“AXIS MUNDI” AT EARTH POLES -
reversed configuration at the End of the Golden Age  (Part 1)

Posted by Chris Hohn on September 30, 2012

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED AT THE FALL OF ATLANTIS?

 Where are we supposed to find extant Atlantean untouched remains?

Typical depiction of Atlantis based on Plato's account

Typical depiction of Atlantis based on Plato’s account; however it’s really obvious Atlantis was not just a city or a single area but a GLOBAL CIVILIZATION, I would argue part of an inter-planetary civilization with manipulation of inter-dimensional technologies.

 Atlantis


Atlantis as the real “City of Gold” otherwise known as “El Dorado” or “La Ciudad de los Cesares”…? Keep in mind this was the actual motivation of all the Conquistadores in America.  Sir Walter Raleigh was beheaded by King James I after a failed expedition to find it, up the Orinoco River in present day Venezuela; was this part of a POWER STRUGGLE as to whom was to possess & control the secret information regarding the knowledge of Atlantis history & remains…?

The problem with Plato, is that his teacher Socrates had to swallow the hemlock poison after expressing his dismal view of humanity.

Socrates taught that all we really know is that we know nothing, and the central point in all human existence was the conundrum of truly knowing thyself beyond the acquired illusion of one’s assumed identity . 

You know, actually believing to a tee that this guy named so & so married to so & so working for so & so, and so on & so forth, is the real “self”, when it is just an acquired social identity accepted because of Astra Amnesia of you, you really are/were in your previous incarnations, and what your true purpose for the present incarnation is. 

Quite evidently Socrates HAD A GNOSTIC VIEW of existence, whereby there are 2 Creations (one original and true, another a trojan counterfeit one, this key distinction including all the beings dwelling in them), and sought to compel one to determine to which Creation one belonged to.    It’s rather obvious that he was interested in AWAKENING the “True Humans” with connection to Original Source,  to embark on a quest to find out & discover their hidden or forgotten real identity beyond the normal “assumed” one.

AFTER SOCRATES’ DEMISE, PLATO OPTED TO SPEAK IN CODE ONLY

Did his description of Atlantis as an Island of concentric plan, secretly mean the South Pole…?

The massive continental island of  Antarctica at the South Pole; 5.4 million square miles, TWICE the size of Australia, the 5th largest continent on Earth after Asia, Africa, North America, & South America. Did you know this…?  No you didn’t; ask yourself why.

The massive continental island of Antarctica t the South Pole

As a matter of fact, we have no trouble at all coming across similarly encoded references to the Antarctica at the South Pole, nearly in everything of importance one can think of almost; be them places, monuments, buildings, religious symbolism, names, it’s practically everywhere   –once you realize that this could be the over arching motif, that is–.  Call it the age old method of Hiding-In-Plain-View all the really big secrets, right in front of your eyes, yet out of mind.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantheon,_Rome


The Pantheon in Rome

The Pantheon in Rome; to me, this is a clear veiled ref to the VORTEX OPENING AT THE EARTH’S POLES. But it contains only one Oculus opening, implying only one Pole.
We have all heard about the Abode of the Gods otherwise known as the Pantheon of the Gods.   Thus to have a most influential building in classic Rome precisely called The Pantheon, should raise your attention.

The question here is, which other important buildings did The Pantheon influence? For one thing, it was the inspiration behind none other than St Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican, but it also was the inspiration of Thomas Jefferson’s architectural quest, as seen in his home the Monticello, and the University of Virginia. 

This why the Jefferson Memorial like the Univ of Virginia, also mimics The Pantheon’s structure–.'

FOR ALL RELEVANT MORE EXTENSIVE EXTRAPOLATIONS OF THIS THEME READ (OR SIMPLY QUICKLY PERUSE THROUGH) THESE ARTICLES FROM MY OTHER OLDER BLOG, AS THEY PROVIDE A LOT OF CLUES


Univ of Virginia  -the Rotunda-

Univ of Virginia -the Rotunda-; linguistic ref to the “CHI-RHO” (XP) Sign of Constantine (RO-tunda) as the central hidden esoteric theme behind Christianity. This building is a mimic of The Pantheon

Not only in the above 3 articles but in many other articles form my other older blog which delve into the clues & cryptograms left by master film director Stanley Kubrick, one can attest to the importance of this archetype. 

When we look at the lower floor of the Univ of Virginia’s Rotunda, we so clearly perceive Kubrick’s clever way of pointing to it via the use of CINERAMA as a triple projector device mimicking the EYE, the Cornea being located where the movie screen we watch stands. 

The light comes into the brain via the opening at the Cornea, and Kubrick in this way was referencing The Pantheon above opening called the Oculus (Eye in latin) but much more specifically so he was referencing both the lower floor plan of the Univ of Virginia’s Rotunda as well as Thomas Jefferson’s home in Charlottesville-Virginia, called the Monticello  –designed by him, took him 40 years to complete– (it is forbidden to take photos or videos of the Monticello’s inside, but a tiny few can be found on the web):

Now anybody could say that this is simply a case of the perennial illuminati conspiracy  –you know, the Eye on the Triangle on top of the Pyramid–;  but if you’re here reading this blog it’s more likely you are way more intelligent than that, way past the reductivist conspiracy theory mindset where only the ones at the top oppress all others, and that’s it.   In this blog the themes are MUCH wider than that caricature, more related to the Gnostic viewpoint of a conflicting merging of 2 Creations and its being; this implies that we don’t have merely a political problem, but specially so that we have a spiritual problem.

“There is no political solution to our troubled evolution ...We are spirits in the material world,  are spirits in the material world”    ~ Sting ~

WHY ARE WE IN THE 3D MATERIAL WORLD, THEN?

The Gnostic answer is that we the spirits are here to be milked of our spiritual Psionic Energy (and this is the “Sion / Zion” symbol, to steal the Creative Energy connected to Divine Source)

So this 3D Matrix is a STAGED TRAGEDY DRAMA in order to induce the emotional / spiritual Kundalini Harvesting, constructed in such a Quantum Bio-Computing way as to GUARANTEE PERPETUALLY such harvesting, because it’s been all rigged from the get-go to enact Cyclical Sacrifices fractally repeating in all scales of time * space, from the daily personal to the yearly collective to the eons-scaled civilization wise.  In this respect then, there are 2 very distinct opposing factions, each vying for a specific set agenda:

1st FACTION:   an agenda to escape this 3D material Matrix and Re-Ascend

2nd FACTION:   an agenda to further entrap everyone in this 3D material Matrix

PROBLEM IS,  THE 1ST FACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER BY THE 2ND FACTION

This is what is known as the “Matrix Control System” now running most groups, religions, lodges, movements, and what have you; yet at the beginning of each movement, you can clearly trace back the 1st FACTION’s steps and footprints all over, then gradually co-opted, assimilated, and finally taken over by the substitute counterfeit cartel of the 2nd FACTION. And that is in a nutshell, the history of Humanity since the Fall of Atlantis; 2 separate Factions of opposing slant  –one serving the vampiric needs of the Demirge running the Counterfeit Creation, and the other trying to escape it and take root once again in the Original Creation beyond this dimension–.

One seeks to find the extant Atlantean knowledge & technologies in order to further enslave & control the dwellers of this 3D material Matrix by linking them to the Demiurge programming, the other seeks exactly the same knowledge & technology to escape all this and re-evolve back to the Original State of Being linked to the True Divine Source.  The way this works in practical terms is easy to figure out once you understand the issue:
  • "PRACTICALLY ALL RELIGION & MASONRY IS ACTUALLY “SPIRITUAL MATERIALISM".
  • "PRACTICALLY ALL IDEOLOGY & POLITICS  IS ACTUALLY “INTELLECTUAL MATERIALISM".
Thomas Jefferson represented a different path in politics; his avowed “Pursuit of Liberty” whether it be in the religious/philosophical/political/existential sense, meant to propitiate the minimal conditions to guarantee the Absence of Total Interdiction from the Matrix Control System. He strongly advocated high Education & a Free Spirit attitude, involving a deep love of music, architecture, arts, and science. Jefferson might not have been perfect, but was certainly a member of 1st FACTION with connection to True Original Source;  the perennial Insider-Outsider, he walked the halls of the few, but remained committed to cementing a structure of Liberty where all spiritual humans could within the limits of their personal circumstance be minimally able to be themselves in peaceful order.

Jefferson famously said he wanted no other place to live in & no other other society to live in than the US of America, thus strongly expressing his rejection of European pseudo “supremacy”  (i.e. Monarchy programming). As the writer of the Declaration of Independence, speaking fluently at least 6 languages (some have claimed he spoke dozens of languages), being a self taught architect and musician, a researcher on science and esoteric secret wisdom, Jefferson stands as the greatest politician in a very long time on Earth, by a really long shot indeed.

He inherited some 20 to 40 slaves, along with some steep debts, and we do not know the real bond between him and those under him  -so we must not jump to quick conclusions-; after his wife died, Jefferson in fact had a son with one of the black maids, perhaps signaling a secret bond with those who labored for him at Monticello.  For ex his wife actually married him not for position, but for true love and their common love of music, as both would play their instruments together (she died a mere 10 years into their marriage, and Jefferson never married again as promised to her, known to take long horse rides into solitude mourning her passing away).

Thomas Jefferson, the quintessential Libertarian

Thomas Jefferson, the quintessential  Libertarian, a man privy to some big mysteries.  Thus there you have the prototypical manipulation, the elemental DETOUR tactic on the part of the 2nd FACTION serving the agenda of the Counterfeit Demiurge;    to “appropriate” unto itself the opposed agenda, and proceed to pass-off as being it, for ex to takeover Thomas Jefferson’s Libertarian agenda.  

Pretty soon, it all becomes one messy affair, with all Libertarian spiritual humans under siege, toyed upon, and stolen of their inner knowledge & talents in order for the Demiurgic faction to hoard it. 

This is peculiarly evident in the issue at hand, the extant Atlantean repositories and the implicit EXODUS agenda left over for SPIRITUAL HUMANS and not for the control freaks of the 2nd Faction, which have been hoarded unto themselves by these demonic humans, obfuscating such knowledge form the rest of Humanity, via slanting all spiritual wisdom towards distracting concoctions designed to condition the Mind & Will to accept the vampirism  –what is called “Manufacturing Consent”, because a vampire as the legend goes, needs first to be invited into a house to come in–.

THUS NEARLY ALL RELIGION WAS SLANTED TOWARDS IDOLIZING “SACRIFICE”

THUS NEARLY ALL IDEOLOGY WAS SLANTED TOWARDS IDOLIZING “CENTRALIZED CONTROL”

Peter & Paul

“Peter & Paul”; actual historical figures or fractal esoteric symbols of 3D to 4D/5D transfer?

“PAUL”  means Earth “POLE” in relation to “PINEAL” Gland 
 “PETER”  means  Earth “PERIMETER” in relation to “PITUITARY” Gland

The Inner Brain with its Pineal & Pituitary ports to the 4D/5D Crystal Palace of Light
  
The Inner Brain with its Pineal & Pituitary ports to the 4D/5D Crystal Palace of Light;  the Dimensional Transfer downwards produced an INVERSION of “Inwards/Outwards”, the TRUE CREATION is WITHIN, where all the cosmological bodies and beings are; the central notion is the learn & master how to “Align” more from the Outside-In than from the Inside-Out,a Psionic & Synergic process called “Fractal Centering”

THE MAIN FEATURE OF DIMENSIONAL TRANSFER IS  ” VORTEX ALIGNMENT”

-This happens by aligning to the Center & the Poles of every Vortex-

This is the real esoteric meaning of the “Cross”, as set within a fractal Vortex (which Fractally/Synchronically  connects the different dimensions of existence of True Creation)

Map of the Vatican

Map of the Vatican  *(CLICK TO ENLARGE)*

The open Square or Piazza surrounded but the Colonnade in front of St Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican (designed by Michelangelo who was an insider privy to secret societies knowledge) is shaped like a keyhole, while the overall plan layout of the entire Basilica / Piazza / Avenue / Castle of St Angelo (pentagonal building at right) also mimics a full key; this symbolism of a key or keys is an essential aspect of Catholic Papacy, as the so called “Keys of St Peter” that the Pope possesses, are supposed to be symbolic keys given by Jesus to Peter, which confer the Popes supposedly the power to determine things on Earth & Heaven as well  –otherwise known as “Keys to the Kingdom” (of God)–.

The 2 Keys to Earth & Heaven in the emblem of the Vatican

The 2 Keys to Earth & Heaven in the emblem of the Vatican; 1st FACTION sought to open the keys of Earth unto higher dimensions, 2nd FACTION sought to close the key Portal-Gates to further entrap dwellers of Earth into the 3D Matrix via the idolatry of Rituals
This detour or deviation of a spiritual wisdom unto a question of sheer power & control structure, is emblematic of the Demiurgic takeover described. 

The original spiritual symbol of a KEY meant to imply the OPENING OF THE INNER BRAIN ALIGNED TO THE EARTH’S POLES & PERIMETER CROSS ALIGNED TO THE GALACTIC CENTER CROSS, all in Fractal Synchronicity.

But the 2nd Faction agents obfuscate & conceal this multi-dimensional spiritual knowledge, transforming it into highly materialistic fixed Laws & Dogmas to be blindly idolized and followed to a tee, some of which of course might have socially viable moral codes of conduct and so forth at the cover level, but at this bottom-line reduction of the issue it all becomes a sheer Game of “Consciousness Entrapment”. 

It matters little if this takes place in a secular philosophical democracy of Ancient Greece with the condemnation & Execution of Socrates or in the clerical theocracy of the Holy Roman Empire, it’s all the same tactic and the same result.

Demonstrably the Greek democracy after Socrates still had several benefits, just like the European theocracy after Emperor Constantine had some benefits, but all in all it expressed a DEVOLUTION by decree, a “false enlightenment” (false salvation)  by imposition of idolatry. 

Meantime in whatever time and systemic context the phenomenon occurs, the true spiritual humans and their multi-dimensional wisdom have to go underground so to speak, because like Socrates they become threatened and persecuted under the name of supposedly great things.  

Anyone here thinking naively that I am specifically singling out Catholicism should take a better read at what I am describing, because the same exact procedure or Demiurgic takeover happens in nearly all other religions of any region or race or size all over the globe, just like in any other political system  moreover, often in much worse expression–.

I don’t care which, the same applies to Protestantism, Islam, Judaism, etc, and all the gazillion denominations all the same, hardly any difference, same process

While the Pantheon embedded many of the Earth’s orb astronomical coordinates  (see link above), St Peter’s Basilica added a crucial symbolism.

THAT OF A ROTATIONAL DISPLACEMENT OF THE POLES, expressed via the 2 Squares rotated 45 degrees from one another, which form the central dome floor structure.  In other words, they secret societies were announcing Urbi Et Orbi the coming Pole Shift  (marked to occur after the “2012-2016″ beginning of the Wandering), and the agenda to prepare the New Exodus.


The Last Supper by Leonardo Da VInci
  
The Last Supper by Leonardo Da VInci

AT THE SAME TIME LEONARDO DA VINCI WAS ENCODING THE SAME POLE SHIFT IN HIS FAMOUS LAST SUPPER MURAL PAINTING, JESUS & MARY MAGDALENE ARE OSTENSIBLY INCLINED 45 DEGREES EACH SYMBOLIZING THE CHANGE IN ROTATIONAL AXIS ANGLE OF THE EARTH.

THE TRYPTIC MOTIF ABOVE THEM SIMILAR TO THE TRYPTIC MOTIF OF THE LOWER FLOOR OF THE UNIV OF VIRGINIA’S ROTUNDA; keep on kind that Da Vinci was obsessed with optics and has been suspected of having invented a form of photography which he apparently utilized to make his paintings,  therefore when he places a 6×6 MAGIC SQUARE OF THE SUN on the ceiling of the Last Supper, he is suggesting a RECONFIGURATION OF THE MATRIX.

THIS THEME IS REINFORCED BY THE ESOTERIC THEME BEHIND THE DOGMA OF THE TRANSUBSTANTIATION AS UNDERSTOOD IN CATHOLIC THEOLOGY FOR WHAT THE LAST SUPPER MEANS;  WHAT THIS SECRETLY MEANT, IS SOMETHING NOT HAPPENED BEFORE… BUT SOMETHING THAT WOULD HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE TO ALL AND EVERYTHING, AN ACTUAL “CHANGE IN PHYSICS”, IN MATTER AND TIME AS IS, APROX AT THE SAME TIME OF THE POLE SHIFT.

This is what I’ve laid out in Part 1 concerning the StarQuake of the Sun’s near invisible small Neutron Binary Star, whose changes by Quantum Entanglement simultaneously change the Sun as well;  THIS IS WHAT THE “TWINNING” INCLINATION OF “JESUS & MARY MAGDALENE” SECRETLY MEANS, THAT BOTH BINARY STARS ACT IN SIMULTANEOUS MODE TO THE “GALACTIC CROSS” EVENT.

The “Galactic Cross” is an astronomical alignment that brings with it also being bathed by a burst of Gamma Rays that come out of the central Black-Hole in the Milky way

THIS IS WHY THE TRANSUBSTANTIATION “HAPPENS IN A FLAT TABLE” AS A FLAT PLANE; ONLY THAT IT IS NOT RECTANGULAR BUT ELLIPTICAL, AS SHOWN IN ST PETER’S SQUARE

-The figures in the Last Supper painting represent stellar bodies, whose ultimate OMEGA POINT occurs at the Table

 Old CHI-RHO Sign Of Constantine (or Labarum)

THE 4 VERTICES OF THE CROSS ARE SYMBOLIZED BY THE “4 EVANGELISTS”

THE “ALPHA & OMEGA” SYMBOLIZE THE BIRTH & DEATH OF EACH NEW MATRIX ERA

THE VERTICAL LONG “P’ SYMBOLIZES THE EARTH’S POLES WHICH WILL SHIFT

THE LITTLE CIRCLES SYMBOLIZE THE PLANETS, SUN, AND STARS

THE OUTER CIRCLE SYMBOLIZES THE “OUROBOROS” CYCLICAL TIME DRAGON

In order to make this reading of the overall encoding objective & irrefutable, the obelisk at the center of St Peter’s Square was brought from Heliopolis in Egypt (the City of the Sun), thus signaling the fact that it intends to be a stellar Galactic Cross CLOCK symbol;  the changes in our star the Sun, are ultimately the main driver to the CHANGE IN PHYSICS AND TIME in this little corner of the 3D physical universe.

When Leonardo Da Vinco was very afraid to fully encode the symbolism in a literally round/spherical projection (opting for a simulated rectangular one) and he chose nevertheless to indicate the circular projection above the scene painting, Michealngelo was adamant in using the circular (albeit Elliptical) projection with no fear whatsoever.

However when Da Vinci included the 6×6 Square of the Sun in the ceiling of the scene, he was covertly spilling the beans, that the “last Supper”  (and by extension all the “literal” Bible narratives)  is actually AN ASTRONOMICAL EVENT IN OUR SOLAR SYSTEM AND OUR MILKY WAY GALAXY.  In its most basic spelling so to speak, we would speak to something akin to a SUPER NOVA event, although it is more complicated than that.

The full scene design is of a 6×12 grid rectangle, the 12 squares at the bottom symbolize the 12 Zodiacal Sings “”The Apostles”); the left & right sides perspective is used to suggest a SPEEDING OF TIME FRAMES towards the central event of the 2 Binary Stars (“Jesus & Mary Magdalen”) inclining their Axis, i.e. a change in Time/Space of Physics, reaffirmed by the “Transubstantiated Bread & Wine” at the table.  Yet it is not about things that happened as the status quo religious cartel told you, but about things that WILL happen; of the same happened at the end of the previous Era, but not 2000 years ago evidently, rather 26 or 13 thousand years ago.

*(a very loosely styled extrapolation of these monumental themes was given in my June 2011 article above)*

The Solar System cyclical travel above & below the Galactic flat plane

 The Solar System cyclical travel above & below the Galactic flat plane, in cycles of 13 & 26 thousand years, like in a SINE wave manner  (“SIN” after the Fall at each Crossing, as a result of the SINE wave move)

THE QUESTION  HERE IS:

EXACTLY WHAT KIND OF “CHANGES IN PHYSICS & TIME” ARE EXPECTED AT EACH CROSSING OF THE GALACTIC PLANE, AND THEIR ASSOCIATED EXPOSURE TO THE GAMMA RAYS COMING FORTH AT THAT CENTRAL FLAT DISK PLANE ANGLE?

IN OTHER WORDS, THERE IS OH BUT SO MUCH MORE TO THIS SECRET KNOWLEDGE HOARDED BY A TINY FEW  (WHICH THEY OBTAINED FROM EGYPT, AND THE EGYPTIANS OBTAINED FROM THE FEW LESS THAN LEARNED SURVIVORS OF ATLANTIS & FROM THE ATLANTEAN INFORMATION REPOSITORIES INSIDE THE PYRAMIDS), THAN A A MERE ASTRONOMICAL ENCODING.  IN ORDER TO PROPERLY ANSWER THIS, WE NEED TO RECONSIDER THE EMPHASIS ON THE “POLES”  (THE “p” VERTICAL AXIS AS THE AGE OLD “AXIS MUNDI”).

*(in this article of January 20112 I loosely extrapolated on these changes)*

The Abode of God a neurobiologist discovered, embeds a map of ther BRAIN

The “Abode of God” a neuro-biologist discovered, embeds a map of the HUMAN BRAIN…!

When that neuro-biologist discovered how Michelangelo’s painting secretly embedded a map of the Human Brain as the place where the Divine spark dwells in, he opened up a veritable Pandora Box;  it is beyond doubt that Michelangelo also produced his famous image of the Finger of God never quite touching the Finger of Adam, also to symbolize the FIRING OF THE BRAIN SYNAPSES…!   But there is more:

 Antarctica Map rotated, clearly resembles the HUMAN BRAIN

Antarctica Map rotated, clearly resembles the HUMAN BRAIN…!

The “Abode of God” in Michelangelo’s painting… IS AN ISLAND.    How in the world   –you may ask–  was Michelangelo aware of the existence of the Antarctica as a monumental island at the South Pole?  

This conundrum reminds you that all those legends about the Templars in America long centuries before the alleged “discovery” of America… are true; when I said Pandora Box, I meant it more so than you can fathom.  

Think of a lot of those famous figures in a time of deep ignorance, illiteracy and superstition such as the Medieval Ages, perhaps as VISITORS FROM SOME OTHER PLACES MORE ADVANCED.

THE GATEWAY TO THE ANTARCTICA IS THE PATAGONIA AT THE LOWER TIP OF SOUTH AMERICA

Therefore either Michelangelo belonged to a highly secretive tight group of learned Templars who possessed all the maps of the region as we know them today  -and perhaps even traveled to the Patagonia–, or he was a “Visitor” from more advanced lands encoding critical information concerning the “2012-2016″ beginning of the momentous Earth & Physics/Time Changes, which have to do with the South Pole, then evidently with the Antarctica located at the South Pole, take your pick.   Well then, is there any other evidence as to the existence of this group keen to the knowledge of the Antarctica at the South Pole, and the Patagonia, in those days?

LEONARDO DA VINCI  (painter, architect, scientist, sculptor, etc etc etc)  1552-1519

DONATO BRAMANTE  (architect)  1444-1514

This is just a postcard, as the list is longer; you get the idea.  Bramante of course designed the 1st plan of St Peter’s Cathedral.  

These were people involved in Alchemy, WITH A SECRET KNOWLEDGE CONCERNING THE 5 AGES; 4 have passed, we are at the 5th which they viewed as the precursor of the Ascension (the “4 Evangelists” & “Jesus Christ”). 

“Jesus” as human nature represented this Era about to die, and to resurrected in a NEW GOLDEN AGE OF NEW ALCHEMICAL NATURE; they knew these things were not literal events that transpired in the Middle east, but symbols for momentous changes to come.

“The “Christ” nature of the human “Jesus” represented the NEW HIGHER NATURE of those to be ushered into the New Golden Age, under new laws of Physics & Time, that which in the Book of Apoc/Rev is called the “New Jerusalem” as the “CITY OF INNER LIGHT”.

Where the light comes from the walls themselves, not shone from an external source like the sun–, in other words “Matter Illuminated” itself, or “Ascended Matter” tied to the Original Plan and the Original Divine Source, and not caught in the Ouroboros Dragon counterfeit cycles of Destruction & Death (the Age of Iron).

The 4 smaller Domes surrounding the central big Dome symbolize the “4 Evangelists” (the past 4 Eras) and “Jesus” transmuted in the ascended/resurrected “Christ”, respectively.

The “Jesus” human nature aspect of this present 5th Era is portrayed in the BALDAQUINO  (Quino means 5) as the altar with 4 columns canopy under the great Dome at the center of St Peter’s Basilica. 

The columns of the Baldaquino symbolize the 4 LETTERS OF THE GENOMIC ALPHABET encoded by the DNA. 

“ACTG” in biology, and “YHWH” in Kabbalah as the Tetragrammaton “formula name of God” in the Old Testament, a genetic formula .

This is why these 4 Pillars are SPIRAL or SOLOMONIC, as they indeed represent the Spiral Strands of the DNA:

Take the case of Andrea Mantegna, who is the only painter to depict the mystery of Gethesemane or Gethsemani, otherwise known as the Agony in the Garden.

 Mantegna like Da Vinci studied and experimented with perspective.  In the Gethsemane mystery painting below,  he proceeds to paint a fantastic landscape that has zero resemblance to Jerusalem  -with tall spiked peaks–,  including a CONDOR perched on a tree.

Condors are the national bird of Chile and omnipresent in the Patagonia. These birds are enormous and quite striking to watch, the Andean Condor has the largest wing span of any bird on Earth  -at am unbelievable 10.5 FEET-.

This guy was a student of Archeology, meaning a highly meticulous character; take notice of the CROSS IN THE SKY, the clouds wiped by heavy winds, the massive rock formations, the ROSE GRANITE on the walls of the “New Jerusalem” appearing in the painting as a seemingly Ethereal City (“La Ciudad de los Cesares”), pay special attention to the many wild rabbits, the water streams embedded in tall vertical rock masses, and of course observe the centerpiece of the painting  –THE 3 SPIKED PEAKS BEHIND THE ETHEREAL CITY–.

Still can’t figure out what famous highly specific geographical location/formation this painting is really about…?
Let me help you, lost traveler; his 2nd painting of the same Gethsemane motif, adds a few more details:

Mantegna  -2nd Gethesemane painting-

 Mantegna -2nd Gethsemane painting-  *(CLICK TO ENLARGE)*

In this 2nd painting of the same Gethsemane mystery, Mantegna adds a big circular building with a dome on top  -clear ref to The Pantheon as symbol of the SOUTH POLE. 

This time the water features are more prominent, you see a small arched bridge, and a vertical waterfall coming out of the tall rock formations.  The same clouds wiped by heavy winds, and an angel coming out of a cloud swirl’ notice the almost dried out broken tree; trees do  not break by themselves in this manner, unless in a geography with severe weather of high winds  –certainly not a feature of the Middle East.  

Any savvy world traveler has already identified the spot Mantegna is painting, because it is one of the preferred destinations for travelers seeking the extraordinary, superb beauty in a unique pristine location on the planet, which is of course THE EMBLEMATIC TORRES DEL PAINE IN SOUTHERN CHILEAN PATAGONIA, the area’s most revered and iconic place par none.  

You go to the lower South America, and Torres del Paine is pretty much on top of the list of places to go; however Mantegna is portraying the Torres del Paine Peaks (called the “Cuernos del Paine”) FROM THE MUCH HARDER TO REACH BEHIND, WHERE EXACTLY THERE IS A POOL OF WATER AMID TOWERING ROCK FORMATIONS, ANCHORED BY A VERTICAL WATERFALL.

It is one of the most incredible places on the planet, if not it; below a submit first some pictures of the Cuernos del Paine from behind (Mantegna’s view) and then after the famous awesome absolutely spectacular views from the front:

Is this be the “Jesus” rock where in Mantegna’s 1st painting is seen praying?  Compare to below:

Most medieval & renaissance churches were CROSS shaped  (including St Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican, of course);  their theological idea was a TRANSFIGURATION OR TRANSUBSTANTIATION FROM MATTER (rock) TO LIGHT, THIS IMPLIED IN THE FLOOR PLAN “ASCENDING” TO THE SKY WHERE THE MASS OF THE BUILDING WAS MORPHED INTO HIGH WINDOWS OF LIGHT.

But in another hidden sense, they were telling you that at the South Pole marked by the near SOUTHERN CROSS or CRUX in the sky  -made of light-, was the Gate to the Hyperborea of the former Golden Age of Saturn, the Paradise of a former Nature

In so many articles in my other older blog I showed how the code in the name “SHAKESPEARE” as meaning to “SHAKE the SPEAR” referred to the shaped like a spear tip Spitsbergen Island in the Barents Sea above Norway at the Arctic Circle; what matters is that Spitsbergen was chosen as the key to the Shakespeare Code, because the spear tip POINTS SOUTH  (i.e. look in the South Pole, not here North):

Another newer Feb 2012 article in this very blog here, further expanded on the same highly secret Templar motif:
I make the claim (or suggest it) THAT “THINGS”   –IN THE SENSE OF EXTANT ATLANTEAN INFORMATION KEYS & MAPS CONCERNING THE ASTRONOMICAL DESTRUCTIVE CYCLES AND THE SCIENCE OF THE “AXIS MUNDI”.

AXIS MUND  WHICH WAS ORIGINALLY CONTAINED IN THE PYRAMIDS OF EGYPT,  WERE STOLEN AND HIDDEN MY MANY PARTIES,  THE TEMPLARS MAIN MISSION WAS TO “LOCATE & REPOSSESS” & HIDE” WHATEVER THEY COULD GET THEIR HANDS ON CONCERNING THESE, WHICH THEY DID TO SOME EXTENT; 

I CLAIM THAT THERE WAS AN EXODUS DURING THE REIGN OF PHARAOH AKHENATEN FROM EGYPT TO THE BASQUE REGION (in Spain/France at the Bay of Biscay) AND THEN FURTHER UP TO SCOTLAND, FROM WHERE SOME KEY PIECES OF THIS ATLANTEAN SECRET KNOWLEDGE WERE ABSCONDED IN SPITSBERGEN ISLAND, A PERFECT PLACE TO STASH IT ALL AWAY.  

Then it follows logic that a “Shakespeare Code” was enacted in order to preserve the ref to the location in case of catastrophes be them wars or what have you;  we must understand here that the Pharaonic Egyptians were most definitely NOT the ones who built the pyramids, as these were Atlanteans a good 8 thousands years before or even more  (aprox 8 to 12 thousand years before 2000 BC, at the very least I mean).

Therefore the faction during the reign of Akhenaten, was merely a recent attempt at hoarding and stashing away some of this left over crucial information regarding the END OG OUR AGE and the means to find the “way back” to the previous Hyperborea higher-dimensional geography, which is linked to us at the South Pole, all seems to indicate.

A map projection centered at the Pole  (in this ex the North Pole); notice how the above pattern of the Chilean Cultrun native drum, makes all the sense in the world if it refers to the SOUTH POLE centered geography (i.e. the  Antarctica).

The Chilean patagonian tribe of the ONAS -now extinct-  were the closest to the South Pole inhabitants, as it is likely the Cultrun (or Kultrun) drum came from them, I here strongly suggest; in my view most of the “NATIVES” in all parts of the present 3D Earth, were nothing but the slave or lower classes of Atlantis who were left behind and trapped between worlds after its fall, so to speak, devolving very rapidly after that due to DNA fragmentation

I CONTEND ALL THE “DOMES” IN RENAISSANCE OR NEO-CLASSIC STYLED ARCHITECTURE  (for ex St Peter's Basilica at the Vatican,  St Paul’s Cathedral in London,  the Washington Capitol Building, etc etc etc) WERE ACTUALLY DEPICTIONS OF THE POLE CENTERED MAPS,  EXPRESSING THE POLE CENTERED SPHERE OF THE EARTH.

This in my opinion was because they transmit the secret knowledge of a REVERSE astronomical / geographical configuration related to the Golden Age of Saturn and the Axis Mundi  Staff Alignment of the Solar System, this configuration existing in an “Inner Earth” higher Dimensional cosmos,  thus they all express  the notion of a “way back” route in 3D, to a point in the VORTEX where the 2 3D & 4d/5D cosmos link or connect via PORTAL vortex gates.

End of the Golden Age of Saturn

Cataclysmic End of the Golden Age of Saturn;  over-charging at the Poles, consequent shut-off of the Pole Vortex,  and final ENTRAPMENT WITHIN A “ONLY 3D” MATERIAL PHYSICAL CAGE.

This manifested as  Reversal of the astronomical configuration, whereby all Poles were not aligned one to another, the End of the Axis Mundi, and its effect on Ego Consciousness of “Separateness” (otherwise known as The Fall). It’s quite possible this relates to the series of DEMIURGIC (counterfeit Gods) TAKEOVERS of the lower dimensional universes; in my view Atlantis was in itself just one of many parallel “realities” as “Spin-Offs” of former ones, a process that continues fractally & cyclically, and this is the underlying secret extant Atlantean knowledge.

Finally, for those still wondering what those little curved bridges represented in the 2 paintings of the Agony in the Garden by Mantegna (aprox circa 1450), here I offer this remarkable clue seen in the videos below.

This is the famous PERIODICAL COLLAPSE OF THE PERITO MORENO GLACIER IN THE PATAGONIA, a tip of the glacier that connects to different lakes at different altitudes, generating this “BRIDGE” of ice that collapses cyclically. 

More & more the more one gets into the nitty-gritty of the anomaly, one realizes that Mantegna either had been in those Patagonia landmarks as part of secret Templar posts, or had seen visual illustrations of them:

Exoteric refers to knowledge that is outside of and independent from anyone's experience and can be ascertained by anyone; cf. common sense. It is distinguished from internal esoteric knowledge. Exoteric relates to "external reality" as opposed to one's own thoughts or feelings. It is knowledge that is public as opposed to secret or cabalistic. It is not required that exoteric knowledge come easily or automatically, but it should be referenceable or reproducible.

GEOMETRIC CONSIDERATIONS of the PENTAGRAM

Encoded into the very structure of the Pentagram is the golden section, a particular proportion in geometry that has been praised by artists for centuries as embodying the very divine beauty in form. Mathematically, the golden section  refers to the division of a line segment into extreme and mean proportions; that is, a line is divided such that the smaller part is to the greater, as the greater is to the whole. The golden section has been used extensively in post-Hellenic architecture, as well as playing a large role in the construction of early Cathedrals. The work of Michelangelo is just one example of the use artists have made of this special proportion.
 
Paul Foster Case says of the golden section appearing in the pentagram:
 
The occult interpretation of this mathematical proportion is sometimes expressed in the maxim: ‘Nature is to man as man is to God.’ The proportion itself is often called the Golden Section of Pythagoras, and is associated with the Hermetic axiom: ‘That which is above is as that which is below, and that which is below is as that which is above.’
 
If a square is added to the longer side of a golden rectangle, a larger golden rectangle is then formed. Continuing the pattern, the golden section reveals itself to be part of the Fibonacci Series, where each number in the series is obtained by adding the previous two numbers: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13… The Fibonacci series is a naturally occurring pattern that is found in nature, such as the growth patterns of trees, the nautilus shell, pine cones, crystals, leaves and the human body. Clearly the stamp of the Great Architect is found in the world, with the wonders of creation!
 
The golden section of the Pentagram is approximated with the numbers 5 and 8 of the Fibonacci series. Interestingly, the dimensions of the Rosicrucian Vault of C.R. as described in the core document the Fama Fraternitatis are said to be 8 feet tall and 5 feet wide. This mysterious vault was said to be a “compendium of the universe,” each wall illustrated with Kabalistic and Hermetic symbols.

Aiq Bekar 
(The Kabalah of Nine Chambers)
 
The system of temurah known as Aiq Bekar divides the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet into a grid of 9 chambers with their numerical values:
 

    Sh    L     G              R     K     B            Q     Y     A

   300   30     3            200    20     2          100    10     1

 

    M     S     V              K     N     H            Th     M     D

   600   60     6            500    50     5           400    40     4

 

    Tz    Tz    T              P     P    Ch            N     O     Z

   900    90    9            800    80     8          700    70     7
This grid is then used as the template from which to permute words, which are either expanded or minimized.
 
In Hebrew, the word for man is ADM, adam. This is not an individual man, rather it represents humanity as a whole, mankind. The Hebrew letters enumerate to the number 45.
 
Using the Aiq Bekar grid, the word ADM may be permuted into the word AMTh (emeth), which means Truth and has the value of 441.
 
Using this system, the Kabalah indicates that Man embodies Truth, and that Truth is in fact in Man.
 The  pentagram symbol also appears in Egyptian hieroglyphics, associated with the Goddess Sopdet, who was represented in the night sky by the brightest star, Sirius, the so called Dog Star in the constellation of Canis Major

(Manly P Hall - The Occult Anatomy of Man)

The Human Body in Symbolism
Manly P Hall

THE oldest, the most profound, the most universal of all symbols is the human body. The Greeks, Persians, Egyptians, and Hindus considered a philosophical analysis of man's tri-une nature to be an indispensable part of ethical and religious training. The Mysteries of every nation taught that the laws, elements, and powers of the universe were epitomized in the human constitution; that everything which existed outside of man had its analogue within man. The universe, being immeasurable in its immensity and inconceivable in its profundity, was beyond mortal estimation. Even the gods themselves could comprehend but a part of the inaccessible glory which was their source. When temporarily permeated with divine enthusiasm, man may transcend for a brief moment the limitations of his own personality and behold in part that celestial effulgence in which all creation is bathed. But even in his periods of greatest illumination man is incapable of imprinting upon the substance of his rational soul a perfect image of the multiform expression of celestial activity.

Recognizing the futility of attempting to cope intellectually with that which transcends the comprehension of the rational faculties, the early philosophers turned their attention from the inconceivable Divinity to man himself, with in the narrow confines of whose nature they found manifested all the mysteries of the external spheres. As the natural outgrowth of this practice there was fabricated a secret theological system in which God was considered as the Grand Man and, conversely, man as the little god. Continuing this analogy, the universe was regarded as a man and, conversely, man as a miniature universe.

The greater universe was termed the Macrocosm--the Great World or Body--and the Divine Life or spiritual entity controlling its functions was called the Macroprosophus. Man's body, or the individual human universe, was termed the Microcosm, and the Divine Life or spiritual entity controlling its functions was called the Microprosophus. The pagan Mysteries were primarily concerned with instructing neophytes in the true relationship existing between the Macrocosm and the Microcosm--in other words, between God and man. Accordingly, the key to these analogies between the organs and functions of the Microcosmic man and those of the Macrocosmic Man constituted the most prized possession of the early initiates.

In Isis Unveiled, H. P. Blavatsky summarizes the pagan concept of man as follows: "Man is a little world--a microcosm inside the great universe. Like a fetus, he is suspended, by all his three spirits, in the matrix of the macrocosmos; and while his terrestrial body is in constant sympathy with its parent earth, his astral soul lives in unison with the sidereal anima mundi. He is in it, as it is in him, for the world-pervading element fills all space, and is space itself, only shoreless and infinite. As to his third spirit, the divine, what is it but an infinitesimal ray, one of the countless radiations proceeding directly from the Highest Cause--the Spiritual Light of the World? This is the trinity of organic and inorganic nature--the spiritual and the physical, which are three in one, and of which Proclus says that 'The first monad is the Eternal God; the second, eternity; the third, the paradigm, or pattern of the universe;' the three constituting the Intelligible Triad."
Long before the introduction of idolatry into religion, the early priests caused the statue of a man to be placed in the sanctuary of the temple. This human figure symbolized the Divine Power in all its intricate manifestations.

Thus the priests of antiquity accepted man as their textbook, and through the study of him learned to understand the greater and more abstruse mysteries of the celestial scheme of which they were a part. It is not improbable that this mysterious figure standing over the primitive altars was made in the nature of a manikin and, like certain emblematic hands in the Mystery schools, was covered with either carved or painted hieroglyphs. The statue may have opened, thus showing the relative positions of the organs, bones, muscles, nerves, and other parts. After ages of research, the manikin became a mass of intricate hieroglyphs and symbolic figures. Every part had its secret meaning. The measurements formed a basic standard by means of which it was possible to measure all parts of cosmos. It was a glorious composite emblem of all the knowledge possessed by the sages and hierophants.

Then came the age of idolatry. The Mysteries decayed from within. The secrets were lost and none knew the identity of the mysterious man who stood over the altar. It was remembered only that the figure was a sacred and glorious symbol of the Universal Power, and it: finally came to be looked upon as a god--the One in whose image man was made. Having lost the knowledge of the purpose for which the manikin was originally constructed, the priests worshiped this effigy until at last their lack of spiritual understanding brought the temple down in ruins about their heads and the statue crumbled with the civilization that had forgotten its meaning.

Proceeding from this assumption of the first theologians that man is actually fashioned in the image of God, the initiated minds of past ages erected the stupendous structure of theology upon the foundation of the human body. The religious world of today is almost totally ignorant of the fact that the science of biology is the fountainhead of its doctrines and tenets. Many of the codes and laws believed by modern divines to have been direct revelations from Divinity are in reality the fruitage of ages of patient delving into the intricacies of the human constitution and the infinite wonders revealed by such a study.
In nearly all the sacred books of the world can be traced an anatomical analogy. This is most evident in their creation myths.

Anyone familiar with embryology and obstetrics will have no difficulty in recognizing the basis of the allegory concerning Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden, the nine degrees of the Eleusinian Mysteries, and the Brahmanic legend of Vishnu's incarnations. The story of the Universal Egg, the Scandinavian myth of Ginnungagap (the dark cleft in space in which the seed of the world is sown), and the use of the fish as the emblem of the paternal generative power--all show the true origin of theological speculation. The philosophers of antiquity realized that man himself was the key to the riddle of life, for he was the living image of the Divine Plan, and in future ages humanity also will come to realize more fully the solemn import of those ancient words: "The proper study of mankind is man."

Both God and man have a twofold constitution, of which the superior part is invisible and the inferior visible. In both there is also an intermediary sphere, marking the point where these visible and invisible natures meet. As the spiritual nature of God controls His objective universal form-which is actually a crystallized idea--so the spiritual nature of man is the invisible cause and controlling power of his visible material personality. Thus it is evident that the spirit of man bears the same relationship to his material body that God bears to the objective universe.

The Mysteries taught that spirit, or life, was anterior to form and that what is anterior includes all that is posterior to itself. Spirit being anterior to form, form is therefore included within the realm of spirit. It is also a popular statement or belief that man's spirit is within his body. According to the conclusions of philosophy and theology, however, this belief is erroneous, for spirit first circumscribes an area and then manifests within it. Philosophically speaking, form, being a part of spirit, is within spirit; but: spirit is more than the sum of form, As the material nature of man is therefore within the sum of spirit, so the Universal Nature, including the entire sidereal system, is within the all-pervading essence of God--the Universal Spirit.

According to another concept of the ancient wisdom, all bodies--whether spiritual or material--have three centers, called by the Greeks the upper center, the middle center, and the lower center. An apparent ambiguity will here be noted. To diagram or symbolize adequately abstract mental verities is impossible, for the diagrammatic representation of one aspect of metaphysical relationships may be an actual contradiction of some other aspect.is above is generally considered superior in dignity and power, in reality that which is in the center is superior and anterior to both that which is said to be above and that which is said to be below.

Therefore, it must be said that the first--which is considered as being above--is actually in the center, while both of the others (which are said to be either above or below) are actually beneath. This point can be further simplified if the reader will consider above as indicating degree of proximity to source and below as indicating degree of distance from source, source being posited in the actual center and relative distance being the various points along the radii from the center toward the circumference. In matters pertaining to philosophy and theology, up may be considered as toward the center and down as toward the circumference. Center is spirit; circumference is matter. Therefore, up is toward spirit along an ascending scale of spirituality; down is toward matter along an ascending scale of materiality. The latter concept is partly expressed by the apex of a cone which, when viewed from above, is seen as a point in the exact center of the circumference formed by the base of the cone.

 


These three universal centers--the one above, the one below, and the link uniting them-represent three suns or three aspects of one sun--centers of effulgence. These also have their analogues in the three grand centers of the human body, which, like the physical universe, is a Demiurgic fabrication. "The first of these [suns]," says Thomas Taylor, "is analogous to light when viewed subsisting in its fountain the sun; the second to the light immediately proceeding from the sun; and the third to the splendor communicated to other natures by this light."
Since the superior (or spiritual) center is in the midst of the other two, its analogue in the physical body is the heart--the most spiritual and mysterious organ in the human body. The second center (or the link between the superior and inferior worlds) is elevated to the position of greatest physical dignity--the brain. The third (or lower) center is relegated to the position of least physical dignity but greatest physical importance--the generative system. Thus the heart is symbolically the source of life; the brain the link by which, through rational intelligence, life and form are united; and the generative system--or infernal creator--the source of that power by which physical organisms are produced. The ideals and aspirations of the individual depend largely upon which of these three centers of power predominates in scope and activity of expression. In the materialist the lower center is the strongest, in the intellectualist the higher center; but in the initiate the middle center--by bathing the two extremes in a flood of spiritual effulgence--controls wholesomely both the mind and the body.
As light bears witness of life-which is its source-so the mind bears witness of the spirit, and activity in a still lower plane bears witness of intelligence. Thus the mind bears witness of the heart, while the generative system, in turn, bears witness of the mind. Accordingly, the spiritual nature is most commonly symbolized by a heart; the intellectual power by an opened eye, symbolizing the pineal gland or Cyclopean eye, which is the two-faced Janus of the pagan Mysteries; and the generative system by a flower, a staff, a cup, or a hand.
While all the Mysteries recognized the heart as the center of spiritual consciousness, they often purposely ignored this concept and used the heart in its exoteric sense as the symbol of the emotional nature, In this arrangement the generative center represented the physical body, the heart the emotional body, and the brain the mental body. The brain represented the superior sphere, but after the initiates had passed through the lower degrees they were instructed that the brain was the proxy of the spiritual flame dwelling in the innermost recesses of the heart. The student of esotericism discovers ere long that the ancients often resorted to various blinds to conceal the true interpretations of their Mysteries. The substitution of the brain for the heart was one of these blinds.




The three degrees of the ancient Mysteries were, with few exceptions, given in chambers which represented the three great centers of the human and Universal bodies. If possible, the temple itself was constructed in the form of the human body. The candidate entered between the feet and received the highest degree in the point corresponding to the brain. Thus the first degree was the material mystery and its symbol was the generative system; it raised the candidate through the various degrees of concrete thought.

The second degree was given in the chamber corresponding to the heart, but represented the middle power which was the mental link. Here the candidate was initiated into the mysteries of abstract thought and lifted as high as the mind was capable of penetrating. He then passed into the third chamber, which, analogous to the brain, occupied the highest position in the temple but, analogous to the heart, was of the greatest dignity. In the brain chamber the heart mystery was given. Here the initiate for the first time truly comprehended the meaning of those immortal words: "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." As there are seven hearts in the brain so there are seven brains in the heart, but this is a matter of super-physics of which little can be said at the present time.
 
Proclus writes on this subject in the first book of On the Theology of Plato: "Indeed, Socrates in the (First) Alcibiades rightly observes, that the soul entering into herself will behold all other things, and deity itself. For verging to her own union, and to the center of all life, laying aside multitude, and the variety of the all manifold powers which she contains, she ascends to the highest watch-tower offerings. And as in the most holy of the mysteries, they say, that the mystics at first meet with the multi-form, and many-shaped genera, which are hurled forth before the gods, but on entering the temple, unmoved, and guarded by the mystic rites, they genuinely receive in their bosom [heart] divine illumination, and divested of their garments, as they would say, participate of a divine nature; the same mode, as it appears to me, takes place in the speculation of wholes.

For the soul when looking at things posterior to herself, beholds the shadows and images of beings, but when she converts herself to herself she evolves her own essence, and the reasons which she contains. And at first indeed, she only as it were beholds herself; but, when she penetrates more profoundly into the knowledge of herself, she finds in herself both intellect, and the orders of beings. When however, she proceeds into her interior recesses, and into the adytum as it were of the soul, she perceives with her eye closed [without the aid of the lower mind], the genus of the gods, and the unities of beings. For all things are in us psychically, and through this we are naturally capable of knowing all things, by exciting the powers and the images of wholes which we contain."
The initiates of old warned their disciples that an image is not a reality but merely the objectification of a subjective idea. The image, of the gods were nor designed to be objects of worship but were to be regarded merely as emblems or reminders of invisible powers and principles. Similarly, the body of man must not be considered as the individual but only as the house of the individual, in the same manner that the temple was the House of God. In a state of grossness and perversion man's body is the tomb or prison of a divine principle; in a state of unfoldment and regeneration it is the House or Sanctuary of the Deity by whose creative powers it was fashioned.

 "Personality is suspended upon a thread from the nature of Being," declares the secret work. Man is essentially a permanent and immortal principle; only his bodies pass through the cycle of birth and death. The immortal is the reality; the mortal is the unreality.

During each period of earth life, reality thus dwells in unreality, to be liberated from it temporarily by death and permanently by illumination.

 While generally regarded as polytheists, the pagans gained this reputation not because they worshiped more than one God but rather because they personified the attributes of this God, thereby creating a pantheon of posterior deities each manifesting a part of what the One God manifested as a whole. The various pantheons of ancient religions therefore actually represent the cataloged and personified attributes of Deity. In this respect they correspond to the hierarchies of the Hebrew Qabbalists. All the gods and goddesses of antiquity consequently have their analogies in the human body, as have also the elements, planets, and constellations which were assigned as proper vehicles for these celestials.

Four body centers are assigned to the elements, the seven vital organs to the planets, the twelve principal parts and members to the zodiac, the invisible parts of man's divine nature to various super-mundane deities, while the hidden God was declared to manifest through the marrow in the bones.
It is difficult for many to realize that they are actual universes; that their physical bodies are a visible nature through the structure of which countless waves of evolving life are unfolding their latent potentialities.

Yet through man's physical body not only are a mineral, a plant, and an animal kingdom evolving, but also unknown classifications and divisions of invisible spiritual life. just as cells are infinitesimal units in the structure of man, so man is an infinitesimal unit in the structure of the universe. A theology based upon the knowledge and appreciation of these relationships is as profoundly just as it is profoundly true.
As man's physical body has five distinct and important extremities--two legs, two arms, and a head, of which the last governs the first four--the number 5 has been accepted as the symbol of man. By its four corners the pyramid symbolizes the arms and legs, and by its apex the head, thus indicating that one rational power controls four irrational corners. The hands and feet are used to represent the four elements, of which the two feet are earth and water, and the two hands fire and air. The brain then symbolizes the sacred fifth element æther which controls and unites the other four. If the feet are placed together and the arms outspread, man then symbolizes the cross with the rational intellect as the head or upper limb.


 


The fingers and toes also have special significance. The toes represent the Ten Commandments of the physical law and the fingers the Ten Commandments of the spiritual law. The four fingers of each hand represent the four elements and the three phalanges of each finger represent the divisions of the element, so that in each hand there are twelve parts to the fingers, which are analogous to the signs of the zodiac, whereas the two phalanges and base of each thumb signify the threefold Deity. The first phalange corresponds to the creative aspect, the second to the preservative aspect, and the base to the generative and destructive aspect. When the hands are brought together, the result is the twenty-four Elders and the six Days of Creation.
In symbolism the body is divided vertically into halves, the right half being considered as light and the left half as darkness. By those unacquainted with the true meanings of light and darkness the light half was denominated spiritual and the left half material. Light is the symbol of objectivity; darkness of subjectivity. Light is a manifestation of life and is therefore posterior to life. That which is anterior to light is darkness, in which light exists temporarily but darkness permanently. As life precedes light, its only symbol is darkness, and darkness is considered as the veil which must eternally conceal the true nature of abstract and undifferentiated Being.
 
In ancient times men fought with their right arms and defended the vital centers with their left arms, on which was carried the protecting shield. The right half of the body was regarded therefore as offensive and the left half defensive. For this reason also the right side of the body was considered masculine and the left side feminine. Several authorities are of the opinion that the present prevalent right-handedness of the race is the outgrowth of the custom of holding the left hand in restraint for defensive purposes.

Furthermore, as the source of Being is in the primal darkness which preceded light, so the spiritual nature of man is in the dark part of his being, for the heart is on the left side.

Among the curious misconceptions arising from the false practice of associating darkness with evil is one by which several early nations used the right hand for all constructive labors and the left hand for only those purposes termed unclean and unfit for the sight of the gods. For the same reason black magic was often referred to as the left-hand path, and heaven was said to be upon the right and hell upon the left. Some philosophers further declared that there were two methods of writing: one from left to right, which was considered the esoteric method; the other from right to left, which was considered esoteric.

The exoteric writing was that which was done out or away from the heart, while the esoteric writing was that which--like the ancient Hebrew--was written toward the heart.

The secret doctrine declares that every part and member of the body is epitomized in the brain and, in turn, that all that is in the brain is epitomized in the heart. In symbolism the human head is frequently used to represent intelligence and self-knowledge. As the human body in its entirety is the most perfect known product of the earth's evolution, it was employed to represent Divinity--the highest appreciable state or condition. Artists, attempting to portray Divinity, often show only a hand emerging from an impenetrable cloud. The cloud signifies the Unknowable Divinity concealed from man by human limitation. The hand signifies the Divine activity, the only part of God which is cognizable to the lower senses.

The face consists of a natural trinity: the eyes representing the spiritual power which comprehends; the nostrils representing the preservative and vivifying power; and the mouth and ears representing the material Demiurgic power of the lower world. The first sphere is eternally existent and is creative; the second sphere pertains to the mystery of the creative breach; and the third sphere to the creative word.

By the Word of God the material universe was fabricated, and the seven creative powers, or vowel sounds--which had been brought into existence by the speaking of the Word--became the seven Elohim or Deities by whose power and ministration the lower world was organized. Occasionally the Deity is symbolized by an eye, an ear, a nose, or a mouth. By the first, Divine awareness is signified; by the second, Divine interest; by the third, Divine vitality; and by the fourth, Divine command.

The ancients did not believe that spirituality made men either righteous or rational, but rather that righteousness and rationality made men spiritual. The Mysteries taught that spiritual illumination was attained only by bringing the lower nature up to a certain standard of efficiency and purity. The Mysteries were therefore established for the purpose of unfolding the nature of man according to certain fixed rules which, when faithfully followed, elevated the human consciousness to a point where it was capable of cognizing its own constitution and the true purpose of existence.

This knowledge of how man's manifold constitution could be most quickly and most completely regenerated to the point of spiritual illumination constituted the secret, or esoteric, doctrine of antiquity. Certain apparently physical organs and centers are in reality the veils or sheaths of spiritual centers. What these were and how they could be unfolded was never revealed to the unregenerate, for the philosophers realized that once he understands the complete working of any system, a man may accomplish a prescribed end without being qualified to manipulate and control the effects which he has produced. For this reason long periods of probation were imposed, so that the knowledge of how to become as the gods might remain the sole possession of the worthy.
Lest that knowledge be lost, however, it was concealed in allegories and myths which were meaningless to the profane but self-evident to those acquainted with that theory of personal redemption which was the foundation of philosophical theology. Christianity itself may be cited as an example.

The entire New Testament is in fact an ingeniously concealed exposition of the secret processes of human regeneration. The characters so long considered as historical men and women are really the personification of certain processes which take place in the human body when man begins the task of consciously liberating himself from the bondage of ignorance and death.

The garments and ornamentation's supposedly worn by the gods are also keys, for in the Mysteries clothing was considered as synonymous with form. The degree of spirituality or materiality of the organisms was signified by the quality, beauty, and value of the garments worn. Man's physical body was looked upon as the robe of his spiritual nature; consequently, the more developed were his super-substantial powers the more glorious his apparel.

Of course, clothing was originally worn for ornamentation rather than protection, and such practice still prevails among many primitive peoples. The Mysteries caught that man's only lasting adornments were his virtues and worthy characteristics; that he was clothed in his own accomplishments and adorned by his attainments. Thus the white robe was symbolic of purity, the red robe of sacrifice and love, and the blue robe of altruism and integrity. Since the body was said to be the robe of the spirit, mental or moral deformities were depicted as deformities of the body.
Considering man's body as the measuring rule of the universe, the philosophers declared that all things resemble in constitution--if not in form--the human body. The Greeks, for example, declared Delphi to be the navel of the earth, for the physical planet was looked upon as a gigantic human being twisted into the form of a ball. In contradistinction to the belief of Christendom that the earth is an inanimate thing, the pagans considered not only the earth but also all the sidereal bodies as individual creatures possessing individual intelligences. They even went so far as to view the various kingdoms of Nature as individual entities.

The animal kingdom, for example, was looked upon as one being a composite of all the creatures composing that kingdom. This prototypical beast was a mosaic embodiment of all animal propensities and within its nature the entire animal world existed as the human species exists within the constitution of the prototypic Adam.
In the same manner, races, nations, tribes, religions, states, communities, and cities were viewed as composite entities, each made up of varying numbers of individual units. Every community has an individuality which is the sum of the individual attitudes of its inhabitants. Every religion is an individual whose body is made up of a hierarchy and vast host of individual worshipers. The organization of any religion represents its physical body, and its individual members the cell life making up this organism. Accordingly, religions, races, and communities--like individuals--pass through Shakespeare's Seven Ages, for the life of man is a standard by which the perpetuity of all things is estimated.
According to the secret doctrine, man, through the gradual refinement of his vehicles and the ever-increasing sensitiveness resulting from that refinement, is gradually overcoming the limitations of matter and is disentangling himself from his mortal coil. When humanity has completed its physical evolution, the empty shell of materiality left behind will be used by other life waves as steppingstones to their own liberation. The trend of man's evolutionary growth is ever toward his own essential Selfhood.  

At the point of deepest materialism, therefore, man is at the greatest distance from Himself.

According to the Mystery teachings, not all the spiritual nature of man incarnates in matter. The spirit of man is diagrammatically shown as an equilateral triangle with one point downward. This lower point, which is one-third of the spiritual nature but in comparison to the dignity of the other two is much less than a third, descends into the illusion of material existence for a brief space of time. That which never clothes itself in the sheath of matter is the Hermetic Anthropos the Overman  analogous to the Cyclops or guardian dæmon of the Greeks, the angel of Jakob Böhme, and the Oversoul of Emerson, "that Unity, that Oversoul, within which every man's particular being is contained and made one with all other."
 At birth only a third part of the Divine Nature of man temporarily dissociates itself from its own immortality and takes upon itself the dream of physical birth and existence, animating with its own celestial enthusiasm a vehicle composed of material elements, part of and bound to the material sphere. At death this incarnated part awakens from the dream of physical existence and reunites itself once more with its eternal condition.

 This periodical descent of spirit into matter is termed the wheel of life and death, and the principles involved are treated at length by the philosophers under the subject of metempsychosis. By initiation into the Mysteries and a certain process known as operative theology, this law of birth and death is transcended, and during the course of physical existence that part of the spirit which is asleep in form is awakened without the intervention of death the inevitable Initiator and is consciously reunited with the Anthropos, or the overshadowing substance of itself. This is at once the primary purpose and the consummate achievement of the Mysteries: that man shall become aware of and consciously be reunited with the divine source of himself without tasting of physical dissolution.
