... In Daniel 8:6 : and he came to the ram with two horns'. The last word in Hebrew is Karanaim': krnym. In Arabic it is Zialgharein or Zelgarne or Zelranain. Mullahs have for 1300 years suppressed Iranian nationalism against Islam. Many Arab and Persian scholars have referred to Zelranain as Alexander who destroyed Persian and Indian culture. According to Mr Azad, Zelranain cannot be Alexander. During the captivity of the Israelites in Babylon came the concept of the god as the saviour which they presented as Messiah - they referred to Cyrus as the Messiah - though not in the Torah. Cyrus never claimed any connection with the god. Nebuchadnezzar called himself a demigod ...
692. Discussion Questions From the Floor [Journals] [Aeon]
... the mantle of only 3% and in conflict with the constant rate of heat leakage from Earth's interior. The Earth does have a bulge, but it is not the "Fennoscandian uplift" Ellenberger refers to. A true bulge is centred in Sudan and consists of almost all continental land plus the Atlantic Ocean and the northern reaches of the Indian Ocean. The opposite hemisphere is centred near Samoa and consists mainly of the Pacific Ocean and numerous volcanic islands. The bulge averages about 7 km above the depths of the Pacific Ocean. The permanent set of this displacement in the Earth's mantle and paleobiologic record strongly suggests that Earth was for eons a satellite of a gas giant or brown ...

... Infrared detectors indicate that they are then about 2 degrees cooler than the surrounding desert of the Nullarbor Plain but they don't show at night when temperature differences between geological materials are normally greatest. Geologists are completely puzzled. Wood but no trees New Scientist 6.8 .94, p. 10 1000 years ago in New Mexico the local Anasazi Indians built massive buildings of wood which were far larger than necessary to house the population it is estimated could have been supported in the desert at that time. The species of pine and fir which were used in their construction do not grow in the Chaco Canyon today and some wood is even of species which only grow at high altitudes. ...

Winter', pp. 269/70 92. ibid: p. 103 93. ibid: p. 40 Alexander von Humboldt at Cumana, 1799 (200 miles East of Caracas, Venezuela) Humboldt observed one of the most prolific Leonid displays in history, while exploring among savage Amazon Indians. In the same fortnight at Cumana he had the presence of mind to check on the variation in the angle of magnetic dip during an earthquake, and to check the polarity of the atmospheric charge during a savage electrical storm. Meanwhile the panic-stricken natives blamed the storm, earthquake, meteor shower, unprecedented heatwave and strange red mists on ...
695. The New Science of Immanuel Velikovsky [Journals] [Kronos]
... much of what could be called marked exaggeration. They are rather straight-forward and seem generally consistent with what might well be expected to happen on the earth were a celestial body to come as close to it as Velikovsky suggests. Let us now examine some of the myths of the destructions of the three worlds from the oral tradition of the Hopi Indians of the South-Western United States. These myths have not been put into writing during a period of what may be over three millennia. (It is interesting, in this connection, that the Hopi consider themselves to be the first people to have arrived in the Americas). According to their mythology, the world has been destroyed three ...

... those produced by a captive chimpanzee when allowed to experiment. Even assumptions made about carefully crafted arrow and spear heads may be wrong. Those found in ancient North American sites are always taken as evidence of hunting but a researcher looking at the points in detail claims that more than 70% were unused. At one late site, where the Indians were farmers and no longer relied upon hunting, they continued to make very skilful points, often from exotic stone, and therefore it had probably become an art form. Size related to gravity New Scientist 22.4 .95, p. 33 We have mentioned before that mankind, and many other animals, appear to have become ...

... slave. Driven into a corner, he acquiesced, and the contract was written upon Mordecai's knee-cap, because there was no paper to be found in the camp. The bill of sale ran thus: "I , Haman, the son of Hammedatha of the family of Agag, was sent out by King Ahasuerus to make war upon an Indian city, with an army of sixty thousand soldiers, furnished with the necessary provisions. Precisely the same commission was given by the king to Mordecai, the son of Shimei of the tribe of Benjamin. But I squandered the provisions entrusted to me by the king, so that I had no rations to give to my troops. I ...

699. The Velikovsky Affair [Books] [de Grazia books]
... . ' The Battle of the Stars ends when the attacker is defeated, falling into the ocean and setting the entire earth on fire. Kugler explained these events by bringing to bear another prophecy of the same book of the Sibylline Oracles (line 206-13) where, after mentioning the same positions of the stars, warning is given to the Indians and the Ethiopians to beware of a coming great heavenly fire on earth and a new nature from the fighting stars, when the entire land of the Ethiopians will be destroyed in fire and wailing. ' The emphasis on Ethiopia is comprehensible when one considers that these texts were written in Lower Egypt. Kugler concluded that the details of the ...

... found a considerable interest in translating my political works and even some surprised involvement in my questions about mythology and catastrophes. I did not find the lost tribes of Israel but perhaps learned something of pre- "Atlantean" survivals. I also had a car wreck (I was not driving), had my wallet stolen by a large fat Indian lady with an overpowering smell that put me to sleep on the bus alongside her, and then later on my little camera as well- before I could turn around, the pickpocket had dived into the marketplace mass.) C'est la vie. With luck, by late spring I shall have a general manuscript ready on the holocene destructions ...
