... to continue. The story has been limited by cultural preconceptions and by restricting the "writers" to experts in one narrow specialty. The story is overdue for a shake-up. The irony is that Genesis is only one version among many of a major evolutionary event in the history of the solar system; a "re-creation" event witnessed by prehistoric man and memorialised by all of the earliest civilizations. It has much to offer in a more general approach to discovering the real history of the Earth and the origin of planets. Meanwhile the astronomers' script for Earth history is showing its age. It comes straight from the early Industrial Revolution ? it is purely mechanical and clockwork-like with ...
252. The Celestial Ship of North Vol II [Books]
... prove the immortality of tradition and its symbols. The earliest books of our Bible are astrological, and are filled with priceless ancient wisdom told in myth, fable, and allegory. Events of every description and kind, whether historical or otherwise, were anciently recorded. It was a method of learning and assimilating great truths, which were true prehistoric realities. Through misinterpretation, however, the modern world has been denied many of these truths embodied in myths, but in the coming days of dissemination, these are to be freed from their numerous false renderings, many of which have been deliberately conceived during the past two thousand years. Astrology has been handed down to us in its ...

... the rug with Cartesian logic" (S . Giedion, The Eternal Present, Vol. II (N .Y ., 1963), pp. 138-139; E. Dhorme, Les Religions de Babylonie et d'Assyrie (2nd edn.: Paris, 1949), p. 282). The relationship between man and the cosmos in prehistoric times and in the first high civilizations was basically different than our own. Yet, "the entire structure of present-day knowledge requires that it reject all mystical connection between cosmic and earthly happenings .. .. nevertheless, many observations from earlier times live on without context. . . . They stem from a time when there was still ...

255. Indra's Theft of the Sun-God's Wheel [Journals] [Aeon]
... , its role in the dragon combat). If we are to get to the bottom of these peculiar traditions we must start at the beginning and ask what it was that the ancients had in mind when they spoke of the wheel of the Sun? The Wheel of the Sun in Ancient Pictographs Throughout the ancient world there can be found prehistoric pictographs which, in the opinion of leading scholars, depict the ancient sun-god. Figure one provides a typical example of these pictographs. The resemblance of the image to a wheel is striking and has not escaped the notice of scholars. (105) In a further elaboration of the imagery, the "solar wheel" may be set ...
256. Samson Revealed [Journals] [Aeon]
... not bode well for the thesis of de Santillana and von Dechend. (18) If such is the case, it is most doubtful if a large number of other cultures were aware of it either, yet this is what the thesis of Hamlet's Mill requires. In any case, given a thesis this radical in its implications- crediting prehistoric man the world over with a relatively sophisticated understanding of science in general and astronomy in particular- one would think that it was incumbent upon the authors to present a wealth of evidence in favor of such knowledge. Yet such evidence is not to be found in Hamlet's Mill (nor anywhere else, I suspect). (19) ...
257. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . It seems that around 11,000 years ago, the temperature in Ireland dropped from temperate to glacial in around 100 years and the subsequently poor forage meant the elk simply could not obtain sufficient minerals to counteract the enormous drain due to antler formation. Could there possibly be any connection with the extinction of the mammoths and other mega-fauna? Prehistoric Chinese Floods New Scientist 27.5 .00, p. 21 China's Yellow River periodically gives rise to catastrophic floods. In 1843 a cataclysmic flood was the worst in 2,400 years of recorded history, but sedimentary records indicate that there were 4 even greater ones between 6,000 and 8,000 years ago. Sunken ...
258. The Bedrock of Myth [Articles]
... extremely rare in the area at the time. It must have been Vedic, for otherwise, there would not have been enough time for the earlier migration from the northwest to be totally forgotten by the Indian branch of the Aryans. The story of the Maruts living in an Ashvattha tree, the substitute for Black Poplar, derives from a prehistoric Aryan or Proto-Indo-European' original. A Greek derivative is the story of the Daughters of the Sun, Heliades, who were changed into Black Poplars and wept tears of amber. Here, by Sun', the original crescent may be inferred. It is noteworthy that on the Harappan seal, the Maruts have been separated into mutually isolated ...

... he had produced more than three dozen "snapshots" of an evolving, sometimes stable, but often violently unstable, configuration of planets appearing gigantic in the heavens. Discharge from a plasma focus device, as recorded by a research team headed by plasma scientist Anthony Peratt. Meanwhile, Wal had been documenting evidence for electrical interactions between planets in prehistoric times, seeking to reconcile plasma science and planetary geology with the human testimony gathered by other researchers. When he saw Dave's reconstructed images, he recognized them as plasma discharge structures. He showed Dave an image of a radial discharge from a plasma focus device (photograph below) that matched Dave's own reconstructions. The dynamics of the plasma ...
