What's your favorite band, sir?

the most fully explained digestivve storey on archons ive seen

​@@johnnyisdeadI mostly listen to baroque and black metal. Most listened to varies. Been on a dark synth and chip tune bender recently.

@@TheEsotericaChannel Are you hip to Igorrr (and associated projects Corpo Mente, Oxxo Xoox, Whourkr, etc.)?

@@TheEsotericaChannel Baroque + black metal = gnostic? Or am I missing something?

I firmly believe that these stories originate from a hierarchy of extraterrestrial life.

@@360addict70 Same, only not so firm yet, as I haven't dove into the literature. I always consider the extraterrestrial angle when historical topics are presented. The biblical stories clearly state certain aspects of it, but books like Enoch, which were removed from the Nicaean-scrubbed modernized version, indicate the likelihood in more detail. I've been connecting dots, and it definitely corroborates the plausibility of such a reality.

@@Truth_Hurts_Bad To me it sounds like we're just a Minecraft world to beings that live forever and want to create and nurture life as their religion (professional gamer Gods). Then you got the beings that try the same thing but keep failing, get salty, and secretly try to halt the progress of life in subtle ways that snowball into self destruction (trash at the game troll Gods).

i agree thanks for educating me more so

Absolutely I couldn't sub fast enough.

they fanfic'd the old testament genesis story

@@madProgenitorDeity and WH40k Fanfic’d Rome, the cycle continues

@@lunarlightasmr4660 I mean, the gnostics fanfic'd the genesis story so that the snake was the good guy

I'm a 40k junkie.

@@madProgenitorDeity I mean even in the canon version of Genesis, The Serpent was the only one telling the truth. Think about it. What is Yahweh`s standard for truth vs. deception in The Bible?" Who omitteth but one single truth lieth absolute."What did he tell Adam and Eve in the garden. "On that day ye eat of the tree, ye shall surely die." If Yahweh had spoken more carefully, perhaps there could be benefit of the doubt but The Bible repeatedly stresses the importance of "Exact words"!If he said, "Ye will eventually die", or "Ye will be able to die " that would be accurate but instead he just said "Ye will surely die" which was an exaggeration and made it seem as though it might happen at any moment or right after they disobeyed. What did the snake say?" Ye shall not surely die for God knoweth in the instant thou tasteth of the fruit of the tree, ye will be as gods, knowing good from evil." And for that, the couple who I remind you would not have known on an ethical level why they should have obeyed God`s instruction if they had not first disobeyed were thrown out of paradise and their bloodline cursed to be rapists, cannibals and murderers which is yet another example of Yahweh disregarding his own Commandments where they inconvenience him! Not only that, he forced the snake to crawl on its belly and eat dust all its days, this is supernatural animal abuse!Taking away the snake`s voice so it could no longer tempt humans was understandable, however Yahweh`s punishment of The Serpent was an unjustified act of animal cruelty!

Yes!!

Ye it's not a story you want to live in, but it's not completely hopeless like Warhammer 40k or HP Lovecraft type stuff.

​@@agnoopinniI think it makes fighting for the good even more worth it. Instead of staving off evil, you actively try to improve an already evil world.

It is explained. Man sinned, therefore we fell. Suffering is out punishment.

"Power Overwhelming"

You must combine two lesser beings to create one archon

watch out for that zerg rush

I just remembered they're called templars

YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADITONAL PYLONS TO PLACE YOUR FLEET BACON.

I find it very peculiar that you refer to yourself as "an LGBT person". Which one is it? You make it sound like the ideological adherence that it also is, like when someone says they're a Democrat, with capital D, referring to the political party. And/or maybe implying that it can change any time?

im glad you can finally heal from such things. God bless(i dont mean the demurge)

The lgbt thing is an odd hang up to be honest. Odd to bring up something so silly in relation to the topic of divine beings and eternal existence. Synthesize your sexual energies and become who you are without a strict adherence to a contemporary socio-political cult. The lgbt thing is just a distraction, like my obsession with pro wrestling figurines. Defining yourself by it is very unsettling to me. I hope your life is amazing, but that is solely up to you and not to anyone else. You got this bro!! Let’s do it!

The Archons are the planets

Freud was a big fabulator

👏🏼 all of what mankind creates is metaphor and allegory for our experience. As within, so without. We are storytellers and we tell story to pass on wisdom and lessons learned. Humans also tell stories as a means to control narratives and situations. Be careful little ears what you hear 🌀

Or could be some cool fantasy stories that folks started to take a bit too seriously. I mean, that has happened repeatedly in relatively modern times. Still happening

@@so_what_else_is_newsigmon?

aka the daily news.

That being even close to true, I find it most ironic that Avalokitasvara would have chose the ability to sense it all until the last is emancipated rather than just accepting the demonic award of emancipation and exiting this realm. At least this is my understanding of this bodhisattva and how that story integrates into a gnostic perspective.

@@BlitZkrieG988 I find etymology stimulating, so yet I did know that. What I didn't know is why the holy sea comitted genocide on the Cathars for the crime of having a different opinion about this world.

​@@BlitZkrieG988 All "gods" are evil. He will make you go back down here through any means possible like he did me and so many others. Only if you can resist him will he allow you to go, or try to get you on his side. Here's my only warning : when you die and see a tunnel of light, go the other way. Or go on another ride on Earth, and be cattle again for possibly hundreds of years more ... as you see fit.

@@BlitZkrieG988 It is a tempting road that I find myself drawn too quite often, thinking the more knowledge I have the better equipped I will be. But remember the search for knowledge is far from the search for God. Ecclesiastes 1 says : 16 I said to myself, “Look, I have increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me; I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind. 18 For with much wisdom comes much sorrow; the more knowledge, the more grief.” When I am able to step from this pull and draw for knowledge and understanding I see it’s effect on me. I think it’s important to have balance and realize the part we play in Creation

I wonder if Gurdjieff Work was inspiration for John Carpenter's "They Live" film. Also the disfigured effigy is most likely similar to the indigenous (American) death ritual of burning a body face down so it's soul will not be able to reincarnate back into this world.

@@joshsmith2629 agree , brilliant comment

Actually absinthe? With wormwood? Just interested in what it's like. I've had it in America and it's just strong black licorice booze.

Gnosticism is deeply human. It finds its way into all sorts of stories. Often by accident.

Listen, you are a part of that invisible hand. Your literally speaking the language they speak.

I've been knowing about the archons (I refuse to capitalize that word) did a couple of decades.. And I've been playing genshin for a couple of years now. It was off putting and a bit concerning for me to find that in this new game that I was enjoying very much, and planning on continuing to play for a long time still, and a game that already had a HUGE following and influence on a wide range of people, was using the terms God's and archons interchangeably! And it still does bother me... but truly, this is no different or worse than the LOOOOONG history of pre-existing, observable machinations throughout our entire recorded history... It's just less veiled and easier to directly see the connection and intent of the creators of the game to associate the divine with the distorted, negative, 'evil' called archons. Oh well... Still a great game!

I found it.

​@@aarongreenz given that the archons in genshin also all have solomonic names i think it's likely hinting at celestia being the true evil of the game

Yes I have

I’m a genshin player but I didn’t come here to be obnoxious lol

Why do I hear chanting...? It sounds like... yes... "One of us. One of us."

Google loves you

Read about the Cathars. They are gnostics and we're genocided by pope innocent. Yes he called himself that. They fought back but his mercenary knights eventually won. The people cried when the gnostic were lead to the pyres. But the Cathars sang. They were not even afraid of the worst way to die. May God bless them forever!

When Lovecraft isn't just ripping off Arthur Machen he's mostly just writing a materialist atheist parody of later American Theosophy, which always claimed gnostic influence. Lovecraft's knowledge of Theosophy was entirely second hand through his one Theosophist friend and their knowledge of gnosticism was pretty shallow but the defining lack of any higher non-material reality in Lovecraft applies just as much a nihilistic parody of gnosticism as of Theosophy. Ironically the geo-political demonology of Black Sabbath's War Pigs is closer to St. Paul's non-distheistic anti-Roman archonolgy (2 corinthians 4) which Gnosticism is kind of a de-politicised inner spiritual reworking of. Calling one branch of Christianity more metal than any other is a diservice to the variety of metaphors and interpretations applied in Heavy Metal.

rofl I had not considered Lovecraft's theology as a parody of Theosophy but that sounds spot on... he was certainly bright enough to peg Blavatsky for a fraud although I can't find any quotes from him ever directly referencing Theosophy or Blavatsky @@AC-dk4fp

@@TheEsotericaChannel I feel you, I truly do. All seems to be moving in a direction tinged with suffering, turmoil, and deep-cut internal pondering.

Have you played the game ?

@@midnightblue3285 Yeah, a little bit back in the 90s. They also released a MTG-style trading card game that I played a bit more of. Still have the cards for most of the Archons :-).

​@@DanielRisberg Excellent game - looked through the comments - glad to see you'd mentioned it. The '90s RPG was great. We enjoyed it a lot. It's been updated several times, but now the full colour (since 2018) edition is called Kult: Divinity Lost from Helmgast. This is a brilliant version and certainly worth checking out - if people like getting together and imagining stories with friends, whilst pretending you're someone else in a desperate world full of body horror, serial killers, demonic overlords and occasionally rolling ten-sided dice (in the real world) to find out if things go well or get worse.

There is an entire tabletop RPG based on Gnosticism, called “KULT: Divinity Lost”. I never actually played it but the art in the rulebook is great.

I thought the Dead Sea scrolls were taken out of the Christian teachings and put in a cave ?

They will be unearthed and used by Seele and Nerv in the future.@@Chris-ex5ed

@@Chris-ex5ed You're not wrong, in the sense that the Gnostics were Christians. They were just kinda different, too.

Yes but it's a religion and philosophy that deserves more respect. I dont think anyone would ever say something similar about Islam or Christianity for example.
