What is the TRUE meaning of US dollar symbolism?
Is it really Evil?


To understand Roerich’s connection to American History we need to turn to Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace who became President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Vice-President from 1940-1944. Wallace and Roerich met up through the Theosophical Society, and for a time Wallace became very attached to Roerich. He even took to penning letters to Roerich that began, “Dear Guru”.

If you look at an American one-dollar bill, you will find a pyramid with an “eye” on top. The Great Pyramid is often associated with Freemasonry, and many of the American founding fathers were Freemasons.

The symbol comes from the Great Seal of the United States designed in 1782 by Charles Thompson. In 1934 the Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace convinced Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau to place it on the dollar. It appeared in 1935.

Morgenthau did not know at the time that Wallace made the suggestion at the behest of his guru Nicholas Roerich. To Roerich, the eye represented the gaze of mahatmas, or super-evolved beings that guide the affairs and spiritual evolution of humanity.

Roerich (d 1947) and his wife Helena (d 1955) followed the Theosophy teachings of the colorful 19th century occultist, Helena P. Blavatsky (1831–1891). By 1925, the Roerichs had established a new theosophical group called Agni Yoga in New York and London, and later in Latvia, Russia, and India. Like Blavatsky, the Roerichs believed that mahatmas had chosen them as messengers to an elite core of mankind.

Nicholas Roerich, (October 9, 1874 - December 13, 1947) also known as Nikolai Konstantinovich Rerikh (Russian: Николай Константинович Рёрих), was a Russian painter and spiritual teacher.
He was the father of Tibetologist George Roerich (a.k.a. Yuri Roerich) and artist Svetoslav Roerich. Nicholas and his wife Helena Roerich were co-founders of the theosophical Agni Yoga Society.

Born in pre-revolutionary St. Petersburg, Russia to the family of a well-to-do notary public, he lived around the world until his death in Punjab, India. Trained as an artist and a lawyer, his interests lay in literature, philosophy, archaeology and especially art.

Hey december, the photo caption says Devika but his wife's name was Helena?!

Roerich recorded a UFO sighting.
Roerich's UFO sighting

During his travels in northern China, Roerich describes a strange sighting in his travel diary on August 5, 1926:

We were in our camp in the Kukonor district not far from the Humboldt Chain. In the morning about half-past nine some of our caravaneers noticed a remarkably big black eagle flying above us. Seven of us began to watch this unusual bird. At the same moment another of our caravaneers remarked, "There is something far above the bird." And he shouted in his astonishment. We all saw, in a direction from north to south, something big and shiny reflecting the sun like a huge oval moving at great speed. Crossing our camp this thing changed in its direction from south to southwest. And we saw how it dissappeared in the intense blue sky. We even had time to take our field glasses and saw quite distinctly an oval form with a bright surface, one of which was brilliant from the sun[1]

And he completed a painting called 'The Hidden Treasure , The Master's Command'. Interesting, I wonder what it looks like?

Hello, ho1ogram.

Devika was a wife of Svetoslav Roerich who was a son of Nicholas.

"Nicholas Roerich is a great Russian artist, writer, archaeologist, philosopher, traveller and a public figure. He was born in St.Petersburg on 9th of October, 1874. In 1897 he graduated from the Academy of Arts. In 1898 - Nicholas Roerich graduated from the law faculty of the St.Petersburg University.

At his student years Roerich had already been admitted as a member to the Russian Archaeological Society. Since 1901 Roerich was Secretary of the Society of Arts Encouragement. And since 1906 he was a Director of an art school. In 1909 Nicholas Roerich became an Academician of the Russian Academy of Arts. Since 1910 he was at the head of the art union "Mir Iskusstva". In the years of 1900-1910 Roerich was one of the founders and the most active figures of the Society of Renascence of the Art Russia and the Society of Protection and Preservation of the Monuments of Art and Past in Russia. In 1920-1922 in the USA Nicholas Roerich established the Institute of the United Arts in New York and other cultural and educative unions. In 1923 the Museum of Roerich was opened in New York.

It was the first museum of a Russian artist abroad. In 1924-1928 Roerich undertook a scientific and art expeditions through the Himalayas, Tibet, Mongolia and in 1934-1935 - around Manchuria and China. In 1928 in India he established the International Institute of the Himalayan Studies "Urusvati". In 1942 on the initiative of Nicholas Roerich the American-Russian Cultural Association was established in New York and he was chosen as its honorary President. In 1945 Roerich began the preparations to return to his motherland, but on the eve of departure, December 13, 1947, he was no more.

***
Helena Ivanovna Roerich (maiden name - Shaposhnikova) was born in St.Petersburg on 12th February, 1879. It was a nobiliary family distinguished not only for its nobility but for its cultural traditions too. On the maternal line her great-grandfather was the great Russian General Mikhail Kutuzov. Among her relatives there were a composer Modest Musorgsky and a poet Arsenly Golenishchev Kutuzov. Already in her early age - during her studying with teachers of the St.Petersburg Conservatory - Helena Ivanovna showed an outstanding talent for music. As a pianist she performed solo concerts. In 1901 Helena married Nicholas Roerich."

The Mahatmans are highly evolved men, controlling powers over Nature's forces which they have gained through self-directed evolution during many, many lives in the near and distant past.

Hello, space lizard.

You can find the same information in David Icke books And the Truth Shall Set You Free and The Biggest Secret where he also claims (correct me if I am wrong) that the reason why a pyramid and all seen eye were put on a US dollar bill is because the American elite belongs to the all seen eye worshiping cult.

But as you can see they (american elite) didn't even know about the all seen eye symbol until Nicholas Roerich told them about it in 1930s.

So, what is the true story here?...

Well to say that "Mahatmans are highly evolved men, controlling powers over Nature's forces" is like to say that Bush is running the world.
Which one is true? :)

But what I find interesting is that the US dollar pyramid looks like these buildings on Nicholas Roerich's painting -

The Keys of Enoch explains the eye and pyramid with some handy artwork to boot... havent read it though, just admired the artwork.

The Chintamani Stone also has something to do with this story.

One source says that Nicholas Roerich... ...even bringing a mysterious stone to guide the League of Nations on behalf of the Masters. According to legend, the 'Chintamani Stone' was believed to be a part of a magical meteorite from a solar system in the Orion constellation. This Chintamani Stone is sent wherever a spiritual mission vital to humanity is set up, and is returned when that mission is completed.

http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/NWO/All_Seeing_Eye.htm


"It appears to be a trapezohedron made of black stone or ore, with glowing striatons. However it is more, or less, than stone. Scientists would not be able to study it completely because it exists only partially in in humanities concept of matter and space.

It is more than an artifact, it is a key to doors that were sealed aeons ago.

Part of the stone was kept in a monastery in Tibet, the second in the Museum of Natural history in Manhattan, and the final piece in the city of Agartha.

One ancient South American Legend relates that the god Tvira built a temple on an island in the lake Titicaca to hold three holy stones called the Kala.

Similarly three black stones were venerated by the Muslims in the Ka'aba at the great mosque in Mecca. There are several traditions associated with the stones but all agree on its celestial origin. Muslims say that the stones were originally white but turned black after absorbing dark or evil thoughts.

In Hungary, near the village of Stregoicavar, there was a monolith that 19th century occultists spoke as one of the keys. There was a lot of superstition regarding the stone and the monolith, especially the assertion that if anyone slept in its vicinity that they would be haunted by monstrous nightmares of another world afterwards forever.

In many texts the stone is referred to as the Shining Trapezohedron. A number of esoteric and suppressed volumes dating back to the Gnostic tradition mentioned the original form of the stone as a Trapezohedron. An Arab scholar who went by the name of Abdul al-Hazred wrote of it in his 18th century manuscript, Kitab al-Azif. Von Junzt alluded to it in his Unausprechlichen Kulten, as did the Ponape scripture and Pinn's De Vermiis Mysteriis.

The most recent mention of the stone is from the 1920's and directly reference the reason why the stones were called keys.

In Buddhist and Taoist, there is the Tradition of Eight Immortals, eight masters who reside beneath a mountain on the Chinese-Tibet border. The City, known as Agartha in some legends and Hsi Wang Mu in others, is possibly underground and has been said by many as to be near Lhasa. There have been numerous and dubious reports of explorations of tunnels leading to the city, but the most convincing came from Nicholas Roerich, a Russian artist and Mystic.

During his travels in Asia in the first decade of the twentieth century he heard about Eight Immortals and their abode in the mountains. He learned from a native guide about a huge vault inside the Kun Lun mountain range where treasures had been stored from the beginning of history and of strange gray people.

In the 1920's a high abbot from the Trasilumpo lamasery entrusted Roerich with a fragment of a magical stone from another world, The Chintamani Stone, alleged to have come from the Sirius system. Ancient Asian texts claim that 'when the son of the sun descended upon the Earth to teach mankind, there fell from the heaven a shield which bore the power of the world.

Roerich's wife wrote that the stone possessed a dark luster, like a dark heart, with four unknown letters.. Roerich recognized the four letters on the stone to be Sanskrit and translated them to mean 'Through the Stars I come. I bring the chalice covered with the shield. Within it I bring a treasure, the gift of Orion.'

Its radiation was stronger than Radium but on a different frequency.

Asian legends state that this radiation covers a vast area and influence world events. The main mass of the stone is kept in a tower in the city of the Starborn.

According to ancient texts the stone was sent from Tibet to King Solomon in Jerusalem, who split the stone and made a ring out of one piece. Centuries later Muhammad took three other fragments to Mecca. A smaller fragment was sent with Roerich to Europe to help aid the establishment of the league of nations. With the failure of the League, Roerich returned the fragment to the Trasilumpo lamasery in Tibet.

Supposedly the thirteenth Dalai Lama decreed that the fragments were to be kept in separate places for safe keeping.

During Roerich's journey to Tibet he reported he saw a flying disk, a term he used two decades before the phrase was coined. His guide told him it was from the city of Agartha.

Roerich speculated that the stone was a form of Moldavite, a magnetic mineral said to be a spiritual accelerator. Some historians said that the stone can act as a homing beacon, leading to the man piece and the city of the Eight Immortals.

The Abbot told Roerich how the immortals were made of air and clay, formed by Mu Kung, the sovereign of eastern air and Wang Mu, the queen of the western air. A post Taoist twist is that they are from a planet in the solar system of Sirius and established an outpost in the Tibet Mountains to conduct their genetic hybrid experiments.

Roerich's theory about the stone is that it is charged with Shugs, currents of psychic force. He speculated it resembled an electrical accumulator and may give back, in one way or another, the energy stored within it. For instance, it will increase the spiritual vitality of anyone who touches it, infusing him with knowledge, or enhancing psychic abilities, that allow him to glimpse Agartha, the valley of the Eight Immortals.

The stone, according to Balam, is a key, a key to all futures and everyone's destiny. It is a point of power, a nontechnological quantum vortex.

More data to follow, hopefully."

Von Junzt alluded to it in his Unausprechlichen Kulten, as did the Ponape scripture and Pinn's De Vermiis Mysteriis.

the necronomicon may or may not be a spurious text. however, it has been leveraged by later charlatans:

ALEISTER CROWLEY

Aleister Crowley's writings show many parallels to the
Necronomicon Mythos. Some of these parallels are listed below.
Yog-Sothoth is coterminous with all time and space. (see Part One
under Yog-Sothoth.) Crowley's Nuit is "infinite space" Azathoth is
the infinitely compact "nuclear Chaos at the center of infinity"(see
part one uner Azathoth Crowley's Hadit is "the infinitely small and
atomic" point. Here we see that the Two most important Gods of
the Necronomicon correspond exactly with Crowley's Two most
important Gods. Crowley received the BOOK OF LAW, which
foretold the return of the ancient deities, from the messenger of the
Gods Aiwaz. The Necronomicon states that the return of the Old
Ones will be heralded by Nyarlathotep the Mighty Messenger.
Crowley states that the ascension and fall of deities is governed by
a process he called the Equinox of the Gods. The Necronomicon
states that the rises and fall of the Old Ones is also Governed by an
Eon spanning cycle (After summer is winter. After winter,
Summer). The Dragon (draconian current) is important to Crowley's
Magick. Cthulhu the dragon-like god is of great importance in the
Necronomicon. Crowley sometimes referred to the Stele of
Revealing as CTH^H666. Note the similarity between CTH^H and
CTHULHU. There are a great many more similarities but this
should give you the general idea.


ANTON SZANDOR LAVEY

Anton LaVey is the head of the Church of Satan. In _The Satanic
Bible_ LaVey asserts that the Shew Stone used by Dr. John Dee is
the same as the Shining Trapezohedron of the Necronomicon
Mythos. Mr. LaVey also asserts in _The Satanic Bible_ that the
Goat God worshipped through the eons is The Black Goat of the
Woods with a Thousand Young from the Necronomicon. In the
sequel to the Satanic Bible, The Satanic Rituals, Lavey presents
two rituals concerned entirely with the HPL mythos. The first is the
Call to Cthulhu. The second is the Cermony of the Nine Angels.
Here is a brief quote from Ceremony of the Nine Angels.

http://www.totse.com/en/religion/the_occult/necrosrc.html

supposedly, john dee translated the necronomicon in the 1600's and all hell broke loose.

What are the "Old Ones"?
It is abundantly clear that Alhazred elaborated upon existing traditions of the "Old Ones", and he did not invent these traditions. According to Alhazred, the Old Ones were beings from "beyond the spheres", presumably the spheres of the planets, and in the cosmography of that period this would imply the region of the fixed stars or beyond. They were superhuman and extrahuman. They mated with humans and begat monstrous offspring. They passed forbidden knowledge to humankind. They were forever seeking a channel into our plane of existence.

This is virtually identical to the Jewish tradition of the Nephilim (the giants of Genesis 6.2 - 6.5). The word literally means "the Fallen Ones" and is derived from the Hebrew verb root naphal, to fall. The story in Genesis is only a fragment of a larger tradition, another piece of which can be found in the apocryphal Book of Enoch. According to this source, a group of angels sent to watch over the Earth saw the daughters of men and lusted after them. Unwilling to act individually, they swore an oath and bound themselves together, and two hundred of these "Watchers" descended to earth and took themselves wives. Their wives bore giant offspring. The giants turned against nature and began to "sin against birds and beasts and reptiles and fish, and to devour one another's flesh, and drink the blood". The fallen angels taught how to make weapons of war, and jewellery, and cosmetics, and enchantments, and astrology, and other secrets.

These separate legends are elaborated in later Jewish sources such as the Talmud, which make it clear that Enoch and Genesis refer to the same tradition. The great flood of Genesis was a direct response to the evil caused by humankind's commerce with fallen angels. The fallen angels were cast out and bound:

"And I proceeded to where things were chaotic. And I saw something horrible: I saw neither a heaven above nor a firmly founded earth, but a place chaotic and horrible. And there I saw seven stars of the heaven bound together in it, like great mountains, and burning with fire. Then I said: 'For what sin have they been bound, and on what account have they been cast in hither?' Then said Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me, and was chief over them and said: 'Enoch, why dost thou ask, and why art thou eager for the truth? These are the number of the stars of heaven which have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and are bound here till ten thousand years, the time entailed by their sins, are consummated.'"

Arab traditions hold that the Jinn or Djinn were a race of superhuman beings which existed before the creation of humankind. The Djinn were created from fire. Some traditions make them a lesser race than human beings, but folk-tales invariably endowed them with unlimited magical powers, and the Djinn survive to this day as the genies of the Arabian Nights and Disney's Aladdin. Islam has subordinated the Djinn to the Koran, and like elves and fairies they have lost their dark and extremely sinister qualities with the passage of time. In Alhazred's time the older and darker traditions of the Djinn were still current, and Arab magicians ("muqarribun") would attempt to gain forbidden knowledge and power through commerce with the Djinn.

http://www.digital-brilliance.com/necron/necron.htm

supposedly, the u.s. seal is a "seal of solomon", which is basically a geometric form of any shape that focuses energy and causes cohesion, be they five, six, eight or twelve points. joseph campbell cited the medieval arab alchemists used trapesohedrons to cage the djinn. just like the fasces from classic roman symbolism is incorporated into the federal architecture in washington d.c., all over flags and such here. fasces, fascism, feces, wotteva.

so, the great seal, imv, is a symbol saying to the 13 sovereign states, "you're penned in, jack." 0wn3d.

The Tibetan 'Airhorse' (?) Hi-Mori and the 'Chintamani' mystery

An ancient Tibetan story tell about the Hi-mori, an "airhorse" that flies through the sky (similar to a Vimana) and carries with it the sacred stone of Chintamani.

In the 1920's a high abbot from the Trasilumpo lamasery entrusted the Russian artist and discoverer Nicholas Roerich with a fragment of this magical stone from another world, the Chintamani Stone, alleged to have come from the Sirius system. Ancient Asian texts claim that 'when the son of the sun descended upon the Earth to teach mankind, there fell from the heaven a shield which bore the power of the world.

According to ancient texts the stone was sent from Tibet to King Solomon in Jerusalem, who split the stone and made a ring out of one piece... A.A.S. R.A. / legendarytimes.com members are not only looking for NEW interpretations of these ancient legends but also search for the strange artifacts themself!

Chintamani Stone

Page Version 1.02


It appears to be a trapezohedron made of black stone or ore, with glowing striatons. However it is more, or less, than stone. Scientists would not be able to study it completely because it exists only partially in in humanities concept of matter and space. The black stone is simply an object, but an object of a kind that can only exist under a certain set of physical laws. It does not contravene natural laws, but conserves and enhances them. These laws are the same ones that the Archons, as well as humanity exist. It is just that humanity refused to understand these laws.

The artifact doesn't fit atomically with any of the tables human science devised. Human scientists wouldn't be able to understand the stone because it only partially exists in what humanity knows about time and space. It is a creation, pure matter crafted from scientific principles that were understood thousands of years before, but have long since been forgotten. Through it the pulse flows of thought energy converge. Through it the flux lines of possibility, probability, of eternity and alternity meet.

....

The most recent mention of the stone is from the 1920's and directly reference the reason why the stones were called keys.
