Brahmanism and the Origin of Caste System in the Indus Valley

I submitted in my essay “The Ancient Connection between Brahmanism and Abramanism” that Brahmanism and Abramanism had the same origin, and that Brahma was the same mythical personage as Abraham, personifying the SUN. However, the thesis that the original Hindu/Brahmin-based caste system started when the nomadic Brahmin groups invaded India (i.e., Cusha Dwipa within, Indus Valley or Eastern Ethiopia), approximately five thousand years ago, might not be completely accurate. While it’s well-documented that the advent of Brahmanism or Hinduism coincided with the arrival of the nomadic Brahmin groups in India, the origin of the caste system in India remains an enigma.  

Be that as it may, having researched several studies on the origin of caste system in general, since castes exist in societies outside of India, I surmised with caution that the caste-system in India started before the Brahmin invasion, perhaps by the indigenous people themselves (i.e., the proto-inhabitants of the Indian sub-continent). I came into this conclusion when I realized that indigenous people, all over the world, practiced one form of caste system or the other. 

Looking at the caste systems that are practised around the world, I found out that some of these caste systems are religious based; some are occupational based, and others are ethnic based. For example, the Osu caste system practiced by the Igbo community and the Southern Cameroonians is religious based, while the Mande caste system practiced by the Senegambian societies is occupational based. My submission is that if the indigenous people in many societies around the world, outside of India, could conceive the caste system locally, independent of outsiders, then it’s not implausible that the proto-inhabitants of India could have started the caste system before the arrival of the nomadic Brahmins.

All in all, while it seems that the Caste system in India had local or indigenous origins. I’m inclined to say that this locally conceived system was later hijacked and corrupted into the Varna, Hindu-based hierarchical organization that is pervasive in rural India today.

The Ancient Connection between Brahmanism And Abramanism.

If Manetho did live as a historical figure and if he accurately depicted the historical struggle between the Hyksos and the Kemites; then, it's safe to conclude that the Hyksos were nomadic Brahmins who moved eastward into Harrapan and Mohanjedaro (South Asia), and Westward into Nubia and Kemet (Africa). My conclusion is premised on both facts and theories.

It's a fact that a group of nomadic Brahmins invaded and destroyed the Harrapan-Mohanjedaro civilization in the East. It's also a fact that a group of nomadic shepherds invaded Kemet, but were unsuccessful in usurping the Kemetic civilization in the West. Lastly, it's a fact that the word Palestine was derived from Pallisthan, Hindu word that means the seat of the Pallis or Shepherds. Palli, in Sanskrit, means Shepherds.

Although my submission above may state facts, but nothing of a historical kind must be believed without some collateral evidence. Let's see if I can find some collateral evidence in confirmation of my conclusion and facts in the following theories:

1. The first hypothesis is the Brahmin hypothesis, which is that a group of nomadic Brahmins, mostly Aryan, left their base in ancient India for Kemet, where they ruled provisionally for nearly two centuries. After which they were forcefully expelled into a neighboring land, now called Palestine.

2. The second hypothesis, which I call the Dravidian hypothesis, does not deny the incursion of the Asiatics into kemet as implied in the Brahmin hypothesis; however, it denies that the invading Asiatics were Nomadic Brahmins. According to the Dravidian hypothesis, the Asiatic invaders of Kemet were a ground of Dravidian priests, mostly Africoid, who escaped the Brahmin onslaught on their land in Asia.

As Godfrey Higgins succinctly put it: in the most early history of mankind all nations endeavor to indulge a contemptible vanity, by tracing their origin to the most remote periods. And of this weakness they have all, in reality, been guilty (Anacalysis Vol. I). Well based in part on archeological records, of all these people, none can trace their origin farther than the Cushites or the Ethiopians.

Almost all the historians of antiquity (Strabo, Herodotus, Diodorus to name a few) attested to the fact that there were two Ethiopias in the Ancient times, one in the East (South Asia) and the other in the West (Africa). Based on this fact, I'm inclined to submit that the Cushite hegemony was the ancient order until the nomadic Brahmins invaded the Eastern Ethiopia, leading to the destruction of Harappan-Mohenjodaro civilization of the East and the development of the caste-based spiritual philosophy of Brahmanism.

I'm further inclined to submit that I agree to the Brahmin hypothesis above. That is, the Hyksos or the Asiatic invaders of Kemet were the same nomadic Brahmins who had earlier invaded and destroyed Kemetic sister's civilization to the East, Harappan-Mohenjodaro. However, unlike in the East, the Brahmin invasion of Kemet dented the Kemetic civilization but did not destroy it.  The Brahmins, having ruled Kemet for nearly two centuries, were forcefully expelled from Kemet into a neighboring barren land, which they named Palestine - the land of the shepherds.  Note that the Hyksos are generally referred as the shepherd kings.

And lastly, I further submit that it was in Palestine that the Brahmins/Hyksos/Shepherd kings developed their new spiritual philosophy called Abramanism, which is a continuation in part of Brahmanism - I've established in my previous writing that Brahma and Abraham are one and the same mythical personage. In other words, Brahmanism and Abramanism are one and the same.

Please do not confuse the Abrahamic triad (Christianity, Judaism and Islam) with Abramanism or ancient "Hebrewism." The former was formulated, in the middle Ages, based on the distorted information lifted from the latter. And be aware that the Egpto-Cushites were disparaged heavily in the scriptures plausibly because of the ancient feud between the Brahmin Nomads and the agrarian Egypto-Cushites of the West.

The story of the Cushites, Brahmins, Israelites, Elamites, Mohenjo-Darians, ancient Phoenicians, Sumerians, Chaldeans, and even ancient Persians is the story of the struggle between the Nomadic Aryan Brahmins and the Agrarian-aboriginal Cushites.

A Brief Inquiry Into The Sacred Relationship Between Solomon and Makeda.

An inquiry into the ancient names of the SUN revealed that the term "Sol-Om-On" is the name of the SUN in three ancient languages. In other words "Sol" "Om" and "On" all stand for the SUN. Sol = Sun in Latin. Om or Aum = Sun in Sanskrit. On or Ra = Sun in ancient Kemetic language. Thus, when combined became SOLOMON. The "Temple of Solomon" is the TEMPLE OF THE SUN; it has nothing to do with the pretended antiquity of Jerusalem.

Artistic portrayal of Makeda (Queen of Sheba)

So if we say "SOLOMON" stands for the SUN; then, it's not implausible that Makeda (I.e. Queen of Sheba or Saba) stands for Saitic Isis, the MOON. I'm beginning to suspect that the mythological relationship between Solomon and Makeda (the Queen of Sheba) is an allegory for the astrological relationship between the sun and the moon - the sun or Osir being the male principle, and the Moon or Isis being the female principle.

Pre-historic Journey of Anatomical Modern Man (AMM)

The research into the pre-historic journey of anatomical modern man (AMM) is still on going, but these are what we've uncovered so far: 

                                     1. The Khoisan people of South Africa appear to be the first AMM. 

Khoisan type in South Africa

2. The Khoisan interbred with the Bantu type, and their product moved Eastward and Westward.

3. Their Westward migration was towards the Adamawa Plateau in West Africa, where the Nok culture was developed (see Berom and Jarawa people).

4. Their Eastward migration was along the Nile; towards: Egypt, North East Africa (now Middle East), and Euro-Asia.

Jarawa type in Asia

The Jarawa people appear to be the first AMM in Asia. Their antecedents reached Asia about 60,000-65,000 years ago, where they occupied the Andaman Islands in the Gulf of Bengal between India and Indonesia. Many of them still dwell there today.

What are the evidentiary facts to support Jarawa peoples’ migration into Asia?

 1. DNA evidence: recent DNA studies have confirmed that the Jarawa and some other human groups in Asia Pacific had traces of DNA from individuals that migrated, tens of thousands of years ago, from sub-Saharan Africa to Europe and Asia. Their closest relatives have been confirmed, through DNA tests, to be the Khoisan people above.

 2. Linguistic Evidence: the linguistic evidence at this point is inconclusive for many of the Jarawa people in Asia today are isolated. However, it is important to note that not only do you find a group of Africoid people going by the name "Jarawa" in Asia, but you also find them going by the same name in sub-Saharan Africa. Interestingly, the Jarawa people in Asia today are mostly found in the Andaman Islands; where as, the Jarawa people in sub-Saharan Africa reside around the Adamawa Plateau - notice how similar the names are i.e. "Andaman" and "Adamawa." I don’t think this commonality of names is a coincidence.

3. Archeological Evidence: a key archeological evidence is the commonality of divination system in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia (more specifically, China). When I examined the origin of sub-Saharan African divination system (i.e. IFA), I found out that IFA was conceived locally by the Khoisan, or perhaps by the earliest Bantu hybrid type. It’s not implausible that it was these same people who later transferred the knowledge of IFA system to the Shang Dynasty (i.e. Shango in Yoruba) of China when they migrated into Asia thousands of years ago. This I consider as to be the reason why IFA divination system and Chinese I Ching hexagram system are one and the same. (Adapted from my essay "Hybridization and The Absorption of Hominids Into The Diverse Human Population).

Oware board-game

Another archeological evidence is the Oware ancient-board game (i.e., Ayo Opon, Mancala etc), which is very popular among the sub-Saharan Africans, but is also found and played under a different name in South Asia (i.e., Sungka); more specifically, in the Philippines. Archeologists believe that this board game was brought into the Philippines by the indigenous Aeta people of the land, who have been linked genetically to sub-Saharan Africa.

In conclusion, I maintain that the journey of the AMM was not that of evolution, but rather of mutation and hybridization. It was the Khoisan and the hybridized Bantu type that left their homeland in Africa for other continents, where they interbred or hybridized with Erectus to survive in hostile environments.

Sacrificial Twins in The Old Yoruba Kingdom - Myth or Reality?

I have noticed, very recently, a few revisionists online claiming that the sacrifice of twins was a common practice among the Yoruba people during the Old Kingdom. I have said it before, and I will say it again: Yoruba people never engaged in the practice of sacrificing twins. But whoever is claiming otherwise is grossly misinformed; because, such an individual knows nothing about the Yoruba metaphysical thought process. Let us look at the Yoruba metaphysical thought process to put this argument to rest once and for all.

According to the Yoruba metaphysical thought process, our world is a chaotic market place (Aye loja) – chaos theory, created on the binary fortune of good and the misfortune of evil (Tibi tire la da ile aye) – binary theory, where only good character (IWA PELE) brings you closer to good fortune. The Yoruba understand the principle of harmonious binary opposites, and they regard twins as the perfect harmonious duality in human form (i.e., perfect “two truths”). There is nothing superficial, and I repeat, there is nothing superficial about this philosophical concept. It was this neat philosophical concept that led to the development of IFA or I Ching, which later morphed into binary code theory.

The Yoruba people look upon twins with such high veneration, much so, that twins are regarded as pseudo-orisha, Neteru or god in the Yoruba pantheon (Orisa Ibeji). In fact, the thesis that the Efik of Calabar were twin’s killers should be met with the antithesis of the Yoruba godly view of the twins, which is that twins are semi-deity in the Yoruba pantheon (i.e. Orisa Ibeji) - I strongly question Mary Slessor's account of twin's sacrifice among the Efik group of Calabar; this, I call a "missionary propaganda campaign." Anyway, how could twins be sacrificial and idolized at the same time? The answer is that twins are highly venerated in the Yoruba culture; so much so, that animals are often sacrificed to welcome their birth - twins were never sacrificed.

In conclusion, every culture of the world that sacrificed twins in antiquity did it for the same reason that many other cultures venerated them. That is, twins were regarded as perfect “two truths”, and thus were seen as the perfect harmonious duality in human form (Gerald Massey, natural genesis) - harmonious duality, they all believed, permeated our reality.

The Tale of the Two Cusha Dwipas and Du Bois's Misconception

When we made a serious inquiry into the origin and history of ancient nations, we found out that there were two lands of Ethiopia in the ancient times. There was Ethiopia of the East, also known as Cusha Dwipa within (I.e., Indus Valley), and there was Ethiopia of the West, also known as Cusha Dwipa without (I.e. Nile Valley). It is not necessary to talk about the intimate cultural and spiritual relations that existed between the two lands in antiquity for those are already old and well-known (see my essay “The Similarities Between Eastern and Western Kush”); however, it is necessary to examine and talk about the supposed common origin of the inhabitants of the two lands (i.e. Cusha Dwipa within and Cusha Dwipa without). The big question is whether the Nile Valley Civilization borrowed from the Indus Valley Civilization or vice versa.

There are positive, not necessarily accurate or even convincing, historical records of ancient Africans (Cushites) from the Horn of Africa (i.e. Nile Valley) having come to the Indus Valley. In the Greek mythology, Bacchus (i.e. Dionysus), the Ethiopian god was said to have conquered and established a colony in India – Bacchus was an imaginary personage, whom many people in the esoteric circle believe personifies the sun; so, this idle story of Bacchus may not qualify as a positive historical record. According to the Puranas of the Indian Scriptures, the ancient rulers of the Cusha Dwipas were said to be men of Meru or Meroe – Meroe was the ancient name for Sudan. The Puranas account is obviously a more positive historical record.

Conversely, there are other historical records that show how the colonies of Indus Valley (i.e. India) passed to the Horn of Africa (i.e., Nile Valley). One in particular was the Puranas of the Indian scriptures which states that the ancient Indians ruled over the whole of Indus Valley before moving west to the Horn of Africa.  Some historians, ancient and modern, bought into this “out of India” hypothesis. They argued that the first waves of shepherds who migrated into the Nile Valley region were ancient Indians. In his book “Anacalypsis,” Godfrey Higgins alluded to the fact that the original Phoenicians were Africoid people who left their native country in the Indus Valley to settle near the Assyrian Lake, and the extensive district between the Tigris and Euphrates, now called Palestine. The word “Palestine,” he opined, was derived from Pallisthan, an Indian word that means the seat of the Pallis or Shepherds – Palli, in Indian, means Shepherd.  Thus, the Indian origin of the word “Palestine” was taken as a proof of the “out of India" hypothesis.

One of the staunch proponents of the “out of India” or should I say “Out of Southern Asia” hypothesis was W.E.B Du Bois. In his book “The Negro,” Du Bois states "from the center in Southern Asia primitive human beings began to differentiate in two directions. Toward the South appeared the primitive Africoid people, long-headed and with flattened hair follicle. He spread along the Southern Asia and passed over into Africa, where he survives today as the reddish dwarfs of the center and the Bushmen of South Africa." Du Bois and many European scholars of his day actually thought that the anatomical modern man originated from Southern Asia. According to them, since the fossil records had shown that the first anatomical modern man (AMM) was black; then, the first AMM had to be a “black Asiatic” - an erroneous assumption that has been disproven by the modern DNA test that shows that the first AMM actually came from Africa, not from Southern Asia as originally thought.

The “out of Southern Asia” hypothesis that was erroneously popularized by Du Bois among the black psuedo-scholars here in the United States was later adopted by many people in the black "spiritually conscious" communities. For example, the Moorish Science Temple, founded by Noble Drew Ali; Nuwaubian nation and the Nation of Islam. It is not uncommon, even today, to see members of the aforementioned communities adhering to the "out of Southern Asia" hypothesis and the erroneous concept of "The Black Asiatic." I must say that Du Bois was accurate in so many other areas, but on the “out of southern Asia” hypothesis, science proved him wrong. This is not a critique of the man, but rather an examination of his misconception and the origin of the misnomer “The Black Asiatic."

Odu "gba were mesin" - Blind Faith.

In the Odu “gba were mesin”......a young initiate from the temple of Ast sought consultation with IFA. IFA warned the young one of an imminent flood, but advised the young one to be prepared and to have faith. Three days after the warning, there was a great flood in the land. The young initiate rushed out of his house to escape the flood, but was swept away by the heavy current into the pool of water where he started to drown.

While drowning, three different boats came one after the other to rescue the young one. But to the rescuers' dismay, the young one refused to get on the boat. He maintained that his salvation was in the hands of IFA, not in the hands of the rescuers, and that his strong faith in IFA would rescue him from the flood. The last rescuer reluctantly left just like the one before him, and the young initiate eventually drowned.

At his death, the young initiate reunited with IFA in the underworld where he protested to IFA for not being saved despite his strong faith in him. IFA responded "I sent three boats to rescue you, but your blind faith prevented you from getting on any of them; so, for your blind faith, you prematurely relegated yourself to the underworld." It is in the underworld the young initiate remains till date.

“Flavian Thesis” Examined.

The thesis that the canonical gospels are allegorical parallels of the Torah, and the writings of Flavius Josephus must be carefully examined. In the book “Caesar’s Messiah,” Joseph Atwill contends that the canonical gospels are typologic fiction formulated by the Flavian Dynasty (i.e. Roman Imperial family) to invalidate the Torah.

While the “Flavian thesis” proposed by Joseph Atwill is interesting, but certainly not convincing, I believe this hypothesis is a clever attempt by Mr. Atwill and his supporters to validate the authenticity of the Torah, and simultaneously invalidate the Canonical gospels. The current writer agrees that the Canonical gospels are typologic fiction, but so is the Torah.

My position, to be specific, is that even if it is true that the Canonical gospels are allegorical parallels of the Torah and the writings of Josephus; the Torah itself is an allegorical parallel of more ancient writings and mythoses (i.e. Homeric writings, Greek mythoses, Egyto-Cushite mythoses etc.). For example, just as the story of Christ in Matthew parallels the story of Moses in Exodus, the story of Moses in Exodus parallels the story of Akhenaton in ancient Egypt. And just as the Gospel of Mark and Luke parallels the supposed writings of Josephus; the story of Samson and Delilah in the Torah parallels the story of Hercules/Herakles in the Greek Mythos. In fact, many of the books in the Torah are named after Greek city states; so, the Hellenistic influence on the writer of the Torah is undeniable.

My research, unlike the “Flavian thesis,” revealed to me that both the Torah and the Canonical Gospels were formulated using a unique typologic method around 10th to 12th century A.D, but not in the 2nd century A.D as now implied in the “Flavian thesis.” What is a typologic method? A typologic method is a literary method whereby a contemporary story is superimposed on a more ancient story to make the contemporary story look ancient – ancient Greek scholars are well known for using typologic method in their writings, so it is plausible that the medieval-era Jewish writers were highly influenced by the literary method of the ancient Greek scholars.   

In fact, I would conjecture that Flavius Josephus was an incarnated personage, created perhaps in the middle ages or even later, whose supposed writings were back dated to defend Judaism as a classical religion and philosophy. It is very complicated to use hindsight to reconstruct ancient history; more specifically, the historical origin of the “Abrahamic Triad" due to the typologic method adopted by the scripture writers to code their writings. But when historians use competitive plausibility in the reconstruction of ancient history, they tend to eliminate what is less likely. In the present case, what is less likely is that the scriptures are true historical records, not some kind of typologic fiction.

The Similarities between Eastern and Western Kush and many more!

As per the similarities between the cultures and religions of Eastern and Western Kush (India being Eastern Kush and Ethiopia being Western Kush); firstly, I would say the most significant similarity between the two cultures is the sacredness of cow/bull. One of the greatest deities, perhaps the greatest, in the Nile Valley (I.e. Western Kush) was Auset (Isis). Auset was a piscean deity of fertility, and was depicted as a cow, the mother goddess Hathor - whom the Semites call the golden calf. Remember, the ancient Nile valley people were big on symbolism; especially, the use of animals to symbolize physical realities and spiritual concepts. Thus, it makes sense that a great deity of fertility would be symbolized by a cow. I believe it's the same cult of Auset (I.e. mother goddess Hathor) that spread from the Western Kush to the Eastern Kush, and I consider this to be the reason why cows are sacred to Indians even today.

Another similarity that I've noticed between the two cultures is the belief in the idea of a "third eye" or a spiritual/hidden eye which can only be activated by the sun. The belief is that the pineal gland, located in the middle of the fore head, can be turned into a third/spiritual eye if activated properly by the sun rays. You may have noticed this in many Egyptian reliefs, where the Pharaoh's forehead is being penetrated by sun rays. The Kemetians called the "third eye" the eye of Heru, and the present day Indians visibly mark the location of the "third eye" with a red dot on their foreheads.

There are many other similarities between the two cultures; most importantly, the commonality of sacred symbols. The famous Hindu cross (I.e. Swastika) is also found on many ancient temples across the Nile, more specifically on the Axumite temple in Ethiopia. The Obelisk as a symbol of reproduction, resurrection and life (i.e. phallic symbol) in the Nile Valley is found under the same symbolism in India as Shiva Lingam.

As per the Tamil people's claim that their language is older than Sanskrit, I agree to this claim. I believe that the Tamil language and many other languages spoken in most of Southern India today are a variant of proto- Dravidian language group. Many contemporary scholars believe that while it's true that the original inhabitants of India and Indian subcontinent (Cusha Dwipa within or Eastern Kush) were Dravidian speaking people (please research Mohenjo-Daro/Harappan civilization), these original Dravidian people were invaded by a nomadic tribe from the North (Nomadic Aryans) who later destroyed the Dravidian's civilization and introduced Sanskrit language into India. Scholars cited the post-invasion nomadic culture of cremation of the dead, prevalent, in India to buttress their foreign invasion hypothesis.

However, the ancient scholars, more specifically, Homer, Herodotus, Strabo, to name but a few, were of the view that the people from the Western and Eastern Kush were one and the same. It is plausible they came into this conclusion based on the morphological similarities between these two groups of people. While I'm not dismissing the thesis of the contemporary and ancient scholars, I am however offering a slightly different view of the racial composition of Eastern Kush (Indian subcontinent) and the historical origin of its people. But before I do so, let me take you back very quicky to the origin of modern man.

I will start by saying that I agree to the evolutionist's mono-genetic origin of man. However, I believe the origin of modern man was that of mutation and hybridization. My research revealed to me that evolution occurred to the point of Grimaldi man, and the rest was a product of hybridization (please see Cro-Magnon man). That is to say, the divergent human species we see today came about through a process of hybridization or cross breeding between the Grimaldi man and the humanoids (I.e. Neanthertals, Denisovans etc).

In my essay "hybridization hypothesis," I surmised with caution that Australian aboriginals were a product of the interbreeding between the Grimaldi men and the Denisovans (sub species of homo sapiens). I believe the Denisovans were the original inhabitants of Australian and Indian subcontinent, but the Grimaldi men came over into these regions from Africa around 40,000 years ago where they interbreed with the Denisovans to survive in a new environment. Out of this interbreeding came the proto Dravidian people, who were the original inhabitants of Eastern Kush. Around 1000 B.C, perhaps much earlier, a group of nomadic men (Nomadic Aryans) from the Caucus region, who were hybrid of Grimaldi and Neanthertals themselves, invaded the Western Kush (North and North East Africa now called the Middle East) via present day Iran, and Eastern Kush (ancient India) via Afghanistan.They destroyed the original Elamite civilization, built by the Western Kushites or the Ethiopians in Iran. They also destroyed the original Mohenjo-Daro/Harappan civilization, built by the ancient Dravidians in the Indus Valley.

I do not believe, however, that this invasion happened just once. There was a series of invasions that spanned almost a millennium. For example, the initial invasion of Eastern Kush by the Turks was not strong enough to subvert the original indigenous spiritual system, but was strong enough to corrupt it into what is known today as Hinduism. Buddhism was later developed by the displaced Dravidians from the South as a protest to the corruption of their ancient system (please research Khmer people of Indian subcontinent) - note the similarity between Khem and Khmer. In the early A.D era, another group of Monist Turks invaded Eastern and Western Kush, and introduced a male dominated religious philosophy called Mohammedanism to these two regions. This is why North Africa, North East Africa (Middle East), and many countries in Indian sub-continent today are Islamic - Islam developed out of Mohammedanism. 

In conclusion, the origin of modern man is that of evolution and hybridization. And I contend that human population outside of Africa is largely a product of hybridization. What I have written here is not written in stone. They are to be studied, interrogated, and challenged.

Hybridization Hypothesis – the origin of Australian aboriginals

I

The mixed type - African/Denisovan type

The unmixed - 100% African type

The unmixed - 100% Denisovan type

Most of the mainstream archeologists and evolutionary anthropologists believe that the Australian aboriginals descended from a group of Homo sapiens, who were said to have left Africa about 40,000-70,000 years ago for Australia. However, in my proposed hybridization theory, I am suggesting that the Australian aboriginals are largely a product of interbreeding between the Homo sapiens and the Homo Denisovans (subspecies of Homo sapiens, native to the Australian sub-continent).

What am I really trying to convey? I am proposing that the proto-inhabitants of the Australian sub-continent were Homo Denisovans who were well adapted to that environment. However, about 40,000-70,000 years ago, a group of Homo sapiens left Africa and journeyed into Australian sub-continent where they encountered Homo Denisovans and interbred with them to survive in an unfamiliar environment. Of course, in most cases of interbreeding, not everyone in the population is (un)fortunate enough to be absorbed into the admixture – some remain unmixed. Similarly, in the case of the Australian aboriginals, some of them are a product of the admixture between the African immigrants (i.e. Homo sapiens) and the natives (i.e. Homo Denisovans), but a number of them are not mixed at all – that is, a number of them are descendants of either the pure-bred Homo sapiens or Denisovans.

Today, the “hybrid genotype and phenotype” are well preserved amongst the aboriginals in main land Australia, but to a lesser degree in West Papua and Solomon Island. The pure Denisovans’ genotype and phenotype are well preserved amongst the Papua New Guineans; whereas, the pure Homo sapiens’ genotype and phenotype are well preserved amongst the Solomon and Vanuatu Islanders, but to a lesser degree amongst the Papua New Guineans. In fact, in one of the Solomon Islanders' folklores that I read, it says that the Solomon Islanders’ progenitors migrated from Tanzania (East Africa) 40,000-60,000 years ago, and many of their elders today testify to the truth of this East-African migration theory.

To further buttress my hypothesis, let me refer you to an article published by Carl Zimmer in the Discover magazine this year (“Intebreeding with Neandethals,” March 04, 2013). In it, Carl says: “the Denisovan genes were closest to the Neanderthals, but the genome had many mutations not found in either humans or Neanderthals. Denisovan ancestors apparently had diverged from the ancestors of Neanderthals somewhat more recently than the split between Neanderthals and modern human beings. It is possible that their common ancestor emigrated from Africa many hundreds of thousands of years ago. The ancestors of Neanderthals headed north....The Denisovans’ ancestors, meanwhile, headed east and survived long enough to at least leave that pinkie bone in the Siberian cave......Knowing that Neanderthals and humans had interbred, Reich and his colleagues (The Harvard researches) looked carefully for Denisovan DNA in the genomes of living humans. They found it in genomes from two populations, one from New Guinea and another from the nearby island of Bougainville. As much as 5 percent of their DNA came from the vanished Denisovans.” (http://discovermagazine.com/2013/march/14-interbreeding-neanderthals).

The current revelation in my hypothesis and in the Harvard genome research enclosed above is probably just the beginning of a new understanding of our evolution. I hope my hypothesis would enlighten the ideologues who argue vehemently against the “out of Africa migration” with a flawed genome result that links the Australian aboriginals to Asia, not Africa. I have made it clear in my hypothesis that the so-called native people of Australian sub-continent are not racially homogenous. That is, while some of them appear to be 100% Denisovans (i.e. subspecies of Homo sapiens, native to Australian sub-continent and some parts of Asia), some of them are actually genetically and phenotypically100% Homo sapiens (the migrant Africans), and the rest appear to be a mixture of both. So depending on which aboriginal group you include in your genome test, you are bound to come up with different DNA results. 

In conclusion, I must say that the primary focus of my hypothesis at this time is the origin of Australian aboriginals, but the hypothesis can be broadened to include the origin of any racial group.

All these people are native to Australian sub-continent

The Cult of Serapis and the Pagan Origin of "Abrahamic Triad."

The bust of Serapis

The cult of Serapis was rooted in the Ancient Egyptian belief in the Divine father, Osiris (Ausar). Serapis was derived from the combination of two well-known Egyptian gods, Osiris and Apis (Osiris+Apis = Osirapis or Serapis). Technically, the cult of Osiris and Apis predated the Ptolemies (i.e., the Greek dynasty of ancient Egypt - 323-30 BC). But it was the Ptolemaic rulers who fused the two gods into one.

That is, before the creation of Serapis by the Ptolemaic dynasty (the Greeks) of Ancient Egypt, Osiris was the mythological god of the Nile valley who presided over the throne of judgment - The Pharaohs were regarded as the vicar of Osiris on earth. The Ptolemaic rulers, however, changed this traditional arrangement by creating a new god, Serapis, in the exact likeness of the father, Osiris. The only difference was that the Ptolemaic rulers elevated themselves to the status of god/Serapis, and demanded to be worshipped as such – a clear violation of the traditional arrangement in which man, regardless of status, can only be the vicar of god on earth, but not god himself. The traditional thought process was that god could only have one nature, which is divine, not human. 

Osiris, the father, sitting on the throne of Judgment

The Coptic community of Egypt (mostly Hellenized Africans) rejected the Ptolemaic ruler's stance on being one and the same with the newly created father, Serapis. They refused to worship the Ptolemaic rulers as gods. The Ptolemy rulers responded by closing down all the ancient temples of Egypt and in some cases killing and exiling the African priests who opposed them.

The Romans took over the rule of Ancient Egypt from the Greeks (the Ptolemaic rulers) after the Greeks had ruled for nearly 300 years. And it was the Romans, more specifically Emperor Constantine who Christianized Serapis, and made Serapis a creature with dual nature (human and divine). The Coptic Egyptians (Africans) and a handful of Turks and Arabs (hybrid of Turks, Greeks and Africans) in North and North East Africa (now Middle East) rejected the dual nature of Serapis just like their previous ancestors. They maintained that Serapis the father could only have one nature which was divine, not human.

All in all, Constantine was successful in making Serapis the Christ (I.e. Iesus Christos) - a creature with dual nature (human and divine). Constantine legacy divided the Roman Empire into two philosophical camps: the Eastern camp (North Africa, Middle East and Asia) and the Western camp (Western and Central Europe) - See the Crusade. The Eastern camp believed that the created Serapis only had one divine nature like the original father, Osiris, and refused to worship Serapis as the Christ with dual nature. However, the western camp accepted Serapis as the Christ, having dual nature - see the Nicaea council I&II.

Today, the Western camp are the Christians (Dyophysites) and the Eastern camp are the Muslims (Monophysites) – see Allah/Mahommet/One Nature. In other words, Muslims are Monophysite Christians. And Christians are worshippers of Serapis, now called Christ - who our ancestors refused to worship. But we in our ignorance continue to worship a creature dissimilar from the father, a creature nonetheless (Arius - see Arianism), and we continue to suffer in the world because of our ignorance. Wake up!

WAKE UP

I identify, wholeheartedly, with any group of people who portray themselves as the "chosen ones," or better yet, colonized god in their own image. But I refuse to sympathize with people who worship and praise god that is not in their own image, or worse still, a god that has failed to choose them in the first place. I cannot sympathize with them because they refuse to reason logically.

The image of god is high and mighty in our conscious and sub-conscious minds. So if a group of people have managed to be chosen by god or have colonized the image of god; invariably, those godly people are high and mighty in the conscious and sub-conscious minds of those who choose to worship that same god. It is not an accident that the people that have portrayed themselves as the chosen ones and those that have colonized the image of god are the same people who now control the world as a collective. It is called “positive self-fulfilling prophesy.” However, the “tag-alongs” or those who are willingly waiting for the return of the messiah to establish their own relationship with the creator are now the peasants of the world.

Imagine the joy, the confidence, the ego in a little child’s mind looking up and seeing god in his/her own image or looking down into a holy book and reading that his/her people are chosen by God. Now contrast that with another child, who looks up to a godly image that does not resemble him/her or look down to read a holy book that makes no reference to his/her people being chosen by god. In the liberated mind of the first child, the world is his father’s realm, so he/she can do as he/she pleases. However, in the poisoned mind of the second child, the world is a struggle, so he/she looks up to the first child for salvation. The first child is god in the second child’s mind. So, the struggle continues!

I think if you need to subscribe to a deity, you should subscribe to one in your own image. There are some people who would try to validate the three major belief systems we have today by pointing to their Kemetic, Ethiopic and Sumerian origins. I contend that this old and well-known fact should not be used as a point of validation, but rather as a point of rejection. I think it is ludicrous to validate and accept a fallacy just because you can trace its root to your land. The mere fact that these belief systems, in spite of their common origin, are in constant struggle to annihilate each other to the detriment of our civilization speaks volume to their emptiness. After all, if their deity is mighty and powerful as purported in their books, why fight for it - it can fight for itself.

Religion is an effective ideological tool for promoting, through the use of allegorical method, cultural supremacy and political control. As a matter of fact, an effective way to achieve an ideological goal is through the use of allegorical method. The most prominent allegorical method ever formulated by man is that of the eternal struggle between god and devil. Man’s main ideological goal is to feed his ego; so, he associates all that satisfies his ego with god and the opposite with devil. In other words, man creates god in his own image to always support or stand for man’s egocentric agenda. Thus, it is no accident that religious ideology is formulated on the allegorical struggle between god and devil; where, the godly people are rewarded with heaven and the devilish people are banished to hell – it is a control tool.

The current writer finds that the religious texts contain plasma (relating imaginary events as if they were real) and mythos (telling what never happened) but no historia (describing what actually happened). Thus, all the stories in the religious texts are allegories, compiled for the ideological goal of promoting cultural supremacy and political control.

7 Light Code Secrets

1) The secret of celestial and earthly bodies

Everything above in high heavens is the same as everything below here on earth

(as above so below). That is, all the celestial bodies are reproduced in miniature form in the earthly bodies. The celestial universe above comprises of trillions of stars and hundreds of trillions of planets. Similarly, human body comprises of

As above so below

 trillions of cells and hundreds of trillions of atoms – the celestial sun and the nucleus of an atom are essentially the same. “Every star in the heavens, every element on earth, and every function in nature is represented by a corresponding center, pole, or activity within the human body.” (Manley P. Hall).

2) The secret of the “word”

“In the beginning was the word, and the word was with god, and the word was god.” The word is a sound frequency (the word=sound frequency), which when amplified can rearrange atoms and change the structure of matter. An experiment was once performed in which an empty glass cup was placed right in front of a loud speaker. As the loud speaker sound frequency was amplified, the empty glass cup started to vibrate violently into different shapes until it eventually shattered into pieces – such is the amplification power of the “word.” There are ancient myths involving the notion of plant growth being stimulated by music. In fact in the mid-1960’s, researchers at Canada’s University of Ottawa performed a series of experiments resulting in the discovery that sound at a specific frequency could stimulate the growth of plants. Thus, basic farm equipment of the future is recommended to have sound-generating equipment and loud-speakers (Michael Bradley “The Iceman Inheritance”)

  3) The secret of “Two-Truth”

Our perception of reality in matter is formulated on universal polar or binary opposite. Everything that exists in matter does so with its polar opposite or perfect antithesis i.e. male/female, electricity/magnetism (electro-magnetism),

0/1, black/white, good/evil, to do/not to do (free will), live/death, awake/asleep, open/close etc. Man is a condensation of Atum/Aten/Atom living in a “two-truth” virtual reality.

4) The secret of absolute

The secret of absolute is hidden in the secret of “two-truth.” That is, nothing is absolute. Everything in matter is relative. Your knowledge, experience or observation of a paricular reality is predicated on the existence of that reality's polar or binary opposite. For example, when you’re extremely happy, someone else is extremely sad. And it is from the other person's extreme sadness that you’re conscious of your own happiness. The wave-particle duality, in quantum mechanics, provides empirical support for this assumption.

5) The secret of matter

Does matter really exist? Yes, matter does exist. But it is our mind or thought that assigns dimension and form to matter. Without human mind, matter is formless.

6) The secret of mind

Human mind is the universal creator in the material world. Everything that is currently visible to our eyes was once an invisible idea in the mind of a man. And everything that is currently invisible to our eyes is already visible to the imaginative mind of a man. In other words, if you can imagine it, you can create it.

7) The secret of god, belief and faith

Man creates god in his own image and ascribes to god mankind characteristics i.e. corporeality, sex, emotion (pettiness, anger, love, jealousy etc.), wickedness, death, life, bigotry, discrimination, racism etc. The possibility of a higher power is undeniable; however, the highest power of all is nature. Nature does not display emotion, nature does not discriminate, and certainly nature does not die. The impact of nature is felt equally by all. Regardless of if you believe in nature or not, you deny nature, you deny your own existence. You deny air, water, sun, wind, storm, hurricane, earthquake etcetera; you deny your own existence. Man spiritualizes and breathes life to his creation through belief. Belief limits the mind to a circumference of awareness. And everything outside that circumference of awareness is beyond the reach of the mind. Hence beliefs limit the mind. Faith is nothing but a confident expectancy in something. Having very strong faith in something triggers the spirit of confident expectancy in the subconscious mind, which in turns sets in motion the fulfillment of desires.

Bonus - The secret of success is knowledge.

Oversimplification or Outright Deception?

Some people call the “theological personification” of solar and celestial bodies an obvious deception or outright lie, but I call it oversimplification. I mean, if you conceived a product; a product you knew very well would sell; a product you knew would change the world, would you not simplify this product to make sure the masses can understand and use it? We all know that it is product simplification that gives the creator or designer a comparative advantage in the market.

Designers understand that consumers are divided into two groups: the elites and the masses. Mankind in general, like consumers, is divided into two groups: the intellectual elites and the masses. The intellectual elites consume to create; they demand facts and originality. However, the masses consume for entertainment; they are indisposed to facts and originality.

Many entrepreneurs in our society today have capitalized on this basic distinction to create abundant wealth for themselves. To give but one example, Bill Gate. Bill Gate's first creation was the command based Disk Operating System (i.e., MS DOS), a close relative of the ultra-superior UNIX Operating System; however, MS DOS was not user friendly and was not appealing to the mainstream. Hence, its use was restricted to the computer intellectual elites, not the masses. It dawned on Mr. Gate that for his product to sell well in the market and generate wealth, he needed to make his product user friendly and appealing to the masses. Mr. Gate listened to his inner self and went ahead to codify MS DOS into a more user friendly graphical user interface, called WINDOWS. Although MS DOS was a better product than MS WINDOWS, the masses prefer the latter because of its user friendliness and its simplicity.

What dawned on Mr. Gate above is reminiscent of what dawned on most writers of the scriptures. The writers of the scriptures came across a very powerful ancient astrotheology, but indulged in oversimplification in order to sell this knowledge to the general populace. That is, they anthropomorphized ancient astrotheology and created tribal stories around it. It was Moses Maimonides (i.e., the writer of the Pentateuch, Torah or the first 5 books of the OT), who says “When I see no other way of teaching a well-established truth except by pleasing one intelligent man and displeasing ten thousand fools, I choose to address myself to the one intelligent man and take no notice whatsoever of the multitude.” In light of this statement, Moses Maimonides divided his thesis into two (Kabbalah and the Torah): one for the intellectual elites and the other for the masses.

 The scripture’s writers considered the ancient texts to be too abstract and metaphysical, and concluded that if left in their original form, they would only make sense to the intellectual elites, but would lead the masses to unbelief. The scripture’s writers were well aware that persons other than the intellectual elites would be exposed to their writings, so they decided to codify their writings in a simple, yet enigmatic style.

They would discuss the same topic in different passages(i.e., Mathew, Mark, Luke and John). They would personify the SUN in the ancient texts as the theological SON of god. They would personify the 12 Zodiacal Constellations or the SUN 12-step movement in higher heavens as the 12 disciples of the SON; the 12 tribes, the 12 brothers of Joseph etc. They would personify the WINTER SOLSTICE as the birth of the SON, and SPRING EQUINOX (when the SUN starts to pass or cross over the equator) as the Passover/liberation of the Israelites from slavery and/or the resurrection of the SON. They would personify the 3-star system pointing to Sirius (i.e., the brightest star in the night sky) as the 3 wise kings tracking the birth of the SON. They would personify the SUN, at the equator in the middle of 4 earthly seasons, as the SON on the cross. They would silhouette the image of the SON from the SUN light in the background to show their intent, but many still refuse to see.

I can understand the scripture writer’s indulgence in “simplistic personification” to sell ancient knowledge to their tribes, but I cannot understand modern masses taking this “simplistic personification” literarily. There are those who we are sure know better, but continue to scare the masses with deception – deception gives them comparative advantage over others. It would be accurate to call such people lairs and falsifiers, and such labels I would accept.

Theology, like MS Windows, appeals to the masses because of its simplicity. However, they both have dire shortcomings. Look around you, the biggest consumers of the personified version of theology are the biggest losers in the world, but the intellectual elites who possess the knowledge of the ancient originals are the rulers of the planet today. Think about it!

I maintain that there are many many suns of god (just look up in the night sky), and there are many many sons of god (just look down at yourself) - as above so below.
