Anubis

Greek for a funeral-god known to the Egyptians as Anpu. Although most
Egyptologists describe him as jackal-headed, his title, �The Great Dog,� demonstrates
he was canine cephalic. And, like the seeing-eye dog, Anubis loyally
guided the recently deceased through the darkness of death. He was a spirit-guide,
who comforted the ba, or soul, leading it to the Otherworld. Prayed to as �The
Westerner,� Anubis was said to have �written annals from before the flood�
which destroyed his island-home in the Distant West, from whence he arrived
to reestablish his worship in Egypt. He was also known as the �Great Five,� the
sacred numeral of Atlantis, according to Plato. Hence, the funeral rites associated
with his divinity became Egyptian mortuary practices after their importation
from the sunken civilization.

Emerald ( or M rald ) Tablet of Hermes

From Fulcanelli (translated from the French by Sieveking)


1) This is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth:-
2) As below, so above; and as above so below. With this knowledge alone you may work miracles.
3) And since all things exist in and eminate from the ONE Who is the ultimate Cause, so all things are born after their kind from this ONE.
4) The Sun is the father, the Moon the mother;
5) the wind carried it in his belly. Earth is its nurse and its guardian.
6) It is the Father of all things,
6a) the eternal Will is contained in it.
7) Here, on earth, its strength, its power remain one and undivded.
7a) Earth must be separated from fire, the subtle from the dense, gently with unremitting care.
8) It arises from the earth and descends from heaven; it gathers to itself the strength of things above and things below.
9) By means of this one thing all the glory of the world shall be yours and all obscurity flee from you.
10) It is power, strong with the strength of all power, for it will penetrate all mysteries and dispel all ignorance.
11a) By it the world was created.
12) From it are born manifold wonders, the means to achieving which are here given
13) It is for this reason that I am called Hermes Trismegistus; for I possess the three essentials of the philosophy of the universe.
14) This is is the sum total of the work of the Sun.

Philosophy[edit]

Alexander Cornelius Polyhistor referred to the Druids as philosophers and called their doctrine of the immortality of the soul and reincarnation or metempsychosis "Pythagorean":
"The Pythagorean doctrine prevails among the Gauls' teaching that the souls of men are immortal, and that after a fixed number of years they will enter into another body."

Caesar remarks: "The principal point of their doctrine is that the soul does not die and that after death it passes from one body into another" (see metempsychosis). Caesar wrote:
With regard to their actual course of studies, the main object of all education is, in their opinion, to imbue their scholars with a firm belief in the indestructibility of the human soul, which, according to their belief, merely passes at death from one tenement to another; for by such doctrine alone, they say, which robs death of all its terrors, can the highest form of human courage be developed. Subsidiary to the teachings of this main principle, they hold various lectures and discussions on astronomy, on the extent and geographical distribution of the globe, on the different branches of natural philosophy, and on many problems connected with religion.
�Julius Caesar, De Bello Gallico, VI, 13

Diodorus Siculus, writing in 36 BCE, described how the druids followed "the Pythagorean doctrine", that human souls "are immortal and after a prescribed number of years they commence a new life in a new body."[34] In 1928, folklorist Donald A. Mackenzie speculated that Buddhist missionaries had been sent by the Indian king Ashoka.[35] Others have invoked common Indo-European parallels.[36] Caesar noted the druidic doctrine of the original ancestor of the tribe, whom he referred to as Dispater, or Father Hades.

from: The Alchemist's Handbook- FRATER ALBERTUS

Hermetic philosophers have taught the very same fundamentals
even as philosophers of the future will do, for that which constitutes
truth will remain truth. It cannot be changed. But the theories of men
and their opinions, which are incorrectly given by some as truth, are
subject to change. Because one calls himself a philosopher does not
necessarilv make him such. Only he is a philosopher who has a sincere
love for the wisdom that manifests universally and who strives as
sincerely to apply it in his daily life. Wisdom is acquired through
righteous living. It is understanding applied. The acquisition of a
degree of Doctor of Philosophy, as conferred upon graduates in
institutions of higher learning, does not make one a philosopher, as
much as those in possession of such a degree may believe in their
right to such a title.
To be acquainted with the history of philosophy, the lives and
teachings of those called philosophers, is only a study and knowledge
of their universal concepts and what has been derived from them.
To be a philosopher, therefore, means to understand and live according
to that understanding, knowing well that only by giving unhesitatingly
and unselfishly will our belief in mankind be justified. When this
has been realized, then only will Alchemy become something real.
Transmutation always takes place on a higher plane, and in the physi-
cal world laws cannot be adhered to or violated without producing
karmic manifestations. Beneficial karma, if it is permissible to use a
term, because karma is impartial, is brought about by harmonious
applications of natural laws. These natural laws must be adhered to if,
according to predestined results, we wish to obtain what nature has
decreed.

.... and how do you think Karma expresses itself ...... coincidently ... it is the same Language of Wall Street / The City ....

example :

In terms of key and integral world events, 1947 was a year of profoundly deep and significant proportions. United States President Harry S. Truman signed the National Security Act, which paved the way for the creation of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The first, priceless collection of what have famously become known as the Dead Sea Scrolls was found in caves at Qumran, an ancient and historic site on the West Bank. At the White Sands Proving Ground, New Mexico, a collection of fruit-flies made history when they became the first living creatures to reach the fringes of space, after being blasted into the skies above aboard a captured German World War Two-era V-2 rocket.

The age of the Flying Saucer was famously ushered in, after an American pilot � Kenneth Arnold � witnessed nine strange-looking aircraft flying close to Mount Rainier, Washington State. And, many UFO researchers believe, an alien spacecraft crashed on harsh, remote desert land outside of the small New Mexican town of Roswell. Singular, unconnected events in a world constantly in a state of change, development, and wonder, or integral parts of a greater, and very old, puzzle guided by the mysterious hands of destiny, fate and grand design?

From the Pyramids to the Pentagon | Mysterious Universe

Most people would probably say the former. But, sometimes, the majority are wrong, devastatingly so, even.

Close to 1,000 in number the Dead Sea Scrolls � as they have become popularly and famously known � represent a veritable treasure-trove of early written material from almost every book of the Old Testament, chiefly dating from around 150 BC to 70 BC. Their amazing discovery dates back to February 1947, when, along with his young cousin, a certain Muhammad edh-Dhib, then only a teenager, stumbled across a series of caves at Qumran, on the northwest side of the Dead Sea � which borders Jordan to the East, and Israel to the West. Upon exploring one particular cave, edh-Dhib was amazed to find within it a number of ancient texts, carefully and faithfully recorded on aged parchment.

Knowledge of God will fill the world (Isaiah 11:9 )

Ancient Israel[edit]
Main article: Hebrew Bible

Many of the scriptural requirements concerning the Messiah, what he will do, and what will be done during his reign are located in the Book of Isaiah, although requirements are mentioned by other prophets as well. Views on whether Hebrew Bible passages are Messianic may vary from and among scholars of ancient Israel looking at their meaning in original context and from and among rabbinical scholars.

Isaiah 1:26: "And I will restore your judges as at first and your counsellors as in the beginning; afterwards you shall be called City of Righteousness, Faithful City." Some Jews[9] interpret this to mean that the Sanhedrin will be re-established."(Isaiah 1:26)
Once he is King, leaders of other nations will look to him for guidance. (Isaiah 2:4)
The whole world will worship the One God of Israel (Isaiah 2:11-17)
He will be descended from King David (Isaiah 11:1) via Solomon (1 Chronicles 22:8-10, 2 Chronicles 7:18)
The "spirit of the Lord" will be upon him, and he will have a "fear of God" (Isaiah 11:2)
Evil and tyranny will not be able to stand before his leadership (Isaiah 11:4)
Knowledge of God will fill the world (Isaiah 11:9)
He will include and attract people from all cultures and nations (Isaiah 11:10)
All Israelites will be returned to their homeland (Isaiah 11:12)
Death will be swallowed up forever (Isaiah 25:8)
There will be no more hunger or illness, and death will cease (Isaiah 25:8)
All of the dead will rise again (Isaiah 26:19)
The Jewish people will experience eternal joy and gladness (Isaiah 51:11)
He will be a messenger of peace (Isaiah 52:7)
Nations will recognize the wrongs they did to Israel (Isaiah 52:13-53:5)
The peoples of the world will turn to the Jews for spiritual guidance (Zechariah 8:23)
The ruined cities of Israel will be restored (Ezekiel 16:55)
Weapons of war will be destroyed (Ezekiel 39:9)
The people of Israel will have direct access to the Torah through their minds and Torah study will become the study of the wisdom of the heart (Jeremiah 31:33)[10]
He will give you all the worthy desires of your heart (Psalms 37:4)
He will take the barren land and make it abundant and fruitful (Isaiah 51:3, Amos 9:13-15, Ezekiel 36:29-30, Isaiah 11:6-9)

21 - World

The final position of 21.World in the second hendecad is shown by the numerical value of DIONUSOS O ARSENOQHLUS QEOS (Dionusos Ho Arsenothelus Theos, The Man-woman God Dionysos) = 2431 (the Pythagorean Tetraktys, 1-2-3-4),






which reduces to 11+1-3+4-2 = 11, and also by the value of O DUALOS KOSMOS (Ho Dualos Kosmos, The Hybrid Cosmos) = 1375, which reduces to 11+5-7+3-1 = 11. (See Kerenyi, Gods of the Greeks 273, for Dualos.)

Rhythm and time represent the two fundamental dimensions of the universe. They are symbolized by the banner in 19.Angel, with its horizontal frequency bands intersecting vertical time intervals. The finite area of the central square represents the central core of spontaneity, the mutual indeterminacy of Being and Becoming, of State and Process, of Identity and Difference; in quantum mechanics it is time and frequency (proportional to energy), or location and velocity (proportional to momentum). The Cosmic Dancer knows instinctively the balance of choreography and improvisation, of predictability and surprise.

Coronal holes are dark, low density regions of the sun's outermost atmosphere, the corona. They contain little solar material, have lower temperatures, and therefore, appear much darker than their surroundings

"My brain is only a receiver. In the Universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength, inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists."

N.Tesla

36. In Summary: thoughts of the brain are experienced by us as arrangements and
rearrangements change in a physical universe; but in fact it is really information
and information-processing which we substantialize. We do not merely see its
thoughts as objects, but rather as the movement, or, more precisely, the placement
of objects: how they become linked to one another. But we cannot read the patterns
of arrangement; we cannot extract the information in it i.e. it as information, which
is what it is. The linking and relinking of objects by the Brain is actually a language,
but not a language like ours (since it is addressing itself and not someone or
something outside itself).

Hazrat Inayat Khan Volume Index

There is One Holy Book, the sacred manuscript of nature, the only scripture which can enlighten the reader.�

Most people consider as sacred scriptures only certain books or scrolls written by hand of man, and carefully preserved as holy, to be handed down to posterity as divine revelation. Men have fought and disputed over the authenticity of these books, have refused to accept any other book of similar character, and, clinging thus to the book and losing the sense of it have formed diverse sects. The Sufi has all ages respected all such books, and has traced in the Vedanta, Zendavesta, Kabala, Bible, Qur�an, and all other sacred scriptures, the same truth which he reads in the incorruptible manuscript of nature, the only Holy Book, the perfect and living model that teaches the inner law of life: all scriptures before nature�s manuscript are as little pools of water before the ocean.

To the eye of the seer every leaf of the tree is a page of the holy book that contains divine revelation, and he is inspired every moment of his life by constantly reading and understanding the holy script of nature.

When man writes, he inscribes characters upon rock, leaf, paper, wood, or steel. When God writes, the characters He writes are living creatures.

It is when the eye of the soul is opened and the sight is keen that the Sufi can read the divine law in the manuscript of nature; and they derived that which the teachers of humanity have taught to their followers from the same source. They expressed what little it is possible to express in words, and so they preserved the inner truth when they themselves were no longer there to reveal it.

Erzulie is three in aspect: she can be Erzulie Freda, a virgin goddess likened to the Virgin Mary; Erzulie Dantor, loa of jealousy and passion; or La Siren, a personification of the sea and goddess of motherhood.

Learning a language depends on good connection between regions of the left hemisphere of the brain

Language is a uniquely human ability. The average person's vocabulary consists of about thirty thousand words, although there are individual differences in the ability to learn a new language. It has long been believed that language acquisition depends on the integration of the information between motor and auditory representation of words in the brain, but the neural mechanisms that lie behind learning new words remained unclear.

Now, a study made by researchers from the group of Cognition and Brain Plasticity at the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL) and the University of Barcelona, with the collaboration of researchers from the King's College of London, provides information on neural pathways involved in word learning among humans. The key is in the arcuate fasciculus, a bundle of nerve fibers that connects auditory regions at the temporal lobe with the motor area located at the frontal lobe, in the left hemisphere of the brain. Individual differences in the development of connections in this bundle condition the ability to learn new words. The results of the study are published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Ares and Athena, war god and war goddess, are always at odds, for Athena cannot endure Ares' love of violence and strife, for she fights only to protect civilization or to enforce justice. Further, by acting impulsively, Ares often lets Victory slip out of his fingers, whereas Victory accompanies Athena because she plans carefully and acts prudently. (SB&G 43)
