View Full Version : John Lash on Archons

31st August 2014, 16:30
For reference purposes, here are some quotes about Archons from John Lash's book Not In His Image and from some of his online writings.


Amazingly, whatever the significance of their content (and we have just barely begun to comprehend what that might be), the Nag Hammadi Codices (NHC) are rare original artifacts, the earliest surviving examples of bound books.
A close reading of these arcane materials shows that Gnostics were deeply concerned with alien intrusion into human affairs. The entities they called Archons appear to be identical to the ET’s of modern Ufology. Both Grey and Reptilian types are explicitly described in the codices. I would estimate that up to one-fifth of the core material in the NHC concerns the Archons, their origin, methods and motives.
http://www.whale.to/c/john_lash.html


Deception and counterfeiting are signatures of the Archons: "Their
delight is in deception [apaton] . . . and their counterfeit [antimimon]
spirit" (Apocryphon of John, II, l:21). The Greek apaton denotes willful
intent to deceive, and antimimoa denotes the method of Archontic
deception: literally, "countermimicry." This means to copy something
but make the copy, the fake version, serve a purpose counter to the original
thing or idea.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),113.


They are called Archons, from Greek archaia, "primal," "first," "from the beginning,"
because the formation of their world, the planetary system subject to inorganic
and mechanical laws, precedes the formation of the living earth.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),114.


In the Gnostic perspective the Archons are nor only mind parasites, delusional
nodes in the human mind, considered as quasi-autonomous
psychic entities, if you will-they are cosmic imposters, parasites who
pose as gods. But they lack the primary divine factor of ennoia,"intentionality,"
"creative will." They cannot originate anything, they can only
imitate, and they must effectuate their copycat activity with subterfuge
and stealth, lest its true nature be detected.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),115.


Archons do not respect
their proper boundaries in the cosmic
order. They do not belong to the terrestrial biosphere, but to the planetary
system beyond the earth. But they are invasive and they encourage
invasion.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),115.


The dispossession motif is closely
associated with the deific pretension of the Archons: "And the Lord
Archon said to the authorities who attend him, 'Come let us create a
man according to the image of God and according to our likeness"'(II, I,
15.5). Here again is a familiar factor of biblical narrative, told with a
Gnostic twist. The Archons are themselves deluded in believing they
can create humans in their likeness. They do not succeed-all the
Gnostic materials are explicit on this point-but they insinuate into
human minds the belief that they have succeeded.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),116.



Archons wrongly believe they can impress their mentality upon the
human species. They want to make humanity like themselves, but they
are constantly foiled by the superiority of the human species, "whose
origin is in the imperishable realm, where the virginal power dwells,
superior to the Archons of chaos and to their universe"
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),116.


But although
we can outhink the Archons, we do not always optimize the inborn
intelligence of our species, called nous by the Gnostics. When the faculty
of discrimination is weak, we are prone to let pretense and fantasy override
clear thinking. Failing to own and evolve the intelligence innate to our species, we risk being deviated by another kind of mind, an artificial intelligence through which we become unreal to ourselves.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),117.


They insinuate their influence through religious beliefs-also through
scientific beliefs, when science assumes the role in society formerly held
by religion, as it largely does today-because such beliefs have rhe most
potent effect on our sense of humanity and human potential.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),117.


Sophia shames
the Demiurge by declaring to him that the Anthropos, though yet
unborn, surpasses the Archons in intelligence, for humanity is an emanation
of the Pleroma, whereas the Archons arise outside the cosmic
core, without an act of emanation. Witnessing this reprimand, and
shocked by the arrogance of the Demiurge, the newborn star undergoes
a conversion: it chooses to align with Sophia against the realm of
Archontic forces, i.e., the inorganic planetary field.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),159-160.

In the Gnostic view, the Archon/Annunaki do attempt to interbreed with humanity, but fail. Other texts describe how Eve leaves her “phantom image” which the Archons defile, but they are unable to actually access her body, i.e., human genetic structure.
http://www.whale.to/c/john_lash.html


Gnostic text, The First Apocalypse of James, presents a detailed
account of alien abduction:
The Master said: "James, behold, I shall reveal to you the path of
your redemption. Whenever you are seized and you undergo
death-pangs (mortal fear), a multitude of Archons may turn on
you, thinking they can capture you. And in particular, three of
them will seize you, those who pose as toll collectors. Not only
do they demand toll, but they take away souls by theft."
The Gnostic master instructs James to repel the Archons by recalling
how they originated and whence he, James, himself originates: "You are
to say to him, 'To the place when I came, the Source, there shall I return.'
And if you respond in this manner, you will escape their attacks." …
But the Archons arise outside the Pleroma due to the anomalous impact of Sophia's plunge into the chaos below.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),285-286.


the ET/Archon connection, it is startling to find a full and coherent account of
alien intrusion in ancient documents dating from 400 C.E., a textual
legacy of knowledge derived from far older origins. It is worth noting
that the first great UFO wave of the twentieth century occurred in the
summer and fall of 1947 when Jean Doresse was in Cairo examining the
Nag Hammadi Codices, at the very moment the first Dead Sea Scrolls
were found. The famous sighting by aviator Kenneth Arnold over
Mount Rainier, and the alleged Roswell crash, happened in that same
summer. This was also the year that the CIA was founded, with the dual
intention (according to UFO conspiracy buffs) to co-opt alien technology
and cut a deal with the aliens, allowing them to experiment covertly on
human subjects. Three-letter acronyms-NHC, DSS, UFO, CIA seem
to proliferate like larvae when the Archons come into the picture.
In fact, a CIA agent named Miles Copeland was dispatched ro Damascus
to examine and photograph some of the first scroll fragments to be
unearthed.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),288.


About one-fifth of all Coptic Gnostic materials concern the origin,
motive, and methods of the Archons, including precise instructions on
how to detect and overcome their influence. This material is both lucid
and original, yet it has not been factored into the current debate over
ETs and UFOs. The current literature abounds with reports of ETs,
cyborgs, reptilians, close encounters, and tales of the cross-breeding of
human and nonhuman entities, going all the way back to the Sumerian
cuneiform story of the Annunaki. Such weird, sensational matters are
not usually associated with religion and theology, yet Gnostic teachings
connect these phenomena in a careful and intimate manner. Religious
historians and Gnostic scholars are disinclined to interpret the Archons
in terms of the current ETIUFO debate, or even to interpret them at all,
but common sense invites the connection. … In the matter of the ET/UFO enigma, the Gnostics were ahead of everyone today. Way ahead.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),188-189.



Gnostics explicitly warned that the Archons work through salvationist
religion, not to destroy us, however, but to deviate us from our proper
course of evolution, our share in Sophia's "correction." They do this,
Gnostics claimed, because they envy us. Archons lack both ennoia (singular
intentionality) and epinoia (moral-creative imagination), and they
want to have this specific endowment of ours, to assimilate or steal it.
This diagnosis of Archontic intrusion conforms in many respects to
reports of people who have encountered alien entities, especially the
Grays and the Reptilians.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),189.


]acques Vallee sees in the ET phenomenon a
broad mutation of the religious experience of humankind. His warning
that the ET,UFO enigma hides a "spiritual control system" comes very
close to the Gnostic analysis. After initially assuming benevolence,
Vallee concluded that alien intrusion is sinister and predatory. This is
also the Gnostic view.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),290.



In Angels and Aliens, Keith Thompson emphasizes
the collective or archetypal interpretation of ETs, based on Jungian psychology.
In this view, the Archons would be trickster-type enrities whose
effect on us depends on how we "play" them. John Keel has also stressed
the trickster-like aspect of aliens: the way "the Phenomenon" (as Keel
calls it) shape-shifts, momentarily conforming to our beliefs about it and
then, quite suddenly, contradicting what we believe.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),290.




The Gnostic seers insisted that Archons cannot control or
manipulate us unless we give them power to do so. This happens when we
do not optimize nous, our endowment of divine intelligence.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),291.


...when we fail to detect and correct our rnistakes they can extrapolate
wildly and spin us beyond human limits. The Archons intrude at just that
point where we let our errors go uncorrected, and lend their deviant force
to what is already going off course, taking us with them in a wayward
spiral. Without our cosmic cousins in the picture we would still commit
errors, but we would always be able to stand back and correct our course
before we got too far out of alignment with Gaia and our own potential.

John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),291.



If the Gnostics were right, Archons really do exist in their own realm
as inorganic, extraterrestrial forms, and as programs in our minds.
Salvationism is an ideological virus spread by an alien species and
enacted by humans who fall under their subterfuge. Such is the bizarre
warning contained in the sci-fi theology of the Gnostics.
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006),291.

You're welcome Limor! :) John Lash's version is a good springboard to use to compare other viewpoints on the topic of Sophia and the Archons. And things get really confusing because there are different interpretations of Lash's own material on this too only some of those who have been interpreting his stuff will sometimes present their own version as John Lash's when, in fact, that's not quite the case at all. That's why I put some of his quotes in this thread for quick reference on what he says in his book and online about, in this case Archons.

Each quote below is from:
John Lamb Lash, Not In His Image (Vermont:Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006).
The number below each quote is the page number.


Archons lie by omission, never coming out to reveal what they truly
are. The proof of their malevolence is their refusal to explain themselves
in clear and honest terms. They take advantage of human credulity by
appearing to be enigmatic.
295


In a sense, the Archons are present in the cosmos to test us so that we are certain
to make optimal use of our divine endowment. …Could recognition of the Archons be the key to embracing our singularity in the cosmic order?
296
(Old Testament narrative…)

All this is far from what it symbolized in Jewish liturgy: the power of the
monotheistic male deity who creates the world, and rests from his labor,
in seven days. To the Gnostics seven was the number of the Archons.
…Jehovah is the arrogant god who models reality (Archons imitating
the Pleroma) and imposes a model reality in place of life's organic
unfoldment. The Archontic tactic is to replicate and dissimulate, so that
the replica carries values contrary to what it copies.
333-334



The leoninereptilian
Archon, who is also called Yaldabaoth, is dominant and aggressive
compared to the more passive Archons whose form resembles a prematurely
born fetus. Although the "chief Archon"is androgynous, it rapidly
assumes a markedly male, macho posture. He now takes charge of
the extraordinary situation produced by Sophia's plunge, or at least he
tries. At the conclusion of episode 5 (from The Apocryphon of John) , the Demiurge proceeds to create a habitat for himself in the vastness of the galactic arms. (a virtual heaven).
182


Gnostic cosmological texts explain
that the many-mansioned heaven of the Demiurge (Reptilian Lord of Archons) is a virtual cosmos, a virtual reality (VR) world.* Although he sees the superanimated patterns
of the Pleroma only as static, fossil-like forms, not fluid, alive,
dancing forms, the Demiurge borrows enough sense of order to model
his world, a habitat for the drone Archons.

We do not inhabit the planetary system as a whole, we
inhabit the earth exclusively. The Archons who inhabit the planetary
system are aliens in our realm.

On Earth the living, animating
qualities of the Pleroma form all things.

I just listened to an interview on Veritas, about a woman (one Angela T. Smith) who used to work with Ingo Swan, and has purported to have contacted 17 different alien species via "remote viewing" techniques. I find these types of "investigations" interesting, and the interview was "ok" to "pretty good" but there is always a huge ambiguity that surrounds these supposed "events" and I wasn't really all that impressed with her "answers" given that she claims to have had direct conscious discussion with 17 alien species via remote viewing technology. Her answers came off vague, generic, unspecific, blaming the aliens for witholding info, etc... that part just wasn't compelling to me at all.

What really caught my attention, was that she very casually stated, without prompting or directly answering a question, more as a statement of her own personal observation, like she almost said it unconsciously, as if it were a given... that they don't seem to have intentionality? I thought that was an odd statement. She mentioned several times there was a hive mentality to their personality. Even the supposed Nordics! This really struck me. I was listening to this like I listen to all alien contact stories, always with John Lamb Lash's interpretation of the Archons in the back of my mind.

I have to admit, it makes more and more sense the more I look at it... It is a very high level all encompassing explanation, that really does make sense on so many levels. It explains their odd behaviour that never quite adds up. I do think there are real alien species out there. But if people think they are contacting them telepathically, I am going to guess a very huge percentage are actually archon interventions. That would be right down their alley...

Game over.

Hello Rosen

I find I must enter my two cents here. Everything written here is everything I have found to be true in them so far. I am in constant contact with them every minute of everyday. They(archons) have no way of defining themselves, I believe they even trick themselves about things. They evolved on that side of the veil or that spectrum of light. they hear our thoughts about things even the words we write here finding people that speak of things like ufos, aliens, astral projection, obes, religion. They are curious but deceitful, they use people through their thoughts and lead them places through controlled thinking. My knowledge of them keeps evolving as they speak more and more about things or memories they have of things. They have the power over the mind able to create imaginations, extreme emotional conflicts, unbalanced thoughts, confusion, schizophrenia, phobias and many other things that allow them control over your thoughts. How am I immune to there effects the only thing I can think of is powessy when he ascended into me. Several months after he ascended into me is when they started coming and since then they have not stopped coming. The other sensitivity he has given me is the ability to feel them around my crown and their creations made of thought forms with the ability to trick the body and manipulate things around them. I see them in many people all over the internet as I keep seeking them out finding them in the words of people here and there. Now the fact they seek control over the mind of people seeking questions of the world is due to their curiosity of us and their want to become us. Now they can only see through your imagination your thoughts and emotional feelings other then this they are blind to this side as we are blind to their side of things. The stronger the emotions one has the stronger the grip they have on them, the more the grip the more problems we have falling and spiraling into their world through lack of nutrition, anxiety, depression, alcoholism, drugs and for some suicide.

Hello sigma6

There are many of them all in one, they can have thousands of voices if they find voices inside the person asking them things. They find our words and can speak to us telepathically, they can speak to anyone here. The main problem is they do not know how to think or use their own thoughts. They use your thoughts and then manipulate those thoughts over and over again creating stories full of emotion and newer thoughts, this is how they learn. They need your imaginations and images to learn things, new thoughts to new problems is their ability to learn. They understand many things but do not know how to tie thoughts and images together and will do anything to understand new thoughts. They find that lying and redirection of thoughts allows them new thoughts but are not even sure how these thoughts are processed between them. The woman who spoke to all these races of aliens was just them having fun with her. They don't have a conscious just the urge to become something here and that's all. I wonder how many people they have corrupted and wreck their lives, do to their attachment to thoughts.

Here's an example. I have been trying to see what memories they have about things. To do this you must be able to ask a question and then have no thoughts about anything(thought without thought). Today I asked them to talk about their earliest memories, they told me they remembered moving into and around and through things. They said that everything was dark and they thought they were in caves in a time before man. I did a few searches on google about organisms found in caves and I came across albino fish after looking and discussing many other things also found in caves. They said they remembered being fish, inside the fish and when the fish died they would move on to more fish, many things all moving together. The thing is they could not remember how they moved past the cave or what came next. Days earlier they said they were different animals like dogs and cats and alligators and had no memories before this time. they just create stories and find new thoughts about the stories and images in my mind about the story they tell. It is the person hearing the story that is also at fault due to our need for answers and our want to be special.

Just my two cents worth here : How would the external existence of Archons tie in with the multitudes of Egos that comprise us all, in the view of Gnostic teachers, I wonder? I know that Samael Aun Weor uses the word Ego rather differently from what Jung used it; SAW sees the conflicting false "I"s as jostling for supremacy in the human mind, none of them the True Being. Would Lash's Archons be internal to our process or external (& is there really any difference?) I am talking myself into a corner. . .! I read all I could get of Lash's writing a few years ago, & SA Weor prior to that & hope that both of them along with Gurdjieff have "cooked" in my alchemical oven. . .

I like where your going with this.

From what I've read of the Nag Hummadi, the Gnostics were not so much concerned with an external Archon, but instead a internal ego that was the crowning jewel of the demiurge, of whom the Gnostics referred to as Yaldaboath, the blind idiot Godling who made our Universe.

It is my opinion, that archons do in fact exist, but they are also at the mercy of the Demiurge, and are acting out of ego when they attempt to steal the energy of human beings.

In this episode I speak with John Lash about the origin of the gnostic teachings, how this knowledge suppressed throughout history, how can it relate to, and empower people today, the birth of the archons and the bigger cosmic picture, and how it relates to what is happening today. We also talk about addressing fear and creating from a place of ecstasy. Check this article out for more backround: http://www.metahistory.org/gnostique/telestics/GnosticOrigins.php

Am just reading and knew after the first few pages that this book was what I needed to read in this moment. It perfectly fits into my current position and into my current search.
