Plato observed that
advent of an alphabet making writing efficient for average people actually lead to less knowledge or disciplined communication. We need not blame
Phoenicians for this because people really could benefit from writing. John Locke and many other scientists during
time when man thought there was some reality in prejudices like The Scale of Nature observed that language was a pre-requisite for consciousness. Although there is some truth in his observations which include
Tabula Rasa, this is pure hogwash and perhaps even worse than that. He may well have sought to make people feel inferior just as that Scale of Nature was designed to do to so many non-Europeans.
Common sense is a most uncommon thing it appears. We still have many people living under
pall of
Bible Narrative and other ‘absolute religions’ (Fukayama and social engineers know how to use) which have whole histories of deceit woven into their dogma and
laws that form
structure of our society. I am all for
Kat-ma concept of Karma which would have these social engineers meet their maker and put an end to that Dog-ma. It is unfortunate that scholars who are interested in making a living often have to go along with things they know are only half true at best. It is more unfortunate that good money can be made debunking real scholarship and exploration by
likes of Barraclough Fell and other Epigraphists. Please take a look into Rob Gombach of Utah State University as he says Fell was only a hobbyist.
The treatment of
concept of OM by
Catholic Encyclopedia is a fine example of what is wrong with our society I think. Here is a little of what they say to start our voyage beyond conventional thinking. Om is
sacred syllable of Hinduism used by all schools in their meditation system. It expresses
'world-soul' concept of Brahman. It is pronounced at
beginning of
recitation of
'mantras'. In practice, this concept is expressed in Hindu teaching as:
“‘All humanity converging at
foot of that sacred place where is set
symbol that is no symbol,
name that is beyond all sound.’ In
system of practices that make up Hinduism, there is
possibility of introducing this concept through an intensified psychic response or through practices that are diabolic {What?! This is certainly a great expression of
Pope's ecumenical interests. This mentions nothing about it being like
Holy Spirit or what physicists say which I relate to
Logos. It is racial in
level of its prejudice and it is
kind of thing one should expect from 'Crusaders' with no soul.}. Here there is real danger, for this concept permits one to enter into a simple, self-delusive attitude {Rather than one created by
priests of this group of 'churchians' who do not follow
'living father within' that Jesus taught.} that misleads while at
same time acts to shut out all other avenues of Christian response. Its danger is in
blandishment whereby a Universal Religion (the core of Karma or
at-onement of divine assumption of all into one) precludes sin since there is no one to sin against. Thus it has often been cryptically likened to
evolutionary religious concepts advanced by Teilhard de Chardin {Who almost was ex-communicated and is a great ecumenicist.}, namely,
'omega' concept: ‘The revealed Christ is identical with omega. This christology of Chardin, an evolutionary complex, is stated in like manner: ‘Man bears along with him
world of beings inferior to God.’ (Letter 8/7/23 in 'Letters to Leontine Zanta.') (See Omega Point: Teilhardism.)” (1)
The Homeric scholars have found some things to prove
myth was not all mere fiction and this continues to
present in even more fascinating ways due to satellite technology as well as a weakening grip of Biblical intrigues or religious suppression. In
final analysis it is my sincere hope that people will become more spiritual and able to appreciate their religious icons were far more than
interpreters who used their image and good works. I am of
belief that when Homer wrote about ‘the underworld’ he was writing about North America and I know for certain that these people knew
earth was a sphere and had means to map and travel throughout
whole world since long before Homer. Much of knowledge started with observing
stars in world adventures or travels and man has always been adventurous. Here is
other ‘Om’ written as Ogham or Ogam.
“’While some marks may be related to Ogam, we are skeptical of translations because
perception of
marks on
rock, often worn or damaged, is subject to considerable variability from one observer to
next.’
No nation has a monopoly on illegibility, and
authors could profitably have consulted any edition of any ancient work, at
bottom of any page (where
variant readings are listed); there they would find subjectivity galore, and accepted as a matter of course. In any case, they should keep mum; some people have
same complaints about standing stones and alignments.” (2)
The cover-up of Ogham and all of its branches of knowledge may have started before Rome and there certainly was a lot of plagiarization or Hellenizing going on as new leaders usurped
history, technology and science of
Kelts or ‘keltoi’ and ‘Ogygia’, as
Greek (Danaus) called them. Ogygia in itself means ‘ancient ones’ and Plutarch has a map identifying Iceland as Ogygia but that does not mean it was anything more than an ancient Thulean outpost.
