Buddha alludes to an interview with several former Buddhas. Sceptics question
his statement: ''• Only forty years ago you left your native town : how can you
claim to have seen all those saints of old ? " Buddha explains it by the pre-
existence of his soul.

Buddha walks on the River Ganges. He heals the sick by a mere touch of his hand
; and, according to Wassiljew, the Mayana-Sutra relates the miracle of the
loaves and fishes. Buddha repeatedly has a miraculous escape from the snares of
his adversaries. " But he, going through the midst of them, went his way."
Once, when riding on his horse, Kantaka, his path was strewn with flowers
thrown down by Devas. Buddha remains homeless and poor, and instructs his
disciples to travel without money, trusting to the aid of Providence. At one
time having no money to pay a boatman who refuses to carry him without pay,
Buddha floats through the air across the stream.

To convert certain sceptical villagers he showed them a man walking across a
deep and rapid river, without immersing his feet. A disciple had his feet
hacked off by an unjust king, and Buddha cured him. At his appearance the sick
were healed, the deaf cured, and the blind had their sight restored.

Even his disciples performed miracles. The brother of one of them being in
imminent danger of shipwreck, in a "black storm," the fact was made known to
the disciple by spirits, and he at once performed the miracle of transporting
himself to the deck of the ship, when immediately the black tempest ceased.
Several of Buddha's disciples received power to exorcise evil spirits. They
also had the gift of speaking in foreign tongues.

Some of the followers of Buddha being imprisoned by an unjust emperor, an
angel, or spirit, came and opened the prison-door, and liberated them.

It is related of one of his followers that his eye offended him, and that he
plucked it out and cast it away.

One day Buddha's disciple, Ananda, after a long walk in the country, meets with
a woman of the low caste of the Kandalas, near a well, and asks her for some
water. She tells him what she is, and that she must not come near him. He
replies, *' My sister, I ask not for thy caste or thy family ; I ask only for a
draught of water." She afterwards becomes a disciple of Buddha.

It is said that towards the end of his life Buddha was transfigured on Mount
Pandava, in Ceylon. Suddenly a flame of light descended upon him, and encircled
the crown of his head with a circle of light. His body became "glorious as a
bright, golden image," and shone as the brightness of the Sun and moon. " His
body was divided into three parts, from each of which a ray of light issued
forth."

It is recorded, in the sacred canon of the Buddhists, that the multitude
required a sign from Buddha, that they might believe. Buddha delighted in
representing himself as merely a link in a long chain of teachers.

He taught his disciples to hide their good deeds, and confess their sins before
the world,  to love truth and hate the lie. He also taught that all men are
brothers, that charity should be extended to all, even to enemies, and that the
motive of all actions should be pity or love for one's neighbor. His dis
ciples were told that they must renounce the world, give up all their riches,
and embrace poverty.

In the Buddhist Somadeva is the following: "To give away our riches is
considered the most difficult virtue in the world ; he who gives away his
riches is like a man who gives away his life ; for our very life seems to cling
to our riches. But Buddha, when his mind was moved by pity, gave his life like
grass, for the sake of others."

Buddha is reported to have said : " I now desire to turn the wheel of the
excellent law. For this purpose am I going to the city of Benares, to give
light to those shrouded in darkness, and to open the gates of immortality to
man."

When his career on earth was about coming to a close, he, " foreseeing the
things that would happen in future times," said to his disciple Ananda : " When
I am gone, you must not think there is no Buddha ; the discourses I have
delivered, and the precepts I have enjoined, must be my successors, or
representatives, and be to you as Buddha."

Again he said : " Though the heavens were to fall to earth, and the great world
be swallowed up and pass away ; though Mount Sumera were to crack to pieces,
and the great ocean be dried up, yet, Ananda, be assured the words of Buddha
are true."

At the death of Buddha, the earth trembled, the rocks were split and phantoms
and spirits appeared. He descended to hell and preached to the spirits of the
damned.

When Buddha was buried, tne coverings of the body unrolled themselves, the lid
of his coffin was opened by supernatural powers, and he ascended bodily to the
celestial regions. Marks on the rocks of a high mountain are shown, which are
believed to be the last imprint of his footsteps in this world.

He was called the Lion of the Tribe of Sakya, the King of Righteousness, the
Great Physician, the God among Gods, the Only Begotten, the Word, the All-wise,
the Way, the Truth, the Life, the Intercessor, the Prince of Peace, the Good
Shepherd, the Light of the World, the Anointed, the Christ, the Messiah, the
Saviour of the World, the Way of Life and Immortality. Indeed in Ceylon the
name of Buddha has twelve thousand synonyms.

When the time came for him to depart, he told his disciples to no longer remain
together, but to go out in companies, and proclaim the doctrines he had taught
them,  to found schools and monasteries, build temples, and perform acts of
charity,  that they might obtain merit, and gain access to the blessed abode
of Nigban, which he told them he was about to enter.

The ever-faithful women were to be found at the last scene in the life of
Buddha. At his death one of his disciples found the master's feet soiled and
wet, and, asking the cause of it, was told that a weeping woman had embraced
Gautama's feet shortly before his death, and that her tears had fallen on his
feet and left the marks there.

After his death Buddha was exalted to the rank of deity. He was made equal to
Brahma ; Demons were powerless against his word ; angels and arhats ministered
unto him.

Buddha taught the efficacy of vicarious atonement ; a hell of fire and
ceaseless torment ; the existence of a prodigious number of malevolent demons ;
the virtue of celibacy; the merit of seclusion and a retired life; the
rejection of ancient rites and ceremonies ; the utility of self-sacrifice ;
the vanity of earthly joys ; the demerit of wealth ; the depreciation of
industry and the pursuit of worldly advantages ; the merit of mendicancy ;
the merit of abandoning wife and children ; love of enemies ; patience,
submission, and self-denial ; submission to injustice and tyranny ; the
sinfulness of scepticism ; auricular confession of sin, and the worship of
saints.

Buddha's mercy is compared to a rain-cloud, which showers blessings upon the
just and unjust. Earthly joys are compared to the grass which blooms to-day,
and to-morrow is cast into the fire.

True believers are advised to gather treasures which neither thieves can steal
nor fire and water can spoil. Ignorant teachers are likened to the blind
leading the blind. The repentant sinner is described in a parable of a
prodigal son, who wastes his substance in foreign countries, but at last
returns to the house of his father, where, after serving as a common day-
laborer, the son is pardoned, and becomes his father's chief heir.

The new religion spread extensively all over the vast continent of Hindostan;
and finally, about three hundred years after Buddha's death, found an
enthusiastic and powerful convert in the person of a king called Asoka. This
ruler was imbued with a missionary spirit, and under his influence some eighty
thousand missionaries went throughout India, and into China, Japan, Ceylon,
Persia, Babylonia, Syria, Palestine, Egypt,  to that very populous and
important emporium, Alexandria. Indeed, they seem to have gone into every
country to which ships, caravans, and the flow of commerce gave them access.

Buddha's representative on earth is the Grand Lama, the high-priest of the
Tartars, who is regarded as the vicegerent of God. The Tartars have
oecumenical councils, monasteries, nunneries, the division of temples into a
nave and transept, pulpits, dalmaticas, bell-ringing, incense, the censor
suspended from five chains, chalices, chaplets, rosaries, chanted services,
litanies, aspersions with consecrated water, priests with shaven polls and bare
heads, confession of sins, prayers for the sick, extreme unction, masses and
sacrifices for the dead, worship of relics, weekly and yearly fasts, feast of
the Immaculate Conception, Candlemas, Baptism, the Eucharist, worship of one
God in Trinity and a belief in Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory.

Buddhism is supposed to have been more extensively adopted than any other
religion. For nearly two thousand four hundred years it has been the
established religion of Burmah, Siam, Laos, Cambodia, Thibet, Japan, Tartary,
Ceylon, Loo-Choo, and many neighboring islands, besides about twothirds of
China and a large portion of Siberia ; and at the present day no inconsiderable
number of the peasantry of Lapland are to be found among its adherents.

Its votaries are computed at four-hundred-millions, more than one-third of
the entire population of the world, while Hindooism and Buddhism together
have become the faiths of more than onehalf the human race, and have spread
Aryan theology and culture throughout Asia, to the utmost limits of China and
Japan.

The Aryan sun-myths, as has been mentioned, went with the Aryans when they
peopled Persia, and became the religion of the ancient Parsees. Mithras was the
name which the Persians gave to the Sun. After ages had passed, it was utterly
forgotten that Mithras was the Sun, and it was believed that he was the. Only
Begotten Son of God, who had come down from Heaven to be a mediator between God
and man, to save men from their sins. The twenty-fifth of December was said to
be the day on which this God-man was born, and it was celebrated with great
rejoicings. The legend was that the wondrous infant was visited soon after his
miraculous birth, by wise men called magi, who brought gifts of gold,
frankincense, and myrrh. It was customary for the magi to ascend a high
mountain, at early dawn on the twenty-fifth of December, and there, with their
faces turned to the east, to wait anxiously for the first rays of the Sun,
which they hailed with incense and prayer. The shepherds, also, were in the
habit of prostrating themselves and praying to their god, the Sun. (See Note
4.)

Mithras was said to be the Logos, also the Anointed, or the Christ, and was
called the Lamb of God. His worshippers addressed him in their litany,
constantly repeating the words : O Lamb of God! that taketh away the sins of
the world, have mercy upon us. Grant us thy peace. It was believed by the
inhabitants of Persia, Asia Minor, and Armenia that Mithras had been put to
death, been three days in Hell, and had risen again from the dead. In their
mysteries was exhibited the body of a young man, apparently dead, who was pres
ently restored to life. His disciples watched his sepulchre till midnight, on
the twenty-fourth of March, with wailings and in darkness, when suddenly the
place would be brilliantly illuminated, and the priest would cry : Rejoice, O
sacred Initiated; your God is risen. His death, his pains, his sufferings,
have worked our salvation. Mithras's symbol was a serpent.

The Mithrians had their mysterious meetings, their chapels, and their ceremony
of initiation, which included Baptism and the Eucharist. The forehead of the
initiate was marked, at the time of baptism, with the sign of the cross.
Infants also were baptized,  for the purification of the soul, sin having been
inherited,  a name being given to the child at that time. The ancient Persians
believed that they were tainted with original sin, owing to the fall of their
first parents, who were tempted by the Evil One, in the form of a serpent.
Indeed, their legends of the Creation  of Heden.^ the original abode of man
 and the River of Life, are almost identical with the account of the Creation
and Garden of Eden, contained in Genesis. They had a legend of a Deluge, and
also a legend that is similar to the Hebrew story of Jonah. (See Appendix D.)

(ARYAN) SUN-MYTHS

THE

ORIGIN OF  (PATRIARCHIAL AND ABRAHAMIC!) RELIGIONS



1889


WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY

CHARLES MORRIS  and also Patriarchy brought by the
ARYANS



The results obtained from the examination of language in its several forms
leaves no room for doubt, Max Miiller tells us, that there was a stage, in the
history of human speech, during which the abstract words in constant use
among ourselves were utterly unknown, when men had formed no notions of virtue
or prudence, of thought and intellect, of slavery or freedom, but spoke only of
the man who was strong, who could point the way to others and choose one thing
out of many, of the man who was not bound to any other, and able to do as he
pleased.

Language without words denoting abstract qualities implies a condition of
thought in which men were only awakening to a sense of the objects which
surrounded them, and points to a time when the world was to them full of
strange sights and sounds,  some beautiful, some bewildering, some terrific;
when, in short, people knew little of themselves beyond the vague
consciousness of existence, and nothing of the phenomena of the world without.

In such a state they could but attribute to all that they saw or touched or
heard, a life which was Hke their own in its consciousness, its joys, and its
sufferings. The varying phases of that Hfe were therefore described as
truthfully as human feelings or sufferings, and hence every phase became a pict-
ure, which remained intelligible as long as the conditions remained
unchanged. In time, however, the conditions were changed. Men advanced in knowl-
edge and civilization, and no longer thought of nature as possessing life and
consciousness like their own.

In ancient times there lived, it is supposed on the highest elevation of
Central Asia, a noble race of men, called the Aryan. Speaking a language not
yet Sanskrit, Greek, or German, but containing the dialects of all, this clan
which had advanced to a state of agricultural civilization had recognized the
bonds of blood, and sanctioned the bonds of marriage. That they worshipped
Nature,  the sun, moon, sky, earth,  a comparison of ancient religions and
mythology in the lands peopled by Aryans^ demonstrates. Their chief object of
adoration was the Sun. To this race, in the infancy of its civilization, the
Sun was not a mere luminary, but a Creator, Ruler, Preserver, and Saviour of
the world.

As there could be no life or vegetation without light, the Sun, as a light-
bringer, becomes Creator, and if Creator, then Ruler of the world  the Father
of all things. In driving away the darkness, and likewise in fertilizing the
earth, the Sun becomes the preserver and kind protector of all living things
the Saviour of mankind. As the Sun sometimes scorches and withers vegetation
and dries up the rivers, he was conceived of as a Destroyer also. As Creator,
Preserver, and Destroyer the Sun was three persons in one  the Trinity.

It is very hard for man at the present day to realize the feelings with which
the first dwellers on earth looked upon the Sun. " Think of man," says
Professor Miiller, "at the dawn of time. . . . Was not the sunrise to him the
first wonder, the first beginning to him of all reflection, all thought, all
philosophy ? Was it not to him the first revelation, the first beginning of
all trust, of all religion ? "

The Aryans looked up to the sky and gave it the name of Dyaus, from a root-word
which means to shine; When, out of the forces and forms of nature, they
fashioned other gods, this name of Dyaus became Dyaus Pitar,  the Heaven-
Father, or AllFather. The earth they worshipped as the Mother of All.

They said that the Sun was the Son of the Sky, or the Heaven-Father, and that
the immaculate virgin, the Earth (sometimes it was the dawn or the night), was
the Mother of the Sun. Hence we have the Virgin, or Virgo, as one of the signs
of the zodiac.

As the Sun begins its apparent annual northward journey on the twenty-fifth of
December, this day was said to be his birthday, and was observed with great
rejoicings. On this day the sign of the Virgin is rising on the eastern
horizon, the Sun having reached the winter solstice.

The division of the first decan of the Virgin represents a beautiful
immaculate virgin with flowing hair, sitting in a chair, with two ears of corn
in her hand, and suckling an infant called lesus (Jesus in Latin), by some
nations, and Christ in Greek (from the Greek Christos,  an Anointed One, a
Messiah). This infant denotes the Sun, which at the moment of the winter
solstice, precisely when the Persian magi drew the horoscope of the new year,
was placed on the bosom of the Virgin. (See Appendix A.)

The zodiacal sign of Aries was anciendy known as the Lamb; consequently, when
the Sun made the transit of the equinox under this sign, it was called the Lamb
of God.

The birth of the Sun was said to be heralded by a star  the Morning-star,
which rises immediately before the Virgin and her Child. As the Sun appears to
start from a dark abode, it was said that he was born in a cave, or dungeon,
and the splendor of the morning sky was said to be the halo around his
cradle. As the Sun scatters the darkness, it was said that he would be the
destroyer of the reigning monarch, Night. Warned of this peril by oracles,
Night tries to prevent the birth of the Sun, and, failing in that, seeks to
take his life. For this reason it is said that the Sun is left on the bare
hillside to perish, as he seemingly rests on the earth at his rising. He meets
with temptations on his course, is beset by foes, clouds of storm and dark
ness; but, in the struggle which ensues, he is conqueror, the gloomy army,
broken and rent, is scattered. The daughters of his foes, the last light
vapors which float in the heavens, try in vain to clasp and retain him, but he
disengages himself from their embraces ; and, as he repulses them, they writhe,
lose their form and vanish. Temptations to sloth and luxury are offered him in
vain ; he has work to do, and nothing can stay him from doing it. He travels
over many lands, and toils for the benefit of others ; he does hard service for
a mean and cruel generation. He is constantly in company with his Twelve
Apostles  the twelve signs of the zodiac.

As he approaches midsummer, he appears in all his splendor, he has reached the
summit of his career ; henceforth his power diminishes, and he meets with an
early and a violent death, from which there is no escape. When the extreme
southern limit of his course is reached, his enemies  darkness and cold,
which have sought in vain to wound him  win the victory. The bright Sun of
summer is slain, crucified in the heavens, and pierced by the spear (thorn, or
arrow) of winter. He who has performed such marvellous miracles, healing the
sick and raising the dead, cannot save himself; a stern fate decrees that he
must die an ignominious death.

As the Sun wakens the earth to life after the long sleep of winter is passed,
it was said that he raised the dead. He is crucified, with outstretched arms in
the heavens,  outstretched to bless the world he is trying to save from the
terror of darkness,  to the tree, or cross. It was an ancient custom to use
trees as gibbets for crucifixion, or, if artificial, to call the cross a tree,
the tree being one of the symbols of nature-worship, which denoted the
fructifying power of the Sun. The Sun crucified was the Sun in winter, when
his fructifying power is gone.

Before the Sun dies he sees all his disciples  his retinue of light, the
twelve hours of the day or the twelve months of the year  disappear in the
sanguinary ;«^/^^ of the clouds of evening; but the tender mother and the fair
maidens he has loved  the beautiful lights which flush the eastern sky as the
Sun sinks in the west  remain with him till the last. Their tears are the
tears of dew. At his death there is darkness over all the land. He descends
into Hell, or Hades. In ancient times Hell, or Hades, was a place neither of
reward nor punishment, but was simply the home of the dead, good and bad alike,
the word primarily signifying nothing more than the hollow grave, hole, pit,
cavern, or other receptacle which receives the dead. By the Aryans, Hades was
supposed to be in the far west, which to them was always the region of dark
ness and death, as the east was of light and life. On the twenty-second of
December the Sun enters the sign Capricornus, or the Goat, and appears to
remain in the same place for three days and three nights, and then begins to
ascend. This was said to be the resurrection of the Sun from Hades or the
grave. At the vernal equinox, at Easter, the Sun has been below the equator and
suddenly rises above it. It rises triumphant over the powers of darkness and
cold. The resurrection of the Sun was generally celebrated on the twenty-fifth
of March, when the return of spring may be said to be the result of the return
of the Sun, from the lower or far-off regions to which it had departed.

There were numerous symbols which were held as sacred to the Sun, the most
common being the fish, the lamb, the cross, and the serpent. The Serpent was
an emblem of the Sun, when represented with his tail in his mouth, thus forming
a circle. He was an emblem of eternity, when represented as casting off his
skin ; but when represented with his deadly sting, he was an emblem of evil.
When represented as crucified on the tree (cross), the Serpent denoted the
Sun in winter, when it has lost its fructifying power.

The Aryans observed various rites and ceremonies, among them being Baptism and
the sacrament of the Eucharist. Indeed, the doctrine of Transubstantiation is
one of the most ancient of doctrines. Baptism was held to be a regenerating
rite ; and rivers, as sources of fertility and purification, were at an early
date invested with a sacred character. Every great river was supposed to be
permeated with the divine essence, and its waters held to cleanse from moral
guilt and contamination.

The doctrines of Original Sin and the Fallen Condition of Man were not unknown
to the primitive Aryan, who, in order to propitiate his gods, atone for sins,
or avert calamities, offered sacrifices to them. When men lived mostly on
vegetables, they offered grain, salt, fruits, water, and flowers ; but when
they began to eat meat and spices, and drink wine, they offered these also, 
naturally supposing that the gods would be pleased with whatever was useful
or agreeable to men.

In the course of time it began to be imagined that the gods demanded something
more sacred as offerings, or atonements, for sin. This led to the sacrifice of
human beings, at first of slaves and those taken in war, and finally of their
own children, even their most beloved and first-born. It came to be an idea
that every sin must have its prescribed amount of punishment, and that the gods
would accept the life of one person in atonement for the sins of others. From
this arose a belief in the redemption from sin by the sufferings of a Divine
Incarnation, by death on the cross, or otherwise.

Branches of the Aryan race migrated to the east and to the west. One of the
offshoots, at the west, founded the Persian kingdom; another built Athens and
Lacedasmon, and became the Greek nation ; a third went on to Italy, and reared
the city on the seven hills, which grew into imperial Rome. A distant colony
of the same race excavated the silver mines of prehistoric Spain ; and the
first glimpse at ancient England reveals Aryan descendants fishing in willow
canoes. Germany also was peopled by the Aryans. Meanwhile other bands of Aryans
had gone forth, from the primitive home in Central Asia, to the seacoast.
Powerful bands found their way through the passes of the Himalayas into the
Punjab, and spread themselves, chiefly as Brahmans and Rajputs, over India.

Wherever the Aryans went, the sun-myths went with them, and appeared in the
course of time, after their origin was forgotten, as the groundwork of
religions, epic poems, folk-lore, and nursery tales. Out of these myths were
shaped by degrees innumerable gods and demons of the Hindoos ; the devs and
jins of the Persians ; the great gods, the minor deities, the nymphs and fauns
and satyrs, of Greek mythology and poetry ; the stormy divinities, the giants
and trolls, of the cold and rugged north ; the dwarfs of German forests ; the
elves who dance merrily in the moonlight of an English summer ; the " good peo
ple " who play mischievous tricks upon stray peasants among the Irish hills;
fairies and gods and heroes.

Transcript


This is the sun. As far back as 10 thousand B.C.E., history is abundant with carvings [M] and writings reflecting people's respect and adoration for this object [S1]. And it is simple to understand why as every morning the sun would rise, bringing vision, warmth, and security, saving man from the cold, blind, predator-filled darkness of night. Without it, the cultures understood, the crops would not grow, and life on the planet would not survive. These realities made the sun the most adored object of all time.[M] Likewise, they were also very aware of the stars.[M] The tracking of the stars allowed them to recognize and anticipate events which occurred over long periods of time, such as eclipses and full moons.[M] They in turn catalogued celestial groups into what we know today as constellations.[S2]

This is the cross of the Zodiac, one of the oldest conceptual images in human history. [M] It reflects the sun as it figuratively passes through the 12 major constellations over the course of a year. It also reflects the 12 months of the year, the 4 seasons, and the solstices and equinoxes [S3] . The term Zodiac relates to the fact that constellations were anthropomorphized, or personified, as figures, or animals.[S4] [M]

In other words, the early civilizations did not just follow the sun and stars, they personified them with elaborate myths involving their movements and relationships. [S5] [M] The sun, with its life-giving and -saving qualities was personified as a representative of the unseen creator or god...[M]"God's Sun,"[M] the light of the world, the savior of human kind.[S6] Likewise, the 12 constellations represented places of travel for God's Sun and were identified by names, usually representing elements of nature that happened during that period of time. For example, Aquarius, the water bearer, who brings the Spring rains.[S7] [M] [D]

This is Horus.[M] He is the Sun God of Egypt of around 3000 BC [S8] [D]. He is the sun, anthropomorphized, and his life is a series of allegorical myths involving the sun's movement in the sky. [S9] [S10] [M] From the ancient hieroglyphics in Egypt, we know much about this solar messiah. For instance, Horus, being the sun, or the light, had an enemy known as Set and Set [D] was the personification of the darkness or night .[M] [S11] And, metaphorically speaking, every morning Horus would win the battle against Set - while in the evening, Set would conquer Horus and send him into the underworld. [S12] [S13] It is important to note that "dark vs. light" or "good vs. evil" is one of the most ubiquitous mythological dualities ever known and is still expressed on many levels to this day.

Broadly speaking, the story of Horus is as follows: Horus was born on December 25th [S14] [S15] of the virgin Isis-Meri.[S16] [S17] [S18] [D] [M] His birth was accompanied by a star in the east [S19], which in turn, three kings followed to locate and adorn the new-born savior [M] [S20] [S21] At the age of 12, he was a prodigal child teacher, and at the age of 30 [S22] [S23] he was baptized by a figure known as Anup [M] and thus began his ministry[S24] [M]. Horus had 12 disciples[S25] he traveled about with, performing miracles[S26] [S27]such as healing the sick[S28] and walking on water[S29]. Horus was known by many gestural names such as The Truth, The Light, God's Annointed Son, The Good Shepherd, The Lamb of God, and many others[S30] [S31]. After being betrayed by Typhon[S32], Horus was crucified[S33] [S34], buried for 3 days[S35], and thus, resurrected.[S36] [S37] [M].

These attributes of Horus, whether original or not, seem to permeate in many cultures of the world, for many other gods are found to have the same general mythological structure.

Attis, of Phyrigia, born of the virgin Nana on December 25th, crucified, placed in a tomb and after 3 days, was resurrected.
[S38] [S39] [S40] [S41] [S42] [S43] [M] [D]

Krishna, of India, born of the virgin Devaki with a star in the east signaling his coming, performed miracles with his disciples, and upon his death was resurrected.
[S44] [S45] [S46] [S47] [S48] [M] [M2] [D]

Dionysus of Greece, born of a virgin on December 25th, was a traveling teacher who performed miracles such as turning water into wine, he was referred to as the "King of Kings," "God's Only Begotten Son," "The Alpha and Omega," and many others, and upon his death, he was resurrected.
[S49] [S50] [S51] [S52] [S53] [M]

Mithra, of Persia, born of a virgin on December 25th, he had 12 disciples and performed miracles, and upon his death was buried for 3 days and thus resurrected, he was also referred to as "The Truth," "The Light," and many others. Interestingly, the sacred day of worship of Mithra was Sunday.
[S54] [S55] [S56] [S57] [S58] [M]

The fact of the matter is there are numerous saviors, from different periods, from all over the world, which subscribe to these general characteristics. The question remains: why these attributes, why the virgin birth on December 25th, why dead for three days and the inevitable resurrection, why 12 disciples or followers? [M] To find out, let's examine the most recent of the solar messiahs.

Jesus Christ was born of the virgin Mary on December 25th [D] in Bethlehem, his birth was announced by a star in the east, which three kings or magi followed to locate and adorn the new savior.[D] He was a child teacher at 12, at the age of 30 he was baptized by John the Baptist, and thus began his ministry. Jesus had 12 disciples which he traveled about with performing miracles such as healing the sick, walking on water, raising the dead, he was also known as the "King of Kings," the "Son of God," the "Light of the World," the "Alpha and Omega," the "Lamb of God," and many others. After being betrayed by his disciple Judas and sold for 30 pieces of silver, he was crucified, placed in a tomb and after 3 days was resurrected and ascended into Heaven.[S59]

First of all, the birth sequence is completely astrological. The star in the east is Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, which, on December 24th, aligns with the 3 brightest stars in Orion's Belt. [S60] [M] These 3 bright stars are called today what they were called in ancient times: The Three Kings.[S61] [S62] The Three Kings and the brightest star, Sirius, all point to the place of the sunrise on December 25th.[S63] [M] This is why the Three Kings "follow" the star in the east, in order to locate the sunrise -- the birth of the sun.[S64] [M]

The Virgin Mary is the constellation Virgo, [S65] also known as Virgo the Virgin. Virgo in Latin means virgin. The ancient glyph for Virgo is the altered "m". This is why Mary along with other virgin mothers, such as Adonis's mother Myrrha [S66], or Buddha's mother Maya [S67] begin with an M.[S68] [M] Virgo is also referred to as the House of Bread [S69] [S70], and the representation of Virgo is a virgin holding a sheaf of wheat. This House of Bread and its symbol of wheat represents August and September, the time of harvest. [D] In turn, Bethlehem, in fact, literally translates to "house of bread". [M] [S71] Bethlehem is thus a reference to the constellation Virgo , a place in the sky, not on Earth.[M] [S72]

There is another very interesting phenomenon that occurs around December 25th, or the winter solstice. From the summer solstice to the winter solstice, the days become shorter and colder. From the perspective of the northern hemisphere, the sun appears to move south and get smaller and more scarce. The shortening of the days and the expiration of the crops when approaching the winter solstice symbolized the process of death to the ancients. It was the death of the Sun. [S73] By December 22nd, the Sun's demise was fully realized, for the Sun, having moved south continually for 6 months, makes it to it's lowest point in the sky. Here a curious thing occurs: the Sun stops moving south, at least perceivably, for 3 days.[S74] [M] During this 3 day pause, the Sun resides in the vicinity of the Southern Cross, or Crux, constellation.[S75] [S76] [M] And after this time on December 25th, the Sun moves 1 degree, this time north, foreshadowing longer days, warmth, and Spring.[S77] And thus it was said: the Sun died on the cross, [D] was dead for 3 days, only to be resurrected or born again.[S78] [S79]This is why Jesus and numerous other Sun Gods share the crucifixion, 3-day death, and resurrection concept. [S80] [M] It is the Sun's transition period before it shifts its direction back into the Northern Hemisphere, bringing Spring, and thus salvation.[S81] [S82] [M]

However, they did not celebrate the resurrection of the Sun until the spring equinox, or Easter. This is because at the spring equinox, the Sun officially overpowers the evil darkness, as daytime thereafter becomes longer in duration than night, and the revitalizing conditions of spring emerge.[M] [S83]

Now, probably the most obvious of all the astrological symbolism around Jesus regards the 12 disciples. They are simply the 12 constellations of the Zodiac, which Jesus, being the Sun, travels about with. [S84] [S85] [S86] [S87] [M]

In fact, the number 12 is replete throughout the Bible. [M] This text has more to do with astrology than anything else.

Coming back to the cross of the Zodiac, the figurative life of the Sun, this was not just an artistic expression or tool to track the Sun's movements. It was also a Pagan spiritual symbol, [S88] the shorthand of which looked like this. [S89] This is not a symbol of Christianity. [M] It is a Pagan adaptation of the cross of the Zodiac. [S90] [S91] This is why Jesus in early occult art is always shown with his head on the cross, for Jesus is the Sun, the Sun of God, the Light of the World, [S92] the Risen Savior, [S93] who will "come again,"[S94] as it does every morning, the Glory of God [S95] who defends against the works of darkness,[S96] as he is "born again" [S97] every morning, and can be seen "coming in the clouds,"[S98] "up in Heaven,"[S99]with his "Crown of Thorns,"[S100] or, sun rays.

Now, of the many astrological-astronomical metaphors in the Bible, one of the most important has to do with the ages. Throughout the scripture there are numerous references to the "Age." In order to understand this, we need to be familiar with the phenomenon known as the precession of the equinoxes. The ancient Egyptians along with cultures long before them recognized that approximately every 2150 [D] years the sunrise on the morning of the spring equinox would occur at a different sign of the Zodiac. [M] This has to do with a slow angular wobble that the Earth maintains as it rotates on it's axis.It is called a precession because the constellations go backwards, rather than through the normal yearly cycle. [S101] The amount of time that it takes for the precession to go through all 12 signs is roughly 25,765 years. [S102] This is also called the "Great Year," [S103] and ancient societies were very aware of this. They referred to each 2150 year period as an "age." From 4300 b.c. to 2150 b.c., it was the Age of Taurus, the Bull. From 2150 b.c. to 1 a.d., it was the Age of Aries, the Ram, and from 1 a.d. to 2150 a.d. it is the Age of Pisces, the age we are still in to this day, and in and around 2150, we will enter the new age: the Age of Aquarius. [S104] [S105]

Now, the Bible reflects, broadly speaking, a symbolic movement through 3 ages, while foreshadowing a 4th. In the Old Testament when Moses comes down Mount Sinai with the 10 Commandments, he is very upset to see his people worshiping a golden bull calf.[S106] In fact, he shattered the stone tablets and instructed his people to kill each other in order to purify themselves. [S107] Most Biblical scholars would attribute this anger to the fact that the Israelites were worshiping a false idol, [S108] or something to that effect. The reality is that the golden bull is Taurus the Bull, and Moses represents the new Age of Aries the Ram. [S109] [M] This is why Jews even today still blow the Ram's horn. [S110] [M] Moses represents the new Age of Aries, [S111] and upon the new age, everyone must shed the old age. Other deities mark these transitions as well, a pre-Christian god who kills the bull, in the same symbology. [S112] [S113] [M]

Now Jesus is the figure who ushers in the age following Aries, the Age of Pisces the Two Fish.[S114] [S115] [M] Fish symbolism is very abundant in the New Testament. Jesus feeds 5000 people with bread and "2 fish." [S116] When he begins his ministry walking along Galilei, he befriends 2 fisherman, who follow him. [S117] [M] And I think we've all seen the Jesus-fish on the backs of people's cars. Little do they know what it actually means. It is a Pagan astrological symbolism for the Sun's Kingdom during the Age of Pisces.[S118] [M] Also, Jesus' assumed birth date is essentially the start of this age.

At Luke 22:10 when Jesus is asked by his disciples where the next passover will be, Jesus replied: "Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you bearing a pitcher of water... follow him into the house where he entereth in." This scripture is by far one of the most revealing of all the astrological references. The man bearing a pitcher of water is Aquarius, the water-bearer, who is always pictured as a man pouring out a pitcher of water. [S119] He represents the age after Pisces, and when the Sun (God's Sun) leaves the Age of Pisces (Jesus), it will go into the House of Aquarius, as Aquarius follows Pisces in the precession of the equinoxes. Also Jesus is saying is that after the Age of Pisces will come the Age of Aquarius. [S120] [M]

Now, we have all heard about the end times and the end of the world. Apart from the cartoonish depictions in the Book of Revelation, the main source of this idea comes from Matthew 28:20, where Jesus says "I will be with you even to the end of the world." [S121] However, in King James Version, "world" is a mistranslation, among many mistranslations. The actual word being used is "aeon", which means "age." "I will be with you even to the end of the age." Which is true, as Jesus' Solar Piscean personification will end when the Sun enters the Age of Aquarius. [S122] The entire concept of end times and the end of the world is a misinterpreted astrological allegory.[S123] [S124] [S125] [S126] [S127] [M] Let's tell that to the approximately 100 million people in America who believe the end of the world is coming.

Furthermore, the character of Jesus, a literary and astrological hybrid, is most explicitly a plagiarization of the Egyptian Sun-god Horus.[S128] [S129] [S130] [S131]For example, inscribed about 3500 years, on the walls of the Temple of Luxor in Egypt are images of the enunciation, the immaculate conception, the birth, and the adoration of Horus. [S132] The images begin with Thaw announcing to the virgin Isis that she will conceive Horus, then Nef the holy ghost impregnating the virgin, and then the virgin birth and the adoration.[S133] [S134] [M] This is exactly the story of Jesus' miracle conception. In fact, the literary similarities between the Egyptian religion and the Christian religion are staggering. [M] [S135]

And the plagiarism is continuous. The story of Noah and Noah's Ark is taken directly from tradition. The concept of a Great Flood is ubiquitous throughout the ancient world, with over 200 different cited claims in different periods and times. [S136] [S137] [M] However, one need look no further for a pre-Christian source than the Epic of Gilgamesh,[S138] [S139] written in 2600 b.c. This story talks of a Great Flood commanded by God, an Ark with saved animals upon it, and even the release and return of a dove, all held in common with the biblical story, among many other similarities.[S140] [M]

And then there is the plagiarized story of Moses. Upon Moses' birth, it is said that he was placed in a reed basket and set adrift in a river in order to avoid infanticide. He was later rescued by a daughter of royalty and raised by her as a Prince.[S141] This baby in a basket story was lifted directly from the myth of Sargon of Akkad of around 2250 b.c. Sargon was born, placed in a reed basket in order to avoid infanticide, and set adrift in a river. He was in turn rescued and raised by Akki, a royal mid-wife.[S142] [S143] [M]

Furthermore, Moses is known as the Law Giver, the giver of the Ten Commandments,[S144] the Mosaic Law. However, the idea of a Law being passed from God to a prophet on a mountain is also a very old motif. Moses is just a law giver in a long line of law givers in mythological history. [S145] In India, Manou was the great law giver. [S146] In Crete, Minos ascended Mount Dicta, where Zeus gave him the sacred laws. [S147] While in Egypt there was Mises, [S148] who carried stone tablets and upon them the laws of god were written.

And as far as the Ten Commandments, they are taken outright from Spell 125 of the Egyptian Book of the Dead. [S149] What the Book of the Dead phrased "I have not stolen" became "Thou shall not steal," "I have not killed" became "Thou shall not kill," "I have not told lies" became "Thou shall not bear false witness" and so forth. [S150] In fact, the Egyptian religion is likely the primary foundational basis for the Judeo-Christian theology. [M] Baptism, [S151] afterlife,[S152] final judgment, [S153] virgin birth [S154] and resurrection, [S155] crucifixion, [S156] the ark of the covenant, [S157]circumcision, [S158] [S159] saviors,[S160] holy communion, [S161] the great flood, [S162] Easter, [S163] Christmas [S164] [S165] , Passover, [S166] and many many more, are all attributes of Egyptian ideas, long predating Christianity and Judaism.

Justin Martyr, one of the first Christian historians and defenders, wrote: "When we say that he, Jesus Christ, our teacher, was produced without sexual union, was crucified and died, and rose again, and ascended into Heaven, we propound nothing different from what you believe regarding those who you esteem Sons of Jupiter." [S167] In a different writing, Justin Martyr said "He was born of a virgin, accept this in common with what you believe of Perseus." [S168] It's obvious that Justin and other early Christians knew how similar Christianity was to the Pagan religions. However, Justin had a solution. As far as he was concerned, the Devil did it. The Devil had the foresight to come before Christ, and create these characteristics in the Pagan world. [S169]

The Bible is nothing more than an astro-theological literary fold hybrid, just like nearly all religious myths before it. [S170] [S171] [S172] [S173] [S174]In fact, the aspect of transference, of one character's attributes to a new character, can be found within the book itself. In the Old Testament there's the story of Joseph. Joseph was a prototype for Jesus. Joseph was born of a miracle birth, [S175] Jesus was born of a miracle birth. [S176] Joseph was of 12 brothers, [S177] Jesus had 12 disciples. [S178] Joseph was sold for 20 pieces of silver, [S179]Jesus was sold for 30 pieces of silver. [S180] Brother "Judah" suggests the sale of Joseph, [S181] disciple "Judas" suggests the sale of Jesus. [S182] Joseph began his work at the age of 30, [S183]Jesus began his work at the age of 30. [S184] The parallels go on and on.

Furthermore, is there any non-Biblical historical evidence of any person, living with the name Jesus, the Son of Mary, who traveled about with 12 followers, healing people and the like? There are numerous historians who lived in and around the Mediterranean either during or soon after the assumed life of Jesus.[S185] How many of these historians document this figure? Not one. [S186] However, to be fair, that doesn't mean defenders of the Historical Jesus haven't claimed the contrary. Four historians are typically referenced to justify Jesus's existence. Pliny the younger, Suetonius, Tacitus and the first three. [M] [S187] Each one of their entries consists of only a few sentences at best and only refer to the Christus or the Christ, which in fact is not name but a title. It means the "Anointed one" [S188] The fourth source is Josephus and this source has been proven to be a forgery for hundreds of years.[S189] Sadly, it is still cited as truth.

You would think that a guy who rose from the dead and ascended into Heaven for all eyes to see and performed the wealth of miracles acclaimed to him would have made it into the historical record. It didn't because once the evidence is weighed, there are very high odds that the figure known as Jesus, did not even exist.[S190] [S191] [S192] [S193]

The reality is, Jesus was the Solar Deity of the Gnostic Christian sect, [S194] [S195] [S196] and like all other Pagan gods, he was a mythical figure. It was the political establishment that sought to historize the Jesus figure for social control. By 325 a.d. in Rome, emperor Constantine convened the Council of Nicea. [S197] It was during this meeting that the politically motivated Christian Doctrines were established and thus began a long history of Christian bloodshed and spiritual fraud. And for the next 1600 years, the Vatican maintained a political stranglehold on all of Europe, leading to such joyous periods as the Dark Ages, along with enlightening events such as the Crusades, and the Inquisition.

Christianity, along with all other theistic belief systems, is the fraud of the age. It serves to detach the species from the natural world, and likewise, each other. It supports blind submission to authority. It reduces human responsibility to the effect that "God" controls everything, and in turn awful crimes can be justified in the name of Divine Pursuit. And most importantly, it empowers those who know the truth but use the myth to manipulate and control societies. The religious myth is the most powerful device ever created, and serves as the psychological soil upon which other myths can flourish
