LUMAUIG: GREAT SPIRIT, IGOROT CREATION MYTH

LUMAUIG: GREAT SPIRIT, IGOROT CREATION MYTH

Erle Frayne D. Argonza / Ra

Source: http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/creation-phil.html

The Creation - Igorot

In the beginning there were no people on the earth.
Lumawig, the Great Spirit, came down from the sky and cut many reeds. He divided these into pairs which he placed in different parts of the world, and then he said to them, "You must speak."
Immediately the reeds became people, and in each place was a man and a woman who could talk, but the language of each couple differed from that of the others.
Then Lumawig commanded each man and woman to marry, which they did. By and by there were many children, all speaking the same language as their parents. These, in turn, married and had many children. In this way there came to be many people on the earth.
Now Lumawig saw that there were several things which the people on the earth needed to use, so he set to work to supply them. He created salt, and told the inhabitants of one place to boil it down and sell it to their neighbors. But these people could not understand the directions of the Great Spirit, and the next time he visited them, they had not touched the salt.
Then he took it away from them and gave it to the people of a place called Mayinit. These did as he directed, and because of this he told them that they should always be owners of the salt, and that the other peoples must buy of them.
Then Lumawig went to the people of Bontoc and told them to get clay and make pots. They got the clay, but they did not understand the molding, and the jars were not well shaped. Because of their failure, Lumawig told them that they would always have to buy their jars, and he removed the pottery to Samoki. When he told the people there what to do, they did just as he said, and their jars were well shaped and beautiful. Then the Great Spirit saw that they were fit owners of the pottery, and he told them that they should always make many jars to sell.
In this way Lumawig taught the people and brought to them all the things which they now have.
REFLECTION

In the Cordillera mountains or Northern Luzon habituate the Igorots who comprise eight (8) ethnic groups in all. They share the belief in Lumauig as the Great Spirit who created mankind. Lumauig here is very near the truth about the Spirit-Force in divine wisdom, who is the One Universal Principle from which all objective and subjective domains of life emanated from.

Lumauig ‘came down from the sky’—descended from the spiritual domains. Thereof, he ‘cut many reeds’—this signifies the splitting of oversouls into many souls (soul-fragments in other traditions). Without souls, no human life is possible on the astral and physical domains that were the lowest dimensions.

He ‘divided them into pairs’—signifies the splitting of the androgynous souls into Male and Female polarities or Twinflame mates. ‘You must speak’ signifies the beginnings of oral language and communications, as human were still in the mental and astral planes preparing to move down to the physical plane.

‘Immediately the reeds became people’—souls in twinflame polarities became the first humans during the mid-Lemurian evolutionary phase, which is the farthest that Igorot collective memory can go. The rest was history, which includes the creation of the institution of family, diets (salt), cottage industry (pottery), and commerce.

PHYSICAL UNIVERSE’S CREATION BY CAPTAN & DEITIES

PHYSICAL UNIVERSE’S CREATION BY CAPTAN & DEITIES

Erle Frayne D. Argonza / Ra

Among some Filipino ethnicities reins the belief in the creation deity Captan. In their version of cosmogony, Captan is synonymous if not identical to Brahma who is deity of the physical universe.

Maguayan and scions seem to coincide with the Elohim as revealed by divine wisdom or Theos Sophia. The Elohim assisted Lord Brahma in creating objective worlds as vehicles for subjective life-forms to evolve and grow, while the Elohim were assisted by hierarchs of the elementals and divas.

The creation of the objective conditions for many life forms to evolve, beginning with the mineral and onwards to the vegetative, then onwards to the animal, till finally the phase of devic-man was achieved, was also depicted.

Mankind was projected as having appeared from out of a bamboo. Man and Woman came out of the bamboo together—which signifies the tracing of humans from the time sexing was the mode of procreation (mid-Lemurian). The Twinflame principle of splitting androgynous souls into male and female polarities were clearly depicted. Accordingly, Sicalac was the male while Sicabay was the female, the ancestors of mankind—akin to the Adam & Eve of Semitic anthropogenesis.

The bamboo is signifier of earth element, and earth contains all of the 100+ elements known in chemistry as constituting matter. Bamboo, which has nodules, also signifies the genes that are structured in the vogue of having nodules separating DNA/RNA embeds.

How the World Was Made

This is the ancient Filipino account of the creation.
Thousands of years ago there was no land nor sun nor moon nor stars, and the world was only a great sea of water, above which stretched the sky. The water was the kingdom of the god Maguayan, and the sky was ruled by the great god Captan.
Maguayan had a daughter called Lidagat, the sea, and Captan had a son known as Lihangin, the wind. The gods agreed to the marriage of their children, so the sea became the bride of the wind.
Three sons and a daughter were born to them. The sons were called Licalibutan, Liadlao, and Libulan; and the daughter received the name of Lisuga.
Licalibutan had a body of rock and was strong and brave; Liadlao was formed of gold and was always happy; Libulan was made of copper and was weak and timid; and the beautiful Lisuga had a body of pure silver and was sweet and gentle. Their parents were very fond of them, and nothing was wanting to make them happy.
After a time Lihangin died and left the control of the winds to his eldest son Licalibutan. The faithful wife Lidagat soon followed her husband, and the children, now grown up, were left without father or mother. However, their grandfathers, Captan and Maguayan, took care of them and guarded them from all evil.
After a time, Licalibutan, proud of his power over the winds, resolved to gain more power, and asked his brothers to join him in an attack on Captan in the sky above. At first they refused; but when Licalibutan became angry with them, the amiable Liadlao, not wishing to offend his brother, agreed to help. Then together they induced the timid Libulan to join in the plan.
When all was ready the three brothers rushed at the sky, but they could not beat down the gates of steel that guarded the entrance. Then Licalibutan let loose the strongest winds and blew the bars in every direction. The brothers rushed into the opening, but were met by the angry god Captan. So terrible did he look that they turned and ran in terror; but Captan, furious at the destruction of his gates, sent three bolts of lightning after them.
The first struck the copper Libulan and melted him into a ball. The second struck the golden Liadlao, and he too was melted. The third bolt struck Licalibutan, and his rocky body broke into many pieces and fell into the sea. So huge was he that parts of his body stuck out above the water and became what is known as land.
In the meantime the gentle Lisuga had missed her brothers and started to look for them. She went toward the sky, but as she approached the broken gates, Captan, blind with anger, struck her too with lightning, and her silver body broke into thousands of pieces.
Captan then came down from the sky and tore the sea apart, calling on Maguayan to come to him and accusing him of ordering the attack on the sky. Soon Maguayan appeared and answered that he knew nothing of the plot as he had been asleep far down in the sea.
After a time he succeeded in calming the angry Captan. Together they wept at the loss of their grandchildren, especially the gentle and beautiful Lisuga; but with all their power they could not restore the dead to life. However, they gave to each body a beautiful light that will shine forever.
And so it was that golden Liadlao became the sun, and copper Libulan the moon, while the thousands of pieces of silver Lisuga shine as the stars of heaven. To wicked Licalibutan the gods gave no light, but resolved to make his body support a new race of people. So Captan gave Maguayan a seed, and he planted it on the land, which, as you will remember, was part of Licalibutan's huge body.
Soon a bamboo tree grew up, and from the hollow of one of its branches a man and a woman came out. The man's name was Sicalac, and the woman was called Sicabay. They were the parents of the human race. Their first child was a son whom they called Libo; afterwards they had a daughter who was known as Saman. Pandaguan was a younger son and he had a son called Arion.
Pandaguan was very clever and invented a trap to catch fish. The very first thing he caught was a huge shark. When he brought it to land, it looked so great and fierce that he thought it was surely a god, and he at once ordered his people to worship it. Soon all gathered around and began to sing and pray to the shark. Suddenly the sky and sea opened, and the gods came out and ordered Pandaguan to throw the shark back into the sea and to worship none but them.
All were afraid except Pandaguan. He grew very bold and answered that the shark was as big as the gods, and that since he had been able to overpower it he would also be able to conquer the gods. Then Captan, hearing this, struck Pandaguan with a small thunderbolt, for he did not wish to kill him but merely to teach him a lesson. Then he and Maguayan decided to punish these people by scattering them over the earth, so they carried some to one land and some to another. Many children were afterwards born, and thus the earth became inhabited in all parts.
Pandaguan did not die. After lying on the ground for thirty days he regained his strength, but his body was blackened from the lightning, and all his descendants ever since that day have been black.
His first son, Arion, was taken north, but as he had been born before his father's punishment he did not lose his color, and all his people therefore are white.
Libo and Saman were carried south, where the hot sun scorched their bodies and caused all their descendants to be of a brown color.
A son of Saman and a daughter of Sicalac were carried east, where the land at first was so lacking in food that they were compelled to eat clay. On this account their children and their children's children have always been yellow in color.
And so the world came to be made and peopled. The sun and moon shine in the sky, and the beautiful stars light up the night. All over the land, on the body of the envious Licalibutan, the children of' Sicalac and Sicabay have grown great in numbers. May they live forever in peace and brotherly love!

COSMOGONY AS FILIPINO MYTH VERSIONS

COSMOGONY AS FILIPINO MYTH VERSIONS

Erle Frayne D. Argonza / Ra

Philippine folklore narratives on creation practically mirror those of its ASEAN neighbors. These folklores are shared by ethnicities coming from two (2) racial groups: Malays (the dominant majority) and Polynesians (aborigines).

The Malayan Filipinos are in kinship with their neighbors, as Malays belong to the last racial families of Lemuro-Atlanteans of the 4^th ‘root-race’. The Filipino Malays have their own peculiarities in the mythos narratives, which renders them as distinct in the analysis of folklorists and exegetes.

Polynesian Filipinos are of short stock, very dark brown skin hue, and curly hair. Phenotype groups are: Agta, Atta, Remontado, Dumagat, and related tribes. Remember that the ancient 3^rd ‘root-race’ Lemurians were giants, with heights reaching past 30 feet at some point in ancient history, while their direct remnants have been shortened in stature across time for one reason or another (in-breeding normally produce dwarfism).

Let us examine a rundown of sample cosmogony of Filipinos. The most comprehensive anthology is that of Prof. Damiana Eugenio’s writings, published by the University of the Philippines, with a total of 10 Volumes, rendering the anthology as encyclopedic. Incidentally, other scholars of Southeast Asian studies of other nationalities have done equally scholarly pursuits of Filipino folklore, such as the expert below.

DUAL GODHEAD & TRINITIES IN MALAYSIA, INDONESIA, SINGAPORE, SUMATRA MYTHOS

DUAL GODHEAD & TRINITIES IN MALAYSIA, INDONESIA, SINGAPORE, SUMATRA MYTHOS

Erle Frayne D. Argonza / Ra

Source: http://www.answers.com/topic/indonesian-and-malaysian-divinities

Among the many indigenous peoples in Indonesia and Malaysia there are several examples of dual gods and sometimes of trinities. In Sumatra, the Toba Batak see the Absolute Mula Jadi na Bolon as three persons representing the upper, middle, and lower worlds. In Nias there is a two-person divinity representing the dual nature of the universe—good and evil, light and dark. For the Ngaju people of Borneo, Jata is the feminine side of a dual godhead. She represents the lower world and the moon. Mahatala, the male aspect, is the upper world and the sun. Together Jata and Mahatala form the Absolute Tambon Haruei Bungai (see Southeast Asian entries;

REFLECTION

As summarized in book reviews, the peoples of Malaysia, Singapore, Sumatra, and Indonesia share certain myths. Among those precepts shared is the duality of Godhead, which appertains to the Law of Duality among cosmic laws.

Duality of Godhead is actually pre-eminent in cultures to the east of the Caucasus and extends to the islanders of the Pacific who are of Polynesian ethno-racial stocks. The One Universal Principle—the Spirit-Force that projected Life-forms and worlds unto the ‘void’ to create the Cosmos—actually has no gender. However, to perceive Godhead as having a duality, of both Male and Female principles represented, is totally correct and coherent with Theos Sophia or divine wisdom.

It is however incorrect to claim that the ASEAN (to shorten Southeast Asians) myths of Godhead were borrowed directly from the Vedic philosophy of India. It is more correct to contend that both peoples of India and ASEAN (Malays, IndoMongoloids, Polynesians) were of common origin: the 3^rd & 4^th ‘root races’. 3^rd is Lemurian, while 4^th is Atlantean. That largely explains the commonality of beliefs in duality of Godhead among ASEAN, Indian, and Chinese peoples (includes Tibetans).

Observe also the Trinities, which is embedded too in the mythos of India (Brahma, Siva, Vishnu) and the West (Father, Son, Holy Ghost). Number 3 is the Upper Triune in the Septenary Low, where 3 + 4 = 7. Four (4), to re-echo, is the Lower Quaternary, comprising of the elements of earth (physical plane), water (astral plane), air (mental plane), and fire (causal or ‘higher mental’ plane).

FROM CHAOS TO KOSMOS: MANVANTARA IN POLYNESIAN COSMOGONY

FROM CHAOS TO KOSMOS: MANVANTARA IN POLYNESIAN COSMOGONY

Erle Frayne D. Argonza / Ra

Source: http://www.oldandsold.com/articles29/mythology-12.shtml

In the Polynesian area one of the most characteristic and interesting types of cosmogonic myths was that which explained the origin of the universe as due to a sort of evolutionary development from an original chaos or nothingness; and, at least in central Polynesia, this assumed a genealogical form. This evolutionary genealogical type of origin-myths seems, so far as available material goes, to be lacking in Indonesia, except in one very restricted region, the island of Nias, lying off the western coast of Sumatra. According to myths from this island, there was in the beginning only darkness and fog, which condensed and brought forth a being with-out speech or motion, without head, arms, or legs; and in its turn this being gave existence to another, who died, and from whose heart sprang a tree which bore three sets of three buds. From the first two sets six beings were produced, two of whom made from the third set of buds a man and a woman—the ancestors of mankind. The several variants of the myth differ in details, but all agree in tracing the origin of things to a primeval chaos, from which after several generations was developed a tree that in turn gave rise to gods and men. Although lacking the details and development found in Polynesia, these Nias myths seem to show the same fundamental conception.

REFLECTION

In the beginning was the void or Chaos, as Theos Sophia or divine wisdom had established. The Supreme Being—the One Universal Principles, Omniscient, Omnipotent, Omnipresent—then projected ideations unto the void to begin Kosmos, thus ensuing with a new Manvantara or great cycle of life/existence.

‘Brought forth a being without speech or motion, without head, arms, or legs’ shows the formless state of evolved beings who were re-integrated into the Godhead at the end of the previous Manvantara. Such beings, referred in the singular in the mythos, were re-awakened at the start of the new Manvantara. They were of pure Spirit, nay were caused by the cause of all causes, the Spirit-Force.

Brahma is deity of the physical universe, and has been mandated to direct the materialization of objective & subjective domains. Brahma & Elohim, as deific team, as well as Shakti/Mother & diverse logoi & archangels, cooperated in creating the first of oversouls which then descended into the lower domains—signified by ‘gave birth to a being who died’. That means, the oversouls have to step down the ladder, thus relatively losing certain spirituality or Light, in order to proceed with soul evolutions—this is the Devolution phase in the Law of Evolution.

The projections of the oversouls to create souls which then descended down the material planes, and from there came forth Evolutes of humans. Such was to happen during the 4^th Evolutionary Round, or devic-man phase, in the totality of 7 Evolutionary Rounds prior to return to Godhead.

‘Set of beings’ practically reveal the Twinflame mates as androgyn souls have to bifurcate into the male and female ‘components’, during the mid-Lemurian, when procreation turned from the previous asexual (egg-laying or oviparous) to sexual. 6 beings of 3 sets, meaning 3 sub-races of humans birthing sexually, of human souls with corresponding dualities materializing as male and female on the surface.

GAIA, SOLAR LOGOS IN TIMOR, WESTERN & CENTRAL INDONESIA MYTHOS

GAIA, SOLAR LOGOS IN TIMOR, WESTERN & CENTRAL INDONESIA MYTHOS

Erle Frayne D. Argonza

Source: http://www.oldandsold.com/articles29/mythology-12.shtml

The cosmogonic myths thus far discussed are derived from western and central Indonesia; and we may now turn to the eastern portion of this area, where another type appears, albeit the available material is exceedingly scanty. Indeed, of true myth-material we have only fragments from the small islands north-east of Timor (the Sermata and Leti Islands)." These seem to indicate a belief in a sky-world and a world below, of whose origins, however, nothing is said." On the other hand, it may be noted that in all of the islands, from and including Timor to the Kei Islands, there is a belief in a male deity living in the sky and associated chiefly with the sun, and a female deity dwelling in or regarded as one with the earth, these being described as husband and wife, and being supposed to mate annually at the time of the monsoon, while it was also believed that the sky once was closer to the earth. In Ceram, Buru, and Amboina, the definiteness of this concept of the heaven father and earth mother becomes clearer; but we have no myths, not even fragments, regarding them. In view of the almost total lack of cosmogonic myth material from this region, as well as from Halmahera and the other islands of the Moluccas, it is premature to draw any conclusions from the resemblance of this concept to the similar, but much more highly developed, ideas in Polynesia; yet it is difficult to avoid the impression that the strength of the belief here in the extreme eastern portion of Indonesia, which is geographically nearest to the Polynesian area, and its apparent absence elsewhere farther west, are significant. Further material, however, alone can settle the question.

REFLECTION

The ‘sky-world’ and the ‘world below’ reflect the synergy of the spiritual dimensions (‘sky-world’) and the material dimensions (‘world below’). The bifurcation of reality into the spiritual and material indicates right away the Law of Duality/Polarity, one of the cosmic laws as per Theos Sophias’ teachings.

‘Of whose origins, however, nothing is said’ signifies the state of silence that had swept mankind about cosmogony and anthropogenesis after the Deluge (end of glacial period/sinking of Poseidonis/Atlantis).

Such a state of mum is counterbalanced, thankfully, by another mythos in which a Male Deity and Female Deity are said to have been involved in creating the Earth and humans. Again, the Law of Duality obtaining. The Male Deity is associated with the Sun, the Above, which signifies the spiritual domains; the Female Deity, with the material domains. Theos Sophia indeed associates the Male Principle with the Idea, the Spirit, while the Feminine Principle signifies materialization, matter, physicality.

Equally revealed are the Solar Logos, Deity of the solar system, which could explain the Male Deity’s association with the Sun. And, the goddess Gaia, Female Deity, who in-dwells in the Earth which Lady Gaia chose as her body.

BIRDS & SEA ARCHETYPES IN BORNEO CREATION MYTHS

BIRDS & SEA ARCHETYPES IN BORNEO CREATION MYTHS

Erle Frayne D. Argonza / Ra

Source: http://www.oldandsold.com/articles29/mythology-12.shtml

The origin-legends of the north-west Borneo tribes are related to the type of cosmogonic myth which has just been considered in that they set forth belief in a primeval sea and in the important part played by birds, although they imply something more of a direct creation. According to one of these," in the beginning there was nothing but a wide-spread sea, over which flew two birds, who, diving, brought up two objects like eggs in size and shape, from one of which one bird made the sky, while from the other his fellow created the earth. As the size of the latter exceeded that of the former, it was pressed together in order that it might fit, its resultant crumples and folds producing the mountains and valleys. Other versions 52 speak of an original deity without legs or arms, who seems to have been supported upon an animal, and who by an act of will created two birds, which then formed heaven and earth.

REFLECTION

The sea signifies the astral plane that is governed by the water element. Incidentally, when more advanced species of plants and animals appeared on Earth, the vibratory frequency of the planet was still of the astral or 2^nd plane modality, while the entire planet was practically covered by water.

The bird archetype has a number of meanings in cosmogony & divine wisdom. One is the phallic/Desire signification, without which existence and procreation cannot be possible. Another meaning is that of the ‘air element’, as birds are creatures of the air, which therefore refers to the mental plane (3^rd plane) that is governed by the same element. Still another meaning is that of the Supreme Being, whenever the bird is a ‘dove’ that is among the standard archetypes for the Almighty Father.

The narrative reveals the interactions or interventions happening at the mental astral planes prior to the full descent of human souls into the dense physical planes. The ‘egg is shape’ is revelatory of the first two (2) ‘root races’ that were asexual in reproduction, and were of shadowy etheric constitution.

The ‘original deity without legs or arms’ clearly speaks of the Creator Beings—collectively identified in the singular—who were amorphous. From the 4^th through the 7^th planes, beings do not have forms, though they can manifest to mystics and/or rishis with forms and even create temporary bodies to be able to fully manifest before their bakthas (devotees).

REPTILOID VS DIVINE CLASH IN BATARA GURU OF KARO BATTAK

REPTILOID VS DIVINE CLASH IN BATARA GURU OF KARO BATTAK

Erle Frayne D. Argonza

Source: http://www.oldandsold.com/articles29/mythology-12.shtml

One more version may be given, that from the Karo Battak, who, like the Dairi, live north of the Toba. According to this, Batara Guru, the heaven deity, and his wife, who was the daughter of the divinity of the underworld, full of sorrow at their childlessness, determined to try the effect of penance in poverty and seclusion, and accordingly went to live in a little hut by the sea. Here they planted a small garden, which was destroyed by a great serpent that came out of the water, but when Batara Guru went to drive it away, the monster demanded that he put food into its mouth. Fearing lest his hand be bitten off, Batara Guru wedged open the mouth of the serpent with his sword, and withdrawing his hand, found upon his finger a magic ring which would grant his every wish. The serpent then returned to the sea, and in due course of time, aided by the ring, the wife of Batara Guru presented him with three sons and three daughters. One of these sons created the world in the space between the upper world and the under-world, making it with seven handfuls of soil sent him by his father, who, when the earth was finished, suspended it from the sky by seven silken cords. The newly created world caused the underworld to be darkened, which aroused anger in that one of the three sons who had taken up his residence there. Therefore he shook the world so violently that it was destroyed. Seven times this was repeated, the earth being made anew each time, until the world-maker besought his father to aid him, and this Batara Guru did, setting up an iron pillar which sup-ported four cross-beams, upon which the world was then founded. After this the underworld-brother could shake the world (as indeed he does to this day), but was unable to destroy it.

REFLECTION

‘Batara Guru and wife’ suggest strongly the coupled role of Brahma & elohistic forces on one hand, and that of Shakti (Mother) and the angelic forces on the other hand. ‘Divinity of the underworld’ signifies the deific beings assigned to help create humans in the astral and physical dimensions which collectively are ‘underworld’.

Both forces, from Brahma-Elohim to Shakti-devic/angelic were to collaborate in birthing humans down on the lower planes or ‘underworld’. The ‘little garden’ is the devachan to which early humans had direct access to, that access later to be destroyed by the descent into the dense plane on account of succumbing to the dictates of the reptiloid species that intervened in the evolutionary process.

The ‘7 handful of soil’ refers to the 7 subcontinental regions of each of the supercontinents that emerged on Earth’s lower globes or planes. Pangea (also called Hyperboria) and Lemuria were the first supercontinents populated by humans, each one with 7 distinct sub-continents or regions. Current geologists know of a super-continent before Pangeaa, but there were no humans yet in that primordial land mass.

The clash between the ‘new world of 7’ and the ‘underworld’ refers to the changes that went on in Earth as it cooled down further from its primordial hot stage, each time producing new land mass configurations. This facet of the myth can be extrapolated, to show that the process of geological-electromagnetic changes will continue into the future, thus changing the land mass configurations across the eons to come.

The clash between the Reptilian/Dvil forces and the Divine/Light forces is clearly shown in the mythos. As revealed, the reptilians reside in the astral dimension that is signified by the sea.

Four-cross beams that were supported by iron pillar, which is the foundation of human life, signify the four elements of earth, water, air, fire as they combine (Quaternary principle), blend and harmonize to constitute the material vehicles for making living possible. ‘Iron pillar’ signifies the over 100+ elements on earth—discovered today by chemists—that can indeed support existence down here.
