The Library of Alexandria

[Hazel]

A fascinating history... (narrated I think, by Mr. Spock: Leonard Nimoy)... of the known, yet scant histories of the Library of Alexandria. It's believed and well documented in recent times, that the Vatican, in its own secret libraries... has copies and perhaps originals of the manuscripts/books of that time and earlier, that originated from that Library.

Something to ponder in wonder, about our Ancient lineage of knowledge...

Gnost - 'lost' to us... ?

Thanks for sharing. And This thread had reminded me of what Dolores Cannon recounts in her own past life (incarnation) story about when she was a caretaker of books at Egypt's library in Alexandria. The man that she was, died, trying to escape with an arm full of scrolls as the place was being torched. Knowing this helped her understand the focus of this life, she says: lost sacred knowledge and books, books, books.

Thanks for this, I thought that the Library was completely destroyed in the fire in 30 B.C. and didn't realize that it's decline was so long and drawn out.

I think we are re-entering a new age of the Roman Empire. We have Empire builders who appreciate much of what they conquer, but they have no interest in arcane knowledge or for the public dissemination of that knowledge, or for the enlightenment of humankind. The Rockefeller Foundation did quite a bit to bring public libraries to small town American a hundred years ago, but now the Rockefellers are working to fuel groups like the Bilderbergers, Trilateral comission and Council on Foreign Relations. They are striving to create the two tier society, where most are kept out of the loop, and a few, that are working to fulfill there goal, are given a real education. Knowledge is privatized, kept in private databases and libraries limited by subscription, classified or turned over to private corporations where is will be used for purposes of launching war and other destructive purposes that subjugate humankind to selected overlords.

Like the scribes who copied those scrolls and disseminated the copies through out the world that survive today, we are trying to get the real truth out there before it is destroyed or declared the property of the planets corporate overlords and hidden from view.

Really excellent video. thank you so much for posting it.

Yes, it was... there were a number of raids and fires over a period of several hundred years. It wasn't just one event.

I have a vivid recall (which had a huge emotional impact on me when it first hit me) of seeing the library burning. There was nothing anyone could do, and we all knew how important it was. But I do NOT know the date of that incident.

I'm convinced that many manuscripts and documents have been salvaged, copied, or copies always existed elsewhere... and are indeed being kept very secretly away from our inquisitive eyes.

Camelot witness Dr Pete Peterson (http://projectcamelot.org/pete_peterson.html) told us that he had been in the Vatican Library personally, on a CIA assignment, and that it was very similar to the way it was depicted in the movie Angels and Demons: not a dusty stone basement full of cobwebs, but an ultra-modern depository, temperature, humidity and pressure controlled — containing artifacts so ancient (some HUNDREDS of thousands of years old) that they could no longer be touched, but the information on or in them had all been extracted and was understood.

That's quite old.

Methinks that there is more than one competing faction within the Vatican. There is a possibility that the situation could play out as follows: as the competition between the factions becomes progressively more severe for the controllers, with what David Icke describes as Truth Vibrations have more and more effect on the physical plane one would expect some factions to start to selectively leak hitherto concealed information (including Library of Alexandria material) thorough to the alternative media. This, ploy would be intended to mass public opinion and thereby garner public support behind the 'leaking' faction, thus allowing them to steal a march over the other competing factions, as the various chess pieces are moved around in the 'information war'. I suspect that Ben Fulford was part of such an attempt. The point is that such a situation ought to be handled very carefully by the Alternative media. Perhaps Bill Ryan might like to publically comment on this point. Perhaps with his vast and hard earned experience in this field, he might be able to postulate how far Vatican sourced leaks are willing to go or indeed can go. Does Bill think that when push comes to shove will some Vatican insiders chose humanity's right to know over the traditional tendency to act as [information] control freaks? What advice does Bill have to give to a wouldbe Vatican whistleblower who might be reading this thread?

I'm also convinced that copies of all of the ancient scrolls have been preserved, at the Vatican, and also deep in the Himalayan mountain monasteries.

Gregg Braden also talks about having seen them in a monastery in Tibet.

There was a movie released in 2009 " Agora " about Hypatia of Alexandria which covers the 391 AD burning of the library.


Although a major plot line of the movie is the destruction of the Great Library by the Christians, the actual Library of Alexandria and its vast stores of scrolls and knowledge were (by historical accounts) destroyed almost 500 years before the events of the movie. Contemporary accounts of the Decree of Theodosius make no mention of this massive collection being destroyed, attributing this loss to the 48 BC Cesarean destruction.

Sounds like she was on the trail of Nibiru ?


Hypatia: Ever since Plato, all of them - Aristarchus, Hipparchus, Ptolemy - they have all, all, all tried to reconcile their observations with circular orbits. But what if another shape is hiding in the heavens?

Davus: Another shape? Lady, there is no shape more pure than the circle; you taught us that.

Hypatia: I know, I know, but suppose - just suppose! - the purity of the circle has blinded us from seeing anything beyond it! I must begin all over with new eyes. I must rethink everything!... What if we dared to look at the world just as it is. Let us shed for a moment every preconceived idea - what shape would it show us?

An interesting thought in many respects.

It makes you wonder at what level you gain access to the Vatican Library. Is it to all ordained priests. I suspect the library has levels upon levels and the older more classified documents and artifacts are only accessible by the top cardinals.

Up to a maximum of 900,000 years, I was told.

OK, so, if we are to postulate that the ancient history of this planet has been preserved and archived, then we can also surmise that only a few inhabitants of earth ( I use this term loosely) have access to this information and are taught the true history.

The rest of us are taught a barrel full of lies. What we "think" we know and what we believe about our heritage, is all suspect and up for review when more hidden information becomes available. I, for one, can honestly say, that my view of how things are and the history of this planet has totally changed in the last decade, and looks nothing like it did ten years ago, and that everything I thought I knew and held as sacred was ALL a lie. Not a darn single thing was the truth.

I know, in fact, this not to be the case. There are many schools of thought that teach true history, but they are still not fully open and accessible to a wide audience, only for initiates, and for a reason. But documents are becoming available with time.
In other words, there is nothing impossible and inaccessible for those who have 'a genuine' desire to know. I also use some loose terms here, too, but I hope the meaning is clear.
