Germans=Vikings=Iranians='Aryans'?

How did Vikings cause the Crusades and get to Persia?

The northern European wasteland (Lapland) of Scandinavia, the least desirable piece of Europe, was originally populated by Germans (a.k.a. the native Samis), who as Vikings ("Pirates") did what they could with it until they reached maximum success by domesticating cows and killing fish? So they left to trade, raid, and invade others to prosper. Hearing their sagas say they were originally from Kerman, Iran, they traveled the Volga River, visited, and found an advanced Persian/Arabian culture they wanted to imitate? These were the "Aryans" (Iranians) the Germans thought they should be or were meant to be or originally were? So they returned and made Scandinavia and the best place to live and nearby Germany (Kermany) the Aryan (Iranian) capital (because the Nazis found this story appealing)?

German history

The City of Kerman (which gives us the word "German") was founded as a defensive outpost, with the name Veh-Ardashir, by Ardashir I, founder of the Sasanian Empire, in the 3rd century AD [8].

After the Battle of Nahāvand in 642, the city came under Muslim rule. At first, the city's relative isolation allowed Kharijites and Zoroastrians to thrive there, but the Kharijites were wiped out in 698, and the population was mostly Muslim by 725.

Already in the eighth century the city was famous for its manufacture of cashmere wool shawls and other textiles. The Abbasid Caliphate's authority over the region was weak, and power passed in the tenth century to the Buyid emirs.

We've come to kill and rape this this culture, but don't

call us "invaders" because no one is "native" anywhere

The region and city fell to Mahmud of Ghazni in the late tenth century. The name Kerman was adopted at some point in the tenth century [9].

Under the rule of the Seljuk Turks in the 11th and 12th centuries, Kerman remained virtually independent, conquering Oman and Fars [10].

When Marco Polo visited Kerman in 1271, it had become a major trade emporium linking the Persian Gulf with Khorasan and Central Asia [11].

Subsequently, however, the city was sacked many times by various invaders. Kerman expanded rapidly during the Safavid dynasty. Carpets and rugs were exported to England and Germany [Anglo-Saxons loved rugs?] during this period [12]. More

Buddhist botany: What plant was 'Soma'?

The shamanic Fly agaric mushroom (Amanita muscaria) is used as a European entheogen.

(Rajada's World) "Soma: The Psychedelic Origins of Religious Experience"

Altered states of consciousness? The first ever monthly Universal Quest Salon (universalquest) was held on Sunday, August 23, 2015, in Conference Room 2 inside the India International Centre IIC). Founder, filmmaker, and inner-explorer (psychonaut) Raja Choudhury gave a talk and presentation followed by an open Socratic discussion in the company of Dr. Singh and friends, exploring how India's religions (and most religions of the world) have their origins in the psychedelic (entheogenic and sometimes hallucinogenic) experiences of shamans (priestesses and priests), seers, and mystics and how Soma became a sacred and integral part of Indian religious life even after its hallucinogenic use was abandoned with the evolution of advanced forms of Yoga and other inner-techniques.

Confusion and Denial: Historical Attempts to Identify the Soma Plant, Part 1

We can trade these worldwide

(On Paradise Earth) The exclusive use of poetic and metaphorical language to describe the soma-plant [the secret ingredient in the drink known as amrita or Greek ambrosia] in Vedic hymns is one of various explanations for the failure of modern linguists to ascertain the botanical identity of India's famous "plant of the gods [devas]."

Yet, related uses of symbolic and iconographic imagery in mythical literature during classical time periods provide additional evidence on which to base our general impressions of the plant itself, its habitat preferences, and the manners in which the plant was employed during libation ceremonies.

• Soma (a name for the moon deity, moon, and Monday) was also called the "elixir of life" [longevity, immortality = ionic (eternal now/timeless) life]."
• INGREDIENTS: Wasn't soma Afghani cannabis (ganja) steeped in fermented mare's milk (kumiss) with blue lotus (utpala)? No asafoetida. Add some Fly agaric or psilocybin and, pow, right to the moon, because these are forms of DMT (the Spirit Molecule in magic mushrooms)
• Isn't it strange that what we call "LSD" or "acid" is actually a mushroom (ergot fungus)? Now science distinguishes plants and fungi, but people do not. From ancient times, mushrooms were just very strange plants popping up. So might an ingredient have been contaminated rye or barley?
• Harvard doctor (Wm. Hurt) becomes obsessed with Altered States

Community of seekers (psychedelicsangha.org)

Scholarly efforts have yet to settle on an agreeable determination of the soma-plant's identity.

But many conjectures and hypotheses on the issue have been proposed over the last two centuries, with many specialists favoring the plant's identification as an Ephedra species from the arid steppes of Central Asia.

What do entheogens do to perception?

Nevertheless, from a strictly botanical perspective, most if not all previous proposals on soma's identity are questionable at best.

This video explores some of the latest hypotheses and considers their unlikely relevance to soma's enigmatic nature and identity.

[It surely had to include a strain or variety of cannabis, perhaps referring to more than one brew (elixir), the way ayahuasca is composed of different sets of ingredients that have the same effect so are all simply called ayahuasca, yage, caapi, or natema.]

Vegan Potluck and Movie Screening (8/3)

WHAT HAPPENED?

It was incredible. The food was delicious. The attendees were kind. And the documentary was mind blowing. Highly recommended. The movie reveals the massive hidden industry of killing cows for flesh in Hindu India -- through corruption, bribes, deception, the slaughter of water buffaloes and, worst of all, the consumption of dairy. It is raising cows for milk and cheese that ends up leading to their slaughter for various reasons: when they get older and dry, when they are sick, when they are male and useless to milk producers, when they get injured, when it costs too much to feed them, when they are kidnapped from shelters to be slaughtered on the illegal market. Milk and meat are unhealthy, but people believe them to be "pure" or religious, and so it is consumed on a massive scale. But people are kept in the dark about what is going on. They see no reason to change their diets because they have been sold a set of lies that holds the system together.

Come enjoy a pleasant summer's evening of vegan treats, good company, and a screening of the new award-winning vegan documentary:

Longevity of the Buddhist-Bon Hunza people

HUNZA RIVER VALLEY, Pakistan - The mystery of the longevity of the formerly Buddhist and Bon Hunza (prior to Islamic invasion and forced conversion, leaving them as Shia Muslims). The Hunza are the people who do not age and live to be 120-140 years old.

(Unraveling the Scriptures) ✪ Members first on July 4, 2024. Ever imagine living to be 120 years old or reaching 140 while looking like a teenager? Or reaching 80 years old while looking 40 and remaining healthy? This video talks about the mystery of the Hunza people in Indo-Pakistan (formerly India before the Partition of 1947).

Tibet was a massive empire, with Lhasa as its capital, and Gilgit (Hunza) circle at left.

• 
  "Bon" refers to the indigenous shamanic traditions of these mountains, as practiced throughout the Tibetan Empire prior to Buddhism, at which time it melded with the esoteric teachings of Vajrayana Buddhism throughout the Himalayas.
• American longevity expert Dr. Joel Wallach (criticialhealthnews.com) insists the biblical phrase "land of milk and honey" does not refer to dairy and bee products but rather the frothy mineral rich waters coming down from glacial mountain streams and fruit nectar from trees growing on rugged terrain.

What are the secrets, to live in peace and not kill?

The Buddhist mountain people of Hunza take cold plunges, breathe fresh air, exercise daily, play sports until 100, eat mineral-rich food from the hills and valley, eat fresh low caloric foods, and live happily in close community. This is the Hunza River below the Himalayas and Karakoram ranges (close to the tallest mountain in the world, which is likely K2 rather than Everest), where beauty is the norm, much like the Buddha (Prince Siddhartha Gautama of neighboring Bamiyan, Afghanistan, called Kapilavastu in Gandhara in ancient times).

• Two main secrets of Hunza longevity (Prama) In sum, there are the two main secrets to the Hunza longevity lifestyle. The first is a stress-reducing, cheerful, optimistic, and celebratory lifestyle. The Hunza are known for their many family gatherings and festivals. The second is a nutrient dense diet free of sugar and processed foods, very low animal fat intake, and a nutritional regime high in nutrient rich plants—as well as probiotics from kefir and fermented foods.

Hunza's Buddhist past

.

Buddhism and, to a lesser extent Bön, was the primary religion in the area. The region holds several surviving Buddhist archeological sites, such as the Sacred Rock of Hunza.

Hunza Valley was central to the network of trading routes connecting Buddhist Central Asia to the subcontinent (India).

Ancient rock carvings look better. Hail Allah!

It also provided protection to Buddhist missionaries and wandering ascetic monks visiting the subcontinent, and the region played a significant role in the transmission of Buddhism throughout Asia [3] (along the Silk Road from the birthplace of the Buddha in Afghanistan and the birth of Buddhism in Bihar, proto-India).

Before conquest by Islam, the majority of the region practiced Buddhism. Since then, most of the population was converted to Islam.

The region has many works of graffiti in the ancient Brahmi script written on rocks (petroglyphs), produced by Buddhist monastics as a form of worship and culture [4].

With most locals being converted to Islam, those inscriptions had been mainly left ignored, destroyed, or forgotten, but they are now being restored [5].

Fact Check: Did the Buddha use cannabis?

Alejandro (TheHighestCritic, 11/20/20); Pat Macpherson, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

This cartoonish Fat Happy Buddha is NOT the Buddha of history. He is a bodhisattva named Putai, Budai, or Hotei. He was a kind, jolly, overweight monk who gave candy to children from a bag.

.

Buzznik Alejandro over at TheHighestCritic.com has a question, which he has already answered quite sure that he's right.

Q: Did the Buddha Gautama use cannabis?

Let's examine this Q from the view of a pot leaf

According, to, like, some mystical sutra, Bro, you know, um, Siddhartha, who later became Buddha, used cannabis. He was all Buddhafied! But, check this out, NOT how you would think, not in the traditional sense.

I didn't use weed either. I was a good monk

It's said that prior to his Great Awakening [his Maha Bodhi, which means prior to when he was the Buddha, which means the "Awakened One"], Buddha Siddhartha lived on nothing but a single cannabis seed per day for SIX YEARS! 🤯

• It's a beautiful legend, and we hope it's true because raw hemp seeds are a superfood, a miracle, a health-wonder full of Omega 3, 6, and 9 essential fatty acids in balance, which is extraordinarily rare in nature. Everyone should eat raw hemp seeds every day. Put them in a blender with pure water, and it's an instant healthy white nut-milk with no other ingredients necessary.

What’s interesting about this, is that cannabis only receives slight reference in Buddhist legends even though it is rather significant to the religion.

• This is because it is not significant to the religion or the PRACTICE of the Ennobling (Enlightening) Eightfold Path the religion teaches. In fact, the only thing we can think of relating cannabis bud, flower, dab (hash exudations), or the plant as an entheogenic drug, has to do with Buddhism is that the Buddha was a Scythian (Shakyan) from neighboring Gandhara (now Afghanistan, nearby but not in magical Nepal, which is high in the Himalayas) from the foothills of the Hindu Kush, which is part of the Himalayan range, far to the west of Nepal. The Scythians were originally nomadic wandering in Central Asia before settling and adopting an agrarian way of life. They did not drink ordinary alcohol. They drank a special kind made of fermented mare's milk. A mare is a female horse, and the low-grade alcohol made from natural yeast falling on lactose and souring it makes a kind of less addictive alcohol than toxic grain-based alcohol. The Scythians had a drink called soma (haoma) into which they put cannabis to make a kind of mundane ambrosia (amrita). Some may have been a general name because the real stuff seems to have been the entheogen blue lotus, a DMT-type substance also popular in ancient Egypt. It's hard to imagine that Siddhartha, a prince of a Scythian group called the Sakas raised watching dancing girls and musicians, would never have tried it. Cannabis grows wild throughout the foothills, where it originated as a plant.

Prince Sidhartha Gautama, who became the Buddha Gautama, lived in Lumbini in the Himalayan foothills of Nepal, a region that’s rich in cultivated and naturally occurring Cannabis indica known as Nepali Indica.

• Prince Sid, who became "The Buddha" by virtue of his spiritual awakening at the age of 35 after six or seven years of intensive endeavor on his quest to discover why we suffer and what can be done about it, was born in Lumbini Garden but he never lived there. He was raised in Kapilavastu (which Dr. Ranajit Pal has demonstrated must have been in Bamiyan, Afghanistan, and its environs, which we feel safe to speculate were Mes Aynak and Kabul (Kabil, Kapil, Kapilavastu) because he lived in three different places, three seasonal capitals that relocated by season, hot, cold, and rainy. He awoke to the Truth. There is no record of him smoking or consuming cannabis to get high or anything else. If the seed was eaten as a food, he might have eaten it but only if it were provided to him as he was a wandering ascetic living on alms, having gone East to proto-India, just south of Nepal, in his pursuit of enlightenment.

As the story goes, Siddhartha the wandering ascetic (doing tapas or extreme austerities and self-mortifications as misguided penance to compensate for this anti-spiritual body, a common practice among yogis) became so weak because of excessive fasting, that he resumed eating because a woman named Sujata and her maid offered him food.

He recovered his strength and realized the body is not a hindrance to spirituality. In fact, it can be a vehicle to it. His strength and health regained, he began his legendary meditation under the Bodhi tree. 

• It is called the Bodhi tree because bodhi means "enlightenment" or "awakening." Prior to his great awakening, it was not called that. The tree (Ficus religiosa, a giant pipal tree, which is like a banyan) drops tons of fruit, small figs that are not eaten (and who knows why because they are delicious and nutritious) except as a resource during famine. Religious studies teachers in the US note that the chemical composition of these figs is one molecule different from acid, LSD. The implication being, Wouldn't he have eaten these under that tree and otherwise fasting because he was not getting up to go on alms. And though no one was offering this food, the Tree was. He called on the Earth, in the earth-witnessing mudra, to vouch for him. We know trees have dryads. That's why he was fed by Sujata. She and her maid were making offerings to the tree spirit near their house as she wanted to get pregnant. She became pregnant, and this was the big offering in gratitude. Seeing him with his long hair, possibly in dreads from not washing it, they mistook him for spirit of the tree.

Woke-leftists-for-Aubrey drink Wood Milk :)

Dr. Steve Turley; Earthling Ed; Crystal Q., CC Liu, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Supreme Nurturing Mother Tara

Would you drink Wood Milk? I would. It sounds good. I wood spread it all over gluten-free sorghum and brown rice pancakes or sip it through a bamboo straw with lots of ice. I might even add coconut tree fruit and turmeric, maybe some MudWtr powder or vegan spices and call it chai. Wood would be good, syrupy maple flavored or oak acorn jellified, all that protein once the tannins have been leeched out. Yum, wood! Try sustainably grown hearts of palm. Tell me if it's good.

C'mon, laugh. It's funny. Don't make me shoot.

Aubrey Plaza is joking. She's a funny comedienne. That's what she does. She gets paid for it, in this case by the cruel dairy industry. Cruel? It keeps cows in pens and artificially pregnant for years with infected teats, pumping pus-filled "animal milk" full of lactose that most adult humans in the world are intolerant of. We cannot digest it, so we get gassy and bloated, harming our insides.

Mammal milk is for babies before weaning, after which most of us no longer make lactase, the enzyme that digests lactose. Leave cow milk to baby cows.

The Goddess nurtures us like a cow her young.

Drink human milk if dairy is so appetizing. Or be earth-friendly and eat raw soaked (and drained) nuts blended to make white water. The best "plant-based mylk" is made out of raw hemp seeds and pure water. Add a handful to a few cups in a blender, frappe, and enjoy immediately. It has all the nutrition filthy bovine-lactations stolen from enslaved beasts of burden are claimed to have. Oops, are we sounding like "woke leftists" who care too much about mammals (human beings and animals) and the planet mammals live on? We better keep quiet and let Dr. T. bask in his own happiness.

Woke leftists melt down over mockery

Remember that time Sister Aubrey offended Catholics for playing a wayward nun?

.

"Woke leftists meltdown after actress roasts them in hilarious video!!!" claims right-winger Dr. Steve Turley back on May 17, 2023.

Aubrey Plaza is pretty whacky and often funny, as he pitches sale prices (66% off) on all Mike the MyPillow Guy Lindell’s products. (Use code TURLEY mypillow.com/turley).

Doc also encourages future insurrectionists and Capitol rioters to join his growing "Courageous Patriot Network" (group.turleytalks.com/insider...) ❤ . Then he goes on to celebrate as Prof. "Jordan Peterson TORCHES leftist on trans issues!!!" Dr. T. sure loves them exclamation marks.
