Ditto. IMHO ultimately changing Filipinas name to (sanskrit) "Maharlika" isn't going to solve anything - the next time we'll just be going on, claiming "Indian" instead of "spanish" or "american".

Just gotta learn to put the FIGHT back into the FILIPINO

Maharloka is supposed to be the Olden name for the Isles we now know as the Philippines. And this is not conspiracy stuff, but mystical revelations well known among various mystical circles, masonic lodges in the country.

Maharloka(Philippine isles) was one of the 7 Subcontinents of Mu, or Motherland. The 7 Blessed isles of Mu is alluded in the myth of the Seven Golden Cities of Cibola and with the legend of the Eldorado. And these are the same as the Seven Islands of the Blest, which are no other than the sunken Eden of the Judeo-Christians. The name of the Golden Cities of Cibola very obviously came from the Dravida civ-pola, meaning "golden city" or, yet, "city of the reds". It is interesting to note that "Reds" or "Golden" are usual epithets of the Atlanteans. Adam too was a "Red", that is, a Chamite, as his name (means "red") unequivocally indicates.

In fact, the number 7 alludes to the seven great islands of Indonesia: Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Celebes, Philippines, New Guinea and the Malay Peninsula, which the ancients counted as an island.

The symbol of MU is the eight rays radiating from a circle. It may also be seen as a blooming flower. At a distance this blooming flower or lotus can be mistaken as a wheel.
It's no coincidence that in our national flag, we have the eight rayed sun.

Karma-yoga is the perfected yoga in Maharloka. It is understandable that Filipinos are at home with rituals and ceremonies. This collective consciousness explains why Filipinos have so many deities to appease.

In a way, Maharloka is a land of devotees. The generating center is from the chest to the neck. This also explains why Maharloka is a land of warriors. And when there is Warriorship it goes hand in hand with Kingship. And Maharloka is time immemorial as the most powerful among the 7 subcontinents.

And the mystics all concur, that Maharloka will soon as before the next powerhouse(New Jerusalem) in the coming Golden Age.

Mabuhay mga Maharlikans!

Mr Hermes Tr. I think we are actually of the same opinion regarding the future of Filipinas -- you have written a lot to bring more light into the ancient past and even more about shaping the thought and spiritual powers of the present and future generations of Filipinos. Since I have dabbled a little myself in Rudolf Steiner and Gurdjeff, I agree that certain symbols and visions presage the fate of man.

Nevertheless, I'm against changing the name of Filipinas
at the present time: Only when our strength has revealed ourselves should we think of undoing this colonial name: otherwise our bad habits of our mentality will continue regardless of a new name.

Since you will have noticed that I have a sorta "Chinoy" name, you will probably be little surprised that I enjoy asking the I Ching:

Asked about Filipinas/Maharlokas future, it gave Hexagramm 7

Thanks for the insights. Changes have to take place in all sectors of our society, the Filipino elites must remove their apathy towards their suffering brethren, and the masses to remove hopelessness and begin to stand up. And only then the treasures of the land, will appear.

Gullible enough to believe that sanskrit humor! ha ha!

Sanskrit for penis is linggum. Very far from lika or likha.

Anyways Mahar or Maha means Great, likha from the sanskrit
lekha means Creation or Effort. Put together it means Noble Creation. Which our own ancestors of the warrior-kingly caste wanted to call themselves of having Noble blood or royal blood. May dugong Maharlika ika nga.

Maharloka means Great Land, the original name of the Philippine isles.

BTW, Sanskrit and Dravidans were the original languages of our ancestors prior or post the great Flood or Inundation of the now sunken continent of Sunda(Mu or the legendary Lemuria) with its elevated mountain tops are know the remaining seven blessed isles of IndoNesia: Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Celebes, Philippines, New Guinea and the Malay Peninsula.

The Great Flood happened 10,000 years ago ending the last ice age, with the antecendant volcanic eruptions. Commemorated in lots of sacred scriptures in various cultures and in the bible as Noah's flood.

Have you ever seen the parallels of the Jagganatha Festival of India and the Black Nazarene, Trismegistos? There are similarities, and Jagganatha is even a pre-dravidian God. Maybe some authentic vestige of Lemurian civilization, having to diguise itself in Hindu/Catholic vestments...

Wow! Nice observation.

I have no doubt.

There are lots of parallelisms in all religions. As if coming from one source.

You can read more from here... http://atlan.org/articles/sacraments/

The first books in the bible, as the researchers say, esp. Genesis is an abridged form of the Sumerian creation myths. And the Sumerian's was derived from the Hindu. While the Hindus in the Indian Subcontinent claims and was stated in their Rigvedas that their Highest caste their Brahmin priests came from the Southern seas, during the Great cataclysm.

And linggam(Penis) or the PHALLUS btw is worshipped by the Hindu as a representative of the Divine. So there is no shame either. Too much victorianism has muddled up our minds.

To quote my favorite mystic:

Brahma & Shakti

He who knows other systems of initiation will find a certain parallel with my system since all paths leading to truth must be the same. Let me mention here the Indian Yoga system concerning the snake power that is in accordance with the systems of the Egyptian mysteries I have quoted. In Kundalini yoga the scholar is exhorted to meditate on the Muladhara center, the seat of which is the coccyx, and to perform Pranayama exercises there. If we look closely at the symbolism of the Muladharaa chakra we shall find tht this center has the shape of a yellow square with a red triangle in it. The center of it is a phallus wrapped three and a half times with a snake. The muladhara chakra is the first, most primitive and gross center that is symbolized by an elephant placed in a corner together with the respective goddess.

This symbolic expression, called Laya-yoga in India, is unequivocal and means the key for the first stage of yoga. There are several explanations of this sign, but the correct one is that the square represents the earth, the triangle the three kingdoms of the material, astral and mental world, the phallus the generative power or the imagination, and the serpent the path and the knowledge. The fact is well known to the scholar that the earth principle is composed of four elements, and it does not need any comment. The growing yogi first has to learn to know and control the three worlds.

Consequently, the muladhara chakra is nothing else but an initiating diagram corresponding to the first Tarot card. Such an unsophisticated definition like this has never been given in India, and it is left to the scholar to find out by himself if he can master the muladhara center, if he has accomplished the development corresponding to the muladhara diagram on his spiritual path. The muladhara chakra also has been called the Brakma center because in this phase of development the yogi scholar recognizes Brahma as the Godhead in the most subtle manifestation. Brahma is the eternal, the inscrutable, the universal, the indefinable, the steady and the calm, and therefore the positive part. Brahma does not create out of himself, but all that has been created has been done so by his Shakti, the female principle. Shakti in the muladhara chakra represents the serpent winding round the phallus and using the imagination, its creative power. A lot more could be said about this center, but the experienced magician will be satisfied with these hints to understand that a parallel exists between religious and initiating systems. Consequently the Shakti or Kundalini power represents the imagination that the mystic has to develop systematically. Casting a retrospective glance at our entire developmental system, the magician will certainly find that it is just this creative power of the phallus, namely the imagination and it development that are playing the main role in his training.

I have already finished the mystic physical training in Step IX; therefore, I will restrict myself to discussing some occult powers in the following chapter. Although the mystic will not necessarily have to master all of them, nothing must come as a surprise to him in his development, and he ought to have the correct explanation for every occult phenomenon.

We have bought scraps from other countries like recycling iron metals from china then buying scrapped buses and remaking telenovelas from other countries,i hope that filipinos who want to prove themselves and make a difference be more visible so that we can prove ourselves too.
martin_nuke
That is pinoy ingenuity and resourcefulness. In other countries if their vehicle or electronic appliance gets broken they will just throw it away but here in the Philippines they will fix it and make it work again.

This is pure Pinoy Ingenuity
