In this episode, we discuss Exoteric Worldism and the Aurea Linda Book, a book that was discovered by Herman Wirth in the late 19th century and published in 1922. This book is considered to be one of the most important documents in the history of Exoteric Worldsism, and has since been the subject of many attempts to discredit it.
00:11:21.140So, I mean, I think the biggest thing is maybe we want to address this immediately.
00:11:26.440It seems like kind of from the original translation into English, and especially now there's a lot of people who don't think that this book is real.
00:12:07.460Because, obviously, the servicing of such a mysterious book in the 19th century raises some questions.
00:12:14.920And mainly it's due to the paper, which people without the trained eye think is modern paper, but it's not.
00:12:24.180So, one of the biggest criticisms is that it is machinely made, although this book is written on medieval Arabic paper.
00:12:35.760And it's also specifically said in the book itself that it had to be used, that foreign paper had to be used to write because it's more sturdy and of higher quality.
00:12:47.940And the similarities between medieval Arabic paper and modern, modernly used paper is that it has sort of a horizontal lining over the paper structure, the texture of it.
00:13:07.340Although, when a piece of the paper was ripped, it shredded, you could see that there was aging on the paper.
00:13:19.740And so, the paper itself is really yellow-brownish, like properly aged.
00:13:27.920But when something broke off, you see that it's not aged in the middle.
00:13:32.220And people who don't understand how paint and paper works, they think that's proof that the aging was falsely painted on the script to feign age.
00:13:46.140But it's actually proved that it's actually aged because paint goes through the paper wholly, so it would also be appearing aged in the middle.
00:13:55.920But because it's aged properly, it's still white in the center of the paper.
00:14:05.200Now, what would be, in your opinion, what would be the reason for this text-only surfacing in the 19th century, in kind of the age of Romanticism?
00:14:19.500I mean, it seems a very appropriate time for it to surface.
00:14:23.000Yes, that's also an argument used against it.
00:14:31.140But it's hard to make such judgments because it also contributed a lot to the Romanticist movement that sprung up.
00:14:41.080For instance, the Focus movement was really, had a really big interest in the Orel in the book.
00:14:51.920So you don't, it's really hard to make judgment on the basis that the Romanticism was blooming in that age because it's, it has, it's connected to each other.
00:15:03.920I think it's kind of like it amplified it, you know.
00:15:11.120I'm just kind of trying to establish the case here.
00:15:13.800So do you have any other kind of assertions or defenses you'd like to make towards the legitimacy and veracity of the book?
00:15:25.540Yes, I want to do, I want to say another thing about the paper because modern paper is prepared with chlorine and when the paper was examined by early researchers, it proved that there was no chlorine used in the paper.
00:15:48.300So that kind of proves that it wasn't modern paper that was used.
00:16:27.580But having, I think, established the origins of the book and given it some coverage of its legitimacy, you know, so what's the book all about?
00:17:45.880It consists of letters written from one, for instance, law to another or just a small history of a Christian that went to a certain place and accomplished things there.
00:17:57.440So it's almost like the Bible in the respect that it's not one coherent, like, tale.
00:18:02.940Well, it actually consists of metaphors.
00:22:49.420Then the earth overflowed with blood, and your children were mown down like grass.
00:22:54.080Yes, Finda, those were the fruits of your vanity.
00:22:57.980Look down from your watch star and weep.
00:23:01.220Freya was white, like snow at sunrise, and the blue of her eyes fight with the rainbow.
00:23:07.100Beautiful Freya, like the rays of the sun shone the locks of her hair, which were as fine as spiders' webs.
00:23:14.100Clever Freya, when she opened her lips, the birds ceased to sing and the leaves to quiver.
00:23:18.800Powerful Freya, at the glance of her eye, the lion lay down at her feet, and the adder withheld his poison.
00:23:26.580Pure Freya, her food was honey, and her beverage was dew gathered from the cups of flowers.
00:23:33.200Sensible Freya, the first lesson that she taught her children was self-control, and the second was the love of virtue.
00:23:39.840And when they were grown, she taught them the value of liberty, for she said,
00:23:44.500Without liberty, all other virtues serve to make you slaves, and to disgrace your origin.
00:23:51.020Generous Freya, she never allowed metal to be dug from the earth for her own benefit, but when she did it, it was for general use.
00:23:59.620Most happy Freya, like the starry host in the firmament, her children clustered around her.
00:24:05.120Wise Freya, and when she had seen her children reach the seventh generation, she summoned them all to Fleeland, and there gave them her text, saying,
00:24:16.180Let this be your guide, and it can never go ill with you.
00:24:20.280Exalted Freya, when she had thus spoken, the earth shook like the sea of Rala.
00:24:25.640The ground of Fleeland sank beneath her feet, the air dimmed by tears, and when they looked for their mother, she was already risen to her watching star.
00:24:34.080Then at length thunder burst from the clouds, and the lightning wrote upon the firmament,
00:25:30.220Yeah, I'll just make a few comments and then give it back to you.
00:25:32.920I mean, obviously, prima facie, there's quite a few similarities between this account and what we see in Genesis.
00:25:40.700This is three root races that spawn with the same characteristics, essentially, as we speak of, that the Logos himself breathes life into the form of men.
00:25:53.420But it's interesting, I would note, that the origin story here involves not one man and one woman, but rather three women.
00:26:02.700So, that, and it's interesting that there's not a, they don't copulate with men, but rather they seem to give birth in an autogenerate fashion.
00:26:15.340Yes, by, I guess, immaculate conception.
00:26:19.080Well, not, I know that the term is not the one you're looking for, but I know what you're saying.
00:26:35.600I mean, so there's the, this is the story of the creation of the world by the Logos, who breathes the breath of life into the matriarchs of mankind.
00:26:45.920I wouldn't call it matriarchs more than foundrists.
00:26:50.400Well, matriarchs, I mean, foundrists is fine.
00:26:51.640Matriarch does not necessarily have a governing implication.
00:26:54.900It just means that they are the progenitors.
00:26:59.600Maybe it's good to hold a little bit of a, I suppose, manifest around how Vuralda is the Logos and how this is also described in the Uralenda book.
00:30:05.220I mean, for those of us, we use the term Logos quite a bit in the show.
00:30:09.720I mean, this is basically what religion and politics are about, is it's about Logos.
00:30:17.740To give our viewers, or our listeners, rather, a little bit of a short definition, Logos is a Greek term which means word or utterance.
00:30:26.480More specifically, it means that which has been made manifest.
00:30:30.420That which we can apprehend with our rational mind and to not necessarily fully grasp, but is intelligible.
00:30:37.840And so, in a sense, like a word is the intelligible symbol of an idea that we utter forth, and it has autonomous existence in the physical world, not just in the spiritual realm of our mind.
00:30:51.740So, when we speak of the Logos, we're speaking of this utterance, the intelligible structure of the universe in which we live.
00:30:59.380The discernible form of the deity, capital D, who brought everything into being out of his own power and sustains it all by the immutable and eternal laws.
00:31:10.920So, this will not be anything new for studious listeners of this program, but I thought it would be important to give the background.
00:31:18.840So, Christians, we believe, naturally, that the Logos, the word, was made incarnate in the person of Jesus Christ.
00:31:25.600But the attributes that we ascribe to the Logos, we say the Logos is wisdom, which is what the Ural in the book is quite clearly saying.
01:14:42.200Gestorben, gestorben, gestorben muss sein.
01:14:46.860Flandern in Not, in Flandern reitet der Tod, in Flandern reitet der Tod.
01:14:59.280Flandern in Not, in Flandern reitet der Tod.
01:15:29.280And in the future, Denmark might get the dignity, the length of time that its dignified status deserves in order to give our listeners a comprehensive coverage of the subjects that are relevant to us.
01:15:42.740So moving back into our main topic for today, the Uralinde book, Frisia.
01:15:50.880Before we hit the break, we were going to discuss the role of women in ancient Frisian society.
01:15:56.800So, Carol and Belegger, do you have your material prepared for that now?
01:16:02.420That's right. We had a little bit of a stumble there.
01:16:26.420Okay, so the Uralinde book explicitly mentions that every young man has to seek a bride and to be married at 25.
01:16:37.120And if a young man is not married at 25, and he must be driven from his home, his own home, and the younger man must avoid him.
01:16:50.200If they will not marry, then still, he must be declared dead and leave the country, so that he may not give offense.
01:16:58.400And here you have another lacking in the English translation with give offense, because in the Frisian and in the Dutch translation, you have the word ergenis.
01:17:15.140And some of you may know what the word erger means in the Germanic society.
01:17:27.460It's basically, it means unmanly, and it's an accusation of sodomy.
01:17:32.140So here it's specifically mentioned that he must be declared dead if he is still not married at 25, because he might be a sodomite.
01:17:47.180And it also states to keep him away from young men, and the word here is used in the Dutch translation, which is like boys.
01:17:57.000So it also exposes the pedophilic nature of the sodomite.
01:18:00.160The pedophilic problem that inevitably rises from the sodomite question.
01:18:06.340One of the interesting things, if you look at like the Deuteronomic law codes of Moses, is he has a huge emphasis on different, you know, differentiating men and women.
01:18:16.680That it was highly illegal for women to dress in men's clothing and vice versa.
01:18:21.440This is the necessity of the beard, right?
01:18:23.120I mean, you can never, you know, in some senses, the beard is more important in many traditional cultures than the testicles as a determination of manhood.
01:18:33.040Because number one, you can't grow a beard without testicles.
01:18:35.040But number two, I mean, you don't walk around with your testicles out all the time to show people that you're a man.
01:18:48.900No, but I think it's an important kind of a caveat to make that the beard traditionally, I mean, even if we look at Athenian culture, and I'm not certain what Frisian culture says on this or what this says.
01:18:57.840But Athenian culture, you weren't a man until you could grow a beard.
01:19:25.780So, the name Athens is a reminder that they were allied and invited to settle there as an allowance of friendship with the local people there.
01:20:17.160I mean, Athens is a classical example of a seafaring people, as far as that civilizational type goes, which definitely fits into the narrative you're weaving here.
01:20:27.500And also with the outlook on freedom and the sort of democratic outlook.
01:21:47.960Yeah, well, certainly, any educated person would speak both Greek and Latin, and you would speak different languages depending on the subject you were discussing.
01:21:55.300So matters of religion, in some cases, theology, philosophy, these were all discussed in the Greek language, or matters of law, business, regulation, these were discussed in Latin.
01:22:06.240Exactly, and another thing that's interesting to note here is that Caesar was well familiar with Greek, but he said it was similar to the Greek writing, which implies that it's not Greek at all.
01:22:20.300As some people might say, like, oh, he says it's similar to Greek, it might as well be Greek.
01:22:26.160And when you look to the Greek letters in the Uralinde book, it's also stated that this is a kind of an appropriation and a bastardization of the original script, again, based around the six-spoke wheel.
01:22:39.360So, the language of the Frizzian people is runic, it's iconographic.
01:22:50.180Sort of, yeah, well, runic in the sense, just as our modern script might be runic-based, if you get what I'm saying.
01:23:01.040It's not runic in the sense that you think of the Futharks.
01:23:04.440Right, yeah, well, that's kind of a separate topic.
01:23:07.100Yeah, so was there anything else you wanted to cover in terms of women?
01:23:20.560One thing to know, you're lagging a lot for us, you sound like a robot, maybe to fix that might be a good idea, because you're hardly intelligible.
01:24:01.080Wherefore, they must all have equal rights on sea and land, and on all that Roda has given.
01:24:06.680Every man may seek the wife of his choice, and every woman may bestow her hand on him whom she loves.
01:24:13.340When a man takes a wife, a house and yard must be given to him.
01:24:16.920If there is none, one must be built for him.
01:24:20.700If he has taken a wife in another village, and wishes to remain, they must give him a house there, and likewise the free use of the common.
01:24:29.700To every man must be given a piece of land behind his home.
01:24:33.300No man shall have land in front of his house, still less an enclosure, unless he has performed some public service.
01:24:40.080In such a case it may be given, and the youngest son may inherit it.
01:24:43.760But after him it returns to the community.
01:24:46.920Every village shall possess a common for the general good, and the chief of the village shall take care that it is kept in good order, so that posterity shall find it uninjured.
01:25:01.820Every village shall have a marketplace.
01:25:05.180All the rest of the land shall be for tillage and forest.
01:25:08.400No one shall fell trees without the consent of the community, or without the knowledge of the forester.
01:25:14.240For the forests are general property, and no man can appropriate them.
01:25:19.940The market charges shall not exceed one twelfth of the value of the goods, either to natives or to strangers.
01:25:27.160The portion taken from the charges shall not be sold before the other goods.
01:25:32.380All the market receipts must be divided yearly into hundred parts three days before yule day.
01:25:38.040The grevet man is basically the count, and this council shall take 20 parts, the keeper of the market 10, and his assistants 5, the volksmother 1, the midwife 4, the village 10, and the poor and infirm shall have 50 parts.
01:25:59.440So this is basically a tax, a market tax, and that's used for welfare and the payment of salary of functionaries.
01:26:08.500Yes, it was broadly kind of a socialist, non-Marxian system.
01:26:14.000Yes, it's basically socialized, well, it's social in the sense that those that cannot work get allowances.
01:26:27.380And that's also based on how well, how prosperous the community is.
01:26:31.960So if it's poor, there's less loans, and if it's rich in trade, there's more for the poor.
01:27:16.800If any should come, it would be the duty of the maidens to make it known through the whole land,
01:27:22.280in order that such people may not be chosen for any office, because they are hard-hearted.
01:27:27.600For the sake of money, they would betray everybody, people, the mother, their nearest relations, and even their own selves.
01:27:34.240If any man should attempt to sell diseased cattle, or there is goods for sound, the market keeper shall expel him, and the maidens shall proclaim him through the country.
01:27:58.240I mean, this is one of the things that I...
01:27:59.920You know, you're an engine when you speak about economics, but some of these people...
01:28:04.080It's like they don't even really see the issue with usury.
01:28:06.940There are so many people that are just so stuck in this post-modernist, modernist, capitalist mindset, that the idea that we print money, or we exchange loans at compound interest, at usury,
01:28:25.360where there's the accumulation of value that doesn't exist, like it's made up, that doesn't bother them.
01:28:31.880I mean, it's just, it's incredible, like it's basic, just such basic, bitch, natural law.
01:28:37.000It's like if you leave gold on a table, and come back a year later, does more gold appear?
01:28:49.380So why is it that with our currencies, we have compound interest?
01:28:55.120Or not even compound, but interest at large.
01:28:57.560It's not a consummate to the amount of money that's being printed, or the amount of real liquid capital adjusted for market availability.
01:29:07.400It's just, as you say, it's made up, barren metal.
01:29:10.360Sorry for the little tangent, but I thought it was important to discuss.
01:29:13.380I mean, hopefully E. Michael Jones will be on the show soon, and we can discuss the issue of usury more in depth.
01:29:20.740Sorry for distracting from you, gentlemen.
01:29:23.320But, so, we were speaking on, this is part of the laws in terms of governing the commons.
01:29:30.020Did you, anything else you wanted to say on marriage?
01:29:32.880Aside from the fact that there was a general understanding that free men and women could choose their husbands and wives?
01:29:39.800Yeah, and of course, the free men and women could also just point to Frisian again,
01:29:45.300which just means free people, as in this excludes the other races.
01:29:52.860And another, in the last, that is interesting.
01:29:57.200These are the rules concerning bastards, which in the Dutch translation is called whore sons, sons of whores.
01:30:06.3401. If any man sets fire to another's house, he is no Frisian, he is a bastard.
01:30:14.040If he is caught in the act, he must be thrown into the fire, and wherever he may flee, he shall never be secure from the avenging justice.
01:30:23.8202. No true Frisian shall speak ill of the faults of his neighbors.
01:30:28.3603. If any man injures himself, but does no harm to others, he must be his own judge.
01:30:34.7004. But if he becomes so bad that he is dangerous to others, they must bring it before the court, before the count.
01:30:42.1805. But if instead of going to the count, a man accuses another behind his back,
01:30:49.260he must be put on the marketplace and then sent out of the country, but not to the tin mines,
01:30:55.9006. Because even there a backbiter is to be feared.
01:31:00.7603. If any man should prove a traitor and show to our enemies the paths leading to our places of refuge or creep into them by night,
01:31:10.400he must be the offspring of Finda, he must be burnt.
01:31:13.760The sailors must take his mother and all his relations to a desolate island and there scatter his ashes in order that no poisonous herbs may spring from them.
01:31:23.3004. The maidens must curse his name in all the states in order that no child may be called by his name and that his ancestors may repudiate him.
01:31:33.1605. War. Oh, wait. That's basically those laws.
01:31:39.1606. Very interesting. I mean, please go on.
01:31:42.4407. So it's interesting that these are called sons of whores.
01:31:46.700These are basically just acts that are totally unsocial, asocial.
01:31:55.940And, well, that is then if you commit such an act, you're considered the son of a whore or a bastard, not even one of the Frisian race.
01:32:04.040Well, that's exactly it. And, I mean, this is the thing to understand is that in any societies that have a firm conception of law,
01:32:12.540I mean, their idea of law was so different from our own, whether it's Frisio or ancient Israel.
01:32:18.600We're dealing with people who believe that law was the manifestation of the Logos, that law already existed.
01:32:25.400It was in the universe, which we are a part of.
