I AM THAT I AM

(By Sir Godfrey Higgins) –  I conceive that ‘Bramham or Iseur has been a grand place for the Druids I am that I amand the Culdees. But their last northerly retreat was in the island of Iona, the famous sacred isle.

‘This island Dr. Jamieson says, has been variously denominated; that its ancient name is said to have been I, Hi, or Aoi, (as written in the annals of Ulster,) which were Latinized into Hyona 0r Iona; that its common name is now I-colum-kill, (the island of Colum of the Cells); that it is included in one of the parishes of the island of Mull.

Finding Self Gnosis

By Michael Jaco – I’ve come to look at all the different religions as holders of sacred truths that can Gnosis 2help people attain profound personal spiritual knowledge or gnosis.

The rub is that they often gloss over these truths and bury the real intent of their spiritual teachers so that you have to have an intermediary instead of finding self gnosis. (more…)

The Black Horse

In the Revelation of St. John, it is written about the black horse; “When the Lamb broke the third blackhorse of revelationseal, I heard the third living being say, ‘Come!’ And I looked up and saw a black horse, and its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. And a voice from among the four living beings said, ‘A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley for a day’s pay. And don’t waste the olive oil and wine.” (Revelation 6:5-6, NLT) (more…)

The Medieval Artificial Intelligence of Mechanical Talking Heads

The Knights Templar were believed to have possessed a talking head that was known as Baphomet. A brazen head that was said to be made Brazen-Headof brass or bronze in the shape of a man’s head and able to answer any question that their masters had asked it. It may have been one of the reasons for their downfall, when Philip IV of France had attacked the great Templar Order in 1307 accusing them of worshiping a demonic talking head.

Brazen Head, that today I believe we can just call “medieval artificial intelligence (AI).”

This story could be the conceptual ancestor of modern robots, sexy cyborgs, and the newly built artificial intelligence in the form of worm powered LEGO’s. A subject I will discuss in my next article.

The first French Catholic Pope, Gerbert of Aurillac, AKA Pope Sylvester II (c. 945–1003 CE), I have found was the first person ever documented in history to be in possession of a mechanical talking head. Gerbert had gained this scientific knowledge when he had went to Moorish Spain as a pupil at Cordova for the purpose of learning astrology and other sciences from the Saracens. It was said that here he soon exceeded Ptolemy in learning. (more…)

The Science of Demon Possession

Is demon possession real? Are there actual demons who can possess the bodies of humans?Demon serpent

You would be surprised to know that I believe I can prove to you that demon possession is not only possible, but that I also have modern science to back up my demonic claims.

The old beliefs of spirits, demons and devils possessing, impregnating, and even killing their victims can be compared today to modern science with our medical knowledge of microbes, viruses, and worms which kill humans by the billions. Many ancient cultures had believed in both what we call demons or angels possessing humans, and the science of worms being the cause of almost all human disease and sickness. These similarities between the demons of mythology with the scientific facts of the various worms and parasites of today is not a coincidence, but evidence that this science has been known for millenia.

Godlike Men Who Were Born of the Serpent

The symbol of the serpent and ouroboros you will often find in many sacred teachings such as Serpent and womanGnosticism and Hermeticism. The serpent in ouroboros form represents the eternity of the soul, and with the philosophers, it was a symbol for men of renown who were known as “the masters of wisdom.” There have been many Godlike men who were said to have been born of a serpent or dragon, and human mother who was either a virgin or sterile.

To understand these fabulous stories of divine births, and tales of dragons, we have to first comprehend that the ancients had considered the meaning of the esoteric symbology of the serpent to be both the creator in the form of the sperm, and destroyer in the form of the worm.

This was often symbolized by the serpentine ouroboros who eventually consumes itself by eating his tail. From sperm to man, to the destruction of man through the worm, it is an endless cycle.

Man, thy son, and the worm, thy father.
