Anunnaki: Ancient Secrets Revealed (2024) s01e05 Episode Script

1
In an era shrouded
in the mists of time,
within the vast expanse
of an uncharted cosmos,
emerged the genesis of humankind.
How did the odyssey of humanity begin?
What secrets lie within
our primordial roots?
A tale woven into
the fabric of the stars.
The Sumerians claim that the
gods built the megalithic structures,
like
ziggurats and temples in Mesopotamia,
which is now modern-day Iraq.
It seems as if the knowledge of building megalithic structures
was then shared with people in ancient Kemet.
The Egyptian text talks about
the beginning time,
when the Neturu, also known as the gods of old,
came down to earth and
turned mud into a kingdom.
There are enough parallels
and indirect connections to suggest
that these early civilizations
were aware of each other
and influenced each
other in various ways.
The transmission of ideas
whether through trade, migration,
or other forms of contact
played a significant role in
the development of both civilizations.
According to the mainstream scholars
it was written and
developed around 3.400 BCE,
but, based on evidence
written in stone tablets,
we can hypothesize that their
writing could be many thousands of years older.
Prior to cuneiform, Sumerians
used hieroglyphs or pictograms.
Much later they evolved into
a series of wedge-shaped marks
on clay tablets.
This system was used for various
purposes, including record-keeping,
literature and
even legal documentation.
Cuneiform enabled the recording
of the world's first known literature,
including the Epic of Gilgamesh
a poetic work that explores
themes of heroism, friendship
and the quest for immortality.
Archaeologists and anthropologists
are mystified because it seems as if
if the Sumerian culture
arose out of nowhere.
Sumerian architecture
is renowned for its ziggurats,
massive terraced structures
that serve as temples.
The most famous is
the Great Ziggurat of Ur,
dedicated to the moon god Nanu.
These structures demonstrated
advanced engineering
and also architectural skills.
The Sumerians built some of the earliest
known cities, including Ur, Uruk and Eridu.
These cities featured
street grids, plumbing,
organized layouts with residential,
commercial and religious zones,
which reflects a very
sophisticated urban planning.
Not only were they able
to build cities here on Earth,
they understood the cosmos.
The Sumerians were skilled astronomers
that observed celestial bodies.
They created a lunar calendar
that included a 12-month year,
based on the cycles of the moon.
Their understanding of astronomy
influenced timekeeping,
agricultural practices, and
they even understood the zodiac.
They divided the sky into
recognizable constellations
and developed early forms of astrology
which linked celestial
movements to human events.
As a matter of fact,
the very first zodiac in history
was discovered at the Temple of Dendera, located in Egypt.
The city of Sumer was located
in Mesopotamia and was composed
of independent city-states, each
ruled by a king or a priest-king.
These city-states had
their own governing systems
and they were often
engaged in trade, warfare,
and diplomatic relations
with each other.
As a matter of fact,
one of the earliest known law codes,
predating Hammurabi's code,
was created by Sumerian king Ur-Namu.
It laid out legal standards for various
aspects of daily life and justice,
emphasizing fairness and
the protection of the vulnerable.
They were pioneers in metallurgy,
especially the use of bronze.
They created intricate
jewelry, tools, and weapons,
showcasing their
advanced craftsmanship.
The Sumerians were great artisans.
They developed pottery with
its great designs and forms.
Their artistic achievements extended
to sculpture, cylinder seals
and elaborate jewelry.
The Sumerians developed
advanced agricultural techniques,
including irrigation systems,
that maximized the productivity of their land and environment.
Their ability to produce surplus
crops supported urban growth and trade.
They also engaged in extensive
trade with neighboring regions,
especially ancient Egypt, exchanging
goods such as textiles, grains
and crafts for raw materials like
timber, metals, and precious stones.
The
Sumerian civilization's innovative spirit
and contributions significantly
influenced cultures in Mesopotamia and beyond.
Their legacy can be seen in various
aspects of modern civilizations,
from legal systems to urban planning
and literature, plus so much more.
In Sumerian mythology,
the Anunnaki were a group of
deities who played a central role
in the creation and
organization of the world.
Their influence extended to various
aspects of human civilization,
including
governance, agriculture, and societal norms.
The term Anunnaki means
those who came from the heavens,
or princely offspring
and these deities were often associated
with the sky and heavenly realms.
According to the
writing of the Sumerians,
the Anunnaki were not of this world.
As a matter of fact the Anunnaki were considered
to be the offspring
of the supreme sky god Anu, also
known as An,
and the earth goddess Ki, also known as Ninhursag.
This divine lineage positioned
them as powerful beings
with significant authority
over the cosmos and human affairs.
The Sumerians' influence
on the generations was tremendous.
They paved the way for
the structuring of cities,
establishing new language forms,
education, and technological innovations.
But where did their
knowledge come from?
Could it be it was handed
down from the heavens above?
Could their gods be the Anunnaki?
Most people know deep down inside
that we're not the only beings
in this vast cosmos.
So there must be a
releasing of information,
not covering up for thinking
that all beings are childlike
and shouldn't know this information.
This must become a part of the
dialogue, part of the conversation.
And then the discovery of the Anunnaki
will definitely
bridge the gap between science and spirituality,
because we will begin to
see that they are the same thing,
just using different languages.
Someone may be speaking Spanish,
someone may be speaking
German or English,
describing the same thing
with different language.
Science and spirituality
are now married.
They divorced somewhere
in the Middle Ages,
but they've now come together
and they're now married,
describing this vast sea of
unity, a cosmos that is conscious,
that wants to know itself as our life
and that there are so-called advanced
species that have been here before,
that have utilized
great scientific discoveries
to travel inter-dimensionally,
to travel throughout the cosmos,
at the same time recognizing
our unity, our oneness.
So this discovery is going
to free us from fear of ourselves,
fear of so-called other nationalities
and there will be a burst
of a sense of unity
and a releasing of the fear of death.
Science and spirituality, the
heavens and the earth becoming one.
But who are the gods?
What are their godly attributes
and what is their unique contribution to humanity?
The Anunnaki were part of a structured
pantheon with a clear hierarchy.
Anu as the chief deity
presided over the pantheon,
while other major gods, like Enlil Enki and Inhersag,
held specific
roles and responsibilities.
The sky god Anu was the highest
deity in the Anunnaki pantheon.
Anu was considered to
be the father of the Anunnaki.
He was associated with the
overarching order of the Universe
and the authority of kingship.
Enlil, on the other hand,
was the god of the air and storms.
Enlil was one of the
most powerful of the Anunnaki.
He played a crucial role in
the administration of the cosmos,
decreeing the fates of
the gods and of humans alike.
Enlil was associated with the
agriculture and also organization
of human society.
His brother, Ea (Enki), was the
god of water, wisdom and creation.
Enki was a pivotal figure
in Sumerian mythology.
He was credited with creating
humanity
and imparting knowledge and civilization.
He was also known
for his role in the flood myth,
where he helped preserve human life.
Their half-sister, Ninhursag,
was the earth goddess
and the mother of the Anunnaki.
Ninhursag was associated
with fertility,
childbirth and nurturing
aspects of the earth.
She was a key figure in the creation
of humans and the natural world.
Enki and Ninhursag created
the first humans from clay,
to serve the gods
and to tend to the earth.
This creation narrative
highlights the Anunnaki's role
in shaping the existence
of human civilization.
The Anunnaki were also
believed to have endowed humans
with essential knowledge and skills.
Enki, in particular, was credited
with teaching humans agriculture,
writing and other
parts of civilization.
This divine instruction was
seen as crucial for the development
of organized society.
The
Anunnaki were also responsible for maintaining cosmic and societal order.
They decreed laws, determined
the fates of individuals and nations
and ensured the stability
of the natural world.
Their governance was reflected
in the hierarchical structure
of the Sumerian city-states,
where
kings were seen as representatives of divine authority.
For the Sumerians,
worship of the Anunnaki was
central to their religious life.
Temples dedicated to these deities,
such as the Ziggurat
of Ur, for the moon god Nana,
were important religious
and cultural centers.
Priests and priestesses
performed rituals and offerings
to honor the Anunnaki
and seek their favor.
It is clear that the Anunnaki
were a powerful and influential group of deities
in Sumerian mythology.
They were deeply intertwined
with the creation and governance of the world.
They were seen to be architects
of human civilization,
providing essential knowledge
and maintaining cosmic order.
The worship and reverence of the
Anunnaki
underscore their importance in Sumerian culture
and their
enduring legacy in the mythology of ancient Mesopotamia.
It has become clear that the gods
not only pass down their knowledge to humanity,
but they have also influenced
the development of our societies
and the very emergence
of the world's religions.
While humanity still seems
divided
on diverse religious beliefs and practices to this day,
the existence of one common heavenly god
may
just bring our present world together.
The confirmation of we're
not the only sentient beings that exist
is going to impact
individuals' viewpoint of religion.
Oftentimes religions are emerging from
particular cultures,
in order to explain their particular
human origin,
or develop ways and laws of being on the planet.
Well, suddenly, or incrementally,
the religiosity that has separated
people
and the religiosity that has created a sense of myopic
point of view
will be shattered.
And we'll begin to see that, since
we're not the only sentient beings on the planet,
there'll
be perhaps a different religion,
a different cosmic, global point
of view,
rather than a very limited, divisive way of being on the planet.
"My god is bigger than your god."
"This religion is
better than that religion."
Perhaps what will emerge
will be a cosmic religion.
The word "religion" actually
means to return to the source.
Perhaps we'll all begin to return
to the source of all creation.
I think with the awareness
of advanced beings,
Anunnaki, extraterrestrial intelligence,
it will totally shift our
perspective on even religious text.
Religious text, some people
like to call it the word of God,
was actually the interpretation
of human beings
from inspired thought.
So it's corrupted
to a degree, it's limited.
Sometimes it's actually blocking
people from their power that is within.
People
begin to see through religiosity, because, within those texts,
there are things that aren't true,
things that are deliberately
keeping people from their power,
some of it is history, some of
it is not the mystery of unfolding.
People will be able to see all of
that with a new light of understanding.
If the gods helped
create human civilizations,
they must have also contributed
to the very creation of mankind.
But to what end?
What would be the purpose
for the heavenly gods
to create a material
being such as the human?
The
Sumerian epic Antrahasis describes how the gods,
specifically the Anunnaki,
decided to create humans
to alleviate their own burdens.
The lesser gods, named the Igigi,
who were tasked with laboring on
Earth to create and maintain the world,
grew weary and rebelled.
They sought relief from their toil,
leaning to a counsel of the
higher gods to find a solution.
They were prepared to go
to war if their needs weren't met.
Here's a quote from
the epic of Antrahasis:
"When the gods, instead
of man, did the work, bore the loads.
The gods' load was too great.
The work was too hard.
The trouble, too much".
Antrahasis 1:1-4.
To address the labor crisis,
the god Enki, also known as Ea,
proposed creating humans from clay,
mixed with the blood of a slain god.
This act of creation was meant to provide the laborers,
who would serve the gods and take over their burdens.
And here's the quote:
"Let the birth goddess create offspring
and let the man bear
the load of the gods".
Antrahasis 1:194-195.
There is another ancient epic
that parallels the Antrahasis,
and it's called "Enuma Elish".
In the Enuma Elish,
after Marduk's victory,
he decides to create humanity
to serve the gods
and relieve the Igigi of their labor.
Marduk consults with the Igigi
and the Anunnaki, to implement this plan.
And here's the quote:
"Blood I will mass
and cause bones to be.
I will establish a savage,
and man shall be his name.
Truly savage man I will create.
He shall be charged
with the service of the gods,
so that they might be at ease".
Marduk and the Anunnaki collaborate
in the creation of humans.
The blood of a sacrificed
Anunnaki god, named Kingu,
is mixed with clay to create humanity.
This act of creation is both
a form of justice against Kingu,
and also a means to
provide labor for the gods.
And here's the quote:
"They bound him, holding him before Ea.
They imposed on him his guilt
and severed his blood vessels.
Out of his blood
they fashioned mankind.
He, Ea, imposed the service
and let free the gods.
After the creation of humans,
the Anunnaki helped to
establish order in the world.
They construct a city of Babylon
and build a temple for Marduk,
reflecting the newly established
divine hierarchy
and the role of humans in maintaining this order.
Here's the quote:
"The
Anunnaki applied the implement.
With his blood, they created mankind.
He, Ea, imposed the service
and let free the gods.
After Ea, the wise, had created mankind
and had imposed
the service of the gods upon them.
That task is beyond comprehension". Tablet 6.
The Epic of Gilgamesh
is one of the oldest literary works.
Central to this narrative are
Gilgamesh's interactions with the gods,
including the Anunnaki, and his
deep-seated desire to escape death.
So Gilgamesh, the king of Uruk,
is described as two-thirds
divine and one-third human.
It's a lineage that connects
him to the Anunnaki and other deities.
His divine heritage grants him
extraordinary strength and abilities,
but his human side leaves
him vulnerable to mortality.
And here's the quote:
"Two-thirds of him is God.
One-third of him is human".
Epic of Gilgamesh. Prologue.
The
epic begins with Gilgamesh's exploits as a powerful and often tyrannical ruler.
His encounter with Enkidu,
a wild man created by
the gods to challenge him,
leads to a profound friendship.
Together, they undertake
heroic adventures,
including the slaying of the
monster Mbaba and the Bull of Heaven,
sent by the goddess
Ishtar in retaliation
for Gilgamesh spurning her advances.
And here's the quote:
"Enkidu, my friend, who I loved so dear,
who went with me through every danger".
Epic of Gilgamesh, tablet 8.
In the epic, the turning
point was Enkidu's death.
Stricken with grief and
fear of his own mortality,
Gilgamesh embarks on
a quest to find Utnapishtim,
the only human granted
immortality by the gods.
And here's the quote:
"Shall I not die too?
Am I not like Enkidu?
Grief has entered my heart.
I am afraid of death,
and so I roam over the steppe".
Epic of Gilgamesh, tablet 9.
Gilgamesh's journey continues
and is fraught with challenges.
He travels through dangerous
mountains, encounters mystical beings
and crosses the waters of death.
Upon reaching Utnapishtim, Gilgamesh
learns the story of the Great Flood,
which closely parallels
the biblical tale of Noah's Ark.
The gods decided to destroy humanity,
but granted Utnapishtim and his
wife immortality, for preserving life.
And the quote goes like this:
"There is no permanence,
Utnapishtim said.
Do we build a house to stand forever?
Do we seal a contract
to hold for all time?
Enki made his voice heard
and spoke to his servant.
Pay attention to my words.
Abandon your house. Build a boat.
Spurn possessions and save life".
Atrahasis 3:22-24.
The flood lasts for
seven days and seven nights,
covering the earth and
destroying most of humanity.
Atrahasis and those on the Ark survive
and the gods eventually
realized
they need humans to maintain their offerings
and services to the gods.
So in reality the offerings was the food of
the gods,
because they weren't going to hunt themselves.
"For seven days and seven nights
the torrent storm and flood came on.
The boat was tossed
about the great waters."
Atrahasis 3:30-33.
The Epic of Gilgamesh also contains
a flood story,
told to Gilgamesh by Utnapishtim, the
Sumerian equivalent of Noah.
This version shares similarities
with the Atrahasis myth,
but provides additional details
and emphasis on the role of the Anunnaki.
In this account, the
gods, particularly Enlil,
decide to send the flood to curb
overpopulation and the noise created by humans.
Here's the quote:
"The uproar of mankind is intolerable
and sleep is no longer possible
by reason of the Babel".
Epic of Gilgamesh, tablet 11.
Now Enki, again playing the
role of the savior,
warns Utnapishtim about the impending flood.
Utnapishtim builds an ark,
following Enki's instructions,
and survives the deluge with
his family and various animals.
The Atrahasis Epic is one of the
most detailed accounts of a flood myth
in Sumerian literature.
It explains the creation
of humans, their proliferation
and the divine decision to send
a flood to reduce their numbers.
The Anunnaki decide to send
the flood
because humanity's noise and population growth disturb the gods.
Enlil, one of the chief gods,
is particularly disturbed
by the clamor of humans.
And here's the quote:
"The land became wide.
The people became numerous.
The land bellowed like wild oxen.
The god was disturbed by the uproar".
Atrahasis 1:351-354.
The decision to send the flood is
made during a council of the Anunnaki.
Enki, a sympathetic god,
warns Atrahasis, instructing
him to build an ark to save himself,
his family and his local livestock.
Recently, Irving
Finkel, an Assyriologist
and assistant keeper of ancient Mesopotamian script at the British Museum,
has confirmed the existence of a Babylonian tablet
that
gives a detailed description on how the boat was built.
The tablet provides
an account of the ark story
that predates the biblical
versions by a significant margin.
Irving Finkel suggests that this indicates the
biblical writers
may have drawn from ancient accounts,
encountered by Hebrew scholars during the Babylonian exile.
These texts, which are clearly
older than the biblical narrative,
were first discovered in the
Middle East, in the 19th century.
These discoveries sparked
both confusion and excitement,
even leading to an expedition
of the missing piece of one such tablet,
amidst a
mountain of shattered clay fragments.
The tablet that Finkel studied
however, stands out as unique.
It is the only one that provides
precise instructions on how to construct the ark,
including the crucial detail
that the ark should be round.
And here's the quote:
"Tear
down this house, build a ship,
give up possessions, seek thou life
forswear belongings, keep soul alive".
Epic of Gilgamesh, tablet 11.
The flood narrative in the Epic
of Gilgamesh
describes a violent, all-encompassing deluge,
that lasted six days and seven nights.
After the flood, the gods regret their decision,
due to the loss of human life and their offerings.
And here's the quote:
"For six
days and six nights, the winds blew,
torrent and tempest, and
flood overwhelmed the world".
Epic of Gilgamesh, tablet 11.
The Anunnaki gods, including
Enlil, have reconciled with humanity,
and Utnapishtim and his wife
are granted immortality,
as a reward for preserving life.
And here's the quote:
"Enlil touched
our foreheads to bless us saying,
hitherto Utnapishtim
has been a mortal man.
Henceforth, he and his wife shall live in the
distance of the mouth of the rivers".
Epic of Gilgamesh, tablet 11.
The flood myths in the
Epic of Atrahasis and the Epic of Gilgamesh
highlight the complex
relationship between the Anunnaki and humanity.
These narratives illustrate themes
of divine retribution, protection
and delicate balance
between the gods and humans.
The Anunnaki intervention
in human affairs,
particularly through the flood,
underscores their role,
as both protectors and judges,
shaping the course of
human history and mythology.
The Sumerian tablets describe
epics and stories of the gods' presence on earth
and ancient floods
that disrupted civilizations.
But the ancient texts also
teach us of our own human nature,
the nature of the human spirit
and its infinite potential.
When we think about ancient
teachings from the past
and then we have this
discovery of Anunnaki,
the discovery of ancient beings,
We look at Kemet,
otherwise known as Egypt.
We can see right there on the
walls great teachings of unity,
great teachings of power
that was within us all.
And we can begin to understand
that, as human beings have evolved,
or devolved, some may think,
religion
has kind of shrunk us, to a degree.
So if we go back to the ancient
teachings,
we see it has come to free us.
And in that freedom
we understand that there
is a balancing in the Universe.
You can call it cosmic justice.
You can call it karma.
You can call it: the energy
you put out is going to come back.
I believe we live in
a return to sender Universe.
Whatever you send out is going to
return to you in some form or fashion,
energetically, hindrances, blockages,
self-sabotage or tremendous
openings for great possibilities.
Now all of this has been
captured in the ancient ones.
But the teachings are ageless.
Now it becomes more relevant.
It becomes more here and now.
The Anunnaki and the
Sumerians revered the stars.
They even had a star map, known
as the Nineveh Planet Sphere.
It is now held at the British
Museum and is known as tablet K8538.
The circular stone
cast tablet was recovered
from the 650 BC underground library
of King Ashurbanipal, in Nineveh.
That was located in
Iraq in the 19th century.
Long thought to be an Assyrian tablet,
the computer analysis has matched it
with the sky above
Mesopotamia around 3.300 BC.
And it proves to be of much
more ancient Sumerian origin.
The tablet is an astrolabe,
which is the earliest
known astronomical instrument.
It
consists of a segmented dish-shaped star chart,
with marked units of angle measure
inscribed upon the rim.
This amazing artifact depicts the
location of the Pleiades star cluster.
It also marks a path of a weaponized
asteroid,
that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.
The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in the Bible
is a 5.000-year-old story that has unexpectedly been corroborated
by the ancient Sumerian clay tablet
known as the Sumerian Planet Sphere.
According to the rocket scientists
Alan Bond and Mark Hemsell,
who spent eight years
researching the tablet,
the map describes a nuclear missile
strike
that destroyed the city of Sodom and Gomorrah,
killing thousands of people,
causing devastation
over 386.000 square miles.
The scientists call the
event "the Kofl's Impact Event",
which was equivalent to
more than 1.000 tons of TNT.
Interestingly the event was also witnessed
by a Sumerian astrologer,
on June 29th, 3.123 BC in the night
sky, shortly before dawn.
Here's
yet another reference.
"Sumerian mythology, a study of spiritual
and literary achievement in the third millennium
BC,
by Samuel Noah Kramer.
This work explores Sumerian
religious beliefs and myths,
providing context for understanding
the divine aspects of the shah
and its relevance to
the kingship and cosmology.
The Sumerian tablets were instrumental
in understanding the influence of the Anunnaki gods
on human civilizations,
but they also reveal the distinctive
nature of the kingship itself,
the thousand-year-long reigns
of the gods
and their mysterious, unbroken lineage since
the dawn of civilization.
The kingship was considered a divine
institution, handed down by the gods,
specifically the Anunnaki,
to ensure
order and justice in human society.
The following are seven
of the longest reigns
mentioned in the Sumerian kings list.
King Alangar of Eridu reigned
for 36.000 years, or 10 shahs.
King Enmenluana of Bata Bera
reigned for 43.200 years, or 12 shahs.
King Enmengelana of Bata
Bera ruled for 28.800 years,
or roughly eight shahs.
King Demuzet, the shepherd of
Bata Bera, ruled for 36.000 years,
or 10 shahs.
King Ensepadzadana of Larac ruled
for 28.800 years, or eight shahs.
King Enmendurana of Sephar ruled
for 21.000 years, or 5,83 shahs.
The Sumerian kings list
provides a fascinating glimpse
into how the ancient Sumerians
viewed their past
and the divine origins of their political system.
These extraordinarily long reigns
highlight the role of the Anunnaki
and emphasize the unbroken lineage
of Sumerian kingship
since the dawn of civilization.
Through the Sumerian kings list,
we once again reveal
the secrets of the Anunnaki.
When we consider the rhythm
of the teachings of Anunnaki,
it shatters some of our
present spiritual perspectives.
Individuals are in a kind of iceberg of perception,
where they've been
raised fundamentally through religiosity,
which has oftentimes kept them from
their intrinsic power, intelligence,
creativity, cosmic creators.
They've been turned
into very limited consumers,
afraid to die, because they
may go to some abyss of death.
If we integrate the
Anunnaki intelligence,
it frees us from limited religiosity.
And we begin to understand that there's
so much more to us, to the cosmos,
to the Universe, even
to our planet, that's alive.
Earth is alive.
We see life differently.
And so there are powerful spiritual
practices
that we can begin to bring into our daily life,
based
on Anunnaki and what they represented.
Fundamental practice is meditation,
paying undistractable
attention to reality.
What does that mean?
There is our perception of
reality, and then there is reality.
With real meditation, having insights
into reality,
then thinkingness, limited perception, begins
to give way to real seeing.
So meditation is fundamental.
Obviously, there are
many types of meditation,
but that which brings
you to an insight.
An insight is an event that takes place in consciousness,
where you suddenly
or incrementally know something
that you previously believed.
People don't experience reality.
They experience their
thinking about reality.
So fundamental meditation
is key and necessary.
Pranayana, there are
many breath technics.
As you breathe, so your thinking
changes, so your biology changes,
so the chemicals in your body changes.
And most people have shallow breath.
They're not really breathing properly.
And so their whole biology is
off, which means their thinking is off,
which means they're operating
from very limited potential.
Meditation, breath, nutrition,
exercise,
these are all fundamental.
They're not new. They're ageless.
However, as one practices them,
practices these technics
without putting a whole lot of religious connotation
on it,
it's been actually saying "I'm practicing to wake up",
"I'm practicing to become conscious",
"I'm practicing to know myself".
They all become very freeing,
very freeing, so that we can
actually radiate the power
that is within us all.
