... The
Pythagoreans make Phaeton
fall into Eridanus, burning part
of its water, and glowing still
at the time when the Argonauts
passed by. Ovid stated that
since the fall the Nile hides
its sources. Rigveda 9.73.3 says
that the Great Varuna has hidden
the ocean. The Mahabharata tells
in its own style why the
'heavenly Ganga' had to be
brought down. At the end of the
Golden Age (Krita Yuga) a
class of Asura who had
fought against the 'gods' hid
themselves in the ocean where
the gods could not reach them,
and planned to overthrow the
government. So the gods implored
Agastya (Canopus, alpha
Carinae = Eridu) for help. The
great Rishi did as he was
bidden, drank up the water of
the ocean, and thus laid bare
the enemies, who were then slain
by the gods. But now, there was
no ocean anymore! Implored by
the gods to fill the sea again,
the Holy One replied: 'That
water in sooth hath been
digested by me. Some other
expedient, therefore, must be
thought of by you, if ye desire
to make endeavour to fill the
ocean ... |

... In the present
context 'mouth' has an additional
connotation, given that it refers in
part to Heart of Earth, the deity called
'Mundo' today. This is the great
Mesoamerican earth deity, the ultimate
swallower of all living beings, depicted
in Classic Mayan art (in the Palenque
relief panels, for example) as an
enormous pair of jaws upon whose lips
even the feet of great lords must rest
in precarious balance, and into whose
throat even great lords must fall.
Turning to the contemporary scene,
daykeepers who visit the main cave
beneath the ruins of Rotten Cane, the
last Quiché capital, speak of the danger
of falling into 'the open mouth of the
Mundo' there, which is said to be more
than four yards wide ...
... The old year has
to pass through the 'door' marked 'exit'
(deguchi) and in symbolic writing
we therefore find a sign saying:
'mountain upon mountain' (i.e. an
extremely old person) and 'mouth':

... In
view of the almost universal

year throughout the

surprising to find that in
the South Island and certain
parts of the North Island of
New Zealand and in the

the year began with the new

... Odysseus and his fleet
were now in a mythic realm
of difficult trials and
passages, of which the first
was to be the Land of the
Cyclopes, 'neither nigh at
hand, nor yet afar off',
where the one-eyed giant
Polyphemus, son of the god
Poseidon (who, as we know,
was the lord of tides and of
the Two Queens, and the
lord, furthermore, of
Medusa), dwelt with his
flocks in a cave. 'Yes, for
he was a monstrous thing and
fashioned marvelously, nor
was he like to any man that
lives by bread, but like a
wooded peak of the towering
hills, which stands out
apart and alone from
others.' Odysseus, choosing
twelve men, the best of the
company, left his ships at
shore and sallied to the
vast cave. It was found
stocked abundantly with
cheeses, flocks of lambs and
kids penned apart, milk
pails, bowls of whey; and
when the company had entered
and was sitting to wait,
expecting hospitality, the
owner came in, shepherding
his flocks. He bore a
grievous weight of dry wood,
which he cast down with a
din inside the cave, so that
in fear all fled to hide.
Lifting a huge doorstone,
such as two and twenty good
four-wheeled wains could not
have raised from the ground,
he set this against the
mouth of the cave, sat down,
milked his ewes and goats,
and beneath each placed her
young, after which he
kindled a fire and spied his
guests

... For some reason,
too, it had taken
their fancy to place
the Great Pyramid
almost exactly on

latitude 29º 58'

astronomer royal of
Scotland once
observed, was 'a
sensible defalcation

necessarily in
error: For if the
original designer
had wished that men
should see with
their body, rather
than their mental
eyes, the pole of
the sky from the
foot of the Great
Pyramid, at an
altitude before them
of 30º, he would
have had to take
account of the
refraction of the
atmosphere, and that
would have
necessitated the
building standing

Presumably this message was sent to the
reader for him to understand that in
order to translate from nowadays to the
time of our ancestors the Topknot of
Andromeda corresponded to the Birthplace
at Bharani in ancient times.
... 'From the time I
was in your womb,' Maui went on,
'I have known the names of these
children of yours. Listen,' he said as
he pointed to his brothers in turn. 'You
are Maui mua, you are Maui
roto, you are Maui taha, and
you are Maui pae. And as for me,
I am Maui potiki, Maui-the-last-born.
And here I am.' When he had finished,
Taranga had to wipe her eyes because
there were tears in them, and she said:
'You are indeed my lastborn son. You are
the child of my old age. When I had you,
no one knew, and what you have been
saying is the truth. Well, as you were
formed out of my topknot you can be
Maui tikitiki a Taranga.' So that
became his name, meaning Maui-formed-in-the-topknot-of-Taranga.
And this is very strange, because women
in those days did not have topknots. The
topknot was the most sacred part of a
person, and only men had them ...
... For the Maori the
past is an important and pervasive dimension
of the present and future. Often referred to
as the 'ever-present now', Maori social
reality is perceived as though looking back
in time from the past to the present. The
Maori word for 'the front of' is mua
and this is used as a term to describe the
past, that is, Nga wa o mua or the
time in front of us. Likewise, the word for
the back is muri which is a term that
is used for the future. Thus the past is in
front of us, it is known; the future is
behind us, unknown. The point of this is
that our ancestors always had their backs to
the future with their eyes firmly on the
past. Our past is not conceived as something
long ago and done with, known only as an
historical fact with no contemporary
relevance or meaning. In the words of a
respected Maori elder: The present is a
combination of the ancestors and 'their
living faces' or genetic inheritors, that is
the present generations. Our past is as much
the face of our present and future. They
live in us ... we live in them ...
There were 27 days from the Topknot to
the First Point of Aries and similarly
27 days from Bharani to Aldebaran. The
return of the Sun at Sheratan thus
corresponded to the return of the Sun at
Aldebaran.
... In 1903, on the site of the temple
of Dictaean Zeues - the Zeus who was
yearly born in Rhea's cave at Dicte near
Cnossos, where Pythagoras spent 'thrice
nine hallowed days' [27] of his
initiation - was found a Greek hymn
which seems to preserve the original
Minoan formula in which the
gypsum-powdered, sword-dancing Curetes,
or tutors, saluted the Child at his
birthday feast ...
And there were 27 dark days (ages) also in
'Oro-manga.
... They all sat down
and rested [on the plain of Oromanga],
when suddenly they saw that a turtle had
reached the shore and had crawled up on
the beach. He [Ira] looked at it
and said, 'Hey, you! The turtle has come
on land!' He said, 'Let's go! Let's go
back to the shore.' They all went to
pick up the turtle. Ira was the
first one to try to lift the turtle -
but she didn't move. Then Raparenga
said, 'You do not have the necessary
ability. Get out of my way so that I can
have a try!' Raparenga stepped up
and tried to lift the turtle - but
Raparenga could not move her. Now
you spoke, Kuukuu: 'You don't
have the necessary ability, but I shall
move this turtle. Get out of my way!'
Kuukuu stepped up, picked up the
turtle, using all his strength. After he
had lifted the turtle a little bit, he
pushed her up farther. No sooner had he
pushed her up and lifted her completely
off the ground when she struck Kuukuu
with one fin. She struck downward and
broke Kuukuu's spine.The turtle
got up, went back into the (sea) water,
and swam away.
All the kinsmen spoke to you (i.e.
Kuukuu): 'Even you did not prevail
against the turtle!' They put the
injured Kuukuu on a stretcher and
carried him inland. They prepared a soft
bed for him in the cave and let him rest
there. They stayed there, rested, and
lamented the severely injured Kuukuu.
Kuukuu said, 'Promise me, my
friends, that you will not abandon me!'
They all replied, 'We could never
abandon you!' They stayed there
twenty-seven [27] days in Oromanga.
Everytime Kuukuu asked, 'Where
are you, friends?' they immediately
replied in one voice, 'Here we are!'
They all sat down and thought. They had
an idea and Ira spoke, 'Hey, you!
Bring the round stones (from the shore)
and pile them into six heaps of stones!'
One of the youths said to Ira,
'Why do we want heaps of stone?' Ira
replied, 'So that we can all ask the
stones to do something.' They took (the
material) for the stone heaps (pipi
horeko) and piled up six heaps of
stone at the outer edge of the cave.
Then they all said to the stone heaps,
'Whenever he calls, whenever he calls
for us, let your voices rush (to him)
instead of the six (of us) (i.e., the
six stone heaps are supposed to be
substitutes for the youths). They all
drew back to profit (from the deception)
(? ki honui) and listened. A
short while later, Kuukuu called.
As soon as he had asked, 'Where are
you?' the voices of the stone heaps
replied, 'Here we are!' All (the youths)
said, 'Hey, you! That was well done!'
