"It didn't seem to matter at the time that no one knew how to read Egyptian hieroglyphics." That part made me chuckle.

[@dannalondon903]

Its not accurate to the true language.

[@hughjanus5336]

😂 JR erroneously reads about the wrong Greek Emerald Tablet instead of the ancient Egyptian Emerald Tablets of Thoth Katt touted, which were proven to be fraudulent anyway in the mid 1600's shortly after their first publishing c.1935. At the top of the page which JR read, it states, "Not to be confused with the Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean (1930), the work of 20th-century occultist Maurice Doreal". Per Wilhelm Christoph Kriegsmann, c.1684, the Emerald Tablet was not originally written in Egyptian but in Phoenician, and Hermes Trismegistus is not the Egyptian Thoth but the Taaut of the Phoenicians, who is also the founder of the Germanic people under the name of the god Tuisto, mentioned by Tacitus.

[@dohnutz8452]

No one STILL knows how to read Egyptian heiroglyphics. People claiming to know back in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s just made up a bunch of fake B.S. and claimed to have “cracked the code,” and people are still just as ignorantly following that today.

If the Book of Thoth is not about magic but rather about understanding nature then we're a living book of Thoth. With every passing century, year, and day we're understanding our world and what's around it more and more and harnessing its untapped resources for the greater good.

The Quran is also full of contradictions and misleading messages, so much so a “static” book that was created in heaven before mankind has so many mistakes and things wrong, this has led to over 30 Quran’s in existence today and more in the past, but they will say that the gospel is tainted even though the message inside had always stayed the same and can see that from earlier bibles from before Islam was a thing

Whenever Crowley is discussed, with the spin that his Thelemic motto is permissive, they alway quote half the motto; out of context. Do what thou will shall be the whole of the law, should always be read with 'Love is the law, love under will.' To leave the second part of the motto unsaid is deceptive and intended to spin the story. Crowley is saying yes, do what you want, as long as it is done with love as part of your karmic journey through this life. A totally different meaning and quite wholesome, not at all the permissive resolve to pander to basic instinct. To know Crowley never accept anyone else's argument, read his writing yourself. You'll find no satanism, no child sacrifice, he leaves all that to mainstream religion. His work exalts us to independent thinking, to divine human experience and to love above all else.

The book of Thoth is a good example to show how a narration or discription or an explanation or an idealogy or a theory on 'life' and 'human beings ' undergoes changes when it passes through various different idealogies at different environments and at different levels of civilizational value systems. The book of Thoth was meant to explain the phenomenon called 'life' of human beings and after life and travel of souls after death and rebirth and powers and capabilities of human beings. If we see the developments in the process of the ' thought structure' as mentioned in the book of Thoth, when it was adopted by Greek mythology and Roman mythology and by Christianity and during renascence period and during the 'free will of the self' stages , we feel the changes that 'convinced' the people of those levels of civilization. The message in this book of Thoth is: 'life' as a human beings has a meaning, a significance with clear cut capabilities and powers and we should understand them and utilise them to make and to creat a beautiful world full of artistic surroundings, joy, harmony, peace and satisfaction. Life has no end. It looks as if death has put an end to 'life' but it is not correct because 'life' takes a re-birth knows as reincarnation and continue to enjoy and suffer the consequences of previous birth also known as 'karma'. Further more there is a supreme power that regulate and control and correct the process of the functioning of society and earth and universe even.

In the English translation of "the Egyptian Book of the Dead" there are powerful Alchemical spells for someone with the right talismans. In both wall paintings, illustrated papyrus and base relief sculpture there is the esoteric symbolism that along with Greek potters guild's painted ware, formed most of symbolism and gestures used to make the Tarot of Marseille and other decks. If you do not understand the gestures and symbolism, then you can't follow the evolution of esoteric art through the ages. The awkward English translation of "The Coming Forth by Day," demystifies what is actually powerful stuff for most readers. It is likely that the Egyptian Alchemical practices were taken from an earlier secretive society that forbade base relief sculpture, rendering embedded figures that would be ambiguous to any viewer who did not have a basic knowledge of the legitimate symbolism used in a particular context.

'Book of Thoth' as an indication of wisdom baked into mankind, from within, as a universal truth which can be discovered. It is written in a communication style to reflect what more or less happens when the eternal soul awakens in someone, like an internal dialogue which makes complete sense for who in oneself enters into it. Hence, it's called Hermetic. Rosicruciansindicate something similar with 'the book M' and 'the book T' ...which in short, means book of the world and book of the Devine, pointing at the universal wisdom of relationship between both... There's plenty of scholars having analyzed related old books. Don't take my word for it, I only stumbled across this myself... see for example bibliotheca philosophica hermetica or embassyofthefreemind and similar. One hypothesis, for example, goes as far as saying that even if all old books and papyries got lost, the experience humans can go through could simply reconstruct all of it from scratch... I find this all quite interesting... enjoy reading/studying. You never know what you might find.. 🙂

His teaching came from the land of Kemet, and the dates put Thot in the era of Kemetic since because he was one of the gods of Kemet. Its amazing how the information in the original tablets contain the accuracy of this information but its almost like its bieg erased from history. Its important to know why Kemet was changed to Egypt and how it shows how so far advanced this culture was. That the science we know of today did not come from Egypt it all came from Kemet.

This was less about the books of Thoth and more about highlighting the history of European interpretations, much like most of history. The tarot cards with European faces in egyptian headdress summed this up pretty well, was good for a laugh though.

There is much more to who we are than people want to admit. That is why myths continue even when disproven. This is a perfect example. Just look at what is happening today in politics. Delusion, and myths rule the day.

They didn’t really do their research. It’s not called the book of Thoth, but I have a copy of the thing right here. Research in this video was lacking, it’s basically Clickbait.

That's what they would have you believe. 🤭

Yeah because this documentary shows the entire process... since peopels are so dense that if you said to them that the book of thots is a snakeoil at best just right out of the gate they wouldn't believe you....

Second the video was good but should have included the idea that the Kabbalah is similar or may have come from Egyptian hermetics. There wasn’t one mention of Jewish mysticism.

[@societyofgoodness4643]

No mention of the Emerald tablets huh? If you’re a true seeker, look up Billy Carson. The man is absolutely the best source for the truth on Thoth. 🙌❤️🙌 We were genetically engineered to be Alchemists to co-create with our endowed gifts. Thoth gave us the manual. We have to do the Great Work. ❤ The only way to move forward is w TRUTH.

I agree. Thoth was teaching Jesus . Not this sadistic satanic rituals that they were showing here.

I've got Crowley's Book of Thoth (and his Tarot deck) but never found any magic in it? I've always thought that it was just a book that Crowley had written to accompany his deck and named as such because it sounded a bit related to the growing romanticism with Egyptology and mysticism by Europeans of that era. I don't think I've gained any power from it , and im sure i pretty much read through it around 30 years ago. Crowley never seems to give any mention of a reference let alone a quotation from some ancient book. Id have thought that this book was just modern literature on the arcana. I dont even think that Tarot is that old, maybe from the european middle ages. I dont even think that kabbalah is ancient. My personal opinion is that wisdom from India had just been adopted reinterpreted and repackaged by europeans to be sold to middled aged arisyocratic european ladies with a bit of spare time on their hands to kill and seances to attend.

I didn't hear anything about the Emerald Tablets. I thought that was the source. It's indestructible, been around for thousands of years, no one knows how it defies physics, etc. I thought that was an integral part of the story.

[@kulturalnoize7813]

Whatever Thoth did, medktation is about being thoughtless. I think there is a math equatioin that describes our evolution and it explains the that the presence of one thought consumes the entire universe in fire. Think about it. Thoughts are not required to live but it sure is difficult to live thoughtless as all this technology has are minds skimiming thru life. But are thoughts bad? Sometimes the help sometimes they don't.

[@noname-by3qz]

Is this the emerald tablets one?

[@user-tn6lx4tr8c]

The snake's message to Eve in the Garden of Eden was exactly that: you are immortal, you should not limit yourself to what has been allowed. Eat the fruit, and have all knowledge... basically, humans are to be revered above all. This has lead to so much despair.

[@Finny_finn_finn]

If you really want to learn something...Bible

[@S3RAVA3LM]

@@Finny_finn_finn no. The Bible is only for initiatic adepts and not for beginners. PLATO use to accept 'tragic fables and metaphor' conveying Divine truths, up until aquainted with Socrates and guided by the philosopher, realized tragic fables and metaphors would always mislead the juveniles as they would take such as apparent only - many people have not only been hurt and turned away from God, but too, the bible and such tragic texts have been used as weapon. If one hasn't the key to the legend, the map becomes obsolete. Christ however, or the new testament is certainly good; Old Testament, too, if one has the key. So, yeah, Platonism/ Neoplatonism is the only Wise choice. Why study the Bible - which I have and exhaustedly - when you can study Plato, Plotinus, Proclus, etc.

[@williamj1813]

Since Egypt is considered the cradle of mycology, I wonder how much the use of psilocybin had a role and enlightenment in ancient Egyptian culture. The transparent 'being' that visited Crowley, 'standing behind him over his left shoulder' and dictating what to write was helped by the influence/tool of Hashish.

[@CheifR0cka]

Is it native to everywhere on Earth? Obviously they could trade for it if not, but I just never even wondered that before until now.

[@defendandprotect-om5hv]

Probably had much to do with enlightenment. Probably the beginning of most religions.

[@jimbob3030]

Hieroglyphics show a million times over that the entheogen their entire culture was built upon was the blue lotus flower, including in concentrated form and also mixed with alcohol, not mushrooms, but it does fit a pattern with all ancient cultures where a state of being intoxicated by one thing or another led them to believe in all sorts of wacky different things.

Crowley claimed the deity who dictated the Book of the Law to him was Horus, not Thoth. His tarot contains his own philosophy of the religion he founded which is called Thelema. It is therefore not pure Tarot.
