“There is so much to learn. How am I supposed to do so?” Paul asked, almost exasperated.
“By repeating it again and again and again. Even things you think you cannot remember do stay within the mind. I can promise you this… one day in the future, you will learn something and it will immediately become clear and you will remember how you first heard it here, on this night.”
“I hope you are correct, for I feel a little overwhelmed and unsure if I shall ever recall all that you tell me.”
“You will…of that I have no doubt,” Theodoric reassured and waited a few moments. “Try and remember this for tonight at least for it all relates to the Aryans themselves. But first I just want to say this. Cities may burn, floods may destroy, pestilence may kill, and wars may ravage, yet a word may survive, and how so true that is only time will prove to you. Just a word can make all the difference!” Theodoric stated and sipped some water before continuing. “Now although the priests of Aton were monotheistic, Atonism itself was a corrupt version of earlier sacred traditions as explained. But the theology of Atonism was built upon the age old foundations of Monism and Druidism. The facts about the Amorists and Druids have, however, been deliberately obscured by the ideological descendants of the Atonists who have funded and directed so-called ‘historians’ to alter the facts about Egypt and Ireland and distort the meaning of many important terms and titles. One of the most misunderstood and a misapplied title is ‘Aryan’. To this day Ireland is known by the Gaelic ‘Eire’ and ‘Erin’, which refer directly to the primordial goddess Eri or Ari. Therefore, the syllables Ari and Eri either denote or connote the goddess after whom Ireland was named. In many cases, wherever root words such as Ari, Ara, Eri, and so on, are found, they connote or denote either the land of Ireland specifically or, alternatively, the western hemisphere. They signify the men of the West, their sacred land and beloved goddess and ultimately the ‘Sacred Feminine’. Goddesses permeated Ireland. Mountains, rivers, valleys, wells, all testified to their presence. From what you say, Firgany devised your very own wedding ceremony based upon many of these principles.”
“Yes…I think he and my father did. They explained it was all based upon truly ancient oaths and symbols, like the stones and throwing them into water…so yes, they did,” Paul smiled as he recalled his wedding day.
“Paul…one day in the future, perhaps hundreds of years, the Emerald Isle will again be known by its former ancient name of Eire…and when it is, that means that those of us who are trying to restore the harmony and balance both physically and spiritually, before the next upheavals occur, will be seen to be succeeding. If not…then a terrible fate awaits all of humanity. You see the name Eire is a name derived from the goddess Eriu, one of the triple goddesses, Eriu, Banba and Fotla…Eriu makes it clear that anyone wishing to enter Ireland would have to revere the goddesses if they wished to prosper and be fruitful. As to the original homeland of the Arya, the ancestral habitat of the Arya lay in the west. The lands of the northwest, namely Britain, Scandinavia, Iceland, Greenland, and perhaps even further as Tenno claims, are all just remnants of a lost worldwide civilisation now commonly referred to as just an island called Atlantis. The Aryans were members of an indigenous people neither in Europe nor in Central Asia, but had their original home and central government somewhere past the Pillars of Hercules…somewhere that was surrounded by all the oceans of the world, and they migrated from this place into Asia and Europe, not by any ‘irresistible impulse’, but by unwelcome changes in the climatic conditions of their original home. The Avesta traditions, which fully support this view, represent a real historical fact about mankind’s past; that we shall leave to another time. The most positive evidence in the most ancient books of the Aryan race, the Vedas and the Avesta, prove that the ancient home of the Aryan people was somewhere in regions not within our known world as we understand it presently. But…the strongly substantiated proof of the frequent travelling of sagas and myths from people to people, and their taking root among many different groups, shows that the majority of those myths have a common origin in their place of creation. And now we get to our good friends the Druids themselves.” Theodoric coughed and made himself more comfortable. Paul frowned at him briefly. “Druid colleges existed in many regions due to the guardian role of the Celtic race all across Europe. Druids, or Hibernian Gnostics as they might be called, were known to be fluent in several languages. The High Priests of Ireland, the original Arya or Aryans, are commonly known as ‘Druids’. In time, the truth of these great mystics will once again shine forth. The true Celts were a tall, fair race, warlike when they had to be and masterful…who spread their dominion both by conquest and by peaceful infiltration over Mid-Europe, Gaul, Spain and the British Isles. They did not exterminate the original prehistoric inhabitants of these regions…but they imposed on them their language, their arts and their tradition, especially in the important matter of religion. Among these races the true Celts formed an aristocratic class who would lead by example and with the ‘service to others’ mentality… not the selfish ‘service to self’ we see all about us now. Although the term ‘Druid’ is local, their religion was from a very ancient and distant origin as I have tried to explain. It was of equal antiquity to those of the Persian Magi, the Chaldeans of Assyria and the Brahmins of Hindustan. It resembled them so closely in its sublime precepts, in its consoling promises, as to leave no doubt that these nations, living so widely apart, were all of the same stock and the same religion, that of Noah, and the children of men before the flood, symbolically and literally so! For, without the Druids, the kings of antiquity may neither do nor consult anything, so that in reality it was they themselves, the Druids, who reigned…it is they who command, and kings on thrones of gold, dwelling in splendid palaces, are but their ministers, and the servants of their thought. The Druids were,” he paused, “are…men of penetrating and subtle spirit, and acquired the highest renown and respect by their deeds and knowledge, which were at once subtle and profound. Both Caesar and Mela plainly intimate that they were conversant with the most sublime speculations in geometry and in measuring the magnitude of the earth. The Druids…or Derwydd…were the greatest philosophers who directed the machinations of the state and the priesthood, and presided over the dark mysteries of the consecrated groves…Follow me, if you can imagine in your mind, to a corner of the world where, at least for many ages religion was preserved in its pristine purity, and whose priests…were received as martyrs in heaven before they had learned to be knaves upon earth. It was an isolated spot unknown to the world in the earlier ages of vice. It is now a kingdom renowned for its power and for its luxuries from hemisphere to hemisphere. It was encircled by the blue waters of the German and Atlantic Seas, and abounded in the choicest gifts of nature. It was called The White Island from those cliffs which still frown so coldly upon Gaul, and the Land of Green Hills from its verdant mountains. Come with me to its shores, and I will show you its priests in their white robes and its warriors in the blue paint of war, and its virgins with their long and glossy yellow hair. But first I will lead you back into the past, and relate to you why this land was called Albion, and why Britain.”
“I am getting the strong suggestion that Britain clearly is a sacred kingdom… and my mother was a native born of that realm?” Paul remarked quietly.
“Yes, and so I must explain briefly the Age of Catastrophe. For you see, some 10,000 years BC, there was an extinction event that decimated most of the ancient world on an unimaginable scale. The world is unaware of the existence of the pre-Flood high civilisations for the simple reason that they no longer exist. As the majority of myths and legends tell us, the continents that housed them were destroyed in a violent cataclysm. As our ancient forefathers tell us and as written down in the languages of them, our world was wrecked by a natural cataclysm of unimaginable proportions. The devastating catastrophe was recorded by numerous tribes and nations. It is mentioned in the earliest Irish legends. Due to its disruptive gl
obal effects, the world, being a sphere, as you now know, suffered subsequent upheavals. Significant disasters, floods of unbelievable scale and earthquakes, and volcanoes continued to shake the world at 8,000, 6,000 and 3,000 years BC intervals. The Mycenaean Drought, the eruption of Thera in the Aegean, which is recounted within the Bible when Moses, as you know is one and the same Akhenaton, led his people out of Egypt, the turning of the Sahara region of North Africa into a desert from lush green land, the rise of the waters of the Mediterranean, the dwindling of the vast Saraswati River in the Indus Valley in the Indian Basin, and the prolonged famine of Britain are just a few of the super catastrophes known to have occurred at different periods after the original global Age of Catastrophe mentioned in the records of antiquity. Legends from all over the world which tell of the fall of the prehistoric continents of Atlantis and Lemuria, being just two names for the pre-catastrophe world, record a real and exceptionally traumatising episode in humankind’s history. The Flood myth of legend and Biblical accounts, to the world is generally a vague tradition, but really conceals the most appalling visitation and its ravages in the British Isles and Scandinavian lands. Now then … concerning the Sphinx…which is another subject you must learn about, and learn it well…for there is an inscription that shows it was consecrated to the god Ra Atum or the ‘Sun in the West’, thereby connecting it with the ‘lands toward the setting sun’, with ‘the place of the dead’ and with the country of their ancestors’ origin. In the Irish Origins of Civilisation, the aftermath of the global catastrophe, nature’s fury was particularly devastating to Britain and Scandinavia. These lands were so smitten that they were throughout all the following ages referred to as ‘lands of the dead’. So horrific was the onslaught that the Western elders were, along with the aboriginal inhabitants of Britain and Scandinavia, forced to vacate their homelands for new habitations and territories in Europe and Asia. Wherever the elders travelled they were received as veritable gods. They, and their people, have been referred to by most historians as ‘Celts’. They are, however, properly distinguished by the more accurate titles of Aryans, Arya, Aryo, Ari, Goths, Gots, Guts, Gets, et cetera, Nordics, Indo-Europeans and Caucasians. The Gaels, Iberians and Scythians were descendants of these illustrious Megalithic ancestors. The primordial elders, the Druids, were members of the world’s forgotten Stellar, Solar and Lunar Cults. There was not a savant of antiquity who did not know of the existence and significance of the ancient Western elders. Let me quote this…a caste incorporating all the learned professions. The caste not only consisted of those who had a religious function but also comprised philosophers, judges, teachers, historians, poets, musicians, physicians, astronomers, prophets and political advisers or counsellors. The elder race excelled in practices such as geometry, astronomy and navigation, and also in astrology and geomancy. In European and Asian history the original Megalithic elders were known as Shemsu Hor, the Disciples of Horus, Phoenicians known as Arcadians, Sumerians, or Sum Ari, Chaldeans the Magi, Cabiri or Kab Ari and Amenists. The term ‘Celtic’ is not therefore really an accurate description either of the Megalithic Irish or of their European descendants. The Druids did not commit their teaching to writing, and consequently the whole of their sacred literature perished with the eventual extinction of their language. But their language has not vanished.” He winked. “After Christians had spent years destroying books and libraries, St John Chrysostom, the pre-eminent Greek Father of the Church, proudly declared, ‘Every trace of the old philosophy and literature of the ancient world has vanished from the face of the earth’.” Theodoric paused briefly to sip some water and moisten his dry lips. “The two invasions of Ireland by King Henry were bloody and ruthless culminating in the complete and utter dismantling of Tara to bare Earth and the final destruction of almost all remaining non-Christian Irish texts. None of the Celtic source literature is by Druids…In Ireland, the amount of poetic and druidic material in manuscripts…is substantial…the bulk of the source material is unpublished, and still un-translated, but not of the original Druids themselves. The earliest Christian missionaries found the native religion extinct, and they took the name of Culdees from inhabiting the Druids’ empty cells and in its simplest terms means that the ancient gods of the Greeks and Romans came from the Hyperboreans. And proof that a supremely educated elder race of adepts lived for extended periods of time in northern Europe and Asia is made evident from a study of astronomy. Astronomically, certain cycles of luminaries, planets, stars and constellations may only be observed and noted from specific locations on earth. These various sidereal cycles are of such immense duration that they simply cannot be reckoned by any tribe or nation not geographically stable for an extended period. In short, the exceptional class of men responsible for precise astronomical calculations, and resident at the requisite geographical location, were the Megalithic Irish and Nordic elders displaced to Europe and Asia from shattered Western habitats. They were the Hyperboreans, or as some like to call them, Atlanteans, and it was they and their descendants who were the world’s first master astronomers, astrologers, geomancers and cyclopean monument designers. They profess to have great knowledge of the motions of the heavens and the stars and I fear it will take many more years, perhaps hundreds again, for us to rediscover those truths. You and I know the world is a sphere, as do our Muslim friends, yet the Church doggedly stands by its interpretations that it is flat, so imagine trying to convince people that there are even greater revelations and mysteries? Yet the Papacy knows all of this already. How does one take on such a force?” Theodoric sighed and shook his head. Paul could sense his frustration.
“How indeed…surely there must be a way?” Paul asked.
“Trust me, we have tried. In the end, all we could do was try to disseminate that knowledge through poems, stories and set it all in solid stone, such as the cathedrals. And hopefully, one day we can prove that a great worldwide civilisation once possessed a profound wisdom of elevated genius and of an antiquity far superior even to the Egyptians or Indians, immediately after the Flood, and who initially inhabited the country to the north of what is now India and the British Isles. The megalithic yard will be but one of the keys that will show the way. It is much older…and was certainly in use in Britain as early as 3500 BC at which time the Mediterranean civilisations were still a full thousand years short of their ultimate emergence. Since there is little or no evidence of the existence of the megalithic system within central or southern Europe, the inference must surely be that the Mediterranean civilisations ultimately responded to ideas that had originated further west. Several thousand years ago, a highly civilised and cultured people lived happily and abundantly in a paradise near the northern regions. All the major religions on earth, of whatever nationality, state emphatically that they were the original five races of mankind. In Judaism and Christianity, we call this paradise Eden. The Hindus call it Uttara Kuru. The Tibetan Buddhists call it Khedar Khand, Country of God Shiva, and Shambala. It was also called Sivariya or Sibirya, Land of God Shiva, now called Siberia. The ancient Greek historians and myths referred to it as Hyperborea. The Chinese Taoists don’t call it by any specific name, but they do describe it as a type of paradise where men lived in complete harmony with nature. In Irish the word for ‘saint’, niamh, is akin to the word for ‘heavens’, neamh. But as for the parent or root language, note the word used is root, and ’tis why symbolism of trees and roots is in part used so extensively when describing family trees et cetera! I must simply point out that the eastward spread of the Arya, and of later Scythians, can be found from a study of words and place names they used. For a start, the word ‘dunum’, so often traceable in Gaelic place names in present day Dundalk, Dunrobin, and meaning fortress or castle, is another typically Celtic element in European place names. It occurred very frequently in France, such as Lug-dunum, which is Lyons, Viro-dunum, Verdun. It is also found in places such as, Minno-dunum for Moudon, Eburo-dunum for Yverdon, and in the Netherlands, where the famous city of
Leyden goes back to a Celtic Lug-dunum. In Britain the Celtic term was often changed by simple translation into castra spoken chester, thus Camulo-dunum became Colchester, Bran-dunum became Brancaster. You should pay attention to the connection with Colchester for its other origins also connect it to Colchis and the Golden Fleece symbolism… plus when the early Britons changed the T and D to be interchangeable, Camulod, as it became shortened, was just as easily pronounced Camulot… as in King Arthur’s court. Now in Spain and Portugal eight names terminating in dunum are mentioned by classical writers. In Germany the modern names Kempton, Karnberg, Liegnitz, go back respectively to the Celtic forms Cambo-dunum, Carro-aunum, Lugi-dunum, and we find a Singi-dunum, now Belgrade, in Servia, a Novi-dunum, now Isaktscha, in Roumania, a Carro-dunum in South Russia, near the Dniester, and another in Croatia, now Pitsmeza. Sego-dunum, now Rodez, in France, turns up also in Bavaria, and in England Sege-dunum, now Wallsend, in Northumberland, and the first term, sego, is traceable in Segorbe as in Sego-briga, in Spain. Briga is a Celtic word, the origin of the German burg, and equivalent in meaning to dunum…One more example is the word ‘magos’, a plain, which is very frequent as an element of Irish placenames, is found abundantly in France, and outside of France, in countries no longer Celtic, it appears in places like Uro-magus (modern Switzerland) now Promasens, in the Rhineland, Broco-magus, Brumath, in the Netherlands, as already noted, Nimègue, in Lombardy several times.”
