I. The Sealed Booke

Sir Isaac Newton worked for decades in a fruitless attempt to unseal the “sealed booke” mentioned by Old Testament prophets Isaiah and Daniel in the following passages (King James Bible, 1611):

Isaiah, Ch. 29:11-12

16598 = And the vsion* of all is become vnto you

16125 = as the wordes of a booke that is sealed,

17547 = which men deliuer to one that is learned,

11090 = saying, Reade this, I pray thee:

14649 = and hee saith, I cannot, for it is sealed:

21003 = And the booke is deliuered to him that is not learned,

11090 = saying, Reade this, I pray thee:

10004 = and he saith, I am not learned.

118106

Daniel Ch. 12:4

18611 = But thou, O Daniel, shut vp the wordes,

17360 = and seale the booke euen to the time of the ende:

11314 = many shall runne to and fro,

12792 = and knowledge shall bee increased.

60077

* This is how “vision” is spelled in the text. Francis Bacon, who had the manuscript of the Bible with him for a year before it was printed, used spelling “mistakes” to draw a reader’s attention to key parts of texts. Bacon placed the Latin version of the second half of Daniel 12:4 on the frontispiece of his major work, Advancement of Learning, published in 1605.

 II. Light of the World Crucified

In the Augustan-Saga-Shakespeare tradition, Jesus Christ is Light of the World crucified on the Cross of Ignorance. Snorri Sturluson’s “murder” on 23 September 1241 and the anniversary of his “death” are used in “hidden poetry” on mythical themes in the Saga-Shakespeare literary tradition as Alpha and Omega of Light of the World’s Mission to an Ignorant World.

1000 = Light of the World

4119 = Ignorance

2307 = 23 September

1241 = 1241

              Alpha – Light of the World Crucified/Murdered

Matt. 27:37

16777 = THIS IS IESVS THE KING OF THE IEWES

Mark 15:26

9442 = THE KING OF THE IEWES

Luke 23:38

13383 = THIS IS THE KING OF THE IEWES

John 19:19

17938 = IESVS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE IEWES

             Omega – Pay-back time

13159 = Ártíð Snorra fólgsnarjarls – Anniversary of the death of Snorri hidden earl

4000 = Flaming Sword – The Globe set on fire

             Light of the World At Alpha and Omega – Matt. 10:34

19148 = Thinke not that I am come to send peace on earth:

15592 = I came not to send peace, but a sword.

118106

III. The Booke Sealed/Unsealed

60077 = Daniel 12:4

4385 = Hagia Sophia – Divine Wisdom

7000 = Microcosmos – Man/Brave New World in God’s Image

             Light of the World Unseals the Booke

8753 = Jesus Kristus

4000 = Flaming Sword

4988 = The Vatican

7615 = Get thee hence, Satan. (Matt. 4:10)

96818

IV. Malachy’s Last Pope Prophecy

13831 = In persecutione extrema S.R.E.

12051 = sedebit Petrus Romanus,

22136 = qui pascet oues in multis tribulationibus:

26227 = quibus transactis ciuitas septicollis diruetur,

22573 = & Iudex tremêdus iudicabit populum suum. Finis.

96818

In translation:
(In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations; when they are over, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the terrible or fearsome Judge will judge his people. The End.)

Isaac Newton – The Last Magician

Newton, the Man

by John Maynard Keynes

Why do I call him a magician? Because he looked on the whole universe and all that is in it as a riddle, as a secret which could be read by applying pure thought to certain evidence, certain mystic clues which God had laid about the world to allow a sort of philosopher’s treasure hunt to the esoteric brotherhood. He believed that these clues were to be found partly in the evidence of the heavens and in the constitution of elements (and that is what gives the false suggestion of his being an experimental natural philosopher), but also partly in certain papers and traditions handed down by the brethren in an unbroken chain back to the original cryptic revelation in Babylonia. He regarded the universe as a cryptogram set by the Almighty – just as he himself wrapt the discovery of the calculus in a cryptogram when he communicated with Leibniz. By pure thought, by concentration of mind, the riddle, he believed, would be revealed to the initiate.

He did read the riddle of the heavens. And he believed that by the same powers of his introspective imagination he would read the riddle of the Godhead, the riddle of past and future events divinely fore-ordained, the riddle of the elements and their constitution from an original undifferentiated first matter, the riddle of health and of immortality. All would be revealed to him if only he could persevere to the end, uninterrupted, by himself, no one coming into the room, reading, copying, testing-all by himself, no interruption for God’s sake, no disclosure, no discordant breakings in or criticism, with fear and shrinking as he assailed these half-ordained, half-forbidden things, creeping back into the bosom of the Godhead as into his mother’s womb. ‘Voyaging through strange seas of thought alone’, not as Charles Lamb ‘a fellow who believed nothing unless it was as clear as the three sides of a triangle’.

[…]

In the eighteenth century and since, Newton came to be thought of as the first and greatest of the modern age of scientists, a rationalist, one who taught us to think on the lines of cold and untinctured reason.

I do not see him in this light. I do not think that any one who has pored over the contents of that box which he packed up when he finally left Cambridge in 1696 and which, though partly dispersed, have come down to us, can see him like that. Newton was not the first of the age of reason. He was the last of the magicians, the last of the Babylonians and Sumerians, the last great mind which looked out on the visible and intellectual world with the same eyes as those who began to build our intellectual inheritance rather less than 10,000 years ago. Isaac Newton, a posthumous child bom with no father on Christmas Day, 1642, was the last wonderchild to whom the Magi could do sincere and appropriate homage.

[…]

During these twenty-five years of intense study mathematics and astronomy were only a part, and perhaps not the most absorbing, of his occupations. Our record of these is almost wholly confined to the papers which he kept and put in his box when he left Trinity for London.

Let me give some brief indications of their subject. They are enormously voluminous – I should say that upwards of 1,000,000 words in his handwriting still survive. They have, beyond doubt, no substantial value whatever except as a fascinating sidelight on the mind of our greatest genius.

Let me not exaggerate through reaction against the other Newton myth which has been so sedulously created for the last two hundred years. There was extreme method in his madness. All his unpublished works on esoteric and theological matters are marked by careful learning, accurate method and extreme sobriety of statement. They are just as sane as the Principia, if their whole matter and purpose were not magical. They were nearly all composed during the same twenty-five years of his mathematical studies.

V. The Saga Cipher Reference Value

A certain Saga Cipher Reference Value – 22565 – has been used by leading European minds to document their familiarity with the Saga Cipher which has remained a closely guarded secret. I discovered it in the 1970’s encrypted in a single sentence in the oldest Icelandic skin manuscript – a small sheet known as Reykholtsmáldagi or the Reykholt Covenant. The Reference Cipher Value is derived as follows:

1000 = Light of the World – A fixed value

7000 = Microcosmos – Creation/Man in God’s Image – Saga Cipher Value

4000 = Flaming Sword – A fixed value

10565 = JHWH in Hebrew gematria, 10-5-6-5.

22565

The Saga Cipher Reference Value is readily observed in key texts placed on record by such individuals as Dante, Francis Bacon, Francisco Goya and Victor Hugo. And, last but not least, also by Sir Isaac Newton.

VI. Newton’s Secret Pseudonym

Isaac Newton used a pseudonym in his secret research and writings on alchemy and bible studies. With his pseudonym – JEHOVAH SANCTUS UNUS or JHWH/Jehova Holy One – Newton placed on record that Snorri Sturluson was the secret giant on whose shoulders he stood as the last of the magicians:

11205 = JEHOVAH SANCTUS UNUS

1 = Monad/God

11359 = Snorri Sturluson

Einar Ól. Sveinsson, útgefandi Brennu-Njáls Sögu fyrir hönd Hins íslenzka fornritafélags fyrir sextíu árum, ræðir all ítarlega um leitina að höfundi Njálu í formála. Þar segir í upphafi:

„’Ok lýk ek þar Brennu-Njáls sögu‘. Hver var sá ek, sem þetta ritaði? Illu heilli nefndi hann ekki nafn sitt, og engin forn heimild getur þessa afreks, sem þó skipar höfundinum á bekk með snillingum heimsbókmenntanna.‟ (bls. cviii)

Með hliðsjón af ætluðum ritunartíma Njálu á síðari hluta 13. aldar segir Einar Ól. m.a. þetta: „Svo framarlega sem hald er í [þeirri tímasetningu] þarf [ekki] að hugleiða, hvort vísindamennska og stíll Snorra Sturlusonar sé sams konar og Njálu eða öðruvísi.”

„Hver var sá ek, sem þetta ritaði?‟ spyr Einar Ól. og horfir þar fram hjá lokasetningu sögunnar í X-flokki handrita, sem hann tilgreinar neðanmáls í sögulok: „Ok lúku vér þar Brennu-Njáls sögu.”

Af þriðja rithættinum – í Gráskinnuauka – má ráða að engi sé Höfundur Njálu, „Ok lýkr þar Brennu-Njáls sögu.”

Engi er eldri mynd óákveðna fornafnsins enginn. Tilvísun til óræðrar merkingar hugtaksins engi kann að felast í tölugildi þríeinnar tilvísunar til Höfundar Njálu, Ek-Vér-Engi, 4222, sbr. Móses, 3222, og Heimsljós, 1000.

Einar Pálsson ályktaði að Maðr, 1661, vísaði til Sköpunarmáttar Tilveru/Mónads, 1 sbr. 1 + 3222 + 1000 + 1661 = 5884.

Sbr. einnig Reykjaholt, 4884, og Heimsljós, 1000, sem goðsögn Dráps Snorra Sturlusonar segir hafa verið ‘drepið’ (slökkt) í Kjallara undir Reykjaholti – les: Sæti Jarðligrar skilningar/lægri hvata mannskepnu/Anus.

Uppsalabók Eddu

Í bloggi dags. 20.09.14 (Snorri Sturluson í annat sinn) birti ég umsögn Sigurðar Nordals um Uppsalabók Eddu:

Í vörzlu Háskólabókasafnsins í Uppsölum er íslenzk skinnbók frá því um 1300 með svolátandi fyrirsögn (rauðletraðri): „Bók þessi heitir Edda. Hana hefir saman setta Snorri Sturlu sonur, eftir þeim hætti, sem hér er skipað. Er fyrst frá Ásum og Ými, þar næst Skáldskaparmál og heiti margra hluta, síðast Háttatal, er Snorri hefir ort um Hákon konung og Skúla hertoga.” Eðlilegast er að skilja upphaf fyrirsagnarinnar: „Bók þessi heitir Edda”, á þá leið, að svo hafi höfundur sjálfur nefnt bókina. […]

Því miður er það of sjaldgæft í íslenzkum fornritum, að kostur sé slíkrar fræðslu um nafn og höfund bókar. Væri því eðlilegt, að Uppsalabók nyti þess og væri metin umfram önnur handrit Eddu. […]

Eigi að síður gerir samanburður Uppsalabókar við önnur handrit Eddu, og þá sérstaklega Konungsbók, torvelt að trúa því, að Snorri Sturluson hafi sett bókina saman „eftir þeim hætti, sem hér er skipað”. Það lætur nærri, jafnvel þótt ekkert annað Edduhandrit væri til samanburðar og engar hugmyndir um skýrleik Snorra réðu dómi vorum, að samt væri erfitt að trúa honum eða reyndar nokkrum höfundi til þess að skiljast við bók, sem hann væri að setja saman, í því ástandi, sem Edda er í Uppsalabók. Því betur sem texti hennar er athugaður og um hann hugsað, því meiri ráðgáta verður skrifarinn og öll vinnubrögð hans – hvað fyrir honum hefur vakað upphaflega og hvers vegna er eins og hann sé sífellt að sjá sig um hönd og brjóta upp á nýjum tiltækjum í vali og skipun efnisins. En um þetta skal ekki fjölyrt hér. Eina prentun Eddu eftir Uppsalabók er í fárra manna höndum, og lýsing hennar og frekari rökræður um hana yrðu of langt mál. Einstaka fræðimenn, sem hafa reynt að berja í bresti hennar, hafa yfirleitt ekki getað greitt úr þessu máli. (Sigurður Nordal, Ritverk I, Mannlýsingar, bls. 34-35.)

***

Síðan sagði frá för minni fyrir 30 árum á Landsbókasafnið þar sem ég skrifaði niður fyrirsögn Uppsalabókar Eddu stafrétta eftir ljósprentuðu eintaki safnsins. Texti hennar og tölugildi eru eftirfarandi:

8542 = Bók þessi heitir Edda.

35891 = Hana hevir saman setta Snorri Sturlo son eptir þeim hætti, sem hér er skipat.

Background

The Tragedie of Hamlet – A Footnote to Plato¹

Many years ago I suggested to my friend, the late Einar Pálsson (author of Rætur íslenzkra menningar – The Roots of Icelandic Culture) that the single most famous phrase in the works of Shakespeare – To be, or not to be; that is the question – should perhaps be read as To be, or not to be; that is the Quest, ION. This would identify Prince Hamlet’s trials and tribulations with Man’s Quest for the Holy Grail or Graal and link the quest to that innate human faculty which Plato ascribed to ION in his work by that name.

Advent of Christianity in the “year” 1000 A.D. is dealt with in Chapters 100-105 of Brennu-Njálssaga. As always in the case of enciphered “hidden poetry” in the Augustan-Saga-Shakespeare literary tradition, one would look to the Alpha and Omega sentences of the Section on Christianity for clues that might identify Brennu-Njálssaga with the Quest of the Holy Grail literary tradition. The two sentences read as follows:

12685 = Höfðingjaskipti varð í Nóregi. (There was a change of chieftains in Norway.)

11274 = Fara menn við þat heim af þingi. (With that people returned home from Althing.)

23959

As in 1000 + 5327 + 3450 + 11359 + 1654 + 1796 + 4000 – 4627 = 23959, where

1000 = The “year” of Christianity.

5327 = Brennu-Njáll

3450 = Þórðr – Grandson of Njáll and Bergþóra who asked to “die” with them in the fire.

11359 = Snorri Sturluson – Playcast as Þórðr at the outset of his Quest of the Holy Grail

1654 = ION – as in Snorri’s “son”, JON murtr or Little John (of later Robin Hood fame?)

1796 = GRAAL – Quest of the Holy Grail.

4000 = Flaming Sword – ‘Sent’ by Christ (Matt. 10:34)

-4627 = Tími (2315) and Rúm (2312) no more – Prince Hamlet’s ‘mortal coil shuffled off‘.

23959

Einar Pálsson, whose encyclopedic knowledge of the roots of Icelandic culture was shunned by quixotic scholars at the University of Iceland, identified Njáll Þorgeirsson, 9299, a.k.a Brennu-Njáll, with Mythical Monad.

In the saga, one of two brothers has usurped the „treasure“ of his erstwhile „wife“, daughter of Iceland’s „wisest“ man. Gunnarr, her cousin, undertakes to recover the „treasure“ from the usurper, and seeks Njáll’s advice on how to proceed.

Njáll paused for reflection, and then gave Gunnarr detailed advice which he prefaced with the words: „Hugsat hefi ek málit, ok mun þat duga,“ 14660 as in 9299 + 14660 = 23959. This is Icelandic for „I have thought the matter through, and that will suffice.“

This piece of „hidden poetry“ serves to identify Christianity, 23959, as the „treasure“ that was to be recovered from a usurper’s hands on Monad/God’s advice.

On Njáll’s advice, Gunnarr disguised himself and visited the usurper who, suspecting nothing, was legally required to heed a subpoena presented in the right format as Gunnarr proceeded to do: „Stefni ek handseldri sök Unnar Marðardóttur,“ 20387.

This is Icelandic for „I subpoena you on behalf of Unnr Marðardóttir.“ Again, this is a piece of „hidden poetry“, as in 1 + 4642 + 4385 + 11359 = 20387, where 1 = Monad, 4642 = Mörðr gígja (Iceland’s deceased wisest man), 4385 = Hagia Sophia (Divine Wisdom, or ‘treasure’), and 11359 = Snorri Sturluson.

¹ Alfred North Whitehead: “The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato.”

Hamlet’s Mill – An Essay on Myth and the Frame of Time

(Giorgio de 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. (Hamlet’s Mill – An Essay on Myth and the Frame of Time, 1969; Second Paperback Edition, David R. Godine, Publisher, Boston, 1983, pp. 1-2.)

Introduction

Joseph Cambell

The figure of the tyrant-monster is known to the mythologies, folk traditions, legends, and even nightmares, of the world; and his characteristics are everywhere essentially the same. He is the hoarder of the general benefit. He is the monster avid for the greedy rights of “my and mine.” The havoc wrought by him is described in mythology and fairy tales as being universal throughout his domain. This may be no more than his household, his own tortured psyche, or the lives he blights with the touch of his civilization. The inflated ego of the tyrant is a curse to himself and his world – no matter how his affairs may seem to prosper. Self-terrorized, fear-haunted, alert at every hand to meet and battle back the anticipated aggressions of his environment, which are primarily reflections of the uncontrollable impulses to acquisition within himself, the giant of self-achieved independence is the world’s messenger of disaster, even though, in his mind, he may entertain himself with humane intentions. Wherever he sets his hand there is a cry (if not from the housetops, then – more miserably – within every heart): a cry for the redeeming hero, the carrier of the shining blade, whose blow, whose touch, whose existence, will liberate the land.

Here one can neither stand nor lie nor sit

There is not even silence in the mountains

But dry sterile thunder without rain

There is not even solitude in the mountains

But red sullen faces sneer and snarl

From doors of mudcracked houses. (T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land)

The hero is the man of self-achieved submission. But submission to what? That precisely is the riddle that today we have to ask ourselves and that it is everywhere the primary virtue and historic deed of the hero to have solved. As Professor Arnold J. Toynbee indicates in his six-volume study of the laws of the rise and disintegration of civilizations, schism in the soul, schism in the body social, will not be resolved by any scheme of return to the good old days (archism), or by programs guaranteed to render an ideal projected future (futurism), or even by the most realistic, hardheaded work to weld together again the deteriorating elements. Only birth can conquer death – the birth, not of the old thing again, but of something new. Within the soul, within the body social, there must be – if we are to experience long survival – a continuous “recurrence of birth” (palingenesia) to nullify the unremitting recurrences of death. For it is by means of our own victories, if we are not regenerated, that the work of Nemesis is wrought: doom breaks from the shell of our very virtue. Peace then is a snare; war is a snare; change is a snare; permanence is a snare. When our day is come for the victory of death, death closes in; there is nothing we can do, except be crucified – and resurrected; dismembered totally, and then reborn. (The Hero With a Thousand Faces, Princeton University Press, Second Edition, 1968, pp. 15-17)
