which they did), and especially no mention of Egyptianized kinglets ruling Canaanite cities (which was the case). The great and disastrous invasion of the Sea Peoples during the second millennium is not mentioned in the Bible. In fact, Genesis described the Philistines as already settled in the land of Canaan at the time of Abraham! The names of the great Egyptian kings are completely absent from the Bible. In other places, historical figures who were NOT heroic have been transformed by the Bible into heroes as in the case of the Hyksos Sheshy (Num. 13:22). In another case, the sobriquet of Ramesses II is given to a Canaanite general in error. The Egyptian king who was supposed to assist Hosea in his rebellion of 2 Kings 17:4 has suffered the indignity of having his city given as his name. The Pharaoh Shabtaka turns up in the Table of Nations in Gen 10:7 as a Nubian tribe! The errors of confirmable history and archaeology pile higher and higher the more one learns about the actual times and places so that the idea that comes to mind again and again is that the writers of the Bible must have lived in the 7th and 6th centuries B.C., and knew almost nothing about the events of only a few generations before them.
Now, back to our Louvites/Luvites/Levites. Judging by the artifacts and partly deciphered texts, these Luvites seem to have been a separate, priestly class of Indo-Europeans much like the Brahmins in India. Their "sacred texts" were used exclusively for votive rituals and inscriptions on royal monuments. Many of the scribal schools were located in their territory suggesting that the Luvites used the Hurrian, Hittite and Akkadian languages to disseminate their ideas while retaining their ancient hieroglyphs as a private and secret manner of writing. The Brahmins of India, the priestly class, made fire sacrifices one of the most important aspects of their religion. Giuseppe Sormani writes that in the early Sanskrit Yajurveda, a collection of Brahmin sacrificial and ritual prayer formulas dated shortly after the Rg Veda,
The one group that stands apart from the Hebrew people as a whole, is the priestly Levites. Hmmm... that word is suspiciously similar to Luvites, yes? Indeed! According to the law of Jehovah/Yaweh, the Levites were to remain a very exclusive group, marrying only other Levites. Moses is described as the son of a Levite mother and father! Only Levites were acceptable as priests of Yahweh. They were forbidden not only to marry outside their tribe, but they also could not marry a woman who was a widow, divorced or had ever had sexual relations with another man. The Levites were sole judges of disputes, "Their voice shall be decisive in all cases of dispute" (Deut. 21:6) They had possession of the trumpets of the congregation and only they were allowed to sound them. They commanded military strategy, and they were exempt from most nasty jobs like being warriors, carrying out the trash and so forth. Fire sacrifices were very important rituals of the Levites. The first ten sections of Leviticus are totally concerned with fire sacrifices. These sacrifices were to be made twice daily as well as on the Sabbath, and other special times. The curious thing about this is the fact that the prophet Jeremiah, right there in the Bible, denies that all of this "temple cult" business had any basis in the old traditions! "Keep on with your burnt offerings and sacrifice," he represents Yahweh as saying to the people, "and eat the flesh. But I did not speak with your forefathers and I issued no command to them on the day I brought them out of Egypt concerning burnt offering and sacrifice!" The Levites had the right to eat the food offerings that were brought to the Tent of the Presence. In this way, they were served by all the other Israelites with cattle and foodstuffs of all kinds. Other gifts to the Levites were commanded by Yahweh, such as silver and gold and property. Levites who sold their houses had the right of redemption, and if they did not pay to redeem it, it would be returned automatically at the seven-year jubilee. If a man of another tribe chose to sell his house to a Levite, the Levite had the sole right to decide upon the price. If the man wanted to buy it back he was expected to pay another twenty percent of the value. On and on we read of the benefits to the Levites assigned by Yahweh/Jehovah; gifts and "allotted portions" and tithes and clothing and on and on. And, all these laws, first written by the Levites, were then placed in the care and keeping of the Levites, who then were the only ones able to read them, interpret them, change them. What a racket! Now, the Levites are said to be descended from one of Jacob's twelve sons, Levi. Tracing the genealogies, Moses would have been the great-grandson of Levi. This, of course, does not tally with the number of males that were supposed to have left Egypt. The Levites claimed 22,000 males among them - quite a feat for a bunch of priests in only three generations! There sure wasn't much time left for fire sacrifices! The far more likely scenario is that the Levites created this heritage to justify their relationship to the other tribes who were very likely just disenfranchised peoples of all types that they had assembled under the aegis of their god. This may explain why Jacob, who was supposedly the father of the twelve tribes, was called Israel, rather than the appelation being applied to Abraham who is generally considered the first father of his people. I think that there may be more to this 12 tribes and 12 sons business than that, but we will come back to it later. Another curious connection is the actual name of the Levites. The Hebrew name for these priests, Lewi and Levi are much the same word. It is here that Ms. Stone makes a rather interesting series of relationships that may have significance later. She points out that, in Latin we have lavo which means to wash in a stream which flows, while lavit means to pour. In Hittite, lahhu also means to pour. In French we have laver, to wash and in German we have lawine, meaning avalanche and the English word lavish. Levo in Latin means lift and is especially associated with the sunrise. In Sanskrit lauha is "glowing redness," while lightning is lohla. In German we have lohe, meaning blaze or flame, while in Danish lue means to go up in flames. In English, the word lava, the German lave, and the French lave, each meaning the blazing molten mass that pours from a volcanic mountain, may give us the key to the two concepts in unity: that which is light and flaming, while still pouring almost as a liquid at the same time. Sons of Light and Fire. The mountain top Weather God who issues from DEEP within the Earth! At Qumran, where was found the oldest extant Hebrew texts, there was a scroll discovered that was completely new to Biblical scholars entitled The Scroll of the War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness. This text consists of the plans for a battle that is about to be fought. This scroll reveals that the Levites were still in control at that time, and may be still in control at the present! The name of the Hebrews as Yehudi, or Judah, is rather close to the Sanskrit word for warrior: Yuddha. As Ms. Stone points out, if these speculations, supported by so much circumstantial evidence, hold up to further investigation, then what are we to make of the Aryan versus Jew stance of WWII? It becomes more than a tragedy, it becomes utterly ironic that the monster of monotheism created by the Hebrews turned around to devour them. On the other hand, maybe it was intentional. It is even beginning to look like the Hebrews, as an ethnic group, were actually created for "use" by the members of the Control System. And we have to keep in mind also, that the same Control System seems to be behind the development of Kaballah and the many related occult/mystical practices, in which case we have to ask ourselves why? But, before we move one, let us make one last observation: It was sometime before and directly after WWI that nasili was being accepted as the real name of the Hittite language, and Nesa or Nasa, their first capital. The original name of the Hittite invaders may have been Nesians or Nasians. Nuzi was the capital of the Indo-European nation of Mitanni. And this brings up another connection between the Hittites and the Hebrews, the use of the word nasi for prince from which we derive nazarene. We can't help but observe here how close to these words is the term Nazi. With the knowledge that the worship of the Goddess was violently overturned by invading Indo-Europeans, we may better understand the transitions and inversions that have occurred in our myths and legends. And, if we can come to some understanding of WHO and WHAT this Yahweh/Jehovah was, who spoke to Moses from the summit of Mount Horeb and Mount Sinai, we may discover an explanation for why the patriarchal laws and attitudes of the Levite priests were bent upon the destruction of the Goddess religion. But keep in mind the remark above that the evidence for the continued existence of an inner core of Levites, possibly completely unknown to the Levite priests of the Temple at Jerusalem, is suggested by The Scroll of the War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness. Now, for those who think that I am proposing a "Jewish Conspiracy," DON'T EVEN GO THERE! If you haven't yet figured out that the differences between the Jews and the Aryans disappears in the inner circles, you haven't been paying attention! Just as there was a Dark Age surrounding the period of time in which the Old Testament came into being, during which time Monotheistic Judaism was imposed forcibly on the Canaanites, and we have only the Old Testament itself to attest to its validity; we have a similar period of Dark Ages enveloping the development and codification of the New Testament and the imposition of Monotheistic Christianity on the Western World. Don't you find that curious? Out of this history emerged what is known today as Kaballah. And, so we come back in a circle to the remarks about the 3-5 code: Well, it was difficult to know what to think about all of it. I decided, at one point, to ask the Cassiopaeans directly about Kaballah:
So, again, we have the idea that there are seeds of truth but, for the most part, what we have today is corrupted so long ago that great care must be taken to compare and analyze; and most especially, before putting any of it into practice! But, just to give a clue to those who want something to mull over before I get to it, remember the 22 letters of the Hebrew Alphabet? The ones that are supposed to be so special and magical? Well, the Phoenician, or West Semitic, alphabet was the starting point of all the later European alphabets, as well as the Hebrew and Arabic alphabets. The definitive version of the Phoenician alphabet is the inscription on the sarcophagus of King Ahiram of Byblos, dated to about 1000 B.C. It, too, was a systematized alphabet of 22 characters. Hebrew script was formalized around the same time as the early Greek, but the characters took a different form. Hebrew was, and still is, written from right to left. Resh, with the phonetic value "R", resembles the lower case Roman 'r", written the opposite way around. BOTH the Greek and Hebrew alphabets have parallel esoteric meanings. What, then, makes Hebrew so mystical and mysterious? Well, we have already mentioned the Sefer Yezirah, the "cornerstone" of Kaballah which details this doctrine. In Kabbalistic Judaism, it is stated that the God, Jehovah, is not transcendent, but is rather subordinate to a higher form of existence, the "Ain-Soph." The Ain-Soph exists beyond the realms of cause and effect, beyond desire, beyond the realms of being and non-being. And, the "god of creation" is only an agent of the Ain-Soph. The creation of the universe itself has come directly from the Ain-Soph through a complex process, achieved by the operation of the "emanations," or "sephiroth" which are supposed to be 10 in number, the same as the fingers on two hands. However, most kabbalistic images of the Sephiroth in the tree of life diagrams include an 11th Sephira for which various explanations are given. If we just "turn off the sound" and look at the picture, what we see are 11 sephiroth, 22 letters of an alphabet which is a multiple of 11. Then, if we think about the major arcana of the Tarot, which is supposed to have strong Kabbalistic relations, we find the number 22 appearing again. If we put those items together with the fact that the Cassiopaeans have tried to point us in the direction of examining the number 11 more closely, we may come to some interesting conclusions.
What happened to the hand of God inscribing the fire letters and all that? What are we going to do with all the mystical allusions to this most holy of languages and works? Could it be possible that we might obtain as much enlightenment by applying the Kabbalistic practices to a copy of War and Peace or The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire? I have the feeling that this is the case. Anybody game to try it? Getting back to our story, what gradually dawned on me was the fact that all the centuries of Kabbalistic Gematria and Notariqon and Temurah might be nothing but a distraction from truth. Yes, we can see intimations of certain threads that bear closer scrutiny, and the Cassiopaeans have suggested that we might figure out something important if we examine astrology as an 11 house system. We also find confirmation of this number 11 as an important number by simple virtue of the numbers of letters of the alphabets along with the major arcana of the Tarot. But then, there was the odd mention of Medusa and "heads." What did Medusa mean in relation to this? Were the "heads" the sephiroth of the tree of life, since there are, in some versions, 11? It is called the "unseen sephira" which "functions only in particular conditions. Daat is "the veil of the bride" beyond which lies knowledge and being of the Objective Universe. One writer on Kaballah says:
That is to say, exactly 3 triangles. And what was said about triangles?
And we come back again to the 3-5 code which is what we ended up with by asking about the number 33. I have to admit that my first ideas about this 3-5 code were very "kabbalistic." The "3-5 code" stuck in my mind as a means of finding some coded secret in some ancient text. I will admit that I followed this idea to an almost absurd degree, reading through and marking only the 3rd and 5th words, or reading the 35th line, or the 35th word, or the 3rd chapter, 5th word, and endless permutations thereof in a large body of "occult" literature. I created charts, diagrams, tables of permutation. I did Gematria, Notariqon and anagrams! It was becoming such an obsession that I had to deliberately will myself to stop counting everything all the time. I finally gave it up. It wasn't going anywhere. Sure, there were occasional "hits," but there were also endless nonsense combinations. When I kept notes on the results, I found that the hits were no better than chance, and I wonder if that is not the case for many so-called occultists who see only the successes of their methods, and ignore the failures. Or, they read more into the hits than are really there. As Dr. Eco says, the structure of the universe is expressed in mathematics. Is it any wonder that anything and everything relates to everything else via numbers? Another thing that struck me were the remarks about the pyramid being associated with the STS/Drachomonoid controllers. I had a lot of work invested in the Egyptian religious traditions as being of positive orientation. But, the comments about the pyramid shape being related to the Negative STS Reptoid hierarchy reminded me of something else the Cassiopaeans had said earlier in 1995:
Well, I was trying. And, along with my growing obsession with numbers, a couple of very strange things happened to me in the week following the session where the 3-5 code was brought up. The first was the beginning of a long series of Out Of Body Experiences that continued for over a year and a half, and the second was a dream accompanied by a physical "trace." And, interestingly, in the very next session, the Cassiopaeans seemed to be desperately trying to communicate some things to us without violating free will. Naturally, we had our own agenda and very often our questions were what limited us, but revealing the activities of some sort of Secret Masters of the World seemed to very much on the Cassiopaean's mind(s?). As usual, the door to strange things was opened by a seemingly innocuous question:
I
should note here that, until Col. Phil Corso published his book The Day
After Roswell, I had never heard the term "ELP." And, remember,
this session was in the latter part of 1995. Corso's book wasn't published
until several years later.
At this point, I wanted to ask about the strange experiences I had been having since the beginning of the inquiry into the "Secret Societies" business, the Out of Body Experiences. Apparently, they were not all precisely the same thing! Q: (L) Okay, I want to ask about the experience I had the other night - I had what seemed to be an OOBE the other night. Was I actually having one?Though I never again had the same intense OOBE as I did just after the introduction of the 3-5 code information, I continued to have almost regular experiences with what must be 4th density reality. I could see with my eyes closed, I could sleep without being "asleep," and be fully aware of both the "present reality," including the children and all their varied activities around me, and at the same time, a whole other world was open to me in which people came and went and talked to me and I conversed with them. It was impossible to "generate" such experiences, but this "bleed through" occurred so often that I could say that about half of my day to day experiences took place in a dual reality. I observed this phenomenon with curiosity and skepticism. I would "project" myself to where the children were to see what they were doing exactly, and then come back, make myself "orient" in this reality, and then physically go to check the observations. Over and over again, I realized that what I was doing was, in some strange sense, "real." I didn't know what was happening to me or even why, but it was sufficiently strange to keep me in an attentive state. I didn't want to talk about it too much because whenever I brought such things up to the group, it seemed that even they were not quite able to grasp what I was trying to tell them. I DID spend some time reading psychology textbooks and entries in the DMSR in an effort to determine if I was losing my mind! Exactly what I was experiencing, I wasn't sure, but some clues to the possible nature of it were given in the next session. And, again, the Cassiopaeans were using an opportunity to bring up more information about the Consortium: Q: (L) The other day I experienced one of those extended pre-sleep states, and it seemed that I was in a class and there was someone explaining things to me. What they were telling me was that during this Christmas season, certain steps would be taken by those controlling the economy, and that after Christmas, in January and February, a whole lot of stuff was going to be put into motion to send the economy into a dive of major proportions. It was not clear that it was THIS year, but that it was right after Christmas. Can you tell me where this information was coming from, and what was I experiencing? Now, aside from the interesting remarks about the economy, the significant thing for me was the remark that I was seeing "one possible future" in this semi-dream state. I wondered if that were the case for the many other instances of "bleed through." Was I at some sort of point of "branching" of the universe, where the energies are such that many realities are present in potential? And, again, the Cassiopaeans urged "networking" as something that "works wonders." Was I networking? I thought I was. I was sure talking to a lot of people and working very hard to put a magazine together that would become an "organ" for the Cassiopaean material. But getting the work done alone was a crushing labor. The entire burden, it seemed, was mine. One of the things in the Matrix books that interested me particularly, considering the comments made by the Cassiopaeans about Hitler and the creation of a "Master Race," was the idea that it was the Germans/Nazis who were really the Secret Masters of the world. It was further suggested that they were producing the whole show, including the alien scenario, because they had been able to construct a Time Machine. There were some variations on this theory, including an evil Consortium of Nazis and American Secret Groups involved in mind control experiments, among other things. So, I brought it up: Q: (L) Did the Germans construct a time machine during WWII?At this point, I went off in other directions so I will omit that material. However, right at the end of this same session, I remembered something the Cassiopaeans had said almost a year earlier right as we were winding up another session. The issue of the present moment was the UFO conference in Gulf Breeze that was to be held rather soon. We were talking about attending and distributing our magazine, the Aurora Journal, and I was reminded of the fact that the Cassiopaeans had suggested going to a Gulf Breeze conference "in the spring" at a time when the Gulf Breeze conferences had always been held in the fall. The older session went as follows: Q: (T) Any other questions? Now, the strange thing about this UFO conference that we were talking about was that the normal schedule was for the spring conference to be held in Tampa and the fall conference to be held in Gulf Breeze. As it turned out, that very year the fall Gulf Breeze conference was nearly canceled because of a hurricane! That, in itself, was an extremely interesting event. We had been planning on attending this particular conference and Terry and Jan had already made the reservations. Hurricane Opal was spinning around in the Gulf and everyone was waiting to see where it would come ashore:
So, we canceled our reservations. As it turned out, the hurricane did hit Gulf Breeze almost dead on, and the conference was moved to Mobile. Clearly, there was no bomb blast or tornado so if any of the above mentioned possibilities did play out, it would seem to have been mass abductions and mental controls initiated. As a result of this hurricane, the organizers of the conference decided to switch the schedule around so that the Gulf Breeze conference was held in the spring the following year, 1996. But, NOT in May. In March. So, even if the Cassiopaeans were picking up something about this specific switcheroo, it was not a bull's eye exactly. Another thing that has happened since that hurricane is that the organizers of the conference broke up their organization and reformed. They no long hold "UFO" conferences, but rather focus on "Metaphysical/New Age" assemblies. So, it may be that there was a mass abduction and mental controls that initiated dissension. But, it would be difficult to make Ufologists any more fragmented and factional than they already were and are! But, getting back to the first spring UFO conference in Gulf Breeze: Q: (L) This year the UFO conference in Gulf Breeze is in the Spring. Is this the one we are supposed to go to? When I brought up the subject of going to a weekend UFO conference with my ex-husband (to whom I was married at the time of the events we are discussing), he didn't make any real objections but, as the days passed, his sniping and complaining and finding fault (which was standard behavior for him), rose to new levels of intensity. I was still in therapy three times a week from the automobile accident back in December of 1994, and this was one of the tools he used against me. Obviously, if I could go to a UFO conference, I didn't need any help with the house or the children. Not only that, but he began to covertly encourage the children to NOT do their own chores. When I would tell them that they were grounded or otherwise restricted for not doing their work, he would override my authority and tell me sneeringly that "that's what mother's are for - to take care of their families." Obviously, by his definition, that meant being a hand servant and a doormat to everyone in the house. The situation escalated daily and I had a complete relapse from progress in my therapy. The nervous tremors in my hands increased, the various nerve pains, numbness and partial paralysis that I had begun to overcome slowly, came crashing back and I became so depressed over this that I was hardly able to function at all. Not only that, but I suddenly acquired an ear infection that made the side of my head swell out two or three inches. There was no way I could get on an airplane with an infection like that. The doctor put me on 850 mg. of Augmentin 4 times daily, which reduced the infection, but it just wouldn't go away completely. But, the struggles I was having with my health did not seem to matter to either my ex-husband or, because of his attitude and manipulations, my children. During the times I was unable to even get out of bed, I would lie there listening to my husband and kids merrily watching television in the next room; knowing that they were all deliberately making as much mess and noise in the house as they possibly could; knowing that he was intentionally instigating it; and that if I said a word I would be shouted down as a woman who no longer wanted to be a wife and mother! I had been so determined to try to go to this conference, and it seemed that my will to do anything was slowly, but surely, being sapped. I remember lying there, feeling more alone and imprisoned than I ever had in my life; imprisoned not only by the circumstances of my life, but by the deterioration of my health. My eyes would wander to the racks of guns on the walls in the bedroom (I was not allowed to decorate the room as I might like it, but had to live in a room full of gun collections and hunting gear), and I thought how easy it would be to just give him his freedom, give the children what they wanted, which amounted to a life of no rules and restrictions, and obtain peace and freedom from pain for myself. All it would take would be one singular act of ... what? Was it courage I lacked? But then I thought about the children. Even if they were being manipulated by him, what would it mean to them, especially the baby, to hear a gunshot and run in to find their mother with half a head and her brains splattered all over the walls? I couldn't do that to them. No matter what, I had to endure the pain and the frustration. It was a burden I had chosen, so I needed to just square my shoulders and pick it up and carry it. But, oh! How lonely it was! As usual, I tried to find the flaw or fault in myself. Perhaps it was my attitude, or some sort of distortion of my perception. Maybe there was some simple answer - something I could do to make life more pleasant and functional for the whole family. As it was, I went to enormous efforts to make sure that the sessions and the related work interfered as little as possible with family life, but it would have been impossible for it to have no impact. Maybe I was seeing what we were doing as important when it was not? Maybe I should just give it up or, at the very least, schedule the sessions less frequently? It seemed pretty clear that, if there were no Cassiopaeans, if there were no sessions, if I returned to the Baptist fold of my husband's faith and became a dutiful and meek wife, all would be well. But I couldn't do that. The drive to learn, to resolve the issues of my past and present were too imperative. I could no longer shove things under the rug. I could no longer lie to myself and say that "God is in his heaven and all is right with the world." I had seen and experienced too much. Only a lobotomy might have helped at this point! Nevertheless, I resolved to ask the Cassiopaeans about what I could do to make life a little smoother for all our sakes. I knew it meant breaking the "no personal questions" rule, but I could see no other hope for an answer. It turned out to be a very unusual session:
But notice that the "agents" of the "attack" were the members of my family! Observation has shown me that this is most often the case.
One of the
main reasons we wanted to go to the Gulf Breeze conference was because
we were putting a magazine together, as I have mentioned before. It was
hoped that it would be an "organ" for the Cassiopaean material
since I could really think of no other affordable way to make the material
available. We planned to print a thousand copies and take them to the
conference with us and give them away with a subscription form attached
inside.
So you see what happens when you whine and complain to the Cassiopaeans! All they do is get your dander up! But, oddly, it was what I needed. Even though I desperately wanted to have somebody come and "fix" what was wrong in my life, I knew that it was unrealistic to expect anyone to clean up the mess that I had made. And the only way I knew to ask for help was to pray and meditate. So, that is what I did. As a result of my prayers, I came to some ideas and conclusions. No matter how dreadful the present situation was, I could not help but feel that my life was being guided somehow, (even if it was just "nature taking its course), and I had only to demonstrate my faith and commitment for things to work out as they should by acceptance of the situation AS IT WAS. Of course, I had the idea that if I just had enough faith, my husband would undergo some dramatic change and the dream of the "bridegroom" would come true. Until that time, I would be a good and attentive wife, do the best I could for the sake of the children, get whatever satisfaction I could get from my work, my friends and some little writing and sharing of information, and just not worry about what he did. A commitment is a promise, and I didn't break my promises. I was sure God/Nature was going to "fix it." I knew that, for the moment, I was essentially alone. I didn't have a husband; he was as much a lost child as the children were, and I accepted the responsibility of them all. I believed this to be the direction the Cassiopaeans were pointing me. If I accepted the situation as it was and did the best I could, I felt sure that it would change on its own. Never mind that my idea of this change was that what was "broken" would be "fixed!" This last session was during December. Just a few days before Christmas I was doing my Christmas baking. I remember sitting at the kitchen table, covered with dustings of flour, my girls helping me, and such an apparently happy family "scene" all around me. The kids didn't know they were being manipulated by their father; they didn't know how it was between their father and me; and I was resolved to keep it from them. They deserved happiness and stability. And, I was now trying in every way to make my husband happy as well, short of giving up my mind and my work. I redoubled my efforts to the point of absolute exhaustion so that nothing I did would interfere in the normal events of our lives so he would have nothing to complain about. But, the more I tried to juggle everything, the more demanding he became so that it was harder and harder to manage it without some sort of scene with him. Not only that, it was physically destroying me. So, there I was in my kitchen, baking Christmas goodies with my children, and feeling utterly devastated that I could not feel the happiness that I was working so hard to create around me. The radio was playing and a haunting song caught my ear...
... and I broke down and began to cry. What did it matter if I solved the mysteries of the Universe or died in the effort? No one else would ever know... No one who really cared, that is. The forces that were driving me, the Quest seemed to be mine alone. And I WAS alone. All the dreams of "Him" came flooding back and I wondered if He was somewhere on the planet wondering if I was somewhere on the planet. Again, for the millionth time I sternly reminded myself that all such thoughts were nonsense. There was no such thing as "The One." It was only romantic fairy tales at best; pathological delusions at worst. Get a grip on your mind, girl! The children were very concerned with my tears, and I explained that middle-aged mothers just do that sometimes. Nothing to be concerned about. And I pushed the thoughts back under the rug and told myself that I should be overjoyed with what I had and not be such a whiner and cry-baby for what I didn't have. But, even though my mind issued the orders, something deep inside was not listening! And the preparations continued to get the magazine ready for the Gulf Breeze conference in March.
