Reddit mentions of The Sirius Mystery: New Scientific Evidence of Alien Contact 5,000 Years Ago

it's a long story, but it's inclusive of but not limited to a lot of very hard archaeological and anthropological data..

Start here:

then go here
http://www.amazon.com/The-Science-Dogon-Decoding-Tradition/dp/1594771332/ref=pd_bxgy_b_img_b

then go learn about the Sirius connection to the pharaonic mystery cults and to freemasonry. Why are the dog days so important in the masonic tradition ?

Then start tracking the Sirius connection into the dark occult forces that currently run our society.

"Kenneth Grant, one of Crowley's closest associates in the Ordo Templi Orientis, repeatedly links Crowley with Sirius and seems to be hinting that the 'Holy Guardian Angel' contacted by Crowleyan mind-expansion techniques is a denizen of Sirius. J.G. Bennett, one of the closest of George Gurdjieff's associates, also tells us of coded references to Sirius in Gurdjieff's writings. Sufi historian Indries Shah traces the name of the Illuminati back to a verse in the Koran which mentions a shining star, and Crowley's alternative name for the Illuminati was the Order of the Silver Star (Argentum Astrum)."

I commented in the cross-posted thread. That etymology is different than what I would have suspected, as you can see in my comment. I did not know about the "sky father" myth. I thought that "sky daddy" was just a contemporary anglicization of "Father God" or something like that.

I do like SKY DADDY, though. And there are so many things which resonate with or reference it: Alan Parsons's SIRIUS/Eye in the Sky (the Sirius/Dogon Cosmology and Orion mysteries themselves are extremely interesting Robert Temple and Robert Bauval), Philip K. Dick's book "Eye in the Sky" (PKD was a Gnostic mystic in his later years,) and of course the band which Alan Parsons really got his fame for producing, Pink Floyd, has the classic, timeless "The Great Gig in the Sky" which echoes this sentiment to some degree, but also alludes to a future event foreshadowed everywhere else in pop culture from David Bowie and his Ziggy Stardust cosmology to Bradley Nowell and Sublime's "Jailhouse" vision of a great concert "up there" with all of the masters of yore participating. (That is my interpretation of it, anyway.)


Some excerpts of the lyrics to Jailhouse:

>"hat has been told to the wise and up-rooted
>
>is gonna be revealed unto babes and sublime
>
>I know that I'm gonna be there yeah
>
>Bud Gaugh will be singing there
>
>And Eric Wilson will be bangin' up there, yea
>
>And we'll be all singin ... with version, with version,
>
>Reagge version

I should add that I have always had this notion myself of "A rose by any other name ..." with regard to the "creator" God. If this be a computer simulation, or something unlike anything we know, or if "aliens" create everything, whatever, however, a rose by any other name ... They are all the same to us. As Arthur C. Clarke says: "Any sufficiently advanced technology would be indistinguishable from magic."
