A relief from the Ain Samiya goblet depicts cosmic order emerging from chaos (Regular Sigg)
.
World’s oldest depiction of Creation discovered
(The Telegraph) The earliest depiction of the creation of the universe has been found on a 4,300-year-old silver goblet discovered in the West Bank, Palestine.
The vessel shows “before and after” scenes with a human-chimera figure confronted by a monstrous snake [nagain Buddhism], before the snake is subdued and the Sun takes its place in the sky, held aloft by two deities.
Will KAOS destroy Order again?
(Get Smart) Will KAOS ever overcome order and CONTROL again?
Archaeologists say the images are an allegory for Order triumphing over Chaos at the beginning of time. The Sun is shown moving across the heavens in a celestial “boat of light.” It is the oldest known depiction of the formation of the cosmos and predates the Babylonian creation myth Enuma Elish – which was recorded on stone tablets – by more than 1,000 years.
“The goblet does not tell of a violent struggle between gods [devas and asuras], but of a peaceful process of cosmic ordering,ˮ said Daniel Sarlo, co-author of the paper about the discovery for the Luwian Studies Foundation, a non-profit research group based in Switzerland.
“It shows how the Sun is born, banishes chaos, and renews the world.”
Order over Chaos
The artifact, which is 3.1 inches (7.9 cm) high, is known as the Ain Samiya goblet, and was found in the 1970s near Kafr Malik in the West Bank.
It dates from 2650 to 1950 BC and until now, experts thought it was linked to the Enuma Elish, which recounts the struggle between the younger gods and the monster of primordial chaos. More

A journalist's 20-year fascination with the Manson murders leads to shocking new revelations about the FBI's involvement in this riveting reassessment of an infamous case in American history.
Over two grim nights in Los Angeles, the young ["hippie"] followers of Charles Manson murdered seven people, including the actress Sharon Tate, at that time eight months pregnant. With no mercy and seemingly no motive, the Manson Family followed their leader's every order.
CIA creation Charlie Manson, LSD narcissist
Their crimes lit a flame of paranoia across the nation, spelling the end of [the hippies' great counterculture reputation and] the 1960s. Manson became one of history's most infamous criminals, his name forever attached to an era when charlatans mixed with prodigies, free love was as possible as brainwashing, and utopia -- or dystopia -- was just an acid trip away.
Twenty years ago, when journalist Tom O'Neill was reporting a magazine piece about the Manso murders, he worried there was nothing new to say. Then he unearthed shocking evidence of a cover-up behind the "official" story, including
police carelessness,
legal misconduct, and
potential surveillance by intelligence agents.
When a tense interview with Vincent Bugliosi -- prosecutor of the Manson Family and author of Helter Skelter -- turned a friendly source into a nemesis, O'Neill knew he was onto something. But every discovery brought more questions:
Who were Manson's real friends in Hollywood?
How far would they go to hide their ties?
Why didn't law enforcement, including Manson's own parole officer, act on their many chances to stop him?
And how did Manson, an illiterate ex-con, turn a group of peaceful hippies into senseless and remorseless killers?
O'Neill's quest for the truth led him from reclusive celebrities to seasoned spies, from San Francisco's summer of love to the shadowy sites of the CIA's mind-control [MKUltra] experiments, on a trail rife with shady cover-ups and suspicious coincidences.
The product of two decades of reporting, hundreds of new interviews, and dozens of never-before-seen documents from the LAPD, the FBI, and the CIA, Chaos mounts an argument that could be, according to Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney Steven Kay, strong enough to overturn the verdicts on the Manson murders.

Some demons love anger. They feed on it. Others savor depression, malice, suicide, all kinds of ick. Imagine microbes in the dark underground, taking poop we discard and recycling it into something green and fragrant shining in the sun. This world would not be possible with our friends in the Fungi Kingdom. There are bacteria and all sorts of worms, insects, and creepy crawlies. We depict this lightly in haunted houses full of cobwebs, dark and cold. But it's right under our feet all the time. These hardworking germies love to eat, reduce, and recycle. A nightcrawler worm farm is the best thing for a garden.
They think we're opposites, the stupid SOBs
All we regard as bad, yin, is made good, yang, and the cycle continues. We regard things as "good" or "bad," but those are our labels, our biases, our judgments. In fact, things are such (thanks to suchness), just so, as it is, perfect in their relationship to each other. Nothing is wrong. It just seems like there is. So a sickly demon (imagine a pasty, balding, flatulent fatarse whose face is rotting right on the bone) sits on a throne, and the light beings (devas, angels) are angered at it. And it begins to glow. It likes it, all the attention. Even negative attention is attention. "There's no such thing as negative press," says my PR agent. "All press is good press" because it keeps a face in the news, in the headlines, on the lips of everyone until we don't know what's really going on, but our attention has been captured.
The Dhamma ("Law" or "Norm") may be expressed in the Buddha's words recorded in the Dhammapada (Verse 5):
Once there lived a demon who had a peculiar diet: He fed on the anger of others. And as his feeding ground was the human world, there was no lack of food for him.
He found it quite easy to provoke a family quarrel, or national and racial hatred. Even to stir up a big war was not very difficult for him.
And whenever he succeeded in causing a war, he could properly gorge himself without much further effort because once a war starts, hate multiplies by its own momentum and affects even normally friendly and peaceful people.
Don't you try to dictate what we're going to feel!
The demon's food supply became so rich that he sometimes had to restrain himself from over-eating, being content with nibbling just a small piece of gnawing resentment from his wife found close by, if the fast food in the fridge was all gone.
But as often happens with successful people, he became overbearing. And one day when feeling bored he thought, "Shouldn't I try it with the gods (devas, lit. the shining ones in space)?"
Afte little reflection he chose the Heaven of the Thirty-Three, ruled by Sakka, King of the Devas. He knew that only a few of these devas had entirely eliminated the fetters of ill-will and aversion [as is brought about by Buddhist practice taught by the Buddha to Sakka and other devas who visited him in a certain watch of the night], though they are generally far above petty and selfish human quarrels.
So by his power he transferred himself to that heavenly realm and was fortunate to arrive at a time when the divine king Sakka was absent: There was no one in the large audience hall.
So without much ado the demon seated himself on Sakka's empty throne, waiting quietly for things to happen, which he hoped would bring him a good meal of surly emotions.
Soon some devas came into the hall. At first they could hardly believe their eyes when they saw that ugly demon sitting on the splendid throne, squat and grinning, a ginger with his red toupee combover. Recovering from their shock, they started to shout and lament:
"Oh, you ugly POS demon! How can you dare to sit on the throne of our reigning monarch? What utter dastardliness! What a crime! You should be cast headlong into hell straight into a cauldron of boiling oil! You should be drawn and quartered alive! Begone! Begone!"
But while the devas grew more and more angry, the demon remained pleased because from moment to moment he grew in size, in strength, and in power.
The anger he absorbed into his system started to ooze from his body as a smoky mist glowing red, like his rosacea, psoriasis, alopecia, and vitiligo. His evil aura kept the devas at a distance as their radiance dimmed.
Suddenly a bright glow appeared at the other end of the hall. It grew into a dazzling light from which Sakka, King of the Devas, emerged. He who had firmly entered the undeflectable stream that leads towards nirvana (a sotapanna), was unshaken by what he saw.
The smokescreen created by the devas' anger parted when Sakka slowly and politely approached the usurper of his throne and said:
"Welcome, Friend! Please, stay seated. I can grab another chair. May I offer you a drink out of hospitality? Our Amrita [the "nectar of the gods," brew of immortality, the Ambrosia of the ancient Greeks] is good. Or do you prefer a stronger brew, Vedic Soma? Some Sura?"
While Sakka spoke such friendly words, the demon rapidly shrank to a tiny size and finally disappeared, trailing behind a whiff of malodorous smoke that likewise soon dissolved.
—Based on a sutra from the Samyutta Nikaya, a collection known as the Sakka Samyutta, Number 22.
The gist of this story dates back to the discourses of the Buddha. But even now, over 2,600 years later, our world looks as if large hordes of Anger-Eating Demons are haunting it, kept well-nourished by millions slaving for them all over the face of the earth.
Fires of hate and wide-traveling waves of violence threaten to engulf humankind. The grassroots of society are poisoned by conflict and discord, manifesting as angry thoughts and words and in violent deeds.
Is it not time to end our self-destructive slavery and our impulses of hate and aggression, which only serve the demonic forces?
This story explains how demons of hate can be exorcised by the power of gentleness and love. If this power of love can be tested and proven, at a grassroots level in our widely spread net of personal relationships, society at large, the world at large, will not benefit.
