Ancient Advanced Technology in South America

There are a host of ancient ruins in South America, claimed by the Inca, inherited by the Inca, conquered by the Inca and built by the Inca. Although one label has stuck on each monument or ancient site, it is clear there are many layers of construction, physically and conceptually. Academics and Scholars still debate who built these, monuments, did they inherit them? Was there a Pre-Inca culture, but everyone can appreciate how advanced the ‘Inca Ancient Ruins’ found in the highlands of South America. The Inca were largest empire ever seen in the Americas and the largest in the world at that time, yet doubt is cast on their monuments and origins. Tiahuanaco, a region of Bolivia that hol...

Mysterious Advanced Astronomy in Mesoamerica

The Olmec language and Teotihuacan language are still outside this preliminary classification: the ones represented by the Olmec area and those of Teotihuacan, which are currently being studied and discovered. Though it is still difficult to prove, there is some probability that the Olmec language preceded Totonac. In contrast, it is more specific than the writings and speech of Teotihuacan, which led to Nahua's development. The Mexican population that migrated to Nicaragua later spread this language in its various variants throughout the central Valley of Mexico, even reaching the south of Mesoamerica, to Nicaragua. During the destruction and abandonment of Teotihuacan around 600, the written system of their successors, the Toltecs, was lost but may have been revived later in Aztec ideographic writing.

Sumerian Origins

A Mysterious Group of People came to settle in southern Mesopotamia, sometime around 5400BC. What is now the modern state of Iraq, the first city of Mesopotamia was founded named Eridu. Although historians have generally regarded this as the world’s first city, we have seen this challenged on numerous occasions by recent discoveries too numerous to mention here. Eridu had all the things we ordinarily associate with an ancient city: temples, administrative buildings, housing, agriculture, markets, art, and, of course, walls to keep out unsavoury characters.The elusive aspect is we have absolutely no idea where they acquired their language, and bizarre language it is, we have no idea what th...

Egyptian Sacred Sciences and Cosmology

Kemetic writings found in Alexandria's libraries were attributed collectively to Hermes, a Greek conception of the Egyptian deity Djehuti, patron of science, learning, and language. She was believed to have incarnated herself as a sage several times, and in the beginnings of Egyptian civilization, in the form of Hermes Trismegistus, also known as the "thrice greatest" because he had perfected the three sacred disciplines of medicine, architecture, and astronomy. Egypt regarded Djehuti as the original teacher of sacred knowledge. His task was to write the secret books of the temples and possess the magical words of power used in temple rituals. He was known as Thoth-Hermes by the Greeks living in Egypt. Imhotep was revered as a patron saint of arcane teachings in the Old Kingdom. According to Egyptian Legend, his architectural canons constructed the Saqqara and Giza monuments. The Greeks and Romans believed these complexes were temples of initiation into the highest mysteries of religion. The Legend of Thoth/Hermes Trismegistus was thus born, with all the accompanying Hermetic attributes and historical lore derived from Graeco-Roman culture.

Thoth The Author of Ancient Egyptian Wisdom

Thoth's roles in Egyptian mythology were many. He served as scribe of the gods, credited with the invention of writing and Egyptian hieroglyphs. In the underworld, Duat, he appeared as an ape, Aani, the god of equilibrium, who reported when the scales weighing the deceased's heart against the feather, representing the principle of Maat, was exactly even. The ancient Egyptians regarded Thoth as One, self-begotten, and self-produced. He was the master of both physical and moral (i.e. divine) law, making proper use of Ma'at. He is credited with making the calculations for the establishment of the heavens, stars, Earth, and everything in them. The Egyptians credited him as the author of all works of science, religion, philosophy, and magic. The Greeks further declared him the inventor of astronomy, astrology, the science of numbers, mathematics, geometry, surveying, medicine, botany, theology, civilized government, the alphabet, reading, writing, and oratory. They further claimed he was the true author of every work of every branch of knowledge, human and divine.

The Mysterious Gods of Egypt

At the beginning of time, there was only Nun, the primeval waters of chaos, then in a great flood, the Sun got interned, rose from the water, and willed himself into creation. Atum then created Ayr, a son he named shu and moisture, a daughter he named Tefnut. They were the first divine pair and soon had children of their own. The earth named gab and the sky called nut the second divine pair then had four children: Osiris, Isis, Seth, and Neftis. They were completing the group of nine primeval gods known as the Ennead.

Divine Wisdom in the Temples of Egypt

Egypt's temples are the temporary residence of the Neter and the location of its mysteries. "Mysteries" refers to the complete knowledge of the Neter's powers and manifestations, as well as how this knowledge is accessed by those connected to it. Among the reports of ancient travelers, we find references to the mysteries practiced in Egyptian temples. Although the activities were universally known, only those qualified to participate had access to knowledge and practice about them. A lengthy period of study at the Per Neter was required as well as a period of service dedicated to the temple only.

The Divine Knowledge of Egypt

Egypt was considered by ancient peoples to be the epitome of Knowledge. Their mysterious Nile country had a knowledge system much more developed than any in their native ability, with which Egyptian religion was so strongly associated; therefore, it seemed to savor Knowledge practices to the foreigner. Imagine omitting the Pyramid Knowledge papyri. For a proper understanding of the Egyptian Pyramids and Temple Buildings, it is wiser to derive our information from the original native sources since we have almost no knowledge of Egyptian Knowledge. Most of what Egyptologists have written about Egyptian Knowledge assumes that it is merely a degraded form of religion or its foundation. Independe...

Yuga Cycles for the Modern World

  • Categories: Art

Today, the word "God" carries a lot of baggage. People conjure up different meanings for it based on their backgrounds and cultures; it often evokes positive and negative emotions. Humanity living in God's awareness on a day-to-day basis is often complicated for people from the Dwapara Yuga. As previously discussed, atheism and science often limit the Kali Yuga conception of God. According to Sri Yukteswar, God is not a venerable personage who resides in an antiseptic corner of the universe. As a result of God's consciousness, which is pure and beyond form and limitations, our consciousness is an inextricable expression of his consciousness. As we become more aware of ourselves, we become part of God's pure consciousness. Humanity has discovered more profound, subtle aspects of its true identity through the yugas. The layers of wrapping that hide the gift inside get removed as we move through the yugas. Most wrappings will be removed in Satya Yuga, revealing the gift underneath as if through a thin layer of tissue. Each individual in Satya Yuga will experience "God the Spirit beyond this visible world" after removing the last layer.

Scarab Symbolism of the Ancient World

A scarabaeus symbol embodied an elevated religious idea in ancient Egypt, encompassing the Soul's future life, its resurrection from the grave, and most likely its reward or punishment in the next life, depending on its conduct. From the earliest historical knowledge about Ancient Egypt, scarabaeus models pre-existed as symbols of new life and the future eternal life of the triumphant or justified dead. There is an inscription on the lid of the coffin of Men-Kau-Ra, king of the fourth Memphite Dynasty (circa 3633-3600 B.C.) and builder of the Third Pyramid at Giza, confirms that many of the most elevated conceptions of the Per-em-hru, also known as the Book of the Dead, were accepted as trut...
