1
00:00:21,521 --> 00:00:24,958
(tense orchestral music)
2
00:01:36,563 --> 00:01:39,399
- [Narrator] They are the
most mysterious of beings,
3
00:01:39,399 --> 00:01:43,770
gods, angels, aliens,
or ordinary men
4
00:01:43,770 --> 00:01:45,839
with incredible
knowledge or wisdom.
5
00:01:46,673 --> 00:01:47,674
Nobody's sure.
6
00:01:52,745 --> 00:01:57,050
The culture of Mesopotamia
is rich and complex.
7
00:01:57,050 --> 00:02:00,286
Historians have been slowly
unraveling their secrets.
8
00:02:06,693 --> 00:02:08,394
From the epic of Gilgamesh
9
00:02:08,394 --> 00:02:11,764
to the many references of
them in other cultures,
10
00:02:11,764 --> 00:02:15,668
the mystery of the Anunnaki
is becoming more clear.
11
00:02:20,874 --> 00:02:24,177
To western eyes, their
ways are strange.
12
00:02:24,177 --> 00:02:27,814
Over hundreds of years they
have been called gods and angels
13
00:02:27,814 --> 00:02:30,350
and now in our modern
age, many see them as
14
00:02:30,350 --> 00:02:34,053
aliens visiting earth and
bringing great knowledge.
15
00:02:39,893 --> 00:02:43,129
The truth of their
real origin and purpose
16
00:02:43,129 --> 00:02:45,865
is much more bizarre and amazing
17
00:02:45,865 --> 00:02:47,967
than anything
previously believed.
18
00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:56,609
Prepare to witness
the demystification
19
00:02:56,609 --> 00:02:58,745
of a sacred and ancient past.
20
00:03:00,713 --> 00:03:04,551
Prepare to see the Anunnaki
as they really were,
21
00:03:04,551 --> 00:03:07,353
and in so doing, we
will discover the truth
22
00:03:07,353 --> 00:03:09,789
about so many other things,
23
00:03:09,789 --> 00:03:13,026
from the Garden of Eden
to the great flood,
24
00:03:13,026 --> 00:03:16,796
from the god of the bible
to the secrets of Inuk,
25
00:03:16,796 --> 00:03:18,164
all shall be revealed.
26
00:03:25,672 --> 00:03:29,075
In truth, the Anunnaki
are a group of ancient
27
00:03:29,075 --> 00:03:31,811
Mesopotamian deities.
28
00:03:31,811 --> 00:03:34,714
They are to be found
in Sumerian, Akkadian,
29
00:03:34,714 --> 00:03:37,417
Babylonian, and
Assyrian cultures.
30
00:03:41,821 --> 00:03:45,625
Their exact numbers,
descriptions, and roles
31
00:03:45,625 --> 00:03:47,327
all contradict each other.
32
00:03:50,730 --> 00:03:53,566
According to the
earliest Sumerian texts,
33
00:03:53,566 --> 00:03:56,936
the Anunnaki were the
most powerful of gods
34
00:03:56,936 --> 00:04:00,640
in a rich pantheon and
were descended from An,
35
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,175
the greatest of the gods.
36
00:04:09,916 --> 00:04:12,385
Later, they became
the seven judges
37
00:04:12,385 --> 00:04:15,888
who sit upon the throne
in the underworld.
38
00:04:19,158 --> 00:04:21,226
They remain this
way for some time,
39
00:04:21,226 --> 00:04:23,730
even in the epic of Gilgamesh.
40
00:04:24,897 --> 00:04:27,433
According to old
Babylonian texts,
41
00:04:27,433 --> 00:04:30,336
they were gods of the
underworld, not of heaven.
42
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,910
The name simply means
offspring of Anu or An,
43
00:04:37,910 --> 00:04:40,280
the sky lord and king.
44
00:04:44,083 --> 00:04:46,352
The most prominent and
probably well-known
45
00:04:46,352 --> 00:04:48,488
of the Anunnaki was Enlil,
46
00:04:48,488 --> 00:04:51,491
who cleaved heaven
and earth in two.
47
00:04:56,195 --> 00:04:58,698
Anu decided to take the heavens,
48
00:04:58,698 --> 00:05:01,200
and left the earth
to Enlil and Ki.
49
00:05:02,368 --> 00:05:04,771
Ki is most likely
the Sumerian version
50
00:05:04,771 --> 00:05:06,372
of the mother goddess
51
00:05:06,372 --> 00:05:08,608
seen in cultures
across the globe.
52
00:05:18,318 --> 00:05:22,488
The physical evidence of worship
of the Anunnaki is scarce.
53
00:05:23,623 --> 00:05:26,726
Most of what we know
comes to us from texts.
54
00:05:26,726 --> 00:05:28,895
It appears that
each of the Anunnaki
55
00:05:28,895 --> 00:05:32,632
were worshiped separately
in individual cults.
56
00:05:32,632 --> 00:05:34,901
And because of this, no evidence
57
00:05:34,901 --> 00:05:37,537
of them as a group
has been found,
58
00:05:37,537 --> 00:05:40,039
no image of them all together.
59
00:05:41,741 --> 00:05:45,311
As such, the practices of
worship of the Anunnaki
60
00:05:45,311 --> 00:05:46,679
is thin on the ground.
61
00:05:52,585 --> 00:05:55,421
The first mention of
them is to be found
62
00:05:55,421 --> 00:05:58,458
in the reign of Gudir, of
the third dynasty of Ur.
63
00:05:59,892 --> 00:06:03,396
It is a term used to denote
the most important deities
64
00:06:03,396 --> 00:06:06,766
of the Sumerian pantheon,
the descendants of An.
65
00:06:11,938 --> 00:06:14,807
Exactly which deities
were members of the group
66
00:06:14,807 --> 00:06:18,044
referred to as the Anunnaki
is difficult to know.
67
00:06:20,847 --> 00:06:24,250
There is no complete list
of them that survives.
68
00:06:28,354 --> 00:06:31,958
One of the texts
mentions 50 or so members
69
00:06:31,958 --> 00:06:35,862
of them associated with
the ancient city of Eridu.
70
00:06:35,862 --> 00:06:38,698
And yet, when we read
of the descent of Inanna
71
00:06:38,698 --> 00:06:42,235
into the underworld,
there are only seven.
72
00:06:42,235 --> 00:06:45,004
They are judges who
condemn her to death.
73
00:06:55,915 --> 00:06:59,152
There is a group of
deities known as the Igigi
74
00:06:59,152 --> 00:07:01,621
and they are sometimes
confused with the Anunnaki.
75
00:07:03,055 --> 00:07:06,726
However, in the poem of Ira,
both groups are different.
76
00:07:08,161 --> 00:07:12,598
In one flood myth, the Igigi
are sixth generation gods
77
00:07:12,598 --> 00:07:14,700
who perform labors
for the Anunnaki.
78
00:07:16,169 --> 00:07:20,173
However, after 40 days, they
revolt against their masters
79
00:07:20,173 --> 00:07:24,343
and so Enki, one of
the Anunnaki, replaces
them with humans.
80
00:07:26,712 --> 00:07:29,215
(tense music)
81
00:07:33,653 --> 00:07:35,621
The similarities with
the biblical flood
82
00:07:35,621 --> 00:07:38,958
in Numbers are quite remarkable.
83
00:07:38,958 --> 00:07:41,828
It is obvious that
Mesopotamian myths
84
00:07:41,828 --> 00:07:44,764
heavily influenced
or were the origin
85
00:07:44,764 --> 00:07:47,099
of much of the
biblical Old Testament.
86
00:07:57,677 --> 00:08:01,848
In the Babylonian creation
text known as the Enuma Elish,
87
00:08:01,848 --> 00:08:06,018
the god Marduk divides the
Anunnaki and gives them roles.
88
00:08:15,595 --> 00:08:18,965
300 in heaven and 300 on earth.
89
00:08:20,132 --> 00:08:23,069
As a thank you, the
Anunnaki built Esagila
90
00:08:23,069 --> 00:08:27,173
as an abode for
Marduk, Enlil, and Ea.
91
00:08:28,674 --> 00:08:31,644
When they had finished, they
built themselves shrines.
92
00:08:42,822 --> 00:08:47,293
In later Assyrian texts, they
were offspring of Anu and Ki
93
00:08:47,293 --> 00:08:49,095
who were brother and sister,
94
00:08:49,095 --> 00:08:52,865
and themselves children of the
gods of the celestial poles
95
00:08:52,865 --> 00:08:56,235
and whose heritage stretched
back to the original gods,
96
00:08:56,235 --> 00:08:57,403
Tiamat and Abzu.
97
00:08:59,038 --> 00:09:02,041
(tense string music)
98
00:09:12,652 --> 00:09:16,522
Here we begin to see clues
to the use of these deities
99
00:09:16,522 --> 00:09:19,625
as names for the
bodies in the sky,
100
00:09:19,625 --> 00:09:21,894
the stars that shine above.
101
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:39,178
This then, is the
brief knowledge we
have of the Anunnaki.
102
00:09:40,079 --> 00:09:41,981
Now we must delve deeper,
103
00:09:41,981 --> 00:09:45,017
and to do so, we must
enter their world.
104
00:09:58,297 --> 00:09:59,999
Appearing out of nowhere
105
00:09:59,999 --> 00:10:03,569
and at least as early as
the fifth millennium BC,
106
00:10:03,569 --> 00:10:07,873
the earliest known civilization,
the Sumerians of Sumer
107
00:10:07,873 --> 00:10:12,044
in Mesopotamia was initially
a non-Semitic culture.
108
00:10:13,379 --> 00:10:17,083
By 3000 BC, and as a
result of its sophisticated
109
00:10:17,083 --> 00:10:21,253
irrigated agriculture,
Sumer flourished as a nation
110
00:10:22,388 --> 00:10:24,690
and developed a
considerable power base
111
00:10:24,690 --> 00:10:27,893
through the development of
its numerous city-states
112
00:10:27,893 --> 00:10:32,064
like Ur, Uruk, Eridu,
Lagash, and Kish.
113
00:10:46,812 --> 00:10:50,616
It is said that the Sumerians
invented cuneiform writing
114
00:10:50,616 --> 00:10:53,052
and were way ahead
of their time,
115
00:10:53,052 --> 00:10:56,455
having advanced knowledge
in music, poetry,
116
00:10:56,455 --> 00:11:00,493
art, mathematics,
astronomy, and science.
117
00:11:00,493 --> 00:11:03,529
(tense string music)
118
00:11:13,372 --> 00:11:16,208
For the ancient Sumerians,
music was a tool
119
00:11:16,208 --> 00:11:18,411
that helped them
describe the cosmos.
120
00:11:23,082 --> 00:11:24,950
The Sumerians were
later conquered
121
00:11:24,950 --> 00:11:29,121
by their long-term rivals,
the Akkadians and Sargon I.
122
00:11:33,826 --> 00:11:36,328
The Akkadians were
a Semitic people
123
00:11:36,328 --> 00:11:38,798
whose city Akkad
was their capital.
124
00:11:44,403 --> 00:11:48,574
After 2000 BC, Sumeria
Akkad declined as a nation
125
00:11:49,975 --> 00:11:52,845
and was later absorbed
by the expanding empires
126
00:11:52,845 --> 00:11:54,947
of Babylonia and Assyria.
127
00:12:04,256 --> 00:12:06,158
In Sumerian creation myth,
128
00:12:06,158 --> 00:12:09,295
the angels known as the Anunaj,
129
00:12:09,295 --> 00:12:12,531
Anunnaki, or Great Sons of Anu
130
00:12:12,531 --> 00:12:14,300
were the founders
of their culture.
131
00:12:24,310 --> 00:12:28,481
The names angel, Anunaj, and
Anukim have much in common.
132
00:12:30,382 --> 00:12:33,018
They are indicative of
the ancient ancestors
133
00:12:33,018 --> 00:12:37,089
who brought the secrets
to the rest of the world.
134
00:12:48,801 --> 00:12:52,304
Interestingly, Anunnaki
is phonetically similar
135
00:12:52,304 --> 00:12:55,908
to the Hebrew Anakim,
the giant race
136
00:12:55,908 --> 00:12:58,310
who appear in the story later
137
00:12:58,310 --> 00:13:02,414
and also anger Kok, the shaman
from Greenland to Alaska.
138
00:13:03,616 --> 00:13:06,185
They were known as
the shining ones.
139
00:13:19,398 --> 00:13:22,134
The earliest accounts
of the shining ones
140
00:13:22,134 --> 00:13:25,204
can be found in four
principal sources.
141
00:13:25,204 --> 00:13:29,542
Firstly, in the Sumerian tablet
from the library of Nikol
142
00:13:29,542 --> 00:13:32,812
where they are named the Anunaj.
143
00:13:32,812 --> 00:13:35,314
Secondly, in the book of Inok,
144
00:13:35,314 --> 00:13:38,150
where they are
referred to as angels,
145
00:13:38,150 --> 00:13:40,920
watchers, or nephilim.
146
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,789
Thirdly, the in the
book of Jubilees,
147
00:13:43,789 --> 00:13:47,726
and fourthly, in the
biblical book of Genesis,
148
00:13:47,726 --> 00:13:49,829
where they are given
the name Elohim.
149
00:14:03,809 --> 00:14:08,414
The Sumerian El is
usually translated as god,
150
00:14:08,414 --> 00:14:12,251
but the feminine Elohim
is the plural of El.
151
00:14:13,452 --> 00:14:17,256
In Genesis, the phrase
A-Elohim is also used,
152
00:14:18,490 --> 00:14:20,926
meaning the Elohim.
153
00:14:32,738 --> 00:14:35,941
El means brightness and shining.
154
00:14:35,941 --> 00:14:38,110
Indeed, the Semitic word El
155
00:14:38,110 --> 00:14:40,880
is found in many
ancient languages.
156
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,050
For instance, the Anglo-Saxon
Aelf means shining being,
157
00:14:46,185 --> 00:14:49,622
so El needs to be
translated not as god,
158
00:14:49,622 --> 00:14:54,593
but as the shining one,
and A-Elohim, being plural,
159
00:14:54,593 --> 00:14:57,463
should read the shining ones.
160
00:14:57,463 --> 00:15:00,532
(tense string music)
161
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,083
We find that this is the
most commonly-used term
162
00:15:18,083 --> 00:15:22,855
in the Old Testament for God,
and indeed, all other gods,
163
00:15:22,855 --> 00:15:27,026
as the scribes even recognized
other gods at that time.
164
00:15:35,234 --> 00:15:38,604
The name Sumer
comes from Shumer,
165
00:15:38,604 --> 00:15:42,174
and means literally the
land of the watchers.
166
00:15:42,174 --> 00:15:46,745
It is none other than the
ancient biblical land of Shinar,
167
00:15:46,745 --> 00:15:50,482
which amazingly means the
place of the shining ones.
168
00:15:57,356 --> 00:15:59,525
The shining ones
are in the bible,
169
00:15:59,525 --> 00:16:02,594
and have been there ever since
they wrote themselves in.
170
00:16:13,572 --> 00:16:18,344
Elohim is usually translated
incorrectly as lord,
171
00:16:18,344 --> 00:16:21,814
and if you read the
bible and replace lord,
172
00:16:21,814 --> 00:16:24,616
and don't forget
about the added words,
173
00:16:24,616 --> 00:16:29,088
with shining ones, you will
see a remarkable difference,
174
00:16:29,088 --> 00:16:32,891
a reading now of how
it was meant to be.
175
00:16:32,891 --> 00:16:35,728
We now have the shining
light of knowledge
176
00:16:35,728 --> 00:16:39,531
spoken of in 2 Corinthians 4:6.
177
00:16:39,531 --> 00:16:42,768
The lord God of the
bible is the light
178
00:16:42,768 --> 00:16:47,006
who gives birth to the
divine spark of Christ.
179
00:16:47,006 --> 00:16:49,641
A pure reading of the
global understanding
180
00:16:49,641 --> 00:16:54,480
that god was the basis for
illumination, the fire,
181
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:58,450
the sun, the light,
and heads of those
182
00:16:58,450 --> 00:17:01,153
that shine from that brilliance,
183
00:17:01,153 --> 00:17:03,489
the source of
intelligence itself.
184
00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:17,502
Anu or An was the
chief sky sun god
185
00:17:19,570 --> 00:17:21,072
and means shining.
186
00:17:25,644 --> 00:17:29,982
The Anunaj therefore means
sons of the shining one,
187
00:17:29,982 --> 00:17:31,750
or sons of light.
188
00:17:37,556 --> 00:17:41,260
In Ireland, the term
for shining was aine.
189
00:17:42,661 --> 00:17:45,964
There may be a connection here
with the Tuatha De Danaan,
190
00:17:45,964 --> 00:17:48,067
the shining ones of Ireland,
191
00:17:48,067 --> 00:17:50,102
and the serpent cult
that Saint Patrick
192
00:17:50,102 --> 00:17:52,004
had removed from
the Emerald Isle.
193
00:18:02,214 --> 00:18:06,385
Also there is an
unusual semi-nomadic
bear worshiping tribe
194
00:18:07,386 --> 00:18:10,589
in Japan known as the Ainu.
195
00:18:10,589 --> 00:18:13,859
The Ainu look Caucasian,
with round heads,
196
00:18:13,859 --> 00:18:18,030
white skin, wavy thick
hair, and gray or blue eyes.
197
00:18:19,398 --> 00:18:21,834
The Ainu are said
to have been living
198
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:24,770
in many of Japan's
islands like Okinawa
199
00:18:24,770 --> 00:18:28,507
for over 7,000 years,
and it is said that
200
00:18:28,507 --> 00:18:32,744
the Ainu share a language
similarity with the Basque,
201
00:18:32,744 --> 00:18:34,580
who live in the Pyrenees,
202
00:18:34,580 --> 00:18:38,117
the mountains bordering
Spain and France.
203
00:18:38,117 --> 00:18:41,286
(upbeat string music)
204
00:18:51,230 --> 00:18:56,034
Also interesting is the fact
that in these Ainu regions,
205
00:18:56,034 --> 00:18:59,071
a number of stone
circles have been found
206
00:18:59,071 --> 00:19:02,174
with a slender upright
stone in the center,
207
00:19:02,174 --> 00:19:06,345
similar to those found in the
British Isles and elsewhere.
208
00:19:19,558 --> 00:19:22,494
These Anunnaki or shining ones
209
00:19:22,494 --> 00:19:26,064
were a culturally and
technically advanced people
210
00:19:26,064 --> 00:19:28,467
who settled in a mountain valley
211
00:19:28,467 --> 00:19:31,803
in the Middle East
around 8200 BC
212
00:19:32,804 --> 00:19:35,741
and as their primary concern,
213
00:19:35,741 --> 00:19:39,178
established an agricultural
center we now know
214
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:42,147
as the Garden of
Eden for the teaching
215
00:19:42,147 --> 00:19:44,116
and training of the
local tribesmen.
216
00:19:58,964 --> 00:20:01,700
They were described as
the shining countenance
217
00:20:01,700 --> 00:20:05,804
to lords of cultivation,
elevated to gods.
218
00:20:11,476 --> 00:20:14,646
Anu and his wife,
Antu had two sons.
219
00:20:14,646 --> 00:20:18,817
Enlil the storm god, ruled
the air and atmosphere,
220
00:20:19,851 --> 00:20:21,620
and Enki, the water.
221
00:20:28,660 --> 00:20:32,497
Enki is also the wise
teacher known as Ir
222
00:20:32,497 --> 00:20:37,402
or Oannes, who led the fish
beings that came from the sea,
223
00:20:37,402 --> 00:20:39,905
or indeed from a cross the sea.
224
00:20:50,282 --> 00:20:54,253
Enki was depicted as a
goat with a fish's tail.
225
00:20:54,253 --> 00:20:56,555
It became the sign of Capricorn.
226
00:21:08,166 --> 00:21:12,671
Enki or Ir's consort
was Nimke or Damkina
227
00:21:12,671 --> 00:21:16,875
and their children
were Marduk and Nyach.
228
00:21:16,875 --> 00:21:20,279
Enlil, also known as Bel or Bal
229
00:21:20,279 --> 00:21:22,981
and whose patron
city with Nippur,
230
00:21:22,981 --> 00:21:25,083
later ruled in Anu's name.
231
00:21:28,654 --> 00:21:31,957
Nimil or Ninhursag
ruled the Earth.
232
00:21:35,927 --> 00:21:38,297
The early Sumerians
described themselves
233
00:21:38,297 --> 00:21:41,967
as constantly nourished
by the milk of Ninhursag,
234
00:21:41,967 --> 00:21:44,069
the great mother moon goddess.
235
00:21:47,873 --> 00:21:51,777
The Assyrians knew her as
Atargatis, the mermaid.
236
00:22:04,790 --> 00:22:09,561
The sun of Enlil and Ninmah
was the war god Ninurta,
237
00:22:09,561 --> 00:22:11,296
also known as Nimrod.
238
00:22:12,431 --> 00:22:15,534
And like Horus and as Osiris,
239
00:22:15,534 --> 00:22:19,104
he became associated with the
star constellation of Orion.
240
00:22:31,149 --> 00:22:34,886
We also have Nana, who
was the moon goddess,
241
00:22:34,886 --> 00:22:39,057
and Utu, the sun god, also
known as Ogmash and Shamash.
242
00:22:40,559 --> 00:22:44,730
It was Shamash who later gave
the 29 laws to King Hammurabi.
243
00:23:01,346 --> 00:23:04,316
There is also Inanna or Ishtar
244
00:23:04,316 --> 00:23:07,018
who was associated with Venus,
245
00:23:07,018 --> 00:23:08,820
as symbolized by the pentacle.
246
00:23:15,494 --> 00:23:19,564
The texts that we have on
the Sumerian deities vary.
247
00:23:19,564 --> 00:23:22,234
In fact, they evolve over time,
248
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:26,738
losing some of their historicity
as the story develops,
249
00:23:26,738 --> 00:23:29,775
making it more and more
difficult to see the origins.
250
00:23:46,191 --> 00:23:48,226
Trying to bring
clarity to the tales
251
00:23:48,226 --> 00:23:51,530
of Sumerian and
Mesopotamian deities is like
252
00:23:51,530 --> 00:23:54,699
trying to learn
Mandarin backwards.
253
00:23:54,699 --> 00:23:57,636
However, due to the
names we are given,
254
00:23:57,636 --> 00:23:59,871
such as Enki, for instance,
255
00:23:59,871 --> 00:24:03,041
who is identified with
Ir and and Oannes,
256
00:24:03,041 --> 00:24:06,111
we are being led to
cross-reference the Anunaj
257
00:24:06,111 --> 00:24:09,448
with the fish beings who
seem to have come ashore
258
00:24:09,448 --> 00:24:13,819
in Sumeria from the Red
Sea and the Persian Gulf,
259
00:24:13,819 --> 00:24:17,556
and at a time which is
now lost in antiquity.
260
00:24:34,439 --> 00:24:37,809
Indeed, we find that
both are the same people
261
00:24:37,809 --> 00:24:41,980
and that the fish beings are
also the Anunnaki shining ones,
262
00:24:43,181 --> 00:24:46,351
the gods of Sumeria, and
the Elohim of the bible.
263
00:24:54,259 --> 00:24:57,229
And when we then cross-reference
these fish beings
264
00:24:57,229 --> 00:25:00,999
with the Nita gods and
the Shemsu-hor, or Aku,
265
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,337
and whom it is said
appeared in Egypt
266
00:25:05,337 --> 00:25:07,439
from a submerged island,
267
00:25:07,439 --> 00:25:11,409
we also have to include the
origins of the Hindu Naga,
268
00:25:11,409 --> 00:25:15,180
serpent deities who also
came from a lost island.
269
00:25:34,199 --> 00:25:37,202
It can easily be concluded
that the shining ones
270
00:25:37,202 --> 00:25:40,839
of Sumeria, Egypt,
and India were really
271
00:25:40,839 --> 00:25:44,676
incoming people from a
lost or destroyed land.
272
00:25:52,617 --> 00:25:57,355
These connections allow us
to piece together their story
273
00:25:57,355 --> 00:26:00,625
and see a little more of
the historical territory,
274
00:26:00,625 --> 00:26:04,796
much of which was been lost or
deliberately hidden from us.
275
00:26:24,049 --> 00:26:26,585
We can see then that
these shining ones,
276
00:26:26,585 --> 00:26:28,920
who later became
worshiped as the Sumerian
277
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,389
pantheon of gods and goddesses
278
00:26:31,389 --> 00:26:35,794
seem to have been a dynastic
ruling family or clan.
279
00:26:35,794 --> 00:26:38,430
Anu, the chief authority,
280
00:26:38,430 --> 00:26:41,433
became the universal father god,
281
00:26:41,433 --> 00:26:44,603
as a pictograph from
his founded city of Uruk
282
00:26:44,603 --> 00:26:47,572
dated to 3000 BC depicts.
283
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,956
The lineages of all
these deities are mixed,
284
00:27:04,956 --> 00:27:06,992
with sisters,
wives, and mothers,
285
00:27:06,992 --> 00:27:10,028
fathers, brothers,
and sons intermingling
286
00:27:10,028 --> 00:27:11,730
and confusing the whole thing.
287
00:27:18,837 --> 00:27:20,972
Considering the many
thousands of years
288
00:27:20,972 --> 00:27:23,575
between the composition
of these texts
289
00:27:23,575 --> 00:27:27,012
and the actual existence
of these peculiar peoples
290
00:27:27,012 --> 00:27:29,748
or beliefs, this is no surprise.
291
00:27:30,882 --> 00:27:33,918
What is clear is that
certain deities do
292
00:27:33,918 --> 00:27:36,855
continually stand
out from the crowd.
293
00:27:36,855 --> 00:27:40,058
Namely, Anu, Enlil, Enki,
294
00:27:40,058 --> 00:27:42,994
Ninhursag, Inanna,
and Utu Shamash.
295
00:27:44,429 --> 00:27:47,365
(mysterious music)
296
00:28:00,245 --> 00:28:03,682
And that the form and
structure of these deities
297
00:28:03,682 --> 00:28:07,786
would go on to spawn
Egyptian, Greek, and Roman
298
00:28:07,786 --> 00:28:10,922
pantheons for centuries,
if not thousands of years.
299
00:28:18,697 --> 00:28:21,466
No wonder, then,
that the watchers,
300
00:28:21,466 --> 00:28:24,002
the military arm of
the shining ones,
301
00:28:24,002 --> 00:28:26,805
should in later
myths be doing battle
302
00:28:26,805 --> 00:28:30,041
with the gods of
Greece, Egypt, and Rome,
303
00:28:30,041 --> 00:28:33,144
not to mention the
rest of the world.
304
00:28:42,687 --> 00:28:46,324
Just as the fallen insurgent
nephilim, or watchers,
305
00:28:46,324 --> 00:28:48,693
do battle with their
own ruling family
306
00:28:48,693 --> 00:28:50,829
of shining ones in the bible.
307
00:28:57,435 --> 00:29:00,538
One interesting detail
we should perhaps mention
308
00:29:00,538 --> 00:29:03,308
is that like Osiris
of ancient Egypt,
309
00:29:03,308 --> 00:29:06,778
Enlil was depicted as a bull,
310
00:29:06,778 --> 00:29:08,480
and like Set, his brother,
311
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:12,650
Enki of the Abzu or abyss,
was depicted as a serpent.
312
00:29:14,419 --> 00:29:17,455
Interestingly, because
the people of Atlantis
313
00:29:17,455 --> 00:29:19,924
were supposed to have
worshiped the bull,
314
00:29:19,924 --> 00:29:22,227
which is a remarkable
coincidence,
315
00:29:22,227 --> 00:29:24,863
taking into the account that
the association with deities
316
00:29:24,863 --> 00:29:25,797
have with the biblical deluge.
317
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,250
It is said that Enlil, who
took over as the leader
318
00:29:45,250 --> 00:29:49,254
of the shining ones lived
for thousands of years,
319
00:29:49,254 --> 00:29:52,490
but those who use this
to show that these
320
00:29:52,490 --> 00:29:55,827
shining ones were special beings
321
00:29:55,827 --> 00:29:58,696
that originally came
from another world,
322
00:29:58,696 --> 00:30:03,201
or even another dimension,
forget one thing,
323
00:30:03,201 --> 00:30:06,538
that Enlil was a term
used for the leader
324
00:30:06,538 --> 00:30:10,108
and was thus passed
on like the term
325
00:30:10,108 --> 00:30:12,510
king or Pharaoh is passed on.
326
00:30:17,649 --> 00:30:20,718
It was also the
title of the sun,
327
00:30:20,718 --> 00:30:24,155
which of course would
seem to be eternal.
328
00:30:41,172 --> 00:30:44,075
Part of the Sumerian
creation myth states
329
00:30:44,075 --> 00:30:47,245
at Karsak, where
heaven and earth met,
330
00:30:48,713 --> 00:30:53,318
the heavenly assembly, the
great sons of Anu, arrived,
331
00:30:53,318 --> 00:30:54,886
the many wise ones.
332
00:30:56,454 --> 00:30:58,890
The Anunnaki seem
to have arrived
333
00:30:58,890 --> 00:31:01,659
from another land
across the sea.
334
00:31:01,659 --> 00:31:03,628
They brought with
them special knowledge
335
00:31:03,628 --> 00:31:06,197
unknown to the
previous inhabitants.
336
00:31:13,137 --> 00:31:17,342
It is said mankind learned
from the shining ones,
337
00:31:17,342 --> 00:31:19,410
they set things in order.
338
00:31:35,426 --> 00:31:39,530
We could ask why they felt they
had to set things in order.
339
00:31:39,530 --> 00:31:42,133
Perhaps this order
has something to do
340
00:31:42,133 --> 00:31:45,770
with the chaotic aftermath
of a global calamity
341
00:31:45,770 --> 00:31:48,039
that had destroyed
their homeland,
342
00:31:48,039 --> 00:31:49,540
according to the accounts.
343
00:31:51,609 --> 00:31:55,780
A flood, for instance, appears
in myths across the world.
344
00:32:08,693 --> 00:32:11,896
In the famous
Sumerian kings list,
345
00:32:11,896 --> 00:32:15,266
we are told that the
Anunnaki ruled in Sumeria
346
00:32:15,266 --> 00:32:18,036
both before and
after the deluge,
347
00:32:19,470 --> 00:32:21,105
and that it was after the deluge
348
00:32:21,105 --> 00:32:23,274
that they then set
kings on the throne
349
00:32:23,274 --> 00:32:27,111
to govern the land and
rule in their stead.
350
00:32:27,111 --> 00:32:29,747
However, if we are to
believe the accounts
351
00:32:29,747 --> 00:32:31,916
given of the fish beings,
352
00:32:31,916 --> 00:32:34,719
we are also told that
these shining ones
353
00:32:34,719 --> 00:32:38,656
had first come ashore
from their submerged land
354
00:32:38,656 --> 00:32:41,025
after a similar catastrophe,
355
00:32:41,025 --> 00:32:43,795
an earlier one than
the deluge related
356
00:32:43,795 --> 00:32:46,397
in the bible and other sources.
357
00:33:00,278 --> 00:33:03,314
Could these great
global flood disasters
358
00:33:03,314 --> 00:33:06,784
in fact be bringing together
tales of a much earlier flood
359
00:33:06,784 --> 00:33:10,888
and so scientists are
searching for the wrong period?
360
00:33:10,888 --> 00:33:13,091
It's possible that
the shining ones knew
361
00:33:13,091 --> 00:33:16,794
when these catastrophic
events were going to happen
362
00:33:16,794 --> 00:33:19,097
and had predicted the deluge,
363
00:33:19,097 --> 00:33:23,101
hence, Noah being born
to prepare for the event.
364
00:33:23,101 --> 00:33:26,204
(tense string music)
365
00:33:34,679 --> 00:33:37,615
This theory is supported
by the information
366
00:33:37,615 --> 00:33:39,650
encoded in various sources
367
00:33:39,650 --> 00:33:43,654
which lead us to the symbol
of the Ouroboros snake
368
00:33:43,654 --> 00:33:44,922
and its deeper meaning.
369
00:33:46,290 --> 00:33:50,261
It is as if again these
people had profound knowledge
370
00:33:50,261 --> 00:33:54,432
of cycles, and in
particular the 25,800 year
371
00:33:55,900 --> 00:33:58,636
processional cycle which
was believed to have begun
372
00:33:58,636 --> 00:34:02,473
with the tilting of the Earth
from its upright position.
373
00:34:18,156 --> 00:34:20,690
It would appear that it
was believed that these
374
00:34:20,690 --> 00:34:23,427
recurring catastrophes
were linked to
375
00:34:23,428 --> 00:34:26,931
the beginning and end point
of the processional cycle,
376
00:34:26,931 --> 00:34:29,699
linked to the very
event that caused
377
00:34:29,699 --> 00:34:32,035
the Earth to incline
in the first place.
378
00:34:37,341 --> 00:34:39,243
This does not necessarily prove
379
00:34:39,243 --> 00:34:41,913
that the Earth's axis
was once upright,
380
00:34:41,913 --> 00:34:44,982
however it does mean
that it was believed
381
00:34:44,982 --> 00:34:46,951
the axis was vertical,
382
00:34:46,951 --> 00:34:49,353
and thus revealing
an amazing knowledge
383
00:34:49,353 --> 00:34:51,923
of the heavens and
Earth's place in it.
384
00:34:58,096 --> 00:35:00,731
There is evidence that
the ecliptic center
385
00:35:00,731 --> 00:35:02,700
was the abode of the father god,
386
00:35:02,700 --> 00:35:05,736
as this was actually named Anu
387
00:35:05,736 --> 00:35:09,874
as well as the Eye of Ra
by the ancient Egyptians.
388
00:35:09,874 --> 00:35:13,044
(somber string music)
389
00:35:23,321 --> 00:35:27,024
Also, the ancient astronomers
of these shining ones
390
00:35:27,024 --> 00:35:30,228
must have believed that
the processional cycle
391
00:35:30,228 --> 00:35:32,930
was linked with the
Earth's own life cycle
392
00:35:32,930 --> 00:35:35,833
or reincarnation cycle,
393
00:35:35,833 --> 00:35:38,836
and so the Earth being
upright would bring
394
00:35:38,836 --> 00:35:41,539
a more harmonious and
balanced existence.
395
00:35:42,573 --> 00:35:44,876
No more global catastrophes,
396
00:35:44,876 --> 00:35:47,812
and no birth, death,
rebirth cycle.
397
00:35:49,213 --> 00:35:52,383
In other words, the Earth,
like the spiritual man
398
00:35:52,383 --> 00:35:56,187
who seeks to come off and out
of the reincarnation cycle
399
00:35:56,187 --> 00:35:58,723
and all cycles, for that matter,
400
00:35:58,723 --> 00:36:02,126
would have been seen to
be in the perfect position
401
00:36:02,126 --> 00:36:05,229
and the perfect
spiritual condition.
402
00:36:18,576 --> 00:36:23,181
We also find that these
people are also termed Igigi,
403
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:26,784
which was also the name of
the king after the flood.
404
00:36:26,784 --> 00:36:29,220
The Igigi in certain
texts seem to do the work
405
00:36:29,220 --> 00:36:32,857
of the Anunnaki, whereas
in others the are equal
406
00:36:32,857 --> 00:36:34,592
and spoken of in
the same breath.
407
00:36:47,338 --> 00:36:50,775
In the epic on Anzu,
the Igigi are superior
408
00:36:50,775 --> 00:36:54,946
in the sense that the Anunnaki
are of the Abzu or the deep.
409
00:36:56,647 --> 00:36:59,951
This, of course, must
remind us of the Hindu ideas
410
00:36:59,951 --> 00:37:03,487
of the Naga, serpent deities
who reside in the deep
411
00:37:03,487 --> 00:37:05,823
and are no less holy for it.
412
00:37:19,170 --> 00:37:23,441
In the Sumerian account,
Ninlil or Ninkarsak,
413
00:37:23,441 --> 00:37:27,411
lady of Karsak, the wife
of the leader Enlil,
414
00:37:27,411 --> 00:37:31,515
asked the council of seven
to create her an Eden.
415
00:37:46,097 --> 00:37:50,668
This is the very same Eden or
plateau as in the bible myth
416
00:37:50,668 --> 00:37:53,404
and the council of
seven is the same
417
00:37:53,404 --> 00:37:57,041
as the seven archangels
or messengers of the bible
418
00:37:57,041 --> 00:38:01,145
who came down from heaven or
the mountain or cosmic sky.
419
00:38:07,918 --> 00:38:10,087
Sumerians referred to Edin
420
00:38:11,489 --> 00:38:13,457
as the abode of
the righteous ones.
421
00:38:24,435 --> 00:38:26,671
The tree of life and
the tree of knowledge
422
00:38:26,671 --> 00:38:29,440
that stood in this
garden of Eden
423
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,009
are the secrets of
the shining ones,
424
00:38:32,009 --> 00:38:35,379
secrets which will stay with
them for thousands of years
425
00:38:35,379 --> 00:38:37,982
to be told only to
the highest shaman,
426
00:38:37,982 --> 00:38:40,918
adept, priest,
avatar, or prophet.
427
00:38:52,997 --> 00:38:55,099
In their dream-like trances,
428
00:38:55,099 --> 00:38:58,102
the shaman saw and
experienced the tree
429
00:38:58,102 --> 00:39:00,338
which took them to heaven
430
00:39:00,338 --> 00:39:02,473
and which later became
the tree of life
431
00:39:02,473 --> 00:39:04,241
in the Hebrew Kabbalah system,
432
00:39:05,376 --> 00:39:08,979
and as if reflecting
the seven chakra levels
433
00:39:08,979 --> 00:39:12,783
of the human spinal column
and the processes involved
434
00:39:12,783 --> 00:39:16,287
with ones own access to
the knowledge within,
435
00:39:16,287 --> 00:39:19,256
the Sumerians built their
towers, or ziggurats,
436
00:39:19,256 --> 00:39:21,258
with seven levels
437
00:39:21,258 --> 00:39:23,761
as attempts to build
closer to heaven,
438
00:39:23,761 --> 00:39:25,629
to be like the mountains,
439
00:39:25,629 --> 00:39:30,134
and link them with Earth as in
the dream of Jacob's ladder.
440
00:39:30,134 --> 00:39:33,404
(hopeful string music)
441
00:39:45,950 --> 00:39:48,386
It is said that
these shining deities
442
00:39:48,386 --> 00:39:52,089
also lived at the top of
the ziggurat or pyramid,
443
00:39:52,089 --> 00:39:54,191
the great house.
444
00:39:54,191 --> 00:39:58,028
We now know what the
ladder and these temples
445
00:39:58,028 --> 00:40:00,498
really stand for symbolically,
446
00:40:00,498 --> 00:40:03,601
but was Jacob's ladder
a similar construction
447
00:40:03,601 --> 00:40:05,302
somewhere in the near East?
448
00:40:13,677 --> 00:40:16,881
Jacob was, in fact, the
father of the 12 tribes
449
00:40:16,881 --> 00:40:20,050
and as such, the
father of the zodiac.
450
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,704
Reuben, Jacob's first
son, was Aquarius,
451
00:40:40,704 --> 00:40:44,542
hence the reason he
was unstable as water.
452
00:40:46,010 --> 00:40:50,147
Simeon and Levi were the
brothers and hence Gemini.
453
00:40:50,147 --> 00:40:54,318
Judah was the lion, and
Zebulun is Libra, the ship.
454
00:40:55,820 --> 00:40:59,757
Gad is Pisces, in that it
is a reversal of the fish
455
00:41:00,858 --> 00:41:04,228
serpent god Dak,
associated with Dagon,
456
00:41:04,228 --> 00:41:05,930
Oannes, Ea, and Henki.
457
00:41:07,331 --> 00:41:11,268
Dan was of the tribe of
serpents, an adder in the path
458
00:41:11,268 --> 00:41:15,673
who falleth backward
into the winter solstice,
459
00:41:15,673 --> 00:41:18,008
which means he is Capricorn.
460
00:41:19,410 --> 00:41:21,812
This is the same as
the later Daniel,
461
00:41:23,013 --> 00:41:25,950
again the shining
serpent Capricorn
462
00:41:25,950 --> 00:41:27,251
who traverses the heavens.
463
00:41:42,967 --> 00:41:46,470
We can now see that most
of these myths and stories
464
00:41:46,470 --> 00:41:51,008
are mere transiterations of
astrotheological ideologies
465
00:41:51,008 --> 00:41:53,310
associated with the zodiac
466
00:41:53,310 --> 00:41:56,146
and also the processional cycle,
467
00:41:56,146 --> 00:41:58,649
which can be used
as means to find
468
00:41:58,649 --> 00:42:00,885
relevant periods in history.
469
00:42:00,885 --> 00:42:03,954
(tense string music)
470
00:42:16,166 --> 00:42:19,336
Processional cycle
is intimately tied in
471
00:42:19,336 --> 00:42:21,305
with our own life cycle,
472
00:42:21,305 --> 00:42:24,575
and so we find that
many of these epithets
473
00:42:24,575 --> 00:42:26,911
given to individuals in history
474
00:42:26,911 --> 00:42:29,046
who may or may not have existed
475
00:42:29,046 --> 00:42:31,215
are really part of a code.
476
00:42:32,616 --> 00:42:35,986
This shows that the later
leaders and their priesthoods
477
00:42:35,986 --> 00:42:38,188
who were spiritual and god-like
478
00:42:38,188 --> 00:42:40,858
and also knowledgeable
in astronomy,
479
00:42:40,858 --> 00:42:43,427
were related to the
shining ones sect
480
00:42:43,427 --> 00:42:46,463
and even received their
knowledge and authority
481
00:42:46,463 --> 00:42:48,399
from the shining ones.
482
00:42:48,399 --> 00:42:50,134
They associated the shining ones
483
00:42:50,134 --> 00:42:53,237
with the solar and celestial
bodies which they studied.
484
00:42:54,204 --> 00:42:57,274
(tense string music)
485
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,456
The seven shining
ones or seven sages
486
00:43:12,456 --> 00:43:16,160
of different cultures
later became the gods
487
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,329
in men, incarnated as man,
488
00:43:19,830 --> 00:43:24,368
only then to be reunited with
a father god after death.
489
00:43:24,368 --> 00:43:27,071
This is basically
the Christian myth.
490
00:43:27,071 --> 00:43:30,207
It is the celestial
bodies being written down
491
00:43:30,207 --> 00:43:33,811
in human form, a
pantheon of seven
492
00:43:33,811 --> 00:43:36,814
and corresponding with the
seven planets in the heavens.
493
00:43:52,830 --> 00:43:56,033
The phrase "where
heaven and Earth met"
494
00:43:56,033 --> 00:43:58,402
is symbolic of the
sacred mountains,
495
00:43:58,402 --> 00:44:02,039
and this gives us the clue
that this could be somewhere
496
00:44:02,039 --> 00:44:06,343
with impressive heaven-like
mountains, such as Tibet,
497
00:44:06,343 --> 00:44:10,114
perhaps even the
ziggurats of Mesopotamia,
498
00:44:10,114 --> 00:44:11,882
or even the pyramids of Giza,
499
00:44:14,284 --> 00:44:17,421
seeing as these temple
constructions are based
500
00:44:17,421 --> 00:44:19,356
on the shamanic world mountain.
501
00:44:35,372 --> 00:44:37,975
We can see, then, that
many of the details
502
00:44:37,975 --> 00:44:41,378
included in the stories
related to the activities
503
00:44:41,378 --> 00:44:44,214
of these shining
ones are really based
504
00:44:44,214 --> 00:44:46,583
on these astrotheological
movements
505
00:44:46,583 --> 00:44:49,653
which they understood
to a great degree
506
00:44:49,653 --> 00:44:52,656
and have been encoded in
these myths and stories
507
00:44:52,656 --> 00:44:54,825
as a means to preserve
this knowledge
508
00:44:54,825 --> 00:44:57,161
and also convey this process
509
00:44:57,161 --> 00:44:58,829
to those who could
understand it.
510
00:44:59,697 --> 00:45:02,700
(tense string music)
511
00:45:17,281 --> 00:45:19,616
They added encoded information
512
00:45:19,616 --> 00:45:22,486
which also makes these
stories somewhat confusing.
513
00:45:23,587 --> 00:45:26,290
The story of the
Anunnaki is therefore
514
00:45:26,290 --> 00:45:29,660
not one just in the
region of Mesopotamia,
515
00:45:29,660 --> 00:45:31,795
it is in fact a universal system
516
00:45:31,795 --> 00:45:35,632
observed in the sky, and
this is why similarities
517
00:45:35,632 --> 00:45:38,669
can be found across the
world in ancient cultures.
518
00:45:55,152 --> 00:45:57,721
The biblical flood
myth matches that found
519
00:45:57,721 --> 00:46:00,090
in Sumerian epic of Gilgamesh,
520
00:46:00,090 --> 00:46:03,026
and ends with the Tower
of Babel in Babylon,
521
00:46:03,026 --> 00:46:05,162
which was part of
the Sumerian empire.
522
00:46:06,296 --> 00:46:08,298
This shows that the
secret knowledge
523
00:46:08,298 --> 00:46:10,601
associated with the shining ones
524
00:46:10,601 --> 00:46:13,971
ended up at that
time in Babylon,
525
00:46:13,971 --> 00:46:16,373
and then moved on from there.
526
00:46:30,954 --> 00:46:32,790
In the search for
the shining ones,
527
00:46:32,790 --> 00:46:36,460
we have come across numerous
groups, cults, and religions.
528
00:46:36,460 --> 00:46:41,098
In ancient Sumeria, we find
the Egregore, or watchers,
529
00:46:41,098 --> 00:46:44,968
who are thought to be the angels
of the lord from the bible
530
00:46:44,968 --> 00:46:47,604
and again, the numerous
epithets given to them
531
00:46:47,604 --> 00:46:49,907
tells us they too
were the shining ones.
532
00:46:51,008 --> 00:46:53,811
Enoch wrote about them,
in fact, for them,
533
00:46:53,811 --> 00:46:56,914
in the book of Enoch,
which was later suppressed.
534
00:46:58,515 --> 00:47:01,952
(mysterious string music)
535
00:47:12,896 --> 00:47:15,499
In the bible and
the Book of Enoch,
536
00:47:15,499 --> 00:47:17,601
these shining ones
are called angels,
537
00:47:17,601 --> 00:47:19,937
archangels, or cherubim.
538
00:47:26,009 --> 00:47:29,246
Unless the literature
is purely apocryphal,
539
00:47:29,246 --> 00:47:31,048
we find that in the bible,
540
00:47:31,048 --> 00:47:34,218
the angel figures are
simply earthly men.
541
00:47:35,419 --> 00:47:38,922
In the bible, we do not
find angels with wings.
542
00:47:38,922 --> 00:47:43,060
There are no original stories
of them being supernatural.
543
00:47:43,060 --> 00:47:46,530
They are, in fact,
quite ordinary.
544
00:47:46,530 --> 00:47:49,733
It is always Gabriel,
meaning Man of God,
545
00:47:49,733 --> 00:47:53,804
who informs the people
of a coming child birth.
546
00:47:53,804 --> 00:47:55,706
Was he the shaman, the doctor?
547
00:47:56,673 --> 00:47:59,743
(tense string music)
548
00:48:13,056 --> 00:48:15,692
Michael is the
warrior and protector,
549
00:48:15,692 --> 00:48:18,562
accompanied by angels
wielding swords.
550
00:48:22,766 --> 00:48:26,837
Each and every one of them
has their own specific duty,
551
00:48:26,837 --> 00:48:28,238
an Earthly duty.
552
00:48:29,373 --> 00:48:31,975
People with titles,
angelic titles,
553
00:48:31,975 --> 00:48:35,178
as messengers and
ambassadors of God,
554
00:48:35,178 --> 00:48:37,447
just like the early shaman.
555
00:48:43,287 --> 00:48:46,523
The title cherubim means exiles,
556
00:48:46,523 --> 00:48:50,427
and could be an indication
of the origins of the angels.
557
00:48:50,427 --> 00:48:52,629
Maybe they were ordered
to leave somewhere
558
00:48:52,629 --> 00:48:55,666
for not conforming,
perhaps Eden,
559
00:48:55,666 --> 00:48:57,601
where they had previously
been the watchers
560
00:48:57,601 --> 00:48:59,403
or the guardians of the garden.
561
00:49:12,049 --> 00:49:16,286
In Genesis 4:16, the land of Nod
562
00:49:16,286 --> 00:49:19,122
is symbolic also of
the people of Israel,
563
00:49:19,122 --> 00:49:20,958
as Nod means wanderer.
564
00:49:22,259 --> 00:49:25,062
It is not much of an
extrapolation to assume
565
00:49:25,062 --> 00:49:27,497
that the priesthood
were also wanderers.
566
00:49:35,305 --> 00:49:37,975
Another example
of symbolic titles
567
00:49:37,975 --> 00:49:41,511
is that of Enoch, which
means consecrated.
568
00:49:41,511 --> 00:49:44,681
(somber string music)
569
00:49:56,493 --> 00:49:59,296
When Cain and his
wife bore Enoch
570
00:49:59,296 --> 00:50:01,565
and built a city called Enoch,
571
00:50:01,565 --> 00:50:05,335
we have the people of Cain
being consecrated before God.
572
00:50:06,737 --> 00:50:09,539
Enoch, the consecrated
one, would later write up
573
00:50:09,539 --> 00:50:12,376
the history of his
fallen wanderers
574
00:50:12,376 --> 00:50:16,213
who spread across the globe
as the great shining ones,
575
00:50:16,213 --> 00:50:19,082
teaching, measuring,
and building
576
00:50:19,082 --> 00:50:21,451
the world's most mysterious
ancient monuments.
577
00:50:36,633 --> 00:50:39,870
Of course, we must not
forget the seraphim
578
00:50:39,870 --> 00:50:43,306
of Numbers 21:6 and elsewhere.
579
00:50:43,306 --> 00:50:45,842
These are not mystical beings,
580
00:50:45,842 --> 00:50:48,578
they have hands, a face, legs,
581
00:50:48,578 --> 00:50:51,148
but they do have powers from God
582
00:50:51,148 --> 00:50:53,617
because they are in the light
583
00:50:53,617 --> 00:50:57,120
and have the symbolic
wings of the early shaman,
584
00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:58,855
the bird of flight,
585
00:50:58,855 --> 00:51:02,192
the dream time trance
ability to fly.
586
00:51:02,192 --> 00:51:05,262
(tense string music)
587
00:51:15,405 --> 00:51:19,576
The name means shining
ones or fiery serpents.
588
00:51:24,347 --> 00:51:27,517
They are enlightened beings
by the power of the serpent.
589
00:51:32,722 --> 00:51:36,860
Mystical Jewish literature tells
us that the angels can fly,
590
00:51:36,860 --> 00:51:40,464
tell the future, shape
shift, speak Hebrew,
591
00:51:40,464 --> 00:51:44,401
and are emanations of
the divine shining light.
592
00:51:55,445 --> 00:51:58,482
In the Old Testament,
God is indistinguishable
593
00:51:58,482 --> 00:52:02,686
from the angel or
messenger known as Yahweh.
594
00:52:02,686 --> 00:52:06,523
He looks the same and acts
as his representative.
595
00:52:06,523 --> 00:52:09,025
There is no difference
here from the Babylonian,
596
00:52:09,025 --> 00:52:12,095
Egyptian, and shamanic practice.
597
00:52:12,095 --> 00:52:15,298
(somber string music)
598
00:52:23,940 --> 00:52:27,110
In the New Testament, the
angels actually take part
599
00:52:27,110 --> 00:52:30,013
in the judgment
at the end times.
600
00:52:30,013 --> 00:52:32,582
Alternatively, they may be those
601
00:52:32,582 --> 00:52:37,521
who had experienced
enlightenment and
then fell from grace.
602
00:52:37,521 --> 00:52:40,590
(tense string music)
603
00:52:51,568 --> 00:52:54,304
We are told that the
nephilim or watchers
604
00:52:54,304 --> 00:52:58,041
began to mix with the
indigenous people.
605
00:52:58,041 --> 00:53:00,243
These were the angels
who seemed to have been
606
00:53:00,243 --> 00:53:02,512
the military arm of
the shining ones,
607
00:53:02,512 --> 00:53:06,683
and who were initially employed
to guard the garden of Eden.
608
00:53:22,632 --> 00:53:26,303
It came to pass when the
children of men had multiplied,
609
00:53:26,303 --> 00:53:28,605
but in those days
were born unto them
610
00:53:28,605 --> 00:53:31,007
beautiful and comely daughters,
611
00:53:31,007 --> 00:53:33,810
and the angels, the
children of heaven,
612
00:53:33,810 --> 00:53:37,681
saw and lusted after them
and said to one another
613
00:53:37,681 --> 00:53:40,283
"come, let us choose as wives
614
00:53:40,283 --> 00:53:44,487
"from among the children of
men and beget us children."
615
00:53:44,487 --> 00:53:48,058
And Semjaza, who was their
leader, said unto them
616
00:53:48,058 --> 00:53:52,028
"I fear ye will not indeed
agree to do this deed
617
00:53:52,028 --> 00:53:56,866
"and I alone shall have to pay
the penalty of a great sin,"
618
00:53:56,866 --> 00:53:59,669
and they all
answered him and said
619
00:53:59,669 --> 00:54:01,605
"let us all swear an oath
620
00:54:01,605 --> 00:54:05,141
"and all bind ourselves
by mutual implications
621
00:54:05,141 --> 00:54:09,246
"not to abandon this plan,
but to do this thing."
622
00:54:10,247 --> 00:54:12,382
Then swear they all together
623
00:54:12,382 --> 00:54:16,419
and bound themselves by
mutual implications upon it.
624
00:54:16,419 --> 00:54:19,522
(tense string music)
625
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:34,871
From this union, a
hybrid race was produced,
626
00:54:34,871 --> 00:54:37,440
a race of giants,
so we are told.
627
00:54:45,015 --> 00:54:47,117
And all the others
together with them
628
00:54:47,117 --> 00:54:51,054
took unto them wives and
each chose for himself one
629
00:54:51,054 --> 00:54:53,623
and they began to go into them
630
00:54:53,623 --> 00:54:55,925
and to defile
themselves with them,
631
00:54:55,925 --> 00:54:58,728
and they taught them
charms and enchantments
632
00:54:58,728 --> 00:55:00,297
and the cutting of roots
633
00:55:00,297 --> 00:55:02,766
and made them
acquainted with plants
634
00:55:02,766 --> 00:55:04,567
and they became pregnant
635
00:55:04,567 --> 00:55:08,972
and they bear great giants
whose height was 3,000 ells,
636
00:55:08,972 --> 00:55:11,608
who consumed all the
acquisitions of men
637
00:55:11,608 --> 00:55:14,577
and when men could no
longer sustain them,
638
00:55:14,577 --> 00:55:18,181
the giants turned against
them and devoured mankind.
639
00:55:19,282 --> 00:55:21,418
They began to sin
against birds and beasts
640
00:55:21,418 --> 00:55:25,088
and reptiles and fish, and
to devour one another's flesh
641
00:55:25,088 --> 00:55:27,424
and drink the blood.
642
00:55:27,424 --> 00:55:29,526
And then the Earth
laid accusations
643
00:55:29,526 --> 00:55:31,795
against the lawless ones,
644
00:55:31,795 --> 00:55:35,498
and then Michael, Auriel,
Raphael, and Gabriel
645
00:55:35,498 --> 00:55:38,168
looked down from heaven and saw
646
00:55:38,168 --> 00:55:40,904
much blood being
shed upon the earth
647
00:55:40,904 --> 00:55:44,040
and all lawlessness being
wrought upon the earth.
648
00:55:45,408 --> 00:55:48,578
(somber string music)
649
00:55:54,484 --> 00:55:57,954
These insurgents also
passed on knowledge
650
00:55:57,954 --> 00:56:01,791
and taught them combat
and how to make weapons.
651
00:56:06,162 --> 00:56:09,099
And Azazel taught
men to make swords
652
00:56:09,099 --> 00:56:12,402
and knives and shields
and breastplates,
653
00:56:12,402 --> 00:56:15,004
and made know to them
the metals of the earth
654
00:56:15,004 --> 00:56:16,873
and the art of working them,
655
00:56:16,873 --> 00:56:20,043
and bracelets and ornaments
and the use of antimony
656
00:56:20,043 --> 00:56:22,746
and the beautifying
of the eyelids
657
00:56:22,746 --> 00:56:27,250
and all kinds of costly stones
in all color and tinctures.
658
00:56:27,250 --> 00:56:29,619
And there arose much godlessness
659
00:56:29,619 --> 00:56:31,855
and they committed fornication
660
00:56:31,855 --> 00:56:33,523
and they were led astray
661
00:56:33,523 --> 00:56:36,426
and became corrupt
in all their ways.
662
00:56:36,426 --> 00:56:39,662
Samyaza taught enchantments
and root cuttings,
663
00:56:39,662 --> 00:56:43,099
armorers the resolving
of enchantments.
664
00:56:43,099 --> 00:56:45,602
Barachiel taught astrology,
665
00:56:45,602 --> 00:56:47,404
talked about the constellations,
666
00:56:47,404 --> 00:56:50,707
Ezakiel the knowledge
of the clouds,
667
00:56:50,707 --> 00:56:53,209
Arakiel the signs of the earth,
668
00:56:53,209 --> 00:56:55,845
Shamshiel the signs of the sun,
669
00:56:55,845 --> 00:56:58,481
and Sariel the
course of the moon.
670
00:56:58,481 --> 00:57:01,251
And as men perished, they cried,
671
00:57:01,251 --> 00:57:02,886
and their cry went up to heaven.
672
00:57:13,897 --> 00:57:16,266
And all this was
seen as a violation
673
00:57:16,266 --> 00:57:20,336
against a set of laws laid
down by the shining ones
674
00:57:20,336 --> 00:57:22,405
who were possessive
of their knowledge.
675
00:57:28,978 --> 00:57:31,881
Thou seest that
Azazel hath done,
676
00:57:31,881 --> 00:57:34,784
you hath taught all
unrighteousness on Earth
677
00:57:34,784 --> 00:57:37,153
and revealed the eternal secrets
678
00:57:37,153 --> 00:57:39,255
which were preserved in heaven
679
00:57:39,255 --> 00:57:41,658
which men were
striving to learn.
680
00:57:41,658 --> 00:57:44,928
And Samyaza to whom thou
hast given authority
681
00:57:44,928 --> 00:57:47,497
to bear rule over his associates
682
00:57:47,497 --> 00:57:50,266
and they have gone to the
daughters of men upon the Earth
683
00:57:50,266 --> 00:57:53,736
and have slept with the women
and have defiled themselves
684
00:57:53,736 --> 00:57:56,206
and revealed to them
all kinds of sins,
685
00:57:56,206 --> 00:57:59,209
and the women have born giants
686
00:57:59,209 --> 00:58:01,811
and the whole Earth
has thereby been filled
687
00:58:01,811 --> 00:58:03,646
with blood and unrighteousness.
688
00:58:04,948 --> 00:58:08,051
(tense string music)
689
00:58:16,860 --> 00:58:21,364
Enoch, the scribe who was
taught by the shining ones
690
00:58:21,364 --> 00:58:24,968
was then employed as a
messenger or intermediary
691
00:58:24,968 --> 00:58:28,471
between the shining ones
and these fallen ones
692
00:58:28,471 --> 00:58:31,307
who had decided to
abandon their divinity,
693
00:58:31,307 --> 00:58:33,276
to live amongst
the tribes of man.
694
00:58:45,488 --> 00:58:48,324
Enoch was then sent
to tell the insurgents
695
00:58:48,324 --> 00:58:51,594
that a severe sentence
had been passed on them
696
00:58:51,594 --> 00:58:54,063
and that they were
soon to be punished.
697
00:58:54,063 --> 00:58:57,500
In brief, the punishment
sent is the flood.
698
00:58:58,401 --> 00:59:01,504
(somber string music)
699
00:59:10,513 --> 00:59:12,849
It is as if the
shining ones wanted to
700
00:59:12,849 --> 00:59:15,451
wash away the sins of the Earth
701
00:59:15,451 --> 00:59:19,322
that had been created by their
own kid, the fallen ones.
702
00:59:26,296 --> 00:59:28,932
In the bible, we
are told that God,
703
00:59:28,932 --> 00:59:31,568
or rather the gods
known as Elohim,
704
00:59:31,568 --> 00:59:34,537
spoke to Noah, telling
him that the seasons
705
00:59:34,537 --> 00:59:37,273
of summer and winter
would be more extreme
706
00:59:37,273 --> 00:59:38,975
from the time of
the flood onward.
707
00:59:48,952 --> 00:59:51,721
This both supports and
is supported in turn
708
00:59:51,721 --> 00:59:54,857
by the Book of Enoch,
which states how
709
00:59:54,857 --> 00:59:59,128
in those days, Noah saw
that the Earth had sunk down
710
00:59:59,128 --> 01:00:01,664
and that destruction was nigh,
711
01:00:01,664 --> 01:00:06,135
and he said "tell me, what is
transacting upon the Earth?
712
01:00:06,135 --> 01:00:10,139
"For the Earth labors and
is violently shaking."
713
01:00:22,652 --> 01:00:25,822
In the King James version
of the bible we find this,
714
01:00:25,822 --> 01:00:29,626
behold, the lord
maketh the Earth empty
715
01:00:29,626 --> 01:00:33,229
and maketh it waste and
turneth it upside down
716
01:00:33,229 --> 01:00:37,200
and scatterth abroad
the inhabitants thereof.
717
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:41,204
The Earth shall reel to
and fro like a drunkard.
718
01:00:52,448 --> 01:00:55,184
In Psalm 68:8 it is written
719
01:00:55,184 --> 01:00:58,621
the Earth shook, the
heavens also dropped
720
01:00:58,621 --> 01:01:01,791
at the presence of God,
and even Sinai itself
721
01:01:01,791 --> 01:01:03,826
was moved at the
presence of God.
722
01:01:11,100 --> 01:01:13,736
The heavens dropping would mean
723
01:01:13,736 --> 01:01:16,639
that to the observers
in the Sinai region,
724
01:01:16,639 --> 01:01:19,208
the earth beneath
their feet was tipping
725
01:01:19,208 --> 01:01:21,878
relatively upward and northward.
726
01:01:21,878 --> 01:01:25,281
In his written book,
Timaeus and Critias,
727
01:01:25,281 --> 01:01:28,317
Plato describes an
awful catastrophe
728
01:01:28,317 --> 01:01:31,654
in which the Earth moved
forwards and backwards
729
01:01:31,654 --> 01:01:35,425
and again to right and left
and upwards and downwards,
730
01:01:35,425 --> 01:01:38,628
wandering every way
in all six directions.
731
01:01:40,263 --> 01:01:42,865
But as many scholars
and researchers have
now acknowledged,
732
01:01:42,865 --> 01:01:45,268
the god of the
bible and his angels
733
01:01:45,268 --> 01:01:48,337
are said to be the
Sumerian Anu and his sons
734
01:01:48,337 --> 01:01:52,008
and entourage, the
Anunnaki or shining ones
735
01:01:55,712 --> 01:01:58,815
who are reported to have
landed in Mesopotamia
736
01:01:58,815 --> 01:02:00,717
and there created
the Garden of Eden.
737
01:02:05,555 --> 01:02:07,790
And so we must now
draw our conclusion.
738
01:02:08,891 --> 01:02:10,560
When we first started
out in this task
739
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:12,662
of discovering the Anunnaki,
740
01:02:12,662 --> 01:02:16,199
we found a complex and
mystifying series of tales
741
01:02:16,199 --> 01:02:17,967
that seemed to
make little sense.
742
01:02:24,006 --> 01:02:26,743
Slowly, we have pulled
apart the names,
743
01:02:26,743 --> 01:02:30,313
places, and myths to reveal
something very simple.
744
01:02:36,686 --> 01:02:38,988
Many thousands of years ago,
745
01:02:38,988 --> 01:02:41,624
something catastrophic occurred
746
01:02:41,624 --> 01:02:45,161
and a highly knowledgeable
and wise people fled.
747
01:02:52,602 --> 01:02:55,872
They eventually landed
somewhere in Mesopotamia
748
01:02:55,872 --> 01:02:58,241
where they came across
a less-developed people.
749
01:03:02,678 --> 01:03:06,048
Civilization emerged
as the new people
750
01:03:06,048 --> 01:03:08,851
taught their new
people how to build,
751
01:03:08,851 --> 01:03:13,022
mathematics, astronomy,
agriculture, and much more.
752
01:03:18,594 --> 01:03:21,931
Their wisdom was so great
that later generations
753
01:03:21,931 --> 01:03:23,900
would call them gods and angels.
754
01:03:30,540 --> 01:03:34,310
They had descended from
the shining heavenly host,
755
01:03:34,310 --> 01:03:37,980
but division set in as
the two cultures bred
756
01:03:37,980 --> 01:03:39,849
and made the blood
line less pure.
757
01:03:45,822 --> 01:03:48,324
The watchers, who had gone bad,
758
01:03:48,324 --> 01:03:50,827
and the shining ones,
who were not happy,
759
01:03:54,063 --> 01:03:56,999
in a simple tale that
has become very complex
760
01:03:56,999 --> 01:03:58,835
over vast periods of time.
761
01:04:01,838 --> 01:04:05,508
In our age, it is being
confused yet further
762
01:04:05,508 --> 01:04:08,344
by the addition of
extraterrestrial origins
763
01:04:08,344 --> 01:04:09,712
for the Anunnaki.
764
01:04:13,783 --> 01:04:16,586
There is, however, no
need for such imaginings.
765
01:04:17,753 --> 01:04:20,223
There is simply a need
to understand the time,
766
01:04:20,223 --> 01:04:23,893
culture, belief
systems, and mind
767
01:04:23,893 --> 01:04:25,962
of our very human ancestors.
768
01:04:29,732 --> 01:04:32,401
(upbeat music)
