Timing is everything. Irish archaeologists recently discovered an enormous egg-shaped temple lies directly underneath the Hill of Tara in County Meath, Ireland. Tara means `compassion', `love' and `enlightenment'. Though phonetically similar tara is the polar opposite of terror. Tara and Terror express the two opposites, the `dualing serpents' or the active and passive principles in nature. They are the light and darkness confronting us during this Age of Terror, which, prophets promise, instantly can transform into an Age of Tara. As my readers know, mine is a quest for Tara.
The Hill of Tara, known as Temair in Gaelic (the language of the children of the Ge-Al, fair, bright, the Sun), was once the ancient seat of power in Ireland - 142 Irish Pope-Kings of Tara are said to have reigned there in prehistoric and historic times. Tara was the seat of the Church of Tara (`love'), whose Pope-King (and queen) opposed the mighty forces of Terror.
The Hill of Tara. Maps show that these are concentric rings , the universal symbol for the gate to God.
Conor Newman, an archaeology lecturer at the National University of Ireland at Galway, located the subterranean temple of Tara. Since 1992, Newman has been working on the Hill of Tara preparing a survey of the area for the state-funded Discovery Program. He found the Tara monument using an underground radar device. "It fills a very important place in the jigsaw because it allows us to make sense of the distribution of other monuments all around it," says Newman.1
The Discovery Program, set up under the auspices of the Heritage Council, carried out a survey of the Hill of Tara between 1992 and 1996 when Mr. Newman was director.
When Mr. Newman moved to Galway he continued to be involved in the project Using sophisticated technology, he and his team of experts mapped what was underground. Like Theseus, they seek the secrets of the labyrinth-dwelling Mino-Taur, the King of Tara. The work is slow and tedious, because it has yielded such a huge amount of information.
What they uncovered eventually at the crown of the hill was a huge, oval-shaped monument measuring about 170 meters at its widest point. Around it are 300 postholes measuring two meters wide. Evidence indicates this `Crown' (tiara) of Tara was constructed through an enormous effort. 300 towering oak posts once surrounded the hill.
"We think it probably dates from 2500 to 2300 BC and still had a big physical presence even after the posts were taken out or rotted," Mr. Newman said.2
This is the approximate time of Abraham, the "son of Terah" who became the patriarch of Judaism, Christianity and Islam (the three religions at the root of the holy War on Terror).
His "Oaks of Mamre" were well known and long revered.3 Credible evidence of them has never been discovered in the Holy Land. However, in Ireland clear evidence is found at Tara.
Legend says Abraham's oaks existed from the beginning of the world, and used to be green and bear leaves until his descendent Jesus died, when it and all sacred oaks were cut down.
Jesus (called Pan-Tara, `god of Tara') is known in ancient Irish history as Iessa, a name derived from I.A. or E.A. (pronounced Eye-a), the Sumerian creator god who was portrayed wearing a fish suit. Lord Melchizedek, the Pope-king of Jerusalem (Ire-u-salem) and forerunner of Christ who initiated Abraham and his wife, Sarah,4 is equated with E.A. The Irish called him the sun god Fin (an Irish name for the Sun), a pun on fish. The Irish are called the Children of the Sun, because in Egypt Ra, the Ray or the Ra-Eye is the Sun. Ra's symbol is an eye . Hence, the term Iris or or Irish.
Fin (E.A.) presided over the Tara assembly, as a Druid in strangely flowered garments, and with a double-pointed head-dress and bearing in his hand a book. His two-headed miter of fishy form, his upright rod, spotted or checkered garment and basket in hand, are symbols that align him with E.A. His column (i, eye) or pillar of Tara is remembered as the Tree of Life of numerous traditions.
Priests of E.A., the King of Tara, wearing fish suits tend his i pillar. E.A. is typified as the pupil in the eye, with wings and a tail.
They say a great prophet will arise in the West who will miraculously cause this tree of Tara to bud and blossom.5 This prophecy is of immense importance during the War on Terror. Particularly when considering that Sumerian myth interpreted by Zecharia Sitchin says E.A. was a genetic scientist who came from the mysterious, and presently controversial, Planet X. He founded the civilization in ancient Sumeria (modern Iraq).6 Like Sumeria, Ireland comes into history as a full-fledged kingdom, and its sudden origin has perplexed many an historian. Sumerian culture matches, if not coincides with, the early Irish. It's as if one culture is the continuation of the other. With the war on Terror focused on Iraq, the discovery at Tara is magnified in importance.
Hidden beneath the soil of Iraq and Ireland are the secrets of E.A. Saddam Hussein, among others, is presently seeking these secrets. This is what makes the discovery at Tara so important. This Irish site represents the balancing force of terror. Fortunately, the Hill of Tara is readily accessible to inquiring minds.
While the monument is located just below the ground's surface, there are no plans yet to dig it out. "There was a time when excavation was the first step in archaeological research," Newman told the Irish Examiner. "That's not the case now because it really is the systematic destruction of a monument. When you are dealing with something as important as the Hill of Tara, you don't do something like that lightly."7
Mr. Newman reckons they will be able to learn more about the site from the data before the ground itself is finally excavated. "What we have is the clearest underground image I have ever seen. This one jumps off the page."8
Mr. Newman is concerned about a planned extension of the N3 motorway from Clonee to just north of Kells. One of the sections from Dunshaughlin to Navan runs along the east side of the Hill of Tara. Newman has absolutely no doubt that they will be destroying dozens of monuments connected to Tara (and E.A.). While the site is home to many known archaeological treasures, this latest discovery reveals that the real treasure exists underneath the sacred hill. What's in the cellar at Tara? What toys of E.A. are in its attic? A look at Irish mythology points to profound possibilities.
THE ILLI
Tara is the prehistoric home of the magical Tuatha Dé Danaan, who are considered to be direct descendents or reincarnations of the biblical Shining Ones (Elohim or ILLI-AM).9 The Sumerians called them Anunnaki (literally NUN, `fish' of AKI, `light'). Tara was the burial place of the Illi Kings of Tara, and researchers give the nickname, "Valley of the Kings", to the site.
The natives who contacted the Illi upon the Hill of Tara called them the Nobilli, from Nob, Irish for high, heaven and sun. Evans-Wentz notes that they are described as a race of majestic appearance and marvelous beauty, in form human, yet in nature divine.10 The Illi (the mysterious root of such words as Illuminati) are divided into two classes: those which are shining, and those which are opalescent and seem lit up by a light within themselves.11
In ancient Irish (Iris) religion and mythology Tara was also the sacred home for the Ari (later the Ari-ish or Irish) who ranked below the Illi gods, yet above the people. Ireland (Ari-Land) takes its name from the Aris (`lion' -- ili-on -- in Hebrew) or Arians. Ireland is considered the Great Motherland of the Aryan race, otherwise known as Atlantis, Thule or Tula.
Aryan or Ari-an is a Sanskrit word meaning `noble'. The Aryan race has been wildly misinterpreted. The root of the misunderstanding is in the Sumerian claim that E.A. cloned the first model of human as a slave race. Into the blood of a second `advanced' human, the Ari or Illi, he put sacred knowledge. He then separated this new human from the others, taking them to an island home, Poseidon/Atlantis, of which he was the Pa-Tara (father) and founder, the Potei-don or `Lord of Wisdom'. His half-brother Enlil, who sought to keep humanity at the level of dim-bulb slaves, opposed him.
When Enlil discovered E.A.'s second creation, which he believed could challenge his superiority he sent the flood. By E.A.'s cunning a semi-divine family survived the cataclysm and afterwards repopulated the Earth. Read backward Tara is Arat, `a divine man', and the location of Noah's Ark (Ararat). Ari means `noble' or `divine man'.
Early in the history of the world, the Japhethites (the `blessed' sons of Noah),12 or Aryans, split into two groups. One group settled in India and the other group in Ireland and Europe. Together they form what is known as the "Indo-European" family of nations, the Aryans.
`Lost' was the knowledge that the prefix `Ari' or `Illi' refers to the enlightened or divine blood of the Illi gods that ALL can achieve, as opposed to a specific human racial group. The Illi priests who are the keepers of the blood secrets of Tara link the Irish and Indian people.
In India Tara, one aspect of Maya the mother of the Buddha (and the Maya of Mexico), is the name for the Golden Embryo from which the world was said to have evolved, and is often called the "Star". She is the naked goddess of compassion who pours out Living Water from a jar. She is said to lead the devotees to "the other shore."13
Tara is traced to Sumeria and Babylon (Iraq) where this goddess is known as Istar or Is-Tara, i.e. Is-Terror. Hermetic texts invoked her as the Astro-arche, Queen of the Stars or Star Arche. Arche is the `first' element, the living waters or `the matrix'. Arche is also Arch or Ark. When all the puns are tabulated, the Queen of Tara, the Mother of the Gods, is the queen of the water ark .or stargate.
As I discussed in The Healing Sun Code, the oval or egg is a female symbol for the galaxy, and the universal womb or matrix of space-time. Since the Paleolithic times the beginning of life has been described as the hatching of a Cosmic Egg laid by a Great Mother bird, the golden goose (or ghoost, as in Holy Ghost) of fairy tales. When this egg cracked open all life appeared. Cosmic energy or essence, the seed from which all life, including human, sprang into existence and fanned out in waves.14
The oval shape of this temple of Tara makes it a hologram of the galaxy. The Druids called its center Tula. Tara, Tor, Tower, Towa, Toowa, Tua, Tula, Tala, Tara are interchangeable terms, and are connected with Star, the Ish-Tar Gate to the other world.
We know very little about this Gate due to the efforts of the Kings of Terror. However, much can be learned from the Irish recollections of E.A. The Irish root word Ea (aodh, aoi) means fire or the light which lightens all, and raises us out of earth life. These are the secrets the forces of Terror seek to withhold from humanity. To the Irish E.A. also signifies: a cause, matter in course of change, a compact, a confederacy, the learned, a vocation, learning, science, wise, a flock, knowledge, discipline, instruction, honor, respect, a country, an island, a tribe.15 According to Irish belief, E.A. spawned Heber (`fire'), Ibir or Ibiru, the root of the word "Hebrew," a name given to a high priestly order or degree of the ancient Irish Sun Kings,16 and the religion of the Irish Iesa (E.A.) the Christ, the Sun God. The Israelites emerge as the Iesa-raelites, or disciples of Iesa, and the Ibiru, who are the, N, or people of Nibiru, aka Planet X, E.A.'s homeworld (or spawn, egg).
Irish legend speaks of the four treasures (`power tools') brought by the Illi: the Stone of Destiny, the Sword of Destiny, the Wand or Rod (Ray) of Destiny and the Cup or Ark of Destiny. It was E.A. who originally delivered the four treasures in his effort to uplift humanity to the level of the Illi.
One local interpretation of the name Tara says that it means a "place of great prospect" and indeed on a clear day it is claimed that half the counties of Ireland can be seen from atop Tara. Cross-checking the philologists we find that `Ta' means house and Ra means `light', `fire' and `love' (the root of ra or ro-mance). Early in the 20th century a group of Israelites came to Tara with the conviction that the Ark of the Covenant, the Cup of Destiny, was buried in on the famous hill. They dug the Mound of the Synods in search of the Arc but found only some Roman coins. Official excavation in the 1950s revealed the circles of postholes, indicating the construction of substantial buildings here.17
The Ark of the Covenant is the altar the Hebrew god Yahweh. It was placed in the holy of holies of Solomon's Temple atop Mount Moriah in Ire-Salem. Sitchin maintains this site was the home of an Anunnaki communications center. On the Day of Atonement a select rabbi would enter the Holy of Holies and unveil (de-cloak) the Ark (open the gate) to reveal the She-kina presence of God in the Temple. Interestingly, altar is a shortened form of Al-Tara, the Hill of Light (Al), the place of the Rising Son of God or Tara.
Likewise, Tara was considered the Illi's gateway to the etheric Otherworld (O-Tara-World, the Egyptian Neter-Neter Land). Passage tombs dot the surrounding countryside. The passage tombs or mounds are called Sidhe (pronounced `she'), a pun on the She People or Shining Ones (the She-Ning Ones) who adored Ana, the Great Mother of All Living, for on Tara stood the great Stone of Ana (`heaven', `light'), the Ish-Tar Gate to the Otherworld, where, from the earliest dawn of Irish mythology Keltic rites were performed.
The religion of Innis Fail or the "Ile of Light" as Ireland is called centers on E.A.'s Stone of Ana (Lia Fáil, Stone of Destiny), a phallic standing stone, which is one of the four treasures brought to Ireland by the Tuatha Dé Danaan.18 When the true king leapt onto this Stone of Light (Illi), it shrieked.
Lia Fáil, Stone of Destiny.
It is claimed that this stone was set up between 580 and 520 B.C., coincidental with Tara's first king, the wise man Ollamh Fodla. Some researchers believe he is none other than the biblical prophet Jeremiah (Ari-miah), who rescued the princess of Judah, princess Tara, and brought her to Egypt, and later, Ireland. Of utmost interest is the figure from whom he was protecting the princess: Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon. As I have explored in my book Ark of the Christos: The Mythology, Symbolism and Prophecy of the Return of Planet X and the Age of Terror, he placed three wise men in the fiery furnace (`stargate') near the plain of Dura (Tara?) in Babylon. To his surprise, the Son of God appeared. Nebuchadnezzar called him Nabu, an Irish word for Heaven, sacred, and holy. John the Baptist claimed Nabu was Jesus, the King of Tara.
In or about the year 583-582 B.C. (some four years after the Destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar), Jeremiah and Tara (and her secretary, one Simon Brug) arrived at the Port in the North-East of Ireland, now known as Carrickfergus (in a ship belonging to the Iberian Danaan). They brought with them a massive, strongly-secured and mysterious Chest, Case or Ark, which they regarded with the utmost reverence and guarded with jealous care, a Golden-colored Flag or Banner, having blazoned upon it the device of a Red Lion, and a large rough Stone, the Stone of Ana.
Some claim the Coat Of Arms used by Great Britain is a spiritual reminder of the Messiah's (the King of Tara's) return to claim the Stone of Ana (`heaven') on the Hill of Tara and introduce an Age of Peace (`Tara').
The Muslim god-goddess, Alla (or Illa), symbolized by a rock or stone, shares this stone as his/her emblem. It is known as the Holy Grail or Stone of God in Christian tradition. An eye above a pyramid (see the back of the one dollar bill) represented the Stone of Heaven, as Ishtara (Ashtoreth to the Phenician or Finician `Sea People') is the Star of Love, very often represented as an eye.19
Shiva (S/he-va), the Vedic/Aryan name for the female Trinity and Unity, is included in this pun. A phallic tower of Tara (called a lingam or illi-ngam in India and an Ashtara by the Hebrews) symbolized her. S/he is Il, Illi, Al and Ra, love, the light. Around each pillar of light for a radius of 100 cubits (approximately 150 feet) stretched the sacred kingdom of the Illi, where miracles could occur. The temple's operation was called "opening the matrix" (of living water) in biblical terminology.20 This is described in Revelation 22:1, "And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God (TARA) and out of the Lamb.
Now this tower-bearing Diana, the Queen of Tara, is expressly identified with Semiramis (also called Ish-Tara), the wife of Nimrod, the founder of Babylon and builder of the Tower of Babel. He built it in retaliation for the Flood. An image of terrifying power, the Babel (`gate') was a tremendous threat to Yahweh, the Hebrew god who destroyed it, and separated humanity by language so that we would not repeat this performance. Afterwards, the meaning of Babel was changed from `gate' to `confusion'. Humanity's connection to the Gate of Tara was lost.
To the Egyptians Semiramis was known as Hathor or Athor. Athor means the Ether, the primordial substance, the matrix (the mother matter). The Egyptian gods, including Hathor, were called neter or (n)ether. `N' stand for people. Ether is the root of etheric, fifth element or `power tool', and the secret science of the Ari, the etheric or `light' people. An egg symbolized them. Beginning in 400 AD, Enlil/Roma hoped to finish the Ari's religion of Issa (E.A.'s science of transforming human blood into the blood of the Illi) and assimilate its symbols for its newly formed religion about Jesus. Information about the secret teachings of E.A./Issa/Jesus in India, Ireland, England and America before the Crucifixion was concealed or destroyed.
In 1169 the Church of Roma began a major assault on the the Irish religion and the Mother Church of Love.21 After English warriors conquered this land, (which natives called the Blessed Isles for having survived the cataclysm of Atlantis), English priests rewrote its history, calling it Ireland (from Ir - the end or "finish").22 The Church (Enlil, Roma, Terror) called it thus because it thought it had `finished off' the race and religion of the Ari (E.A., Atlantis, Amor, Tara), which it had been battling since the Council at Nicea.
After defeat by the combined forces of Roma (which later included Britain), Tara became a cursed place. The Illi were banished to the interior world. The Catholic Church transformed them into devils. Their stature was considerably shrunk in size, too. This is evidenced by the term henceforth applied to them, fairy folk. The Tuatha Dé Danaan were described as tall, blond and fair-skinned. By adding a `y' suffix to their name, a demonic or diminutive image was created.23
The Church transformed the Potei-Don or King of Tara into Potei, Patti, Patty or Saint Patrick, a Church hero who is probably a fabrication of priests who said that, instead of bringing enlightenment, he came to Tara to confront the ancient religion of the gateway at its most powerful site. Patrick and his followers prided themselves on burning three hundred volumes of Irish histories and Druidical writings.24
Roma's persecution of Tara was not limited to Ireland. In 1244 the Church or Roma sent storm troopers to the Languedoc region of Southern France and massacred hundreds of thousands of Cathars (`pure ones'), the French children of the Church of Amor (the reverse of Roma, and French for `love', tara). To obtain and destroy the coveted secrets of Tara (including its Bible, the Tarot), which were held by the King of Tara (the Arthur or Ar-Tara), was Roma's singular mission. History shows that Roma did not stop at employing torture or any other means to carry out its ends. By the terror of the sword billions have since embraced the Church of Rome. The secrets of Tara and the Gate to God went sub rosa. Always attempting to resurface is the Church of Tara.
The destruction of the teaching of E.A. (the King of Tara) has never been completed. The investigations to be made at the Hill of Tara will have far-ranging implications on our understanding of ancient Irish history and the story of E.A. This understanding will enlighten the origins of Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, as well. They will reveal their common roots. The temple's oval shape suggests it could reveal the Atlantean science of enlightenment, the secret of the opening of the matrix, of these profound beings.

Interesting? Definitley! Authoritative? Not a chance! Just a quick read shows the author is playing fast and loose with words and meanings, especially English words. He assumes because one word sounds like or is similar to another, they must be the same or come from the same root and meaning. Linguistically, this is a load of horse-pucky.
I may have some Irish in me, but that's just a quirk of genetics and ancestors marrying and producing off-spring. I have German, Swiss, possibly some French, and possibly some Native American in my blood, too. If anything, I'm a Heinz 57 human, a little bit of everything. Fru has all that plus some Welsh (he's my son). This is is interesting from an archaeological standpoint, but hardly "proof" of LDS doctrine, or British-Israelism. You know it, I know it, everyone who has more than 3 functioning brain cells knows it.
RIGHT AWAY THE ANIT-LDS COME OUT OF THE WOODWORK ---
TRYING TO MALIGN; To make evil, harmful, and often untrue statements about; speak evil of.
Nope, about as far off base as you can get. Not trying to malign anyone or anything, just pointing out self-evident fact. I made no attempt to mislead, rather it is you who are trying to do so, by calling into question my motives, rather than deal with the issue.
That does not mean I hate the members of that organization. As a follower of Jesus Christ I pray continually for their repentance and conversion, and you are included in that prayer.
Hit the abuse button if you wish because the word HATE is in the same sentence as your beloved church. My hatred for the theological enterprise of Mormonism is fueled all the more by seeing so many Mormons of such good character and compassion. Alas, if our faith is not in the right place all the personal righteousness in the world will not save us.
Let it stand as your testimony for Judgement Day!
OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! We're all quaking in our boots....
What's yer problem? Can't stand it that someone else sees your false religion for what it is? I am a follower of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God, Creator and Eternal Diety, and not "a" god, nor the son of "a" god who was once a human like you and me. I know what LDS teaches, and it's WRONG!!! Joseph Smith was deceived by a demon called Moroni (funny how the word changes when you drop the "i"...) and British Israelism and all its offshoots are lies from the pit of hell. You're deceived, and you don't like being reminded of that fact, and it IS a fact!
I say you can RAIL all you want but!
"The Lord, Jesus Christ on Judgement Day will be the final arbiter!"
No worries on my endWe'll continue to hope and pray our misguided net friends will run to the one true God before that wonderful day arrives.
And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight, The clouds be rolled back as a scroll; The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend, Even so, it is well with my soul.
It is Well with My Soul is one of the most comforting hymns that I know of.
