HELIOS AND DIONYSOS SHARED THE GREAT SHRINE OF DELPHI GREECE. BOTH OF THEIR

RITES WERE OBSERVED THERE. HELIOS WAS DEPICTED ON ONE SIDE OF THE SHRINE, AND

DIONYSOS ON THE OTHER. DIONYSOS WAS ASSOCIATED WITH BOTH THE SHIVA-LINGA LIKE

'AXIS MUNDI' STONE, AND THE WORLD-HOLDING SERPENT UNDER THE SHRINE.

 

HELIOS-DIONYSOS WAS THE SAME DEITY IN TWO CO-ETERNAL PERSONS. THEY ALSO HAD A

CO-ETERNAL THIRD PERSON, THEIR ALL-PERVASIVE SPIRIT, WHO WAS CALLED ATUM OR ATEN

(ATMAN) IN EGYPT. THE HELIOPOLITAN DOCTRINES OF THE ATOMOS (INDIVISIBLE

ULTIMATE ENTITY), ONTOS (BEING) AND AUTOS (THE SELF) ARE ALL RELATED TO THE

ATMAN ALL-PERVASIVE FORM OF HELIOS-DIONYSOS IN THE HEART OF ALL BEINGS.

 

HELIOS-DIONYSOS-ATUM IS THE HISTORICAL TRINITY OF CATHOLIC APOSTOLIC

CHRISTIANITY, AND THE KRISHNA-BALARAMA-PARAMATMA OF THE VAISHNAVAS. DEVOTION TO

HELIOS AND RHODA ON THE ISLE OF RHODES IS ATTESTED AT THE DAWN OF THE HISTORIC

PERIOD. RHODES WAS PART OF THE EARLIEST MINOAN LEAGUES. THIS MEANS THAT THE

WORSHIP OF RHODA-HELIOS KOUROS ON RHODES DATES FROM AT LEAST 3000 BC.
