The Dragon's fiery breath symbolised the pneuma, the spirit of the diving which coalesced into the Torah or cosmic law that the Dr kings delivered as their pronouncements in the affairs o. image of the Dragon of myth and legend is complete, as a set or symboli attributes belonging to an ancient magical race of praeter-natural beings, the vampyr overlords or Fairy overkings.
Although humanoid, Dragons were not Homo Sapiens but decended from the far older Elven race, sometimes called in literature the Elda or Eldar. This was probably suggested or derived from the name of an ancient queen and her ancient, former habitation in Mesopotamia and possibly intended, in its attribution as a simile for Elder perhaps, to imply some form of racial pri-mogeniture.
Reflected upon within the context of early Sumerian historical records, such a synonym would indeed seem to be apposite, inasmuch as this ancient and mysterious people claimed that the Dragons, with Queen Hawah Elda's assistance, created mankind.
Homo Sapiens?
From the OED (Oxford English Dictionary, used often as a reference in this work), we learn that the prefix homo has two meanings. There is the Latin meaning (from whence comes "man"), and the Greek meaning, as in homo-genous, which means "common", "the same" or "the same as", "aver-age", "mediocre".
The word sapiens is itself derived from the Latin word "sapienta" mean-ing understanding. However it was also a word which was used in a solely pejorative and derogatory context from as far back as the Middle English period explicitly in the sense of artful, deceitful, contrived or would-be wisdom; meaning sophistry or low cunning and hypocrisy. From sapienta we derive the slang derogative sap, which has been used throughout the English-speaking world to taunt idiots and fools.
Hereto, jocularly, in contemporary currency the phrase homo sapiens could, therefore, define a common, undistinguished hominid species. Its members would act in the same manner and think the same self-deluding thoughts, relating to each other through a veil of deception, within a limited field of conscious responses and conditioned reflexes, rather like sheep.
Taken in relation to what man has done to the planet and to his fellow creatures, the author doesn't think that this is an unwarranted or unsubstanti-ated attack, but a justifiable observation. Man aptly named himself: homo = mediocre + sapiens = cunning.
Therefore man could be defined by the Oxford English Dictionary, the recognised authority on, and arbiter of the English language, as being uniquely,thoroughly stupid and dim-witted, and his species description has incorpo-rated within it a clear indication that this condition is genetically inherited. Nurture seems unable to ameliorate what nature has here ordained.
Here the idealist might argue that a eugenic solution, mediated through genetic engineering could produce a more passive, thoughtful population by weeding out the stupid gene and replacing it with something that would make us all less wasteful, aggressive and acquisitive.
Take a look around you, who runs the planet? That's right-the multi-national corporations. And what is their raison d'etre? To force people to pro-duce rubbish for the same people to buy. Where does the funding come from for scientific research grants? From the multi-national corporations or via governments who are subservient to, because they are paid for by, those same corporations. Would either support any form of research that would make people refuse to fight their wars for them or consume less of their pointless rubbish? No.
At present, genetic engineering for the most part is becoming yet another manifestation of human megalomania within a world socio-economic system that owes its very existence to the continued cultivation and promotion by the corporate elites, of mass psychosis on an international scale. This is a sad indictment upon the entire human race. The evidence speaks for itself and after several millennia of wars and destruction, culminating in the present series of social and ecological disasters, it doesn't seem that homo sapiens will ever be anything other than what they are. Furthermore, this is a prof-itable, and therefore a protected and encouraged, irremediable and irre-versible, genetic condition.
In contrast the Dragons or Draco Sentiens, according to the most ancient definitions, were, once upon a time, long ago, genetically "clear sighted" members of the elder race, the "race of the wise". It therefore follows in con-clusion that, because of the neurophysiological, and consequently the cogni-tive and psychological differences between the two, neither was of the same species as the other, and the ancient Sumerian texts would uphold this view without question.
Grail Code-What Grail Code?
A Personal View
People enter relationships that serve their own interests or the interests of the "extended self". In the end, therefore, all human endeavour is self cen-tred, and all is "egotism". Beyond the facile exterior, there may be something of greater merit dwelling in the depths of the silence, but it is often not evi-dent. However "bigger" any greater, non-personalised aim might be, it is still serving itself and its own interests through the drives it instils in people. Theuniverse eats the universe as a manifestation of a larger cosmic egotism which cares nothing for the "rights" of Man.
The Universe has no contract with humanity, and therefore no contract men have with each other has any valid basis in reality either. In times past they would speak of the "Covenant with God". Now certain individuals pon-tificate vacuously about "The Grail Code". Both then and now-can only be seen as fraudulent contracts which no party can uphold because neither party can fulfil the obligations or restrict themselves to the limits implied within them. Abiding, externalised, imposed contracts are not a part of natu-ral law.
Individuals tolerate each other's peccadilloes if they have something to contribute to each other which is valued. The "Grail Code" of service to oth-ers is prominent in its absence because the relationships people have are driv-en by a financial imperative. This makes the statements of collective high idealism just that, a hollow mockery of something that died out long ago. The Grail Code today is just another clichéd phrase, a meaningless piece of "New Age" verbosity aimed at selling contrived, pseudo-intellectual, academically amateur jingoism to frightened, greedy fools.
Religious coercion is now replaced by jargonistic phrases, which try to promote weak, "New Age" philosophies that, like religion, are engineered to appeal to or coerce (for selfish motives) a higher sense in man that simply doesn't exist. For the Grail Code to work as it was envisaged or understood, everyone subscribing to it now would have to think with one mind and not consider individual gain before the welfare of the group. This is simply not happening. Nor will it.
Service to others without thought of self requires others to serve you with equal dedication and devotion if you and the group collectively are to survive.
The Grail Code in the distant past was neither a contract nor an ideal. It was the manifestation of a type of behaviour which was subsequent to a par-ticular form of consciousness.
How Did It Work?
Hierogamy or enthea (the marriage or union of the gods) between the Dragon Prince and the Swan Maiden resulted in the creation of an extended mind, the development of an interaction where the bounds of individual con-sciousness were broken. Two people joined together with an intensity that created a being greater than the sum of its parts. In alchemy this was called the breath of Ravens from which resulted the birth of the red-gold Phoenix, conceived in the death of Dragons and born in the ascent of the white star. The way these two individuals treated each other was called True or Courtly Love. If this phenomenon happened on a wider scale within the genome, the it, along with other universal phenomena, was a part of the unseen connecting threads of the underlying matrix of life. Its ..as Tra Love manifest collectively, which was called the Grail Code. Jesus called it "the Law of God written on the hearts of men in tongues of fire". Genetic righteousness.
The Grail Code was the behavioural manifestation of an attuned group of empathic individuals working towards the common good of that group. This required a "Hive Mind"--a collective consciousness or at least a height-ened capacity towards sensitivity and the anticipation of the needs of all within the genome, that transcended common consciousness. Therefore it was a manifestation of the outworking of the Siddhis within the web of inter-related and interconnected points of consciousness that are manifest through-out all levels of life.
The Grail Code, therefore, was a set of behavioural patterns that arose from within in response to a particular psychological condition that has detachment as its hallmark. It was not imposed from without by people with vested interests for their own ends or for the ends of any other disassociated group of individuals.
Without the "Hive Mind" (symbolised in the Dragon Dynasty by the Merovingian Bee, the Phoenician "House of the Gods" and the hexagonal figure of the Tree of Life of the Kabala) the Grail Code is a meaningless set of unattainable social aspirations.
To the "New Age" authors and devotees the people left outside the group who don't have the wiring or chemistry to participate and understand the collective mind the Grail Code is just another set of rules. However prettily and romantically packaged, these rules will inevitably be broken, and are therefore no better or worse than any other meaningless regulations.
The universe has features which are prime constants. The behaviour of materials is one example, which we call the "laws of physics". These we can term truths, because they don't vary under a given range of circumstances. Even down at the sub atomic level, the peculiarities are constant, inasmuch as they are constantly peculiar. Without these prime constants the universe would cease to exist.
The Grail Code, as a worthy set of regulations or aspirations for the gov-ernance of people's behaviour in relationship to each other is, quite frankly, an idealistic load of nonsense. It isn't that the Grail Code is a fantasy or a lie. It is simply a fact that it was and still is misapplied, and to the wrong people.
Relatively and contextually speaking, the Grail Code is not a truth, because it is not a constant, and it cannot be applied to regulate human behav-iour in human societies. We know this because it caused, in part, the mani-festation of a set of social conditions which were required in order to allow to occur the 1000 year genocide which is referred to in the Family as the Elven Holocaust. This resulted ultimately in the abandonment of the Grail Code itself.
What was the big mistake the Family made? They did unto others as they would have done unto themselves. In other words they used the transcen-dently inspired Grail Code they anciently applied to their own mystical race to order societies that were founded not upon transcendent perception, but upon animal instincts.
The Grail Code was applicable only to the Grail Blood. Elsewhere the only thing that worked was the law of the jungle and terrorism. The Family was seen as a soft touch because their empathy was extended to peoples who had no empathy themselves-only the desire to satisfy their own greed and assuage their own fears.
These peoples' selfish, individualistic motivations stood in direct opposi-tion to the Grail Code of "royal communism" and community service. Desire is a great motivator in any society and the Elves' desires were motivated by their transcendent consciousness, which could only operate in an environ-ment of truth and empathy.
The more one sees, the less one desires for oneself and the less attached one becomes. If one desires truth and sees only truth and gives instinctively for the common good because one can feel the common need, one becomes the target for opportunists and deceivers.
Faced with the violence and hostility of a group of myopic animals hell bent on their pursuing their own interests and unable to see the bigger pic-ture, the Elves had no chance of survival anyway, whatever the other cir-cumstances might have been. This alone was enough to destroy them. In a sense then, the Grail Code was a death sentence to the Dragon Families. This, perhaps, is how the Mayors of the Palace took over, through exploiting what they perceived as the innate trust, complacency and weakness of the Merovingian kings.
One can appear dark or harsh in one's attitudes towards human beings and human behaviour and one may make people wonder how one could possibly preach about the Grail on one hand and despise humans so much on the other. After all, isn't the Grail Code all to do with being nice to each other? Isn't it about being fair to one's fellow man? Doesn't it fit in with the overall ethos of the "New Age"? The answer to all these rhetorical questions is an absolute No. It isn't and it doesn't.
The Grail Code is the perfect example of an ill-advisedly applied series of innate laws arising from the profound depths of the genetic constitution of one species, applied to and completely misunderstood and abused by another.
