Introduction

Perhaps the most appropriate words to describe the history of mankind
on this planet are chaos and confusion. Our history is full of
discontinuities and the sudden, unexplained appearance and
disappearance of entire races of people. Perhaps the major one of
these discontinuities occurs in the Christian Bible in Genesis itself,
Chapter 3, for it seems like everything we know about the Universe
comes somewhere after the fall of Adam.

What would happen though if the most influential occurrences happened,
not only prior to Adam, but prior to the story of Genesis itself--
things so major that they affect everything that has taken place
since, and are still affecting things going on at this very moment?

It is the humble intent of this book to trace the history of mankind
right from its roots in the heart of the Creator Father to its very
present dilemma amidst the chaos of a world and a Universe run
rampant. It is not, however, the intention of this book to trace every
minute detail of every event which has occurred in that history.
Rather it seeks to uncover those patterns which give life and meaning
to that history; those patterns, some of which lie buried beneath
history like the underground stream which is such a central metaphor
or theme of the entire book.

It is important firstly, however, to begin with an understanding of
the ubiquitous image of the Tree of Life and the significance it plays
in world history and to all the world's religions. It is then
necessary that
we take a look at the major players involved in the Creation of this
Universe Itself, as well as their subsequent roles in shaping the
events of both world and universal history.

Though we tend to think of world history from grade school and high
school days as being a disjointed series of events where people such
as Columbus, or Sir Isaac Newton, stumbled onto some discovery or
invention, thus causing a newer and better world to be opened for the
rest of us, let me assure you in the beginning here, nothing could be
further from the truth. History is a lie we have been fed to make us
docile and to keep us ignorant of the true intent of those who have
manipulated events from the very beginning for their own benefit, and
for the benefit of those whom they serve. In the process of unraveling
this puzzle and fitting the pieces together, it is necessary for the
reader to temporarily suspend belief in everything they know and have
learned about both the Creation and about history in general. There is
a good reason why history and social studies are the two most hated
subjects at almost every grade in school. History, as written, just
doesn’t make sense. It is therefore necessary to take small bites of
it and let the material digest, watching as the bigger picture of
things grows before your eyes. It is then and only then that you will
be able to judge whether or not this picture which has been formed is
justly valid or not. No matter what racial or ethnic background the
reader comes from, no matter what level of education or social strata
they have achieved, or hope to achieve, and no matter what religion or
denomination they were raised in or currently belong to, any
preconceived notions of how history or the universe were created, will
only prove to be a stumbling block to understanding the story
unfolding herein, and to the resulting expansion of consciousness it
will bring.

It is as author Machaelle Wright says in relation to her work: "During
an expansion of consciousness, our intellectual understanding of what
we are experiencing is challenged because it is new to us. Like
anything new, if we try to force an understanding of it through the
framework of what we already know, we end up confused and possibly
misinterpreting the experience. If we truly wish to expand out
consciousness, that expansion can only serve to render our old
framework obsolete. Any expansion we might have can actually be
distorted if we try to force it through our old intellectual
framework, such as would happen with a round handful of Play Dough
squashed through a square shaping hole. Some of the Play Dough may get
through intact, but it is distorted, while much has been left behind
on the other side of the screen, hopelessly lost for use in the new
construction.

"If we attempt to use our old framework when tackling new material
such as is here being presented, we will tend to experience what we
think we are experiencing instead of what it is that is actually
happening. Or, worse still, we will tend to read into things what it
is we want to hear, rather than getting the truth from what it is we
are reading. We need then just to put the intellect aside--to just be.
Let this new experience, this new knowledge, integrate itself
naturally into our being. Like a Zen master would proscribe, if we
just get ourselves out of the way, life will show us what we need to
know and what it is we need to be doing.

"In this way, we can allow the formation of a new and more logical or
intellectual framework. As a result, we will then gain a completely
different understanding. The experience itself will build its own new
logical framework. So, as you read this work, just let the expansion
or processing happen naturally. As you do, you will be surprised at
how much easier it is and how much more you really understand."

Just put everything you think you know aside like a suspension of
belief needed for some grand and wonderful science fiction story, like
a ride at Disneyland, just put everything aside, strap yourself in
firmly, sit back, relax and just let yourself go. Your body and your
soul know how true this story will be for both have an innate sense of
knowing what is true and what is not. The mind will always have
question upon question, but that’s okay, just put them aside and in
time all things will be answered for you.

Let it be known first then that there are some prerequisites needed
before entering upon this particular voyage of expansion of your
consciousness:

First, is the understanding of how language can be used to alter
perception. This is especially true when it comes to historical texts
which were written in one or more languages which have then been
translated into English or the language we understand. The structure
of many languages allows for alternate meanings of a single word, or
shades of meaning that can vary so greatly as to throw off our
understanding of an entire event or reason for something happening.
Just as a teenager may use the word `cool' to mean something is
`wonderful,' so too might another person use the same word `cool' to
express the temperature of their bath water as being "tepid" or "not
warm."

Language can also be used as a means of encoding certain information
that we wish to transmit, while still making it impossible to
understand for those who we do not wish to understand our true
meaning. During World War II, the BBC broadcast innumerable such
encoded messages into Occupied France and Europe in this form, usually
in the simple guise of a valid news story or meaningless phraseology.

When setting out to write this book, it quickly became evident that
language would be the key to unlocking many of the clues to what was
really taking place in the history being uncovered. The word ‘God',
for instance, is actually a relatively new term in the annals of
history to describe those Beings some people worship as their creator.
It has now become a generalized term in English speaking countries for
something "which was in the Beginning" and is responsible for both our
presence and possibly also for our current dilemma. As Zecharia
Sitchin explains in his works, the word most commonly used in ancient
Sumeria for these gods was "lord," and this crops up again and again
in various translations of names used for the ancient gods.

A serf in medieval England also called the owner of the estate, `My
Lord’, and even though that owner may hold a great deal of power over
the life and death of the serf and his family, the lord was certainly
not a god to be worshipped. This is true of many places in history,
and many historical texts where the title used to indicate a person's
role or station in life has come down to us more commonly understood
as that person's name, rather than as their title. Jesus Christ is a
good example of a title being used as a name.

A second prerequisite before reading this book is an understanding
that everything in the universe is made up of atoms, tiny particles
vibrating at a certain frequency within a seemingly empty mass of
space. As explained in the chapters on creation, not everything which
exists can be seen with the physical eyes. Every day we are getting
more and more confirmation of this very fact, both on an individual
level, and in the general area of public events. Higher dimensional
beings such as angels and ascended masters simply have a higher
vibration which allows them to be "on Earth" without being visible to
the naked eye. As we become able to `raise' our vibration as well,
many of these things become `visible to' or at least ‘sensed by’ us
and then more about the ‘other worlds’ can be known.

Consequently, it is also necessary to understand that all life in the
universe does not vibrate at the same frequency as the life-forms here
on Earth. The Universe is made up of many multi-dimensional levels on
which Beings have existence, either similar or dissimilar to our own.
Many of these Beings interact and have interacted with our own
dimension since its inception. Each race or group of entities has its
own agenda, and many of these agendas can be discerned through the
channeled writings of certain entities who claim to be friendly to the
planet Earth and who have only our best interest and ...
