Origin of the God YAHWEH (YHVH, Allah)

YHWH’s real source revealed — It changes everything!

(Dr. Fran Stavrakopoulou)

(MythVision TV) Dec. 1, 2025: In this groundbreaking documentary, we embark on a riveting journey through time and belief, tracing the enigmatic origins of YHWH, the name revered as "God" in Abrahamic religions [YHWH to Jews, Jehovah to Christians, Allah to Muslims?].

Guided by the profound insights of Dr. Joshua Bowen and Dr. Kipp Davis, two esteemed scholars in ancient Near Eastern Studies and biblical archaeology, this episode delves deeply into the dusty realms of ancient texts and artifacts. As we navigate through the complex tapestry of history, culture, and theology, Dr. Bowen and Dr. Davis illuminate the path, shedding light on how YHWH evolved from a regional tribal deity to a monotheistic icon, shaping the spiritual landscape of billions of fearful humans.

Join us as we uncover the layers of faith, myth, and history that surround the origins of YHWH, revealing a story as profound and enduring as the name itself.

Pagan origins of Adam and Eve story

(Historical Rabbit Hole)

Adam and Eve as kundalini energy (Artofit)

Is there a Buddhist parallel to this popular Western story of a Garden, a first human couple, a Wisdom Tree, and a tricky shapeshifting Serpent? There is. One need only look at the Agganna Sutta, "A Buddhist Genesis," a discourse given by the Buddha "On Beginnings."

But first it may be better to question the Sumerian, Jewish, Christian version -- made silly by its oversimplification over the millennia. The Christian version makes next to no sense, the Jewish interpretations a little more sense, and the much older Sumerian roots from texts like the Epic of Gilgamesh the Enūma Eliš. All of these are creation myths rooted in some kind of history.

Sadly, many readers misunderstand the Buddhist version of "Genesis." The Buddha is in no way explaining how life began. It is preexisting. He is merely explaining how it came to Earth and how karma (deeds) impacts the environment. As people become so, too, the world declines. We are not evolving so much as devolving from a Golden Age (Satya Yuga), and it is all cyclical. It happens again and again.

This is an echo of the older Vedic (Hindu) and Shramanic (Jain) versions, and that is because "Buddhism" does not begin with the historical Buddha. He is constantly referring back to previous buddhas (Great Heroes or Ford-makers as Jainism calls them, avatars and sages in the Old Vedic Religion that became Brahmanism and much later Hinduism).

But here's some insight in these themes from Urgyen Jigme (Mel Pine) in Melting Pot Dharma inspired by Amie Zor in Adam & Eve (& the Self):

Adam, Eve, and Mara (Buddhist story)

Don't touch that fruit! - But I need wisdom!!

At their pure inner core, all beings know that they are not separate from one another. In that state of mind, it is as if they live in a Garden of Eden, where they have no need for shame, no need to differentiate friend from foe, good from evil, and no need to imagine a creator god to oversee their behavior.

They have no expectations that their lives should be other than they are. 

It's all me. I created everything. - Even us?

But something in our nature likes to delude us into forgetting this oneness [or unity] of all things and into believing that life should be fairer than it is.

We give that demon a name, Mara [Death, the Obstacle to Enlightenment], to help us identify it.

Suppose that, a very long time ago, the first two human beings evolved from earlier beings. We’ll call them Adam and Eve. Their inner core, or Buddha-nature [or natural state of only dreaming and soon to awake], was pure, and they had no fear of other beings, no sense of good and evil, no self that was separate from other beings and from whatever force brought them into being.

Adam and Eve did have a sense, though, that one of the trees in their garden bore intoxicating [entheogenic] fruit that they should stay away from.

That was the Tree of Duality. Looking for an opportunity to trick Adam and Eve into believing they were distinct separate beings, Mara [the Deceiver] took the form of a snake to talk with them.

No beings had ever lied to Adam and Eve, and they had no way of knowing that the snake was not really a being, so they listened as the demon Mara told them how much fun it would be to become intoxicated on the fruit of the Tree of Duality.

Zarathustra, Iran (Persia)

So Adam and Eve ate the fruit and became drunk with duality. They began to see the world as a conflict between good and evil [as taught in the novel Near East religion of Zarathustra called Zoroastrianism].

They decided that only a cruel god would create such an unfriendly place, so they invented the god of the Old Testament and then hid from him.

Because Mara had taken the form of a snake, they feared and despised all snakes. They made distinctions everywhere: friend and foe, human and animal, smart and dumb, handsome and ugly, strong and weak, rich and poor. They began to see old age, sickness, and death as unfair, as burdens, as suffering.

Four prophets: Mani, Zoraster, Buddha, Jesus

They thought child-bearing was punishment. So that was how Mara, for thousands of years to come, deluded human beings into forgetting that they could return to the Garden of Eden.

Every parable is supposed to have a moral. I’d say the moral is: Some believe in an original sin that requires salvation. Other believe in a delusion that requires awakening. — Mel Pine (Urgyen Jigme)

Human origins in Turkey, Europe?

8.7-million-year-old skull just discovered in Turkey rewrites history!

These are my ancestors, the hominines

(Discovery Future) A groundbreaking discovery in Turkey (Türkiye) is challenging the long-held belief that humans and great apes evolved exclusively in Africa.

Meet Anadoluvius turkae, an 8.7-million-year-old fossil that has sparked a bold hypothesis: The evolutionary lineage leading to humans — known as hominines — may have originated in Europe before migrating to Africa.

• Out of Africa? Everyone descended from Eve of Africa? Hello, Gobekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe, cradles of civilization, 2023 in paleomammalogy
• Skull of 8.7-million-year-old ape found in Turkey suggests our ancestors evolved in Europe and NOT Africa, study claims | Daily Mail Online

Cuvier at Paleontology Museum

Unearthed from the Çorakyerler fossil site in northern Turkey (central Anatolia), this remarkably well-preserved partial cranium sheds new light on our evolutionary past.

Scientists believe that Anadoluvius turkae lived in dry forest environments alongside animals like giraffes, zebras, and lion-like predators, many of which later migrated to Africa.

The implications are profound. If true, this discovery suggests that hominines evolved and diversified in Europe for over 5,000,000 (five million) years before spreading to the eastern Mediterranean and eventually moving into Africa.

This challenges the traditional "Out of Africa" narrative and rekindles debates about where our earliest ancestors first emerged.

Join us as we explore the fascinating story of Anadoluvius turkae, delve into the broader context of primate evolution, and examine the shifting environments that may have driven these migrations.

What does this mean for our understanding of human origins? And what mysteries still await beneath the earth?

The Untold Origins of "All" Religions | Pt. 1: Tracing the First Gods of Ancient Humanity

(DLM Men's Lifestyle) Oct. 13, 2024: ABOUT: Daniel Maritz from DLM Men's Lifestyle goes back into the forgotten ancient history of humankind. This new and exciting series takes a deep dive into all regions of the world.

In the first video, Maritz goes back to ancient Mesopotamia (Iraq) to show who Christians are taught were the first humans and who their gods were. For the ancient origins of all religions, join Maritz on this Christian extravaganza for a biblical adventure back in time.

Dan Maritz dives deep into Christian fantasies, interpretations, limited biblical view (as opposed to the larger view of the books kept out of the Bible known as the Apocrypha and Jewish, Sumerian, Akkadian, and Persian sources) ORIGINS of ANCIENT HUMANITY, revealing who the FIRST HUMANS (Adaba or the Adama and Lilith, Eve, and others) were and the GODS they worshipped.

Why does it matter? To UNCOVER the TRUTH behind the origins of EVERY RELIGION (or at least the Abrahamic ones) we know TODAY. What we discover in this video might shock us (but probably not) and challenge everything we thought we knew (linking all the Near and Middle Eastern cultures).

Carl Schwab wants you to eat bugs and worms

(Bright Insight) Premiered June 10, 2024: #30 on Trending. This 2024 update on progress to excavate at Göbekli Tepe is genuinely shocking and disturbing.

• Gürcü Tepe: ancient village or settlement (megalithic portal map)

What is underneath?

"We are going to leave further excavations (beyond the 5% so far uncovered) to future generations"?  That's what someone said and what the team intends to do because of Schwab. Attention is being turned to an older neighboring site, another tepe or tell (Karahan Tepe or Gürcü Tepe?) instead. Which billionaire is making this decision? What does Klaus "World Economic Forum" Schwab (not to be confused with the original German archeologist to excavate here Klaus Schmidt) have to do with it? What are they hiding under structures and by planting an orchard of trees on an arid and barren hillside that cannot easily be dug up the more it grows and becomes established? Even ground penetrating radar will have trouble seeing what's underneath. What are they keeping buried, unexcavated, and therefore secret?

(The Why Files) The Why Files: Operation Podcast An average man from Derinkuyu, in the Nevşehir Province in the Central Anatolia Region of Turkey (Republic of Türkiye, a country straddling West Asia and Southeast Europe) was renovating his basement. Using only a sledgehammer, he broke through one of his walls and, strangely, felt fresh cool air coming in from the other side. Inside he found a small room-sized cavern.

Oops, they figured it out! Time for big revelations
