II. Francis Bacon’s Last Letter.

In commemoration of the Resurrection

(Alfred Dodd)

526846

Every schoolboy knows the story told in their history books how Francis Bacon one snowy day on or about All Fools Day, 1 April 1626, drove with the King’s Physician, Sir John Wedderburn, to Highgate and that at the foot of the Hill he stopped, bought a fowl, and stuffed it with snow with his own hands in order to ascertain whether bodies could be preserved by cold.  During the procedure, we are told, he caught a chill, and instead of Dr. Wedderburn driving him back to Gray’s Inn (whence he had come) or taking him to some warm house, the worthy doctor took him to an empty summer mansion on Highgate Hill, Arundel House, where there was only a caretaker; and there Francis Bacon was put into a bed which was damp and had only been “warmed by a Panne” (a very strange thing for a doctor to do) with the result that within a few days he died of pneumonia.  Dr. Rawley, his chaplain, says that he died “in the early morning of the 9^th April, a day on which was COMMEMORATED the Resurrection of Our Saviour”.

That is the story and this is Francis Bacon’s last letter:

14285 = To the Earle of Arundel and Surrey.

526846

Here the letter ends abruptly.  Whatever else was written has been suppressed by Sir Tobie Matthew, one of the Rosicrosse, on which Spedding remarks, “It is a great pity the editor did not think fit to print the whole.”  For some mysterious reason the letter was not printed until 1669 in Matthew’s Collection, captioned “This was the last letter that he ever wrote.”

* Inscription on St. Peters Basilica’s façade to mark its completion.

¹ With the judgment of Nestor, the genius of Socrates, the art of Virgil,

earth covers him, the people mourn him, Olympus has him.

² The Gnostic concept of Jesus Patibilis

….Jesus is here the god with the mission of revelation to man, a more specialized hypostasis or emanation of the Messenger, whose mission was to the captive Light in general and preceded the creation of man.  That it is he who makes Adam eat from the Tree of Knowledge explains the Christian accusation that the Manichaeans equated Christ with the serpent in Paradise.  Of the content of this revelation, the doctrine concerning „his own self cast into all things“ requires comment. It expresses the other aspect of this divine figure: in addition to being the source of all revelatory activity in the history of mankind, he is the personification of all the Light mixed into matter; that is, he is the suffering form of Primal Man.  This original and profound interpretation of the figure of Christ was an important article of the Manichaean creed and is known as the doctrine of the Jesus patibilis, the „passible Jesus“ who „hangs from every tree,“ „is served up bound in every dish,“ „every day is born, suffers, and dies.“ He is dispersed in all creation, but his most genuine realm and embodiment seems to be the vegetable world, that is, the most passive and the only innocent form of life.  Yet at the same time with the active aspect of his nature he is transmundane Nous who, coming from above, liberates this captive substance and continually until the end of the world collects it, i.e., himself, out of the physical dispersal.  (Hans Jonas, The Gnostic Religion – The Message of the Alien God and the Beginnings of Christianity, Second Edition, revised, Beacon Press, Boston, 1963, pp. 228-229)

³Abomination of Desolation

(Details below)

Message posted to friends on 26 February 2014:

While in Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097. This is the Cipher Sum of some three dozen names of persons, institutions, dates and events during the reference period, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

Útskýring á Pýþagórísku táknmáli

Njálu og Egilssögu.

Njála og Egilssaga fjalla um þroskaferil Manns/Örheims. Í fornri sköpunarmýtu er Maður það sem kallast Platonic Tyrant/Harðstjóri (729 = 9 í þriðja veldi) við Upphaf ferilsins.

Njálsbrenna er tákn umbreytingar í Sál Harðstjóra/Heiðingja fyrir tilstilli ELDS Heilags Anda/Spiritus Sanctus.

Í Egilssögu eru Böðvarr og Gunnarr tákn stríðandi eðlisþátta í Sál Egils (sbr. Hamlet hjá Shakespeare: To be, or not to be), sem hverfa (deyja) þegar meðfæddur neisti Heilags Anda í Sál Egils blossar upp sem Logandi Sverð (tákn Guðs í sjálfum þér í erindi Steingríms Thorsteinssonar).

Neistinn blossar upp í annað sinn við lok ferilsins (Dagshríðar Þormóðs Kolbrúnarskálds). Í frásögninni af Njálsbrennu er hulið kveðið (hugtak í 8. k. Skáldskaparmáls) um Snorra Sturluson sem fullþroska Sál sem er Maður sem Ímynd Guðs.

Fundu handritsbrot Njálu í Seattle

Mbl. 16. okt. 2016.

Gísli Sigurðsson, prófessor við Stofnun Árna Magnússonar, hefur fengið afhent handritsbrot af Njálu frá bókasafnara í nágrenni Seattle. Bókasafnarinn, sem heitir Williard Larsson og er af íslenskum ættum, afhenti Gísla handritsbrotið í gær.

„Við höfðum áður reynt að skrifa til hans og ná sambandi við hann, en það hafði aldrei tekist, fyrr en nú,“ segir Gísli í samtali við mbl.is. Segir hann að fundinum með Larsson hafi meðal annars verið komið á að frumkvæði Arnar Arnar, ræðismanns Íslands í Minneapolis, sem færði Árnasafni Melsteðs-Eddu um aldamótin.

„Öll handrit eru einstök, það liggur í hlutarins eðli, og því er alltaf gaman að finna einhver sem maður vissi ekki áður af. Handritið er mjög ungt, eða skrifað rétt eftir miðja nítjándu öld,“ segir Gísli.

Kann að vera uppskafningur

Á Facebook-síðu Gísla, þar sem hann deildi fréttum af fundinum, bendir Davíð Ólafsson sagnfræðingur á að handritið kunni að hafa verið skrifað upp af Guðlaugi Magnússyni, vinnumanni á Fellsströnd í Dalasýslu, sem fór til Vesturheims árið 1874.

Skinnkápa er utan um handritið og segir Gísli að það kunni að vera svokallaður uppskafningur.

„Það er þegar texti hefur verið á skinninu en síðar skafinn af. Ekki er hægt að sjá það með berum augum en með myndatækni er hins vegar hægt að sjá hvort sú sé raunin. En auðvitað getur hún líka verið venjuleg skinnkápa. Það er ekkert í hendi með það.“

Finnst Gauks saga í Vesturheimi?

Mörgum verður þá eflaust hugsað til Gauks sögu Trandilssonar, sem aldrei hefur fundist. Í Möðruvallabók er eyða á milli Njálu og Egils sögu og segir þar, illlæsilega: „Láttu rita hér við Gauks sögu Trandilssonar, mér er sagt að [Herra] Grímur eigi hana.“

„Það er auðvitað frægasta týnda sagan og fólk er alltaf að bíða eftir því að hún finnist. Hugmyndin er einmitt sú, með nýju framtaki Árnastofnunar, að leita uppi handrit sem kunna að leynast vestanhafs.“

Vísar Gísli þar til verkefnisins, Í fótspor Árna Magnússonar, sem ætlað er að koma upp stafrænum gagnagrunni utan um skrif sem voru í eigu eða búin til af Íslendingum í Vesturheimi.

Meiri frægðar hefur Snorri vænt sér af kvæðum sínum, einkum Háttatali.  Sturlunga saga getur víða um skáldskap hans og þær sæmdir, sem hann hlaut að launum, og Snorri undi því sjálfur stórilla, er Sunnlendingar gerðu spott að kvæðum hans (Sturl. II, 96).  Hann var of mjög barn síns tíma til að geta skilið, að dróttkvæðin voru deyjandi list og hann sjálfur meiri bragsnillingur en skáld.

 Foreword

Snorri Sturluson‘s nephew and literary collaborator, Sturla Þórðarson (d. 1284), was the author of Íslendingasaga (Saga of Icelanders), which is by far the most important source of biographical information about Snorri Sturluson. However, such information is not to be taken at face value because Íslendingasaga is first and foremost a hidden guide to aspects of the mythical material with which Snorri and Sturla were concerned in most of their literary works.

A case in point is the material in Section I below, where seemingly historical material provides cover for aspects of the framework within which the Saga literature portrays the role of Snorri and Sturla as pioneers in transforming Old and New Testament and ancient Settlement Myths into a coherent mythical account of Man‘s moral and spiritual evolution from primordial Man-Beast to Man in God‘s Image.

Briefly, Section I gives a bird‘s eye view of Snorri Sturluson‘s youth, mother and other relatives and his marriage to the daughter of a wealthy man from Borg á Mýrum – an estate where the title character of Egilssaga and relative of Snorri – Egill Skalla-Grímsson – is said to have lived 200 years earlier. The Cipher Value of the account serves as a reference marker for important pieces of “hidden cipher poetry“ in the Shakespeare/King James Bible opus as shown below.

While in Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097. This is the Cipher Sum of some three dozen names of persons, institutions, dates and events during the reference period, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

Hamlet’s Mill:

An Essay Investigating the Origins of Human Knowledge

And Its Transmission Through Myth

Foreword

© Giorgio Santillana

This is meant to be only an essay.  It is a first reconnaissance of a realm well-nigh unexplored and uncharted.  From whichever way one enters it, one is caught in the same bewildering circular complexity, as in a labyrinth, for it has no deductive order in the abstract sense, but instead resembles an organism tightly closed in itself, or even better, a monumental „Art of the Fugue.“

The figure of Hamlet as a favorable starting point came by chance.  Many other avenues offered themselves, rich in strange symbols and beckoning with great images, but the choice went to Hamlet because he led the mind on a truly inductive quest through a familiar landscape – and one which has the merit of its literary setting.  Here is a character deeply present to our awareness, in whom ambiguities and uncertainties, tormented self-questioning and dispassionate insight give a presentiment of the modern mind.  His personal drama was that he had to be a hero, but still try to avoid the role Destiny assigned him.  His lucid intellect remained above the conflict of motives – in other words, his was and is a truly contemporary consciousness.  And yet this character whom the poet made one of us, the first unhappy intellectual, concealed a past as a legendary being, his features predetermined, preshaped by long-standing myth.  There was a numinous aura around him, and many clues led up to him.  But it was a surprise to find behind the mask an ancient and all-embracing cosmic power – the original master of the dreamed-of first age of the world.

Yet in all his guises he remained strangely himself.  The original Amlóði, as his name was in Icelandic legend, shows the same characteristics of melancholy and high intellect.  He, too, is a son dedicated to avenge his father, a speaker of cryptic but inescapable truths, an elusive carrier of Fate who must yield once his mission is accomplished and sink once more into concealment in the depths of time to which he belongs:  Lord of the Golden Age, the Once and Future King.

This essay will follow the figure farther and farther afield, from the Northland to Rome, from there to Finland, Iran, and India; he will appear again unmistakably in Polynesian legend.  Many other Dominions and Powers will materialize to frame him within the proper order.

Amlóði was identified, in the crude and vivid imagery of the Norse, by the ownership of a fabled mill which, in his own time, ground out peace and plenty.  Later, in decaying times, it ground out salt; and now finally, having landed at the bottom of the sea, it is grinding rock and sand, creating a vast whirlpool, the Maelstrom (i.e. the grinding stream, from the [Icelandic] verb mala,“to grind“), which is supposed to be a way to the land of the dead.  This imagery stands, as the evidence develops, for an astronomical process, the secular shifting of the sun through the signs of the zodiac which determines world-ages, each numbering thousands of years.  Each age brings a World Era, a Twilight of the Gods.  Great structures collapse; pillars topple which supported the great fabric; floods and cataclysms herald the shaping of a new world. (David R. Godine, Boston, Second Paperback Ed., 1983, pp. 1-2.)

Message posted to friends on 26 February 2014:

While in Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097. This is the Cipher Sum of some three dozen names of persons, institutions, dates and events during the reference period, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

Giorgio Santillana

(Hamlet’s Mill)

Yet in all his guises [Hamlet] remained strangely himself.  The original Amlóði, as his name was in Icelandic legend, shows the same characteristics of melancholy and high intellect.  He, too, is a son dedicated to avenge his father, a speaker of cryptic but inescapable truths, an elusive carrier of Fate who must yield once his mission is accomplished and sink once more into concealment in the depths of time to which he belongs:  Lord of the Golden Age, the Once and Future King.

² Translated by Horace Gregory:

And now the measure of my song is done:

The work has reached its end; the book is mine,

None shall unwrite these words: nor angry Jove,

Nor war, nor fire, nor flood,

Nor venomous time that eats our lives away.

Then let that morning come, as come it will,

When this disguise I carry shall be no more,

And all the treacherous years of life undone,

And yet my name shall rise to heavenly music,

The deathless music of the circling stars.

As long as Rome is the Eternal City

These lines shall echo from the lips of men,

As long as poetry speaks truth on earth,

That immortality is mine to wear.

(The Metamorphoses, Mentor Books, 1960, p. 441)
