ancient sayings

syriac for Isho

symbolism mysticism & the initial singularity

there are sayings left to us in a language that is over 3000 years old and draws on imagery that goes back even further

aramaic is a language that can communicate multiple layers of meaning symbolism and mysticism in just one word

ancient sayings in aramaic can draw the mystic out of the reader or hearer

mysticism can be described as connecting to the initial singularity or oneness from which the universe arises and an experience of the awareness that science has brought us

the aramaic language is a rich repository of words that can bring an experience of this connection

we are only just beginning to rediscover an accurate translation of these sayings that have been obscured for so long by the fabrication of religion

a version of these sayings formed christian doctrine and in the writings of john and in 325ce at the first council of nicea (arranged by roman emperor constantine) ‘jesus’ was proclaimed to be a super being separate from nature and this dogma has been set in stone ever since

and so these ancient sayings and the depth of their message to all humanity were overlaid with mistranslation and irrefutable dogma

christianity with its claim that jesus was a deity became the dominant religious cultural political social and economic force in the world creating axioms that have contributed to the ruthless exploitation of nature and our current ecological crisis

the original message of these sayings is universal – radical – far-reaching – ungendered – unifying and ecological and their recovery is now an aid to our current situation as a species

we can now engage with these ancient sayings translated from the language they were spoken in and perhaps find a pathway to ending our ecological crisis

this site is dedicated to the scholars who have worked for so many years to trace the original meanings of the aramaic used in these sayings

and the discipline of science

crystal – celestial wisdom and universal consciousness
