Old Ideas Of What The Earth Was Like - original antique illustration ~ circa 1930 published in Great Britain This one really needs a close up view to see the amazing detail and imagery. Three titled illustrations depicting old ideas of what the earth was like. The first illustration shows "one idea in the very long ago that the earth was surrounded by water", a fascinating image. The second is "The Hindus used to think the earth was borne on the back of a Tortoise"...look closely and you will sea the "earth" balanced on three elephants who are standing on a giant tortoise! The third image shows "An early Greek map of the world, thousands of years old"...when it was thought the earth was flat. These are remarkable illustrations and remind us of how many variations there have been in ideas about the earth..from religion, mythology and science! There is text on the back (relating the themes) and it does not show through the paper. whole paper size 6 1/4" x 9 1/2" This is the original published item not a reproduction.

The profound influence of ancient cosmologies on our ideas about the human spirit• Shows how ancient myths contain a sophisticated understanding of our relationship to the cosmos, derived from thousands of years of observation of the night sky• Explains how ideas of the mind and spirit are still entwined with these ancient cosmologies despite the disruptive effects of modern astronomy• Reveals how ancient ideas and contemporary cosmology might be combined into a new model for spiritual meaningThousands of years before the first written records, humans were turning to the night sky as a source of meaning for existence and their place within it. The conclusions drawn from these observations are embodied in stories from across the world known as Creation Myths. Contrary to the popular belief that these myths were meant to explain the origins of the universe, Pete Stewart shows that they were actually designed to create a harmony and order in the lives of humans that reflected, in their society and architecture, the ordered patterns they saw evidenced in the sky.These ancient myths also record, in the story of “the separation of Heaven and Earth,” the discovery of a disastrous discord in this ancient harmony, which the mythmakers overcame by imagining a vastly expanded architecture, one in which the individual soul had a role to play in the evolution of the cosmos.Today science presents a similar challenge to our sense of meaning. Stewart explores how, by reexamining the myths of creation in this light, we can learn how contemporary cosmology might yield a new architecture for the spirit and how the ancient sense of being in the cosmos might be reconstructed for our age.

The quantum Consciousness entanglement field resides just below the fabric of spacetime. It is held in place by the electromagnetic force field that resides in the fabric of spacetime. Conscious, subconscious, & unconscious thoughts are instantaneously communicated between these two fabric force fields. The communications are held individually and collectively, for further use, as needed.
The cosmology and cosmography of the ancient Vedas is awe inspiring to say the least. The more “modern” of the Vedic texts are known to originate from approximately 3000 B.C., thus being the oldest scientific and religious doctrines known to man. The descriptions of our solar system and what modern astronomy has discovered of the visible universe corresponds with the ancient Vedic knowledge, proving that man has had advanced knowledge of astronomy for thousands of years before our modern civilization began. This article describes the Vedic version of planetary systems from the topmost, eternal planets down through the temporary planetary
