Svastikas, ancient symbols, Mayan prophecies, the hollow earth
theory and more are discussed
Ganesh
and Skanda - the First Gods
by Juraj SIpos
Life on Earth
has ONE history of the Beginning...
The main focus
of this article is the author's view about the abuse of svastika by
the Western civilization. Its use is prohibited in Germany and
several countries have legislation that may put an innocent person
to prison only because of using this symbol. There is a petition to
the European Union, as German MP's are calling to ban the svastika
across all Europe. The origin of this ancient symbol is not known to
most of Europeans.
Ganesh and
Skanda are Hindu Gods and Hinduism is one of the oldest documented
religions in the world. Images of Ganesh were also found in South
America from times of the pre-Columbian era. Some say that one
cosmological system could be here that had developed in ancient
times all over the world.
The word
Ganesh (or Ganesha) means Lord of Hosts. This God is the Lord of
good fortune; He is the Remover of obstacles.
Sanatana
Dharma
The
etymological origin of the word "Hinduism" was developed later and
its roots had been brought by conquerors of the then Indian
subcontinent. The Slavic pre-Christian god of the sun, Swarog, is
tightly associated with svastika (Hindu symbol; but it is found in
many cultures including ancient Jews.). In neo-paganist religions,
Swarog is often the supreme god-creator and the central part of the
(holy) trinity Triglav. A very interesting similarity with Swarog
has the word "Swarga", which is a set of nether worlds located on
the svastika mountain - Mt. Kailash in Tibet.
Better term
for Hinduism is therefore *Sanatana Dharma*. Of this belief,
evolutional forms of Hinduism - Buddhism, Jainism...evolved. There
are four mainstream religions in India: Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism,
and Islam.
Hinduism or
Sanatana Dharma is a faith in God that underpins the basic humane
principles of brotherhood, kind-heartedness and good life. This
religion believes in eternal reincarnation of which you may set
yourself free by various practices and come to a higher state of
Being called moksha - liberation. Christians have salvation, Hindus
moksha, Buddhists nirvana. Hindus believe that God is ONE, but has
many forms.
Birth of
Ganesh and some history
Ganesha (and
Skanda too) is understood to be the first God in that sense that if
someone wants to come up to Shiva, he must first get through the
Ganesha's doorstep. He is mentioned in the oldest Veda - Rig Veda.
Ganesh was
born on the fourth day in the Hindu month Magh and He has many
powerful aspects. He is also considered to be the master of
astrology. According to the Hindu calendar of religious events, His
birthday is celebrated in August/September, and this date is
variable similarly like Christian Easter (based on the lunar
calendar).
Hinduism
consists of three basic (mainstream) branches of which 1) shaivism
is the oldest one. Hence, God Shiva is the absolute God; in other
Hindu denominations it is Shakti (female principle) - 2) shaktism;
or Vishnu and His avatar (incarnation) Krishna - 3) vaishnavism.
The Hindu
"Trinity" or TRIMURTI represents three aspects of God: Brahma - the
Creator; Vishnu - the Protector; Shiva - the Destroyer. Furthermore,
along with shAktam (Shakti), shAivam, vAishnava systems, there are
also:
gANApatyam -
followers of God Ganesh (they consider Ganapati to be the Absolute
God); kaumAram - followers of kaumAram (Ganesha's brother); sAuram -
followers of Surya
The
fundamental concept of Hinduism is TRIMURTI, which is not at all
violated by other concepts such as the QUINTUPLE or SEXTUPLET
concept where Ganesh has His place. Adi Shankara, a famous Indian
teacher (born in the year 686), propagates the Shanmata - "six
opinions" tradition: Ganesha, Shiva, Shakti, Vishnu, Surya and
Skanda (other name of the Ganesha's brother).
Contrary to
homogenous Christianity or Buddhism, Hindu schools/sects are forked
rivers. Albeit there are many Christian denominations, they all have
CHRIST. Contrary to Hinduism, Buddhism is a clear and relatively
very homogenous path to liberation.
In Hinduism,
mainstream Vaishnava, Shakta and Shaiva schools are well-documented,
but they also have their offshoots. Cults of sUrya, skAnda and
gAnApAtyA are poorly documented.
In esoteric
Buddhism, Ganesh in Japan is pictured as a Twin-God - two figures
joined to one, often with sexual connotation. These statues are not
seen publicly. In Japan, there are more than 250 temples dedicated
to Lord Ganesh and He has names such as Kanki-Ten, Kangi-Ten,
Shooten, Vinayaaka, or Daishoo Kangiten. In Kamakura (a city in
Japan), there is a temple (Hookaij-Ji) with allegedly the oldest
statue of Ganesh in Japan; it is locked and supposed to have been
preserved locked there from the year 1333. The Twin God is nanten -
male, nyoten - female Ganesha. It also represents His/Her ego.
Many
historians date the presence of Ganesh in Japan back to times when a
great monk - Kukai (774- 834) - started the Shingon sect in Japanese
Buddhism. The means of worshiping Ganesha, Ganabachi, Vinayaka or
Kangiten embody something that makes this cult different from other
Buddhist streams. The teaching, rituals and beliefs of the cult have
many parallels with the cult of Ganapatyas.
The cult of
the Greek god Dionysus, which later transformed to a secret cult of
god Bacchus (freedom, sex, inebriation - something similar to a
left-handed path, or Vamachara tantra) is considered by some to have
the Vedic origin; thus, there is a term such as "Vedic Egypt", too,
which is also described by Swami Krishnapada. Western Christian
scholars have difficulties to accept the fact that some ancient
Egyptians were under the influence of the Vedas and the Vedic Gods.
Symbolism of
Ganesh - the first syllable of the universe
In Ganesha
Purana it is written: At His command Lord Brahma creates the
universe. At His command Lord Visnu maintains the universe. At His
command Lord Siva destroys the universe. At His command the Sun,
Lord of the day, moves throughout the universe. At His command Vayu
directs the wind. At His command Varuna causes the waters to flow in
all directions. At His command the stars shine in the sky. At His
command Agni burns in the three worlds...
Ganesha is the
first sound, OM, in which all hymns were born. When Shakti -
(Energy) and Shiva (Matter) meet, Sound (Ganesh) and Light (Skanda)
are born. The number FOUR is the principle message of svastika.
Ganesha's head symbolizes atman. His big body represents the earthly
existence of humankind, but also maya - "illusion of this world".
His elephant head indicates that He is the wisest and most powerful
Being among animals; His wide ears indicate that He is able to hear
anything in the universe...
This God wrote
Mahabharata as a scribe when the sage Vyasa dictated this old Indian
epos to Him. He has a trident on His forehead, which some authors
consider to be a link to Atlantis, as it is also Poseidon's symbol
(Greek god of the sea).
Svastika is in
His right hand; the mouse at the bottom of His body indicates that
He can get secretly anywhere.
Skanda
Skanda, the
second son of Shiva, and the younger brother of Ganesha - but some
scholars oppose this view and consider Skanda to be older than
Ganesha, is also known as Kumara, Karttikeya, Shanmukha, Subrahmanya,
and He has many other names. His weapon is a spear and He is
considered to be a war God. He has a strong support in South Asia
(South of India - Indian state Tamil Nadu, Sri Lanka, Singapore...)
Followers of
this God consider Him to be an Avatar of Lord Shiva. All
incarnations are manifestations of the One Supreme God. They also
think that Lord Skanda and Lord Krishna are one, and as evidence
they use this verse from Bhagavadgita (Chapter 10), where Lord
Krishna says this to Arjuna: " Senaninam Aharn Skandah ,"- "Of the
Generals, I am Skanda."
Sadkona Yantra
Yantra is a
symbolic visualization of a deity; yatras often look like a matrix
with geometrical lines and when we visualize it in our mind, we
clear the path on our way to God (mantra is a sound, usually a holy
word, a syllable, or a sequence of such words we repeatedly
pronounce, most frequently in Sanskrit.).
Skanda emerged
from the light of the six Shiva's sparks, which flashed from the
Lord Shiva's Third Eye, and Skanda Yantra is almost identical to the
famous hexagram - the "Jewish Star", or the Star of David. The Seal
of Solomon also contained the hexagram image - the "yantra" of the
Biblical God YHVH (the word "yantra" is not used in Jewish-Christian
religions, though).
The Seal of
Solomon was a magical signet ring said to have been possessed by
King Solomon, which variously gave him the power to command demons,
or to do other miraculous things. The God's name - Tetragrammaton
("word with four letters" - YHVH) - was written on it. The identify
of the holy depiction of the God Skanda's symbol with the Jewish and
Christian God, too - Sadkona Yantra - gives a strong tinge to any
argumentation in favor of the fact that humankind has one common
history and that the same God spoke to Jews and to other people on
this Earth in ancient times.
Abuse of
svastika
Not all people
do know that Adolf Hitler was a mystical lunatic who used various
elements of occultism to set up a bizarre theory about the ancient
advent of a "higher race" the origin of which was the far north. In
his attempt to initiate a contact with this race, Hitler invested to
the research of South America and Tibet a lot of money.
The first
element of the Nazi occultism was built upon a reference about a
mythical land - Hyperborea-Thule, which is also analogical to
Plato's Atlantis, but with one difference - Herodotus described an
Egyptian legend about a continent Hyperborea existing somewhere in
the far north. Thus, a Thule society (Thule-Gesellschaft) was
founded in 1918, and its mainmast stood on the above-mentioned
notion that Germans are descendants from this continent.
Thule-Gesellschaft
and its occult offshoots used several intriguing aspects in coloring
these occult skins - one of them was a belief that our Earth is
hollow and that "a race" could live, or once lived, in its bowels,
and this race - the "Aryan race"- left some hallmarks here... Thus,
Germans as "their" descendants are, as a matter of fact, offshoots
of this SUPER RACE; better than Slavs, Indians, Jews...
Svastika is
the ancient symbol of prosperity, innocence and good life, but Nazis
used this symbol to spread it viciously worldwide contrary to the
meaning it (svastika) represents. The "super race" had once used
this symbol all over the Earth, for the existence of which the Nazis
had "proofs" - "they" left this holy sign in Tibet; "they" marked
South America with this symbol.
"Proofs" for
the esoteric theory of "Hollow Earth"
Information
included herein does not intend to prove or confirm the concept of
Hollow Earth Theory, but only to outline how this ancient symbol (svastika)
was abused by overconfident white civilization.
Hopi tribe
These Indians
say that a "Spider Woman" saved them from the destruction (flood) of
the second World. The Spider Woman (a very similar representation of
Ganesh, who has a trunk and four hands) led them out of the
underground world where they had been kept in protection.
Even today,
Hopis have an aperture aground in their dwellings as proof that they
came up to this world from the bowels of Earth. The famous "Hopi
Prophecy", which captivates minds of many people and scholars,
contains the symbol of svastika.
Admiral Byrd
and his secret diary
Admiral Byrd
was one of the greatest US military explorers born in 1888. He was
an excellent voyager, pilot, and air instructor. This man also
became famous with his "secret diary", which contains description of
exploration flight over the North Pole and here are some excerpts:
They are close
enough now to see the markings on them. It is a type of Svastika!!!
1135 Hours -
Our radio crackles and a voice comes through in English with what
perhaps is a slight Nordic or Germanic accent! The message is:
'Welcome, Admiral, to our domain. We shall land you in exactly seven
minutes! Relax, Admiral, you are in good hands.' I note the engines
of our plane have stopped running! The aircraft is under some
strange control and is now turning itself. The controls are useless.
'We have let
you enter here because you are of noble character and well-known on
the Surface World, Admiral.' Surface World, I half-gasp under my
breath! 'Yes," the Master replies with a smile, 'you are in the
domain of the Arianni, the Inner World of the Earth...'
Smoky God
Olaf Jansen, a
fisherman from Norway, after going astray in the sea, visited the
underground world too. The book entitled "Smoky God", or A Voyage to
the Inner World by W. G. Emerson, describes the underworld as a
domain inhabited by intelligent beings with very advanced
technology:

Did Indians
prepare some astonishing revelation for us - what shall happen when
the Maya calendar ends?
The Mayan
calendar does not end, only its cycle, but many people speak of the
end. The end of the Maya calendar (cycle) is December 23, 2012.
However, there are two correlations; this one comes from Lounsbury.
Another one, from Goodman, Martinez-Hernandez and Thompson, suggests
that the end is December 21, 2012.
It is very
interesting that Mayans calculated dates for such a distant future.
The calendar starts in the year 3114 BC - very close to the date of
Krishna's disappearance, but also close to the beginning of Kali
Yuga - the age of darkness (January 23, 3102 BC). If you try to fish
out some correlations between the Hindu and Mayan calendar, a
twelve-year difference between the onset of the Mayan calendar and
the Krishna's disappearance is really startling.
If the country
like Germany with several thousand churches around really lived as
Christ had wished, no such a thing as Nazism would have happened.
Our European and US culture is Christian only by its name. Christ
explicitly commands nonviolence. How can the president of the most
powerful nation come out of church and start war a few days later?
Ku Klux Klan
uses the symbol of Christian Cross for their misdeeds - shall this
be a new topic for banning the Christian Cross across Europe for EU?
