Spiritual Practices of the Necronomicon Tradition: The Morning Prayer and Meditation

meditation

I would like to welcome everyone to the GateWalker’s Info Page. if this is your first time here, please review some of our previous articles so that you may understand the content of our current discussion.

Dan Harms raised some interesting points about the the use of the Simon Necronomicon as a spiritual system during one of our recent debates. This question may also have crossed the minds of both avid readers of the GateWalkers’s Page, as well as, new practitioners of the Simon Necronomicon. Therefore, I though that it might be useful to list some of the spiritual practices of the Necronomicon Tradition for newcomers and the initiated.

Before we begin this discussion, it is necessary for me to state that there has been a lot of misinformation concerning the occult arts spreading throughout the internet and “new age “books as of late.  I am certain that the origin of this situation lies in the fact that many who attracted to the occult arts have misguided intent. Simon was aware of this problem as well. In the introduction of the Simon Necronomicon, under the subheading, The Devil, Simon makes the following observation:

“For, as it is said in one of man’s most ancient of Covenants, the Emerald Table, “As Above, So Below”. Man’s power to alter the nature of his environment must develop simultaneously with his ability to master his inner environment, his own mind his psyche, soul, spirit. Perhaps, then, the lunar landing was the first collective initiation for humanity, which will bring it one step closer to a beneficial Force that resides beyond the race of the “cruel celestial spirits”, past the Abyss of Knowledge. Yet, he must remember that the occult powers that accompany magickal attainment are ornamental only, indications of obstacles overcome on the Path to Perfection, and are not to be sought after in themselves, for therein lies the truth Death.”

It is very sad to see that most people involved in the occult arts are not aware of the theme of the Greater Mysteries and wind up hurting themselves in the process of “dabbling” and joining occult orders whose sole purpose is bent on seeing some sort of “miraculous” things occur just because a ritual is performed. The evidence of supernatural phenomena and how it enters your experience is not the goal of the Greater Mysteries, but perfection of self is. There is no value in ritual if  one has no relationship with the deity that is being called.  The purpose of occult initiations is to open up a relationship with the entities that one will use in their occult practice. The idea that some entity, which is over 2,000 years old is going to help someone who is under four decades old just because they can read a passage out of a book is simply stupid. This is why the Simon Necronomicon includes a path of self-initiation.  It is a complete system.

The next hangup that many have in the occult community is the use of money to acquire books or to pay dues to a credible occult organization.  One has to be careful because there are a lot of scams out there. Do your research and check references before aligning with any group, whether it is free to join, or there are membership fees. Membership fees are often used by serious occult organizations to screen out the mere curious from those who are serious about the Greater Mysteries. This principle also applies to the spiritual world as well. Every deity requires some sort of sacrifice, whether its prayerful devotion, bread, or etc. If the said occult organization is an actual physical manifestation of a spiritual one then they have every right to imitate their ruling deity’s action by charging membership fees. Time is money and if a person doesn’t see the need to reimburse someone who as taken their own time to help someone understand a valuable practice, it just further proof that selfish people still exist in the world. While people may believe that they can escape their actions, it must be understood that regardless if a person is walking a dark or light path, success in the occult world lies entirely of virtue. If you are looking for a reputable “occult organization”  where you can really gain some good insight into the Greater Mysteries then look into The Temple of the Vampire. Now let us begin to look at some spiritual practices of the Necronomicon Tradition

Morning Prayer

There are many prayers listed in the Simon Necronomicon, sometimes they are called “incantations. However, there is one prayer that is specifically to be done during the day. The best time for it is when we awaken in the morning. It is mentioned in the beginning of the Second Testimony of the Mad Arab:

“UR! NIPPUR!
ERIDU! KULLAH!
 KESH! LAGASH!
SHURUPPAL SELAH!

Day of Living, Rising Sun
Day of Plenty, gracious Sun
Day of Perfect, Grand Delight
Day of Fortune, Brilliant Night
O Shining Day!
O Laughing Day!
O Day of Life, and Love and Luck!
Seven Oldest, Wisest Ones!
Seven Sacred, Learned Ones!
Be my Guardians, polished Swords
Be my Watchful, patient Lords
Protect me from the Rabishu
O Shining, Splendorous APHKALLHU
!”

This is the Morning Prayer of the Necronomicon Tradition. It is a way of acknoledging and thank the Gate deities for another day and a reminder of our relationship with them. This is not something made up in the mind of Simon, but it is an actual ancient Mesopotamian prayer. If we look further into the APHKALLHU we can get a sense that this is a protective prayer.

The term APHKALLHU derives from the term Apkallu, which Wikipedia gives the following definition:

“The Abgal, (Akkadian: Apkallu) are seven Sumerian demigods said to have been created by the god Enki (Akkadian: Ea) to give civilization to mankind. They served as priests of Enki and as advisors or sages to the earliest “kings” or rulers of Sumeria before the flood. They are credited with giving mankind the me (moral code), the crafts, and the arts. They were seen as fish-like men who emerged from the sweet water Apsu. They are commonly represented as having the lower torso of a fish, or dressed as a fish. They have also been depicted with wings, having either a human head or an eagle’s head.[1]

Adapa (U-an, Oannes) was the first of the Apkallu. The others were U-an-dugga, En-me-duga, En-me-galanna, En-me-buluga, An-enlilda, and Utu-abzu.”

This prayer works very well for protection and prosperity and should be recited twice a day.There are more spiritual practice that are given to us in the Second Testimony of the Mad Arab:

“and the Priest must calm them and take this book, of which he must make a copy in his own,..”

This is also emphasized in the Magan Text:

“I copied these words down in my tongue and kept them faithfully these many years, and my own copy will go with me to the place where I will go..”

It is here that we find one of the most important practices of the Necronomicon Path-Meditation. Before we go ahead any further it is necessary for us to a clear understanding about what meditation really means as it has been often misunderstood in the Western World. The etymology of the term meditation is as follows:

“The word meditation comes from the Indo-European root med-, meaning “to measure.”[1][2] It entered English as meditation through the Latin meditatio, which originally indicated any type of physical or intellectual exercise, then later evolved into the more specific meaning “contemplation.”

 It is with this understanding of the etymology that we are able to look deeper into the term meditation. There are many ‘new age” groups that will emphasize that meditation is a practice wherein the practitioner goal is to empty the mind, but this is not the meaning of the term amongst serious student of the occult and Eastern mysticism, as found in Taoism and etc. In the East, meditation was always considered an activity. It was strongly believed that if a person left the mind empty it could allow negative forces to enter. It is with this understanding that meditative practices were formed, such s the Tea Ceremony and Chinese caligraphy. Thus, the Mad Arab’ made it a requirement  each Initiate copied the text over in their own hand, which is also a meditative exercise that is just as important as the GateWalking rituals of self-initiation.

Warlock Asylum’s Interview With Dan Harms!

Devil & Jesus

Warlock Asylum & Dan Harms Meet Eye To Eye (Art by Ong Chew Peng)

Greetings!

I would like to welcome everyone to the GateWalker’s Page. If this is your first time here, please review some of our previous articles first.

Well, this is certainly a new chapter in the Necronomicon Tradition. I am sure that many of our regular readers are more than familiar with the debates that have occurred between Dan Harms and myself. It has certainly been a pleasure to get to know Dan, not only as an opponent, but as a a comrade in some respects. I must say that although Dan and I have a “weird” friendship, I do respect his work in the Occult Community. We may differ on many aspects of the Necronomicon Tradition, but it is in hopes that something can be gained from our debates.

I must say that I have learned more from our debates than real conversation with other GateWalkers. It has allowed me to really dig through the canals of Ancient Mesopotamian history and really consider the origin of the layered material appearing in the Simon Necronomicon. It has also encouraged me to look more into the Lovecraft Mythos. This is something that every GateWalker should take the time to do.

There is something that is very intriguing about the The Dan Harms Machine but it is something that cannot be calculated. Dan is sincere in his work and is cautious enough to ward off any predator who seeks to betray a certain honesty when it comes to presenting the Greater Mysteries. Of course I must say that we still differ in our opinion of the Simon Necronomicon, but that is no mystery at this point! :) Well I had a chance to talk with Dan the other day via email. We have been corresponding and checking out what we have read while making some suggestions to each other.  I decided to Interview Dan after Venus Satanas made a comment that kind of ended a debate between Harms and myself. I will post Miss Satanas’ comment after this interview, but for now let us zoom in on this conversation between Dan and I:

 1)      Warlock Asylum: I am sure that our regular readers are more than familiar with the name Dan Harms, as well as, many people in the Occult Community, but in your own words Dan, Can you tell us something about yourself and maybe fill us in on some of your accomplishments?

Dan Harms:  I typically keep these short, so I’ll just say I’m the author of The Cthulhu Mythos Encyclopedia and The Necronomicon Files.  I also write at the blog Papers Falling from an Attic Window on grimoires, the occult, role-playing, Lovecraft, and whatever else I’m in the mood to discuss.  I’m a college librarian in my “other” life.

2) Warlock Asylum: What inspired you to become a writer? What sparked your interest in H. P. Lovecraft?

Dan Harms:  They actually happened in reverse order.  I came across Lovecraft via the Call of Cthulhu role-playing game in middle school, and I was struck by the man’s vision and the pantheon he created, or was attributed to him.  I started to read other Mythos authors, and then I created a file on an old word processing program on the various monsters and books I was encountering.  My intent was never to be a writer; I just wrote, and wrote, and had people encourage me to write, and I ended up with a book.

3)   Warlock Asylum: Many people associate the name “Dan Harms” with the Necronomicon Files, as it is seen all across the internet, what was your intent and approach in writing the book?

Dam Harms:  At the time John and I wrote the book, there wasn’t any single good reference work on the topic of the various Necronomicon hoaxes that were appearing.  Plus, the increased use of the Internet meant that more misinformation about the book was circulating than ever before.  So we set out to document what was out there, being as thorough as possible in terms of covering texts and different perspectives.  We also wanted to be entertaining, so there’s some humor in there.  Some people were offended by that, but it was there for a reason.  There was also not much of a GateWalking community at the time, though we did review a few books supposed to work with the Necronomicon therein.

4)  Warlock Asylum:  Your essays on Lovecraft, the occult, and various other writings have sparked some controversy as to your spiritual path. Some have even accused you of being a member of the O.T.O, How do you normally go about describing your “spiritual path?”

Dan Harms:  First, the “some” who’ve accused me of OTO membership is actually just you.  If there’s someone else, please let me know. I normally don’t describe my spiritual path, for a few different reasons.  One major one is that I’ve seen just how blinkered people can be when it comes to arguments they don’t agree with.  I could be anything from an atheist to a Rastafarian to – gasp! – a Gatewalker, and people would see it as an excuse to disregard what I say.  If I don’t tell them what I believe, they don’t have that excuse, or they have to invent some spirituality with which to attack me, which is often quite amusing and ends up making them look bad.

5)  Warlock Asylum: It seems that a few practitioners of the Simon Necronomicon have become more vocal over the past couple of years; Does this spark some concern on your end?

Dan Harms:  I have actually encouraged Gatewalkers to make their faith more public from time to time, so it’d be odd for me to be concerned about it. If people have something valid to say about their spirituality, then they can say it so the world can hear.  If they have nothing valid to say, they’ll reveal that.  The great benefit of the Internet is that it makes it much easier to find the stupid people.  So, no matter who speaks and their level of commitment, we all benefit.

6)  Warlock Asylum: Over the past couple of years, Dan and I, have had quite a few debates. In your own words Dan; what insights have you gained from these debates if any?

Dan Harms:  Overall, they have been useful, as they’ve meant that, from time to time, I have to re-engage with the source material on Mesopotamian religion, Lovecraft, or other topics.  I do wish that you’d attempt to engage with it in a similar manner, and that is a disappointment.

7)   Warlock Asylum: What advice would you give Warlock Asylum, or any other practitioner of the Simon Necronomicon who chooses this tome as a spiritual path?

Dan Harms:   Well, you asked. First, understand that what you’re practicing is an amalgam of ceremonial magic, Sumerian ritual, pagan sensibilities, and pulp fiction assembled in the mid-Seventies, likely with a profit motive on the part of one or more of the main participants, and with an origin story that’s changed over time.  There is absolutely nothing wrong with practicing such a spiritual path and finding personal satisfaction or growth through it.

Where GateWalkers get into trouble is when they assume that, because the book is impressive or they’re getting results, they can use the book as a source on Mesopotamian religion or Lovecraft, or decide that Simon is a holy prophet, or declare that I must be the devil, or proclaim themselves to be religiously persecuted because someone disagrees with them on the Internet.  Some people will never respect GateWalkers because of their system, but I think they lose much of their support through trying to expound on areas where they don’t have expertise or trying to blow disagreements into tales of deep personal agony.  Of course, developing expertise in those areas and then talking about them deserves respect, and anyone who’s lost family/friends/a home/a job because of their faith deserves sympathy.

Don’t be lazy.  There have been a number of times that I’ve asked various GateWalkers to read a book, or write an essay, or walk to their local library.  It’s amazing how these mighty wizards who can stare the Ancient Ones in the faces and undergo the most arduous initiation processes suddenly find something better to do when someone makes a suggestion that might give them greater understanding or allow them to reach more people.  I don’t expect them to do something just because I suggest it, but when it gets to the point where I feel I have to edit Wikipedia to reflect the practitioner’s perspective, I start to wonder where these GateWalkers are.

Now, if those individuals are so devoted to spirituality that they don’t want to engage with the outside world, that’s fine.  Nonetheless, that’s not the case for most GateWalkers I’ve met.  They claim that they’re horribly misunderstood and looked down upon, and yet they never do anything to challenge those impressions.  Either ignore your critics or engage with them by creating something of worth and value.  Caring about what they say and not doing anything about it is either passive aggressive or an attempt to play the victim.

That’s not to say that there isn’t great potential out there – I’d cite Warlock Asylum and Ashnook as intelligent individuals who could probably turn out some impressive work that would give GateWalking more respectability, if they turned up matters a notch and didn’t get distracted by some of the concerns I’ve raised above.

Warlock Asylum:  I would like to sincerely thank Dan Harms and The Dan Harms Machine for taking the time and agreeing on this Interview. One thing that you can say about Dan, whether you like him or hate him, is that he is a living legend, and his work as a writer has been priceless to the Occult Community, even in spite of the debatablilty of his observations. I think this is a very important chapter in the Necronomicon Tradition that cannot be overlooked even by those who are not involved. I would like to close this Chapter of Necronomicon History with a comment that Venus Satanas made during a debate between Dan Harms and Warlock Asylum. The comment appears  under the article The Simon Necronomicon: A Spiritual Martial Art and can be read in its entirety by clicking on the said link:

“In posting on both of your blogs and reading them for quite some time, I have seen that you are not arguing simply for argument’s sake. that
many things between you have been revealed and understood between you both. I did not mean to cause trouble, nor are your discussions with Dan any of my business, nor is it my place to judge either of you for your beliefs. Regardless, as an observer these things fascinate me and I am always interested in learning about new and unusual methods of magic that aren’t readily
accepted in mainstream occult.”

The Anunnaki

Greetings!

I would like to welcome everyone to the GateWalker’s Info Page. I decided that we would begin providing some definition to some of the terms that appear in the Simon Necronomicon..

“And around thee shall appear the Flame, like Lightning flashing in all directions, and all things will appear amid thunders, and from the Cavities of the Earth will leap forth the ANNUNNAKI, Dog-Faced, and thou shalt bring them down.”

The Mad Arab here refers to the “ANNUNNAKI” as being Dog-Faced. Who were the ANNUNNAKI?

The term “ANNUNNAKI.” as it appears in the Simon Necronomicon, derives form the term anunnaki. Wikipedia offers us this perspective:

“The Anunnaki (also transcribed as: Anunnaku, Ananaki and other variations) are a group of Sumerian, Akkadian and Babylonian deities. The name is variously written “da-nuna”, “da-nuna-ke4-ne”, or “da-nun-na”, meaning something to the effect of ‘those of royal blood’[1] or ‘princely offspring’.[2]

Anunnaki was a collective term for deities in general, especially those who were not otherwise named. Dr. Jeremy Black and Dr. Anthony Green write that the word eventually suggested the deities of earth and the underworld after the term Igigi was used more to refer to the heavenly deities.[2]

The Anunnaki appear in the Babylonian creation myth, Enuma Elish. In the late version magnifying Marduk, after the creation of mankind, Marduk divides the Anunnaki and assigns them to their proper stations, three hundred in heaven, three hundred on the earth. In gratitude, the Anunnaki, the “Great Gods”, built Esagila, the splendid: “They raised high the head of Esagila equaling Apsu. Having built a stage-tower as high as Apsu, they set up in it an abode for Marduk, Enlil, Ea.” Then they built their own shrines.

According to later Babylonian myth, the Anunnaki were the children of Anu and Ki, brother and sister gods, themselves the children of Anshar and Kishar (Skypivot and Earthpivot, the Celestial poles), who in turn were the children of Lahamu and Lahmu (“the muddy ones”), names given to the gatekeepers of the Abzu temple at Eridu, the site at which the creation was thought to have occurred. Finally, Lahamu and Lahmu were the children of Tiamat and Abzu.”

Wikipedia gives us a pretty good definition of the term, but it still doesn’t give us a deeper meaning as too why the Mad Arab refers to them as being “Dog-Faced?” it seems more than probable that when we look at some of the deeper history regarding the Anunnaki we can get a clearer understanding.

The Anunnaki were children of Anu. They were also the judges of the seven judges of the netherworld, who sat before the throne of Queen Ereshkigal. They are associated with the Ursa Major, which reassures us that the Walking Process occurs in the Underworld. It seems that there is some sort of relationship with the Sirius Star, also known as the “Dog Star,” and the times that the Anunnaki open up to judge the Earth. An interesting observation is made by Mark Amaru Pinkham, in his book entitled; The Return of the Serpents of Wisdom. On pages 43-44 Pinkham states:

“According to certain Sumerian texts, as well as Greek translations of the Middle Eastern history anciently recorded by the Babylonian initiate Berosus, Enki or “Oannes,” whose symbol was a goat-fish, arrived in Mesopotamia with his entourage,the Anunnaki (also called the “repulsive” or “dragon-faced Annedoti” by Greek translators), at four different times, and each  time taught the native people many of the mundane and spiritual arts. Their visits were 30,000 years apart, an interval which is conspicuously close to 26,000 years, the duration of one Procession of Equinoxes, thus implying that the purpose of each arrival by Enki and his Serpent followers was to initiate a new cycle of time by infusing the ancient Mesopotamian population with a fresh outpouring of culture and wisdom….While some waves of Anunnaki probably came from Sirius, some Sumerian texts seem to imply that at least one delegation came  from Atlantis…..atlantis is remembered in the early Sumerian scriptures as NI-DUK-KI..”

This is an interesting observation, yet it does emphasis the vital role that the Anunnaki play in our Initiation. We will discuss this more in our next article; The Anunnaki Part 2.  Below are some dipictions of the Anunnaki:

Shinto Religion Older Than Babylonian Religion!

Greetings!

I would like to welcome everyone here to the Simon Necronomicon GateWalker’s Page. If this is your first time here, I do ask that you review some of our previous articles in our menu section first. This will help you to understand where we are in our current discussion.

I am sure this article will spark some controversy among people in the occult community. However, I am also aware that many people in the occult community are still trying to perfect themselves and the mystical arts that they use.

The origin of this article came from a recent observation that I made based on certain experiences in the GateWalking Community. Let me first state that until the Initiate completes the rites in the Urilla Text, they cannot wholly understand the Necronomicon Tradition. During the Sign of Leo 2009, a few GateWalkers who passed the preliminary rites of Walking the Seven Gates, plus the Gates of Ninhursag, Enki, Enlil, and Anu, were told to do the Invocation of the Ancient One, that appears in the opening pages of the Urilla Text, which is found on pages 184 through 185. This incantation is derived from The Rite of the Bornless One.  The purpose of this working is to complete the Sacred Marriage Rite, where the Initiate and the Watcher become one. It is a very serious Rite and can only effectively be performed after the 11 Gates have been Walked. I gave the assignment of this working to three of my students and an experienced GateWalker, as well as, myself. iImust say that the experience was extremely supernatural. All of us had experiences that were beyond the veils of the physical world. The second thing that I noticed is that all the Initiates involved in this rite had experienced an increase ability to access their astral powers and for the most part, the astral body ruled their physical being. I must say that throughout my observations, the Initiated who were involved in the working did not communicate to each other, as I was the link between them and they did not know each other, yet we were all experiencing the same things. There is one thing though that I found very strange. Most of the people who performed this rite somehow came into contact with deities indigenous to Japan. One Initiate began studying Japanese martial arts, Shugendo. I began with Ninjitsu, and etc. I also decided to get in tune with the Japan’s indigenous spiritual practices better known as Shintoism.

I recently began to wonder,  why after completing the Sacred Marriage Rite were many of the Initiates leaning towards the Japanese culture? This caused me to investigate certain theories that are presented throughout the world in regards to Sumeria.

Sumeria is described as the cradle of civilization and the civilization where it all began. Yet everyone must ask themselves is this really true? Let us first look at how the modern world discovered the Sumerian Civilization..

Although there is much that can be found about Sumeria today, the discovery of this civilization is  a recent one.  The first major excavations leading to the discovery of Sumeria were conducted (1842-1854) at Assyrian sites such as Nineveh, Dur Shamukin, and Calah by the French archaeologists Paul Emile Botta and Victor Place; the British archaeologists Sir Austin Henry Layard and Sir Henry C. Rawlinson and the Irish clergyman Edward Hincks made a study of the inscriptions, however, and discovered that some were in a non-Semitic language. In 1869 the French archaeologist, Julius Oppert suggested that the name Sumerian, from the royal title King of Sumer and Akkad, appearing in many inscriptions, be applied to the language.

Samuel Noah Kramer the infamous Sumerianologist, who was involved in the process of translating numerous Sumerian texts, often found many stories that were similar to Biblical mythologies. It was this principle that fueled the research into Ancient Mesopotamia, especially in regards to the Gilgamesh Epics, for the first time the modern world assumed that it had found references to support the Biblical flood account in the Legend of Utnapishtim.

How Sumeria was discovered in the modern world weighs heavily into our discussion about Sumeria as the first civilization on Earth. First, it is very important for the occultist to understand that most of the research and excavation that have been done are by followers of the three main Abrahamic faiths namely, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It is interesting to note that on a purely religious level, all adherents to these three different religions, religiously believe that the origin of man is in Ancient Mesopotamia. So I find it quite ironic that the same archaeologists who happen to be adherents to either one of these three religions have NOT presented anything different from what their scriptural fantasies have theorized. I must also remind the reader that during the time of the excavations that lead to the discovery of Sumeria, the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic Faiths were strongly followed by those that professed them, especially in Europe and America. What this boils down to is that what these archaeologists have discovered in the past century, is in support of Western religious thought. Therefore, the Initiate into the Greater Mysteries must do his own research with the help of his/her guides to piece together the history of the world. This is why you will notice how most discoveries will NOT go beyond the year 5,000 BCE, even though scientist have discovered human fossils dating tens of thousands of years ago in Africa. Discoveries such as this is swept underneath the rug since they conflict, or would upset the layman’s religious dedication, which in turn would affect their political dedication, and then cause a spirit of unrest. So while it is acknowledged that there are human fossils in Africa that are older that any Sumerian writing,  it is just swept underneath the rug so that Biblical theories stay in tact. What is also interesting is that the Yoruba Pantheon is identical to the Sumerian, even its creation story. If Sumerian Reconstructionists really want to re-piece the Sumerian Tradition, they must study the Yoruban system of spirituality, as well as , other indigenous system. This leads us to the discovery that the Shinto spiritual system is older than the Babylonian.

H.P. Lovecraft in his story The Call of Cthulhu describes a godlike being called Cthulhu who dwells in the Sunken City of R’lyeh R’lyeh “>that is located somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. The energies in the Urilla Text we are told by Simon are similar to Lovecraft’s R’lyeh Text. This may explain why the initiates who performed the Urilla Text working started to be drawn to forms of spirituality that were accustomed to people living in the area of the Pacific Ocean. Yet there is another point to make here in view of our topic, while Lovecraft’s location of the R’lyeh City may have been exaggerated,  he was correct in identifying a Sunken City that lies in the Pacific Ocean.

National Geographic News reported in September 2007 pyramid structures lying just below the waters of Japan at Yonaguni Jima.  The condition of this ancient city is said to have been caused by an earthquake over 2, 000 years ago. However, many researchers in the field claim that this “Sunken City” is anywhere from five to ten thousand years old. This presents  ”>quite a problem for our Jewish, Christian, and Islamic scholars who can’t get past their religious beliefs and show the truth about their archaeological discoveries. Here’s the problem: If  Sumeria is the first civilization on the face of this Earth and is dated only 5,000 years ago; How is it then that another civilization, found in Japan, was built at the same time Sumeria was found? Wouldn’t common sense dictate that it would take a few centuries to move from Sumeria to the region of Japan?

Earlier in our discussion we spoke about how archaeologists discovered another civilization that predated Babylon, Sumeria. See what I didn’t mention then was that these archaeologists knew about Babylon and were seeking to find further evidence of the Bible’s validity, yet the Bible doesn’t mention the Sumerians, but it does mention the ‘Sons of God’ taking the Daughters of Men.” So the idea of a “black-headed people” existing prior to Babylon was unknown to Western people. It was actually Samuel Noah Kramer who explored the Sumerian histories even further and thanks to him, we have the volumes of work that we do today. If it were up to the Christian and Islamic archaeologists, they would have just let the matter sit and sweep everything underneath the rug, which is actually what they did, until Kramer pursued the efforts to translate the text, since his beliefs  were more liberal than his religious upbringing. Yet deceit in the discovery of Japan’s antiquity is also being swept under the rug.  Leader of the stupidity pack is Robert Schoch who claims that the structures found off of Japan’s Coast are not man-made but natural. japaneseatlantis6japanese atlantisjapaneseatlantis3japaneseatlantis4

Just one look at these photos one can easily see that Doctor Schoch blew it, but once again this is what happens when you ask a ”Christian” mind to check ancient artifacts.  Let’s face it- as Pagans we are well aware that most of the history that originated among the Christian Nations is a lie. Columbus didn’t discover America, the Native Americans did, so why doesn’t this Christian Nation honor their history of coming to America? We teach our children that Gutenburg invented the printing press although China had used advance technologies for printing centuries before Gutenberg ever lived. Let’s face it Christian and Islamic Nations have a problem with accepting historical fact that honour indigenous people or differ from their religious belief. Interestingly, Samuel Noah Kramer was chased out of the Arab World due to what he discovered in the Sumerian writings and how it conflicted with Islamic beliefs. Samuel Noah Kramer is who the fictional character Indiana Jones is based on.

Pre-Sumerian Civilization

Samuel Noah Kramer asserts that the Sumerian people, who called themselves the “black-headed people,” were a Nomadic people who moved about. Where they came from is not really known-yet. However, many anthropologist are able to trace some of their roots to the Tamil people due to similarities in language. Yet this shows that the Sumerians probably traveled westwards after establishing colonies in  China, India, and etc, after leaving a collapsed civilization that was in the Pacific Ocean.  Interestingly, Japan holds that its country was founded by the Anu People. This reinforces some of the origins of true Japanese history. It is clear that Japan’s history exceeds its written history by thousands of years. The written history of Japan at about 400 BC, but this is not completely accurate either. It seems that there were some political struggles of  different ethnic peoples within “prehistoric” Japan. We know this to be the case because pottery has been unearthed  from the Joman Period which is dated about 14,000 years old. Thats about 10,000 years older than when archaeologists say the Sumerian Civilization started. We also know that there were internal struggles between different ethnic groups in Japan’s history because first Shogun Sakanouye Tamura Maro was a Black man, which means that there was also an African presence prior to Japan’s modern history.  It seems that Japan may have been a safe haven for persecuted  ”>religious groups such as the Taoists, and different forms of African divination, as well as, Buddhism. Although, Buddhism originated in India and was brought to China then and then Japan.there are certain aspects of Buddhism and Taoism that may have originated in China, but are only preserved in Japan, such as the Tea Ceremony. It is in consideration of all these facts that we can ascertain that the Shinto Religion is one of the oldest in the world if not the oldest. Written history may differ, but it does stand to reason that since there was a culture that existed in Japan that is thousands of years older than the Mesopotamian culture, it must also be a correct assumption that this same culture had a system of spirituality, which is apparently Shinto. This is why there is no accredited founder of the Shinto Religion, or a said Shinto scripture. The origin of this religion and its beginning were evidently wiped out during various stages of religious persecution, or held in secret among the people indigenous to Japan. However, there is one more cause that plays a vital role in our identification of Shintoism as the oldest religion in the world and that is a comparative analysis of the Shinto Kami with the Sumerian and Babylonian deities.

It is widely known that in prehistoric times Mother-Son worship flourished throughout the ancient world. Major deities were honored as feminine and the minor deities were depicted as male. This is the most ancient concept of religious worship. Keeping this in mind we can appreciate that the Shinto religion is the purest form of prehistoric religion because Amaterasu Omikami is one of the very few solar deities that is represented as a goddess. This is a very important aspect that occultist should be aware of. In prehistoric times, when the major deities were venerated as women, they were also honored as mothers. This is very important to remember. The founders of the planet Earth recognized that the planets are nourished by the Sun’s energy in the same way a baby is nourished by its mother’s milk.The rotation of the planets around the Sun is simulated even among communal insects where the “queen” is the life-giver of all that is living. The Sun is also the provider of life-giving energy that supports all life on Earth. In previous posts we have discussed that Ishtar is a planetary form of Tiamat. Please review our article 2012 and The Simon Necronomicon. It is here that we also discovered that the word Ishtar finds its origin in the word star. This also reveals to us that during the era of Mother-Sun worship, stars, or suns, were deified as feminine. This is explained in the Babylonian Epic of  Creation, also known as the Enuma Elish. During the next part of our discussion we will be using the Simon Necronomicon’s version of this creation epic. For more information please review our article The Simon necronomicon\’s Version of the Enuma Elish.

Before we begin, I must state that the Enuma Elish can be interpreted in many ways, on an astrological level, changes in spiritual conciousness amongst mankind, and etc.

“When on High the Heavens had not been named,  the Earth had not been named, and Naught existed but the Seas of Absu, The Ancient One, And MUMMU Tiamat, the Ancient One..”

It is interesting that ABSU has been defined as the fresh waters and Tiamat as the salt waters. The ancient people may have looked upon Tiamat as the “salt waters” because it represented the solar aspect while life-giving is also chaotic, and stars cannot be lived on with fleshly bodies. Absu, would then represent the fresh waters or absorbing matter upon which life could grow. In this aspect we can also not that Tiamat would correspond to the Shinto Creator Goddess SU, the source of all things. There is another interesting passage that appears in the Magan Text.

If we look though the first section of the Magan Text we discover that Tiamat is described as the “Queen of the Ghouls.” This further emphasizes Tiamat as a fiery solar force. How so? The term \”ghoul\” is Arabic in origin. For those of you who are familiar with the Batman movies, Raj Al Ghul, would fit the description of a “ghoul” sometimes known as the Jinn. The Jinn are described as a class of living beings that exist in a parallel world that predates that of mankind. They have superhuman power and can appear in various form sometimes resembling snakes, vultures, or tall black men in white garb. it is believed by Muslims that the Jinn were created by Allah from ’smokeless fire.’ They are also known as the fiery ones. Keeping this all in mind, if Tiamat is described as the “Queen of the Ghouls”  in the Magan Text, then it can also be said that she is the “Queen of the fiery Ones.” This means that Tiamat is a fiery source, or a star, Ishtar. Evidently the Race of Watchers are the Jinn, also known to modern man as the GateWalker with a fully developed astral or starry body.

Now if it is believed that our Sun was once a part of the Big Dipper constellation, as mentioned in Gates of the Necronomicon,then Marduk throwing Tiamat into the abyss takes on a new meaning. Yet it would also mean that when Tiamat rises to the stars the world will be one, or consumed by fire. this is something that modern science is now learning.

It is amazing that we have learned a new development in the Necronomicon Tradition and have confirmed some of Lovecraft’s fiction as reality. Ishtar (Venus) is the only planet that rotates clockwise but orbits the Sun counterclockwise. GateWalkers follow the same practice by Walking around the Gate of Initiation clockwise and Walking through the Zodiac, or Gate by Gate, in a pattern that is reverse the direction to that of the Sun. Therefore, we are all Initiated under the banner of Ishtar/Inanna, and by such we are able to draw from the Sun, our Mother what mankind  hasn’t.

The Mother-Son worship in preserved in the Shinto Religion. It appears that the Sumerians were also worshippers of the Great Mother Tiamat, as the Egyptians were when Sehkmet was the Sun Goddess. What I find interesting is that during the Babylonian Period the Sun became associated with Male deities and the Catholic Church has infiltrated every country, that has hosted this sort of religious philosophy with the exception of China. The Biblical book of Revelation tell its adherents to get out of Babylon the Great! This is a reminder to the children of the Sun Goddess not engage in Solar-Phallic worship. All the religions that descended from Babylon have made this association. The religions that associate the Sun with the Goddess predate Babylon, which proves that the Shinto Religion and the culture that it promotes is older than Mesopotamia. In conclusion I would like to quote the words that appear in the Magan Text, as found in the Simon Necronomicon.

“The verses here that follow come from the secret texts of a cult which is all that is left of the Old Path that existed before Babylon was built..”

Politicians Getting Everyone Ready For The Ancient Ones Return

The Mad Arab states the following in the Simon Necronomicon:

“Let all who read this book be warned thereby that the habitation of men are seen and surveyed by that Ancient Race of gods and demons from a time before time, and that they seek revenge for that forgotten battle that took place somewhere in the Cosmos and rent the Worlds in the days before the creation of Man, when the Elder Gods walked the Spaces, the race of MARDUK, as he is known to the Chaldeans, and of ENKI our MASTER, the Lord of Magicians.

Know, then, that I have trod all the Zones of the Gods, and also the places of the Azonei, and have descended unto the foul places of Death and Eternal Thirst, which may be reached through the Gate of GANZIR, which was built in UR, in the days before Babylon was.

Know, too, that I have spoken with all manner of spirit and daemon, whose names are no longer known in the societies of Man, or were never known. And the seals of some of these are writ herein; yet others I must take with me when I leave you. ANU have mercy on my soul!

I have seen the Unknown Lands, that no map has ever charted. I have lived in the deserts and the wastelands, and spoken with demons and the souls of slaughtered men, and of women who have dies in childbirth, victims of the she-fiend LAMMASHTA.

I have traveled beneath the Seas, in search of the Palace of Our Master, and found the stone of monuments of vanquished civilisations, and deciphered the writings of some of these; while still others remain mysteries to any man who lives. And these civilisations were destroyed because of the knowledge contained in this book.

I have traveled among the stars, and trembled before the Gods. I have, at last, found the formulae by which I passed the Gate ARZIR, and passed into the forbidden realms of the foul IGIGI.”
