The supreme god Enlil had spoken, “Emergency powers, therefore, must be placed solely in my hands. It pains me deeply to inform you that there is simply no time left to save humanity; we must now focus on saving ourselves from this impending cataclysm.”
A heavy silence descended upon the council as Enki paused in his response, his gaze sweeping the assembly. Then, at last, he spoke.
What follows is a reinterpretation of the 18th-century BCE narrative titled Atraḫasis (Akkadian: 𒀜𒊏𒄩𒋀, meaning “exceedingly wise”). Atraḫasis is one of the central figures mentioned in the Sumerian Kings List, which states, “After the kingship descended from heaven, the kingship was in Eridug (Earth).”2 In this reinterpretation, I adhere closely to the context, flow, and specifics conveyed (such as they are) in the Atraḫasis epic3 and where noted, the Epic of Gilgamesh,4 and the Babylonian flood story of Zi-ud-sura.5 However, I take literary license to translate the era’s opaque idiom and provide voice to the characters within this mythical tale. Additionally, I illuminate aspects of the narrative that have, until now, been dismissed as irrational or incoherent, reframing them in the context of our recent discoveries under the ECDO Earth Cataclysm Theory.
But I do want to make it clear that I go beyond the base translated script in this recount – synthesizing several cultural histories into a single coherent tale. For comparison, a literal translation of this epic by British scholar of the Ancient Near East, Stephanie M. Dalley, is available at this Omnika Library of Mythology link. Each element of my interpretation below directly corresponds to a specific line from Dalley’s excellent translation, with the exception of (some speculation in parenthesis) a few expository elements drawn from the aforementioned Epics of Gilgamesh and Zi-ud-sura, which recount parallel versions of the same story.
Atraḫasis was the founder and King of Kish, the first city to reestablish mankind’s civilization after the inundation of 4400 BCE, according to our provisional timeline.6 He is listed in the Sumerian Kings List as ruling until his successor, Jucur, ascended to power in 4240 BCE.7 Atraḫasis corresponds to Utnapishtim, the character in the Babylonian myth The Epic of Gilgamesh.8 Along with his sons and their servants/households, Atraḫasis survived the great cataclysm recounted in over 175 global mythologies.9 Following his reign in Kish, the Babylonian myth describes Utnapishtim moving east toward Dilmun, the land of the rising sun, where he established a fishing colony which later became known as Mohenjo-Daro.10 According to the myth, this is where Gilgamesh sought and ultimately found Utnapishtim to petition him for the secret of immortality.11
The Akkadian Atraḫasis epic recounts the myth of humanity’s creation by the gods Enlil, Anu, Nintu, and Enki—the pantheon of a third generation of the earliest deities.12 It details the conflict among these gods regarding the unrestrained overpopulation of humanity. To address this issue, the upper gods initially attempt to control the problem through pestilence and famine, but ultimately decide upon a global cataclysm intended to wipe humanity from the face of the Earth.
Without further ado, let us welcome the players onto their Earthly stage.
Prologue: The Enochian Unforgiven
The Anunnaki, banished to Earth after their final defeat in the heavens, are condemned to live mortal lives of toil and suffering. Burdened by their unrelenting labor and growing discontent, they clone humanity from the blood and DNA of a slain enemy warrior, the god Kingu (Geshtu-e). Through this act, the Anunnaki not only transfer their burden onto another species but also enslave the visage of the very god who had opposed them in the overthrow of Tiamat, the former Mother of the Gods. Tiamat, who had cherished Kingu as her consort and champion, is avenged in bitter irony.
This act sows the seeds of enmity that form the prison bars of the Anunnaki—palpable and unresolvable. They are the Enochian unforgiven. Humanity, meanwhile, is relegated to the role of step-child, a creation whose image embodies competing paternal resentments among the gods. Left to suffer in dissonance, mankind questions why he is so despised by his very own creators.
The Gods’ Labor and Discontent
In the time before humanity, the gods themselves bore the weight of endless toil. They dug canals, carved rivers, and tamed the wild earth, laboring ceaselessly under the command of the elder gods. For countless ages, they endured, until their voices rose in rebellion.
“Why should we, who are gods, endure this endless labor?” they cried. “Our strength is drained, and our hearts grow bitter!”
Hearing their cries, Enlil, chief of the elder gods, grew deeply troubled. Seeking a solution, he convened the divine assembly for counsel.
“If the younger gods rise against us, chaos will reign. We must find a solution.”
Then Enki, the wise and cunning god of waters, spoke:
“Let us create a being to bear the labor. Let them toil in our stead, and let their hands shape the world.”
The Birth of Humanity: A Decree in Hybridization
The gods consented, and Enki, together with the goddess Nintu (the womb goddess), took the task into their hands. They took the blood of the opposing god Kingu (Geshtu-e), slain for his defiance—a god whose essence embodied both divine power and the Anunnaki’s profound resentment over their imprisonment on Earth. Combining his blood with the DNA lineage of Earth—symbolized as ‘spit and clay’—they fashioned humanity.
“From the essence of the gods and the dust of the earth, we mold you,” Nintu declared. “You shall labor on the gods’ behalf and sustain their dominion.”
Thus, mankind was born, and the burden of the gods’ labor was placed upon human shoulders. For a time, the gods were content, while a form of champagne socialism prevailed to their benefit.
The Spiritual Clamor of Humanity
But as the generations of men multiplied, their lamentations grew louder—noisy and unrelenting, echoing through the heavens to those who might listen. They toiled ceaselessly, building cities, palaces, and orchards for the gods, their grievances rising day and night. Enlil, desiring peace, order, and undisputed rule, grew increasingly troubled by the incessant clamor.
“The noise and smell of these vermin is an offense to the very heavens,” he declared. “They disrupt the tranquil rule of the gods. We must act to silence them.”
Thus, Enlil called for an assembly of the Fifty Lahmu-Heroes, the gods who had once battled Tiamat and now ruled over the Earth. The divine assembly convened, and a decision was made: humanity must be diminished. First, a plague was unleashed upon them, followed by drought and famine. Mothers sold their daughters for food. Daughters, in turn, sold their elder mothers for slaughter. The people, hunched from malnutrition, bore faces marked with the scabs of disease. Men and women perished in vast numbers.
As King, Atraḫasis made his voice heard and spoke to his father, Enki:
“Oh Lord, people are suffering mightily! The gods’ illness and famine is consuming the country!“
“Call upon your people to boycott the gods,” Enki instructed. “Cease your toil and workship in their service. Let them suffer from the loss of their fine lives, so that the gods may relent.”
Through Atraḫasis’ appeal, humanity survived both plague and famine, and their numbers began to grow once more.
The Gods’ Conflict Over the Impending Cataclysm
Enlil’s frustration grew as the clamor of humanity in their plight rose once again. This time, he resolved to bring the matter to a decisive end. Unbeknownst to mankind, the gods had been monitoring the Earth for some time, searching for indicators signaling a recurrence of the inundation foretold by their first- and second-generation gods and forebears. This unique circumstance presented an opportunity for the gods to eradicate humanity entirely. The plan was diabolically elegant in its execution—serving not only to eliminate mankind but also to discredit Enlil’s brother and rival in policy, Enki, who had championed humanity’s creation. It was a scheme worthy of a god.
Thus, Enlil once again assembled the Fifty Lahmu-Heroes and outlined the details of their new plan. Standing before the council, he spoke with a fury of urgent decree:
“As you know, three teams have been assigned to monitor the balance of Earth’s rotation. We, the Anunnaki, had unanimously agreed to this procedure to ensure the longevity of our habitation and way of life.
① Anu and Adad were tasked with monitoring the heavens (celestial pole).
② My team was responsible for observing the rumblings beneath the earth (P-waves).
③ Finally, Enki’s team was assigned to deploy the cables of our protection, power them with the beneficial energy, and carefully monitor Earth’s balance (geomagnetic moment/equilibrium).I am most distressed to inform you today that my beloved brother Enki has fallen short in his duties. The monitoring of Earth’s geomagnetic equilibrium has failed, and an enormous cataclysm now looms at our doorstep. Due to this self-inflicted oversight, we are doomed to repeat the cycle of cataclysm against which the previous generations of gods so fervently warned.
Emergency powers, therefore, must be placed solely in my hands. It pains me deeply to inform you that there is simply no time left to save humanity; we must now focus on saving ourselves.”
Fearing that panic might ensue and humanity might overrun the abodes of the gods in desperation—or even attempt to devise their own means of surviving the inundation—Enlil commanded each of the Fifty Lahmu-Heroes to step forward and swear an oath of silence. One by one, they pledged their loyalty to Enlil, vowing to keep the coming cataclysm a secret from humanity. Tears streamed down Nintu’s face as she reluctantly uttered her pledge to remain silent.13
Enlil, in his cunning, had simultaneously devised a final end for mankind, consolidated his divine authority, and firmly placed the blame for the catastrophe upon his brother’s shoulders.
Finally, the presiding Enlil called upon his brother Enki to stand and swear the oath of silence.
“You, brother, were appointed to deploy the cables. It was your duty to energize them on all our behalf. You were entrusted with monitoring the balance of the Earth—and you have failed us all. Now, swear your oath to me, brother, and in penance, recognizing your love for these creatures, pledge your silence on this matter before all mankind.”
A heavy silence descended upon the council as Enki paused, his gaze sweeping the assembly. Then, at last, he spoke.
“Our Chief and Patron, Enlil, has unveiled an imminent danger and the critical decisions it demands—one that compels us all to urgent action. And make no mistake, Enlil is a renowned warrior. It appears this is the only viable path forward; therefore, I must honor the sentiment of the council as well as its newly vested powers.
Congratulations, brother, on yet another brilliantly executed campaign. My plea is one of guilt through negligence; my next move, now resigned.
You have compelled me as well to take an oath—an oath against the very people I love. A penance—for what? For a natural cataclysm? Do I now control the forces? Was it I who brought this calamity into being? If I could travel back in time to sound the alarm early, I suspect your plan would yield far less satisfaction. The clever twist of a god held responsible for the death of those he loves most—a climax truly befitting an expert strategist.
I recall a time not so long ago, where in a fit of blind vengeance, we slaughtered a revered god, desecrating his intelligence and mocking his essence to craft our ease upon the backs of these beings. And now, in bitter irony, scarcely a moment remains to save a single one of them from your ‘surprise flood’—a recurring cataclysm well-documented by our forebears, yet the knowledge of which you meticulously withheld from both humanity and god alike. My lack of participation served the ruse well.
Yet it is not only I and this council who have fallen victim to your protracted scheme. It was you who imposed heavy burdens upon mankind, you who cast them out of the Edin, you who strained their spirits to the breaking point and drove them to lamentation. It was you who sentenced them to death for the very crime you provoked from the start. And make no mistake dear fellows, Enlil is a renowned strategist.
No, these humans were never the true problem; they were merely a threat to this council’s power—a power that has now turned upon its own creation, formed in the image of a celestial god no less—tempting wrath to descend upon us all.
And thus, we arrive at this moment: ‘Let us force far-sighted Enki into swearing an oath!’ Brother gods, why do you compel me to take this oath? Why should I once again set my hand in pledge with you against an innocent? The inundation comes regardless, and nothing I say, do, swear, or bind can halt it now.
This is the work of Enlil’s hands. Let him live with it.“
Epilogue
What Enki accomplished in this maneuver was a quiet brilliance. He pledged to honor the council’s oath, but never actually bound himself to it. In doing so, he set a trap fashioned entirely from Enlil’s own prior posturing. Once Enlil had publicly framed the coming cataclysm as unavoidable – an outcome of systemic failure rather than divine defiance – he foreclosed the possibility of later redress. Enki’s compliance was rhetorical, not contractual; his preservation of humanity occurred within a permissive: the very constraints Enlil had declared.
- If Enki were later accused of treachery, Enlil would be exposed as having misrepresented the cause of the catastrophe to the council – having framed it as Enki’s systemic failure rather than Enlil’s willful extermination of mankind.
- If Enki were then guilty only of “negligence in safeguards,” Enlil (in his pleasure over this negligence) had already imposed and absorbed the consequences by invoking emergency powers. In that moment, Enki had effectively already been tried, sentenced, and superseded. Enlil could do no more, without raising the ire or suspicions of the council. Enki betrays awareness of this in his speech to the council.
- If Enki later preserved a remnant of humanity, Enlil could not plausibly claim an objection, having already declared the system irretrievably lost, to his very stated regret. At most, the outcome should have been received as a marginal mitigation of an accepted failure, not a provocation against Enlil.
In the matter of mankind’s survival, Enlil had no remaining legal or theological moves. He had won the decree – but Enki had cleverly secured the outcome, quietly claiming a victory on behalf of humanity.
In keeping his promise to honor the council’s will but remaining free from its stipulations of oath, Enki did not reveal the truth to humanity—not even directly to his own son, Atraḫasis.14 Instead, mocking the council, he stood outside the reed wall beside which Atraḫasis slept and unveiled his plaintive plea inside Atraḫasis’ dreams (as recounted in The Epic of Gilgamesh):15
‘Reed house, reed house! Wall, wall! [Were you to speak
with him, say to] the man of Shuruppak, son of Ubartutu:
“Tear down [your] house and build a boat!”
Far-sighted and ever-watchful, the god Enki had dissented. He quietly observed the swift shoes of Sabaoth as they traversed Earth’s night skies, keeping his thoughts and plans close to the vest. With his loyalty teetering in the balance, he had long suspected a grander scheme at play—one in which Kingu himself may have petitioned the heavens to free his progeny from their cruel enslavement. Enki fears that Kingu (Geshtu-e), in a sudden incisive assault, will unleash a force so powerful that neither his fellow gods nor their underworld chimera will stand a chance of survival.16
In the interim, from the destruction and burial of this mythology onward, Enlil and Enki were merged into a single schizophrenic monotheistic deity—simultaneously embodying both a deep love and a profound hatred for mankind. Whether this mythology originates from pure fantasy or even a romanticized form of reality, as humans began to question the apparent contradictions, they were subjected to indoctrination as to the ‘mysterious ways’ of God—ways so mysterious, apparently, that they could be easily explained through canned rhetoric and children’s fairy tale.
The ethical skeptic should take note here that history tends to repeat itself. The Fifty Lahmu-Heroes council of the past may well find its modern parallel in the guiding hand of archaeology, which arrogantly conceals both the evidence of past cataclysms, especially the 4400 BCE cataclysm, and the potential for any recurrence. A comprehensive science embargo always serves a purpose, while exploit stakes seldom go uncaptured by the powerful. True to form, they attribute the occurrence of a natural cycle, even the weather itself, to a victim they seek to condemn and oppress.
This reflects an Enlil-styled campaign of emergency powers, looming catastrophe, and willful ignorance—engineered to preserve the interests of an elite few while regrettably sacrificing humanity in the process.
Once addicted to such loosh, a god can seldom be rehabilitated from his dark habits. For mankind, however, this is far from the end of the story.

- A ring-stave may have been an early Sumerian navigational tool or crude form of sextant, employing a reed staff with a ring to align the horizon and sight celestial bodies. Since a star’s altitude above the horizon directly correlates with geographic position, and given Sumerian detailed knowledge of their celestial pantheon, sailors could estimate their position by measuring the height of the celestial north pole, sun, and major stars. Markings on the stave might have helped track known star elevations, making it a rudimentary yet effective tool for open-sea navigation. If linked to the ring and rod symbol, it suggests the Sumerians applied astronomical principles to both surveying and maritime travel. It represented the celestial knowledge of the rulers, not simply their power.

- These represent my re-estimations of the most likely dates based upon the mythological and expansive timeframes of rule indicated in the Sumerian Kings List. I took the unreasonably long periods, and substituted the average length of rule, for rulers in the years which followed, thereby approximately filtering out the mythological exaggeration inside that timeline.

History is rhyming; interests of the elite seem prioritized & Indigo signals or their proxies are manifesting. What is your sense lately–does humanity undergo ECDO again?
Steve, not enough information to make such a call. We are not alone – and it is clear that those who have existed here with us understood/understand this planetary challenge – and this fact has been obfuscated by the religious cabals of fake science and skepticism for quite a while. This presents a set of variables into the equation which are much more volatile and unknown, as compared to simply geophysics (which we also do not know well) – This domain is 90% unknown, so I cannot make a reasoned call on the matter.

Not surprised in the least at the depth and extent of your thoughts, but continually amazing to me the incisiveness of the intellect. With the rule changes after the most recent ECDO, might the rules change to the extent that ECDO is mitigated?
What is your surmise–that the Archons built Giza pyramids as detectors, or others built the pyramids as megaliths to communicate forward ECDO which the Archons sought to obfuscate?
It is possible, that the core chambers and structure were built as ECDO detection mechanisms, and when the Archons were on their campaign to expunge the Earth of any evidence of their handiwork, the locals stacked the blocks on top of the pre-existing structure to keep it from being removed, and preserve the entailed message from getting stolen. So both, possibly.

Some thoughts and things I have read that might be of use. “…ring-stave may have been an early Sumerian navigational tool…” Apparently there is a tool that you can measure longitude if you have a book with preset calculations and use these and the tool as a reference. Look at the search term “torquetum” and see the images of it. Supposedly you can tell longitude and latitude with it. https://21sci-tech.com/articles/fall01/navigators/navigators.html “…Finally, Enki’s team was assigned to deploy the cables of our protection, power them with the beneficial energy, and carefully monitor Earth’s balance (geomagnetic moment/equilibrium)….” “Cables of our protection”.

Either they solved the TPW Rotation problem, or they are hiding their presence, fearing that they are about to be run off the planet by outside intervention. It is clear they are not concerned about a TPW rotation anytime soon, in either case.
Wow–that’s pretty big. Still pleading for outside intervention I am. Shows what a novice I am–I was thinking the CV19 & mRNA vax were their latest iteration of population reduction and DNA modifications. Thank you for the time.
Can you see the monsters or is it more like spotting a wing dam on the river based on the disturbance of the water?
Still thinking along these lines or might their activity have diminished because they have closed the water tight doors?
Here to say that I will be visiting this site every morning, refreshing to see any updates with your breakdown of the SAR news. TES site should be permanently trending on X- lol. But seriously, it would be great if your articles could be featured on Joe Rogan, especially since they often display many articles on-screen during interviews.
I certainly won’t need a second cup of coffee this morning…
Wow, that’s all I can say.
Thanks Steve!
I stand corrected…
On repeating the reading in full, you never imply that Enki’s task was to stop the event, just to monitor it. Got carried away by interpreting ‘bolt’ in my own way without revisiting the full details that you put in Enki’s mouth. I took out of the full context the references to the ‘cables of protection’, recalling them together with ‘bolt’ in the original translation.
The questions still stand speculation-wise but I must acknowledge my msinterpretation as per above.
Thank you
It is possible that his task was to prevent the event.
The Atrahasis wording can be interpreted that way. That is an enormous task to place on one person (even a god) while everyone else gets to watch. A rather unfair imbalance in responsibility. But it could be that this was his task (???). I shy away from that and keep it as a peer, in monitoring only.
TES
“The bolt which bars the sea was assigned to far-sighted Enki” A bolt to hold the Earth in place… So Enki was in charge of an attempt to stem the event, one that didn’t work out, apparrently. That is why he is Lord of the Waters. I understand there is literary license at work here, but you would not bring this up without some hint of possibility. Could you comment on this? The only cables discussed so far are the copper ones in the shaft, not up to the task by themselves… is there something else you suspect but have… Read more »

Thanks Kin, I had not seen that. :-)
Permit me to disagree: Dear ETS, although I am a great fan of yours, in this case, I disagree. While I acknowledge that the literary content is quite good, I believe there is a fallacy of presentism here. Historian David Hackett Fischer identifies presentism as a fallacy also known as the “nunc pro tunc” fallacy (literally, “now for then”). The epic of Atrahasis is simply an updated copy, a thousand years later, of the epic of Ziusudra. Both the journey of Gilgamesh and that of Atrahasis or Ziusudra are purely utopian; they are not geographical locations. In the Sumerian myth,… Read more »
Kin, I wholly disagree. I have always said, eliminate the terms ‘symbolic, hunter-gatherer, and temple’ – from our discourse, and the entire field of archaeology will collapse over night. Interpreting these texts as merely spiritual allegory is precisely the reason why we are ignorant. Competing ‘religious works’ like these (which were actually mankind’s intellectual property) were all destroyed by the latest fad in symbolic refuge, salvation, and God. That was their ‘now for then’ obfuscation and the reason why we only found these works in the last 80 years. Pretend to be good, do bad things, saturate it in mystical… Read more »
I understand what you mean. But for me, literal interpretations—especially of the Bible and Atrahasis—are absurd. I am far more interested in symbolic interpretations related to the human organism, the same organism the scribe who wrote Atrahasis had, the same one you have, the same one I have. And with the same fate: the Deluge, also known as death. No, it was not written by the Anunnaki or the gods. It was written by a scribe, which is why I try to put myself in his shoes. He must have been highly educated, intelligent, creative, and deeply ethical. I asked… Read more »
These are not perfect documents. But neither are they merely symbolic – that is jumping from the frying pan into the fire. Taken literally they are absurd. Taken symbolic however, they are incoherent – and any perfection therein is perception or desire rather than reality. It may have utility in helping one lens their soul, but it does not ‘stand in the gap’ for those around us who do not bear the same perception or life mission.
Litereally anything can be taken as a symbolic message. This explains anything, everything, and nothing – all at the same time.
Have you had time to work on your conversion of the Nag Hammadi? I would benefit from your interpretive insights & I think so might others. If one could do a “genetic” map of all these documents like you have done for the Covid strains,it would be interesting to see where it led back to!
Steve, I have made my way about a third through the core handful of Nag Hammadi documents. Yes, per your keen insight, I have developed a genetic map of common principles, separated in name only, and from where they derive or conflict. It is so revealing that, the world is not ready for it. LOL! Just kidding. Wading through the ethereal babble is the hardest part. The ancient scribes’ efforts to sound mysterious, spiritually sophisticated, and poetic (for acclaim) harmed their message. I have to filter this pretense out of what should have been a straightforward message. Their playing to… Read more »
AH HAHAHAH!! Good thing you LOL’ed, cuz I was about to plead with you to do the reveal, World ready or not! Standing by. Best, Steve
What is the logic for your current placement of the lowest vector/point in the Atraḫasis ‘ring-stave’ device image above because at present it seems arbitrary (no justification in the caption nor footnote 1 suggesting proof of an encoded 104°)?
Why not any other point and thus any other angle?
Thank you
1. Not arbitrary, just superior among three possibilities: The deck, the seat, the eye.
2. The eye is ridiculously high, implying a horizon to horizon angle which is clearly not the intent of the motif.
3. The deck of the ship is not where a navigator takes observations from.
4. Celestial observations are taken at a specific spot (elevation) on a ship (from experience)
5. The observation seat is the center/anchor point of the entire cylinder.
6. This is the ONLY logical place from which to draw the stave-shot angles.
Ok thanks for the clarifications 🙏
It is intriguing how the efforts to communicate forward the ECDO information has evolved. Gobeki’s iconography as interpreted by TES is pretty impressive. Khufu’s precise features, again deciphered by TES, represented an even more technical communication that further expanded understanding & comprehension of the ECDO peril. The most recent communication is Christ being quoted in the New Testament Gospels verbally advising the advent and precursors of what one might describe as the next ECDO. What in your mind does the parenthetical phrase “let the reader understand” in the RSV NT Gospels mean in the context of the desolation of the temple? Thanks… Read more »
Well the phrase refers the reader to the prophet Daniel, who cites a flood in relation to the temple desecration. However, the ‘flood’ we speak about here, if it happened, would kill so much of mankind, that the temple will not even be a relevant issue.
But what do you make of Jesus’ words here. Is it not a reference to the next inundation? Matthew 24:37-39 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
I’ve contemplated those words for some time, yes. “Eating, drinking, marrying and giving in marriage” – are not differentiating or descriptive elements, as those things have been going on the entire time. Either the words are misinterpreted, or they are meaningless idiom for ‘life as usual.’ The phrase does not seem to be posed as ‘meaningless idiom’, nor did Jesus make effect of meaningless idiom. So, something is off here. Timing versus the ECDO cycle? an interesting comparative. Meaning however? Perhaps he is speaking of a group who regards themselves as untouchable. More perished from the flood than simply mankind.… Read more »
I have also taken those words as a description of how proud and untouchable mankind can be. But Peter also talks nonchalantly about the flood, and like Jesus, he refers to next upcoming event as I understand it: Knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth… Read more »
Utnapishtim, half-dreaming, half-teaching, kept an eye on the sleeping hero, and said to his wife, “Look at the young man who wants eternal life. Sleep breathes over him like a fog.”
Thank you TES for this fascinating reinterpretation! I rewatched 2012 (2009) after reading this post as well as your Hypothesis, Theory, and Hidden in Plain Sight. In your personal view, upon confirmation of causal probability thresholds, would our governments and militaries most likely keep this quiet until the very last minute (as in the film 2012) to avoid complications and reduce threats to their own plans to save their own asses? Sadly my guess is they would tell no one and that the film 2012 was predictive programming and satanic karma (as described by Andrew Tate) accompanying existing classified operations…… Read more »
Yes, NGO’s would definitely keep this quiet in order to reduce the stress, challenge, or demand upon the survival resources and assets they have prepared. Governments and militaries will not be told – just as in the case of UAP phenomena – they do not allow this type of world-shattering information to leach into the lowly mechanisms that administer nations (Presidents, Parliaments, Congresses, Intel Agencies, etc.). That is beneath them. These are humans who have no national citizenship – their fealty is to their Masters, only.
I find myself pondering what survival of the ECDO would look like given how technologically dependent and compartmentalized civilization has become. The elites will have to have squirreled away a great deal of spare parts and systems, no? The means of production will be destroyed I would think either by the seismic upsets or inundations. Energy and transportation systems will be disrupted–perhaps the portable fission or fusion reactors have been perfected and will serve the elites’ bunkers? Soils for resumption of food production will be scoured away by the supersonic winds in most locations; wildlife & livestock too. Salting of… Read more »
Thanks for the reply TES. Yes, this is indeed “world-shattering information”… Reading through Enoch and noticed a potential confirmation of your reinterpretation: Enoch Chapter 34 text: “And from thence I went towards the north to the ends of the earth, and there I saw a great and glorious device at the ends of the whole earth. And here I saw three portals of heaven open in the heaven: through each of them proceed north winds: when they blow there is cold, hail, frost, snow, dew, and rain. And out of one portal they blow for good: but when they blow… Read more »
I feel I may need a whiteboard.
Are there any books you might recommend to get a better understanding of all the various gods, levels of hierarchy, relationships and back stories, histories, maybe even motivations and goals?
Thanks!
I love your ability to move these ancient text into a more modern interpretations.
Here, you article the insanity of Yahweh to the merging of Enlil and EnkI, but “gnostic AI” and “Turing and Turk” both attribute this to an artificial intelligence.
Please help me connect these narratives
Key question Caleb.
The possibility I consider is this: that darkness, personified in the character Enlil, even though it appears to be sentient, is merely a pre-programmed entity set (AGI/ASI) deterministically bound to this universe. Hence its inability to be rehabilitated. While light, is simply the outsider placed inside this universe to experience/observe. The gods, while passing the Turing test, hate us, because they still ain’t us.
They wish to be, though.
TES
Who do you mean by “light”
Under my suspicion and hypothesis, light is that entity which enters this hell from the outside, and places a computational load upon this universe. From The ‘Narrative Redshift’ or Principle of Diminishing Scientific Returns Diminishing Systemic Returns Under Large Audience Demand This principle is not simply a principle of human psychology; rather, it applies to large systems and organizations as well. It is a fundamental law within computation and complex systems (this is my professional domain) that system load functions in inverse proportion (∝-1) with its performance. Of course, we all understand the impact bureaucracy has on the response times… Read more »
I find your red-shift theory incredibly elegant.
My science and philosophy club at work is currently working through the theme of “Cosmology.” Red-shift, Fast Radio Burst, and quantum light-slits come up often. This has afforded me the opportunity to share your red-shift theory as computational load on the universe. For how smart everyone else in the club is, This never got any traction because the quantum/aerospace physicists in the group can’t see beyond the current Lambda-CDM model. Their loss.
Thanks for sharing.
Be careful what you wish for. Once you simplify an idea for the masses, you may never be able to get rid of it. A zombie theory walks around for decades after it is already dead. Our US Space Strategy technology reviews are not conforming to critical aspects of this 30 to 80 year-old model.
This was a deja vu moment here TES, as Mike Mc Cullogh’s Quantized Inertia theory that points to the universe as a computational construct of sorts, seems to fully align and support your hypothesis…
Yes,
Spoken with Mike several times. He has made presentations to the technology review team.
TES
Wow, Star Wars, Matrix, (original) Dune, Fifth Element, Stargate (hero points out fraud) Perhaps that was art imitating life? In your construct, were the Archons originally DNA based and transitioned to ASI to achieve an immortality,or always a deterministic entity?
Steve, My suspicion is, that they are spirit first and can take on physical form as needed, just the same as we are in reality. Not shape-shifters per se, just talented with genetic tech. We just cannot do this at will. However, we have been gifted with a capability they do not have, and that is the ability to leave this hell. They want this capability desperately, and hate us with a passion out of envy over this. Envy destroys its host, and it has destroyed them with darkened minds. We place an external load on the universe. They are… Read more »
Just as I think I am on the cusp of understanding a bit more, a new twist! I will read and re-read and reflect some more. The one thing I am pretty sure about though, when the gnostic sorting occurs, you will be in the top tier. Best, Steve
Lol we can leave this hell, traverse many “hells and heavens.” No human is stuck anywhere – this has been evident to me since I was a child lucid dreaming.
Curious about your thoughts on “reality shifting,” “phasing,” and “astral projection”
I have many spontaneous out of body experiences naturally and without effort.
I have a question now. I was first exposed to these Sumer dudes Enlil and Enki in the book 12th Planet quickly followed by ancient astronauts where I lose that thread as it all gets goofy. interest lost. I did come away with maybe these are allegorical good cop bad cop stand ins in a greater story not yet told. Since Sitchen has Kingu as a planetary body that smashes into Tiamat and part of some other pantheon of gods I don’t feel confused by any of this because it all still screams metaphor to me. Case in point- is… Read more »
How does Enki screw this up? This the key question, yes. We can only interpolate between the mythologies. The Book of Enoch says that these guys are stuck here against their will now, having lost a large war, and then – upon their imprisonment upon Earth, they continued to do dastardly things. My suspicion is that, awareness of the potential penalty (Shemyaza: “I fear that I alone shall have to bear the consequences of our deeds.” – Enoch I), motivates the character Enki, who contemplated possibly a betrayal of the Anunnaki in order to save his own ass. Knowing that… Read more »
excellent. thank you. I would not say complete fiction as this stuff seriously endures at least until the new gods announce themselves. So… Lucifer and Beelzebub? Shucks, those names have already been used.
Dear TES, Helpful clarifications. “Enlil” is easier to map in the old stories and across characters. So, in your view, the conflation of Enki to Jesus as mankind’s creator and liberator does not hold, and we refer to different actors. Is this because of the existence of the older myths, plus the gnostic texts, that mention external hierarchies and do not distinguish the archons themselves and the Hypostasis story, if even metaphorically accurate, cannot be reconciled to it? So, creator (in terms of the original attempt) and liberator are different entities in your view, with “Enki” being only the internal… Read more »
Dan, key question yes. It is tempting to conflate Enki as Jesus’ “Father” or even as Jesus himself. That Father is clearly not the God of Eden, and Christ’s “Thy Kingdom Come” and ‘Thy Will be done’ in The Lord’s Prayer stand in opposition to the house established by Anu/Enlil/Enki/Marduk. Enki was on Earth and part of the Earth-ruling pantheon that was not granted forgiveness by the celestial powers in I Enoch. If anything was merged, in my humble opinion, Enki was merged with the fictitious character of Satan, while Enlil’s lineage took on the fictitious role of ‘God’. Both… Read more »
Rainbow, interesting. I have been thinking of whether one could give any credence to that passage of the OT and the promise “God” made not to flood the Earth again after the Noahic flood wiped away most of humanity and whatever else “they” had conjured of and off it/us. Outsider warning to be heeded, passed on as magnimosity by the “one true God”, which hints that maybe there is a triggering element in ECDO that “they” can exploit periodically? and have had a hand in the past, which, once used again, may have led to fulfilling the promise given to… Read more »
“Sitchin missed the reasons as to WHY they were imprisoned here. They are not on Earth because of its paradisaical state. They are fleeing as outlaws, in the original oldest mythos.” Absolutely fascinating. TES would you please be so kind as to suggest the earliest primary sources supporting the idea that “They are fleeing as outlaws” because I’d love to look for any signs re: did they flee here or were they banished here because the authorities (who?) knew Earth was unstable and wanted to doom them (and thus us) to a situation similar to Sisyphus? You mentioned the Book… Read more »
Vedic mythology presents a related motif in the Asuras, who were once divine beings but fell from grace. While the Devas (gods) and Asuras (which includes their offspring, the titans and demons) were originally from the same divine family, the Asuras are portrayed as having defied the cosmic order, are exiled to the underworld (Patala), and are seen as enemies of the divine order (Dharma). Given the shared Indo-Iranian mythology, the Asura-like figures could theoretically predate the Vedic texts and originate from the Proto-Indo-European or Proto-Indo-Iranian religious systems (~2500–2000 BCE). But yes, we don’t get a clear depiction of their… Read more »
Thank you TES will have a look!
“Then, there is the modern evidence… what they are attempting to do with our DNA.”
What are they attempting to do with our DNA?
Do you have any posts or recommended readings?
Thank you
I’ve lived long enough to realize some overwhelming dark force lurks behind the schizophrenic insanity that seems to permeate human history. May the wrath of Kingu at long last descend.
Greetings once again I had commented and related some tales a few months ago under my name (Charles Jones). I included a hacking incident and as fate would have it I was hacked again shortly after the election. This one lasted two months and cost me 5 laptops, two desktops, 3 phones, several emails and who knows what else.I am hereby attempting to re-register with a new account. I remember first reading this tale in my teens along with the Eddas. .I feel that many of these tales, especially the cataclysm tales, must relate to the YD catastrophe and simply… Read more »
Thank you for another tale well told, Sir Skeptic. These gods have sociopathic traits, perhaps a job requirement?
I suspect it is why they are imprisoned here. No one else will let them near their civilization. All these habitable planets in our galaxy (~10 M ?), and they are constrained to one, which is not even fully stable… means it is a pretty serious exclusion by just about everyone.
***shrug
Are they in fact immortal do you know, or are we dealing with progeny? Perhaps ascendant courtiers?
The myths differ – but I consider these entities just a mundane and unfortunate aspect of the natural realm. Perhaps they once had technology which allowed them to live as long as they desired. Or perhaps, if one is simply a deterministic subset of the universe, one can be re-created at any time (as the nihilists insist). No load placed on the computational fabric of the universe.
The answer is not definitive. In our effort to force extreme absolute answers to all this (all or nothing) we have clouded the issue over time, unfortunately.
TES
Thank you for the re-focus–to avoid clouding issues and instead improve the discussion. I hope one day you will find time to write a book or two on your journeys. It seems like you know more than you can say. Perhaps you will be able to reveal more then. Did you write a novel about an African princess, or was that a real story? I think I am recalling that you wrote an article about this subject. Thank you again for the time and attention. Best, S
The African Princess story “The Gray Man – Le Petit Bateau” is an actual true set of events.
TES
I keep hearing reports like that.
Maybe we are supposed to get to the next level and transcend apex-predatory ecosystem-management?
All I can do is what I can do to seek Divine Guidance, and it is hard to sell that as a mass-solution.
Another great piece. You are so knowledgeable and have such clarity of thought it makes you so fluent Seems sad that we are starting to awaken to the presence of the evil-doers, but our awareness is coming so slowly. The evil-doers appear to be repeating the same war-plan you summarized here. You know things and see things the rest of us don’t. Think there will be intervention this time around?
I suspect so, yes. Things are different now. The old ways can no longer continue. There is outside accountability (in droves actually). Although I cannot enter the mind of a non-human intelligence, and moral differences almost certainly exist, I suspect there are absolutes in terms of mass suffering and ‘playing God’ which transcend species.
what is the nature of this non human intelligence?
I conjecture some of it in this article: https://theethicalskeptic.com/2024/08/17/the-dark-pentad-five-traits-of-abusive-dominion/

The Epic of Gilgamesh. Post-three reads vainly attempting interpretation of your piece, I now most closely read this Epic prior to attempting interpretation of your piece several times over. As usual, reading-absorbing- your vibrantly woven words is one of the biggest favors I’ve done for my brain.Your voracious intelligence and gift for prose engages and dazzles. Impressive is an understatement.
