Christ Conspiracy_ The Greatest Story Ever Sold - Acharya S [120]
The Five Loaves, Two Fishes and 12 Baskets
In gospel tale, Jesus feeds the 5,000 with five loaves and two fishes. The two fishes are in reality the zodiacal sign of Pisces. The five loaves have been said to represent the five smaller planets. These, of course, would be the same five loaves requested of the priests by David at 1 Samuel 21:3. Later in the gospel myth, the number of the loaves is seven, representing the seven "planets" used to name the days of the week. "Jesus," the sun, "breaks up" the multiplied loaves into the 12 "baskets" or constellations, symbolizing the creation of the countless stars and the placement of them in the heavens.
Furthermore, as the sun was considered the "fisher," so was the Greek version of the Great Mother, Demeter, called "Mistress of Earth and Sea, multiplier of loaves and fishes."54 Indeed, the loaves and fishes are pre-Christian communion foods eaten at sacred feasts, often following the resurrection of their god, as an initiation into an ancient mystical rite.
The Devils and the Swine
The story of Jesus exorcising devils out of the demoniac is also Egyptian in origin. As Massey states:
The devils entreat Jesus not to bid them depart into the abyss, but as a herd of swine were feeding on the mountain they ask permission to enter into these. "Arid he gave them leave." Then the devils came out of the man and entered the swine, which ran down into the lake-exactly as it is in the Egyptian scenes of the judgment, where condemned souls are ordered back into the abyss, and they make the return passage down to the lake of primordial matter by taking the shape of the swine.55
Bringing Sword instead of Peace, Prince of Peace
The statement that Jesus, the "Prince of Peace," comes with a sword (Mt. 10:34) has always been a point of contradiction that has disturbed ethicists for centuries. Indeed, the sword bit has led to an atrocious amount of human suffering, as wild-eyed Christian fanatics descended upon the world, slaughtering millions under the banner of the "Prince of Peace."
This contradiction also can only be explained within the mythos. When the sun is being swallowed by the darkness, he must fight with the sword until he arrives the next day to bring peace.
The Transfiguration on the Mount
In the gospel story, Jesus is "transfigured" on a mountain in front of his disciples, Peter, James and John. The transfiguration is also a part of the mythos, as several other savior-gods were likewise transfigured on mountaintops. Massey explains the mythical meaning of the transfiguration:
The scene on the Mount of Transfiguration is obviously derived from the ascent of Osiris into the mount of the moon. The sixth day was celebrated as that of the change and transformation of the solar god into the lunar orb, when he re-entered on that day as the regenerator of its light. With this we may compare the statement made by Matthew, that "after six days Jesus" went "up into a high mountain apart; and he was transfigured," "and his face did shine as the sun, and his garments became white as the light."56
The Ass
The riding of the ass into "Jerusalem," "City of Peace," or the "Holy City," occurs in Egyptian mythology, at least two thousand years prior to the Christian era. The ass is the totem animal of Set, who rides it into the city in triumph. Massey reiterates the astrological meaning of this episode:
Neither god nor man can actually ride on the ass and her foal at the same time. Such a proceeding must be figurative; one that could not be humanly fulfilled in fact. We have seen how it was fulfilled in the mythos and rendered in the planisphere. The ass and its colt are
