[Guest guest]

HARE KRISHNA ! SRI SRI GURU AND GAURANGA KI JAYA !

JESU KI JAYA !

 

DEAREST VRIN, FAMILY AND FRIENDS,

 

MERRY CHRIST MASS !

 

SEE BELOW FOR THIS VERY IMPORTANT ARTICLE, WHICH WAS JUST FOUND BY

ERIC WIJNANTS ON THE INTERNET. HERE IS MY COMMENT TO HIM.

 

EXCELLENT ! THANK YOU VEEEERY MUCH ! ONCE AGAIN A CONFIRMATION OF

WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG. ASCLEPIUS WAS THE SON OF HELIOS

OF RHODES. HIS CULT CENTER ON KOS AND THE NUMEROUS VARIETY OF MYTHS

ALL ATTESTED TO HIS DIVINE PARENTAGE BY HELIOS-APOLLO. WHEN IN THE

CLASSICAL AGE, THE EXTREMELY ANCIENT CULT OF HELIOS-APOLLO HAD

ALREADY BECOME CORRUPTED, THE CULT OF HIS SON, ASCLEPIUS, BECAME A

REFUGE FOR THE MORE TRADITIONAL GREEK MONOTHEISTS LIKE SOCRATES.

AMONG THE GREEK MONOTHEISTS, THE OLD HELIOPOLITAN TRADITIONS WERE

KEPT ALIVE IN THE CULT OF ASCLEPIUS, AS THESE WERE ALSO KEPT VITAL

AMONG THE WORSHIPERS OF SERAPIS IN EGYPT. THUS WE NATURALLY SEE THAT

A RHODIAN HELIOPOLITAN FESTIVAL DATE IS ASSOCIATED WITH ASCLEPIUS-

CHRIST.

 

SO ONCE AGAIN THE FACTS SHOW THE CONTINUITY OF THE HELIOS-ASCLEPIUS

TRADITION IN CATHOLICISM.

 

IF PEOPLE WOULD ONLY LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE WITHOUT PREJUDICE, THEY

WOULD SEE THAT THE CATHOLIC RITES WERE EACH A REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF

THE GREAT PHYSICIAN SAVIOR TRADITION, PREVIOUSLY ASSOCIATED WITH

GREAT INTERRACIAL HELIOPOLITAN ASYLA FEDERATIONS, LIKE THOSE OF

CRETE, HELIOPOLIS, THEBES, RHODES, DELOS, DELPHI, TYRE, JERUSALEM,

AND ALEXANDRIA ETC.

 

*******

TO VAISHNAVAS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ALL THIS IS THAT THE WORSHIP OF

HELIOS KOUROS AND RHODA ON RHODES WAS THE MEDITERRANEAN CENTER OF

RADHA-KRISHNA AND BALARAMA WORSHIP. ASCLEPIUS, COME IN THE FLESH AS

JESUS CHRIST, WAS THE WORLD-SAVING INCARNATION SON LILA OF THIS

RHODIAN DEITY HELIOS / ELI-YAHU (JEWISH) AND HERU-ASU IN EGYPT. HERU-

ASU WAS / IS HARI -VASU DEVA, KRISHNA-VISHNU.

 

 

PAX AND PREMA TO YOU ALL ON THE FESTIVAL OF CHRIST MASS !

Archeologists say they have traced the origins of the first Christmas

to be celebrated on 25 December, 300 years before the birth of

Christ. The original event marked the consecration of the ancient

world's largest sun god statue, the 34m tall, 200 ton Colossus of

Rhodes.

It has long been known that 25 December was not the real date of

Christ's birth and that the decision to turn it into Jesus's birthday

was made by Constantine, the Roman Emperor, in the early 4th century

AD. But experts believe the origins of that decision go back to 283

BC, when, in Rhodes, the winter solstice occurred at about sunrise on

25 December.

The event was preserved by academics on Rhodes or in Alexandria, and

seems to have been passed to Caesar by the Hellenistic Egyptian

scientists, who advised him on his calendrical reforms.

The date was chosen because the emperor seems to have believed that

the Roman sun god and Christ were virtually one and the same, and the

sun's birthday had been decreed as 25 December some 50 years earlier

by one of Constantine's predecessors, the Emperor Aurelian. He, in

turn, seems to have chosen 25 December because, ever since Julius

Caesar's calendar reforms of 46 BC, that date had been fixed as the

official winter solstice, even though the real date for the solstice

in Caesar's time was 23 December.

Dr Alaric Watson, one of the British historians involved in the

current research and author of the major book on the period, Aurelian

and the Third Century, said: "Constantine's choice of 25 December as

the day on which to celebrate the birth of his divine patron, Christ,

must be viewed in terms of the tradition on which Aurelian had drawn

and which may well have originated in the celebration of the winter

solstice at Rhodes some six centuries earlier.

"Constantine clearly saw his divine patron, initially Sol Invictus

but later Christ, in much the same way as Aurelian had done. The

imagery of Christ, like that of the ruler cults of the Hellenistic

and Roman worlds, owed much to solar theology."
