Back To School, Things To Ask the Teacher

This is another re-presentation of a now-gone newsblaze.com article I wrote back in 2009. It has special significance now, with school lockouts and other insanity, well demonstrating the universal crisis of incompetence I have tried to inform about, across all fields, especially science and religion. I wrote the newsblaze articles for a wide, lay audience, note:

If there is any segment of the population that is not worried about making ends meet or being suppressed in its search for sure knowledge, it should be students in school. College in particular is traditionally supposed to offer the freest climate of ideas, subject only to the constraints of unbiased logic. Unfortunately, it isn't so today, in science.

So students -- and parents of students -- if you want to give your science teachers something to really think about, try the following thoughts. I guarantee they don't know the answer to these strange facts (though most of them will argue glibly that they do):

A design is anything that proclaims it was intentionally made, by appearing or operating in a way that cannot be attributed solely to the undirected physical processes known to science.

1) About the Moon

The Moon, science says today, was blasted off the Earth itself by a random collision with a Mars-sized body, less than a hundred million years after the Earth was formed; that is, the Earth was supposedly formed 4.5 billion years ago, so the Moon was knocked off of it more than 4.4 billion years ago. But that's just a cosmic instant after Earth's own formation. Isn't that strange, teacher -- or rather, isn't that a suspicious scenario: just one clean hit "in the beginning" and just one moon formed from it?

Amazingly, the collision was supposedly just strong enough, but not too strong, so that the Moon-material did not go careening off into deep space, but was caught and held by the Earth's gravitation. Even more amazing, the Mars-sized body that knocked it off the Earth did disappear into the void, never to be heard from again -- that must be why scientists say it was Mars-sized, because Mars is roughly ten times as massive as the Moon, and anything much smaller than Mars should also have been trapped by the Earth's gravitation, since Earth is roughly ten times more massive than Mars and a hundred times more massive than the Moon. But again, this is a suspicious scenario: The collision was not head-on, else the Earth would just have been enlarged, and no Moon would have been blasted off on an orbital trajectory around the Earth. Very tight constraints were operating on this "cosmic accident", then, in the size of the impacting body (smack dab in the middle, between the mass of the Earth and the mass of the Moon), the necessarily grazing hit it made on the Earth (that allowed it to "hit and run", or vanish cleanly from the vicinity), and the energy imparted to the Moon-material that resulted in its orbiting the Earth -- and remember, all this is on top of the suspicious circumstance that there was just this one clean hit on the Earth, very early; we can't blame it on "early chaos" in the solar system, because such chaos should have produced many collisions, and a literal mess of moons about the Earth, for which there is no evidence now whatsoever. Isn't that very strange, teacher?

Because, finally, teacher, the Moon has supposedly been slowly receding from the Earth for the last 4.4 billion years, and is now -- and throughout human history, the last 6,000 years or so -- at just the right distance to have precisely the same apparent size as the Sun in our sky, and thus to totally eclipse the Sun, both precisely and regularly. The probability of this occurring by chance is just 6,000 divided by 4.4 billion, or on the order of one in a million (1.36 in a million to be precise). And this is on top of the above suspicious circumstances of the strangely pristine "cosmic accident" that supposedly created the Moon. Yet science doesn't even hint it could have been anything but chance -- despite the unarguable scientific fact, that chance could not have done it, in many millions of tries. Isn't science just a trifle incompetent in failing to mention all this, or even emphasize it, teacher?

2) About Earth's landmasses

The eastern coasts of the landmasses on the Earth are curiously, even amazingly, distributed around the globe: These coasts, rather surprisingly, can all be approximated by straight lines, or great circles, on the globe (I bet you didn't know that, did you, teacher?), and when one does that, all of those lines are sensibly at the same angle with respect to the equator, and all are uniformly separated from one another around the equator. You can see clear images of these coast-marking lines in my blog post "A Challenge to Earth Scientists". Those lines, in fact, are part of a dodecahedron pattern on the globe (the origin of which you can read more about in my blog and my books on the real past design of the Earth).

I suggest, students, you go to my blog, download those images of the eastern coast lines of the landmasses, print them out and present them, all in a row, to your science teachers (or better, to university physics professors, who will probably laugh hollowly, but who won't be able to deny the fact, or what it means). Tell the teacher that this scientist told you that the probability for chance placement of all these landmasses, according to that strict dodecahedral layout on the globe, is less than one in a million million. Alternatively put, the probability they were deliberately parked according to that layout, as closely as they are, is greater than 0.999999999999. In other words, science must admit they were deliberately parked; they were not moved all over the Earth by undirected "continental drift", due to "plate tectonics", only to end up in so perfect a uniform distribution, just by chance. And that means plate tectonics, as it is taught today, cannot be true, doesn't it, teacher? With clear odds a million million to one against it? Really, now.

3) About Earth's Life

The debate over the possibility of design of the lifeforms on the Earth is a vicious one. No amount of cold reason applied to the actual evidence for design -- not merely suggesting the possibility of design, but positively indicating it, and denying chance -- is going to move anyone right now, much less a teacher who feels entitled to the high ground by virtue of his or her position and the current "scientific authority", or consensus. But, having proved to any unbiased, reasonable person that the Moon was placed where it is deliberately, not by chance, and that the very landmasses were placed where they are deliberately, not by chance, then , teacher, shouldn't science rethink its dismissal of design of the lifeforms on the Earth? After all, the physical context we have now established, for both the Earth and the Moon, is nothing but design. And when you rethink the biological evidence, design is clearly there -- as this scientist established for himself, apart from any debate in the wider world, and has written about it here, for example.

4) About the "Designer(s)"

Man adds his many small designs to the world, and scientists even talk of terraforming the world, and engineering new species, in the future. The world design I found (which included also the Moon, and the entire solar system -- sorry, but that's the naked truth, teacher) was done, according to the most ancient testimonies of man, by the "gods", who "came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men" (with a tip of the hat to "Superman"). We're not talking about science versus religion, or reason versus faith. We're talking about the original teachers, of mankind, and what they did. That is the new paradigm, sir and ma'am. Can we learn about that in class today?

Two Simple Facts Prove Roswell UFO Is Real

This is another re-presentation of a newsblaze.com article I wrote back in 2009, now disappeared after many years. I present it here both to keep it available, and to show how simply old (even ancient) mysteries can be solved. (This and all of my writings are the product of a mind freed, to a large extent, of all the dogmas of history, both ancient and modern. You know: "go thou and do likewise".):

It is time once again for the annual Roswell UFO Festival, July 2-5 [NB: this was originally written in June 2007; I wound up going to it ("go thou...") that year]. This is, in my opinion, the top UFO-related event in the world, because the Roswell incident of 1947 has proven to be definitive in validating the UFO phenomenon.

Skeptics refuse to accept this, and even believers don't seem to realize just what it is about the Roswell story that proves UFOs are real. The debate just goes on and on, on radio talk shows mostly, although the solution has been right out in the open since the public was first informed, back on July 8, 1947. The continuing performances of dedicated skeptics deriding UFOs is a monstrous fraud upon the public, which the public has been witless enough to let pass, because it has had little incentive and therefore little abiding interest in focusing upon the certain but supremely awkward truth.

The facts that prove the reality of the UFO crash near Roswell are these (and they are deceptively simple, so listen closely): 1) The military itself reported the crash to the world media as genuine, and 2) The day after the initial public release of the story, higher military authority changed that story, claiming that the wreckage recovered was in fact a weather balloon array, mistaken for alien material by the Roswell air field personnel.

Why do these facts prove the UFO? Because both the intelligence officer and commanding officer of the Roswell military post examined the wreckage and confirmed its alien nature. (I won't dwell on the details here. You can best get them on roswellufomuseum.com and other sites dedicated to the event.) These officers, with the added concurrence of the post's information officer, put out to the world the original story that they had retrieved a bonafide UFO of non-man-made materials.

These were the top officers of a wartime bomber group, one of the most serious occupations in the world. (If you haven't been in the military and don't know just how serious it was and is, in and out of war, check out the movie "Twelve O'Clock High", made in 1949 about a wartime bomber group.) They would not begin to think of fooling around with such a story, they would have to have been insane to risk both their own and, even worse, the military's reputations. They were entirely professional and competent. They would not have identified the craft as alien without overwhelming evidence. They were sincere in their identification and honest and quick in sending out the story to the world. These career military officers were never impugned in their character, honesty or on-going competence in their duties.

Military higher-ups did, however, impugn their basic competence to recognize military hardware, when they issued pictures of the intelligence officer, Jesse Marcel, with supposed crash material, in which that material was obviously flimsy tin foil attached to thin wooden sticks -- a childish fake, perpetrated upon an all-too-trusting public more than ready to laugh rather than look closely, in the years following a long and desperate war. The Roswell officers went along with this deception, under orders, but the issuing of this obviously flimsy story in fact proved the reality of the UFO, because it is simply inconceivable that a competent army intelligence officer, of a wartime bomber group (post-World War II, in 1947, but into the Cold War by then), would not see what any teenage model builder could see was faked "crash" material.

No, the Roswell officers knew what they had recovered was real. They reported it so, to the world. The quick effort to portray their identification as premature and in fact embarrassingly wrong, should have shown any competent investigator that their superiors were engaging in a cover-up of the truth. It was such a paper-thin cover-up (literally, given the flimsy "wreckage" brought out) that it counts rather as confirming evidence of the reality of the UFO. Yet the public has let the cover-up slide over them ever since, even after Jesse Marcel finally came forward, in 1978, with the truth as he knew it, better than anyone.

You need to know that many old, ongoing debates really should have been settled long ago, but the solutions have been suppressed through misdirection, and vainglorious impugning of the clear facts, by higher authorities -- in both government and in science -- unwilling to face self-correction, and by a public content with easy dogmas (both ancient and modern) and unwilling to face new truths. This is the defining crisis of our time. See my blog, theendofthemystery, for information about the discovery that overturns much that science pretends to know about our world and its origin.

For Monty Python Fans, A Special Request

This is a re-presentation of yet another 2009 newsblaze.com article I wrote, now not to be found there anymore:

Let's see, how do I approach this? Everybody knows John Cleese, of Monty Python fame, right? Well, Monty Python fans, perhaps you will remember this episode, and let other readers know it really exists, because otherwise many may not believe what they are about to read:

The scene is a bare military room, with a low table and a very large map of Africa--maybe six feet high--on the wall behind. John Cleese walks in dressed as an army officer of stern bearing, to address the troops in a classroom situation. As he begins to harangue the men, who are off-camera, he stands in front of and just to the side of the map of Africa, and two things quickly become obvious: First, he is playing a martinet, a very tough taskmaster, of fearsome bearing; and second, just behind him Africa looks like the facial profile of a man of similar fearsome personality. As the skit continues, audience laughter begins and grows, as it becomes ever more obvious that this skit is all about that image of Africa, as a fearsome face. It is such an uncanny resemblance, you can only laugh, because it really is just an accurate map of Africa, and it really looks for all the world like a man's face, in profile, and John Cleese mirrors its fierce personality perfectly.

Now, if any Monty Python fans can tell me how to cite this episode in a serious article or scientific paper, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you, because here is what I really want to tell my readers:

I am a physical scientist and professional researcher. In 1997, I found a design encompassing both the terrestrial and celestial spheres—that is, in the shapes of the landmasses on Earth, and the constellation forms on the celestial sphere, or “Heaven” of the ancients. It was an electric discovery, and it was just the beginning of uncovering what I came to call the great design of the "gods", and the message it contains for all of us on the Earth.

I have written a whole book about uncovering the great design, which required a wholesale re-formation of not only the Earth, but the entire solar system (for the design includes precise information about a former orientation of the solar system, before it was changed--information which is precisely saved in ancient texts and very early sacred images, worldwide).

But how to introduce this to a wide audience, that I believe should know about this amazing world-encompassing design, imposed upon the Earth millennia before the beginning of known history?

I think I know how, although it's iffy in the present skeptical intellectual climate, and with all the other concerns that besiege most of us, these days. I can begin by showing you clear examples of design on the Earth, and in the solar system beyond, that are so clear they would long ago have been recognized as such, if design of the world was seriously considered, by science, rather than casually dismissed as a thinly-veiled religious threat to “rational” thought. I pointed out one such obvious example of design in my 2009 article, “The Clockwork Moon Science Ignores” [and re-presented here in 2016].

Now, find yourself a good atlas, with an accurate image of Africa. I have included a simplified one here, showing the outline of Africa, the interior lakes along the Great African Rift outlining the "cheek", the larger Lake Victoria as a recognizable "eye", and the Zambezi river as the "mouth".

This image was one of the first indications I found of a deliberate shaping of the landmasses on the Earth, in my research. And, while some will tell you that it is just a subjective illusion to see the face in Africa, I know better, because I remember that Monty Python skit, which turned on that precise resemblance, and succeeded so well because of the amazing fact of it.

The landmasses of the Earth exhibit many creature-like shapes, mostly incomplete or otherwise tantalizingly vague, but many like Africa are quite striking and clear. And they are almost all upright on the globe of the Earth, with north defined as "up"--and that means they were not randomly positioned, but deliberately shaped and placed upright. The landmasses of the Earth were designed, as any child can see--and as mankind was taught, in its childhood, by the "gods".

The great design is the biggest combination jigsaw puzzle, illustrated story and world-encompassing treasure hunt (which Isaac Newton himself long sought) ever seen--and it's a scientific fact.

Atlantis At Last, Parts 2 and 3

Part 1 of this former series of newsblaze.com articles, no longer available on the internet, is my 2009 blog post, "Atlantis At Last". Below is a re-presentation of the two newsblaze sequels, now remade as one:

In the first article [linked above], I identified the legendary Atlantis as primarily Greenland, but including also the islands of the United Kingdom and Iceland. In this article, I will show detailed matchups between Atlantis and these lands that spectacularly confirm those identifications. This of course causes immediate problems with the best modern geological theories.

The first such problem is with the mid-ocean rift system, whose branches stretch over 40,000 miles around the globe. On maps of the world ocean floor, these "rifts" look like ragged scars, raggedly healed -- but healed, nevertheless, despite modern theory that calls them "spreading ridges". As detailed in my book, "The End of the Mystery" [available in two volumes on amazon.com], the great design of the "gods" identifies them as something else entirely: They are in fact the paths along which a number of the landmasses of the Earth were moved, in order to make the world as it now is. And they were deliberately and masterfully sutured closed, afterwards.

Atlantis, for example, was moved -- along rifts recognized today -- southwest from the Indian Ocean, around the southern tip of Africa, and then northward up the center of the Atlantic Ocean, past North and South America.

This was not done in a day or a year, but over many years: The Athanasius Kircher map of Insula Atlantis, discussed in "Atlantis At Last", shows that the Egyptians knew of Atlantis as a fixed land, in the position described by Plato as "in front of" and "outside" the Pillars of Heracles.

When, around 9600 BC, Atlantis was moved further north, it was evidently done stealthily, and of course under the cover of natural, cataclysmic processes, for man was taught that it simply disappeared under the waves in a single day of earthquake and flood. And it has remained more or less hidden in its final location, as Greenland, under a 2-mile thick covering of ice.

Today's earth scientists believe that all of the landmasses did indeed once move over the surface of the globe. They even posit a former landmass, containing a good portion of what would become the United Kingdom, that travelled north toward Greenland, or rather toward that portion of the former continent Laurentia which would become Greenland. They call this supposed landmass Avalonia, after the romantic lost isle Avalon to which King Arthur was taken upon his death.

However, they don't think any land moved along an ocean rift, because they consider every rift to have been merely the line between two separating landmasses. And they think that Greenland was always attached to Laurentia, the primordial North America, and thus always in its present relative position on that continent.

The design would have us put the jigsaw puzzle of the Earth together in a different way -- for a jigsaw puzzle is what it is, whose pieces were deliberately scattered and reassembled by the "gods".

Make no mistake, if Greenland is Atlantis, modern earth science is far off-base, and only getting farther off with every supposed "advance".

So let's look more closely at Atlantis, and the lands I say it became. Here is the image I introduced in my book, and in "Atlantis At Last", of Greenland overlain on Atlantis.

In addition to the very close similarity in the size and outlines of Atlantis and Greenland, the Kircher map of Atlantis also shows interior details -- a very large mountain symbol, for example, and six rivers extending far inland from the coast, crossing the outline of Greenland.

Looking closely at the coastal geography of present-day Greenland, one can positively identify fully three of those six rivers of Atlantis, confirming Greenland as the largest remnant of Atlantis. As the accompanying images show, present-day waterways precisely mark both the locations and directions of flow of one river on the western coast of Greenland and two on the eastern coast. (If the reader is into verifiable details, the former is the Vaigat, the latter are the Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden on the northeast and the Kejser Franz Joseph Fjord further south.)

The island of England and Scotland fits snugly into the space between the east coast of Greenland and the former east coast of Atlantis, and the two rivers of Atlantis here allow one to place the UK island precisely, as shown (hopefully, the image is good enough for the reader to make out the faint outline of that island I have placed there).

The southeast coast of Greenland also has a remarkable fan-like arrangement of fjords that merge at the coast. The northwest coast of Iceland has a similar arrangement of peninsulas, of the same extent as those fjords, indicating Iceland came from the southeast corner of Atlantis, approximately as shown. Note that with Iceland tilted to follow the former coastline of Atlantis, its peninsula-fan is oriented the same as the fjord-fan of Greenland. The designers left many visual clues to the former placement of landmasses.

The above simple geographical discussion by itself is convincing proof that the identity of Atlantis has been found. Both present-day Greenland and the former Atlantis landmass are also associated with some of the most famous of ancient myths, which independently prove their identification. These associations are detailed in "The End of the Mystery" [and below, in this re-presentation].

Be warned, this is not just an interesting finding, but a proof (actually, one out of many proofs) of the ancient deliberate re-formation of the world. This is an unavoidable indictment of modern scientific theories of the Earth, as well as religious beliefs about the creation of the world. Both theories and beliefs are undermined by being tied to false dogmas, which are injurious not just to the truth but to the spirit of man, which finally depends upon the truth.

I want now to introduce how the design motivated ancient beliefs, words and legends, using the example of Atlantis/Greenland discussed in the last two articles.

The fundamental fact behind the ancient testimonies, such as myths, is the idea of "sacred images". I found this is the conceptual key to all the ancient mysteries, and the original sacred images of mankind were the forms given the landmasses on the Earth by the designers.

Here is the image of Greenland on the globe today. It should be noted that this (as with the other Earth images) is the "gods'-eye view", looking down on the Earth from space -- a realization that underscores the fact that the "gods" made the design on the Earth, and only they could have.

What sacred image, or images, does Greenland represent? Like all the images on the Earth, it is a simple outline, with a vague but decided resemblance to a number of objects, familiar even to a child. This, shall we say, artistic quality allows it to play a part in many myths, as different characters, which I discuss in my "End of the Mystery" books. We will follow just one of these characters here.

Greenland first looked to me most like the seated torso of a woman, because of the smoothness and the shape of the southern coastlines, outlining as it were the "leg" and "rear end" of the figure. Over many months, I gradually brought together a number of independent strands of ancient testimony and modern knowledge that, amazingly, confirmed my initial impression.

For example, a recurring character in Greek myth is that of the maiden, or virgin, pursued by Zeus or one of his equally lusty brothers. The most famous virgin in myth is Io, who was, incredible as it sounds, "changed into a snow-white heifer" by Zeus, to hide her from his wife, Hera. Now look again at Greenland: While its southern half resembles a "virgin", or young woman, on its northwest corner it bears a creature-like face, with a short muzzle. It looks rather like a dog, or a calf -- or, considering it as a female, a heifer. And Greenland is famous for its whiteness -- in fact, snow white, just like Io -- due to the ice that covers it almost entirely.

So, just like the mythical Io, Greenland can be recognized -- by even a child -- as both a woman and a "snow-white" calf. It is the only shape on the Earth that, remarkably, fits the unique mythical description of Io. It is also a major landmass, which would indeed require it to represent just such a famous character in myth, if the landmasses motivated the myths.

The myth of Io also fits the movement of Atlantis along the mid-ocean rift, as I discussed briefly in "Atlantis At Last". For Hera sent a gadfly to chase and pester Io, causing her to wander over the Earth. So both the landmass and the mythical character were "wide-wanderers" on the Earth.

We have now four independent markers identifying Io with Greenland/Atlantis: The "virgin", the "calf", the "snow-white" color, and the wide wandering.

We can in fact complete the identification of myth and landmass in every detail. Just to the southeast of Greenland today is Iceland, which has a strange fanlike arrangement of peninsulas, pointing toward Greenland as if to poke it. As a sacred image, Iceland can be identified with the gadfly sent by Hera to torture Io over the Earth. (And the shape of nearby North America can be identified with the creature Argus sent by Hera to guard Io closely. One can easily imagine this was also the ancient origin of the fairy tale "Snow White", who was also driven out, in the deadly care of a guard, and hounded by the wicked Queen -- just as Hera was Queen to Zeus.)

To top off the by-now sure identity of Io and Greenland, fully six European nations use essentially the same word for "green": "verde", or a very similar word ("vert" in French, "vihrea" in Finnish). And "green" is a synonym for "virgin", meaning unused, untried, or unripe. The Portuguese "verde" is even pronounced, "veer-jee". So Greenland is indeed the "Virgin land" on the designed Earth. Portuguese legend tells of an Atlantis-like island known as "Ilha Verde", and the French an "Ile Vert", both meaning "Green Isle".

And finally, the myth says that Io was turned into a snow-white heifer "in the fair island of Abantis", alias Atlantis. It is also the "Avalon" of Arthurian legend and the "Abaton" of Osiris thousands of years earlier -- and every other "Lost Isle to the West", such as "Elysium", "Ultima Thule", and most recently, the "Westernesse" (literally, "Western Isle") and "Numenor" of J.R.R. Tolkien. Further south, as Atlantis, it was fair indeed; in the cold north, under thick ice, it has lain hidden in plain sight throughout history. The design behind the ancient mysteries is thoroughly recorded in all the ancient, sacred testimonies; this has been only one example of that undoubted fact.

The Holy Grail and the Great Design

This is a re-presentation of my 2009 newsblaze.com article:

A popular theory about the Holy Grail today [2009-HDH] is that it referred to the biblical Mary Magdalene, who unbeknownst to history was the wife of Jesus Christ and gave birth to a son by him, thus continuing his direct line. This is, however, merely a poor sequel to what was meant to be a transcendent story of the Christ, or divinely perfected man, reducing it to the hope of any man that his line should continue.

In reality, the Holy Grail, or "cup of the Son (of God)" is but one example of a recurring motif in ancient myths, of the "Golden Cup of the Sun" (This play upon the homonyms "Son" and "Sun" is very old, and continues to this day.)

The Holy Grail's direct association with the Sun is easily confirmed: The word "grail" is from an earlier "greal" or "grial", and the ancient Irish word for the Sun was "grian" (from which we also get "green", as in green grass and trees, celebrated from earliest times as nourished by the Sun).

Irish is a Celtic language, and the Celts were one of the earliest known settlers of the British Isles. The Holy Grail, although grafted onto the romantic legend of King Arthur, is essentially an ancient Celtic tradition, often linked by scholars with the magically full cauldron of one or another god, goddess or hero, in Celtic and other myths, such as the Greek "Cornucopia," or Horn of Plenty. The Horn, or Cauldron, of Plenty is in turn identifiable with the Cup of Christ -- symbolically filled with his abundant, eternal life -- as famously celebrated in the Catholic Mass. It is also the cup that appears from the "churning of the cosmic ocean" in Indian myth, full of amrita or soma, the "water of life" of the gods--or in Greece, the "nectar" drunk by the gods. This water of life "refreshed" the gods, or maintained their immortality by rejuvenating them, so the "cup" can be identified with both the "fountain of youth" and the "tree of life" of still other traditions. (In the Norse mythology, the tree of life was the tree in the center of the Garden of Idun--obviously the same as the Garden of Eden--upon which grew Golden Apples, which were again the food eaten by the gods to rejuvenate themselves. Since Adam and Eve also famously ate the apple from the same Tree in the center of the Garden, this tells us the great but open secret (“Know ye not ye are gods?”) of the ancient mystery traditions and modern “Positive Thinking” gurus alike. The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam recalls another example of the cup of the Sun, from ancient Iran (Persia), in these lines:

Thus every major tradition--of a cup or similar source of ever-renewed life--can be linked to the other, and all refer to the same thing, in a single endless chain of variations on one central myth.

The common source of all these ancient religious beliefs--the true point at which the esoteric and exoteric traditions merge, or rather from which they diverged “in the beginning”--was a world-encompassing deed of the "immortal spirits" or "gods": It was a great design of the world, which all the myths and legends minutely describe, in innumerable and precise scattered fragments, and thus decisively verify the design as fact, as the author has been the first in history to do. Ancient myths were, and still are when properly interpreted, both religion and hard science. They were, in short, sacred history, meant to pass down an all-important truth about the origin of the world and man, in terms both sacred and endlessly satisfying to the human imagination, based as they are upon the common human experience--glorious, dramatic tales of love and war, of heroes overcoming all obstacles, and the eternal mysteries of life and death--all of them motivated by the real design of the world. Science does not want to hear this, but the world needs to know the truth.

See also "Design Behind the Ancient Mysteries"It should be child's play to recognize the Holy Grail now. As shown in the accompanying illustration, it is the double-cone shape of the Earth in precession, which is a readily recognizable, indeed famous goblet shape.

Ancient Mysteries No Longer Mysteries: The Great Sphinx at Giza

This is another re-presentation, of the answer to the ancient mystery of the Sphinx. I wrote a short article ("The Riddle of the Sphinx -- Solved") at newsblaze.com many years ago, and cited it in a 2009 blog post here. That article has since disappeared, so here it is again:

Egyptologists say the Great Sphinx at Giza in Egypt is 4500 years old, or about as old as the Great Pyramid. Many alternative researchers believe its rain-eroded enclosure and deeply weathered platform makes it older, between 7500 and 9000 years.

Now revolutionary new knowledge has come to light: Authoritative information anciently encoded on both the terrestrial and celestial spheres tells us the Sphinx is about 10,700 years old, more than twice as old as modern science would have us believe, but confirming of what Plato wrote concerning Egypt almost 2400 years ago.

But there is much more to the Sphinx than just its creation date; it commemorates the very establishment of a great design of the world -- the actual re-formation of Earth and "Heaven" -- more than 17,000 years ago, as uncovered and verified in my research, and outlined in the article, "Design Behind the Ancient Mysteries".

Who is right? Modern science thinks the Sphinx was carved in the reign of the Pharaoh Khafre, who is credited also with the middle, or "second" pyramid at Giza, physically linked to the Sphinx by a megalithic stone causeway. Egyptologists say the face on the Sphinx is that of Khafre himself. Alternative researchers say Khafre only did restorative work on the monument, and the face does not match his, as known from other statues and verified by a modern forensic expert.

But neither Egyptologists nor past alternative researchers know what the Sphinx actually represents. They can only speculate about its date of creation.

The "alternative" explanation is that the Sphinx represents the constellation Leo, and some say this points to a time 12,500 years ago (10,500 BC) when Leo was on the vernal equinox; but the strongest link they can make to this date is that the psychic Edgar Cayce said while in trance that the Great Pyramid was built at that time, in his words "10,499 years before the prince of peace entered Egypt".

Egyptologists and other scientific "experts" deny a Leo connection, saying the constellation was only invented in the first millennium BC, long after the Sphinx was carved. And most importantly, just what was supposed to have happened in human history, at that time or earlier, so strange and wonderful as to have led one of the earliest civilizations on Earth to carve such a monstrous yet strangely childish thing? Without knowing that, speculations about the mere date of creation of the Sphinx are empty indeed.

Actually, my research was the first to prove what alternative truth-seekers have long believed but never established as fact, the direct ancient identification of the Great Sphinx with Leo. This is how it is done: The Sphinx was associated in ancient texts with a god having the strange name "Rwty", which it turns out is really "rw-ty", meaning "two lions". The Egyptians in fact used a recumbent-lion image (the same form as both the constellation Leo, and the Sphinx) for the hieroglyph known today as "rw"; and while Egyptologists pronounce this as "ru", they also know it was used to represent the "l" sound in non-Egyptian names such as "Ptolemy" and "Cleopatra".

Long before I came upon those facts, I had independently verified that the "w" used by the Egyptians in such words as "rw-ty" originally stood for an "ee--ooh" ("you") or "ee--oh" pronunciation. So the actual pronunciation of the "rw" lion symbol in ancient Egypt was "lw", or "leo", the same name we use for a lion today. (Similarly, the classical Greeks knew the Pharaoh Khwfw as "Cheops", and the Greek counterpart of "Ushas", the Indian goddess of the dawn, was "Eos".)

But why "two lions" in referring to the Great Sphinx? Because it was carved, at the time when ancient Egypt was established, when Leo was at one "gate" of the year: the spring equinox; but it commemorated a date six and a half millennia earlier, when the great design of the Earth and solar system was imposed, and Leo was at another "gate" of the year: the "gate to the underworld", or winter solstice.

Leo was on the vernal equinox continuously for more than 2000 years, and the difference between the 12,500 years ago of other researchers and the time I discovered, 10,700 years ago, is 1800 years: To make a long story short, past alternative efforts focused upon the time when the rear end of Leo was on the vernal equinox, but the correct time is when its head was there; more precisely, the Great Sphinx was carved when the vernal equinox was just by the star Regulus in Leo -- known since antiquity as the "heart of the lion", since it marks the breast of the figure, just below the head.

The reason we can know this precisely is because of my research into the great design, which is too lengthy to go into here but proves that the central design -- of the Earth's current orientation and motions in space -- was completed about 17,100 years ago. At that time, the star Regulus was at the winter solstice, and this is the circumstance which not just the lion figure of the Sphinx but all of its ancient names as well are meant to commemorate.

The Sphinx's ancient name of "Horemakhet", for example, is currently thought to have meant "Horus on the horizon", but it actually meant "Horus at the gate to the underworld", or in real terms "Leo at the winter solstice", with the precise meaning I have given above. Another of its names, "Hwl", became to the local Arabs "Abu Hol", or "father of terror"; but "Hwl", according to what I have written about the Egyptian "w", should be pronounced "hyule" -- and "yule" was the ancient name for the winter solstice, and is still used for Christmas-time (as the winter solstice comes on or about December 21st each year). Many other ancient riddles, in fact, are solved by knowing that the ancient name for the winter solstice was "yule".

At best, Egyptologists generally can only say the Great Sphinx is linked by hieroglyphic inscriptions to the Sun-God of various names in different ancient testaments: Atum, Aton, Horus and Ra (or Re). Actually, these names are not all correct, as research into the great design has proved, and as students of hieroglyphics can readily confirm: "Atum" was really "Itm", and "Aton" was "Itn" (and thus better pronounced "eaten") -- that is, "eden".

No, I'm not hinting that the land around Giza was the original Eden of the Bible. But it, like the Sphinx, was meant to commemorate the original Eden, which was at the center of the great design of the "gods". The "Garden of Eden" is identified in my books and in "Design Behind the Ancient Mysteries"; in one widely used ancient metaphor, it was the very "mouth" of the mythical "golden cup of the Sun", as discussed in my 2009 NewsBlaze article, "The Holy Grail and the Great Design" [NB: now disappeared, but re-presented here], and as pictured on this page.

Briefly, the Earth was set up in the Design like a toy top in space. Modern physical scientists know that, just like a leaning, spinning top, the Earth precesses -- that is, like the top it doesn't fall over; rather, its spin axis revolves around its orbital axis, always maintaining about the same angle between the two axes (around 23.5 degrees). Here is the image of the precession, well-known to science.

The north pole of the Earth's spin axis now points close to the star Polaris on the celestial sphere; just where it points is called the Celestial North Pole, or CNP. As the figure shows, in the precession the CNP circles the north pole of the ecliptic axis, the ENP. The CNP will come closest to Polaris in about 2105 AD, and goes entirely around the circle in about 25,900 years. [Note the goblet (cup) shape of the outline of the above image. This, in brief, is the "golden cup of the Sun", the ancient mystery that gave rise to the "Holy Grail" of Christian myth.]

So it is a well-known scientific fact that the ENP is at the center of that precession circle. Compare this scientific understanding with world myths, in which the image of that circle and its center, the ENP, was widely known, metaphorically, as the "garden of the gods", with a "tree of life" in the center.

The precession circle around the ENP was in fact both the "home and garden of the gods" in every major mythical tradition: Hyperborea (the "Land Beyond North") and "Many-Peaked" Olympus, in the Greek; Asgard in the Norse; Swarga in India; Xian in China; the Duat in Egypt -- and the "many-pointed Lotus" of both Egypt and India (with Brahma, the "All-Father" or Creator, standing in the center of the lotus, in India's mythical tradition, just as Ra-Osiris -- the "Source" -- stands in the center of the Egyptian Duat).

The land of Egypt itself was changed to represent that circle, around 8700 BC, or 10,700 years ago, when the star Regulus in Leo was on the spring equinox. This confirms the date given by Plato, in his "Timaeus", for the establishment of Egypt by the goddess Neith, alias Athene: eight thousand years before Solon visited Egypt (c. 600 BC).

The Nile delta was deliberately formed to have a circular arc, and with Giza at the center of that arc. This has been known to science ever since Napoleon conquered Egypt at the end of the 18th century, and had his savants, or scientists, make a detailed study of the fabulous land. Before the discovery of the great design, no one could have known what this mysterious geographic property of Egypt meant; now we know Egypt was deliberately designed as a commemorative land, pointing to the setting up of the Earth and solar system in their present orbital orientation, when the Earth began to precess around a newly-established ecliptic axis of the solar system. (This must have been the great design feat celebrated in the biblical book of Job, "when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of Elohim [literally, "the gods"] shouted for joy".)

Here is an image of the area of Egypt on the globe, with the circle indicated by the Nile delta drawn upon it.

Remember I said above, the precession circle was represented as the "many-pointed lotus" in Egypt and India? Here is an image of the egyptian lotus, from a 19th Dynasty work of art. Note how closely this image mimics the Nile river and its delta, as seen from space.

The memory of man on Earth goes back further than we have been led to believe, especially in such lands as Egypt. It goes all the way back, in myth, to the golden race among whom the "gods" once walked, on a younger Earth. These would have been the "sons of God" mentioned fleetingly in the Bible, and the "nephelim" or "cast down" ones. Again, I have given much confirming evidence of this in "The End of the Mystery".

The great design of the Earth and solar system was imposed by the extraterrestrial "gods" of worldwide myth and legend -- "when the earth was divided" (according to the Bible, in Genesis 10:25), whole continents were rafted over the Earth (according to the great design, as well as to modern science only in recent decades) and "the new gods were born" among the planets (according to Greek myth).

Re-Presenting: Design Behind the Ancient Mysteries Part 3

Part 3 of "Design Behind the Ancient Mysteries" (from 2005). I thought this would be a 4-part presentation of the original paper, but I see that what would have been part 4 was in fact included in the 2009 post, Challenge to Science III, as an "UPDATE":

The “gods” adopted the idea of projecting the celestial sphere onto the terrestrial globe in order to record their design deeds. They provided for a whole series of precise, easily-identifiable mappings of “heaven on earth”, by shaping landmasses on Earth to match constellation forms (Figure 10, next page). For example, the main form of the constellation Cepheus can be precisely mapped onto the African Horn, the forepart of the constellation Centaurus closely resembles the form of the eastern coast of North America, Crater can be precisely fitted to Hudson Bay, and so on.

Figure 10--Examples of constellation forms matched to continental outlines.

Such wholesale, precise re-formations of continental landmasses by the “gods” would explain the creation accounts, in Genesis and in other religious traditions, which stressed that God “separated the land from the waters.” These re-formations also left the landmasses with an abundance of creature-like shapes, almost all upright on the globe and hence clearly the work of design. These creature images can be identified with the best known of mythological characters, worldwide (as treated in some detail in "The End of the Mystery").

Only in the last century has science shown that the continents have indeed been broken up, moved over the surface of the Earth, and re-formed. The idea of “continental drift” was resisted for decades, because geophysicists saw no natural force capable of it. But the design of the "gods", and the ancient testimonies that derived from it, are quite clear (again, as detailed in "The End of the Mystery"): The designers broke apart, moved, and re-formed whole continents into their present locations and shapes, in order to enable various constellation forms to be matched to various landforms, in a series of mappings of "heaven onto earth" that, together with the myths and other ancient traditions of mankind, tell the story the "gods" wanted to leave behind for man to find, when he had grown enough in understanding to see it. These mappings were undoubtedly the objective origin of the ancient religious tradition, and prime hermetic dictum, of "as above, so below", or "on earth as it is in heaven." (This should not be taken as the only meaning of that worldwide tradition; it was affirmed as a primary spiritual truth. The author’s research has been to establish the objective, physical origin of the world’s strikingly similar mythologies and traditions, not to deny the spiritual.)

A particularly clear demonstration of the fact of the design, and its precision, is shown in a generic mapping of the celestial sphere, as in Figure 2, onto the Earth, which may be termed a precessional mapping, with the celestial north pole mapped onto the terrestrial north pole. Figure 11 shows such a mapping, whose defining feature is the location of the vernal, or spring, equinox point on the Earth, which was established at the island of Sulawesi.

Figure 11--Ancient precessional mapping of celestial sphere onto Earth.

Sulawesi (formerly Celebes) is shaped like the mathematical symbol and Greek letter "pi", and the author has verified the ancient use of that name, "pi", for the vernal equinox point on the Earth. Figure 12, next page, shows a close-up of this point, showing how the adjacent coast was curved around it, with a diameter the same as that of the Sun in the sky (0.53 degrees), to represent the point where the Sun rises above the (celestial) equator, on the first day of spring.

Figure 12--Close up of the vernal equinox point on the Earth.

This point on the equator, at the very tip of the Manimbaya peninsula, was the literal "spring of Urd (Earth)" of Norse myth, an identification which enables one to precisely locate all the major points of the Norse mythography (Figure 13).

Figure 13--The precession mapping and Norse mythical places.

This part of the Earth was named the "Orient" to refer to the symbolic "rising" of the Sun here as on the vernal equinox; it was called the "East" for the same reason, because the Sun also "rises" each day (above the horizon), in the east. Also, Figure 12 refers to a "Great Mapping", according to which the Earth was designed; in this mapping, Japan lay along the rising path of the Sun--and so it was called the "land of the rising sun" (although it is not the only land on that path).

Four of the mappings identified by the author, in particular, unequivocally and precisely show where the ENP formerly was on the celestial sphere, by identifying the former precession circle around it (Figure 14)--proving that the orbit of the Earth, and the entire solar system (which is predominantly aligned with the Earth orbit), was deliberately changed from that previous orientation.
