Peleh: Hidden Knowledge

Concerning The Title
Peleh is a mystical Hebrew word, often translated `miracle' or
`miraculous.' It is the nearest Old Testament word to
`supernatural.' It connotes a revelation of heretofore-concealed
knowledge. Because Aleph is the first letter in the Hebrew
alphabet, it is considered the root of all knowledge. Jewish
scholars attach a mystical significance to the fact that the same
letters comprise `peleh' and `aleph', when spelled out. The root
`peleh' signifies a connection between the physical and the
spiritual via the power of speech. Consequently, the term `Peleh'
is used to describe those physical utterances which have both a
physical and spiritual meaning. This aptly describes my book, which
reveals `hidden' knowledge concerning encounters of Venus, Mars and
Mercury with the Earth during the Bronze and Iron Ages, suggesting
that this chaos was purposefully initiated by God in order to
rejuvenate a `tired' Earth, thereby accommodating the growing
population of mankind.
The Jews tell the following story in regard to Peleh:

The Baal Shem Tov entered Meshiach's (the Messiah) heavenly chamber
and asked "Meshiach, when are you going to come?" Meshiach
responded, "When the wellsprings of your teachings spread forth
throughout the entire world." Thus, only when the level of peleh -
this level of wondrous esoteric thought - has permeated the world,
will the arrival of the Meshiach be imminent.

This book is the Peleh spoken of in the story.

Clues from Egyptian Myths
Santillana and von Dechend (Hamlet's Mill) suggest that our
inability to understand the meanings of many Egyptian hieroglyphs
belies the profound knowledge implicit in those symbols. The
following quote from their book suggests an example of our current
ignorance of the knowledge of the ancient Egyptians, due to its
almost impenetrable pictographic composition:

In the inscriptions of Dendera, published by Dümichen, the goddess
Hathor is called "lady of every joy." But once Dümichen adds:
"Literally . . . `The lady of every heart circuit.' This is not to
say that the Egyptians had discovered the circulation of the blood.
But the determinative sign for "heart" often figures as the plumb
bob at the end of the plumb line coming from a well known
astronomical or surveying device, the merkhet. Evidently, "heart"
is something very specific, as it were the "center of gravity." And
this may lead in a completely different direction. The Arabs
preserved a name for Canopus - besides calling the star [Canopus]
Kalb at-taiman ("heart of the south"): [they also refer to another
Canopus as] Suhail el-wezn, "Canopus Ponderosus," the
heavy-weighing Canopus, a name promptly declared meaningless by the
experts, but which could well have belonged to an archaic system in
which Canopus was the weight at the end of the plumb line, as
befitted its important position as a heavy star at the south pole
of the "waters below." . . . The line seems to state that Hathor
(=Hat Hor, "house of Horus") "rules the revolution of a specific
celestial body - whether or not Canopus is alluded to ... The
reader is invited to imagine for himself what many thousands of
such pseudo-primitive or poetic interpretations must lead to: a
disfigured interpretation of Egyptian intellectual life.

At this point, myth is leading us to an explanation of the
fantastic events which led up to the release of priori-Mars from
its geosynchronous orbit. The quote above implies that Hathor
controls the revolution of a body, which would logically be
Canopus. Robert Temple, author of the Sirius Mystery, corroborates
the effect on priori-Mars, stating that Canopus:

with a different determinative and when not applied to a man, the
word means `orbit', `revolution,' `to go around'.

Both meanings reinforce the notion that Hathor controlled the
`orbit' of priori-Mars.... Coppens' (The Canopus Revelation)
identification of the `massive Canopus' with the current south
polar star of the same name is just another unfortunate example in
which modern day researchers have mistakenly identified an existing
star or constellation with a proto-historical entity, which is no
longer present.

In Firmament and Chaos I detail the physical events which took
place at the end of each fifteen-year `dance encounter,' which were
necessary for the escape of priori-Mars. Amazingly, this involved
the solid core coming out of the mantle of the planet through the
Valles Marineris. The latter portion of the passage from Hamlet's
Mill above supplies an important Egyptian corroboration of this
mechanism. I maintain that Suhail el-wezn, "Canopus Ponderosus,"
the `massive Canopus,' was either the name attributed to
priori-Mars itself or to its solid core. To clarify, in Greek myth,
the `ship' Argo, `covered with stars,' was commanded by Osiris,
whose `steersman' was Canopus. The many volcanoes on the surface of
priori-Mars, which blazed down toward the earth during its
encounters with the Earth, were seen as stars (the circum-polar
stars in many cultures). Thus Argo was priori-Mars. The identity of
Canopus in Greek myth comes from another translation for Canopus,
`the eye of the dog.' As mentioned previously, the great asymmetry
of priori-Mars, which resulted in its unique rotation about an axis
pointing toward the earth, caused it to be referred to as the `dog
star.' But what was the `eye'? Egyptian myth clearly states that
Hathor was the `eye of Ra' and the `dweller in his breast.'
Therefore the correct interpretation of Hathor (=Hat Hor) is the
`Heart of Horus', or in scientific jargon, the solid core of
priori-Mars, not the `House of Horus' - the currently accepted
meaning. Hathor was the Egyptian name for Canopus and was the solid
core (center) of priori-Mars. Thus the solid core somehow "ruled
the revolution" of priori-Mars, and ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics,
properly interpreted, reveal this fact.

Combining the notion that the solid core appeared as an eye, with
our current knowledge of the surface features on Mars, leads
inevitably to the picture of the solid core first protruding
through the mantle of priori-Mars at the Valles Marineris, a 4000
km straight scar roughly on the equator of priori-Mars, and then
exiting the planet.

9 The Rotation of priori-Mars

Ancient myth tells us that when in geosynchronous orbit over the
Trans-Himalayas, the north pole of priori-Mars, around which the
mantle of the planet rotated, remained pointed toward the Earth.
Scientists today believe this is impossible, because massive,
rigid, spinning bodies act as enormous gyroscopes, maintaining
their orientation relative to the stars, not continuously changing
it to point toward the Earth. Mythology not only tells us that this
did indeed happen, but also explains why - because of the great
mass asymmetry of priori-Mars which resulted in its epithet `the
dog star' in many cultures. This asymmetry resulted in the
application of a continually changing torque on its mantle, which
maintained its orientation toward the Earth.
This unique orientation was the reason for the ubiquitous, ancient
notion of a heavenly `mill' or `cuern' (churn) in many cultures and
the `churning of the sea of milk' in Vedic myth. Entire treatises
and even books have been devoted to determining the origin of this
mythical `mill,' without success. One such book, Hamlet's Mill, by
Georgio de Santillana and Hertha von Dechand is over six hundred
pages in length. The authors analyze dozens of literary works back
to proto-historical times, in which a `mill' somehow plays a
crucial role in the establishment of `new world ages.' After a
number of promises of a great revelation, their disappointing
conclusion is that the ubiquitous `mill' was ancient culture's
description of the precession of the equinoxes, a phenomenon so
subtle and remote that even most educated modern people are
blissfully unaware of it, with the possible exception of astrology
mavens. Astronomers have calculated that one cycle of this
precession requires approximately 26,000 years, and many writers,
like de Santillana, have attempted to project this motion back
through the millennia. But in the V/A scenario, the spin axis of
the Earth has been suddenly reoriented by large angles on over two
hundred occasions in the last 6,000 years. As a result, a single
cycle of this precession of the equinoxes has not yet taken place.
The precession of the spin axis of the Earth goes through only one
thousandth of this calculated cycle in a human generation and
therefore could hardly be the source of the `mill' in diverse
cultures. The mill had to be a solid object, not an abstract entity
that no one could see. The authors themselves reveal some
reservations concerning their own hypothesis when they attempt to
explain the common notion that an unhinging of the mill is repeated
periodically and that these events are closely related to
consequent `world ending' events:

The identity of the Mill, in its many versions, with heaven is thus
universally understood and accepted. But hitherto nobody seems to
have wondered about the second part of the story, which also occurs
in the many versions. How and why does it always happen that this
Mill, the peg of which is Polaris, had to be wrecked or unhinged?
Once the archaic mind had grasped the forever-enduring rotation,
what caused it to think that the axle jumps out of the hole? What
memory of catastrophic events has created this story of
destruction? Why should Vainamoinen (and he is not the only one)
state explicitly that another Mill has to be constructed (see p.
110)? Why had Dhruva to be appointed to play Pole star--and for a
given cycle? 

The first sentence is a bit surprising. They state that the new
fact that they have just revealed, the identity of the mill, "is
universally understood and accepted." Moreover, their unconvincing
interpretation of the unhinging of the mill is:

The simple answer lies in the facts of the case. The Pole star does
get out of place, and every few thousand years another star has to
be chosen which best approximates that position.

It is not surprising that de Santillana and von Dechend have failed
to find the truth, as have many thoughtful researchers before them,
because the sterile academic establishment as a whole, including
scientists and humanists, fails to recognize the role of recent
catastrophism in forming the Earth and the history of mankind. This
lack of understanding is evidenced over and over in Hamlet's Mill
when the authors repeat the usual associations of existing stars,
incorrectly, with archaic mythical names. The most glaring examples
of such errors being the association of Osiris and Isis with the
constellation Orion and the star Sirius, the identification of the
mythical `seven sisters' with the star cluster, and the
identification of Saturn in Greek myth with the ringed, giant
planet.

A number of the legends entail an unhinging of the mill, the
destruction of its pivot or `world axis' - usually in connection
with the establishment of a `new world age.' This actually refers
to the events associated with the release of priori-Mars, at which
time the great hardened lava fountain at the north pole collapsed.
This was the pivot of the mill referred to in ancient myth. The
`unhinging' myths sometimes include a whirlpool flowing into or out
of the central hole that is vacated when the world axis or `world
tree' is removed. The unhinging of the mill also explains the
common association of shamans with blacksmiths, who are involved in
the construction of the mill, because the fall of iron meteorites
from priori-Mars was a common experience following these events.
Some examples of mill legends are: Snaebjorn's (an Icelandic bard)
Amlodhi's' Mill, (where ludr=mill); The Finnish Kalevala, which
focuses on the adventures of Vainamoinen and his Sampo (=mill,
derived from the Sanskrit skambha = pillar or pole); and Frodhi's
(Freyr) magic mill, Grotte, in Norse myth. In some cultures,
priori-Mars was described as a wheel instead of a mill, as in the
case of the Celtic goddess Arianhead, meaning `silver wheel.'

Shamans are said to live in a spiritual middle world between an
upper and a lower world. This comes from the time that priori-Mars
orbited above the Earth. They enter a trance using a circular,
ornamented drum made from a specially selected tree and animal
skin, sometimes ceremonially `activated' by a sprinkling of beer
(manna?). The wooden shell is imagined to be from the cosmic tree,
which `the lord' has caused to fall. The Shaman travels from one
world to another by means of the `world tree,' that is, the axis
that passes through the center of the world, just as the deceased
Pharaoh was imagined to climb to the Duat via a rope ladder
extending down from `heaven.' The drum is a mandala, an image of
priori-Mars and the world tree is the primary deity, the great
hardened volcanic feature that extended downward toward the Earth
from its north pole. This is corroborated by the fact that the most
archaic of shaman symbols is an inverted tree, with its roots in
the air.

The Axis Mundi or World Pole
The axis about which the `Mill' rotated often received more
attention in ancient myth than the Mill itself, because a great
deal of cosmic action was concentrated there. Quoting John
Mitchell:

In all traditional systems of religion [the image of the
world-pole] has provided the dominant theme. The doctrine
associated with it describes the universe as a divinely born
creature, never the same, never at rest, but with a still,
unvarying centre which, like the core of a magnetic field, governs
everything around it ... In every traditional society ... a rock or
pillar within the national sanctuary ... is known to be the
generation centre of mankind and the spot where the pole of the
universe penetrates the Earth.

This axis was not only the source from which `everything' came into
existence, it was also the place where Heaven, Earth and the
Underworld met. Myths from different cultures provide consistent
physical descriptions of the `worldpole,' but each also contributes
subtle differences, all of which provide information, for example:
a fire stick or flaming deity at its axis; Saturn, `genie du
pivot'; Mixcouatl; world pillar; skambha (Sanskrit); north nail;
Mill tree; world axis (=axis mundi, which passes through `both
worlds'); the nave or navel (Sanskrit nabbi); the square axle-block
which fills the hole in the millstone; seven bulls or giant maidens
which turn the Mill; a whirlpool into which an ocean disappears
upon the periodic removal of the axis tree and the subsequent
unhinging or destruction of the Mill, resulting in the ending of
the current world age, which is replaced and ruled by another
deity. Plato described how the firmament is bound `by a straight
shaft of light ... and from the extremities stretched the 'Spindle
of Necessity'. A Jewish myth says `There is an upper and a lower
paradise, and between them, upright, is fixed a pillar by which
they are joined together and it is called the Hill of Sion. In the
Tale of the Ostyaks of the lrtysh the lava column is described as
follows:

There is a mill which grinds by itself, swings of itself, and
scatters the dust a hundred versts away. And there is a golden pole
with a golden cage on top which is also the Nail of the North.

Another myth describes a handle (`mundil') by which the Mill is
rotated. This designation of the world pole is particularly
perceptive. Because of the location of the Tharsis Bulge on one
side of the priori-Mars, the daily rotation of its mantle about its
north pole was not a precise circle. The single off-center mass
caused a precessional or wobbling rotation of the mantle of
priori-Mars. Although this took about a day, the careful observer
would have noted that the `axis' actually moved in a small circle,
exactly the way the handle used to turn a grindstone moves.

The `north nail' is often associated with a conical mountain or
mound. Quoting Alan Alford:

If we go back to the first principles and look at the fundamentals
of ancient Egyptian religion, it then becomes evident that there
was an obsession with the concepts of the primeval mound emerging
from the Abyss.

The mound was built up as a result of the many collapses of the
massive lava fountain, which formed the axis itself. These
collapses did not only occur at the times of the releases of
priori-Mars from geosynchronous orbit, but many times during each
dance encounter when the pair of planets passed through alignments
with the Moon, or the Sun and Moon combined. The great height
attained by this feature, which I estimate at more than 1000
kilometers (See Figure), and that when it collapsed, the debris
covered vast areas in the northern plains of priori-Mars. In fact,
both NASA Viking probes 1 and 2 landed in the debris field of this
feature as can be seen in Figure 23. The vast extent of the debris
is corroborated by the locations of these landers: 47.8 N 22.5 W
and 48 N 225.6 W.

The names of the prominent `worldpole' deity and the mountain on
which it stood, were often adopted as the names of mountains on the
Earth in the regions of each culture, implying that this was the
other end of the world axis on priori-Mars. This has led to
considerable confusion in the interpreting of some myths. Examples
abound: Mt. Olympus where Zeus lived; Mt. Meru of India, which
signified an axis or pivot; the Chinese Kwen-lun (Pearl Mountain);
Harabeeza in Iran; the Babylonian Akkad, the mountain on whose apex
the heaven of the fixed stars is pivoted. In Jewish myth the world
is centered on Mt. Sion. Also, powerful earthly rulers often
assumed the name of the `axis deity', the primary feature on
priori-Mars, as their own. For example, pharaohs were thought to
become an Osiris when they passed away, in Egyptian culture.
`World trees' were less common but are present, for example, in
German myth as Irmensul, 'the universal column which supports all
things,' which is related to the world tree of the Northmen. In the
Egyptian myth of Isis and Osiris, a great tree incorporated the
sarcophagus of Osiris.

.........................................
The Fifth Head of Brahma
Although Brahma was commonly said to have four heads, on one
occasion a unique event occurred, which is told as the myth of
Brahma's `fifth head.' The myth of the fifth head of Brahma is of
particular interest, because it may be a description of the only
sustained, naked fission reaction ever witnessed by man:
In pictures Brahma is represented as a red man with four heads,
though in the Puranas he is said to have had originally five. ...
His fifth head also having read the Vedas, which the other four
heads had delivered, acquired a splendor which neither suras (gods)
nor asuras (demons) could endure...Unable to approach or behold it,
they determined to apply to Siva for relief...Siva granted their
wish and proceeded with them to where Brahma remained inflated with
pride. On seeing Siva, Brahma did not pay him the customary
honours. Siva, seeing Brahma's fifth head inflicting distress on
the universe by its effulgent beams, brighter than a thousand suns,
approached him and said, 'Oh! this head shines with too much
splendour,' and immediately cut it off with the nail of his left
thumb. The Mahabarata says it was because of his seduction his own
daughter that Siva decapitated him. This crime was attempted when
in a fit of intoxication. The `fifth head' of Brahma was so bright
('brighter than a thousand suns') that people on Earth could not
look directly at it. The myth explains whimsically that the
brightness of the fifth head of Brahma was a result of pride, at
having received or learned the complete knowledge of the four Vedas
from the other four `heads.' But the Velikovsky/Ackerman scenario,
combined with modern physics, provides a more sanguine explanation.
Fractionation of compounds or elements in the central lava column
resulted in the hottest elements rising to the top of the column.
On one occasion the subsurface melting reached a deposit containing
a concentration of uranium within priori-Mars. The radioactive
material rose together to the top of the lava column and formed a
critical mass, initiating a sustained, naked (unshielded) nuclear
reaction. This continued for an extended period of time until the
nuclear fuel was expended. It emitted such copious amounts of
radiation, that it could not be viewed directly even though the
source was some 32,000 kilometers from the Earth. The effects of
the extremely energetic gamma radiation from this reaction may be
manifested in the rocks that were exposed on the surface of
priori-Mars at that time. This notion itself comes from Vedic myth,
which states that this radiation somehow cut the concentric grooves
which surrounded the sacred Mt. Meru, discussed previously. The
meaning of the cutting off of the head by the `nail of Siva's left
thumb' eludes me.

The `cutting off' of the same `head' was described in Greek myth
where, by stealing the `single eye' of the three Graeae, Perseus
obtained the `equipment' needed to cut off the head of the Gorgon
Medusa, who was supposedly so `ugly' that anyone who looked
directly at it would die. This extreme ugliness was a metaphor for
the extreme brightness of the fifth head of Brahma. The equipment,
a cap of invisibility, an adamantine sickle and a reflecting
shield, shed a little light on the physical processes contributing
to removal of the Gorgon's head. Perseus was also described as the
winged axis, which pierces both poles through the center of the
Earth and Mars, about which the worlds rotate, i.e. the column of
fire itself, so the Greeks seem to identify the Gorgon and Perseus
as the same feature. This may be a distortion introduced by
revisionists. Note that the same features: the `axis;' the `glowing
head;' and the `single eye' are common to most of the ancient
myths. There is little doubt that these unique characteristics were
repeatedly observed in the heavens in order to be present in the
myths of such widely dispersed cultures. In The Sunny Side of the
Greek Gorgon, Clark Hopkins suggests a very similar reason why the
Gorgon's head could not be viewed directly:

It is tempting to suggest that the averted countenance of Perseus
represented originally the inability to look at the Sun.

The notion that the severed head was somehow `retained' is also
part of the Hindu myth. Because Siva cut off Brahma's fifth head
and thereby committed the sin of killing a Brahmin, he was
condemned, in his form of Bhairava, the terrible one, to bear the
fifth head of Brahma forever.
This implies the possibility that the head was retained as a
satellite of priori-Mars. Coincidently the two small satellites of
Mars reveal striking differences in their physical appearances.
Diemos, exhibits a much smoother surface, which is remindful of
`pillow lava' formed on Earth when molten lava flows into the sea
(Figure 28). This resemblance, combined with the retention of the
fifth head in the myth suggests the possibility that Diemos is the
residual of the body which went `critical' just a few thousand
years ago. Future missions to Mars should attempt to measure any
gamma radiation from Diemos.
