GUIDE TO THE ESSENTIAL
1 / Sound knowledge, to give us the tools necessary for
the trip.
2 / Sophia - Wisdom, to use the accumulated knowledge of
the past that will help us better discover our presence, the "NOW".
3 / Understanding, to accept
others who may have a different way to
our own with tact and
understanding as we go along or between
or around them in the journey
of life or among them or around them on the streets
of our life.
4 / Harmony, so we can accept the natural flow of
life.
5 / Creativity, to realize and identify new
solutions
to unknown paths on our way.
6 / Strength, to resist fear and move forward,
despite the
uncertainty of having no
guarantees or payment.
7 / Serenity, to stand firmly on our feet.
8 / Joy to all, always full of songs, laughter, and
joy.
9 / Love, the sure guide to the highest level
of consciousness in which
man is able to reach.
10 / With UNITY we go back there from where we
started, the position where we are
one with ourselves and all
other things.
For us the
motherland is above all! We are proud Hellenes!
Our movement is a social and religious movement with very important constructive goals for Hellenism and its' survival and progress. We support the study of Hellenic philosophy and the promotion of the Hellenic National Religion.
At the same time, we believe that it is necessary to have celebrations and ceremonies so as to be able to pay our respects to our philosophers who are the fathers of the Hellenes and the Hellenic nation.
Therefore, in Greece and the world it is most important that “real Greeks" who love Greece, Hellenism and the Greek Spirit, to take control of their lives and destination ....to create their own Hellenic religious community branches of our organization or to create their own independent Hellenic Religious Communities.

Για μας η πατρίδα είναι πάνω απ 'όλα! Είμαστε υπερήφανοι
Έλληνες!
Το κίνημά μας είναι ένα κοινωνικό και θρησκευτικό κίνημα με πολύ σημαντικούς εποικοδομητικούς στόχους για τον Ελληνισμό και την «επιβίωση και πρόοδο του». Υποστηρίζουμε τη μελέτη της Ελληνικής φιλοσοφίας και την προώθηση της Ελληνικής Εθνικής Θρησκείας. Ταυτόχρονα πιστεύουμε ότι είναι ανάγκη να δημιουργήσουμε γιορτές και τελετές ώστε να τιμούμε τους φιλοσόφους μας που είναι οι πατέρες των Ελλήνων και του Ελληνικού Έθνους.

Επομένως, στην Ελλάδα και στον κόσμο είναι σημαντικό ότι
οι «πραγματικοί Έλληνες» που αγαπούν την Ελλάδα, τον Ελληνισμό και το Ελληνικό
Πνεύμα, να αναλάβουν τον έλεγχο της ζωής και του προορισμού τους ... και να
δημιουργήσουν της δικές τους ελληνικές κοινότητες, δηλαδή τμήματα της ένωσής
μας ή δικές τους ανεξάρτητες ελληνικές θρησκευτικές κοινότητες...
For
us the homeland is above all. We are proud ethnikoi who believe that we Greeks
must support our motherland "Greece" at all times.
We
must do everything in our power to make Hellas a proud and special nation once
again. We Greeks need to create the philosophy of brotherhood, love and family
support for each other around the world. That is, we must behave like one big
family, always coming to each other's support, assistance and help !!
Για μας η πατρίδα είναι υπεράνω όλα! Είμαστε περήφανοι
εθνικοί και εθνιστές!
Εμείς οι Έλληνες πρέπει να υποστηρίζουμε τη μητέρα Ελλάδα
μας ανά πάσα στιγμή. Πρέπει να κάνουμε το παν για των Ελληνισμό ώστε να
μπορέσουμε να ξαναγίνουμε ένα σπουδαίο έθνος.
Εμείς οι Έλληνες πρέπει να δημιουργήσουμε την φιλοσοφία της αδελφοσύνης, αγάπης και οικογενειακής υποστήριξης ο ένας για τον άλλον σε όλο τον κόσμο.
Δηλαδή, πρέπει να συμπεριφερόμαστε σαν μια μεγάλη οικογένεια, πάντα να ερχόμαστε στη βοήθεια του ενός του άλλου και πάντα να υποστηρίζουμε ο ένας τον άλλον!!

We
also urge all Hellenes to exert pressure on all successive Greek governments to
introduce the teaching of our ancient Hellenic language in our primary schools,
high schools, colleges and universities.
Καλούμε επίσης όλους τους Έλληνες να ασκήσουν πίεση σε
όλες τις διαδοχικές ελληνικές κυβερνήσεις να εισαγάγουν τη διδασκαλία της
αρχαίας ελληνικής γλώσσας στα δημοτικά μας σχολεία, τα γυμνάσια, τα λύκεια και
τα πανεπιστήμια.
Υποστηρίζουμε την αρμονία και συνεργασία όλων των ομάδων
και κοινοτήτων στο κίνημά της "ΕΠΑΝΕΛΛΗΝΙΣΗΣ.
We
support the harmony and co-operation of all the community groups in the
"re-Hellenization" movement.
There are
many people who have a talent for distorting Hellenic history, religion and
Hellenic values of ancient Greece.
They have a
talent for distorting history in general. They make wild and inaccurate
assumptions and claims about the Hellenic people that supposedly willingly accepted
Christianity and many other attacks and negative lies and charges against our
forefathers and ancestors.
These people
align themselves with the many websites and blogs which are dedicated in
distorting our ancient Hellenic heritage with their many lies, with their
fabricated views of ancient Greek reality.
These
websites and blogs are written by the enemies of Hellenism. They have only one
aim in mind, which is to totally undermine, distort and destroy the great
legacy of ancient Greece and the ancient Hellenic people.
And the
saddest thing of all, they find many foolish Greeks, mainly Christians who have
first of all accepted this foreign Jewish cult religion as their own and
willingly have become the agents, the assistants of these website and blogs
owners on the internet in trying to exterminate the great reputation and
honorable name of ancient Greece and its people.
We thus must
remind all Hellenes to be aware and careful not to allow themselves to be
fooled by these websites and blogs which are available on the internet.
On April 9, 2017, the Greek government
officially recognized Y.S.E.E. and its Hellenic Ethnic Religion as a
“known” religion, granting it the right to openly worship, build religious
Hellenic temples, perform marriages and funerals, and write their religious
beliefs on birth certificates.
We firmly believe and are fighting
to have all the organizations of the Hellenic Religion, to be granted the
same legal rights by the Hellenic Republic.
We believe that the Hellenic Republic must
treat under the law all of its citizens equally and fairly.
Στις 9 Απριλίου 2017,
η ελληνική κυβέρνηση αναγνώρισε επίσημα το Υ.Σ.Ε.Ε. και την ελληνική εθνική
θρησκεία ως «γνωστή» θρησκεία, παρέχοντάς της το δικαίωμα να λατρεύει ανοιχτά,
να χτίζει θρησκευτικούς ελληνικούς ναούς, να εκτελεί γάμους και κηδείες και να
γράφει τις θρησκευτικές πεποιθήσεις στα πιστοποιητικά γέννησης.
Πιστεύουμε ακράδαντα
και αγωνιζόμαστε ώστε να έχουν όλες οι οργανώσεις της Ελληνικής
Θρησκείας, τα ίδια νομικά δικαιώματα από την Ελληνική Δημοκρατία.
For
us it is not enough to just conduct our religious ceremonies once a week or
once a month....
We
also believe it is important for our communities to participate in charitable
work. For our members to be alive and active members of society, helping people
in need. Helping those with problems and challenges that may be in desperation
and need special attention and care from us.
Also
to help those who are alone to be able to come back into contact with other
people, make friends, relationships and be able to rebuild their lives.
Για εμάς δεν αρκεί να διεξάγουμε μόνο τις θρησκευτικές
τελετές μας μία φορά την εβδομάδα ή μία φορά το μήνα ....
Πιστεύουμε επίσης ότι είναι σημαντικό για τις κοινότητες μας να συμμετέχουν σε φιλανθρωπικά καθήκοντα. Να είναι τα μέλη μας ζωντανά και ενεργά μέλη στην κοινωνία, βοηθώντας τους ανθρώπους που έχουν ανάγκη. Βοηθώντας εκείνους με προβλήματα και προκλήσεις, που μπορεί να είναι στην απόγνωση και χρειάζονται ιδιαίτερη προσοχή και φροντίδα από εμάς.

Επίσης πρέπει να βοηθηθούν όσοι είναι μόνοι ώστε να
μπορούν να ξαναγυρίσουν σε επαφή με άλλους ανθρώπους, να κάνουν φίλους, σχέσεις
και να μπορέσουν να ξανακτίσουν τη ζωή τους.
***
In the Hellenic tradition our lives are about reaching the highest level of
virtue.
Therefore we do good because it is the right thing to do.
We
participate in philanthropy because it is the correct thing to do.
We
become benefactors because it is what human beings must do.
We do
not do any of the above in order to obtain a benefit or a reward of any kind in
return.
As
Hellenes living a life of virtue is everything for us !!!!
*** Στην ελληνική παράδοση η ζωή μας είναι για την
επίτευξη του υψηλότερου επιπέδου της αρετής.
Ως εκ τούτου, κάνουμε το καλό επειδή είναι το σωστό.
Συμμετέχουμε στην φιλανθρωπία γιατί είναι η σωστή πράξη.
Γινόμαστε ευεργέτες επειδή είναι αυτό που πρέπει να
κάνουν τα ανθρώπινα όντα.
Δεν κάνουμε κανένα από τα παραπάνω για να λάβουμε όφελος
ή κάποια ανταμοιβή οποιουδήποτε είδους σε αντάλλαγμα.
Ως Έλληνες προσπαθούμε ζούμε μια ζωή της
αρετής, αυτό είναι το πάν για μας !!!
This
is what our Union and our Indigenous Hellenic Ethnic Religion is all
about....we welcome you to join us in this great quest and challenge.
Αυτός είναι ο στόχος και σκοπός της
Ένωσης Ελλήνων Εθνικών (Ε.Ε.Ε.) και της Αυτόχθονης Ελληνικής
Εθνικής Θρησκείας .... σας καλωσορίζουμε να συμμετάσχετε μαζί μας σε
αυτή τη μεγάλη προσπάθεια και πρόκληση.
Life is a gift of God (Gods) to us, the way we balance and live
our lives is
Our gift to God (the Gods).

Indigenous Hellenic Religion UNION of ETHNIC HELLENES - "Indigenous Hellenic Ethnic Religion"
ΈΝΩΣΗ
ΕΛΛΉΝΩΝ ΕΘΝΙΚΏΝ ( ήμαστε ΕΘΝΙΚΟΊ) - Αυτόχθονη Ελληνική Εθνική Θρησκεία
Who we are - What we stand for:
We HELLENES are an integral
part of the organic
Hellenic Ethnic (National) Religion,
participating in the wider Movement
for “Epanellinisi”
(Re-Hellenization of the Hellenic people)
We stand for the restoration of our authentic Hellenic Identity,
rejecting the perception of Judeo - Christianity that was forced on to our people.
Hellenism and Christianity are
two diametrically opposed concepts,
completely impossible to
reconcile or be reconciled upon the foundations of
common sense and logic.
For a Greek person, Logic is
the only perspective through which
one can know the world. The
spineless and servile faith,
genuflections and phobic
response of the Divine are concepts
foreign to the Greeks. Instead,
the prime requisite for
Hellenism, namely
“Eleftheroprepeia”, is the boldness and general
proud ideal of life,
Christianity stands for sins.
How can we make some reason
(sense) of Greek-Christianity, when the
two elements that are trying to
synthesize, in fact contradict one another?
Our objectives and Activities
• The establishment of a
systematic study of Hellenism as a Subject, also
all other matters relating
thereto.
• The solidarity of our members
- especially at the spiritual level.
• The fight against the
systematic denigration of Hellenism and
the good name of Greeks - both
external and internal enemies.
• Creating a spiritual center
for national self-awareness and
to serve the needs of
Hellenism.
• The formation of authentic
Greek Communities.
• Ensuring the basic right of
freedom of worship for
Greeks who wish to honor the
motherland and the Hellenic National Religion & Honour.
• Systematic training of those
wishing to study Greek in
depth, i.e. Greek Issues
(Philosophy, History, Art, etc.)
• The acceptance and promotion
of all the above are our goals.
*Our love and devotion to our spiritual mother
country Greece and to Hellenism, must always be a priority for all of us!

THE IDENTITY OF THE NAME "ETHNIC HELLENE"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Movements, political or religious, have the ability to shape their public image, their brand, the stigma with which they identify, and which makes the message they transmit more distinct, with corresponding success. The identity particularity of a movement, i.e. the set of elements that characterize it or differentiate it from others, the values, ideals, visions and expectations, obligations and rights of the members, all of these are judged, in conjunction with the HISTORICAL SYNGKYRIES, the prospect of their success.
On the other hand, what does it really mean to be a ETHNIC in today's Greece? How do they differ from their compatriots, Orthodox, atheists, agnostics and other religious people? The seemingly big difference is the worship of the Greek gods and that's how the wider Greek society sees us anyway. We are the "Dodecatheists". This characteristic alone SHOULD NOT BE SUFFICIENT to identify ethnic nationals. What is the ideological message they send to the Greek society? It is obvious that while the "product", the brand, Hellenism as a value system is unapproachable, that what great has been developed by the human intellect at least in the Western world, the Hellenic Movement has not managed to successfully channel it into its "market" Greek society.
As far as the recognition of ethnic Greeks in Greek society is concerned, the identity of the ethnic man as a virtuous person who consciously constitutes the ideal Citizen should be one of the obvious elements of the "brand", the brand of the Re-Hellenization Movement. The Greek national or Ethnic Greek should see himself/herself, and be seen, as an autonomous moral element that moves in a social space where values and ideals are under question and moral interest-based relativism is the dominant concept of life of the New Greeks. In his/her interpersonal or professional relationships, the Ethnic Greek national should behave as a virtuous person who follows his own moral code of conduct and in his dealings, with fellow Greeks and non-Greeks, he should be fair, honest, eloquent, understanding that everything he does it is reflected in the public face of the Movement since each one is its ambassador.
Because the indicated behavior is essentially a WAY OF LIFE, the Hellenic Movement should create educational mechanisms of LIFELONG learning with the aim of regular, interactive, not teaching but systematic STUDY of the virtues with specific training procedures, common or similar for all members of the Movement .
This QUALITATIVE difference, moral upgrade, I would say in the behavior of the Greek national, as a CITIZEN, FELLOW-CITIZEN and FELLOW HUMAN, is the "key" in the case of Re-Hellenization. The formation and formulation of an alternative POLITICAL PROPOSAL in Greek society, which expresses the Greek virtues and values in PUBLIC LIFE, is the second necessary Element for Re-Hellenization, which cannot exist without the first.
........................................................
To be a
Priest (ιεροφάντης) of the Religion of our ancestors, a basic characteristic is
a Virtuous Life in all its manifestations. It doesn't matter if you wear such
and such a ribbon or use such and such incense, or if you sing such and such a
Hymn beautifully, nor how many people you gather around you. Everyone's Home
and his pure soul is the best Temple. It is important to honor the precepts of
the ancestors, to be possessed by the Virtues of Courage, Bravery, Wisdom and
Honesty.
Slanders, lies, hypocrisy, arrogance, contempt
for other Priests or other people, lack of respect, do not make you a Priest,
much less a good person. In order to be a Priest, above all, through the
respect you give (if you give) to the Gods, you must also respect mankind. Only
then will we be able to pronounce the Holy words of
"Re-Hellenization". Re-Hellenization is not only bringing back the
Hellenic Ethnic Religion and its ceremonies, Re-Hellenization is the daily and
unceasing effort for a Virtuous Life that comes through the Education of our
Hellenic Ethnic Religion. Only then do you pay real honor to the Gods.
Το να είσαι Ιερέας (ιεροφάντης) της Θρησκείας των
προγόνων μας, βασικό χαρακτηριστικό είναι η Ενάρετη Ζωή σε όλες τις εκφάνσεις
της. Δεν έχει σημασία αν φοράς τάδε κορδέλα ή λιβανίζεις τάδε, ή τραγουδάς τον
τάδε Ύμνο όμορφα, ούτε πόσο κόσμο μαζεύεις γύρω σου. Το σπίτι του καθενός και η
αγνή ψυχή του είναι ο καλύτερος Ναός. Είναι σημαντικό να τιμούμε τις εντολές
των προγόνων, να διακατέχουμε τις αρετές του θάρρους, της γενναιότητας, της
σοφίας και της ειλικρίνειας.
Οι συκοφαντίες, τα
ψέματα, η υποκρισία, η αλαζονεία, η περιφρόνηση άλλων Ιερέων ή άλλων ανθρώπων,
η έλλειψη σεβασμού, δεν σε κάνουν Ιερέα, πολύ περισσότερο καλό άνθρωπο. Για να
είσαι Ιερέας, πάνω απ' όλα, μέσω του σεβασμού που δίνεις (αν δίνεις) στους
Θεούς, πρέπει να σέβεσαι και την ανθρωπότητα. Μόνο τότε θα μπορέσουμε να
προφέρουμε τα Ιερά λόγια του «Επανελληνισμού». Ο Επανελληνισμός δεν είναι μόνο
η επαναφορά της Ελληνικής Εθνικής Θρησκείας και των τελετών της, ο
Επανελληνισμός είναι η καθημερινή και αδιάκοπη προσπάθεια για μια Ενάρετη Ζωή
που έρχεται μέσα από την Εκπαίδευση της Ελληνικής μας Εθνικής Θρησκείας. Μόνο τότε αποδίδεις πραγματική τιμή
στους Θεούς.
* Our main goal is to make a
contribution so that we do not disappear or become extinct as a Hellenic people, so that
we may survive as a Hellenic people, with our Hellenic Ethnic Religion and

The Hellenic Republic and the Hellenic people are faced with a big
threat/danger, like many other small nations and people around the world. This
threat/danger is called globalization which is like a powerful river which does
not leave anything standing in its path. It sweeps away
identity, language, culture and traditions. This threat/danger is huge for Greece
because other nationalities from the bigger countries of the European Union
could settle with large numbers permanently in Greece and change the
racial/homogeneous fabric of the ‘Greek’ nation.
Greece is also in peril if
another ethnic group or country with a huge population which cannot be
assimilated e.g. such as when/if Turkey becomes a member of the E.U. Another
threat/danger for Greece is the large number of Muslim illegal immigrants
coming into the country every year.
Ύπουλες και σκοτεινές μέρες έχουμε μπροστά μας...
*** Πρέπει επίσης να λάβουμε σοβαρά υπόψη μας ότι με τις
νέες αναδυόμενες Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες της Ευρώπης με πολιτική αποδοχής πολλών
εκατοντάδων και χιλιάδων νόμιμων και παράνομων μεταναστών, όλες οι μικρές χώρες
αυτής της ομοσπονδίας θα αντιμετωπίσουν την απειλή απώλειας των εθνικών
εθνοτήτων την ταυτότητά τους, τις γλώσσες τους και τις εθνικές τους παραδόσεις.
Θα βρεθούν αντιμέτωποι με την προοπτική να χάσουν τον δικό τους εθνοτικό τρόπο
ζωής.
Με άλλα λόγια, εμείς οι Έλληνες μπορούμε ακόμη και να
γίνουμε μειοψηφία στη δική μας χώρα;;;
Ως εκ τούτου, η μεγάλη πρόκληση που έχουμε μπροστά μας
είναι να βρούμε έναν τρόπο επιβίωσης στη δική μας πατρίδα και σε αυτή την
ομοσπονδία ως Έλληνες, με τη δική μας ελληνική γλώσσα και τη δική μας ελληνική
ταυτότητα κλπ.
Η εναλλακτική λύση θα είναι ο θάνατος του ελληνισμού, το
τέλος της ύπαρξης του ελληνικού μας λαού, η ελληνική μας γλώσσα και η ελληνική
μας ταυτότητα ... από το πρόσωπο της γης.
* Είναι καθήκον μας, με σεβασμό και τιμή προς στους Θεούς
και στους προγόνους μας, ότι ποτέ δεν θα επιτρέψουμε αυτό να συμβεί!!!!
Cunning and dark days are coming...
*#*# We must also take
seriously into consideration that with the new emerging United States of Europe
with a policy of accepting many hundreds and thousands of legal and illegal
immigrants, all the small countries of this federation, will be faced with the
threat of losing their national ethnic identities, their languages and their
national traditions. They will be faced with the prospect of losing the own
ethnic way of life.
In other words, we Greeks might even become a minority in our own country?
Therefore the great challenge
before us will be to find a way to survive in our own motherland and in this
federation as Hellenes, with our own Hellenic language and our own Hellenic
identity etc.
The alternative will be the
death of Hellenism, the end of the existence of our Hellenic people, our
Hellenic language and our Hellenic identity...from the face of the earth.
*** It is our duty, with
respect and honour to our Gods and our ancestors that we will never allow this
to happen!!!
To see mixed marriages whereby for example a Russian marries a
German, a German marries an Albanian, an Albanian marries a Romanian etc. is a
positive scenario. In this way no other ethnic group or groups will pose a
threat to the Hellenic people, because these immigrants will become Hellenized
and assimilated very quickly from one generation to the next and the Hellenic
people will not become a minority in their own country. However if these people from these mixed marriages with a Greek person leave Greece and settle in another country, their off spring will most likely lose their Hellenic language and Hellenic identity.
In the diaspora mixed marriages may = the death of the Hellenic language and the disappearance, the extinction of the Hellenic people (the genocide of Hellenism).
Friends when we are talking
about mixed marriages, our intentions are not to vilify or attack those in a
mixed marriage situation, but rather to point out and debate sensibly the many
side-effects and negative aspects that these marriages may have on the survival
of Hellenism and us as a Hellenic people!
We need to have more love
and understanding of each other in the Hellenic communities of the Diaspora, so
that we may have an on-going dialogue to find out what is in the best interests
of our people!!!
All people strive for what
is in their best interests, we are no different!
To be proud of your
identity, to be proud of your people and to care about their well being and
survival is not an evil thing, but “Just, Honorable and Virtuous”.
We are all about love,
compassion, and understanding, not about demonizing those in mixed marriages!
We should
show love and affection to those that have married Hellenes. We should make
them feel welcome (inclusive) in our Hellenic community and accept them as one
of us.
It is
up to us, the Hellene in the marriage to demonstrate to our future partner that
we are committed to our Hellenism and to demonstrate in a mature and sensible
fashion how important it is for us that we maintain the covenant between the
Hellenic People and God (our Gods), that it is very important for us that our
children receive a Hellenic education, identity and culture so as they
too are able to participate and fulfill their promise made to the Gods by our
forefathers and ancestors and is binding throughout the ages for all Hellenes!
It is equally important to be honest and to mention that they will be expected to embrace Hellenism and to become a part of the Hellenic family.
It is important that the "aloethnikos" person contemplating in entering into a marriage contract with a Hellene, be aware of what is expected of them. Honesty in a marriage is the bond and bridge that binds a family together in a loving and caring relationship.

WILL THE
JEWISH PEOPLE IN THE DIASPORA CONTINUE TO GROW AND FLOURISH?
The Jewish
people have successfully differentiated themselves by having a religion which
they do not share with any other ethnic nationality. They are also totally dedicated and loyal to
their Jewish religion. They, most of the time marry other Jews, or when a
Jewish person marries a non-Jew, they never ever convert to the religion of the
non-Jew. They expect the non-Jewish person to convert to Judaism. They also
bring up their children with the Jewish religion. They make sure that their
children receive a Jewish education.
THIS IS THE
WAY THEY PROTECT THEMSELVES FROM ASSIMILATION THROUGH THE AGES, AND THEY ALWAYS
REMAIN JEWS AND THEIR POPULATION ALL OVER THE WORLD KEEPS ON GROWING.
Ο Εβραϊκός λαός έχει διαφοροποιηθεί επιτυχώς τον εαυτό
του από τους άλλους λαούς έχοντας μια θρησκεία που δεν μοιράζεται με καμία άλλη
εθνική εθνικότητα. Είναι επίσης απολύτως αφοσιωμένοι και στην εβραϊκή θρησκεία τους. Τις περισσότερες φορές παντρεύονται άλλους
Εβραίους ή όταν ένας εβραίος άνθρωπος παντρεύεται έναν/μία μη Εβραίο/α, ποτέ
δεν ασπάζονται τη θρησκεία των μη Εβραίων. Αναμένουν από το μη Εβραίο να
ασπαστεί τον Ιουδαϊσμό. Αναθρέφουν επίσης τα παιδιά τους με την εβραϊκή
θρησκεία. Εξασφαλίζουν πάντα ότι τα παιδιά τους λαμβάνουν εβραϊκή εκπαίδευση /
παιδεία.
Αυτός είναι ο τρόπος με τον οποίο προστατεύουν τον λαο
τους από την εξουδετέρωση μέσω των
αιώνων, και πάντοτε παραμένουν
Εβραίοι και ο πληθυσμός τους σε ολόκληρο
τον κόσμο πάντα αυξάνεται.
The Jews in the Diaspora almost always marry other Jews. They have large families, their population always growing and they are resilient, determined and committed to remain Jews from one generation to the next. They are always totally loyal and dedicated to their Jewish religion and to each other!
In Summary:
The Jewish
people have their own indigenous religion which they do not share with other ethnicity's
or nationalities.
Almost all
Jews always marry other Jews.
All Jewish
children receive a Jewish religious education.
In this way
they always remain Jews and Judaism never dies.
Συνοψίζοντας:
Οι Εβραίοι έχουν τη δική τους αυτόχθονη θρησκεία, την οποία δεν
μοιράζονται με άλλες εθνότητες ή εθνικότητες.
Σχεδόν όλοι οι Εβραίοι παντρεύονται πάντα με άλλους
Εβραίους.
Όλα τα εβραϊκά παιδιά λαμβάνουν εβραϊκή θρησκευτική
εκπαίδευση - παιδεία.
Με αυτόν τον τρόπο παραμένουν πάντα Εβραίοι και ο Ιουδαϊσμός δεν πεθαίνει ποτέ.

The Jewish religion is a religion with a specific people and a
homeland. With its teachings it promotes a loyalty and love of the homeland of
the Jewish people and a love for the Jewish people. 'Εχει την φιλοσοφία της
φιλοπατρίας και του λαού της.
The Hellenic Ethnic Religion is the religion of a specific
people, namely the Hellenic people. It is a religion with a specific homeland,
namely Hellas and it is loyal and promotes a love for the Hellenic homeland and
the Hellenic people. 'Εχει την φιλοσοφία της
φιλοπατρίας και την αγάπη για τον ελληνικό λαό.
However Islam and Christianity are stateless religions. They do
not have a sense of belonging to any specific homeland or to a particular
people. They are both "Universal religions". Δεν έχουν την φιλοσοφία της φιλοπατρίας και
την αγάπη για κάποιο συγκεκριμένο λαό ή πατρίδα.
.......................................................
.......................................................
Η εβραϊκή θρησκεία είναι μια
θρησκεία που είναι αφοσιωμενη σε ένα συγκεκριμένο λαό και πατρίδα. Μέσα στις
διδασκαλίες του προωθεί την αγάπη για την πατρίδα του Εβραϊκού λαού και την
αγάπη για τον Εβραϊκό λαό. «Εχει την φιλοσοφία της φιλοπατρίας και του λαού
της.
Η Ελληνική Εθνική Θρησκεία είναι
η θρησκεία συγκεκριμένων ανθρώπων, δηλαδή του Ελληνικού λαού. Και είναι
αφοσιωμενη στην Ελλάδα και τον Ελληνικό λαό. Είναι μια θρησκεία με μια
συγκεκριμένη πατρίδα, δηλαδή την Ελλάδα και προωθεί την αγάπη για την ελληνική
πατρίδα και τον ελληνικό λαό. «Εχει την φιλοσοφία της φιλοπατρίας και την αγάπη
για τον ελληνικό λαό.
Ωστόσο, το Ισλάμ και ο
Χριστιανισμός είναι θρησκείες απάτριδες. Δεν έχουν την αίσθηση ότι ανήκουν σε
μιά συγκεκριμένη πατρίδα ή σε έναν συγκεκριμένο λαό. Χωρίς πρόσβαση στην
φιλοσοφία της φιλοπατρίας και την εφαρμογή αυτού.

Η εβραϊκή θρησκεία είναι δομημένη για να βοηθά τον
εβραϊκό λαό να επιβιώνει πάντα ως ξεχωριστός εβραϊκός λαός σε όλο τον κόσμο.
The Jewish
religion is structured to assist the Jewish people to always survive as a
distinct Jewish people all over the world.
This is
something that Christianity is not structured to do for any ethnicity. In fact, its aims are the opposite!!
Αυτό είναι κάτι που ο Χριστιανισμός δεν είναι δομημένος
να κάνει για καμία εθνότητα. Στην πραγματικότητα οι στόχοι του είναι αντίθετοι!!
....................
QUESTION:
Friends, would you say that the Jewish religion is an ethno -
specific religion to the Jewish people......a very constructive and powerful
tool for the Jewish people?
Does it assist in the protection, the promotion, the maintenance
of the Jewish ethnicity, language, culture and identity?
Is Christianity a universal (ecumenical) religion, non-ethnic
specific to any nationality?
Is Islam a universal religion, non-ethnic specific to any nationality?
Is agnosticism non ethnic specific to all ethnicities and nationalities?
Is agnosticism non ethnic specific to all ethnicities and nationalities?
ANSWERS:
Of course Judaism is a national ethnic specific religion and has a clear role to do all of the above mentioned for the Jewish people.
The Christian ecumenicals must answer what is their role in these national, racial issues concerning ethnic and linguistic identity maintenance and survival etc. mentioned above.
The "atheists" are excluded because they simply express a denial of religion and do not give ethical answers to the issues referred to above; they are in a sterile state of denial. They, and their philosophy do not assist in anyway a nation of people to sustain themselves ethnically or linguistically with their own identity.
Theological interpretation and differences with the Abrahamic religions…
The Christians, Jews and Muslims use the term "we believe" in their theology as being the "absolute truth".
How can they know this, when the Jews invented their God and named him YAHWEH?...when they either plagiarized from others or invented everything in their holy book, the TORAH - OLD TESTAMENT ?
However in Hellenic theological terms "we believe" does not have the same meaning. When we say "we believe", it actually means, NOMIZOMEN. In other words after researching and understanding the Cosmos and all things in it and achieving our religious assessment, using our logic and common sense, our ancient philosphers said / say, "We Think" we believe this to be our universal truth.
Θεολογική ερμηνεύσει και διαφορές με της Αβρααμαϊκές θρησκείες ...
Οι Χριστιανοί, οι Εβραίοι και οι Μουσουλμάνοι χρησιμοποιούν τον όρο "πιστεύουμε" στη θεολογία τους ως την "απόλυτη αλήθεια".
Πώς μπορούν να το ξέρουν αυτό, όταν οι Εβραίοι επινόησαν τον Θεό τους και τον ονόμασαν YAHWEH - ΓΙΑΧΒΕ;;;;....όταν έκαναν λογοκλοπή από άλλους λαούς ή απλός επινόησαν τα υπόλοιπά στη βίβλο τους, το ΤΟΡΑ - ΠΑΛΑΙΑ ΔΙΑΘΗΚΗ ;;;
ΔΕΝ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΜΟΡΦΗ ΘΡΗΣΚΕΥΤΙΚΟΥ ΟΛΟΚΛΗΡΩΤΙΣΜΟΥ;;
Στις διδασκαλίες του Ισλάμ, το Κοράνι θεωρείται ως ο λόγος του θεού τους Αλλάχ, του ίδιου θεού των
Εβραίων και των Χριστιανών με διαφορετικό όνομα.
Ωστόσο, το Κοράνι τους ερμηνεύεται επίσης ως απεικόνιση
ενός συστήματος διακυβέρνησης, παρόμοιο με ένα σύνταγμα μιας χώρας. Ωστόσο,
στις ισλαμικές διδασκαλίες, οι Μουσουλμάνοι δεν πιστεύουν στην ύπαρξη του
«έθνους κράτους» χωρών ή εθνικών ταυτοτήτων. Δεν αναγνωρίζουν ούτε τα
συντάγματα των χωρών.
Πιστεύουν ότι το Κοράνι υπερισχύει αυτών των συνθηκών και
ότι το Κοράνι πρέπει να χρησιμοποιηθεί για να κυβερνά τον κόσμο, έναν κόσμο
χωρίς χώρες, χωρίς σύνορα, αλλά μόνο ένα «παγκόσμιο χαλιφάτο» υπό το Ισλάμ, υπό
τον κανόνα των διδασκαλιών και των νόμων του Κορανίου . Το Κοράνι δεν
αναγνωρίζει και δεν ενθαρρύνει την δημοκρατία,
δεν δέχεται το δημοκρατικό τρόπο διακυβέρνησης.
Η απόλυτη θεοκρατική δικτατορία της σύγχρονης εποχής μας
με σκληρούς και δρακόντερους νόμους.
Ωστόσο, το Κοράνι δεν εκφράζει τον λόγο του Θεού ή οποιουδήποτε Θεού.
Εκφράζει τον λόγο και τους νόμους που εφευρέθηκαν και δημιουργήθηκαν από
ανθρώπους.
Το Ισλάμ διδάσκει επίσης για ανταμοιβές στη μετέπειτα ζωή
για τους καλούς Μουσουλμάνους σε έναν υποτιθέμενο παράδεισο.Πώς μπορεί κανείς
να γνωρίζει το οτιδήποτε για τη μετά
θάνατον ζωή;
Αυτά είναι απλοί ισχυρισμοί και εικασίες και θεωρίες που
δεν μπορούν να αποδειχθούν.
*** Πώς γνωρίζουν οι Εβραίοι, οι Χριστιανοί και οι
Μουσουλμάνοι ποιος είναι ο λόγος του Θείου;
*** Δεν έχουν γραφτεί τα θρησκευτικά βιβλία τους από
ανθρώπους. Δεν εκφράζουν τότε τις απόψεις, τις ιδέες και τις εφευρέσεις αυτών
των ανθρώπων;
*** Ο χριστιανισμός για πολλές εκατοντάδες χρόνια ήταν
μια πολύ βάναυση και μισαλλόδοξη θρησκεία. Δεν επέτρεψε καμία πραγματική
ελευθερία έκφρασης ή σκέψης. Χωρίς ελευθερία λόγου. Όλα αυτά άλλαξαν όταν η
Ευρώπη γνώρισε τον «Διαφωτισμό και την Αναγέννηση» που ιδρύθηκε επάνω στον
αρχαίο αθηναϊκό πολιτισμό.
Το Ισλάμ
πραγματικά έχει πολύ μεγάλη
ανάγκη το δικό του «Διαφωτισμό» και «Αναγέννηση».

Did the
ancient Romans persecute the Christians?
If yes, WHY?

Οι αρχαίοι Ρωμαίοι κατάδιωκαν τους χριστιανούς;
Εάν ναι,

............................................................
IS THIS NOT
A FORM OF RELIGIOUS TOTALITARIANISM ?
In the
teachings of Islam, the Koran is considered the word of their god Allah, the
same god of the Jews and Christians with a different name.
However
their Koran is also interpreted as portraying a system of government, similar
to a constitution of a country. However in the Islamic teachings, Muslims do
not believe in the existence of the "nation state,” of countries or ethnic
identities. They do not recognize the constitutions of countries either. They
believe that the Koran super cedes these constitutions and that the Koran
should be used to rule the world, a world with no countries, no borders but
just one "worldwide caliphate" under Islam, under the rule of the
teachings and laws of the Koran. The Koran does not recognize nor does it
endorse democracy. The Koran opposes a democratic system of government.
The absolute theocratic dictatorship of our
modern times with harsh and draconian laws to live by!!
However the
Koran does not express the word of the Divine or any God either. It expresses
the words and the laws that have been invented and created by men. Islam also
teaches of the rewards in the afterlife for good Muslims in a supposed
paradise.
How can anyone know anything about the afterlife?
Again these are mere claims and speculations and theories that cannot be
proven.
*** How do
Jews, Christians and Muslims know what the word of the Divine is?
*** Have not
their religious books been written by human beings. Do they not then express
the views, the ideas and the inventions of these human beings?
***
Christianity for many hundreds of years was a very brutal and intolerant
religion. It did not allow any real freedom of expression or thought. No
freedom of speech. This all changed when Europe experienced its
"Enlightenment and Renaissance" which was founded on the ancient
Athenian civilization.
Islam truly
needs to have its own "Enlightenment" and "Renaissance".
...............................................
WILL THE HELLENIC PEOPLE IN THE DIASPORA DISAPPEAR AND BECOME EXTINCT?
Ο Εβραϊκός λαός κάνει μεγάλα βήματα και πρόοδο
επειδή έχουν γίνει σαν τους αρχαίους Έλληνες, ενώ εμείς οι Έλληνες παραμένουμε
στάσιμοι και αποτυχημένοι επειδή με τον Χριστιανισμό έχουμε γίνει σαν τους
αρχαίους Εβραίους.
The Jewish people are making great strides and progress because
they have become like the ancient Greeks, while we Greeks remain stagnant and
failures because with Christianity we have become like the ancient Jews.
All
minorities (except
for Jews) in the Diaspora, through mixed
marriages and lack of resilience, spine, commitment and determination dwindle
in population, disappear and become extinct from one generation to the next.
WHAT ARE WE HELLENES DOING TO SURVIVE AS A HELLENIC PEOPLE ?
It is
imperative for us Hellenes if we are to survive to differentiate ourselves from
all other nationalities in the world. The best way to achieve this goal is to
return back to our own indigenous " Hellenic Ethnic Religion" and
our own Hellenic civilization and culture - a Hellenic way of life. We need to
do this because Orthodox Christianity is shared by many nationalities and thus
creates the bridge to mixed marriages, assimilation and finally the extinction
of us as a Hellenic people.
However this
is not enough on its own. We must embrace our Hellenic religion with warmth and
love. We must become totally loyal and dedicated to our Hellenic religion. We
must never under any circumstances abandon our Hellenic religion; we must never
convert to another religion, even when a mixed marriage might take place.
We must do
all we can so that our children receive a Hellenic education, so that they may
learn everything about their own religion, history and Hellenic civilization -
culture.
In a marriage
we must be honest with our future partner if they happen to be a non - Hellene.
We must ascertain if they are first of all "philhellenes", that they
will be prepared to convert to Hellenism and to bring the children up as
Hellenes, learning to speak, read and write the Hellenic language and to
embrace the Hellenic religion.
THIS IS THE
ONLY WAY FOR US TO SURVIVE AS A HELLENIC PEOPLE!
Είναι απαραίτητο για εμάς τους Έλληνες αν θέλουμε να
επιβιώσουμε να διαφοροποιήσουμε τον
εαυτό μας από όλες τις άλλες εθνότητες του κόσμου. Ο καλύτερος τρόπος για να
επιτύχουμε αυτόν τον στόχο είναι να επιστρέψουμε στη δική μας "Ελληνική Εθνική Θρησκεία" και στον
δικό μας Ελληνικό πολιτισμό - ήθοι - έναν ελληνικό τρόπο ζωής.
Πρέπει να το κάνουμε αυτό επειδή ο Ορθόδοξος Χριστιανισμός μοιράζεται με πολλές ξένες εθνικότητες και έτσι δημιουργεί τη γέφυρα στους μικτούς γάμους, αφομοίωση και τέλος την εξαφάνιση μας ως ελληνικό λαό.
Επίσης η ελληνορθόδοξη χριστιανική θρησκεία υμνεί τον εβραϊκό λαό, τον τοποθετεί σε ψηλό βάθρο, ενώ ταυτόχρονα βάζει τους Έλληνες κάτω, κάνει τους Έλληνες να μοιάζουν με σκουπίδια.
Πρέπει να το κάνουμε αυτό επειδή ο Ορθόδοξος Χριστιανισμός μοιράζεται με πολλές ξένες εθνικότητες και έτσι δημιουργεί τη γέφυρα στους μικτούς γάμους, αφομοίωση και τέλος την εξαφάνιση μας ως ελληνικό λαό.

Ωστόσο, αυτό δεν αρκεί από μόνη του. Πρέπει να
αγκαλιάσουμε την ελληνική μας θρησκεία με ζεστασιά και αγάπη. Πρέπει να γίνουμε
απόλυτα πιστοί και αφοσιωμένοι στην ελληνική μας θρησκεία. Δεν πρέπει σε καμία
περίπτωση να εγκαταλείψουμε την ελληνική μας θρησκεία: δεν πρέπει ποτέ να
ασπαστούμε μια άλλη θρησκεία, ακόμη και όταν πρώκειται να γίνει ένας μικτός γάμος.
Πρέπει να κάνουμε ό, τι μπορούμε για να λάβουν τα παιδιά
μας Ελληνική Παιδεία, ώστε να μπορούν να
μάθουν τα πάντα για τη δική τους θρησκεία, ιστορία και τον Ελληνικό πολιτισμό!
Σε έναν γάμο πρέπει να είμαστε ειλικρινείς με τον
μελλοντικό μας σύντροφο, ιδιαίτερα αν τυχαίνει να είναι μη 'Ελλην. Πρέπει να
βεβαιωθούμε εάν είναι καταρχήν «φιλέλληνες», ότι θα είναι διατεθειμένοι να
ασπαστούν τον Ελληνισμό και να
αναθρέψουν τα παιδιά τους ως Έλληνες,
μαθαίνοντας τα να μιλούν, να διαβάζουν και να γράφουν την ελληνική γλώσσα και
να αγκαλιάσουν την Ελληνική Θρησκεία.
ΑΥΤΟΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ Ο ΜΟΝΟΣ ΤΡΟΠΟΣ ΓΙΑ ΝΑ ΕΠΙΒΙΩΣΟΥΜΕ ΩΣ ΕΛΛΗΝΕΣ!
In Summary:
We Hellenes
must re-discover and adopt our own indigenous Hellenic National Religion which we
do not share with other ethnicities or nationalities.
Try to
always marry other Hellenes of the Hellenic National Religion.
Make sure
our children receive a Hellenic religious education and paideia.
In this we will
always remain Hellenes and Hellenism will never die.
Συνοψίζοντας:
Εμείς οι Έλληνες πρέπει να ανακαλύψουμε και να
υιοθετήσουμε τη δική μας αυτόχθονη Ελληνική Εθνική Θρησκεία που δεν
μοιραζόμαστε με άλλες εθνότητες ή εθνικότητες.
Να κάνουμε την
προσπαθεια πάντα να παντρεύομασται άλλους Έλληνες της Ελληνικής Εθνικής
Θρησκείας.
Να βεβαιωθούμε ότι
τα παιδιά μας θα λαμβάνουν ελληνική θρησκευτική εκπαίδευση και παιδεία.
'Ετσι με αυτόν το
τρόπο θα παραμείνουμε πάντα Έλληνες και ο Ελληνισμός δεν θα πεθάνει ποτέ.
Ω πολύ-πολιτισμός(αυτή η πολιτική)
συμφέρει τους 'Ελληνες της διασποράς (που μένουν μόνιμα στο εξωτερικό). Αλλά
αυτή η πολιτική του πολύ-πολιτισμού μέσα στην 'Ελλάδα, δεν συμφέρει την Ελλάδα!
Μέσα
στην Ελλάδα θα ήτο καλό όλοι η μετανάστες να αφομοιωθούν και να ελληνοποιηθούν
πλήρως.
A policy of multiculturalism
is good for the Hellenic people of the Diaspora! However this policy is not
good for the Hellenic Republic. In Greece it would be beneficial for Greece to
assimilate and to Hellenize completely all the countries immigrants and
minorities.
Αυτό
που ξέρω πολύ καλά είναι, ότι αν δεν αφομοιώσουμε τους μετανάστες θα
καταντήσουμε μειονότητα μέσα στην ίδια πατρίδα μας και θα τα χάσουμε όλα!
We are a small nation, with
a very small population and if we become a minority in our own mother country,
we will lose everything!
Είμαστε
ένα μικρό έθνος, με πολύ μικρό πληθυσμό και αν γίνουμε μειονότητα στη μητέρα
πατρίδα μας, θα
χάσουμε τα πάντα!
However if we wish to have a
greater protection and success in surviving as a Hellenic people it will be
necessary to differentiate ourselves from other ethnicities and people with our
own religion, which will promote Hellenic civilization, identity, language,
culture and traditions so that when mixed marriages with Greeks take place, the
non-Greek to become totally assimilated with Hellenism. Within a Hellenic
National Religion & Honour everyone will learn about the forefathers of
the Hellenic people and not about the forefathers of a foreign nation and its
people. They will learn about the history and civilization of the Hellenic
people and thus be able to adopt a Hellenic consciousness, Hellenic pride and a
love for the Hellenic Republic and its people.
The threat/danger from
assimilation and extinction is enormous for the Hellenic people of the
Diaspora. This powerful river of forced assimilation truly does not leave
anything standing in its path. The greatest threat to Hellenic survival in the
Diaspora is that of mixed marriages. The “Greek” orthodox Christian religion
and Church cannot protect the Hellenic people from mixed marriages, nor can it
protect and preserve Hellenic identity etc. in mixed marriages. Because we
share this Christian religion with many other countries and people, this same
Christianity opens the door and creates bridges that promote mixed marriages and
the extinction (disappearance) of the Hellenic people.
The
Hellenic children who are brought up with a “Hellenic orthodox Christian
religious education” in time when they grow up and mature become delusional and
disappointed and distance themselves from this religion (Hebrew-Jewish religion) when they realize that this religion never taught them
anything about their own ancestors, their forefathers and nothing about their
own Hellenic civilization, but instead taught them the history, tradition and
the civilization of a foreign people and country. In other words this orthodox
Christian religion promoted and taught them about the heroes of another country
and its people. This foreign religion never taught them, never promoted to them
their own Hellenic heroes, never taught them about their own Hellenic Fathers
of the Hellenic Nation. In no way did this religion ever make them feel a sense
of pride about their own Hellenic identity, nor did this religion ever help
them to achieve their own Hellenic consciousness, strength and security.
(Christianity teaches our children the religion and the history of the ancient Jewish people, and what they made up for themselves, in order to create an identity and meaning for themselves as a people).
(Christianity teaches our children the religion and the history of the ancient Jewish people, and what they made up for themselves, in order to create an identity and meaning for themselves as a people).
The Greek Orthodox Christian religion praises the Jewish people, it places them on a high pedestal, while at the same time it puts Greeks down, it makes Greeks to look like rubbish.
This is why it is
important and necessary for our Hellenic people in the Diaspora to religiously
differentiate ourselves from other ethnicity's and nationalities with our own
religion i.e. Hellenic Ethnic Religion and Honour which will better protect and
promote Hellenism. A movement such as this which will be ethno-specific
to our needs as Hellenes, with the good and decent meaning of this expression, and which
will protect and promote the Hellenic identity, civilization, language, history
and culture. A movement which will be embodied with a beautiful sweet Hellenic
religious definition, which will assist our Hellenic people of the Diaspora to survive
as a PEOPLE with our own identity, language and culture. An ideological
foundation of this nature is absolutely necessary for our Hellenic people of
the Diaspora if we want to survive, if we do not want to disappear and become
extinct and if we want to take back all that is spiritually and historically
ours.
Many
Hellenes realize that our differences, our diversity, racially, ethnically and
linguistically is a gift from the Divine, that it is our duty to protect and to
maintain this important diversity find themselves questioning and challenged as
to how best to participate and to contribute in this divine duty. They realize
that it is the divine duty of each ethnicity to maintain their very own
language and identity.
In
this quest they question their religion if they are Christians, to see if this
assists them or indeed is an obstacle.
When
they read the Old Testament and discover that the Christian God in the story of
the Tower of Babel punishes the people by supposedly imposing on them different
languages so that they cannot communicate with each other so that they cannot
finish this tower, they come to the realization that Christianity poses a huge
obstacle.
They
also realize that Christianity is not ethno - specific to these needs of any
people or ethnicity, but rather Christianity plays a universal religious role
only, that its message is only to be supposedly saved through Jesus Christ from a
supposed SIN and through Jesus to be rewarded with an ever lasting life in the after life. It promises things in reality it knows it cannot deliver. It blatanly tells lies to people in oder for them to become followers of a dead mortal man named Jesus, to be exploited by this religion, its clergy and its Church.
It therefore does not participate nor is it interested in the duty of maintaining the Divines sacred diversity.
It therefore does not participate nor is it interested in the duty of maintaining the Divines sacred diversity.
With
further study they learn that in the Hellenic Ethnic Religion this is a very
important sense of duty to the Divine and is at the core of our Hellenic
Religion.
We love the Hellenic National (ETHNIC) Religion and Honor
The only way for us as a Hellenic People to become truly independent is to return to our very own Hellenic National Religion and to become economically independent so that we never need to depend on other people, on any other ethnicities and nationalities. To achieve this aim we must be united, we must always support and assist each other at all times throughout the world wherever we may reside.

HATRED
IS DESTRUCTIVE
When you hate everyone and everything……
You end up destroying yourself!
When you hate everyone and everything……
You end up destroying yourself!
Εάν εμείς οι Έλληνες σε όλο τον κόσμο δεν λάβουμε σοβαρά υπόψη μας το θέμα του χαμηλού ποσοστό γεννήσεων και δεν κάνουμε πολλά παιδιά όπως κάνουν οι Χασσιδικοί Εβραίοι και οι Μουσουλμάνοι, σύντομα θα εξαφανιστούμε ως φυλή, ως Ελληνικός λαός.
If we
Greeks around the world do not take seriously the issue of our low birth rate
and do not have many children as the Hassidic Jews and the Muslims do, we will
soon disappear as a race, as a Hellenic people.
Συμβουλεύουμε όλους τους Έλληνες να μην γίνουν ποτέ
Τέκτονες - Μασόνοι !!
Δεν πρέπει ποτέ να βρεθείτε σε θέση, σύμφωνα με την οποία
οι απόψεις σας θα εξεταστούν και θα ελεγχθούν από άλλους και είσος να σας
ζητηθεί να υπονομεύσετε τις ελληνικές αρχές και αξίες σας. Είναι επίσης πολύ
σημαντικό ως Ελληνες να διατηρηθεί η ανεξάρτητη κυριαρχία του ατόμου.
We advise all Hellenes to never become Freemasons.
You should never put yourself in a position whereby your views will be scrutinized and vetted by others and whereby you may be required to compromise your Hellenic principles and values, also as a Hellene, it is very important to maintain one's individual independent sovereignty.
The communist trade unions, the corruption of politicians and a significant portion of the Greek people and the Church are the three major obstacles to the progress of Greece and the Greek people !!
*** In the
Hellenic tradition having a "work hard ethic - attitude" is and has
always been very important, but having a "clever work ethic -
attitude" is considered even more important, provided it is carried out
with zero tolerance for corruption and we allow ourselves to be guided with the
highest values of virtue.
In the Greek tradition, if we respect and appreciate ourselves
we will never think of doing harm to our fellow man.
If in case we harm someone unwittingly or intentionally, first
we must admit and understand our mistake, to feel true remorse, so as to be
able to transform ourselves into a better and superior form of human person...
"When we commit a breach or an injustice against others,
the only way to atone for our injustice is first of all to apologize to those
who we have wronged and to seek their forgiveness, also we must compensate
those who we have wronged".
Secondly we must give our oath to the gods that we will never
commit these violations towards others, we will never repeat this injustice or
commit other offenses against anyone.
Then, to be able to repair any damage that our actions may have
caused, we must seek to become better people ourselves, better individuals and
human beings, and to strive for perfection and virtue in our daily lives.
To do good deeds in our society and community for the good of
others.
To become good philanthropists in a way that will benefit
everyone in society and our community especially to those who need the most
help.
We are not born perfect, but we have a sacred duty to seek
perfection and virtue.
{When one is baptized, when they are just a few months old does not imply the free will of that person, but rather the opposite, the free will of that person has been abrogated!!!
It is only correct and right for that person when they have grown up and matured to be able to make a free choice based on their personal convictions and conscience to make the decision whether they wish to stay with the religion and traditions others chose for them or to make a change!
It is a very serious decision to make and one does not do so lightly.
In doing so you question your conscience and the principles and values that are important to you and your reason for being in this world and the direction you wish to take. Many other values also come on board and are considered.
One needs to use their own free will and judgment to return to the authentic religion and traditions of their own ancestors!
We are very proud and happy with our decision. Many people just do not have the strength to search and research what they are actually brought up to believe!
Let alone to find the courage and strength to make a change, based on their convictions principles, values and desires!!
Only when we exercise our own free will, can we be considered truly a free person!}
...........................................................
NO MORE SUPERSTITIOUS TRADITIONS FOR OUR HELLENIC PEOPLE...
My dear Hellenic people, for how long are you going to continue
to allow yourself to be influenced by a foreign religion which was forced onto
your ancestors by the foreign occupiers of Greece with violence, torture and
the death of millions of Greeks and Hellenized people in the ancient Roman
empire.
How long are you going to undermine your self respect and
dignity by bowing your head, kneeling and kissing idolatry icons of a dead Jewish man
named Jesus and his dead Jewish mother. How long are going to be grovelling to
them and begging them to intervene with miracles in your life, instead of you
facing the challenges of life with courage, bravery and logic.
Do you really believe that your
Jewish invented god and these people can perform miracles for you from the
grave ?
You are living around the world
in Western countries that by and large have a very good welfare system. You are
employed and earn a reasonable salary. You have access to a Universal health
system, even if you do not, you still have access to a good doctor.
With the touch of a switch you
have light in your home, with the touch of a tap you have access to clean hot
and cold water, with the flicker of a switch you have instant heat in your home
and your refrigerator is full of healthy food and fruit.
Do you really believe that your
god and these other dead people from the grave can and will involve themselves
with you, you who has everything and perform a miracle in your favour and
ignore the millions of people around the world who suffer from the most
horrible diseases and sicknesses, who have no clothes to wear, no food to eat
or clean water to drink ?
Do you really believe in this
nonsense, do you really believe in these superstitions and lies ?
In the indigenous Hellenic Ethnic
Religion we do not believe in miracles. Our Gods do not interfere in the lives
of us mere mortals with orders, commands and miracles as they have bequeathed us with a brain (our nous) to be
able to take care of ourselves. The Gods just maintain the good order and
harmony of the Universe.
The Gods do not want us to beg to
them. They do not have a need nor do they want us to bow or to kneel to them. They
want mankind to be proud and to have self respect and dignity. They want
mankind to face their every day problems and challenges with courage, with dignity, bravery
and common sense and logic.
In the Hellenic tradition, we do
not bow or kneel to Gods, Kings, Queens, Presidents or prime ministers.
.........................................................
*** The only
time we bow or kneel is next to the graves of our ancestors ... to honor them
and to express our gratitude for the sacrifices they have made for us and our
common homeland....πατρίδα.
.........................................................
*** Our Hellenic religion is about VIRTUE. It is virtuous to love and respect your family etc. It is also virtuous to love, to be loyal to your homeland and to defend it, no matter what.
We love and
worship our Gods. They do not demand
anything from us. They do not give us orders and commands. Therefor there is no reason or desire on their part to punish us as the God of the Jews and Christian does. However they expect us to live a life always aiming to reach
the highest level of virtue. To resemble them who are perfect to the best of our ability. Therefore to live a life of virtue, honour and dignity. That is what
our Hellenic religion is about. It is a way of living a life with a Hellenic "Value" system.
There is for
us no competition between our Gods and our homeland, as the Gods expect us to
defend our homeland. If we do not defend our homeland, then we are not living a
life of virtue.
If we do not
live a life of virtue, if we do not defend our homeland above everything else,
then we are not living up to the standards expected of us by our Gods.
The Hellenic
religion teaches us how to live our lives, to take control of our lives, to be
responsible for our lives. How to respond and handle the many challengers and
difficulties in our lives... always with logic, virtue, dignity and honour.
The gods are
omnipotent beings that are concerned with the order of the universe they are
not police officers to deal with our daily affairs which are, if one considers
the size and extent of the universe, quite frankly insignificant. Of course if one reads our Hellenic Mythology
one will at first glance get another picture because there the gods are ever
present in the world of mortals but that is for reasons of moral and ethical teachings.
One might say that divine
intervention is part of our Hellenic tradition, but only under one condition: Man
does what is right for him ... This principle is condensed into the well-known
proverbial saying, look to the Goddess ATHENA but move your hands also !! That
is to say, with the call for help to Athena - and to the gods in general -
"take action with your hands", do what you can do and must do, with the powers already given to you by the gods. Take responsibility for your own life.
Christianity
and Islam have ZERO tolerance for other religions. Christians and Muslims have
ZERO tolerance for other peoples of other religions.
It is a
known historical fact that in the last two thousand years they have butchered
millions of people around the world and imposed their religions on to them.
This is true
in the last 1400 years with Islam in the Middles East and northern Africa.
It is also
very evident in Europe after the middle of the 4th century A.D. and also in Africa and
the Americas in the last 400 years by what the Christians did.
The love the
Christians claim to have and exert is just a false smokescreen. These facts and
actions speak for themselves !!
HELLENIC ETHNIC RELIGION and HONOR
The Hellenic Ethnic Religion defines our national identity over
and above any other element!!
[Our identity is meaningful only through religious terms;
otherwise we become a constellation of faded memories. The national-ethnic-
culture, historical memory, are not enough for our survival. The crucial
question is what requirements have the Gods from us the Hellenic people.
The will and advice of the immortal Gods is for us a moral
compass. Without it we cannot safely navigate the journey of time. If we forget
even for one second that we belong exclusively and integrally to our Gods, we
will be devoured by others and we will be assimilated by other nations and
people around us.
A secular identity, based on language and culture, can sustain a
Greek population for possibly 3 to 4 generations. After this assimilation of
the Greek population by the “Ambient linguistic and racial majorities “takes
place, and we disappear forever from history. That's why groups and movements
based on ethnicity and restrictive culture alone disappear over time.
Unlike other nations, (except for the Jews) we Greeks
define our identity vertically in relation to the gods. The vertical
self-definition includes all the highest Greek values, the virtues of:
eternity, destiny, diversity, uniqueness, exclusivity, continuity.
Horizontal self-identification used by other peoples, usually made
up of the geographical homeland and a common culture, cannot on its’ own
determine and sustain a people.
If the Hellenic people adopt the self-determination horizontal
approach of other nations, we will disappear from history and we will begin to
suffer from the syndrome of insecurity, lack of national pride, and low
self-esteem.
The Hellenic Ethnic Religion reveals to the faithful the
uniqueness of our “Native Gods”. Forged exclusivity in relation to the Gods and
the Hellenic people. It blesses the differences of Hellenes and (alloethnis)
non-Greeks. Without these pillars it is not worth talking about Greek identity.
The huge difference in other peoples lies not only in the Greek
genetic material, but mostly in the Hellenic Religion. This makes us Hellenes
different from other peoples, and protects us from the curse of assimilation.
If we did not belong to our “Native Gods”, we would be one common
people with the alloethnis (non-Greeks). Our big difference is not guaranteed
so much by what we are, but in what we are called on by the Gods to be!]
The
uniqueness of the Hellenic people and Religion is the Holy Canon of History.
The Gods do not recognize any other Religion, other than the Hellenic Religion.
The Greeks do not recognize any other Gods than the Immortal Gods of the
Hellenic Pantheon. The Greeks are a unique people chosen by the Gods to create
a high level of civilization for the benefit of all people. The Cosmos and the
World belongs to the Gods and the Gods handed over to the Greeks a great responsibility.
Η μοναδικότητα του ελληνικού λαού και της θρησκείας είναι
ο Ιερός Κανόνας της Ιστορίας. Οι Θεοί δεν αναγνωρίζουν καμία άλλη θρησκεία,
εκτός της Ελληνικής Θρησκείας. Οι Έλληνες δεν αναγνωρίζουν άλλους Θεούς εκτός
από τους Αθάνατους Θεούς του Ελληνικού Πάνθεον. Οι Έλληνες είναι ένας μοναδικός
λαός που επέλεξαν οι Θεοί για να δημιουργήσουν ένα υψηλό επίπεδο πολιτισμού
προς όφελος όλων των ανθρώπων. Ο Κόσμος
ανήκει στους Θεούς και οι Θεοί παρέδωσαν στους Έλληνες μια μεγάλη
ευθύνη.
The Jewish people discovered and have put into practice very
successfully what we express here. That is why they are never assimilated and
never disappear from one generation to the next. They, through their national religion and
their relationship with their God (their God Yahweh), remain loyal to one
another and to their group-identity-nationality! Therefore, their population
around the world is always on the increase!!
{ In fact we
admire enormously the Jewish people for the way they protect and preserve their
identity, language, culture, traditions and their own religion!!
At least they
do not have a foreign religion which was imposed on them by foreign occupiers
like we do!!
Yes with mixed
marriages where one of the partners is Jewish, definitely the Jewish culture
and identity is the one that the children will follow.
This shows loyalty, commitment, dedication and determination from the Jewish side.
Jewish people understand who they are, what they are and where they are going; they are committed to their cause as Jews!!!
We Greeks at this point of time in comparison are like lost sheep in the wilderness!! It is in our power to change this situation now, all that is required of us is will power and an honest appraisal and understanding of who we really are and what we are all about as a Hellenic people!! }

For us Hellenes, our wealth, our inheritance is found/secured in
the will and testament of our ancient forefathers i.e., what I would term the “ELLINIKI
KAINI DIATHIKI” ‘Ελληνική Καινή Διαθήκη’ (Hellenic National
Code), is our very own testament which is the common wealth of the Hellenic
people. ELLINIKI KAINI DIATHIKI of the Hellenic National Religion and Honour =
the history of the Hellenic people, all the Hellenic writings of our ancient
Greek philosophers (Fathers of the Hellenic Nation), the ancient
Hellenic religion welded together with a modern religious interpretation and
understanding, make up the KAINI DIATHIKI TON ELLINON ‘Καινή Διαθήκη των
Ελλήνων’.
SYMBOLS
GOLDEN
ANCIENT HELLENIC SUN STAR =
*Symbol of the Hellenic Ethnic Religion & Honour.
*Symbol of loyalty and dedication to Hellas and its people.
*Symbol of Hellenic identity.
*Symbol of Hellenic unity.
*Symbol of the united Greek nations re-birth.
HELLENISM =
*Dedication to the Hellenic Ethnic Religion & Honor.
*Love and dedication to our mother country Hellas.
*Love and dedication to the Hellenic nation.
*Love and dedication to the Hellenic civilization, language, identity and

ANCIENT GREEK GOLDEN SUN STAR is a symbol that was used by the Ancient Greeks.
Although the Sun Star is a Greek symbol, it became famous because of the
ancient Greek Macedonians, who used it as a symbol of the royal dynasty of the
ancient Greek speaking Kingdom of Macedonia - (City State of Macedonia).
The Greek historical file gives one all the information and images that show
the history and significance of
this important symbol in Ancient Greece.
The typical Sun Star consists of 16 points (rays). We also see it with 12 or
even 8-rays of the sun. The sun with sixteen rays (or points – tips) represents
the following: the 4 rays represent the 4 elements, LAND - SEA - FIRE - AIR and
the other 12 rays represent the 12 Gods of Olympus.
(Missing are the names which explain the 16 rays.)
The Sun Star represents the symbol of virginity (purity). So usually we see
this ancient Greek symbol, for the virgin goddess Athena. But in several other
cases, it can identify with Apollo.
The Sun Star became a common symbol of ancient Greece and it is found on coins,
pottery, paintings and statues, long before the Macedonia kingdom and the
dynasty of Argos.
Sixteen pointed tip - Suns are often presented in Macedonian and other
Hellenistic coins and shields of antiquity. There are also a number of
illustrations of Athenian soldiers carrying an identical sixteen pointed star
symbol on their armor, from the 6th century, and coins from the islands to
mainland Greece, as in Corfu, findings 5th BC century at Lokrida, and 4th BC
century.
After the union of the Greeks under the leadership of Alexander the Great, the
Sun Star became the main symbol of the united Greek nations...re-birth
(ethnogennesis).
Greek HISTORY gives one all
the information and images that show the history and significance of this important symbol in
Ancient Greece.
The Jewish religion is not
only a religion but a Jewish national ideology (nationalism), a national
movement to help the Jewish people survive and to help them to achieve their
aspirations and goals as a nation and people.
THE JEWISH TORAH = THE OLD
TESTAMENT = JEWISH RELIGION AND NATIONAL IDEOLOGY
Are all religions a series of man - made, man- created,
hypothetical assumptions and theories?
Are all religions a creation of man?
Are all religions a creation of man?
Judaio-Christianity is
founded on blind and sterile DOGMA.
Hellenism is
founded on logic, free thinking...to question all things and to research
everything!!
Judaio-Christianity
and Hellenism are therefore diametrical opposites.
The
two are not compatible with one another!!
It is paramount for us Hellenes
to once again bring back our own religion to life. The religion which was born
from our own spiritual awakening, experience and birth which will once again
…………
*promote the Hellenic
civilization.
*which will protect and
preserve Hellenism.
*which will promote Hellenic
education, which will protect & promote Hellenic principals,
values and traditions.
*which will enable the Hellenic
people no matter where they live to feel a sense of pride and dignity about
their identity and ancestry.
*which will encourage the
Hellenic people to do good deeds for their fellow human beings, to do good for
society in general.
WE HELLENES
Are a proud people and we have our own religion, the Hellenic
National Religion Honour.
NATIONAL, because it is the indigenous religion of our country and its
people as it was born from the spiritual awakening of our forefathers and
ancestors.
Our religion is the continuation of our ancient Hellenic religion
which is founded on the 12 Gods of Olympus and all the Gods of the
Hellenic Pantheon.
HONOUR, because
we honour, pay tribute and respect to our Gods, and we also pay tribute and
respect to our forefathers and ancestors.
Our ancient philosophers are
the spiritual Fathers of the Hellenic people. All their theological -
philosophical writings form the basis of our holy scriptures and are thus our
HOLY BIBLE.
The Gods of
the Greeks are Divine Entities of the Universe. They are natural divine forces
and entities! Our Gods are existence itself.
Our Gods are the laws that govern and control everything, nature and
existence, the Universe - the Cosmos. They are the Divine Entities that define
and control everything on our planet, in the solar system, in the universe and
all the universes that exist (The Cosmos).
The Gods are above us, below us, around us and
within us. They are the gigantic spiritual energy and power which
controls everything on our planet, our solar system, our universe and all the
universes that exist in "The Cosmos".
Our Gods are a multitude of
apportioned immortal beings, self-energizing and self-sufficient "forces", that inhibit this "Unity" that gave birth to
itself. They are the multitude expressions of this Unity that give substance and
order to the Cosmos and keep it interconnected and harmonious.
....................................................
There is a
school of thought among some ancient Greek theologians that the Gods because
they are Divine, they have the power to transform themselves into whatever they
wish...and to appear to us for example as human beings etc.
Υπάρχει μια σχολή σκέψης μεταξύ μερικών αρχαίων Ελλήνων θεολόγων ότι οι Θεοί επειδή είναι Θεϊκοί, έχουν τη δύναμη να μεταμορφώνονται σε ό,τι θέλουν...και να φανούν σε μας για παράδειγμα ως άνθρωποι κ.λπ.
....................................................
ΕΝΩΣΗ ΕΛΛΗΝΩΝ ΕΘΝΙΚΩΝ
ΟΙ ΘΕΟΙ
Οι Θεοί έχουν αναδυθεί
από το όλο Ον με απλή πλήθυνση του εαυτού του σε επιμέρους οντότητες, γι’ αυτό
και διατηρούν όλες του τις ιδιότητες, δηλαδή αθανασία, απεραντοσύνη και γνώση.
Έργο των Θεών είναι η εγκαθίδρυση και διατήρηση της συνοχής και ευταξίας του
εκάστοτε «Κόσμου».
Οι αληθινοί, φυσικοί
Θεοί είναι λοιπόν τέλεια και ταξιθετικά όντα που κατέχουν την αθανασία και την
γνώση και διαποτίζουν απρόσκοπτα όλον τον κόσμο, επιδρώντας επάνω του.
Υποκείμενοι στη νομοτέλεια του κόσμου και πιστά υπηρετούντες τους νόμους του,
οι Θεοί συμμετέχουν στην αειγενεσία, δηλαδή στην συνεχή σύνθεση και αποσύνθεση
των μορφών.
Ως προς την φύση τους,
οι αληθινοί, φυσικοί Θεοί είναι τέλειοι, αγαθοί, αθάνατοι, αμετάβλητοι,
άπειροι, δίκαιοι, πάνσοφοι, αιώνιοι, απρόσωποι, άνευ γένους, συνεκτικοί,
αιθέριοι στην ύλη τους και ικανοί να διαπερνούν την υπόλοιπη ύλη.
Αυτονόητο είναι ότι
αυτοί οι πραγματικοί, φυσικοί Θεοί, δεν «αποσύρονται», δεν «συνενώνονται σε ένα
πρόσωπο», δεν «αντικαθίστανται», δεν «παύουν να υπάρχουν», ούτε και «νικώνται»,
σύμφωνα με τις ορέξεις ή τις προσδοκίες ασεβών θνητών ή οργανωμένων συστημάτων
ασεβείας.
Οι Θεοί είναι Καθολικές
Θεϊκές Θεότητες και δυνάμεις.
*** Καθώς δεν υπάρχει
τρόπος να εμφανιστεί η πραγματική μορφή των Θεών σε μορφή εικόνας ή με οποιονδήποτε
άλλο τρόπο (οι Θεοί είναι αόρατοι κ.λπ.), οι αρχαίοι επέλεξαν να
χρησιμοποιήσουν την ανθρώπινη μορφή καθώς είναι το μόνο ζωντανό ον που διαθέτει
αληθινή ομορφιά και ευφυΐα ως η καλύτερη λύση για να βοηθήσει τους ανθρώπους να
κατανοήσουν καλύτερα τους Θεούς. Για παράδειγμα, η ομορφιά που εκφράζεται στα
αγάλματα δηλώνει την τελειότητα των Θεών.
Οι μορφές (αγάλματα) των Θεών χρησιμοποιούνται για να συμβολίσουν τις πολλές έννοιες που αποδίδονται στους Θεούς. Αυτά έχουν εκφραστεί στα γραπτά των αρχαίων Ελλήνων φιλοσόφων και θεολόγων μας.
...........................................................
UNION OF ETHNIC HELLENES
THE GODS
The Gods have emerged from the whole Being with a simple
plurality of themselves into individual entities, which is why they retain all
of its attributes, namely immortality, vastness and knowledge. The work of the
Gods is the establishment and maintenance of the cohesion and order of each
"World in the Universe".
The true, natural Gods are therefore perfect and class beings that
possess immortality and knowledge and seamlessly permeate the whole world,
influencing it. Subject to the law of the world and faithfully serving its
laws, the Gods participate in the perpetuation, that is, in the continuous
synthesis and decomposition of forms.
In their nature, the true, natural Gods are perfect, good,
immortal, unchangeable, άπειροι, just, omniscient, eternal, impersonal,
genderless, cohesive, ethereal in matter and capable of permeating the rest of
matter.
It goes without saying that these real, natural Gods do not
"withdraw", do not "unite in one person", do not
"replace", do not "cease to exist", nor are
"defeated", according to the appetites or expectations of ungodly
mortals or organized systems of disrespect.
The Gods are Universal Divine Deities and powers.
*** As there is no way to display the actual form of the Gods in
picture form or in any other way (the Gods are invisible etc.), the ancients
chose to use the human form as it is the only living being possessing true beauty
and intelligence as the best solution to help the people to better understand
the Gods. For example the beauty expressed in the statues designates the
perfection of the Gods.
The forms (statues) of the Gods are used to symbolize the many
meanings that are attributed to the Gods. These have been expressed in the
writings of our ancient Hellenic philosophers and theologians.
..................................
We do not believe in the
"Big Bang Theory".
In our
Hellenic Ethnic Religion mythology is used for ethical teachings. However the
myths need to be decoded to be understood.
Also the
statues of the Gods are used as symbols for these ethical teachings. Therefore
the Gods do have not human form; they do not have sexual organs etc.
In the
Olympian Pantheon we have 12 Gods, i.e. six male and six female Gods. This is
used to symbolize that in order for the Universe to have equilibrium and harmony
there must be a balance. As the Universe i.e. the Gods are a living "Ontos
On". When we say that the Gods are in a state of "Eros", this
means that the female and male elements come together to further produce the
needs of the Universe.
In reality there
are many Gods, as many as are needed for the order of the Universe.
Στην Ελληνική μας Εθνική Θρησκεία η
μυθολογία χρησιμοποιείται για ηθικές διδασκαλίες. Ωστόσο, οι μύθοι πρέπει να
αποκωδικοποιηθούν για να γίνουν κατανοητοί.
Επίσης, τα αγάλματα των Θεών χρησιμοποιούνται ως σύμβολα
για αυτές τις ηθικές διδασκαλίες. Επομένως, οι Θεοί δεν έχουν ανθρώπινες
μορφές, δεν έχουν σεξουαλικά όργανα.
Στο Ολυμπιακό Πάνθεον έχουμε 12 Θεούς, δηλαδή έξι αρσενικούς
και έξι θηλυκές. Αυτό χρησιμοποιείται
για να συμβολίσει ότι για να έχει το Σύμπαν αρμονία πρέπει να
υπάρχει ισορροπία. Καθώς το Σύμπαν δηλ. Οι Θεοί είναι ένα ζωντανό "Οντος Ον". Όταν λέμε ότι οι Θεοί βρίσκονται
σε κατάσταση «Έρωτα», αυτό σημαίνει ότι τα θηλυκά και τα αρσενικά στοιχεία
ενώνονται για να παράγουν περαιτέρω τις ανάγκες του Σύμπαντος.
Στην πραγματικότητα υπάρχουν πολλοί Θεοί, όσοι
χρειάζονται για την τάξη του Σύμπαντος.
The 12 Gods of Olympus and our other Gods are not mortal human
beings!!
The 12 Gods of Olympus and our other Gods help us to understand
and comprehend our lives and our place in our world and Universe. In Hellenic theology when we
say we believe, we actually express ...our νομίζομεν... our
assessment... η εκτίμηση μας...η αξιολόγησή μας για τα θεία...for the
"Divine".
They have the respectful title
of Gods so that we may…………..
*through them , with respect
and humbleness pay tribute for our existence and well being.
*the 12 Gods of Olympus and our
other Gods contribute to us the principals, values and traditions of the
Hellenic people and Hellenic civilization.
We Hellenes admire our statues,
but we do not worship the statues of the Gods, but through their symbolism and
meaning we admire and worship our Gods. By showing love and respect to the Gods we …………….,
*in fact show love and
dedication to the true Gods of the Hellenic people.
*with respect to the Gods of
Olympus, we show respect to our Hellenic civilization and love, respect and
honor to our forefathers and ancestors.
We believe that everything has
been created through evolution with the mighty energy and power of our Gods. This evolution, this creation of the Gods for us, is a creation
of love, a labor of love by our Gods. We believe that this example of love by the Gods is
the greatest example which the Gods wants us Hellenes to copy, to follow.
What the Gods wants from us
humans is ……………….*to love
and respect all that the Gods have created and to take that love to its natural
destination and conclusion on all matters.
*we believe that the Gods want us
to love and respect our fellow human beings, not to kill or to do harm to
others.
We believe that the Gods made man
the most intelligent of all the species so that man with the Gods example of love
will ……………..
*love, respect, protect and
preserve the plant kingdom.
*love, respect, protect and preserve
the animal kingdom.
*love, respect, protect and
preserve our home, the planet for future generations.
We believe as the oracles have
passed on to us that the Gods chose the Hellenic people to take on
the challenge to create a high level of civilization for the good of mankind
and to pass on and share this civilization with all the people of the world.
* The Hellenic National
Religion was and is always in harmony with scientific research and development.
*Our religion was/is always in
harmony with evolution, progress and scientific advancement and creation.
*Our religion was never at odds
with science. Hellenic civilization was never a part of the dark ages.
*The enlightenment is founded
and based on classical Hellenic civilization. Hellenic civilization is founded
on logic and reason.
Σπονδές:
Η Σπονδή πού κυριαρχεί στην επικοινωνία με τις θεές και
τούς θεούς είναι αυτή τού ερυθρού Οίνου,το λάδι ,γάλα, μέλι , νερό ,αρώματα
μιμούμενοι το Νέκταρ των Θεών.
Η έκχυση των Σπονδικών υγρών στον Βωμό, στην Πυρά, στο
έδαφος, στη θάλασσα, στους ποταμούς, στις λίμνες, στα δένδρα, ήταν αναπόσπαστη
Ιερή πράξη της Ελληνικής Λατρείας.
Η Σπονδή ήταν Ιερός δεσμός πού ένωνε τούς ανθρώπους με το
Θείον. Ότι χύνεται δεν γυρίζει πίσω.
Οδύσσεια Ε, ( 92-94 )
Οι Σπονδές γίνονται από οινοχόη, σκύφο (κύπελλο), κρατήρα
(πού συμβολίζει το όλον, τον δεσμό μιας ομάδας, μιας κοινότητας, μιας πόλης,
μιας χώρας), δέπας (ποτήρι).
Επίσης σπονδές στους Θεους γίνονταν πριν από κάθε μάχη !

.....................................................
TWO CONCEPTS IN RELATION TO THE DIVINE...
THE JEWISH CONCEPT
& THE HELLENIC CONCEPT.
In the Jewish tradition, it is claimed that the Divine (Their God) existed
in a state of nothingness. That their God YAHWEH created everything from
nothing in six days and had to rest on the seventh.
This is what
the ancient Jewish people wrote in their Torah - Old Testament. How do they
know this? Who told them? Where and how did they get this information? Did they
invent this story from their own imagination?
In the Hellenic tradition our ancestors believed that nothing
can be created from nothing. That the Universe was/is timeless. That the Divine
exists within the Universe.
Our ancient
forefathers and ancestors observed and studied the Universe - Cosmos over many
generations. This brought about a great
understanding which resulted in achieving their religious assessment.
To better understand ancient Greek Mythology we must understand that it operated on two main levels. One that was addressed to many people and was used to teach moral principles and values and thus became the "permanent school" and folklore of the average Greek. {Mythology was used by the ancients for ethical teachings etc. To be properly understood the myths must be decoded.}
And another, {the deep and rich theology} which was addressed to fewer but more curious people (those that had a great yearning to learn) to teach codified higher knowledge about the World and the
Gods and thus became the "Theology" of the ancient Greek religion.
The Gods do not by nature have human forms or human bodies, this
is a movement on the part of man that needs the physical and the form to
understand them. And so their "human" form serves the needs of human
understanding and what is attributed to them does not mean that it belongs to
their nature. Also, Orpheus was the first to use the code of human kinship
degrees to teach Theology in an understandable way, but over the centuries this
was forgotten. Distorted by the adversaries.
The Gods are Universal, Universal Entities (Deities) and powers, each of
them expresses separate attributes, responsibilities and powers. They live in a
place called "Olympus", however this is not the mountain of the same
name in Macedonia. Etymologically the word Olympus means all-shining place,
all-glowing> Olympus. And this etymology is not given by anyone by chance,
but by the great philosopher Aristotle. The theologian Orpheus tells us that
the Gods reside in a place where there is no rain, no hail, no wind and no snow.
And the same is repeated by the poet Homer. In other words, they reside in the
supernatural place, which Plato explains in his work "Phaedrus",
where there is a constant Light and radiance, i.e. the glow of the Sun, the
Moon and the stars - in the Universe. The Gods reside in the Universe, they are the Universe.
To understand the theological meanings of Uranus (Ουρανού),
Saturn (Kronos), Zeus, and other Gods, we must relate them both to the early
manifestations of the physical laws of the Universe and to the deeper
properties and functions of Nature and the Universe, up to achieving harmony
and order, through the Universal Mind - Zeus, so that it is and functions as a
whole as the Universe, which means exactly the jewel (κόσμημα), order and law
of everything - the Universe. Through Zenos - Zeus came the other Olympian Gods and Goddesses, in the manifested Universe. But, as Plato explains, in his
work "Politician"«Πολιτικός» the Gods, after establishing Order in
the Universe, allowed all beings, including us humans, to evolve according to
the natural and divine laws.

ΔΥΟ ΕΝΝΟΙΕΣ ΣΧΕΤΙΚΑ ΜΕ
ΤΟ ΘΕΙΟ ... Η ΕΒΡΑΙΚΗ ΑΝΤΙΛΗΨΗ & Η ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΑΝΤΙΛΗΨΗ.
Στην εβραϊκή παράδοση,
υποστηρίζεται ότι το Θείο υπήρχε σε κατάσταση μηδενισμού. Ότι ο Θεός τους Ο
ΓΙΑΧΒΕ δημιούργησε τα πάντα από το τίποτα σε έξι ημέρες και έπρεπε να
ξεκουραστεί στην έβδομη.
Αυτό έγραψαν οι αρχαίοι Εβραίοι στην Τορά τους - Παλαιά Διαθήκη. Πώς το γνωρίζουν αυτό; Ποιος τους το είπε; Πού και πώς έλαβαν αυτές τις πληροφορίες; Επινόησαν αυτή την ιστορία από τη δική τους φαντασία;
Οι αρχαίοι πρόγονοί
και οι προπάτορες μας παρατήρησαν και μελέτησαν το Σύμπαν - Κόσμος για
πολλές γενιές. Αυτό επέφερε μια μεγάλη κατανόηση που κατέληξε στην επίτευξη της
θρησκευτικής τους εκτίμησης.
Στην ελληνική παράδοση
οι πρόγονοί μας πίστευαν ότι τίποτα δεν μπορεί να δημιουργηθεί από το τίποτα.
Ότι το Σύμπαν ήταν/είναι διαχρονικό. Ότι το Θείο υπήρχε/υπάρχει μέσα στο
Σύμπαν.
Για να κατανοήσουμε καλύτερα την αρχαία Ελληνική Μυθολογία πρέπει να καταλάβουμε ότι λειτουργούσε σε δύο κύρια επίπεδα. Ένα που απευθυνόταν στον πολύ κόσμο και χρησιμοποιήθηκε για να διδάξει ηθικές αρχές και αξίες και έτσι έγινε το «διαρκές σχολείο» και η λαογραφία του μέσου Έλληνα. {Η μυθολογία χρησιμοποιήθηκε από τους αρχαίους για ηθικές διδασκαλίες κλπ. Για να γίνουν σωστά κατανοητοί, οι μύθοι πρέπει να αποκωδικοποιηθούν.}
Καἰ ένα άλλο, (η πολύ πλούσια θεολογία με βάθος) που απευθυνόταν σε λιγώτερους μεν αλλά
πιο υποψιασμένους - περίεργους (άνθρωποι που είχαν μεγάλη δίψα για γνώση), για να διδάξει
κωδικοποιημένα ανώτερες γνώσεις για τον Κόσμο και τους Θεούς και έτσι έγινε η "Θεολογία" της αρχαίας Ελληνικής θρησκείας.
Οι Θεοί δεν έχουν από
την φύση τους ανθρώπινες μορφές ή ανθρώπινα σώματα, αυτό εἰναι μια κίνηση από
μέρους του ανθρώπου που χρειάζεται το μορφικό και το σωματικό για να τους
εννοήσει. Κι έτσι η «ανθρώπινη» μορφή τους εξυπηρετεί ανάγκες κατανόσης των
ανθρώπων και ό,τι αποδίδεται σε αυτούς δεν σημαίνει ότι και ανήκει στην φύση
τους. Επίσης, πρώτος ο Ορφεύς χρησιμοποίησε τον κώδικα των βαθμών συγγενείας
των ανθρώπων για να διδάξει Θεολογία με έναν τρόπο κατανοητό, αλλά στην πορεία
των αιώνων αυτό ξεχάστηκε ἠ διαστρεβλώθηκε από τους πολεμίους.
Οι Θεοί είναι Καθολικές,
Συμπαντικές Οντότητες και καθένας τους εκφράζει ξεχωριστές ιδιότητες,
διακιοδοσίες και δυνάμεις. Κατοικούν σε ένα μέρος που ονομάζεται «Όλυμπος»,
ωστόσο αυτό δεν είναι το ομώνυμο βουνό της Μακεδονίας. Ετυμολογικά η λέξη
Όλυμπος σημαίνει ολολαμπής τόπος, ολόλαμπος > Όλυμπος. Και αυτή την
ετυμολογία δεν την δίνει κανένας τυχαίος, αλλά ο μεγάλος φιλόσοφος Αριστοτέλης.
Ο θεολόγος Ορφεύς μας λέει ότι οι Θεοί κατοικούν σε ένα μέρος όπου δεν υπάρχει
ούτε βροχή, ούτε χαλάζι, ούτε άνεμος ή χιόνι. Και το ίδιο επαναλαμβάνει και ο
ποιητής Όμηρος. Με άλλα λόγια κατοικούν στον υπερουράνιο τόπο, που εξηγεί και ο
Πλάτων στο έργο του «Φαίδρος», όπου υπάρχει ένας διαρκές Φως και λάμψη. Ο
Ηλιος, το Φεγγάρη και τα Αστρα. Δηλαδή οι θεοί κατοικούν στο Σύμπαν και είναι το Σύμπαν.
Για να κατανοήσουμε τις
θεολογικές έννοιες του Ουρανού, του Κρόνου, του Διός, και των άλλων Θεών θα
πρέπει να τις συσχετίσουμε τόσο με τις πρώιμες εκδηλώσεις των φυσικών νόμων του
Σύμπαντος, όσο και με βαθύτερες ιδιότητες και λειτουργίες της Φύσεως και του
Σύμπαντος, μέχρι την επίτευξη της αρμονίας και της τάξης, μέσω του Συμπαντικού
Νού - Διός, ώστε να είναι και να λειτουργεί στο σύνολό του ως Κόσμος, που
σημαίνει ακριβώς κόσμημα, ευταξία και νόμος του παντός -Σύμπαντος. Μέσω του
Ζηνός - Διός ήρθαν και οι άλλοι Ολύμπιοι, Θεοί και Θεές, στο εκδηλωμένο Σύμπαν.
Αλλά, όπως εξηγεί και ο Πλάτων, στο έργο του «Πολιτικός» οι Θεοί, αφού έθεσαν
την Ταξη στο Σύμπαν, άφησαν όλα τα όντα, κι εμάς τους ανθρώπους, να εξελιχθούν
σύμφωνα με τους φυσικούς και θείους νόμους…
BASIC CONCEPTS OF THE HELLENIC ETHNIC RELIGION
THE ONE (ΤΟ ΟΝΤΩΣ ΟΝ)
The most important concept, for us
Hellenes, is “The One”, meaning the true and single Being.
“The One” is unborn and eternal
(“it has no beginning or end”), it is a given and indestructible entity that
merely encloses an endless change of forms and conditions.
“The One” is unique, homogeneous,
stationary, infinite and perfect. The latter two characteristics do not
conflict with the fact that it is quantitatively defined and evolving within
itself. “The One” is axiomatically the current image of infinity and
perfection, as nothing exists outside of it, so as to compare it and determine
it as “finite” and “incomplete”.
Because nothing exists outside “The
One”, it is also, axiomatically, identified with the Divinity. This is where,
we Hellenes, differ from the so-called “Abrahamic” religions (namely, Judaism,
Christianity and Islam), which place their supposed God before and outside the
true and single Being, which they try to degrade into a profane “construction”
and a “creation”.
Everything that exists or is
located within “The One” shares its own constant and unchangeable essence.
THE WORLD (Ο ΚΟΣΜΟΣ)
All parts of the single Being are
governed by orderliness and comprise the current “Kosmos” (the very few
remaining things comprise “Tartarus”, etymologically linked to “tarachi”,
agitation, who was the mythological “brother” of “Kosmos”, the World, both sons
of “Chaos”, i.e. the Essence with its properties still undefined).
We Hellenes define the “Kosmos” as
a part of the infinite Being that has acquired harmony and beauty (“infinitely
arranged and adorned”). “Kosmos” in ancient Greek means a gem, a piece of
jewellery. Exactly like “The One”, the “Kosmos” is indestructible and unborn,
it has designed its own internal order and is a logically organised whole. Like
“The One”, the “Kosmos” is not a “person” but the first diaeresis of the single
Being.
For us Hellenes, the “Kosmos” is
alive and material in its entirety (living matter) and consists of two living
levels that only differ in terms of the qualitative characteristics of their
common Essence. One level is the hidden world of imperishability (i.e. immortal
things that have not been cut off from the creative “Cause” and are
characterised by immortality, vastness and knowledge) and the other is the
revealed world of perishability (with beings who have been cut off from the
creative “Cause” and are characterised by mortality, appearance and finite or
no knowledge).
THE GODS (ΟΙ
ΘΕΟΙ)
The gods have emerged from the single Being by
simple accretions of the latter into separate entities, which is why they
maintain all its properties, namely immortality, vastness and knowledge. The
gods establish and maintain consistency and orderliness in the “Kosmos”.
The true, natural Gods are thus perfect and
ordering beings, who withhold immortality and knowledge and permeate freely
across the world, acting upon it. The Gods are subject to the determinism of
the world and faithfully serve its laws, while participating in “aeigenesia”,
i.e. perpetual generation and degeneration of forms.
As to their nature, the true, natural gods are
perfect, virtuous, immortal, immutable, infinite, just, omniscient, eternal,
impersonal, genderless, consistent, ethereal in their matter and able to
permeate the other matter.
It is obvious that these true, natural Gods,
are not “withdrawn”, are not “combined in one person”, are not “replaced”, do
not “stop existing” and are not “defeated”, according to the appetites or desires
of the wicked mortals or of organised impiety systems.
MORTAL BEINGS (ΤΑ ΘΝΗΤΑ ΟΝΤΑ)
Every living creature, everything that exists
in the revealed world of perishability, has been physically born. Their bodies
have a starting point and an ending in time; therefore, they are perishable and
mortal.
The properties of perishability and mortality
are independent of the speed at which they occur. People, animals, plants and
stones are all perishable in terms of their bodies and therefore, they are
mortal.
Death, which we will analyse below, dissolves
and distributes their physical matter to compose new forms and at the same time
returns to the Immortal their material mental quantity.
HUMANS (Ο ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΣ)
Humans are a biological species that is weakly,
but more directly, linked to the Divinity, as Nature has activated in their
brains the “Logos”, reason, thus making them the only mortal beings capable of
rational and safe knowledge (according to Speusippus).
As rational beings, humans differ from other “major”
biological species that form societies based on natural laws, because they
create social collectives (from families to nations), divine law and
institutions. In addition, as rational beings, humans show constant curiosity
to explore and understand their own species and their environment, while
constructing and inventing, developing increasingly sophisticated tools and
skills. Humans produce law, culture and technology.
As man is gifted by the Gods... with the greatest
intelligence from all the other living forms on Earth, we are of the thought
that one of man's important roles and duties is to oversee the protection and
the preservation of the Animal Kingdom and the Plant Kingdom. Also man has the
duty to oversee and to protect the environment of the Earth, for the good of
all and for the future of generations yet to come. Man as a "rational
being" should also respect Universal Justice and pay particular attention
to actions and choices that might affect others in a negative way.
For us MAN has been anointed by the Gods as THE CUSTODIAN OF ALL ON EARTH.
The greatest conquest of the Hellenic religion and a timeless gift to humanity is “Humanism”, i.e. respect to the human condition. For us Hellenes, humans are a value in themselves and all humans are considered related thanks to their common rational nature. However, only those that activate morally their rational nature through Virtue are linked to the Divinity.
LIFE (Η ΖΩΗ)
Every being in the hidden world of
imperishability, starting from “The One” itself to its many accretions (gods,
etc.) is immortal, therefore eternally alive. On the other hand, every being in
the revealed world of perishability, from the largest to the smallest ones,
from those visible to those invisible to the human eye, is involved through its
personal life to the specific phenomenon of life. Life, at the level of the
revealed world is therefore defined as all the biophysiological events within
the world.
Life at the level of the revealed
world is exclusively based on laws set by Nature, innumerable and rigid,
inviolable laws, which at the same time have been set with fine precision. The
uninterrupted power of Nature is revealed through the birth, growth, support
and re-dissolution (death) of the individual mortal beings, according to rigid
laws.
THE PURPOSE OF HUMAN LIFE (Ο ΣΚΟΠΟΣ ΤΗΣ ΑΝΘΡΩΠΙΝΗΣ ΖΩΗΣ)
The purpose (“telios”) of the life
of individual beings is the maintenance and perfection of the single Being. The
term “telios” means the completion, purpose, perfection, performance, and
outcome.
Exceptionally, the purpose of the
life of the rational being (humans) is perfecting itself (“teleiosis”) using
the weak but immediate proximity to the Divinity through “Logos”, the Reason.
For us Hellenes, the purpose of the
rational being is to look to the truth and orderliness of the “Kosmos”,
understand them and contribute to them through virtuous praxis (actions), to
the extent allowed by its mortal, limited nature.
The outcome of this work is the
emulation of Gods, moral splendour and perfection of our nature by having a
perfect life.
Socrates said that in all points,
human life should emulate the beauty and perfection of masterpieces.
Virtue (Η
ΑΡΕΤΗ)
The tool for human perfection and likeness to
the Gods is Virtue, namely the conscious and practical perfection and
superiority. This conscious and practical perfection and superiority is
achieved when the properties of the Gods, previously understood by humans, are
transferred as values and ethical standards within human life for continuous
application.
The philosopher of the 15th century Georgios
Gemistos Plethon, to whom the Hellenic National religion owes to a great extent
its survival until today, gave a very good definition of virtue in the
following words: “Virtue is the habit through which we become virtuous.
However, only the Divine is really virtuous, but we, humans, become virtuous by
imitating it, within our human potential.”
DEATH (Ο ΘΑΝΑΤΟΣ)
Everything in the revealed world of
perishability is shared physicality and mental matter, just as in the hidden
world of imperishability everything is a shared Divinity. We Hellenes face
death serenely as one of the many physical laws of this precise revealed world
of perishability. Death serves evolution by constantly renewing the forms of
revealed life.
Only the ignorant are anxious about whether or
not they will lose the temporary and insignificant cluster of personality
characteristics, erroneously perceived as the “self”. At the universal level,
“loss”, “nothingness” and all similar terms are meaningless, since nothing in
the Being can be “lost”. Absolutely no “loss” can happen within a given and
imperishable whole, which simply encloses an endless change of forms and
conditions.
Death merely discontinues one “life”, channelling
physicality to a new use and returning the mental matter to the Immortal, while
the consciousness of the single Being is enriched with the memory of yet
another biography. What lives in the underworld of the Greeks is not the real
psyche of the departed, but the mere “shadow” of their lives, a stored item in
the consciousness of “The One”, which is only recalled by similar “living”
beings, with a ceremony or honouring reference.
THE PSYCHE - SOUL (Η ΨΥΧΗ)
The psyche is the invisible cause of
biophysiological events, or, in other words, the essential cohesive element of
beings in the revealed world. For us, the psyche is immortal, universal and
there is no doubt at all regarding whether or not it will be... “saved”.
It is simply “revealed” in the world of
perishability, by giving life to the heavy matter of mortal beings; it passes,
after the biological “death”, into oblivion, returning to the Immortal, until
it is “revealed” again and again, forever, for the perpetuation of life and the
increasing perfection of the single Being.
Every individual being (“person”) of the
revealed world, contains a large or small, strong or weak, quantity of the
world of imperishability. As already said, the increasing perfection of the single
Being is achieved through the processing of individual mental quantities. Some
of us additionally believe that within the rational beings, mental quantity
acquires “personal” elements that it maintains when it returns to the level of
imperishability.
.......................................................................
THE HOLY LIGHT OF THE HELLENES:
They say a lot about the distribution of "holy light". As a Greek, I recognize as holy that light which is emitted - diffused, by our sun, by the infinite stars of the infinite galaxies, the offspring of the self-existent universe. So this light is not subject to human laws and therefore does not need to be distributed or sanctified. So we Hellenes receive the holy light in our hearts, in the mind, in the body, in the home from the first dawn, looking up and not kneeling, until we receive it again in the next dawn, not as a flock, because we do not need shepherds. We Greeks have magnified and given our light to humanity without a shepherd. We go about our lives as fighters for a virtuous life, here and now, without posthumous threats or promises. True Hellenes find bliss in the consciously virtuous life. Our guide is wisdom and not humility, our guide is the sanctuaries and saints of our ancestors, whose wisdom, 2500 years ago (and for many hundreds of years before), dominated the four horizons. So, tomorrow at dawn, make an appointment again with the genuine Hellenic holy light of the sun, let it flood your heart and your home, and every morning. Draw each of its rays with or without clouds .....
ΤΟ ΙΕΡΟ ΦΩΣ ΤΩΝ ΕΛΛΗΝΩΝ:
ΤΟ ΙΕΡΟ ΦΩΣ ΤΩΝ ΕΛΛΗΝΩΝ:
Λένε πολλά για τη διανομή του "αγίου φωτός". Ως Έλλην αναγνωρίζω άγιο εκείνο το φως το οποίο εκπέμπεται - διαχέεται , από τον ήλιο μας, από τους άπειρους αστέρες των άπειρων γαλαξιών, γεννήματα του αυθύπαρκτου σύμπαντος κόσμου. Αυτό λοιπόν το φως δεν υπόκειται σε ανθρώπινους νόμους και κατά συνέπειαν δεν χρειάζεται διανομή ούτε καθαγίαση. Εμείς οι Έλληνες λοιπόν παραλαμβάνουμε το άγιο φως στην καρδιά, στο νου, στο σώμα, στην οικία από το πρώτο χάραμα, κοιτώντας ψηλά και όχι γονυπετεις, μέχρι να το παραλάβουμε ξανά το επόμενο χάραμα, όχι ως ποιμνία, διότι δεν έχουμε ανάγκη ποιμένες. Οι Έλληνες μεγαλουργήσαμε και δώσαμε το φώς μας στην ανθρωπότητα χωρίς ποιμένα. Πορευόμαστε στο βίο μας ως αγωνιζόμενοι για ενάρετο βίο,εδώ και τώρα, δίχως μεταθανάτιες απειλές ή υποσχέσεις. Οι γνήσιοι Έλληνες βρίσκουμε την ευδαιμονία στη συνειδητά ενάρετη ζωή. Οδηγός μας είναι η σωφροσύνη και όχι η ταπεινοφροσύνη, οδηγός μας είναι τα ιερά και όσια των προγόνων μας, των οποίων η σοφία, πριν 2500 έτη (και για πολλές εκατονταετίες) , κυριάρχησε στους τέσσερις ορίζοντες. Αύριο το χάραμα λοιπόν ραντεβού ξανά με το γνήσιο Ελληνικό άγιο φως του ήλιου, αφήστε το να σας πλημμυρίσει την καρδιά και το σπίτι σας, όπως και κάθε πρωΐ. Αδράξτε κάθε ακτίνα του με σύννεφα ή χωρίς.....

OI ΕΠΤΑ
ΝΟΜΟΙ ΤΟΥ ΣΥΜΠΑΝΤΟΣ
ΕΡΜΗΣ ΤΡΙΣΜΕΓΙΣΤΟΣ
Έχει ενδιαφέρον να διαβάσουμε τι λέγεται για τον Ερμή τον Τρισμέγιστο ο οποίος
μας οδηγεί στο να κατανοήσουμε σε ποιο σύμπαν ζούμε και ποιοι είμαστε
πραγματικά εμείς οι άνθρωποι..
Οι 7 νόμοι του Σύμπαντος. Οι αρχές της Αλήθειας είναι επτά: εκείνος που το
καταλαβαίνει αυτό τέλεια, κατέχει το μαγικό κλειδί, που με αυτό οι Πύλες του
ναού θα ανοίξουν.
1....Το Παν είναι ο Λόγος. Το σύμπαν είναι Νοητικο
2....Όπως είναι πάνω, είναι και κάτω. Όπως είναι κάτω, είναι και πάνω.
Δηλαδή.....Όπως είναι πάνω έτσι είναι και εδώ κάτω.Τα αμετάβλητα νοητά και
όμοια αισθητά.Όπως είναι πάνω στον έβδομο ουρανό, έτσι είναι και εδώ κάτω,
εννοεί το πνεύμα, το οποίο στο γίγνεσθαι του υλικού κόσμου των μορφών, έχει
επτά σώματα και επτά διαφορετικές βαθμίδες πνεύματος, όπου το ανώτερο πνεύμα
εξουσιάζει το κατώτερο.
Η ανθρώπινη ψυχή είναι η μόνη που κατέχει το Ιερόν Πυρ, δηλαδή τις επτά
βαθμίδες του πνεύματος, οπότε ένας άνθρωπος εδώ κάτω στην Γη, αν αφυπνίσει το
Νου και την καρδιά, θα αποκτήσει το πνεύμα του πυρός, δηλαδή την ικανότητα να
τον οδηγεί το ανώτερο πνεύμα του πυρός.
3....Τίποτε δεν είναι ακίνητο, όλα δονούνται.
4...Όλα είναι δυαδικά, όλα έχουν δύο πόλους. Όλα είναι ένα ζεύγος αντιθέτων, τα
άκρα αγγίζονται.
5...Όλα ρέουν και πάλι ρέουν. Όλα έχουν περιόδους ακμής και παρακμής, ανόδου
και καθόδου. Όλα κινούνται σαν εκκρεμές.Το μέτρο της κίνησης προς τα δεξιά
είναι όμοιο με αυτό της κίνησης προς τα αριστερά. Ο ρυθμός είναι η εξίσωση
τούς.
6...Κάθε αιτία έχει το αποτέλεσμα της. Κάθε αποτέλεσμα έχει μια αιτία, όλα
γίνονται σύμφωνα με τον Νόμο.
7...Η γέννηση υπάρχει παντού. Όλα έχουν μια αρσενική και μια θηλυκή αρχή. Η
γέννηση εκδηλώνεται σε κάθε επίπεδο.
Για τον Ερμή Τρισμέγιστο υπάρχει δρόμος επιστροφής, αν κάποιος προετοιμάζει την
ψυχή του από την γη. Για αυτόν ακριβώς τον λόγο, όσο βρισκόμαστε εν ζωή
οφείλουμε να δίνουμε μεγαλύτερη σημασία στην καλλιέργεια των πνευματικών και
ψυχικών μας αρετών, παρά στο σώμα μας.
Ο άνθρωπος, λοιπόν, μπορεί να οδηγηθεί πάλι στην θέωση μέσα από την απόκτηση
της γνώσης, κατανοώντας πρώτα από όλα τους νόμους που διέπουν το σύμπαν και εν
συνεχεία μέσα από την δική του καλλιέργεια, έχοντας αποκτήσει αυτογνωσία και
αποφεύγοντας να κάνει κακό σε άλλους ανθρώπους.
Μόνο μέσα από την προσπάθειά μας να εξισώσουμε τον εαυτό μας με το θείο/θεούς
μπορούμε να τον κατανοήσουμε, αφού μόνο τα όμοια έλκονται και
αλληλοκατανοούνται.
Η αρετή, λοιπόν, η σωφροσύνη και η ευσέβεια είναι η γνώση του θεού. Συνήθως,
όσοι άνθρωποι αποκτήσουν την γνώση αυτή, μετά διαχωρίζουν τον εαυτό τους από
τους υπόλοιπους ανθρώπους, αφού δημιουργείται μίας μορφής αμοιβαίας αντιπάθειας
αναμεταξύ τους.
((οι πρόγονοι μας έδειξαν τον δρόμο....Σταμάτα να ασχολείσαι με ψευδοσωτηρες...
Μόνο μ έναν τρόπο θα
φτάσεις στο φως...))

ORIGINAL
SIN.....ANCESTRAL SIN OF THE JEWS
I think it
is time to put my Christian friends on the right track on this issue.
The word
SIN is derived from the biblical fictitious story about Adam & Eve.
SUPPOSEDLY a talking snake advised on behalf of "The God of
the Jews" in a conversation with Adam and Eve that God did not want them to eat a particular fruit in paradise where they were staying.
Eve ate
this fruit and thus went against the orders of this biblical God, this act of
disobeying God was termed by the Jews in their Hebrew language as the "ANCESTRAL SIN".
This is how the term SIN with this meaning came about.
And supposedly God came to earth in the form of Jesus to sacrifice himself so as to absolve man of this supposed Ancestral Sin.
And supposedly God came to earth in the form of Jesus to sacrifice himself so as to absolve man of this supposed Ancestral Sin.
Later on
the Christians further qualified this term to fit in with their Christian
theology. As the Greek language was the most refined and the most universal
language at the time and the TORAH was already translated into the Hellenic
language (Old Testament), they needed the Greek language to further invent and
to explain their Christian doctrine and theology to non Jews.
So they
stole many Hellenic words and terminologies to achieve this goal.
One of
these words they plagiarized was the word "AMARTIA", which in the
ancient Hellenic language meant FAILURE. They construed the
meaning of this word and used it to mean and express the word SIN.
In other
words they changed the original meaning of this word.
The
ancient Hellenes did not have a word for SIN. Because they did not need it and
therefore never invented it. Their religious principles, values and relations
to their Gods differed to those of the Jewish people had with their God. Sin or "Amartia" with this meaning was not part of the religious tradition. In fact before the Jewish holy book the TORAH was translated into Greek, the ancient Greeks had no idea of the existence of this Jewish fairy tale.
They did
not believe in the Adam & Eve story, it was not part of their Hellenic
tradition, folklore or part of their religious theology.
To express
a wrongful act, they used the term ethical or unethical, moral or immoral, good
or bad, right or wrong, just or unjust or they would use the term of someone
committing a "CRIME", i.e. committing a criminal act.
P.S.
Many scholars say that the 70 Jews that translated the Torah ( Jewish holy book
) into Greek ( Old Testament ) actually plagiarized the Greek word AMARTIA and
gave it the new meaning of SIN when they
were translating the Adam & Eve story which was contained in the Torah.
ΠΡΟΠΑΤΟΡΙΚΟ ΑΜΑΡΤΗΜΑ.....
Νομίζω ότι είναι καιρός να θέσω τους χριστιανούς φίλους μου στο σωστό δρόμο
για το θέμα αυτό.
Η λέξη ΑΜΑΡΤΙΑ προέρχεται από την βιβλική φανταστική ιστορία για τον Αδάμ
και την Εύα.
Ο Θεός των Εβραίων υποτίθεται ότι απαγορεύει στον Αδάμ και την Εύα να φάνε
ένα συγκεκριμένο καρπό. 'Ενα φίδι έκανε προφορικό διάλογο με τον Αδάμ και την Εύα προειδοποιοντας τους αυτή την απαγορεύση του θεού.
Η Εύα έφαγε αυτό το φρούτο και έτσι έπεσε ενάντια στις εντολές αυτού του
βιβλικού Θεού, αυτή η πράξη μη υπακοής του Θεού ονομάστηκε από τους Εβραίους
στην εβραϊκή τους γλώσσα ως ΑΜΑΡΤΩΛΉ ΠΡΑΞΗ. Αυτός είναι ο τρόπος που ο όρος
ΑΜΑΡΤΙΑ με αυτή την έννοια προήλθε.
Αργότερα οι χριστιανοί προσδιόρισαν περαιτέρω αυτόν τον όρο για να
ταιριάζει με τη χριστιανική θεολογία τους. Καθώς η ελληνική γλώσσα ήταν η πιο εκλεπτυσμένη
και πιο οικουμενική τότε γλώσσα στον κόσμο και το ΤΟΡΑ μεταφράστηκε ήδη στην
Ελληνική γλώσσα (Παλαιά Διαθήκη) και χρειάστηκε η ελληνική γλώσσα για να
εφεύρει και να εξηγήσει περαιτέρω το χριστιανικό δόγμα και τη θεολογία τους.
Έτσι έκλεψαν πολλές ελληνικές λέξεις και ορολογία για να επιτύχουν αυτόν
τον στόχο.
Μια από αυτές τις λέξεις που λόγο - έκλεψαν ήταν η λέξη «ΑΜΑΡΤΊΑ», η οποία
στην αρχαία ελληνική γλώσσα σήμαινε ΑΠΟΤΥΧΊΑ. Άλλαξαν την έννοια αυτής της
λέξης και την χρησιμοποίησαν για να εννοήσουν και να εκφράσουν τη λέξη ΑΜΑΡΤΊΑ.
Με άλλα λόγια άλλαξαν την αρχική έννοια αυτής της λέξης.
Η αρχαίοι Έλληνες δεν είχαν λέξη για την λεγομένη "ΑΜΑΡΤΙΑ" των Εβραίων. Επειδή δεν
το χρειάστηκαν και επομένως ποτέ δεν το επινόησαν. Οι θρησκευτικές αρχές, οι
αξίες και οι σχέσεις τους με τους Θεούς τους διέφεραν από εκείνες του εβραϊκού
λαού με τον Θεό τους. Η
"Αμάρτια" με αυτή την έννοια δεν ήταν μέρος της θρησκευτικής
παράδοσης τους. Στην πραγματικότητα πριν από το εβραϊκό ιερό βιβλίο το
"Τόρα" μεταφράστηκε στα ελληνικά, οι αρχαίοι Έλληνες δεν είχαν ιδέα
για την ύπαρξη αυτού του εβραϊκού παραμυθιού.
Δεν πίστευαν στην ιστορία του Αδάμ και της Εύας, δεν ήταν μέρος της
ελληνικής τους παράδοσης, λαογραφίας ή μέρους της θρησκευτικής τους θεολογίας.
Για να εκφράσουν μια λανθασμένη ή κακή πράξη, χρησιμοποίησαν τον όρο ηθικό
ή ανήθικο, καλό ή κακό, σωστό ή λάθος, , δίκαιο ή άδικο ή θα χρησιμοποιούσαν
τον όρο ή την λέξη για ένα "ΈΓΚΛΗΜΑ"...εγκληματική πράξη.
Υ.Γ. Πολλοί μελετητές λένε ότι οι 70 Εβραίοι όταν μετέφραζαν το Τορά (
Εβραϊκή Βίβλο ) στα ελληνικά ( Π.Δ. ) έκλεψαν την ελληνική λέξη ΑΜΑΡΤΊΑ και της
έδωσαν τη νέα έννοια της ΑΜΑΡΤΙΑΣ όταν μεταφράζαν την ιστορία του Αδάμ και της
Εύας που περιείχε το Τορά.
Χριστιανοί φίλοι, για να καταλάβετε όλα τα παραπάνω, πρέπει να σπάσετε τις
χριστιανικές αλυσίδες που έχουν φυλακίσει το μυαλό σας.

HELLENIC VALUE SYSTEM AND WAY OF LIFE.....
In ancient times we had many brilliant philosophers and
theologians who expressed their religious principles and values about the Gods
through our Hellenic mythology in a coded form. In other words the LOGOS or
word of truth was stored in the myth. To be understood correctly the myths had
to be decoded. These were very responsible, dedicated and serious philosophers
and theologians.
Other writers who were not responsible and dedicated to our
Hellenic religion also came along and added their views with elements of
fiction onto some of these myths and in the process undermined and did a lot of
harm to our understanding of our religion. This was further exec-abated with
foreign scholars who accepted all the myths as being authentic theological
myths who also could not fully understand and properly decode the myths.
Our Hellenic national religion is in part founded on our
authentic theological myths, but more importantly it is founded in the many and
very rich philosophical and theological writing and texts of:
Orpheus, Plutarch, Proclus, Porphyrius, Iamblichus, Plenty,
Pythagoras, Socrates - Plato, Aristotle, Plutarch, Plotinus,
Porphyrios and others.
*** It is these sources that we need to fully research, examine
and understand if we are to fully comprehend our Hellenic national religion and
Hellenic way of life.
ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΟ ΑΞΙΑΚΌ ΣΎΣΤΗΜΑ ΚΑΙ ΤΡΌΠΟ
ΖΩΉΣ
Στην αρχαιότητα είχαμε πολλούς
λαμπρούς φιλοσόφους και θεολόγους που εξέφρασαν τις θρησκευτικές τους αρχές και
αξίες για τους Θεούς μέσω της ελληνικής μυθολογίας μας με κωδικοποιημένη μορφή.
Με άλλα λόγια ο ΛΟΓΟΣ ή η λέξη της αλήθειας αποθηκεύτηκαν στον μύθο. Για να
γίνει σωστά κατανοητός, οι μύθοι έπρεπε να αποκωδικοποιηθούν. Αυτοί ήταν πολύ
υπεύθυνοι, αφιερωμένοι και σοβαροί φιλόσοφοι και θεολόγοι.
Άλλοι συγγραφείς που δεν ήταν
υπεύθυνοι και αφοσιωμένοι στην ελληνική μας θρησκεία, ήρθαν και πρόσθεσαν τις
απόψεις τους με στοιχεία μυθοπλασίας σε ορισμένους από αυτούς τους μύθους και
κατά τη διαδικασία υπονόμευσαν και έκαναν μεγάλη ζημιά στην κατανόηση της
θρησκείας μας. Αυτό εκτελέστηκε περαιτέρω με ξένους μελετητές που αποδέχτηκαν
όλους τους μύθους ως αυθεντικούς θεολογικούς μύθους, οι οποίοι επίσης δεν
μπορούσαν να κατανοήσουν πλήρως και να τους αποκωδικοποιήσουν σωστά.
Η ελληνική μας εθνική θρησκεία
βασίζεται εν μέρει στους αυθεντικούς θεολογικούς μύθους μας, αλλά κυρίως στη
θεμελιώδη και πολύ πλούσια φιλοσοφική και θεολογική γραφή και κείμενα
(συγγράμματα) του:
Ορφέας, Πλούταρχος, Πρόκλος,,
Πορφύριος, Ιάμβλιχος, Πλήθων.

THE NEED TO
RETURN TO OUR NATIONAL - ETHNIC TRADITIONS AND RELIGIONS AND THE SOLUTIONS THEY
PROPOSE TO MODERN MAN.
To answer the above question, we should first define what national traditions
and religions are and see the differences from established or apocalyptic
religions. We should see what kind of people each produces and what the other
produces, which religion and tradition promotes virtue and which promotes fear,
hatred, intolerance and cruelty.
Thus, the tradition is inherent to the nation that gave birth to it, that is,
it is national and cannot have a time starting point that is later than the
starting point of this nation.
No closed system of perception and behavior that was invented or created at one
time and then prevailed destroying all previous national traditions is a
tradition. There is neither a Christian nor an Islamic tradition. And since we
have defined that there is no Christian and Islamic tradition (we can
generalize it, that there is no monotheistic tradition) we proceed to some of
the many important differences that the National Ethnic Religions have against
the established or apocalyptic religions.
1) The truth of natural religions is intellectual, that is, man understands
divinity through the intellect that connects him to it. The truth of the
established religions is apocalyptic, that is, the divinity is supposed to have
"revealed" itself to some chosen people or to some chosen person.
2) Natural religions understand the multiplicity and diversity that nature
itself requires and each one of them is sufficient for the people who accept
it, with no intention of extending it to others who follow another religion.
They accept the concept of God of other nations and consider them correct in
the context of the traditions that have developed. On the contrary, the
established or apocalyptic religions treat their version of the truth as one
and only and demand to impose it on all the people of the planet, either
through direct violence (i.e. slaughtering those who resisted Christianity) or
through indirect violence (i.e. through laws , removal or minimization of
possibility of the different right to exist).Because of this very difference
between them for many centuries the established or apocalyptic religions,
expand at the expense of the natural religions since cruelty, or intolerance
and the armed hand, are stronger than kindness, tolerance and the hand extended
with friendship and understanding.
3) The most important difference, however, is the Value System of the natural
religions, which in the Hellenic Ethnic Religion, has to do with Right Reason,
Humanism, but primarily with Virtue. Virtue through Ethical Philosophy, does
not deal with reflection but with <<practice>> and its search is
the<<authentically ethical praxis>>or the<<Praxis of
Virtue>>. The Practice of Virtue is the practice of DUTY. Duty is what is
done with consistency, honesty and awareness of the value of man, as a rational
and moral being. There are three conditions of Duty: Consistency, Honesty and
Awareness. In the eyes of those uninitiated in moral philosophy, the struggle
for Virtue seems futile because they judge it statically, being completely
ignorant of Virtue or even averse to it. Man is related to the gods only
through Virtue and only through it can he resemble them by perfecting the
highest part of himself. There are three conditions in this effort: firstly,
the acceptance of Virtue as something divine, i.e. as an absolute quantity that
cannot be reduced elsewhere and is not amenable to discounts, secondly Dignity
and thirdly the Taking of Responsibilities. The Great Greek and Teacher VLASIS
G. RASSIAS always said in public speeches, to the annoyance of those who are
bothered by this, that Hellenism, the National - Ethnic, not the one by
nationality, is primarily Virtue, Virtue, Virtue, Virtue. The Virtues are many.
Below I will analyze some, so that we can see and understand the necessity of
returning to the National Ethnic Traditions and religions, through the
differences that exist and the suggestions that each one gives us.
THE VIRTUE OF FAITH
1) The Virtue of Faith is a very important question for man. It is one of those
Virtues that build the Value System of the Greeks. With Faith, you cultivate
Devotion, Honesty, Guarantee, Reliability, Stability and Consistency, in
keeping covenants and Oaths. God protector of <<Faith>> as Virtue,
is God Zeus <<Faithful>>. The possessor of the Virtue of Faith is
called a believer, that is, one who is genuine and adamantine in character,
trustworthy, honest and trustworthy, one who remains firm and remains true to
his word or oath, does not yield to pressure, remains faithful in his
principles and his views. Unfortunately, however, the meaning of the Virtue of
Faith has been falsified by Christians to such an extent that it has come to
mean << the acceptance without evidence of what someone says, who speaks
without knowledge, about unprecedented things. The opposite of Faith is
Infidelity, Unreliability, Subjugation, Treachery, Duplicity and Betrayal.
THE VIRTUE OF HONESTY
The Virtue of Honesty belongs to the God Apollo and is a reflection of God
within the human soul, it is directly related to those of Harmony and Honesty.
It is the Virtue, according to which, man always and directly tells the truth.
Like the god Apollo, he does everything <<ΔΗΛΑ>>, i.e. openly so
also Honesty reveals to us ourselves, what we really are. Before one can be
honest with others, one must be honest with oneself. The Virtue of Honesty, of
course, also suffered this conceptual distortion and from the reflection of the
God Apollo, in the human soul it was relegated by the Christians to the quality
of self-abasement and the so-called ``repentance''. <<the god e.g. waits
for the sincere repentance of sinners>>, <<repentance will lead us
to sincere confession>> etc. The ``very'' old Paisios, ``enlightens'' us
that the ``psychiatric hospitals'' would be empty if the Christians professed
orthodoxy. Purely, with sincerity, humility and obedience, in a discreet
spiritual>>. In the 14 black centuries of Christian omnipotence (4th to
17th AD) at least, Honesty not only disappeared, as a Virtue but even as a way,
it put the one who dared to manifest it, in immediate and mortal danger.
THE VIRTUE OF PARRISIA.
Parrisia is when someone expresses himself without fear and inhibitions, with
courage, honesty but above all with directness (that is, he is the one who can
speak freely). It was considered a basic Virtue, it is a condition of freedom
and decency and forms the non-slave man. It manifested itself both in the political
discourse and in the cultural one. On the cult level, the word means direct
communication with the Gods. Through Parrisia, that citizen is born who is
free, because he chooses to speak openly and honestly instead of deceiving his
interlocutor, with various rhetorical tricks, because he chooses the truth and
not silence or lies, the risk of life, instead of security, criticism instead
of flattery, moral duty instead of passivity, and indifference to one's
personal gain. Parrisia presupposes that one possesses the necessary qualities,
so that one can fearlessly speak out the raw truth that is avoided by the mean
and cowardly. The preacher essentially manifests his personal relationship,
with freedom, with truth, with political duty as well as with moral duty. The
so fundamental Virtue of Parrisia, which moved the free man from mere opinion
to the responsibility of the truth, was naturally lost with the prevalence of
Christianity. At the beginning with a direct hit and then with appropriation
and conceptual distortion, which reaches up to our days, where the pro-Aster
Geron Paisios, informs his co-religionists, that supposedly Parrisia is
impudence and drives away the fear of God like smoke that we put on the bees to
get them away from the hive.
THE VIRTUE OF PIETY.
The Virtue of Eusebia, according to Homer, is the starting point of all
Virtues. As a word it means to worship, honor, respect. It is the virtue of a
good sense of the obligations of man and of the collective to which he
organically belongs (house, genus, city, nation). Piety is the general ability
of someone to practice respect, that is, to be able to recognize something as
respectable and to be able to to pay him respect. That is, the Virtue of the
respectful and devoted. It is Virtue, which correctly guides man in his
political duties and by extension respect for the Gods. Faithfulness also
concerns due respect to persons and institutions protected by the Gods, e.g.
parents, elders, city leaders as political institutions. Its opposite is Disrespect.
Here the Christians, who were eminently steeped in Godliness, invented, when
they prevailed, a supposed rule of righteousness, claiming that supposedly
"real" Godliness is combined with... faith, love and hope. To
recognize on their part, piety towards the NATIONS, let's not even discuss it,
since according to them all the gods of the nations are demons.

UNION OF
ETHNIC HELLENES - Hellenic Ethnic Religion and Honour.
[This post was triggered by actions of two categories of people with whom I
have specific experience, here in the United States: 1) a few unlettered and
ignorant American polytheists who willfully call themselves
"Hellenes" or "Hellenists" and even demand, with the
insolence that usually distinguishes the worthless, that THEY define Hellenism,
unilaterally and only as a “religion”, interpreting it according to their
misguided opinion, while rejecting its ethnic Greek heritage (all the crazy,
all the unhinged things in America first manifest themselves); 2) Those who I
call the "wiseacres”, that is, those who accept only parts of Hellenism,
such as the philosophy (in fragments), and history, the language, but not the
ancestral religion. It is the atheists and some Epicureans, the modern
Robespierres of so-called knowledge (which in essence is a sophistry), who
consider themselves to be above religious superstitions, as they characterize
the worship of the Hellenic Gods, as if they know about the divine better than
Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.]
IT’S EITHER THE WHOLE "PACKAGE" OR NOTHING!
* What is Hellenism...and what it is not.*
Hellenism is an immense Ideo-universe which, at the level of Gnosis and
understanding, is transformed into a Worldview through which its partakers
interpret and understand, with a specific frame of mind, all the functions of
human existence. It includes the Hellenic Ethnic Religion, Greek philosophy
with special emphasis on political philosophy, ethics and virtues, and the
Hellenic cultural identity (language, tradition, race, history, nationality,
aesthetics, culture, ideology, etc.). As a worldview, Hellenism is complete,
ONE, self-sufficient, independent and of course eternal.
These individual parts of Hellenism are in an organic “kata physein”
relationship with each other, as links in a chain, having a relationship of
overlapping, mutual influence and reciprocity where, strictly speaking, no part
can ever surpass the whole, that is, Hellenism in its collective Oneness.
Hellenism is the gift of the Gods to humanity, one that liberates us from our
spiritual shackles, such as the scourge of ignorance and sophistry, and enables
us to assimilate with the divine.
By definition, Hellenism is ABOVE all religions, such as Christianity and its
subdivisions such as Orthodoxy, above political ideologies and movements, old
and contemporary, and generally above states, organizations, political,
economic, social programs and groups that support them.
From the aforesaid, it is a natural conclusion that anyone who wants to belong
to the vast ideological universe of Hellenism must participate with due respect
and recognition that they share and participate in ALL the elements that make
up and constitute it, and not as a part-time job, piecemeal and as they please.
Proclus, originally from Lycia, Plotinus born Egyptian, the great Julian
emperor and crowned philosopher, Thomas Taylor the Platonist born in London,
were all Hellenes NOT in origin but in their worldview, in Thought and
Behavior, living Hellenism as a Way of Life, participating in spirit and body.
All of the above is an introduction to the following axiom: Any emphasis or
fixation on only one of the subsets of Hellenism, by definition, cannot carry
the name of "Hellenism". The part, any part, cannot be greater than
the whole and any subset of Hellenism, without constant interaction with the
other interdependent subsets. Any part concocted by outsiders, people with no
familiarity let alone real knowledge of the various divisions of Hellenism, to
fit their political agenda, is not OF Hellenism, it is NOT Hellenism but rather
Cultural Appropriation, plain and simple.
The wonderful Greek Philosophy, by itself, cut off from the body of Hellenism,
would be only wonderment, inquiry, contemplation. It would still fill the
individual existence of those who partake in it but would not be part of a
greater Whole that transcends the narrow limits of the individual. So is the
Hellenic Ethnic Religion which, as a subset of Hellenism, promotes, supports,
highlights and assists in its operation. If ever the Hellenic Ethnic Religion
were to separate itself in order to serve other national peoples, or if it
acquired an independent ecumenical identity and claimed a role above the Whole,
like the monotheistic religions have, then, the religion would place itself
OUTSIDE of HELLENISM and would cease to have a reason for its existence (among
the Hellenes).
The relationship of the communicating vessels also characterizes the
interaction of the parts with each other. Greek philosophy is elevated to
divine levels when it goes along with the religious contemplation of the
ancestral religion while the Hellenic Ethnic Religion finds its completion
through the supreme theological approach developed by Plato, Proclus and
Plotinus so that one can characterize philosophy and religion as two souls in
one body, that of Hellenism, and as a single philosophical-religious edifice.
In the other subset of Hellenism, cultural Identity, when cut-off from the
ancestral religion it is an orphan, without solid foundations and prone to the
cognitive dissonance that is emblematic of the Greek/Modern - Greek (2,000
years of being confused or, more correctly, misled).
So in conclusion, those who choose only some elements of Hellenism, as they see
fit, and stay away from the rest of its integral parts, are Apostates of
Hellenism without understanding it - both literally and figuratively, or if
they come from outside of the Greek traditions, determined to only plunder and
cherry-pick elements of the Greek Religion, they are cultural squatters,
carpetbaggers and opportunists.
Hellenism requires respect, thorough knowledge, self-awareness and a clear
choice: Either the entire "Package" or Nothing!
Theodore Kalavesios
.........................................
From our ancient Hellenic Oracles...
From the beginning, we know as the oracles have revealed and
passed on to us that the Gods (GOD) gifted our Hellenic people with the great
gifts of Hellenic identity and Hellenic language. The Gods (GOD) also
chose and requested from the Hellenic people that they take on the eternal
challenge and mission (duty) to create a high level of civilization for the
good of mankind and to pass on and share this civilization with all the people
of the world. They requested that this covenant be binding forever to all the
generations of Hellenes to come.
The Gods (GOD) also requested that the Hellenic people give
their word that they would remain Hellenes forever, to keep alive their
language and to always support totally one another, so as to be able as a
Hellenic People, to fulfill the eternal mission of the Gods, to maintain the
covenant between the Gods and the Hellenic People and therefore to always
protect, preserve, maintain and pass on these gifts, to their descendants and
to keep for all time.
The Hellenic people eagerly accepted the honor, the challenge
and the mission which the Gods (GOD) bestowed upon them and as a mark of
gratitude and respect towards the Gods (God) our ancestors gave their word and
oath to the Gods (God), that they and their descendants would never show any
disrespect to the Gods (God) by fulfilling the Gods eternal mission to create a
higher level of civilization for the good of all mankind and to never discard
(give – up) Gods requests and gifts from one generation to the next. Also
to be able to fulfill this mission, our ancestors promised the Gods that they
would devote themselves to a fair, honest / honorable and hard work ethic!
[Επίσης για να μπορούν να εκπληρώσουν την αποστολή αυτή, οι πρόγονοί μας υποσχέθηκαν στους Θεούς ότι πάντα θα έχουν έναν έντιμο, τίμιο και ηθικό τρόπο εργασίας.]
[Επίσης για να μπορούν να εκπληρώσουν την αποστολή αυτή, οι πρόγονοί μας υποσχέθηκαν στους Θεούς ότι πάντα θα έχουν έναν έντιμο, τίμιο και ηθικό τρόπο εργασίας.]
In other words they vowed (promised) to the Gods (GOD) that they
would fulfill Gods requests and to protect, preserve, maintain and pass on
these gifts, to their descendants, to keep for all time.
In other words the Gods (GOD) entered into a covenant (contract)
with the Hellenic people and is understood to be eternal; it cannot be
abrogated because in principle the Gods (GOD) cannot break their promises –
That the covenant endures forever is itself the greatest indicator of the
profound role grace plays in the theology of ancient Hellenism.
For us the Hellenic people,
to turn our backs, to abandon these great gifts of God, to abandon Gods
mission, is to break our word and promise to the Gods (GOD), is to show
disrespect and ungratefulness to the Gods (GOD) and is considered a great (αδικία) - injustice.
For us and our religion it
is the biggest injustice - offense that a Hellene can commit.
{ From this
covenant and through its’ APOKRIFA the Gods are revealing to us that in order
for us to be able to fulfill this mission, to help create a higher
level of civilization for the good of all mankind, we must first of all strive
to become better people ourselves to become more
knowledgeable and to achieve great wisdom. To strive for
our improvement, excellence, perfection and

The Jewish people and Judaeo-Christians believe
that their God Yahweh (Γιαχβέ) punished people for wanting to build the Tower
of Babble to reach Yahweh, by imposing on them many different languages so that
they could not communicate with one another and thus not be able to complete
their so-called sinful task!!
We of the Hellenic National Religion & Honor, believe that all languages are a gift of love by the Gods to all the peoples of the world!!
We of the Hellenic National Religion & Honor, believe that all languages are a gift of love by the Gods to all the peoples of the world!!
* Since we were forced to relinquish our Hellenic religion by
the Christians, we have been divorced from our eternal commitment and covenant
with the Gods to create a higher civilization for the good of mankind and as a
consequence we have drifted into a downward path of a corrupt life with low
morals, principals and values which has resulted in the almost total
destruction of our country and our people.
We have become alienated from “goodness, beauty and
"virtue"!
In turning our backs to the commitment and promise our ancestors
made to the Gods (God), we have committed a very serious crime and offense and
in the process we lost our sense of direction.
It is of vital importance for us to renew our vows to the Gods
(to God) and to once again commit ourselves to the task of creating a higher
civilization for the good of mankind.This is the only way that we can redeem
ourselves and put our country and people on the path of once again becoming a
great nation of people.
QUESTIONS
Should we re- introduce the ancient Greek celebration that
when our children (boys & girls) reach the age of 14, they give during
a special ceremony, the oath that they will always stay true to and be loyal
and dedicated to the Hellenic people and religion and that they will keep their
ancestors vows to God (the Gods).They vow never to turn their backs on the the
Hellenic religion,language,civilization and culture. They promise to
participate and contribute to the creation of a higher civilization for the
good of mankind, and for this celebration to be treated as a very special occasion
for the children whereby we make them feel very special and proud on that day.
We give them a party, family and friends come to pay their respects and we give
them gifts to celebrate their formal induction into the Hellenic religion. We
believe this needs to be acted upon immediately.
ANCIENT GREEK CEREMONY (admission as equal
members of the Hellenic National Religion and the Hellenic family) -
Oath Taking Ceremony - Oath Taking Celebration - (ORKOMOSIA), can be found on
another post in this blog.

The ideal is for,
*a male Hellene to marry a
Hellene female.
*a female Hellene to marry a
Hellene male.
# We explain in other passages
the importance of embracing with love and honesty the aloethnis in a marriage
with a Hellene.
HOLY DUTIES
It is our Hellenic duty for
………………
* It is the duty of all Hellenes to study the written
works of the Spiritual Fathers of the Hellenic Nation and people!
* A HELLENE to always
love/respect a fellow HELLENE.
* It is our duty as Hellenes to
support, help and assist each other at all times.
{Our journey in life is a never
ending challenge, yet it is an enjoyable challenge full of life giving rewards
when we live it to the full with dignity and wisdom as taught to us by our
ancient philosophers, the "Fathers of the Hellenic Nation".
We must not lose sight of the fact that the Greek Orthodox Church
does not, nor has it ever wanted a united Hellenic people other than a unity
which comes under its' umbrella, control and authority!!!
The church in Greece and all around the world (in the Diaspora)
practices the policy of divide and rule, and it is helped by our corrupt
parliamentary politicians in our mother country.
This should not frighten or undermine us, rather the opposite; we
should become more determined in our efforts to promote "Real
Hellenism", co-ordination, co-operation, net working, love and affection
among the Hellenic Diaspora eventually leading to a united Hellenic people.
{A unity founded upon the free will of the Hellenic people!}
* The Hellenic people to be always loyal, good and dedicated
citizens in the country where they reside and live.
*To be loyal and dedicated to
our mother country Hellas, to the Hellenic nation, people,language and culture
– civilization.
*To be always respectful
towards the country of residence and to always respect and obey its laws and to
contribute to the countries growth and progress.
*It is strictly forbidden to
proselytize and to try to attract and to accept other nationalities to our
religion. This is considered a huge transgression.
*The only way a non Hellene may
obtain the Hellenic religion is through marriage to a Hellenic person. However
the non Hellene will first have to do a course on the Hellenic religion and
Hellenic civilization (principles, values, traditions etc.) and then pass a
test.
Also this person will have to
swear an oath that children born to the couple will be brought up with the
Hellenic religion, Hellenic culture, language and tradition. That is the only
way a non Hellene may obtain the Hellenic religion and become a member of the
Hellenic family. In the case of a marriage taking place with a non Hellene
before going through this process the same goal can be achieved, only if the
non Hellene goes through the process mentioned above in terms of, course, test
and oath.
*The priest (IEROFANDIS) is forbidden from being a committee
member of the community they are serving if they are
paid a salary by that community and are also strictly
forbidden to become office – bearers. Apart from their religious duties they
have a duty and obligation to support their community totally, ethically and
morally to the best of their abilities and to help bring people together in a
spirit of love and reconciliation.
*It is strictly forbidden to
have the office bearing positions of Patriarch, Archbishop, Bishop,
Metropolitan or Archmandrite. THESE TERMS ARE FOREIGN TO HELLENISM
*Only one and equal level is
permitted for the clergy. In this way the clergy will symbolize the equal value
that all people have in the eyes of God. The clergy must not symbolize the
superiority of one person over another.
*It is acceptable and
encouraged to have male and female clergy, which must be married, in this way
the clergy will symbolize and represent the family as the foundation upon which
society is built on and will also in parallel symbolize Gods evolution i. e.
that is the continuation of mankind.
CONSTITUTION – STRUCTURE
* WE have a democratic structure.
*A federal structure .
*All the property – wealth to
be owned by the federation.
*General meetings of local
communities and branches to be held on a monthly or bi - monthly
basis to allow for…………
(a) the opportunity for members
to get to know each other better and to be able to create good relations and
friendships.
(b) so that the members may
learn the art of public speaking, patience and discipline.
( c ) so that in this way the
members may be fully informed by the committee on a regular basis and be able
to give directions to the committee, the committee to then put into effect
these directions and in this way all members have the opportunity to fully
participate in the life of their community.
THE COMMITTEE of the local
community branches to organize and conduct all the religious functions and
ceremonies, with the voluntary aid from its members. The committee to organize
all social functions, lectures, fund raising activities and philanthropic
activities also.
TRADITIONS and CELEBRATIONS
* The Hellenic people to be
encouraged to celebrate their birthday as they did in ancient times.
*The Hellenic people to be
encouraged to celebrate their name – day i .e. to celebrate the name they have
been given from a Hellenic philosopher, a Hellenic name from ancient Hellenic history
or Hellenic mythology or a name they have been given to honor one of the
fathers of the Hellenic nation. In this way we show respect to our Hellenic ancestors who made many sacrifices for the Hellenic nation.
We need to re- create national
days of celebration which will honor special occasions and people who made
enormous sacrifices for Hellas and the Hellenic people.
*A day/date which will remind
us of the great sacrifice the ancients made so that we may continue to exist as
a people…............
For example, the battles of ………..
*Marathon 490 B.C.
*Thermopylae 480 B.C.
*Plataies 479 B.C.
*Salamina 480 B.C.
Another day to symbolize the
beginning of the revolution of independence of 1821 A.D.
The 25th of march to symbolize
this occasion and in this way honor all those that gave their lives for modern
Greece and the freedom we now enjoy.
Another day which will remind
us and will be a mark of respect and honor to the thousands of Hellenes who perished
in the genocide during and after the Ottoman Turkish occupation on the
Greek mainland, Aegean islands and Asia minor up to the year 1922 A.D.
This day to remind us of the 400 years of Hellenic slavery under the Ottoman
Turks.
*One different Sunday to honor
and respect one of the Hellenic Gods i.e. 12 Sundays per year for these
celebrations.
*Another symbolic day to
remember and to symbolize the meaning of the cross on the Hellenic flag. Of
course this symbolism to reflect Hellenism and not Christianity. The cross to
symbolize all the tyranny, slavery and martyrdom the Hellenic people suffered
and endured from ancient times up to the year 1922 A.D. Educated people of
knowledge, with courage and conviction are needed to write about the truth and
nothing but the truth regarding this issue.
WE LOVE AND RESPECT THE HELLENIC FLAG AS IT IS AND WE DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE IT IN ANY WAY.
With the following Sundays in the year to celebrate the memory,
wisdom and teachings of the fathers of the Hellenic nation such as ………………..
HOMER, SOLON, THALES,
PYTHAGORAS, ΙΣΟΚΡΑΤΙΣ, ARISTOTLE, SOCRATES, PLATO, PERICLES and many other
special and dignified forefathers. A special catalog of these very special and
important individuals will have to be created.
RELIGIOUS LITURGY ETC.
We need to rediscover all the
hymns and liturgy from ancient times which have survived and to fill in all the
gaps for use every Sunday and other special days mentioned.
Educated people are needed with
a knowledge of the ……………
*Ancient Hellenic language.
*Ancient Hellenic history.
*Ancient Hellenic religion.
*Classic Hellenic civilization.
* With knowledge of the ancient
Greek principles and values are needed to make a contribution to bring back to
life, to help create the modern version of the Hellenic National Religion and
Faith and to assist in creating the much needed Hellenic National ideology. In this way we bring
back to life our own ELLINIKI KAINI DIATHIKI - our own Hellenic Code.
We need to marry the enormous
wealth of knowledge our ancestors left us with the needs of today, for the
Hellenic people to survive, so that we do not become extinct as a race, as a
people. This need is absolutely necessary for Greeks in the Diaspora if they
are to survive as a Hellenic people. The loss in the Diaspora as each day
passes is painfully very high.
Από τους αρχαίους Ελληνικούς χρησμούς και
μαντεία.
Πιστεύουμε, όπως τα μαντεία έχουν αποκαλύψει σε μας ότι οι Θεοί (Ο Θεός) δώρησε στον Ελληνικό Λαό τα μεγάλα δώρα της Ελληνικής ταυτότητας, Ελληνική γλώσσα, το Ελληνικό πνεύμα και σε αντάλλαγμα (ο Θεός) επέλεξε και ζήτησε από τους 'Ελληνες να παραμείνουν για πάντα Έλληνες και να αναλάβουν την πρόκληση και την αποστολή για τη δημιουργία ενός υψηλού επίπεδου πολιτισμού, για το καλό της ανθρωπότητας και να μοιραστούν αυτό τον πολιτισμό με όλους τους ανθρώπους και λαούς του κόσμου.
Ω Θεός (οι Θεοί), ζήτησε επίσης από τον Ελληνικό Λαό να δώσει τον λόγο του εις αυτόν (αυτούς) ότι θα παραμείνουν πάντα 'Ελληνες, και να
υποστηρίζουν πάντα απόλυτα ο ένας τον
άλλον, έτσι ώστε να είναι σε θέση να μπορούν ως 'Ελληνες να
πραγματοποιήσουν την αποστολή των Θεών, και να προστατεύσουν, να διατηρήσουν, και να περάσουν
(κληροδοτήσουν) αυτά τα δώρα, στους απόγονους τους και να τα κρατήσουν για
πάντα ως πολύτιμα της Ελληνικής Φυλής!
Ο Ελληνικός Λαός με προθυμία δέχτηκε την τιμή, την πρόκληση και την αποστολή που
τους παραχωρείσαι ο Θεός (οι Θεοί) και ως ένδειξη ευγνωμοσύνης και σεβασμού απέναντι
τού Θεού οι πρόγονοί μας έδωσαν το λόγο των και τον όρκο των προς τον Θεό όπως
αυτοί και οι απόγονοί τους, ποτέ δεν θα δείξουν καμία έλλειψη σεβασμού προς τον Θεό (Θεούς) και θα εκπληρώσουν την αποστολή του Θεού και ποτέ δεν θα αποβάλουν τα Θεία δώρα από τη μια γενιά στην επομένη.
Με άλλα λόγια ορκιστεί καν προς τον Θεό ότι θα εκπληρώσουν
την εντολή αυτή και ότι θα προστατεύσουν, διαφυλάξουν, διατηρήσουν και ότι θα παραδώσουν αυτά τα δώρα, στους απογόνους τους, να τα κρατήσουν για πάντα.
Με άλλα λόγια, (ο Θεός) τέθηκε σε διαθήκη (σύμβαση) με τον
Ελληνικό Λαό και θεωρείται ότι είναι αιώνια! Δεν μπορεί να καταργηθεί
επειδή κατ 'αρχήν δεν μπορούν οι Θεοί (ο Θεός) να σπάσουν τις υποσχέσεις τους, - το ότι η διαθήκη διαρκεί για πάντα είναι ο δείκτης της, και έχει βαθύ ρόλο και
χάρη στη θεολογία του αρχαίου Ελληνισμού.
{Για εμάς, ως Ελληνικός Λαός, για να γυρίσουμε την πλάτη μας, να εγκαταλείψουμε αυτά τα μεγάλα δώρα του
Θεού, να εγκαταλείψουμε την αποστολή του Θεού, είναι σαν να εγκαταλείπουμε την υπόσχεσή μας προς τον
θεό, είναι σαν να δείχνουμε ασέβεια και αχαριστία προς το Θεό και αυτό
θεωρείται μεγάλο αδίκημα προς τη θεία χάρη!
Για μας και για την θρησκεία μας, είναι το μεγαλύτερο αδίκημα που μπορεί ένας Έλληνας να διαπράξει.}
*Συνεπώς είναι καθήκον μας να ενθαρρύνουμε
όλες τις Ελληνικές κοινότητες και όλους τους Έλληνες σε όλο τον κόσμο να
αγκαλιάσουν τον Ελληνισμό και να επιστρέψουν στην Ελληνική Εθνική θρησκεία των
προγόνων μας.
*Καθώς οι Θεοί (ο Θεός) έκαναν τις
επιθυμίες τους γνωστές σε μας μέσω των χρησμών του μαντείου και την Ελληνική
πατρώα θρησκεία, πιστεύουμε επίσης ότι είναι καθήκον μας να είμαστε πάντα
πιστοί και αφοσιωμένοι στην Ελληνική Εθνική θρησκεία μας.
*Έτσι, μέσω τον χρησμό του μαντείου προς σε
μας τον Ελληνικό λαό, αποκαλύπτεται σε όλους τους λαούς του κόσμου, ότι
όλες οι γλώσσες είναι ένα δώρο από τον Θεό (από τους θεούς). Συνεπώς, είναι
καθήκον όλων των λαών να εκτιμούν με σεβασμό, αγάπη και στοργή την αντίστοιχη
γλώσσα τους.
Ο Εβραϊκός λαός και η Εβραίο-Χριστιανοί
πιστεύουν ότι ο Θεός τους (ο Γιαχβέ) τιμωρείσαι τους ανθρώπους για την προσπάθεια τους να οικοδομήσουν τον Πύργο της Βαβέλ για να φθάσουν
τον Γιαχβέ, επιβάλλοντας τους
πολλές διαφορετικές γλώσσες, έτσι ώστε να μην μπορούν να επικοινωνούν μεταξύ
τους και ως εκ τούτου να μην είναι σε θέση για να ολοκληρώσουν το λεγόμενο
αμαρτωλό έργο τους!
Εμείς της Ελληνικής Εθνικής Θρησκείας & Τιμή, πιστεύουμε ότι όλες οι γλώσσες είναι ένα δώρο αγάπης από τους Θεούς σε όλους τους λαούς του κόσμου!
Εμείς της Ελληνικής Εθνικής Θρησκείας & Τιμή, πιστεύουμε ότι όλες οι γλώσσες είναι ένα δώρο αγάπης από τους Θεούς σε όλους τους λαούς του κόσμου!
Από αυτή την διαθήκη και μέσω τα " ΑΠΌΚΡΥΦΑ" της, οι Θεοί μας φανερώνουν ότι, προκειμένου για μας, για να είμαστε σε θέση να εκπληρώσουμε την αποστολή αυτή , για να δημιουργήσουμε ένα υψηλότερο επίπεδο πολιτισμού για το καλό όλης της ανθρωπότητας , θα πρέπει πρώτα από όλα να προσπαθήσουμε να γίνουμε καλύτερη άνθρωποι, να γίνουμε πιο γνώστες και να αποκτήσουμε μεγαλήτερη σοφία .
Να κάνουμε προσπάθεια για τη βελτίωση μας , στην αριστεία και την αρετή, σε όλα τα "ανθρώπινα επιτεύγματα" .
Για τα παιδιά μας, το μήνυμα από τα ΑΠΌΚΡΥΦΑ είναι ότι θα πρέπει να προσπαθήσουν να γίνουν άριστοι μαθητές και φοιτητές, αφιερωμένη στην οικογένεια και την κοινότητά τους . Να επιδιώκουν την πειθαρχία, αξιοπρέπεια και τον αυτοσεβασμό, να συμμετέχουν και να συμβάλουν όλο και περισσότερο στα κοινά καθήκοντα και θέματα τις κοινωνίας τους, καθώς μεγαλώνουν και γίνονται πιο σοβαρή & σοφότεροι !
* Από
τη στιγμή που αναγκαστήκαμε να εγκαταλείψουμε την Ελληνική Εθνική θρησκεία μας
από τους χριστιανούς, έχουμε πάρει διαζύγιο από την αιώνια δέσμευση και
συμβόλαιο μας με τους Θεούς για τη δημιουργία ενός ανώτερου πολιτισμού για το
καλό της ανθρωπότητας και ως εκ τούτου έχουμε παρασυρθεί σε μια καθοδική πορεία
μιας διεφθαρμένης ζωής με χαμηλό ήθος, αρχές και αξίες που έχει ως αποτέλεσμα
τη σχεδόν ολοκληρωτική καταστροφή της χώρας και του λαού μας.
Αποξενωθήκαμε από το "κάλλος" και
την "αρετή" !
Γυρίζοντας την πλάτη μας, στη δέσμευση
και την υπόσχεση των προγόνων μας προς στους Θεούς (το Θεό),
έχουμε διαπράξει ένα πολύ σοβαρό έγκλημα και αδίκημα και στη διαδικασία χάσαμε
την αίσθηση της κατεύθυνσης μας.
Είναι ζωτικής σημασίας για μας να
ανανεώσουμε τους όρκους μας προς τους Θεούς (το Θεό), και για άλλη μια φορά να
δεσμευτούμε στο έργο της δημιουργίας ενός ανώτερου πολιτισμού για το καλό
της ανθρωπότητας. Αυτός είναι ο μόνος τρόπος που μπορούμε να αποκαταστήσουμε
τους εαυτούς μας και να θέσουμε τη χώρα και το λαό μας στην πορεία ώστε για μια
ακόμη φορά να γίνουμε ένα σπουδαίο έθνος.

Ten
Ways to happiness that were taught by the ancient Hellenes
As
Epicurus believed, man is something great and worthy. Happiness and bliss, he
has within him, as long as he puts to one side all that bothers him and makes
his life hell. Here our forefathers give us 10 small but valuable lessons for
our happiness!
1.
Do everything with love!
We
live with feelings, not with the hours on the sundial. We should measure time
with the beats of the heart.
Aristotle.
Love
is the cause of unity of all things
Aristotle.
2.
Embrace the challenges and learn from them
As
says the ancient maxim: "Live the present and forget the past." The
challenges are always a chance for something new. Even the "NO -
rejection" may be a new move for a new direction. The biggest obstacle in
our lives, is ourselves.
"Small
opportunities are often the beginning of major projects."
Demosthenes.
3.
Believe in yourself, listen to yourself and do not take too seriously what
others tell you.
Nobody
knows yourself better than you know yourself. And no one your children. You
will meet a lot of people who will not share the same ideas, the same views and
the same vision with you, in terms of parenting. There will be many that will
give you free advice in life as how to be a mother or father. Listen without
judging them and follow what your heart tells you.
"He
who knows how to listen benefits even from those who talk badly."
Plutarch
"Learn
to be silent, allow the mind to have some peace and quiet so it can listen and
absorb."
Pythagoras.
4.
Dream of what you want, not what you do not want
It
is important to dream, to have big dreams and to never stop dreaming. But to
always hope for the best
"Do
not spend what you have, wishing for that that you do not have. Remember that
what you have now, is something that you once dreamed to acquire. "
Epicurus.
5.
Never give up and never lose your faith
Replace
fear with hope. Humility, or love and faith, can do wonders. And they will all
happen at the right moment and the right time.
"There
is nothing" great "that is suddenly created ... even a bunch of
grapes takes time to bloom, to bear fruit and ripen ..."!
Epictikos.
6. Always think and "feel" positive
Positive thinking is a creation of the ancient Greeks. Always
focus on the present and the reasons why you rejoice! Remove and distance from
your lives negative people and always be sure to be surrounded by people with
positive energy. And as our respected ancestors say:
"Medical cures are linked with the substance of the mind '
Hippocrates.
"Happiness depends upon ourselves"
Aristotle.
7. Search within yourself for the answers
Thought and introspection always helps us to find the right
solution when we feel confused
"What we can achieve from inside us will change our outer
reality."
Plutarch.
8. The difficult situations we face make us more courageous
"Our courage is not seen during our everyday happy
relationships, but in life's challenges and adversity"
Epicurus.
9. Do not resist your destiny
"No one can escape his destiny "
Plato
"In each of us there are three virtues: Prudence, strength
and good luck"
Ion of Chios
10. See your mistakes as a positive and as experiences that will
move in the direction of your dreams.
"He who strives for more makes the most mistakes"
And thus learns the most from these.
Euripides
............................................................................................
The orthodox Christian religion has stolen much from the ancient
Greek religion and civilization to give meaning to its original inadequate
philosophy. What has been plagiarized ? What do we want to take back ?
GREEK PHILOSOPHY GAVE
CHRISTIANITY THE DIGNITY IT NEVER HAD!
The early Christian followers
and the later-day church fathers, plagiarized from the writings of the ancient
Greek philosophers such as Homer, Plato, Aristotle, Socrates and others. They
“re-worded” the “teachings, principles and values” that these philosophers
espoused and attributed their “teachings-principles and values” to Jesus, his
disciples and to the later created saints of the Christian religion.
Judaism, Islam and
Christianity are founded on lies, fear, blind faith and false promises!
The Jewish apostle Paul
(Saul) spoke fluent Greek and thoroughly studied Greek philosophy. Paul was the
biggest plagiarizer the world has ever known!
Άγιοι είναι μια χριστιανική δημιουργία!
Saints are a Christian creation!
«Την Υπέρμαχο» είναι δικός μας ελληνικός ύμνος!!
Αγαπητοί μου φίλοι της Ελληνικής Εθνικής Θρησκείας, είναι
καιρός να πάρουμε πίσω ό,τι μας ανήκει.
Πρώτα από όλα είναι ο ύμνος που οι Χριστιανοί αποκαλούν
«Την Υπέρμαχο».....Αγαπητοί μου φίλοι αυτός ο ύμνος είναι καθαρά ελληνικός και
αναφέρεται στη θεά μας Αθηνά.
Οι Χριστιανοί το έκλεψαν και το ερμήνευσαν στα δικά τους
πρότυπα ώστε να έχει ένα χριστιανικό μήνυμα.
Πρέπει οπωσδήποτε να το ερμηνεύσουμε με τις δικές μας
αρχές και αξίες, να το επαναφέρουμε στην πραγματική του μορφή με το πολύ όμορφο
και αληθινό νόημα και συμβολισμό του.
Εμείς οι ασκούμενοι της Ελληνικής Εθνικής Θρησκείας
πρέπει να μάθουμε τα λόγια αυτού του ωραιότερου Ελληνικού ύμνου που είναι
αφιερωμένος στη Θεά μας Αθηνά και πρέπει όλοι μαζί να τον τραγουδάμε στις
κατάλληλες περιστάσεις.
...............................................
"Tin Υpermacho" is ours; it is a
Hellenic hymn and anthem!!
My dear
friends of the Hellenic Ethnic Religion, it is time to take back all that
belongs to us.
First of all
is the hymn that Christians call "Tin Ypermacho".....My dear friends
this hymn is purely Hellenic and refers to our Goddess Athena.
The
Christians stole it and interpreted it to their own standards so that it has a
Christian message.
We must
definitely interpret it with our own principles and values; bring it back to
its true form with its very beautiful and true meaning and symbolism.
We the adherents
of the Hellenic Ethnic Religion must learn the words to this most beautiful
Hellenic hymn which is dedicated to our Goddess Athena and we must all together
sing it on the appropriate occasions.
.............................................
NEW YEARS “THARGILOS ARTOS” ..... Θάργηλος άρτος
"The cutting of the “Vassilopita” is one of the few ancient
traditions that survive. Our Folkloric scholars discover the root of this
custom in ancient Greek tradition. The ancient Greeks offered to the Gods at
every major juncture of their lives ‘festive bread’ ... OF COURSE IT WAS NOT
THEN CALLED A VASILOPITA!..............In ancient times it was called “Θάργηλος άρτος”
Today in the Hellenic tradition of the Hellenic National Religion
we still practice this tradition on the first day of the New Year.
We now call it the New Years Thargilos Artos....Θάργηλος άρτος. A coin is placed in the “Artos” before
baking.
At midnight just when we have entered the New Year or just before
lunch on the same day, we express our thanks to the Gods for blessing us with the
ability to safely complete the year we had just left behind!
We also pay homage and express our thanks to the Gods for allowing
us the good fortune of seeing in the New Year!
The head of the family then proceeds to cut the “New Years
Thargilos Artos”.
The first piece is offered to the Gods as a thanks giving symbolic
gesture……this also symbolizes the sharing of bread together with the Gods.
The other pieces of bread are distributed to all those present.
The person who is fortunate to find the coin in their piece of
bread is considered to have been bestowed with luck and good fortune
and as having also being bestowed a great honor!
For this person for the next 12 months is expected to be a good
role model citizen in the community. They will have the duty and
honor to strive for excellence and virtue in their daily lives
and by their good deeds set an example for their community and family members!
HELLENIC PRINCIPLES and VALUES
The following principles
and values are of the most important in the Hellenic National Religion
and Honor-Faith:
* The 147 Delphic Maxims
(Commandments)
* The 40 Phrases of Democritus
* The Ten Commandments of Solon
(founder of Athenian democracy)
*The 10 Phrases of Socrates
* 10 Ways to happiness that were taught by the ancient
Hellenes
SOLONS 10 COMMANDMENTS
1. Trust good character more
than promises.
2. Do not speak falsely.
3. Do good things.
4. Do not be hasty in making
friends, but do not abandon them once made.
5. Learn to obey before you
command.
6. When giving advice, do not
recommend what is most pleasing, but what is most useful.
7. Make reason your supreme
commander.
8. Do not associate with people
who do bad things.
9. Honor the gods.
10. Have regard for your
parents.
* Should we also include the Pericles funeral oration and many
other jewels from our ancient philosophers?
From ancient times we Hellenes
believed and still believe that people should be concerned in matters of
society. We believed and still believe that we all have a duty and obligation
to participate and make a contribution to society. We should not only take, but
put back into society. As a people we always had values which had to do with
"duties and obligations" etc.
These values we still hold true
today. We believe that the Hellenes of Hellas and the Hellenes in the Diaspora
must remain true to all of the above. We also believe that the Hellenic people
should participate and contribute to the political life of the country they
live in. We believe they should become active members of a political party of
their choice. In no way should Hellenic people who are members of a particular
party or supporters of that party promote hatred against Hellenic people who
are members or supporters of the opposing political party. Rather they should
have respect, love and friendship, understanding, co-ordination and co-operation
between them so that they can achieve all their goals. Only in this way can we
give the correct example to our children, only in this way can we win the
attention and respect from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation. Only in this way
can we have Hellenic success. We must find a way of incorporating these principles
and values into the Hellenic National Religion and Honour.
LIVING A CONSTRUCTIVE HELLENIC LIFE
When we use our mental,
emotional and physical resources wisely and carefully, based on our needs
rather than desires, we are able to fulfill our responsibility as trustees of
our earth.
Practicing compassion,
forgiveness and unconditional love for the self and others, enables us to heal
our sometimes shattered society.
Putting an end to negative and
wasteful thinking and using the power of the mind in a positive way is the
foundation for transforming our Cosmos – Κόσμος
Recognizing the uniqueness,
wonder and beauty of our own being (know thyself ) – autognosίa -
αυτογνωσία- to know oneself, to recognize our shortcomings, our
strengths and weaknesses enables us to treat ourselves, others, animals and
nature with consideration and care.
Με την αυτογνωσία φερόμαστε ταχύτερα και σταθερότερα στην γνώση και στη
μάθηση,των οποίων την ακρότατη βαθμίδα κατέχει η απροσπέλαση για τον άνθρωπο
Σοφία.Φτάνουμε στη δυνατή γαλήνη και ηρεμία πνεύματος και ψυχής,προϋποθέσεων
της ευτυχίας.Οδηγούμαστε με την ηθική διαβίωση,στην τελείωση και στην
αγιότητα,τον μοναδικό αλλά και ύψιστο σκοπό της γήινης ύπαρξης του ανθρώπου. ( Πυθαγόρα 580 - 500 π.χ. )
With knowledge of oneself we
guide ourselves faster and more stable on the road to knowledge and learning,
which holds the outer tier or inaccessible wisdom. We reach the most possible
peace and quiet of spirit and
soul which is a condition to healthy living and happiness - Eudemonia/Ευδαιμονία.We are guided in the moral life of perfection and holiness, which is the highest aim of existence of man on Earth.. (Pythagoras 580-500 BC)
soul which is a condition to healthy living and happiness - Eudemonia/Ευδαιμονία.We are guided in the moral life of perfection and holiness, which is the highest aim of existence of man on Earth.. (Pythagoras 580-500 BC)
When we remain true to our
inner values – προσωπικές αξειες- and follow our God (Gods) given conscience,
despite resistance from others, our actions bring benefit to many.
Realizing that we (our souls in
union with the energy &power of nature –in union with GOD) are the
creators of our own world, and that we always have a choice as to how we deal
with the challenges of life, brings a sense of freedom and responsibility,
which gives us the faith and courage to make a difference.
Living a healthy lifestyle
(healthy body & healthy mind), eating healthy food, cooked with
love, nourishes our whole being and allows us to contribute in a positive way
to our community, to our fellow man and to society.
The more powerful and positive
our vision of the future, the more likely we are to achieve it.
Spending time alone
,communicating with God(s), in silent prayer, or meditation, gives us the inner
strength and wisdom to deal with life in a more positive and peaceful way.
All people, if they follow the
truth of their soul, have unlimited power to fulfill their dreams and achieve
their individual fulfillment.
Ολοι οι άνθρωποι,εάν ακολουθήσουν την αλήθεια της ψυχής τούς,έχουν απεριόριστη δύναμη να εκπληρώσουν τα όνειρα τους και να επιτύχουν την ατομική τους ολοκλήρωση.
We are not the descendants of
Adam and Eve, and maybe (however the writer is of the view we are not) we are
not the descendants of Abraham, we are not the children of Moses Isaac, Sara,
Rebbecca or Jacob as we are brainwashed into believing by the “Greek orthodox
church”, our mother country is not Israel, our mother country is Hellas, the
Hellenic Republic of Greece. We are the children of Deukaliona and Pirra.
We are the descendants, of
Homer, Pausanias, Isocrates, Aristotle, Plato, Socrates, Pythagoras and many
other forefathers of great wisdom.
We
must find a way to achieve all the above that has been stated in this document.
It is most important that we do so if we wish to remain relevant as a people !
We need to achieve all the above if we wish to survive as a Hellenic people !
We
must do all we can so that we do not become extinct as a people. We owe it to
ourselves, we owe it to our ancestors and we have a duty to keep our
word
(
promise ) to God.
This
is the only reason that this document has come into existence. What we do know
with certainty is that many Hellenes in the Diaspora are lost daily and we need
to take action to reverse this trend. We have a duty and obligation to try
everything to achieve this goal. Our refusal will surely bring about our demise
and extinction as a people in the Diaspora. We need to create now, not tomorrow
a national Hellenic ideological foundation which we can build upon, our hopes
and salvation as a people. We need to discover our own golden formula which
will help us to preserve and maintain our race.
A
nation (ethnos- εθνος) which does not teach its children its real history, its
suffering and its glorious achievements. If it does not plant knowledge, love
and affection for its forefathers is condemned to failure and extinction.
Unfortunately this is what we are doing! It is time we started teaching through
our religion the true Hellenic ideology, Hellenic history and civilization to
our children! How will they learn to love the motherland and be proud of their
identity if we keep on teaching them through Christian religious tuition,
everything about a foreign people and country?
Unfortunately it is almost impossible to receive the necessary assistance from Greece as many learned people tell us that the renaissance and enlightenment has yet to reach the shores of our beloved mother country.
Δυστυχώς είναι αδύνατον να λάβομε την κατάλληλη
βοήθεια από την πατρίδα, διότι όπως ισχυρίζονται πολλοί άνθρωποι των γραμμάτων,
η αναγέννηση και ο διαφωτισμός ποτέ δεν έφτασε στην σύγχρονη Ελλάδα.
We
welcome all the Hellenes around the world,
who
love Greece, Hellenism and the Hellenic spirit to organize themselves into
working groups and to study, research and to make a contribution to the revival
and resurrection of the Hellenic religion.
We
encourage all to read the book titled “The Holocaust of the Hellenes “(Τό
Ολοκαύτωμα του Ελληνισμού) By Gerasimos Kalogerakis.
«Ζήτω το Εθνος των Ελλήνων!» Long live the Hellenic People!
Ζήτω
όλη η ανθρωπότητα! Long live all the People of The World (Cosmos). Hellenism=
Hellenic National Religion and Honor.
Our
Hellenic Religion is founded on love. We believe in God i.e. the power and
energy of nature&; through evolution over time created the World ,
Solar System, Universe and all the Universes. We believe this evolution was/is
a work of love, a labor of love, a creation of love by our (Gods) God. We
therefore believe that all that God wants from us humans is to love, preserve
and maintain everything that God created , and to take that love to its natural
conclusion in all matters. It is therefore our duty to:- • Love and respect our
fellow human beings. • Love, protect, preserve and maintain the Plant Kingdom.
• Love, protect, preserve, and maintain the Animal Kingdom. • Love, protect,
preserve and maintain our planet Earth, our home for future generations. •
Love, protect, preserve and maintain our identity, language, and
civilization-culture, given/gifted to us by God and pass it on to future
generations. We Hellenes believe only when we search within ourselves and by
our own volition discover that inner-love that we all have , only when we
discover this love that has been gifted to us by God , we can achieve peace of
mind and reach a high spiritual level of existence which gives us true freedom
to be useful to ourselves , to our families , to our communities , to society
in general and to the Hellenic Nation. Only when we discover our own inner love
can we grow and reach our full potential in life.

• Organ donations and
transplants to save lives and to improve the health of the sick providing high

respected so that no crimes are committed.
WE BELIEVE
The family is the foundation
stone of society.
The family is the foundation
stone of a country and nation.
The family is the foundation
stone of civilization.
By destroying the family, we
destroy everything.
WE BELIEVE: -
* that all people are blessed when they are born with a soul that
is a gift from the Divine, and our soul is our partner throughout our lives.
* When we die,
our souls go on to the Elysian Fields,
from there they become embedded with the
Gods, they become one with the Gods and will continue with the eternal energy and power of the LAWS THAT GOVERN AND CONTROL the Universe preserve, maintain and create through evolution all things and gradually over time our souls will return to
earth as new born humans.
In the Hellenic tradition we believe in reincarnation.
In the Hellenic tradition we believe in reincarnation.
When we return to the
Gods and become embodied and one with the Gods we reach the highest spiritual level
possible and we attain infinite - eternal life, everlasting love and happiness
where there is no pain, sorrow, grief or suffering!
* Όταν πεθαίνουμε, οι ψυχές μας πηγαίνουν στα Ελευσίνια
πεδία, μετά από εκεί ενσωματώνονται με τους Θεούς, γίνονται ένα με τους Θεούς
και συνεχίζουν με την αιώνια ενέργεια
και δύναμη των ΝΟΜΩΝ ΠΟΥ ΔΙΕΥΘΥΝΟΥΝ ΚΑΙ
ΕΛΕΓΧΟΥΝ το Σύμπαν, την διατήρηση και δημιουργούν
μέσα από την εξέλιξη όλα τα πράγματα και σταδιακά με την πάροδο του χρόνου οι
ψυχές μας επιστρέφουν στη γη ως νέοι
γεννημένοι άνθρωποι.
Στην Ελληνική παράδοση πιστεύουμε στη μετενσάρκωση.
(We do not believe as in Judaism and its two children, namely
"Christianity" and "Islam" that we are brought before an
all powerful God for judgment, to decide whether we go to "Heaven" or
are condemned to an everlasting burning "Hell").
We Believe:
• That males and females are
treated with respect and as equals, that all human beings are also treated with
respect.
• In the freedom of the
individual, in freedom of expression and the freedom of assembly.
• In the separation of Religion
and State.
• We strongly believe in the
institution and implementation of democratic values and principles in the
administration of government, religious and or community organizations. This is
part of the tradition and values of Hellenic life and must be totally respected
in all cases. Dictatorship of any kind is anathema to the Hellenic Spirit
and is considered a huge transgression (crime - offense) in our religion.
The Roman Catholic Church
and the Greek Orthodox Church are founded on (amongst other principals and
values) the dictatorship of the clergy!
AND
The people(laity) to be the servants - modern day slaves, who work hard, provide all the money (contributions)and the clergy have all the governing power to make all the decisions and issue orders!
The people(laity) to be the servants - modern day slaves, who work hard, provide all the money (contributions)and the clergy have all the governing power to make all the decisions and issue orders!
Most of the clergy and in
particular, not all, but the majority of the bishops and archbishops are very
corrupt. They are only interested in :-
POWER !!! POWER!!! POWER!!!
MONEY !!! MONEY !!! MONEY !!!
STATUS !!! PRESTIGE !!! and
PRIVILEGES !!!!!
for themselves.
We
believe:
FUNERAL
ORATION
From
ancient times, at the funeral of a loved one it was the tradition to honour the
departed one with a speech (a funeral oration) that celebrated and paid respect
to his or her life, the good deeds, the achievements and the contributions of
the departed one.
This
is and has been for thousands of years an obligation by those that have
survived the deceased and a right of the departed ones in the Hellenic
tradition.
It
is strictly forbidden for anyone
to deny these rights and obligations to be carried out in the
Temple (or outdoors) at a funeral service. It is considered an enormous
crime and offense to do so by the teachings of the Hellenic National
Religion & Honor and the Hellenic tradition.
ΕΠΙΚΉΔΕΙΟΣ ΛΟΓΟΣ
Από τα αρχαία χρόνια, στην κηδεία ενός αγαπημένου
προσώπου ήταν η παράδοση προς τιμήν του κεκοιμημένων με μία ομιλία (επικήδειος
λόγος) που καταβάλλονταν ως προς τη γιορτή και ζωή του εκλιπόντος,
αναγνωρίζοντας και τιμώντας τις καλές πράξεις του, τα κατορθώματα του και της
συνεισφορές των κεκοιμημένων προς την οικογένεια του, τους συνανθρώπους του και
την πολιτεία.
Αυτό είναι και υπήρξε για χιλιάδες χρόνια η
υποχρέωση από εκείνους που έχουν επιβιώσει του αποβιώσαντος και το δικαίωμα
αυτών που έχουν αναχώρηση, σύμφωνα με την ελληνική παράδοση.
Απαγορεύεται αυστηρά για οποιονδήποτε να αρνηθεί
αυτά τα δικαιώματα και τις υποχρεώσεις που πρέπει να πραγματοποιηθούν στο Ναό σε
νεκρώσιμη ακολουθία. Θεωρείται τεράστιο έγκλημα και αδίκημα να
το πράξει αυτό οποιοσδήποτε, σύμφωνα με τις διδασκαλίες της Ελληνικής Εθνικής
Θρησκείας και Τιμής, και την ελληνική παράδοση.
• We
believe it is the duty of all Hellenes to encourage other Ethnic Hellenes to
return to the fold, to convert back to Hellenism. We do not believe
people should be forced to do so. This is strictly forbidden by
our religion.

SYMBOLISM and
CONCEPT of the Hellenic Flag
Symbolism and concept of the ancient Greek cross
For followers of the National
Hellenic Religion & Honour
FIRST
The Greek
Cross (an ancient Greek symbol), which is represented as a simple and upright
isosceles cross, is considered as one of the three most ancient forms of the
cross (together with the Saltire and the Sun Cross). It symbolizes the four
elements of nature (earth, water, air, fire) in equilibrium and stability. By
extension, it is a symbol of the harmony of nature. It also symbolizes the four
cardinal points. Finally, it symbolizes the relationship of the Divine
(vertical axis) with the World (horizontal axis).
In
conclusion, we see that as humans "matured" spiritually through the
ages, they analyzed the symbol of the cross further and linked it with higher
philosophical and theological concepts: The vertical axis was associated with
the Heavens, spiritualism, strength and the male element. The horizontal axis
was associated with the Earth, sensitivity, logic and the female element. It
became the symbol of life, fertility, immortality, the four seasons, the four
elements of nature, the four winds and the four cardinal directions, of the
balance between matter and spirit, of the duality of nature and the harmonious
union of opposite (but not opposing) Forces, as well as of creation.
SECOND
The cross on the Hellenic Flag
of THE HELLENIC REPUBLIC reminds us of the enormous pain and suffering of the
Hellenic People from the middle of the 4th century A.D. up to the year 1922
A.D.
It reminds us of the brutal
torture holocaust and genocide which was inflicted on the Hellenic people
throughout the Christian Eastern Roman Empire (coined Byzantium by a french
journalist in the 19th century) by the orders and instructions of the various
Roman Emperors {over many centuries} and establishment and was carried out by
Roman soldiers and hoards of Christian clergy and their brainwashed Christian
flock. Millions of Hellenes were murdered and their possessions and
wealth was confiscated and passed on to the Christian Church, all because they
refused to abandon their Hellenic religion and convert to Christianity.
Over the same period throughout the empire the Hellenic Temples of worship were
destroyed and demolished and Christian churches with the same materials were
built in their place. Libraries were burnt to the ground, statues and works of
art were destroyed, theaters and philosophical schools of education were
demolished and outlawed.
The Olympic Games were banned;
the theater, sports-athletics, singing and dancing were also forbidden. The
Christians did all they could to bring about the extinction of the Hellenic people,
Hellenic Civilization and the
Hellenic Spirit. The cross symbolizes and reminds us of that attempt to totally
wipe (genocide) out the Hellenic People.
The cross also reminds us of
the 400 years of brutal enslavement of the Hellenic People by the
Turkish Ottoman Empire and the
genocide of the Hellenic People in mainland Greece, the Aegean islands and Asia
Minor carried out by them and their successors up to the year 1922 A.D.
It is estimated that between
500,000 to one million Greeks alone in Anatolia were viciously wiped out
by the Turks between 1914 to 1919 in the "Turkish Genocide of the Greek,
Armenian and Assyrian populations".
Most of the unspeakable above
was carried out by people whose religion like that of some African tribes, who
believed in making human sacrifices to their God, in this case the human
sacrifice of a man called JESUS, who was a loyal patriotic Hebrew (Jew) and a
REVOLUTIONARY whose only crime was to speak out publicly against the Hebrew
Establishment - traitors – Rulers - of that time who were in collaboration with
the barbaric Roman occupiers of his country, Israel and who wanted to free his
people and country from foreign occupation - He was definitely no God.
JESUS was a political -
religious - revolutionary (cult figure) of his time.He and his followers (in
particular the people that wrote the various bibles) plagiarized an
enormous amount of their material from ancient Greek philosophy -religion and
civilization, also the church fathers of the various Ecumenical Councils did
the same.In their deliberations they added, subtracted, molded and re-molded
the christian philosophy (story) in order to create the Christianity the church
teaches today.
The New Testament over the first few hundred years was written, re written and changed and re-molded many times. Many passages were omitted, changed, overhauled and many new ones were made up and included in order to create the Christianity the Church teaches today.

The blue stripes on the flag
symbolize the clear blue waters surrounding our land and the white stripes
symbolize the white waves which lovingly caress its shores.
The nine (9) stripes in total
symbolize the word - eleutheria- (Ελευθερια ) –Freedom- and the nine letters in
its spelling.
This comes from the great cry
of Freedom or Death which was chanted by the brave warriors during the
revolutionary war of Independence against the Ottoman Turkish occupiers.
To bring about change, great
courage is needed as expressed in this speech by a great leader of the 21st century.
Our deepest fear is not that
we are inadequate
Our deepest fear is that we are
powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our
darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who I am to
be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous ?
Actually who are you not to be
? You are a child of God.
Your being small doesn’t serve
the world.
There is nothing enlightened
about shrinking
so that people will not be
insecure around you.
We are born to make manifest
the glory of God that is within us.
It is within everyone.
And as we let our own light
shine,
We unconsciously give others
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our
fear,
Our presence automatically
liberates others !
It’s time we Hellenes found the
great courage to liberate ourselves from this foreign religion which was forced
on us at great cost of Hellenic lives. It’s time we liberated ourselves and our
children from this inferiority complex we have about ourselves as a people,
because of the false ideology and false history and foreign traditions which
are forced on us by the “Greek” orthodox church and the Hellenic Educational
Ministry !
The following is an excerpt
of Aeschylus, where Aeschylus urges Greeks to fight bravely to save their
country from the Persians.
The quote in free
translation says:
''Children of the Greeks, run to free your homes, your children and your wives and your customs and traditions ( ie. the gods and your faith )
for now, above all excels struggle''!
''Children of the Greeks, run to free your homes, your children and your wives and your customs and traditions ( ie. the gods and your faith )
for now, above all excels struggle''!
This Christian church has been
exploiting the Hellenic nation, has been sucking the blood of the Hellenic
people for the last 1700 years. It’s time we found the courage to break the
chains of bondage and to say enough is enough. It’s time we once again became
masters of our own destiny.
Long before Christianity
appeared on the horizon we were the leading light, building great monuments
such as the Parthenon and we lead in the fields of astronomy, medicine,
architecture, science, art, theater, music, sport and democracy. It is our
forefathers that laid the foundations of civilization as we know it today. We
have every reason to be proud of our forefathers of, our own Hellenic
civilization, of our own Hellenic religion which guided us on the road to
achieving these great deeds. We wrote thousands of books, recording much
knowledge of great value to mankind. We built great libraries to house these
books and to make them accessible and available to all people.
The only people known in history
to systematically burn down libraries and books were the Nazis and Christians.
The Old Testament was
translated into the Hellenic language approx. 250 to 300 B.C. by 70 Hellenic
speaking Jews.
The first followers of Jesus were Jews and the first Christians were therefore Jewish. Many historians believe that the great Hellenic library of Alexandria was burnt down (totally destroyed) by these Christian Jews.
In later years it was this Christian Jewish movement that infiltrated and penetrated the Roman establishment, influenced and convinced the Roman emperors to establish Christianity as the official religion of the Empire.
It was this Christian Jewish movement which convinced the Roman establishment to strike out and totally destroy the Hellenic National Religion and Hellenic Civilization.

The Judaeo/Christian religion,
Jehovah's witnesses,Muslims and others were and are religiously
diametrically opposed to Hellenism i.e. Hellenic theology !
Why we Hellenes do not believe
in the God of the Christians, Jews, Jehovah's witnesses and Muslims ?
Why we Hellenes do not believe
in the God of the Old Testament ?
To better understand this, we
must first examine what orders, directions and advice this God gave to His chosen
people.
Only then can we confirm with
certainty that this God has nothing in common with the God (Gods) of the
Hellenic People.
SOME MORAL CODES ARE CRUEL
As a primary school teacher and
parent , I welcome Christian education in state schools. As long as it’s taught
thoroughly. The perception of the Christian faith has left many people with the
notion of the Christian God as a benevolent supernatural force,hoping we do
good, punishing us when we do bad. The God of the Bible (Old Testament)
is more than that:-
It will do the students good to
dip into the Old Testament and learn of God’s many genocides and sending of
plagues and disasters. They will learn how He encourages slavery, abuse of
women, rape, murder, and slaughter of animals. Students will learn they were
born evil, and that without abandoning rational inquiry and bowing down before
the Christian God they will be tortured for eternity.
The moral codes enshrined in
the Christian Bible (Old Testament) are cruel, and not what our modern society is
founded upon.
Aristides P. Diamandopoulos
Is the Christian God willing to
prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then where does evil come from ?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?
When I became convinced that
the universe is natural, that the god of the old and new testament is a myth,
there entered into my brain, into my soul, into every drop of my blood the
sense, the feeling, the joy of freedom. The walls of my prison crumbled and
fell. The dungeon was flooded with light and all the bolts and bars and
manacles became dust....

General and political questions.
What is the aim of the Hellenic National Religion & Honor-Faith ?
We seek the moral support of our own people, as well as the re-establishment of the true native, polytheistic Hellenic tradition, religion and way of living in modern Greek society, which is ruled by the Byzantium (Eastern Roman Empire) of an Orthodox Church with which Hellenism is irreconcilable.
We strive by all legal means available to familiarize the Hellenic people with the need to respect, preserve, and protect, both morally and literally, their heritage. To facilitate the restoration and elevate our monuments, symbols, ideals and living forms of our Traditions to their rightful place. Whilst taking into account the universal significance, cultural and philosophical values of the Hellenic National religion - fine arts, customs, values, language, mythology, symbolism, literature etc."
We are based on a foundation of goodwill and motivation. We strive for the cooperation not only of individuals but of already organized groups, to produce a valid and generally applicable collective approach to modern Greek reality.
We would like to see the establishment of new movements in every corner of Hellas and the Hellenic speaking world !
Why do you refer to yourselves as 'Ethnikoi' - Nationalist-
In general, the term Ethnikos refers to those who live and conduct themselves in accordance with their native identity and values. A more specific definition refers to those who do not reject their identity, due to conversion to one of the introduced monotheistic creeds (viz. Christianity and Islam).
Judaism, the parent of the above mentioned faiths, refers to all non-Jews as Goyim (gentiles) - (beasts). This term was mistranslated by the Alexandrian interpreters of the Septuagint as 'ta Ethnoi' (the nations) or 'hoi Ethnikoi', in Greek and 'Gentiles' in Latin. We elevate and purify the term by 'returning' it to its original meaning. Hence, maintaining the differences it implies between us and the followers of the Abrahamic faiths and their associated values.
The word 'Hellene' should suffice to describe what we refer to as 'Ethnikoi (Nationalist) Hellenes'. Unfortunately, this term has been denigrated and improperly used in identifying the majority Christian Orthodox subjects of a State that uses the adjective 'Hellenic' in violation of its initial meaning.
What do you think you will achieve by returning to the Ancient Ways in today's society?
We do not just strive for a superficial return to the 'ancient ways', but on the contrary, for the return of a different kind of person, Hellenic Man, who will be governed by humanistic values, as were first expressed and exhibited by our ancestors. A type of man who will journey on the path of Virtue.
We struggle for the humanization of today's savage society, based on eternal Hellenic values and principles that lead man to the creation of civilization, spiritual cultivation, wide-ranging interests and tolerance. This will make him a worthy companion of the Gods.
Today more than ever, humanity, which has been trapped with few available exits, needs to rediscover the ancient values, in order to escape the spiritual and moral swamp it has sunk to.
What are your political proposals?
Even though we do not have a political agenda, we have by definition an authentic 'political' position that was handed down by our forefathers. This is none other than the active participation of citizens in public life, their self-rule and Democracy.
Real Democracy existed under one name or another in all Hellenic Poleis (cities), excepting the archetypical tyrannocracies and monarchies of the Hellenistic period. It is defined by equality of legal, political and civil rights as well as the right to free speech and assembly.
Self-rule is our birthright and was expressed by the Assembly of Citizens (Ecclesia of Demos, Apella etc.), which was the highest legislative body. Positions of authority (including the priesthood) were not occupied by 'professional' office-bearers, but were held by citizens rotated annually, who held office only once. They received minimal material compensation for their services. No one had the right to exploit their position to forcefully dominate others. Hence, the status of the Citizen was guaranteed even in times of war, where there was no possibility for the declaration of 'emergency measures' under martial law.
It is obvious from what was discussed under the heading 'What are your political proposals? that communism & fascism, and other totalitarian ideologies, have no right to refer to pre-Christian Hellenism.
In the past, true Hellenism had been defeated and could not defend itself against fascists with a selfish agenda e, who crudely exploited it in an attempt to derive prestige from our ancestral glory. Christians also refer to Hellenism in a dishonest and indecent way, in order to support the foundations of their beliefs.
The 'Greek Left', which is Byzantine and Christian in its outlook (with a few exceptions, e.g., Papaioannou and Lentakes) is responsible for most recent violations. They have given the noble world, which gave rise to self-determination and Democracy, to fascists on a platter.
Just as Christianity has nothing in common with Hellenism, neither do all its ideological offshoots, such as communism and fascism. How could a fascist or communist conform to the basic Hellenic Principles of Justice and Tolerance?
Do you believe that modern Greeks are the natural descendants of the ancient Hellenes?
At a national level, yes. This is what the revolutionaries of 1821 believed, as evidenced by their first declarations, where they appealed for a National Hellenic revival, after approx. 20 centuries of foreign oppression.
Hellenic consciousness had survived in isolated pockets during Byzantine tyranny, as can be seen clearly in the case of Plethon Gemistos and his associates, or the earlier movement of Leon Sgouros. This was further reinforced in Greece during the 17th and 18th century Enlightenment and various revolutionary movements.
It has to be understood that an Ethnos is not invalidated by circumstances that lead to its non-expression. To survive, it is enough for a small number of its followers to express it and keep it alive. In the case of the Hellenic Ethnos, this occurred during centuries of Christian and Muslim occupation.
Are modern Greeks the genetic descendants of the classical Hellenes?
Some yes, some no, but this is irrelevant. The racialists on both sides can ramble on and claim that we are 100% Slavic, or whatever else, as can those who want to portray us as the pure descendants of Aeakus. However, the true Hellenes did not refer to 'race' (it would have been comical, since at the time this term applied to a small group of 'clans'). Admittedly, a racial consciousness existed in the classical period, which lacks credibility today, given that before and after 1821 other racial groups were absorbed, many of whose number can only be described as 100% Hellenic. We have always existed as a Hellenic people.
Despite Kolokotrones and many other heroes being of Arvanite extraction, by our standards they are certainly Hellenes, since they shed their blood in the name of Hellas. What clown could deny Kolokotrones, Nikitaras and Androutsos their Hellenic identity, based on racial definitions? The domestic racialists owe us a convincing explanation for this crude oxymoron.
What is your position on National Issues?
That depends on what is meant by the term 'National', because regarding the real issues our views are very specific.
The real National Issues are the deforestation and gradual desertification of the Eastern Mediterranean, the complete lack of aesthetic sensitivity, our general enslavement to an inhuman religion, the practical illiteracy of our young, the frightening lack of proper Education, let alone an Hellenic one, the cultivated lack of spiritual expression, reservation of personality, the wretchedness of the media, the cowardice of politicians, the incompetence and corruption of government etc.
Some fall into the trap of setting traps for others, by referring to 'National Issues' centered solely on expanding the rule of the Modern Greek State. This confidence trick is related to the swindle that considers innumerable Hellenic-descended people as Turks or Italians, simply because they are not Orthodox Christians and do not reside within the borders of the Modern Greek State.
An Ethnos is not defined simply on the basis of a country's political borders and may be smaller or greater than that defined by them. We therefore inform those who would present issues centered on which state a piece of land or sea belongs to as 'National'; that the Pontians, the Muslim converts of Asia Minor, the latinized Southern Italians and the native Pomaks belong to the Hellenic Ethnos. Whereas, many Orthodox Christians, who just happened to fall within certain borders, do not belong to it. The state idiotically and dishonestly defies historical facts and with great cunning identifies 'Hellenism' with 'Christian Orthodoxy', for itself and the Church it serves.
Theological and Cosmological matters.
Christianity has great moral messages, what does your religion offer?
The few instances where Christianity shows some spirituality are no more than crude, unsophisticated copies of the moral values first espoused by our philosophers in ancient Hellas.
The remaining Christian teachings lack any real moral content, unless religious intolerance, fanaticism, religiosity, guilt and contempt for spiritual cultivation can be considered as such.
Similarly, Christianity lacks any spiritual value that is equal to that of the Hellenic National religion, unless by this we mean rote learning of psalms, humiliation, insulting Democracy as 'Civitas Diaboli', exhortations to 'love!' (in the imperative mood) and slogans such as 'Orthodoxy or Death!'
The Hellenic National religion in comparison, is non-dogmatic, naturalistic, polytheistic, clearly defined, celebratory and human. It is an affirmation of earthly life and a healthy striving to approach the realm of the Gods. It deepens the link between humanity and the Divine, not with destruction and humiliation, but through joyous rituals, myth-creation, dance, music and communal celebrations, which link us to the wonderful spiritual world of our ancestors, instead of alienating us from it, like Christianity.
You are ungrateful! Jesus was crucified for our sins!
To begin with, we National Hellenes are not burdened by some ancestral sin and our philosophers have securely guided us, with dignity, on the path of Virtue. We therefore have no need for someone to act on, or indeed against, our behalf, let alone to be 'sacrificed' for us. We do not believe we were born sinners!
In addition, Yeshua's supposed 'sacrifice on our behalf', that Christian propaganda rams down our throats, is an absurd story. If the above mentioned Judaeo preacher (Jesus - Yeshua) was indeed 'God', then his crucifixion would be no more than a meaningless prank, as by definition only what is perishable and mortal can be sacrificed.
On the other hand, the philosopher Socrates, whose existence is an historical fact, conquered death and with frankness and serenity did not avoid it, even though he could. Not from a desire to sacrifice himself nor because he wanted a martyr's end, but as a living example of respect for the Law. And this despite knowing that he was a mere mortal. The philosopher Epictetus characteristically wrote: ". They may kill me, but they cannot cause me harm".
What are your beliefs and what is your Religion called?
What we mean by 'belief' has little relation to what Christians understand by the term 'faith', the definition of which today clearly relates to a form of subservience. Naturally having said this, we, as was the case with our ancestors, cannot be described as not having beliefs. However, our ancestors preferred to use the verb nomizein (to think) and the related term nomizomenon (what is thought of, or understood). To make ourselves clearer today, we refer to the 'perception' of the Gods and the Cosmos. National Hellenes perceive the Cosmos to be a self-created, infinite, "ordered and adorned" entity that arose from within itself, and that we, and everything else in existence, are but infinitely small organic parts of this entity.
Our Gods are a multitude of apportioned immortal beings, self-energizing and self-sufficient 'forces', not personalities, that inhabit this 'Unity' that gave birth to itself. They are the multiple expressions of this Unity that give substance and order to the Cosmos and keep it interconnected and harmonious. (Collectively all our Gods represent the powers of nature, that make up the Cosmos - together they represent the one true God of Nature).
In the healthy pre-Christian human state, the Earth's surface teemed with a polymorphic Ethnosphere. By this we mean a beautiful variety of indigenous civilizations, traditions and religions that were distributed in every part of the world. Each unique Nation understood the Divine differently and appealed to the Gods using a variety of names. Hence, the various Native Religions became unique in themselves and every Nation, and its spiritual descendants, 'brought down' elements of the Godly realm to their altars, as appropriate to their particular needs. Our understanding of the Divine is the same as that of our ancestors, and is expressed by our Religion, whose origins are lost in remote antiquity.
What are the Gods?
Because of today's degeneracy, before this question is answered we must reiterate what was emphasized by Sallustius, at the beginning of his work "On Gods and the Cosmos", i.e., that those with a desire to know about the Gods need to have been educated correctly and not to have been brought up with absurd beliefs. To have a good disposition and logical composition, so that they can accordingly understand matters as well as comprehend common meanings.
The Gods are non-personal beings, possessing both knowledge and immortality. They flow unhindered through and around the whole material world and act upon it. As functionaries of the sacred Mysteries, they participate in 'eternal formation', i.e., the continuous synthesis and de-synthesis of forms. The Gods' spheres of influence do not overlap. They are responsible for the regulation of the Natural World, whose laws they serve. They act flawlessly and without retreat, are not replaced, do not cease to exist, and cannot be defeated by the appetites and expectations of impious mortals or institutions.
The Gods are free and independent entities. They are all equally Divine and are not empowered by any other being or force. They rejoice when inferior entities freely recognize their existence and bestow upon them honor and respect. They do not however need this recognition, nor do they seek it. As Gods they want nothing, they simply shape whatever they desire.
What is the dogma of Ethnic Hellenic religion?
For today's Christians, the prevailing view of what is meant by 'dogma' is a complete distortion of the ancient term that meant a particular philosophical position. Their definition includes a blind faith in the Trinitarian nature of the 'one God', incomprehensible even to them, the dual nature of Yeshua (Jesus) etc. Naturally, Hellenic National religion has no 'dogma' by this definition, but is rather a way of perceiving things. It is therefore not a confusing compilation of pseudo-theological narratives, but is based instead on very specific principles, in turn derived from logic and scientific knowledge, Hellenic tradition and civilization.
Our 'dogma' includes: the obligation we all have to speak and act logically as a mark of respect for Universal Reason, our honest relationship with all living beings, tolerance towards all views that are expressed logically, education through life-experience, respect for measure, the continuous study of the Cosmos and Humanity.
What are the Holy Texts of Ethnic Hellenic religion?
We don't have one sacred book containing the commands or revelatory words of 'God', whose purpose is to regulate humanity's servile obedience to a celestial dictator. On the contrary, the large number of our texts, numbering many thousands, presents the truth in its entirety. Sacred texts are for us the whole corpus of (ancient) Hellenic Learning, at least those works that have survived the sinister flames of Christian pyres (fire). These texts are the condensation of human reasoning in its attempts to validly interpret the Cosmos in a way liked by the Gods, that is, logically.
Does Hellenic National religion engage in proselytizing?
Certainly not, we are dealing here with a clearly ethnic polytheistic (natural) religion, that is to say one that concerns a very specific Ethnos.
The phenomenon of proselytism belongs exclusively to the anti-ethnic and 'ecumenical' monotheistic religions. Their aim is to foster a denial of previously held correct views and replace them with novel alien ones. Proselytism involves crude attempts to misguide naive and spiritually weak people. To us it is wholly detestable, both as a means to an end and as a way of making a point.
We are enemies of all forms of proselytism, because it nullifies autonomy and free will. In our country, all foreign religions engage in proselytism, including the ruling one that practices it with especial audacity, calling it 'catechism' (and even emphases the 'importance of catechism' in the state education system). The outrageous laws of the Metaxas dictatorship granted 'Christian Orthodoxy' the sole right to proselytize, making it unlawful for its competition. All forms of proselytism are raw violent attacks against human liberty.
How many Gods do you have, twelve?
The Gods as infinite expressions of Unity are naturally multiple and most certainly exceed twelve in number. However, our religion confines itself to a complete and harmonious symbolic Pantheon of six Gods and six Goddesses. This Pantheon expresses a perfect, divine quintessence (the number 12 symbolizes completeness and perfection) that fulfills and bonds the Cosmos. It is also symbolized by the 'most perfect' of the famous Pythagorean canonical polyhedral, the dodecahedron.
Are you therefore Polytheists?
We can answer in the affirmative, but should first reiterate that the terms 'monotheism', 'polytheism' etc. are used only as conventions, as in reality the monotheists invented these terms to distinguish themselves from normal humanity. Since humanity never doubted the multiplicity of the Universe, we use 'polytheism' simply to contrast ourselves from the so-called 'monotheists'.
Unity cannot exist without the presupposition of the 'many'. The term is misleading because it has nothing to do with the number of Gods per se, but rather the placing of the Creative Cause outside the Cosmos, which in turn implies its creation from naught (a completely unscientific thesis). Monotheists believe that the laws governing the Universe emanate from the only external, eternal being. This justifies the 'Creator's' right to act autocratically towards 'his' own creation, which has a beginning and will die at some time, as per 'his' desire.
In contrast, our ethnic polytheistic religion assert that the living Cosmos has emanated from within itself and is eternal. There is no external 'Cause' that created all from nothing. The Gods are self-reliant and conscious forces, who are multiple expressions of Unity, emanate from within it and serve its perpetual path.
Do you want to replace the one God of the monotheists with many Gods?
Not really. The restoration of The Hellenic National religion involves more than just changing names and replacing a few idiots with more logical people. There needs to be a simultaneous change in the currently sick way the Cosmos is perceived. The Hellenes carefully define their relationships with the natural environment, their fellow humans and internal universe. For us Man, Nature and the Gods are part of an inseparable organic union, whereas for monotheists the relationships between Man, Nature and 'God' are in perpetual conflict.
How is polytheism different to monotheism?
The chasm that separates the two centers on where the Divine is placed in relation to the Cosmos and on the type of person each one shapes. Let us not forget, as Louis Menard noted, that the belief in an autocratic heaven gave rise to earthly monarchies and autocracies, whereas celestial 'Democracy and Equality' was mirrored on Earth.
In monotheistic religions 'God' (i.e., Yahweh) exists outside a Universe that 'he' allegedly created from nothingness, at some point in time, which 'He' has ruled unchecked ever-since. For polytheists the Gods are found within the Cosmos and are concerned only with its perpetual expression, subject to Logic and Anangke (i.e. Necessity). Anangke is the natural and moral Cause that inevitably compels Nature into a rhythmic energy that regulates all that has occurred and will occur.
Hence, a Cosmos without Logic is incomplete, which is why the Gods voluntarily submit to the Cosmic Laws that have been shaped from within it. This in turn leads to perfection in the Gods, who by definition cannot shape something that is flawed. The natural and existing Hellenic Gods can be approached with logical human reason. By comparison, the unnatural and non-existent 'God' of the monotheists can only be expressed by derangement of the Universe's logical arrangement via various 'miracles', for which they senselessly seem especially proud. 'Miracles' are forceful violations of the logical, natural order of the Universe, which essentially demonstrate the flawed nature of Yahweh, as the creator of an imperfect creation.
What do you mean by the term Cosmotheasis?
This is translated with great difficulty into English. The term Cosmos is used by Greek-speaking Christians to refer to the 'world' and society in general. In these articles the term Cosmos is returned to its original Hellenic meaning and is used interchangeably with 'Universe'. These concepts are almost impossible to understand from a Christian perspective, which may explain why for centuries the "... Earth [was] flat and the center of God's creation." Cosmotheasis means much more than 'worldview' (Weltanschauung), as it encompasses the concept that all in existence (including the Gods) functions as a harmonious 'Oneness' (Unity). The Cosmos is intelligent and sacred in itself. Nothing can perceivably exist outside it, including the Christian 'God'.
The meaning of the term Cosmo-theasis is implied by its two components. It is the way that one views (theasis), or perceives the Cosmos. The result of the specific 'theasis' of each Ethnos (Nation) is the Cosmology, Religion, Philosophy and everyday Customs that it leads to. Understanding Cosmotheasis is therefore very important, since it influences the type of people, system of government and culture that is developed by each Ethnos.
Are you idolaters? If you aren't, then how do you justify the use of statues in your worship?
By proper definition 'Idolatry' is any homage paid to the Divine that uses 'idols' i.e., the conventional portrayal of the Gods in the form of icons, statues or symbols. This is the only serious method of approaching the Sacred. Without visible representation of the inaccessible and faceless Divinities, it becomes difficult for man to perceive them. Having understood this concept, most Christians also practice 'idolatry'. However, for them it took rivers of blood during the massacres between iconoclasts and iconolaters to comprehend this.
The terms 'Idolater' and 'Idolatry' were used insultingly to mock and belittle the Religion of our liberal-minded ancestors, in the Christian war against the Hellenes. The early Christian 'Fathers' hated Hellenism, but were unable to logically attack Philosophy and counter the strong Religion of the Hellenic Ethnos. They therefore tried to make fun of it by accusing our ancestors of worshipping the materials used in their representations (rocks, marble, clay, wood etc). Their methods of attack were completely foolish and easily countered by the philosopher Kelsus (in 'The True Word'). He sarcastically informed then that the Ethnikoi Hellenes knew very well the materials they used to represent their Gods, and that it was what was represented that was actually honored, not the materials per se. As such, the Church's official definition of the word 'Idolatry' is not that which is shared externally with the flock.
According to the 'Three Hierarchs' our Gods are 'non-existent', but at the same time (in contradiction to the above) exist as entities struggling against Yeshua and Yahweh. It is at this point that the Christians begin to crudely insult our ancestral Religion, Gods and religious symbols, as being parts of an alleged demonolatry.
Are you Pagans?
The term 'Pagan', which in the original Latin is derived from Paganus (peasant), is yet another insult used by the victorious Christians since the 4th Century A.D., to belittle what remained of the Native Religions.
They used this to label all those remaining loyal to their National Ethnic Traditions, to imply that they were uneducated and uncouth villagers. The term was used for centuries in most European languages to refer to the Ethnikoi (Nationalists). In the 20th Century, it was reintroduced with the suffix neo (viz. Neopaganism), by various Christian-inspired devotees of Esotericism and the New Age. 'Neopaganism' doesn't concern us. It may even be a manufactured ploy to detract from the current world rule of the so-called 'Monotheists'.
Some make fun of the Ethnic Hellenic National religion by referring to the wanton sexual practices of the Gods. How do you respond to this?
We simply pity them, because of the degenerate level of their boundless stupidity. Our Gods and Goddesses are not personalities, nor do they have a gender that would allow them to participate in physical practices necessary for mortals.
We Ethnikoi Hellenes, describe the Gods anthropomorphically simply because the High Theology contained within the Myths (mysteries) can be better appreciated when it is changed into a more comprehensible language, conforming to human measures. Every Myth hides within it one of many profound symbolism. Mortals are invited to seek and research them according to their quality, which is dependent on their Understanding of the Cosmos and Education. It is not surprising therefore, that when vulgar people bring a Myth down to their base level they interpret it accordingly.
Why don't you ask to be recognized as an 'official religion'?
We don't think there is an issue of recognition, or otherwise, of our Ethnic Hellenic religion by some petty state authority, requiring an application, as if we were some small monotheistic sect. The existence of our ancestral polytheistic Religion is by rights just, as it is indigenous, native, historically well known and much older than any other religion, including today's ruling creed.
Despite the fact that the freedom to practice religion, in Hellas, is 'guaranteed' by Law 2462/97- Article 18, we assert without discussion, that our inherited Olympic Hellenic Religion, as practiced by law-abiding citizens of good reputation, is the only natural Religion of the Hellenic Ethnos. Its public recognition by society, after 16 centuries of banishment by the anti-Hellenic emperors of New Rome - Byzantium (Eastern Roman Empire), is more than just a matter of 'legality' involving approval by some petty authority, but a de facto acceptance by modern Greek society. A narrow 'legal' recognition of our Hellenic National religion is not only improper, but also insulting. Such proceedings would include the absurd premise that there is a requirement for the consent of an autocratic foreign creed. It is comical to think that in our country a recently arrived monotheistic sect would deem our ancient Religion unlawful.
When the time comes, and it will come, when we are officially recognized by the Modern Greek State, this must occur by an Act voted in triumphantly by the Greek Parliament, as was the case with the Ethnic religions of Iceland and Lithuania.
You state that you represent not only a Hellenic system of beliefs, but Ethnic Hellenic religion itself. You must realize that State recognition is not possible, because there will be insurmountable problems regarding a number of issues, e.g., the legal ownership of archaeological sites.
We are well aware of the current state of affairs. Nevertheless, the dynamic existence of an indigenous religious community cannot depend on its recognition by a regime that, by its own admission, blindly obeys the commands of a hostile ruling creed. Consequently, so-called 'official recognition' is not our problem, but solely that of the modern Greek State, which due to its voluntary submission to the Christian Church bears sole responsibility for the absurd state of religious affairs in our country.
The Government has a duty to: 'de-mediaevalise' modern Greek society as soon as is possible, institutionally and financially distance itself from a Church that has illegally acquired its boundless assets, make monasticism unlawful etc. The legal ownership of these properties is not that important, but should remain with the State.
Shrines must be re-erected and the burning of Styrax returned to our Sacred Sites!
There are some who insist that cultivated ancient Hellenes were in fact monotheists.
These people are common hustlers, trying to take advantage of the ignorance surrounding the true nature of their so-called 'monotheism'. There were no monotheistic Hellenes. Those who allege this idiocy are projecting their own Christian beliefs onto a fundamentally different world. In fooling themselves they drag other simple, semi-literates down to their level.
Does the Hellenic National religion have a 'professional' priesthood?
There was never a 'professional' priesthood in our Ethnic Hellenic religion, as far as mainstream religious practices go, which were both public and personal. In antiquity 'professional priests' were only employed as soothsayers and in the mystery forms of the religion, the details of which have been lost and cannot be practiced today.
For the time being, in the modern practice of the Hellenic National religion any moral individual, who is able to respectfully face the Gods, can fulfill priestly obligations. In contrast to the Christian clergy who pretend they are their 'God's' agents, the elected priests of the Ethnikoi act as representatives of their community to the Godly realm.
However if the need arises to have an organized priesthood, we see no problem in this becoming a reality.
Do your ceremonies have specific conventions?
Yes of course. The conventions of today's religious practices have been distilled from the diligent study of ancient sources. They have been constructed to cover the spiritual requirements of modern Ethnikoi, without binding them to compulsory and inflexible formulae as this is an evolving process of bringing back our religion to the modern world.
Can women become priestesses?
Women aren't just involved in ceremony but the Gods themselves have directed their participation. In addition to everything having a dual nature, our Pantheon is symbolically half-composed of six Goddesses. Women being closer to Nature's cycles are especially privileged to be able to bring forth life from within their bodies.
Do you seriously believe that the Gods live on Mount Olympus?
Olympus is indeed the symbolic spiritual abode of the Olympian Gods. However, it is not the well-known mountain separating Thessaly from Macedonia on whose peak our ancestors built alters, knowing full well that it could not therefore be the Gods' literal abode. There were 18 other mountains also called Olympus in distant places inhabited by Hellenes, from Asia Minor to the colonies in the West.
The true Olympus was and is a Divine place, a celestial 'land' that is bathed in Spiritual Light. In fact the word Olympus is derived from the verb 'Lampo' (I radiate), whose archaic root is probably proto-Pelasgian. The sublime Olympus lies above us, below us and within us. Our Gods are everywhere!
Regarding Ethnic Hellenic Celebrations and Ceremonies
What is your view of the modern Olympic Games?
We are opposed to such games, because they are falsely named and have no relationship with the authentic and living spirit of our ancestors, the true Hellenes. They are also quite a world apart from the initial romanticism that justified their creation and revival by non-Greeks, about a century ago. The majority of them were monotheists, ignorant of the real essence of the Games (i.e., their religious nature). Today they are a vulgar commercialization that profoundly insults the symbols and beliefs of our ancestors, who honored with their theology the Sublime, the True and the Beautiful.
Even the name of our religion (Olympic, Olympian) has been turned into a trademark and the local representatives of this blasphemy have made pathetic caricatures of our Gods, Apollo and Athena.
The real Olympic Games, as the pre-eminent symbol-institution of our inherited Cosmotheasis, were abolished by the Byzantine (Eastern Roman Empire) invaders 16 centuries ago. If they are ever re-established, it will be in all their grandeur along with the revival of the culturally enslaved, for 22 centuries, Hellenic Ethnos. All other 'resurrections' have been, are and will be comical or profane.
Which occasions do you celebrate? When and how do you celebrate them?
Enough information has survived to allow us to celebrate the most important festivals of our ancestors, which centered on the never-ending cycles of Mother Nature (e.g., the Anthesteria). During our celebrations, ceremonies are held in honor of the Gods and the commemoration of our Heroes. Our rituals are performed according to ancient custom with the summoning of the Deity, the recital of hymns and bloodless sacrifice. The latter involves offerings of flowers, fruit, incense, perfume and appropriate libations of wine, milk or honey.
Why sacrifice?
Any act honoring the Gods involves sacrifice, otherwise it becomes a parody. The theology behind sacrifice is based on Communion and Reason. These are both gifts for which the Gods are paid their dues by mortals, in the form of various sustenance-giving riches, taken from Nature.
We could say that the essence of sacrifice is to seek the Gods' consent for the consumption on which the life of mortal beings is based. The philosopher Sallustius, in 'On the Gods and the Cosmos' emphasizes that "...since we have received everything from the Gods, and it is right to pay the giver some tithe of his gifts, we pay such a tithe of possessions. Prayers without sacrifices are only words, with sacrifices they are live words; the word gives meaning to the life, while the life animates the word."
Do you perform blood sacrifices?
There are two types of sacrifices, those involving the letting of blood (i.e., the slaughter of an animal that is later eaten during the festive meal) and blood-less ones. Both are equally sacred. However today, the sacredness of the former is not easily appreciated, because humanity has distanced itself from nature and consumes meat slaughtered savagely with mechanical devices, bought in supermarkets and packaged in plastic. This is why we only persist with the practice of blood-less sacrifice.
The 'accusation' made by Christians regarding blood sacrifice is dishonest and hypocritical. It is simply made to defame us to those who don't know a lot about our Ethnic religion. The Christians, who non-sacrificially slaughter millions of sheep and turkeys during their own celebrations, have few problems with their conscience.
Is it true that the ancient Hellenes performed human sacrifices?
This is just another disgusting, Christian lie. With the exception of mythological narratives, Ethnic Hellenic religious ceremonies NEVER included human sacrifice. Our Religion is innately and instinctively related to philosophy, science and all the other cultural achievements of our ancestors, whilst encompassing the most illustrious, historical approach to the Divine. It was this specific religion and world-view that discovered and expressed the meaning of Humanism. Therefore, even the mere suggestion of human sacrifice is absurd, from every perspective.
Sacrifice, as mentioned above, is the sacred act of communion of mortals with the Gods and a thanksgiving for Nature's riches, involving an offering made by the former to the latter. It is therefore obvious to even the simplest, serious person that this cannot include human victims.
A few endeavour to convince others that the massacre of Persian captives by Themistocles, before the naval battle of Salamis, and the use of some condemned criminals as pharmakoi were 'human sacrifices'. Excepting Hellas-haters, all those who know about our ancestors should also know that there is NO recorded instance of official religious practice involving human sacrifice, in any of the independent, autonomous Hellenic Poleis (cities) - something confirmed by archaeological research. All references to such rituals belong exclusively to the world of mythological narrative.
THE VANISHING OF CONSCIOUS HELLENISM
Minas Savvas, Ph.D.
Professor of American Literature and Creative Writing
San Diego State University, California
I was invited as a participant in a panel discussion entitled “The Future of Hellenism in America.” The other panelists were a professor of philosophy and a professor of ancient history. The professor of philosophy spoke about the modem borrowings and inspirations that sprang from the glorious achievements of the ancient Greeks. He enumerated some of the plays, operas, musical compositions and artistic works in subsequent centuries that would not have been possible without the legacy of Hellenism. The historian, the only non-Greek in the panel, echoed the philosopher, praised the ancient thinkers that all people must cherish and expressed his optimism for the Hellenic ideals.
When my turn came, I spoke about Greek America by reminding the audience that we are addressing our remarks on the future of genuine Greekness. Pessimism, of course, has never been popular, so I was obliged to qualify my remarks by explaining that my kind of Hellenism is not just history and culture in their bare reality, in their invulnerable substance. Such Hellenism is bound to survive, in spite of the barbarians at the gates – the afrocentrsts, multiculturalists and cultural relativists. My Hellenism, I explained, is impassioned knowledge. It is a compulsive affection, not unconditional (as chauvinism would be) but persistent and true. It is getting a lump in your throat when the Greek national anthem is heard or when you read some lines from George Seferis or Yiannis Ritsos. It is the Hellenism that will bring those involuntary tears to your eyes when a Greek village girl stands on the Olympic winner’s platform while the Greek flag is raised and the flutters on the high mast. It is the gloating and rejoicing when you read Sappho’s lyrics or Thucydides judicious prose. It is the urge to wish to fight back when you hear or read Greece and the Greeks are unfairly denigrated. {It would be chauvinism, however, if one did so when the criticism was fair}.
Far from chauvinism, my Hellenism is an instinctive, patriotic love for a vulnerable, much-tormented, achievement-rich, little country where I first saw the sun’s light. Yes, I am cautiously pessimistic about my kind of Hellenism in, say, the year 2060. What with intermarriage [ estimates of Greeks marrying outside of their ethnic origin now range from 65% to 80% ], with no migrants from Greece, and with the third and fourth generation having their consciousness rapidly and most noticeably diminish, I see no light in the end of the proverbial tunnel.
While some of us among the more ethnically vigilant, for instance, puffed our chests with pride because a Greek by the name of Tom Pappas was to represent the United States in the decathlon in the 2000 Sydney Olympics, the blond athlete himself was hardly aware that he was Greek. An article a few months after the Olympics, in the weekly The Greek American who interviewed him, pointed out that, “Toms only connection to his Greekness was his name.” (December 9-10, 2000). Tom is, in my view, the mainstream direction of the future, and, judging from similar examples, the future in some respects is already here.
Projections indeed suggest that even by 2040 Greek-American communities as we know them will be shadows of their former selves. AHEPA, the Pan Cretans, the Pan Arcadians, and other such organizations are already becoming geriatric. The lament “Where are the young? Is constant and persistent in specifically Hellenic organizations. Intermarriage and assimilation, already rampant, are bound to increase and though Greek names will still remain and may raise a knowing eyebrow or two, the throbbing musculature of Hellenism, that which is informed by passion and pride, is on its way to becoming a crumbling, osteoporotic skeleton. In certain pockets of America, I presume, even 50 years from now, we will still have the superficially Greek parochial festivals, with those Hellenes who are largely attracted by the catnip of mousaka and tsamiko. Yet, even these, I predict, will be smaller than and only remotely as Greek as we have come to know them in the twentieth century.
As for the role of the Greek Orthodox Church (if it will still be called “Greek Orthodox”), it will have – as it has for almost three decades – turned its back to ethnicity in general. I know there are exceptions, but the liturgy performed increasingly in English , the Church’s distance from secular celebrations, the galloping multiplications of converts, in both clergy and laity, should lead us to some conspicuous conclusions. Patriarch Bartholomeo's recent unfortunate comment that the Church needs to be divorced from Hellenism is indeed a portent of the future. That the Phanar recently did not permit the patriotic Archbishop Christodoulos to lead the Greek Independence parade in New York should not surprise us.
( The Greek Orthodox Church around the world seems no longer to have a policy of maintaining and keeping alive the Hellenic identity, language, culture or Hellenic heritage. It is now only interested in expanding the number of Orthodox Christians in its ranks, it now only seems to have / has a religious universal role.
Ελληνική Εθνική Θρησκεία και Τιμή
Hellenic National (ethnic) Religion and Honour
* In the world of today, mankind will only be saved from its
spiral downwards towards a decadent existence from the renaissance and re
awakening of the Holy Hellenic Spirit.
* Στον κόσμο του
σήμερα, η ανθρωπότητα θα σωθεί μόνο από το φαύλο κύκλο του προς τα κάτω, προς
μια παρακμιακή ύπαρξη από την εκ νέου αναγέννηση και αφύπνιση του Ιερού
Ελληνικού Πνεύματος...........Aristotellis Alexandridis ).
Though my cynicism does not consort with some strident anti-clerical Greeks who think of the Church as the perennial enemy of Hellenism, there are those who will even argue that in general the Church in America has been trying to subvert Hellenism for decades, forgetting the inextricable connection of the language of the Gospels with the essence of Orthodoxy or of the importance of Hellenic (even if pagan - Hellenic National Religion and Faith) thought to the precepts of the early fathers and of Greek Orthodox theology. But I do surmise that here and there in the Orthodox churches of the future there will still be encouragement for those festivals. Such celebrations, after all, will help to raise funds and those for whom the name Aristotle can only mean Onassis will be parishioners who will have to understand that such ethnic affairs must emphasize more than Hellenism and that in themselves they are unnecessary to being a good Orthodox steward.
I hope, of course, that I am mistaken in my pessimism. And I do wish that my optimism were not so overwhelmed by my pessimism. Oh, yes, I do hope that if there is light at the end of the tunnel it is not the oncoming train. I even could here find it possible to light a candle, besides cursing the darkness. Though diluted and with some of the passion diminished, genuine Greekness may survive with people, Greek or non-Greek, who will concentrate on its values and its ideals. Some of the young Orthodox converts may indeed see beyond the religiosity; some non-Greek mates may move beyond the culinary and such and become truly interested in the essence of their partner’s ethnicity.
Non-Greeks, in general, may indeed out-Hellenize the shallow Hellenes as they become what Isocrates called “participants in our education” (“tis imeteras paideias metehontes”). In turn (and I have met such people) they may indeed promulgate the glory and ideals of Hellenism with an intellectual (even if not patriotic) zeal. It may be that our secular organizations will soon be alarmed enough to institute and subsidize schools – tutorial or of any other kind – that will teach the young their Hellenic heritage and culture. Perhaps, as well, such organizations will initiate closer and more frequent contact with the motherland.
Concurrently, the Greek government itself will have to increase its serious involvement in such endeavors. One can also hope that there will be more and better sponsored trips for our youth to Greece, organized by both the Greek state and our diaspora organizations, and all in consonance with the accelerated program of Greek teaching in the language, the culture and the history of mother Hellas. In this regard, a genuine, continuous dialogue between Hellas and the Hellenic diaspora is bound to enrich both. There is also a ray of hope in the “Greek Chairs” being instituted in American universities, though I do wonder how committed their graduates will become to their acquired Hellenism.
The Greekness whose gradual loss I lament here is a mode of thought and the love and passion that accompany it. For a culture to persist, its past and simple nostalgia, though very important, are not enough. To sustain themselves, traditions must stand fast at their core but ought to carve new pathways into the future. The diminution of Greekness does have much to do with the imperatives of evolution. Each generation, by the very nature of things, is bound to adopt its beliefs, its own priorities and its own perceptions. And yet, in my constitutionally-protected opinion, the Greek Americans, though commendable in many ways, have not done enough to sustain what is significant in their ethnicity; to pass on to their offspring the pride that comes from knowing who they are. Even if something of what had been may be salvaged, as I have here suggested, overall, I am sadly compelled to feel that we are headed toward “the cursed misfortune” of succumbing to their fate.

HELLENISM : What we believe - What we stand for.
by Κρεσφόντης (Βλ. Ρασσιάς)
Hellenism (ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΟΣ ΕΘΝΙΣΜΟΣ) is not simply a Religion and Cosmotheory, it is a certain form of human consciousness and an everyday ethos. It is a strong adversary of the so-called “Monotheism” and this not only due to its being the most well-documented of the ancient polytheistic nature-Religions, but also because it is the cultural product of a civilization much higher -on all levels- than the one which created and spread the worship of a Desert “God” throughout the world.
Hellenism perceives Cosmos (ΚΟΣΜΟΣ, i.e. the Universe) as an ever-existing Being, which not only was not created by some “creator” God out of nothing (ΕΚ ΤΟΥ ΜΗΔΕΝΟΣ), but on the contrary allowed the Gods themselves to be created through its procedures. Hellenism understands Cosmos as ΑΠΕΙΡΟΝ (Apeiron, Infinity) in great, wonderful order and therefore in Hellenic language Cosmos means also jewel (ΚΟΣΜΟΣ, ΚΟΣΜΗΜΑ). Gods were born inside the Cosmos and live inside it -they are part of it. This is our REAL dispute with the so-called “Monotheism;” not the number of Gods (One or Many, Mono- or Poly-) but where the God or Gods stand in relation to the Cosmos. For the “Monotheists” the Cosmos was created by an ever -existing Being outside it (so in this macro-historical level it is nothing more than a mortal creation). For the “Monotheists” Cosmos is a creation that has to obey the laws of its “creator”. For us Hellenes, the eternal Cosmos emerges always from inside of itself (ΑΝΑΔΥΕΤΑΙ ΑΦ’ ΕΑΥΤΟΥ) and is the creator of all Gods, which have to obey its own laws. In the Hellenic Cosmotheory, these laws are :
ΑΝΤΙΠΕΠΟΝΘΟΣ ("Antipeponthόs", untranslatable to English, but roughly meaning "all events influence others" thought without "cause and effect"),
ΝΟΜΟΣ ("Nόmos", the entirey of the universal physical Laws), and
ΑΝΑΓΚΗ (“Anάngee” Need and Fate), which all Gods respect and obey.
Due to the eternal nature of Cosmos itself, the Hellenic perception of ΧΡΟΝΟΣ ("Chrόnos", Time) is not linear (as the followers of Yahweh or the modern "rationalists" declare), nor circular (as many judeo-born occult dogmas teach) through the ΟΥΡΟΒΟΡΟΣ symbol ("Ourobόros”, tail-eater snake), but spiral and leading to ΑΠΕΙΡΟΝ. Through this shape of Time, the annual circles, the lunar circles, the human (and all) life, and the art of Prophecy, are fully interpreted. History is never "repeated", just similar to the point that identical events happen but always under different circumstances. And the death of humans (and of all mortal forms of life) happens as the philosopher ΑΛΚΜΑΙΩΝ (Alkmaion) declared, simply "because it is impossible for the end of the circle to touch the beginning". In other words, because it is impossible for the old to become infants again.
For the Hellenic Tradition, or at least its part not yet influenced by the "moral" ideas brought over from eastern civilizations by some famous philosophers as Pythagoras and Plato, no such thing as the "karma" of the eastern theocrats exists, and no "judges" exist in the skies or elsewhere. All dead become automatically holy and then they are born again until through ΑΡΕΤΗ ("Aretee" Virtue) one day their ΨΥΧΗ (Psyche) escapes from the spiral of Time, thus becoming primitive God, ΔΑΙΜΩΝ ("daimon") a word with a positive meaning for Hellenes, in contrast with Judeo-Christain superstition. ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ (Hercules) is the ultimate symbol of this struggle of each mortal to make his / her way to Olympus, among the Immortal Ones. Hercules is the ultimate symbol for all Hellenes of the past and the present. No, we do not believe in ΜΕΤΕΜΨΥΧΩΣΙΣ ("Metempsyhosis" Re-incarnation) suffering or prospering in this life to pay for or be rewarded for the bad or good actions of previous lives, but instead simply in ΠΑΛΙΓΓΕΝΕΣΙΑ ("Paligenesίa", Rebirth). This perspective distinguishes us from the theocratic dogmas that terrify their believers with "punishments" e.t.c. We love or hate completely outside the Judeo-Christian or karmic designs and dualisms. No dualism of "Good and Evil" exists in the Immortal Cosmos, nor such things as the miscellaneous "moralities" that all the dualistic dogmas spread among humanity. We become virtuous only because we choose to be such.
Our Gods are many and we understand them as completing the make-up of the Universal Sphere of Cosmos to its maximum potential and whole. Thus, from the ΔΩΔΕΚΑΕΔΡΟΝ ("Dodekάhedron") geometric shape (that fills up the sphere to its maximum) we imagine twelve planes, each one presenting a God inside the Cosmos and we define our Hellenic ΠΑΝΘΕΟΝ (Pάntheon, ΠΑΝ ΤΩΝ ΘΕΩΝ, All The Gods) as ΔΩΔΕΚΑΘΕΟΝ ("Dodekάtheon", Pantheon of The Twelve Gods).The Twelve Gods of ours live inside the Shpere of Cosmos and form its various behaviors. In the same way, the twelve Zodiacs represent twelve "energies" that reach Earth and live inside the humans and animals, thus forming various behaviors as well.
Our Twelve Gods are also called ΟΛΥΜΠΙΟΙ ("Olympioi", The Olympians) not because, as many want to believe, they.. dwell on Mt. Olympus, as the mountains with this name numbered not one but eighteen throughout the Hellenic World. This is just a poetic conception, similar to the one that wants Pan to dwell in the forests of Arcadia. The word "Olympus" comes from the verb ΛΑΜΠΩ ("lάmpein", shining). Our Twelve Gods are the "Shining Ones", and the real "Olympus" is not a geographical but a spiritual place, where the Gods really exist.
Another fact worth noting is that these Twelve Gods are not the same Twelve Gods for all Hellenes as some leave Dionysos out, some leave Hestia, e.t.c., replacing them with others. It is the number that counts, not the names of the Gods which in any case number in the thousands- and we must underline here that Hellenism honors and worships not only conscious forces and energies of Nature (as almost all Pagan religions do) but also abstract Ideas, such as Harmony, Eunomia, Justice, Freedom, Beauty, Luck, e.t.c. For us, the Ideas are alive and have form and consciousness; they are real deities that simply show themselves through the functions of the human mind.
A basic (“for beginners”) form of invocation of the Twelve Olympian Gods, a Pantheon that was worshiped at least since the 16th Century before the Judeo-Christian Era (they are named U-ru-pa-ja-jo in the Linear B inscription of Pylos), and openly until the 9th Century of our times (when the last remains of worship of the ethnic Hellenic Gods were exterminated in Lakonia, under the persecutions by "Saint" Nikon the so-called "Metanoite" i.e. "Repent") is the following:
(The Gods are being invoked in "couples" according to the elements and functions that each "couple" supervises).
* Hestia (the power or denization and of common ethos: all invocations start with her named first: " ΑΦ’ ΕΣΤΙΑΣ")
* The honored God or Goddess of the hellenic lunar month
* Hephaistos - Hestia (alternatively: Hermes - Hestia)
* Ares - Aphrodite
* Apollo - Artemis
* Hermes - Athena (alternatively: Hephaistos - Athena)
* Poseidon - Demeter
* Hera - Zeus
We must emphasize here that the "male" and "female" terms inside the Hellenic Pantheon have nothing to do with the sexism and dualism dwelling in the minds of narrow-minded followers of alien cultures. Our Gods have no genitals. The existence of six Gods and six Goddesses inside the Hellenic Pantheon only serves to declare the total balance of all elements and characteristics inside the Sphere of Cosmos. Understanding the structure, nature and distribution of the Cosmos in this way, Hellenism comes in open opposition to all one-sided and partial dogmas on Cosmos, such as "Monotheism", "Bitheism" e.t.c. Because of this, for centuries now, it has been attacked with all the weapons that the arsenal of its enemies contains, from the burnings and crucifixions by the christianized Romans of Contantinoupolis to the disinformation and slander of the modern servants of the Desert "God" Yahweh (in all their disguises). And it may sound odd, but both we and our enemies know that the power of Hellenism is more than that of a Cosmotheory or of a Religion. It's above all a political and social "how to" theory that means to "haunt" the Every Day Life with its high principles: Dignity, Freedom, Beauty, Honesty, Variety, Tolerance, Candor..
We represent an ethos and a cosmotheory, both deeply admirable, for they never allowed the existence of priestly castes, unquestioning obedience, fear or guilt. (Hellenism knows nothing about the word "sin"), dogma or "sacred" books. We are fighting for the Hellenic Dignity in a country totally dominated by an alien culture and cosmotheory, inside a world which is totally dominated by an alien culture and cosmotheory. We speak a language in which most of its deep meanings are impossible to translate into the widely spoken languages of today, a language that almost nobody can understand (nobody outside Greece can read our journal and books). From a strictly "strategic" perspective, we appear almost insane or, at least, "defeated in advance". But we know that we tread the correct path and that the Gods support us. Just by existing we win !
We are the revenge of the Ancient Psyche. We call into question almost every thought and act of this dying world enslaved to the Desert "God" Yahweh, almost every single behavior. And we are in full solidarity with all groups and movements, which work for the restoration of our traditional / indigenous ethos and religions, and also with all others which fight the multi-faceted war for Freedom, Tolerance, Respect for Nature and Democracy in all levels of Every Day Life.
GOD AND THE OLD TESTAMENT
The Old Testament is just ‘a load of old rubbish’, or less polite words to that effect! And there’s a good reason for this – in fact two good reasons.
The first one is to do with the testament itself. The second is to do with the knowledge of how the testament came about i.e. biblical archaeology. Both reasons provide plentiful evidence that it can’t be the word of a god, and that in fact it contra-indicates the existence of this god.
If you care to read the Old Testament, from go to whoa, carefully, and with serious intent to understand it, pausing to think about it, and contemplating each passage, you would almost certainly come to the following conclusions:
• The manuscript is a weird, hot-potch collection of strange and scarcely creditable verses and tales. Although individual verses may make sense, you would be hard pressed to make sense of the testament in its totality.
• The book of Genesis (as do those of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers etc., right through to Jeremiah) contain so many scientific and factual errors, not to mention contradictions, as to suggest that God must have been either playing a great joke on us or he is/was as ignorant of the world as were the dessert goat herders of ‘biblical times’. If the God of the old testament did indeed create the world, he certainly must have done it without any knowledge of physics, astronomy, meteorology, biology,…and just about every ‘ology’ you can think of.
• The entire Old Testament is full of absurdities, too many to list, but here’s a couple of many oversights out of Genesis:
4:25 And Adam knew his wife again: and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
4:26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
(Where did Seth find a wife, as there were only three other persons in existence: Adam, Eve and Abel? Incest?)
17:11 And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
There are many foreskin passages. It would seem that God is more concerned with what to do with the end of one’s penis, than explaining a little about say, germ theory. Even a random scan through the Old Testament, and you’ll find such absurdities bountiful.
• Then there are numerous verses throughout the testament that contain cruelty (lots of that), injustice, violence, not to mention a raft of contradictions.
One could go on further, but you get the general idea. If these yarns were about a god who felt the need to create ‘man’ in his own image, you’d have to agree, this god is a fairly unsavoury, hypocritical ignoramus - hardly the sort of scoundrel you’d want to invite to dinner, let alone worship,
A good place to examine (on the internet) the veracity of both the Christian Bible and the Koran, is a site called “The Sceptics Annotated Bible”. This resource could help you come to the obvious conclusion: the Bible is bunkum.
Secondly, biblical archaeology is very convoluted and complex. One needs to consider whether the argument that the Bible represent the words ‘spoken’ by the Christian God and written down in its perfect form by humans, is convincing and creditable, or whether the weight of evidence comes down on the authorship being the hand and imagination of man? Unless you’ve already been pre-conditioned to accept the Bible as beyond reproach, it would be difficult not to conclude on the second argument.
The formation of the ‘modern’ bible traces a path through ancient myths that may at first have been compiled many centuries before the second century BCE. It appears to have had ‘genesis’ with old Hebrew texts, which, in turn, seemed to have borrowed from a number of ancient Greek mythologies. Creation stories are as old as humanity itself and have persisted in many guises, in many cultures over long periods, until the emergence of modern science in the 17th/18th centuries. The Christian version of events has passed through many translations: through languages obscure, ancient, and modern; through theological disputes, interpretations, misinterpretations, foul play and intrigues, mergers and de-mergers, editing and falsification…ad nauseam. Even to this day, different parts of different texts are recognised or rejected by different Christian churches: Roman Catholic, Protestant, Eastern Orthodox, Russian and Greek Orthodox, Evangelical and more, all have their own slant on the Old Testament. None of it points to the word of God.
(Please refer to the Wikipedia site ‘Bible’, for insight into the origin of the Old Testament.)
At the end of your research, ask yourself a few simple questions: do the verses of the Old (and New) Testament reflect the word, the thoughts and account of a loving, infallible, omniscient, omnipotent God? Or are they the attempts of ‘man’, in the absence of modern knowledge, to explain his origin and being? Could the testament’s archaeological past, this miasma of events, be how the Christian,Jewish,Jehovas Witnesses and Muslim God ordained it? Or does it only make sense if we conclude that this God is imaginary?
The Gods of the Greeks.
On the question of what gods, there is a great error and misinformation. The word god etymology (in dictionary D Gazis, issued under the Con. Karpola Olympian of the year 1839) of the verb God, run, restless conceived of the deity, ie, uninterrupted moving towards progress and development and therefore The word God can not be regarded as a designation of Cause procession of Nature (or else the Creator of Nature), and much more identified with the cause of the procession of Nature. Thus Gods are a psychic individuality located to evolutionary level beyond which the human (as above) rushing rapidly towards continued progress and growth of their forces.
But as understood nowadays the word God has two meanings, it means a) the cause of the procession of the universe (or the Creator of the Universe Authority or the Creator of the Universe) and b) the Spirit of God or God (eg God Mars ). Between these two concepts, there is a huge difference, because God as the cause of the procession of the universe (Creator) is the cause of the outbreak of Nature and God as a spiritual entity is the result of creation. The cause of the procession is the whole universe and God as a spiritual entity is individuality. The individuality (the spirit of God) is a part of the whole rather than the whole (the Creator of causes). Individualism (God Spirit) bear the entire sperm but not the whole, follows the course of the whole and is governed by the laws of the whole. Therefore, the characterization of Cause procession of Nature as God by Christians in the Middle Ages and was confusing just to deliberately created this confusion.
As is apparent, following the above, the expression of monotheistic religion or monotheism is meaningless because the meaning of the word God, as understood in the Greek language can not be attributed to the cause of the Creative Universe. Also, the denial of the existence of spiritual hierarchies, whose members, according to the Greeks, are the gods (spirits) leads to the denial of the existence and operation of the universal laws of development, the existence and operation of which is evident in the contemporary spiritual man who has been eluded by medieval obscurantism.
The attempt by certain monotheistic religions to replace the spiritual hierarchies with "angels" (Jewish creation / tradition) or the "saints" (Christian creation / tradition) is incomplete because a) default is static situation because there is neither a further evolution of the saints, but nor the apotheosis of man and the endless evolution in the spiritual hierarchy and the man who must bear with him as the so-called "original sin" and the only favorable to him is the entrance to "heaven", which will remain in a state of eternal stagnation and b) leaves many questions about the ethics of so-called "saints" example: it can be upgraded to a level beyond human a common criminal and canonization? What happened to the "great and holy and Equal to the Apostles' Emperor Constantine, who was canonized, despite the criminal's past, it has provided political cover to Christianity.
Thus the view expressed by some writers or editors articles that our ancestors were monotheists are at least naive. Made by those who are either trying to prove that everything from the Greeks (even the monotheism of the biblical religions) and deliberately distorting the views of our ancient ancestors, or have misinterpreted the ancient texts (what perisothikan the destructive fury of the Christians ) from their inability to penetrate the subtle meanings of philosophers. The Greeks, therefore, believed and believe in the existence of Spiritual hierarchies, whose members are the gods of various levels and therefore were polytheists. The views expressed Pythagorean philosopher that "Gods and the Gods speak 'as we say that we have the gods of the earth's environment so the gods of the earth's environment and these are their gods, etc. states clearly the importance of these hierarchies. Certainly, after this, there remains the question about the faith of the Greeks to the Creator.
Greeks were not employed, nor particularly concerned about the issue Cause of the Creator because the Creator cause is not an intellectual individual to appeal to it for help, or is reasonably conceivable Creator Cause to come to an individuality to the assist. The Greeks worship their Creator in the event is manifested by the worship they attach to the Divine Nature, which is the apparent expression of the Creator Cause, which were and are lovers. So they had established festivals in the equinoxes and the committees of the Sun (Natural Celebrations), eg Flower Festival before the spring equinox, etc. At the same time the initiates into the mysteries "behind closed doors" were special ceremonies at the equinoxes and the committees of the Sun (see the chapter "On the Natural Holiday ') so recoverable their adoration to the Divine Nature which is brought to the human soul (Logic Paradigm - Autumnal Equinox), enabling it to develop the epistemic level (Cognitive Paradigm - Winter sion of the Sun), enabling it to achieve spiritual regeneration (Sofia - Spring Equinox) and gave her the opportunity to gain immortality (Apotheosis - Summer Committee of the sun).
The Greek national with the word God mean only the Spirit of God, whom they regard as personal, intellectual and conscious existence that has evolved beyond the human level and not the cause of the procession of the universe (or Creator). The identification of the concept of cause procession of the universe in the sense of God (spirit) leads man to confusion. A Greek national mean not only the ancient Greeks and modern which is harmonized and impregnated by the beliefs and spirit of our ancient ancestors. But what is really gods - spirits?
Gods (spirits) are individual cognitive and conscious beings, crossed by the forms of the Worlds and then developed, which is the result of evolution. The laws of the Creator in action through the ongoing transformations brought these entities initially in the state of conscious and intellectual beings, and from there to the status of God (Spirit), to govern the response to those known mental beings. The relationship of God (Spirit) to come upon this mental beings governed by a harmonic law, the Law of Love. Therefore man must to the gods (spirits) only because they love and is governed by this Act harmony with others, has the same love to manifest and to his fellowmen. The Greek national not attribute to worship their gods but love. Worship attach only to the great Pan (Universe or Divine Nature), which is why it is lovers. Please note that the gods there is another point of view according to which the gods are not conscious entities but are considered as dynamic events of Zeus, creator and symbols of the great images of Nature and not separate mental individuality. This view coincides with monotheism, and therefore does not accept the apotheosis of man.
Gods (spirits) are minds that have made the reformatory that circle from which it could gain eternal organic means and so dominated the consciousness of the Infinite as having divine Will. Eternal organic medium is a body not subject to the process of death and the spiritual body. All consciousness of Nature endowed promoted to the realm of pure knowledge and become divine consciousness with endless changes in infinite time. In the Greek tradition of the Gods, as mentioned above, is a product of evolution of the human spirit and the mysteries leitourgisanta designed to show the secrets of the road to the apotheosis. As the man with the intellect and the possibilities of ensuring the organic nature is the main regulator and the natural forces of nature environment and thus dominating them, so the gods are main laws and forces of the natural and spiritual worlds above and not just symbols of the great images of Nature.
The attributes of God (spirit) are not these the qualities of the Creator Cause, for God (spirit) is a personal individuality and personal acting is genius, whose boundaries are limited. Osondipote assuming advanced cognitive personality (even if it is intellectually very superior human) energy rays dianoiseos is not possible to pass in perpetuity and extend in this limitless. Dianoiseos rays of the Gods (which is mental personalities), acting on a particular world and have relations only with him. If God (spirit) was the creator of worlds derivatives such mental beings would not have limited intellect, which would be relevant to the institutions. The limitation of intelligence as mental beings, which is fixed by the organs of intelligence, is proof that these creatures are. The intellect of beings, but all intellect, not creative cause but a result. The mind is the creative source of another superior intellect and this is the proliferation of the vigor. The mental energy of God's spirit to explore the causes of creation. On the knowledge of the causes of the creation of God (spirit) establishes the relationship with the cognitive actions of other beings because of this relationship depends on the progress of.
As is apparent, following the above, the expression of monotheistic religion or monotheism is meaningless because the meaning of the word God, as understood in the Greek language can not be attributed to the cause of the Creative Universe. Also, the denial of the existence of spiritual hierarchies, whose members, according to the Greeks, are the gods (spirits) leads to the denial of the existence and operation of the universal laws of development, the existence and operation of which is evident in the contemporary spiritual man who has eluded by medieval obscurantism.
In making every effort for our readers to get a better understanding we offer:
ANOTHER EXPRESSION of THE HELLENIC NATIONAL RELIGION
The Hellenic National Religion is a traditional religion, as
opposed to what is called monotheistic religions (or, according to Spengler,
cosmopolitan religions of the late antiquity). Other traditional religions are,
for instance, Hinduism, Taoism, the Northern Tradition (including Odinism,
Asatru and Vanatru), Druidry, Northern Buddhism etc. These traditional religions,
in our view, are not nature-religions; on the contrary, they all stem from an
extremely high level civilization that ended abruptly with one major
catastrophe, namely the Cataclysm that took place around 10000 BC. We identify
this high level civilization as the Golden Generation (according to the poet
Hesiodus). Traditional religions are, in this context, the remnants of this
civilization that survived within each and every local regeneration of
civilized human societies. In this sense, all traditional religions share the
same truth and carry many identical beliefs. Interestingly, the whole of the
truth was not preserved equally in every ethnic tradition. For example Hinduism
has excellent knowledge of the Genesis of the Cosmos, but did not preserve accurately
the part concerning the evolution of the Psyche (Soul) in the Divine level.
There are several unimportant differences among them, stemming from the
differences of ethnic character, mentality, language, environment, etc. We
believe that each ethnic tradition suits best the specific ethnic group that
preserved it through the centuries. In the Hellenic National Religion, we
observe the Hellenic religion. As an ethnic religion, the Hellenic National
Religion opposes all monotheistic religions, because they tend to create their
own ethnicity, and destroy traditional ethnic basis. The Hellenic National
Religion is a true religion because it provides answers to the final and
extreme questions of Man: What is the Cosmos? Where does it stem from? What is
the fate of the Cosmos? What is Man? Where does he stem from? What is the fate
of Man? What is a God?...........
Cosmologic Principles
The basic Cosmologic principles of the Hellenic National
Religion derive from Orphean theology, as preserved through the centuries in
the Fragmenta Orphicorum. Other sources are the Orphean Hymns to the Gods and
the living oral tradition, which was never extinguished, although it survived
underground:
The Cosmos [viewed as the infinite multitude of Universes
(conglomerates of matter), within the infinite Space and perpetual Time] has
always existed, is self-motivated, self-regulated and ever-changing (evolving).
The Natural Law (in its broadest conception) was never
created, but always existed virtually, in the pre-creative state of our
Universe, the "unspeakable principium".
The Cosmos (either viewed as the infinite multitude of
Universes or as the World) is a value. So is Man and Life in its broadest
conception.
Conscience and Higher Conscience are produced by the
ever-evolving Cosmos; obviously, they appear later in the creation process.
The Cosmos is a physical system that has no place for
arbitrary non-physical entities (like "evil"). The Cosmos is not
opposed by any power. History is cyclic and never-ending. Every Universe in the
Cosmos expands and contracts consecutively, governed by the physical laws (and
only by them); there is neither an ethical meaning in these titanic phenomena,
nor a cause, external to the Cosmos.
Compliance with Modern Science
To put it in a different way, the Cosmology of the Hellenic
traditional religion is absolutely compliant with present-day Physics
(Relativity, Quantum mechanics, Nuclear physics), Mathematics (post-Eucledian
Geometries, Topology), Astronomy and Cosmology, and the theory of non-linear
Dynamics (Chaos). For an excellent review of modern Cosmology and theory of
creation see: Karel Velan: "The Multi-Universe Cosmos", Plenum Press,
New York, 1992. On the contrary, the Hellenic traditional religion is
absolutely non-compliant with, and opposed to the "Big-Bang"
hypothesis of creation and all hypotheses containing "Singularity",
either amended or non-amended: All these hypotheses have been constructed to
suit a (monotheistic) view of the Cosmos, where a super-Natural being, external
to the system, ordered the indefinable "Singularity" to explode.
Evolution of Man
The evolution of Man can be achieved only in harmony with
the Rhythm of the Cosmos, and in accordance with the Divine Law of Evolution.
Man becomes virtuous when he realizes the Natural Law and works to the same
direction with It. With Science and Arts, and by preserving the enviroment, Man
joins, and can be integrated to, the Rhythm of the Cosmos. From a certain level
and up, Man can only evolve by serving his community, city, state and nation.
The utmost service was always considered to be self-sacrifice in the battle, by
which the Citizen earns transition to the first step of the higher order of
evolution of the Psyche: He becomes a Hero.
Evolution of the Community
The service of Man to his community, city, state and nation
has the purpose to help the community evolve as a whole. These groups of
people, according to the Hellenic religion, evolve by practicing freely their
own customs, celebrate their own solemn festivals in public, and worship
divinity in their own way. It follows that any tendency to proselytize or to
impose one's customs, festivals and religion to anybody, has always been
considered a blasphemy, in the context of the traditional Hellenic religion. In
our time, we consider that not only as a blasphemy, but as racism too. We
oppose any kind of missionary approach of other cultures. They disturb
spiritual evolution of others and are deleterious to national dignity and
national economy. They prepare modern day slavery.
Psyche-Mind-Brain: Theogony
The Psyche is a material entity, an essential particle,
generated exactly in the same way as the rest of Matter , from the unification
of the two Primordial Substances, the Continuous and the Particulate (the
Finite Unit and the Indefinite Dyad of the Pythagoreans). This reaction is
governed by Eros . The Psyche is imprinted with experiences, leading to
expansion of its Decorations, as it evolves through inorganic, organic and
living Matter. Late in this evolutionary process, Conscience appears, as an
attribute of Mind. The Mind is an organ composed of subtle Matter, closely
connected to the Brain, a coarsely material organ. The Mind serves the
Conscience during incarnation of the Psyche. Up to a certain point in evolution
of Man, incarnation of the Psyche is imperative, in order for its Decorations
to be preserved. Preservation of the Decorations is an energy consuming
process; this energy is provided by the living body, until the Psyche becomes
able to acquire energy directly from the environment. This point of the
evolutionary process corresponds to the threshold of Divinity. The evolution of
the Psyche is neither a linear, nor a predetermined process, as this would
violate the freedom of choice of the Psyche. Once in the Divine level, the
Psyche evolves further, in a non-linear manner, and with ever increasing
difficulty, and becomes a Hero, a Demon, a God, an Olympian God and further on,
achieving heights of divine glory that Man cannot conceive; this level is
called, by the Hellenic religion, "The Night", meaning that we cannot
see in it. In the Divine level, the Psyche retains its self, personality and
character. Historically, our Gods and Goddesses have always been worshiped. Our Gods are a multitude of apportioned
immortal beings, self-energizing and self-sufficient 'forces', not
personalities, that inhabit this 'Unity' that gave birth to itself. They are
the multiple expressions of this Unity that give substance and order to the
Cosmos and keep it interconnected and harmonious. (Collectively all our Gods
represent the powers of nature, that make up the Cosmos - together they
represent the one true God of Nature). In summary, one can say that the Cosmos has an
inherent tendency to produce Conscience and develop it to the infinite heights
of Divinity.
Gods-Goddesses-Divine Law
According to the Hellenic religion, the Gods did/do not
create the Cosmos; on the contrary, they represent highest order products of
the Cosmos. They cannot violate the Natural Law; on the contrary they observe
and supervise the Law. The Natural Law has twelve divisions, six concerning the
Continuous Substance, and six the Particulate. Six Olympian Gods, of the male
gender, supervise the laws of the former, and six, of the female gender,
supervise the laws of the latter. The two sacred Essential Substances are of
equal importance to the Cosmos; so are the Gods and Goddesses, Male and Female,
acting in harmony.
Our religion is for the moment underground as there is much
discrimination, in our country. The celebrations are not solemn and are
performed mostly in private; very seldom in public, and very cautiously; we run
the risk of being accused as Satanists, which will not be tolerated by our
social environment. Nevertheless, we do celebrate the following:
The full moon, every month. At the same occasion we worship
the God of the month, as follows:
Hera (7th) Gamelion, Moon of January
Poseidon (8th) Anthestirion, Moon of February
Athena (Minerva) (9th) Elaphivolion, Moon of March
Aphrodite (Venus) (10th) Mounichion, Moon of April
Apollon (11th) Thargilion, Moon of May
Hermes (12th) Skirophorion, Moon of June
Zeus (Jupiter) (1st) Hecatomvaion, Μοοn of July
Dimitra (Demeter) (2nd) Metageitnion, Moon of August
Hestia (Vesta) (3rd) Voidromion, Moon of September
Aris (Mars) (4th) Pyanepsion, Moon of October
Artemis (Diana) (5th) Maimaktirion, Moon of November
Hephestus (Vulcan) (6th) Poseideon, Moon of December
The 1st full moon after the Spring Equinox: Anthesteria, the
lesser Mysteries, in honour of Dionysus and the souls of the deceaced.
The 1st full moon after the Summer Solstice: Olympia
(Olympic Games every 4 years), in honour of Zeus & Hera.
The 1st full moon after the Fall Equinox: Elefsinian
(greater) Mysteries, in honour of Dimitra & Persefoni.
The 1st full moon after the Winter Solstice: Pythia at
Delphi, in honour of Dionysus and Apollon.
There is of course a huge number (about 400) of other known
ancient festivals that nobody celebrates (as such) for the time being. It
should be noted that the totality of Greek Orthodox Christian festivals stem
from ancient Greek (pagan) festivals,
that the Hellenic people never gave up, so the Orthodox-Christian church
thought appropriate to embody, for the purpose of making the people forget the
real meaning and origin of the festivals.

WHAT DOES
THE GREATEST GOD OF ALL REPRESENT - THE GOD ZEUS...
THE ODYSSEY OF THE IMMORTAL SOUL that says
what our great god Zeus represents.
The name of the greatest God Zeus - Dias tells
us the nature, energy and power of the supreme God of the Greeks.
As Socrates tells us in Plato's work
Cratylus, the name of the God Dias - Zeus is a whole word, that is, a sentence,
a word that we divide into two, with the result that some call him Zena
(Homeric hymn) and others Zeus.
From the moment we join these two names, we
immediately recognize the nature of God, because he is the cause of life (Zeus
= life, so it is the cause of Life) both of our own life and of all other
living beings.
Without Zeus there is no life. (for by him
we live).
So it is God who owns the intelligible (he
is the universal mind), and directs all the worlds of all dimensions always
based on the properties and the universal law which we Greeks have personified.
Dias also denotes the cause DIA of which all
things were made (pantogelthos according to the Orphic hymn).
Zenas denotes the life-giving flow of
everything. From the birth of a star, a planet, a galaxy to the birth of beings.
Apthitos - pantogenelthos - beginning of all
and the last of them - sesichthon (σεισίχθον) - increasingly pure (Orphic hymn
DIA).
The name Zeus means life-giver, due to the
fact that he is the begetter of gods and men, or from the ancient Greek verb
zeugnimi (ζεύγνυμι) meaning to connect, to unite.
Bringing together (ZEUS) all the universal,
natural forces, energies and laws, ensures the order, sequence and evolution of
everything in the universe.
Starting to study the Orphic hymn to Dias,
Orpheus calls our God Dia - Zeus as immortal, which means that his existence,
his energy, his power is immortal, time (KRONOS) cannot wear him down.
The coupling and division of opposite sides,
which create, multiply, evolve and regenerate continuously.
For us beings……
The beginning is made with the first
universal energy, the attraction (Aphrodite) as we mentioned above of the two
opposites of male and female and the coupling (ZEUS) of visible matter with the
immortal invisible ethereal soul, which results in the beginning of the cycle
of life (ZENAS ...EV ZIN) as the cycle of life is completed, the separation
(DIAS) of visible and invisible matter occurs, i.e. the body and the soul.
God - Dias, as we said above, also rules the
conceivable world.
The conceivable world is etymological in the
Platonic work as that which can be perceived with the mind, intellectual.
Hippocrates said that... For there are two,
science and glory, in which one believes, and the other is ignorant... that is,
true knowledge and belief are two different things. One gives birth to science,
the other to ignorance.
So our god Dias - Zeus, since he rules the
conceivable world, is the universal mind.
In the personifications, that is, the
statues that our ancestors built to honor the God Zeus, they depict him holding
a scepter in one hand which has a globe and two wings on top, the size of the
scepter is stated by our mythology to be twenty four meters as an indication of
his magnificence both in the universal noticeable and in the tangible and
material world (Titanic and Olympian pantheon). Also in his other hand he holds
the personification of the Goddess of Victory.
So it is the personification of the total
universal intelligence. Through this property, the personification of his
intellect will later be born, the goddess Athena, which we will analyze below,
while the union of the energy of God - Zeus in its union with other energies
and forces will create new Gods and Demigods that complete the trunk of our
initiatory knowledge..
(excerpt from the book THE ODYSSEY OF THE
IMMORTAL SOUL with an explanatory character.)
THEMISTOCLES THESSALOS
....................................
Plato, Socrates and Aristotle, apart from being great philosophers and much more, were also theologians of our ancient Hellenic religion.
This is what we are now studying in the ILIODROMION classes in the last 4 weeks. Below is a reasonably close summary...
Plato has written several accounts about the afterlife in several of his works.
The most important are in "Politeia" and "Phaedon". Some of them have become better known but there are also some points that show another more mystical and religious dimension in Plato's secret teaching. We will talk about such a passage from the book "Phaedon" in this article.
It is a general impression that in the Pythagorean and Platonic tradition, the fate of the soul after death is given and final, depending on the injustices it committed while in the body. But this is not so.
In the description we have in Phaedo we see in principle that there are 5 levels in the afterlife: (5 rivers: Ocean, Acheron, Pyriphlegethon, Stygyon, Cokytos). Souls judged to have lived an average life between virtue and vice are taken to the lake Acherusia and there they reside, gradually cleansed of their crimes and released to be reincarnated again.
The rest, who committed grave crimes, through the rivers, will fall into Tartarus which is the lowest level, a kind of Hell. Souls with the worst offenses will not make it out of Tartarus. For the rest, Plato says:
"Other souls, however, who have committed great but curable offenses, come out every year from Tartarus and through the rivers reach the lake Acherusia every year. When they are transported and reach Lake Acherusia, they shout and call, some for those they killed, others for those they injured. They call, beg and beg to be allowed to come out of the lake and be taken back again. If they are persuaded they come up and their calamities end, otherwise they are carried back to Tartarus and thence back to the rivers, they continue to suffer and their torment does not cease until they have convinced those who wronged them. This punishment was imposed on them by the judges.”
It is a very important passage where Plato shows that the fate of the victim is somehow tied to the fate of the perpetrator. Divine justice is not enough to punish the soul. The duration of the punishment of a soul who has committed serious enough offenses is not determined by God but by past victims. The souls of the victims are called upon at regular intervals to judge whether they have forgiven the perpetrators of the injustice they have suffered. But even the punished souls have the opportunity every now and then to ask for redemption and forgiveness from their victims.
Although it is not clearly stated in Plato's mythological account, it seems as if the souls of the victims also linger each year on the shores of the Acherusian lake to see their abusers and murderers come and beg for mercy. And the dilemma for these souls is whether they will learn to forgive. Because if they do not forgive those from whom they have suffered harm, they too, in a way, are "punished" by their own bitterness, staying in the afterlife. They may not be tormented like guilty souls, but the consequence for them too is to remain stagnant, in that state and not take advantage of the opportunity for another incarnation that will give them new opportunities to become more virtuous.
The punishment for impure souls is, by necessity, to be tortured periodically in Tartarus and try to beg for mercy every year. The punishment for the victims' souls is, voluntarily, to remain stuck in their bitterness and inability to forgive.
Plato is a "wizard" of allegory. It gives, on the one hand, a symbolic outline of the Orphic and Pythagorean conceptions of the afterlife. But on the other hand, it also gives an image of life here, the life of the bond between the perpetrator and the victim in the midst of everyday life.
With this narrative, Plato gives messages from the most important to the least:
* Do not be unjust, because you will be punished.
* Even if you have wronged, you must repent and ask for mercy and forgiveness from your victims.
*** The virtuous and the heroic go to the Elysian Fields and the Blessed Isles.
**** The so called Church Fathers in their deliberations to give a deeper meaning to Christianity during their so called Holy Synods borrowed and copied an enormous amount from our ancient Hellenic religion. They of course distorted them in order to fit in with the Jewish paradigm of Christianity.
*** We ask our friends who have a better understanding of this particular part of our philosophical and theological understanding to correct us on any point we have expressed.

I love your flow of information; you started with the importance of preserving the Greek
ReplyDeleteidentity, the danger of globalism, and the threat of mixed marriages to the Greeks, it is
great how you show that the church that is thought of as a Greek orthodox church, might
be the instrument that dismantle the Greek identity with mix marriages with people that prescribe to the same church such as the Slovak people. It is worth mentioning that your description to the ancient Greek religion as the only unifying and preserving for the Greek identity is very valid, for it was made in Greece for Greeks. The link of the Greek gods to nature is fascinating; many people did not go that much in depth to understand that glorious lost wise religion. The Greeks gave us the modern western civilization throughout the ages including the age of enlightenment; it is the Greek duty to preserve them selves as a great nation, so they can contribute more to mankind.
Iam glad you enjoyed the article.Yes the Orthodox christian religion does open the door to mixed marriages with other christians from other nationalities.Thank you also for your encouraging comments.

ReplyDeleteThank you Dr I. Psomiadis for your kind words of encouragement! There is much more that needs to be done, it is people like yourself that lift our spirit so as to be able to carry on this work.
ReplyDeleteHowever any assistance from our many friends is always appreciated and accepted with good-will!
We need someone with the correct knowledge to write for us a "Hellenic Religious National Hymn", based on our religion, on the God Apollo and to include the word "ΥΠΕΡΜΑΧΩ" and to be sung to the same tune and melody of the christian IPERMAHO!
