I have already established in the following article, that the Greek Gods, whose proper Tribal name is Pelasgian, lived. I quoted several excerpts from the following historical book, The Greek Origin of Freemasonry, 1956, 2nd edition, to provide evidence for my assertion.
Greek (Pelasgian) Mythology IS Greek (Pelasgian) History.
Below is an excerpt from the hyperlinked book above which establishes Pelasgian lineages – on page 23:
“The remote ancestors of Modern Freemasonry are the deified mortals of the Pelasgian Greeks…The institutors of the first principles of Freemasonry who are of interest to our Masonic genealogy are: Rhea, Zeus, Hera, Hephaestus, Demeter and her daughter Persephone. Also the children that were produced from them. Apollo and Artemis were the offsprings of Zeus and Leto. Hermes of Maia and Zeus. Dionysos of Zeus and Semele. Dardanos was the son of Electra and Zeus.” (Italics are my addition.)
Many of the Gods mentioned above were Olympian Gods (learn more here).
Deified mortals means to worship or regard as Gods, human beings that are subject to death.
Institutors means those who found, establish, educate, or instruct. Note the word “tutor” embedded within the word ”institutor” – that is, teacher.
As I have stated many times in my articles, the Pelasgians/Hellenes (Real Greeks) brought Universal Knowledge to this world.
Dionysos: The Flesh And Blood Christ
From The Greek Origin of Freemasonry, 1956, 2nd edition, p. 144:
“It was believed that Dionysos was tortured, slain, and buried on the side of a hill at Mount Parnassus, and that shortly after, he was raised by his father Zeus, the King of the Celestial Lodge.”
Delphi is located on the Southern slopes of Mount Parnassus in Central Greece. Many mainstream sources claim that there is an important connection between Dionysos and Mount Parnassus but they do not reveal WHY this is so…
Is it me, or does this Dionysian story sound a lot like the torture, death and resurrection of Christ? The only thing missing is the crucifixion since this mode of punishment/death did not exist until much later.
Even if you think these Greek ‘mythological‘ stories are fiction, they describe events that happened long before Biblical times. These ‘myths’ were documented and kept only by those in power, were passed on from one generation to the next via the spoken word, or both. Since this story is so similar to the Biblical one, logical people would have to question the veracity of the religious story.
Zeus and Semele: Their Real Names
Zeus’ real name is Dias (Δíας) – it is associated with the four-letter word for God in Greek: Θεóς/ΘΕΟΣ (The Greek Origin of Freemasonry, 1956, 2nd edition, p. 29).
Another name for Zeus was Kronidis (or Cronidis) since he was the son of Kronos (the REAL Saturn). The “dis” added to the name of the father meant “the son of” for these deified mortals.
Interestingly enough, the Pontic Greeks (Pontians) have surnames that end in “dis” – “dou” for the females. My paternal grandmother’s maiden name ended in “dou” – I am of Pontian stock on my father’s side.
Semele is a bastardized version of the Pelasgian name Soumela (Σουμελá) or Simela (Συμέλα) – Soumela is the Pontian name for the ‘Mother of Christ.’ She is most commonly known as Παναγíα Σουμελá (All-Holy Soumela). She was the actual mother of the son who was tortured, murdered and buried on the side of a hill.
I know that it may be hard to believe but Zeus (Δíας) and Semele (Σουμελá) were the parents of the The Flesh and Blood ‘Christ’ – Dionysos (Διόνυσος).
Christ never existed as I have stated many times in my Biblical articles – his name means “light“. If he did exist, he would have been a woman.
My Roots
When my father died in 2009, for the first time in my life, I wanted to move to Greece – permanently. Of course, I could not do it at the time since I, along with the rest of my family, needed to heal.
I did not understand it back then since after my last trip there in 1994, I came across many Greeks that did not consider us Diaspora Greeks, Greek – not even our parents who were born and raised there. I expected to return only one more time to see the places I really wanted to see and to never again return there. However, the death of my father changed everything. And so did the research into my lineages which began in 2018.
My research has provided ample evidence that the Pontic Greek language, or dialect, IS Ancient Greek and that Pelasgian/Universal Knowledge came from them. There was something about the Pontian dialect that fascinated me – whenever I heard my father and his family speak it, it awakened my brain. It was as if someone turned the lights on in a very dark place and I felt better, more alive.
I do not want to upset other Hellenes/Pelasgians, especially my very smart and sassy Spartan mama. But it is what it is… I have, however, found similarities between the Pontic Greek dialect and the Cretan one which tells me that the latter must contain Ancient Greek words. One of my great grandfathers on my mother’s side, was born in Crete – I did not know this when my father died.
Zeus was also born and raised in Crete.
With all of the changes happening on the planet over the next few years, many of us will be returning to our ancestral homelands for good.
