Searching for the Garden of Eden

hey everyone in anticipation of the new spirit science human history series we wanted to share something really amazing with you our history is so curious because there are a number of tremendous head-scratching anomalies that seem to suggest that things are not as cut and dry as we've been led to believe now we're not trying to suggest that we have all the answers we really encourage healthy skepticism and exploration of these ideas as we're all striving to discover the hidden truths of our origins even the idea of Atlantis from our original history movie is only a theory and we acknowledge that there needs to be a lot more exploration in order to truly make sense of who we are and where we came from this is why today we're excited to share with you a very special episode from Gaia Zone original series ancient civilizations this episode is called searching for the Garden of Eden and is the first in a long series which explores the hidden origins of humanity and our planet and so let us journey back to the beginning to discover something amazing and stay tuned to the end and we'll show you how you can watch even more episodes entirely for free enjoy [Music] we have to know where we come from if we're gonna have a clear idea of where we're going if we have illusions and false ideas about who and what we are and how and how we got here then that illusory state is just going to continue into the future we need to understand the forces that were involved in shaping the modern world [Music] ancient Sumeria according to mainstream scholars this is the birthplace of civilization as we know it the birthplace of religion the first science the first war and the first written word now all that is left is a message buried beneath the sand it's one of Iraq's most famous archaeological sites rising from the desert near nas area in the southeast the ziggurat of or a massive 4,000 year old temple pyramid and the surrounding ruins of an ancient Sumerian city archaeologists and scholars have been piecing evidence together for centuries in this area of the world hoping to prove the biblical stories the Garden of Eden most people think well we're interested in the Middle East because of the oil and there's a lot of truth to that but at the same time you're gonna find people who are very interested in these different esoteric philosophies like the Freemasons of government the Christians and government all of these people have long had of strong interest and also believe that there may be some kind of power or some sort of connection there that if you make it it empowers you in some way what kind of power could these groups have if they could prove how humanity started the search for something more powerful than our own current reality isn't a modern concept but rather an ongoing search for the location of the Garden of Eden the proverbial beginning there's been a fixation amongst biblical scholars early archaeologists that everything in the Middle East began on the affrighted and the Tigris down in what is to die Lara Iraq and that this is where the Garden of Eden was this was where everything emerged good and bad in the sort of Genesis tradition in 1922 English archaeologist see Leonard Woolley went to southern Iraq to hopefully find the Garden of Eden based on early discoveries of Sumerian cuneiform however what he actually uncovered instead was the exact location of the ancient Sumerian city of Ur was he getting close the early archaeologists were trying to prove the Bible and they were funded by biblical societies and that's you know in other words they had to come up with the proof and it ignored a lot of legends and traditions which suggested that they cities were elsewhere could willie have ignored some important information that was revealed several years before in 1849 almost 75 years earlier thousands of sumerian cuneiform were found northwest of her at the ancient cities of sipar and napur you they'll meet in 18-49 Henry Layard performed many excavations on the sipar site and discovered about 20,000 tablets sumerian and akkadian and amongst all the tablets discovered about a dozen of them are about the Garden of Eden could this be the location of the Garden of Eden or was this just another clue leading researchers to another location subsequent cultures whether the Assyrians whether the Babylonians who rose to prominence in that area who were not Sumerians nevertheless venerated and highly valued everything that the Sumerians did that's why we can read the Sumerian language because those later cultures made a project of taking Sumerian texts and translating them into their language and those are languages that the scholars could read because they were Semitic languages they were they belong to a language family that where the code could be cracked whereas Sumerian was an isolate and without those translations done by later cultures who nevertheless had contact with Sumer we would not be able to read those Sumerian texts at all were these later cultures able to decipher the beginning of humanity Sumeru Akkadian researcher and author of eight books regarding Sumerian translation Anton Parkes believes that for hundreds of years we have been translating these tablets wrong [Music] Guerry Zeitlin who is a scientist who worked on the SETI project for many years and collaborated with NASA he was very interested in the Sumerian translations and he provided me with these 10 tablets found at sipar to check symbols one by one I noticed one translation saying one thing and the other saying sometimes the complete opposite the true translations did not comply a persistent ly did research on Hebrew but nothing was coming out of it and then completely by chance I came across a su Mero Akkadian lexicon and this is when I could finally slowly start to translate the tablets what Anton Parkes began to translate was a completely different version of the Garden of Eden than we've heard before not only had the words been mistranslated the actual location had been overlooked in biblical text we constantly read about this idea of heaven or paradise this comes from the greek pair odysseus and this literally means enclosure for wild animals not paradise a term that was later transcribed as garden during the Hellenistic era if we go back to the original translation in the Sumerian tablets it says the men who served the gods work for them in the garden and are treated like animals it is a very clear and recurrent theme they are slaves who served the divine community and Hebraic texts we understand that the humans seem happy in the so-called paradise which is in fact more like a concentration camp according to Sumerian texts in my translations we also discovered the word carsick which translated to city of the gods it's interesting that all the highest points in Turkey are named Cara dog which strangely resembles car song Cara dog translates to Black Mountain and also refers to the highest mountains in Turkey the only summit with the named Cara dog that is close to the Mesopotamian plane and tributary of the Tigris and only a few kilometers from the Euphrates stands 29 kilometres south of the city cert and 19 kilometers southwest of the city of Earth is this the paradise described in the Sumerian texts Jerry sent me images of this site from Google Earth and at the back on the mountainside there is a little plane this is where I think the Garden of Eden of the Gods was located based on my translation of the text the Garden of Eden was where the four rivers emerged from two of which are recently identified as the Euphrates and the Tigris which do indeed obviously float through modern Iran and empty out into the Arabian Sea but they rise in southeast Turkey and the other two rivers can be identified as rivers that also rise in Southeast to eastern Turkey all of these rivers are merged in the same general part of the world which we know today as either Eastern or southeastern Turkey with the decoding of the Sumerian cuneiform and the location of these four rivers could this be the actual location for the Garden of Eden the closest paved road to the proposed location is highway 50 651 as easy as it may seem to get to this location to excavate scholars and archaeologists consider this area highly politically unstable and it has remained untouched all we have at the moment is the language to decode from the Sumerian cuneiform 's the cuneiforms that describe a different kind of paradise these ten tablets according to Anton parks tell the Sumerian version of how the Garden of Eden was created prosecuted using us on TV oh damn it wait for my translations I discovered when the Sumerian gods arrived on earth they settled on this mountain in order to create a colony and be able to survive apparently they suffered damage and ended up on this mountain because of a war and they found shelter many experts believe that they came from the Pleiades star cluster [Music] my opinion is that they came from there maybe the war broke out around there but I really believe that this is where the noonas were created during this conflict on one side you have a matriarchal regime and on the other side a patriarchal one with all these new gods there are conflicts in space those new landscapes like it says on the genealogy of the land tablet these gods are going to change the way life gets implanted on earth the gods are going to create new conditions for life to bloom for their colony to thrive but who are these gods that hope to make earth their home the epic of Atrahasis in others they talk about that the earth was actually administered by a conference of gods or a group of gods in an assembly it wasn't just one God yeah they would have like their equivalent of the prime minister or the CEO who would be in charge of this group and lyl Enki there were the primary members of this Congress there well Enki and Enlil in the sumerian system are are an interesting pair and lyl is this rather sort of overarching domineering angry dangerous entity and he doesn't really care about humanity humanity are not very important to him but then we have an key the trickster and he and the other god of wisdom actually and he does care about humanity and he he intervenes on on the human level they are called gods but they were humanoid beings of a rather reptilian type the text of Eden that I translated depict clearly and quite frequently the reptilian features of the gods I personally estimate that the gods arrived approximately three hundred thousand years ago and this derives from the fact that Homo sapiens arrived shortly after I say this because throughout the texts genetics and the transformation of the human being are recurrent themes the two particles that compose the word Eden are II which means home and din or tin which is life but indeed they are not alone humans are already on earth who are these human beings if the Sumerian gods realised that they were not alone what might have been their interaction with these kinds of humans what can be noted in the Sumerian tablets when they clearly speak of creating workers to serve the noonas the main geneticists is always in key he works with the genome that is on the planet to create a new kind of human he is usually helped by priestesses that we often call the ninties who are the priestesses of life they know how to clone with him he can change the human genomes according to what end Leo asks of him which would be left brained well disciplined humans when we look at the sumerian tradition it is a group of beings rather than one being that creates humankind so it is not a single creator but a group of intelligent technologically advanced beings and where the Sumerian creation varies from the christian traditions for example and then some of the native traditions is in the sumerian traditions humankind began with the sacrifice of the life of an advanced being of a God from Sumeria so that that God's DNA or the blood is what the texts say could be mixed with the elements of the earth to create the first viable human these are the people who have the knowledge to clone they can clone themselves and then humans in the text it says they take the genes from their opponents who they consider inferior who they named as Kingu they use their blood and they will go on to create the new human who is going to serve them with these genes researchers like gregg braden stumbled across some research that has connected the Sumerian translations to an actual genetic change in our chromosomes shedding new light on these creation stories is with the mystery of human chromosome number two human chromosome number two is the large second largest chromosome in the human body it forms about 8% of DNA in every cell and what makes it such a mystery is the it appears to be the result of an ancient fusion of pre-existing chromosomes from primates that have been fused in a very precise way and the fusion site has been modified and stabilized so that human chromosome number two is as optimized for us today this has happened in a way that cannot be explained by evolution as we know it today and a why is this important human chromosome number two contains the genes that largely set us apart from all other forms of life the cortex of the human brain that gives us the ability for things like logic empathy sympathy compassion the ability to consciously trigger conscious states of self-healing within our bodies these are possible because of what has happened with human chromosome number two could chromosome number two be the work of a master geneticist otherwise known as Enki from the Sumerian text demo autumn amoeba ecologist emotionally Goudy mom it is said that inky secretly modifies the human genes by group or by location and abuse some humans with a knowledge that is different to the point where the other gods turn against him his experiment will change the human genes to enlighten mankind and throughout this cloning process that the newness and elil are overlooking I think that some humans filter through all of this and start becoming independent Anton Parkes points out that this is something that the gods did not expect from these new humans that keeps appearing in the ancient texts and that is the human ability to be more than just slaves this forms a division of the gods a division that causes a war a war that has set the tone for Humanity today there are certain very interesting parallels with the story of the Sumerian origin of modern humanity and what we see in modern dialogues about AI humans fancy that there's something special about the way we perceive the world and yet we live in loops as tight and as closed as the hosts too seldom questioning our choices content for the most part to be told what to do next we now have the rebooted West world in which something that originated as the idea of a robotic consciousness turns into essentially a flesh-and-blood creation which is then infused with a consciousness thus asking the question if they can reproduce if they are self-aware is this not the next level of humanity damn Adama it was an interesting and very important name in the biblical text and the Sumerian text is the word Adam from the Garden of Eden extensive tests have been conducted to see where this word came from consistently looking for Hebrew roots but it is a Sumerian word which means animals again we understand that human beings were considered to be animals by the Sumerian gods and this is where lies the conflict between two gods Enki and Enlil ninkey wants to treat them like the other gods [Music] these two sumerian gods have a conflict over the use of humans and it is to be the root of the biblical story of the serpent in the garden as the story unravels the riddle starts with the origin of the word Satan or Satan in English Tom and Sumerian means the administrator for years everybody has been looking to find where this word came from books revolve around this issue there is a Sumerian term I don't understand how nobody saw it is very clear we find it in ancient lexicons in lille is often referred to as the Great Sea Tom the master administrator the 150 only Sumerian text and Lille systematically asked inky to go negotiate and talk with humans he is always the one to deal with them remember he is a humanoid with reptilian features an in Sumerian tablets he has always or very often called the serpent just like in the Bible he is the only one that the humans are going to see and when they see him they see a serpent like humanoid I reckon this is why he is called the serpent in the garden he is a friend of the humans [Music] in the biblical text the serpent tempts Eve with an apple from the forbidden tree of knowledge Yahweh or God from the Bible forbids the humans in the garden to partake from this tree according to parks the Sumerian version of this story translates Yahweh or the biblical God into the Great Satan which according to Sumerian text is Enlil and the serpent in the garden as Enki who has become a friend of the humans I'll say dr. Saunders the blue that I kiss you it is interesting to wonder why the Serpent and Sumerian texts just like in the Bible comes to the woman I think there are two reasons the first one is that I think the woman was more accessible and available when she was in the garden therefore he was more often around women who were collecting food for the colony the second reason is that I think women are the future of mankind they raised their children they transmitted their knowledge to their children Enki is going to tell the women the secret of tool-making this is expressed as niche and Sumerian which means tree this means for the first time mankind could have two sides of the tool the side is fundamentally good so that they can take care of themselves and the tool that is fundamentally bad which they could use to defend themselves one could wonder why Enki insist on getting this particular secret through to the humans well he has the desire to set them free if indeed the knowledge that Enki portrays to the humans is a tool is this an actual ancient weapon that some believe certain organizations are looking for or is this Anke teaching the humans about the infinite abilities they possess through their DNA episode oh there's a spectacular scene where humans take up arms and go up the mountain of the gods to revolt and even maybe try to kill all the gods what happens is an abomination they put back on track the few survivors indeed from what we can grasp from his personality he was all about peace and wouldn't use tools in order to kill as he was perfectly aware of what would happen so this scene of humans rebelling against the gods is quite special and it cannot be found anywhere in the Bible each time I see the first movie of the Planet of the Apes it makes me think of this story let's put this back into context replace the Apes with reptilian gods and you have the exact same story it is the exact same story it stayed somewhere in our brain and this is why we can find similar elements in movies we can find similarities as well in human behavior could this situation be the biblical fall of man some scholars like Graham Hancock believed that free will to decide was the real purpose of eggies intervention we are here at this plane at this level of existence to learn the lessons of duality to make choices between good and evil and it's very clear in the ancient Egyptian system that those choices were important and that they would define us ultimately and set out the route map for our immortal destiny in a way I would say that in Enki and Enlil we are looking at a dualistic pair and and and what's interesting about that Judaism is its intense focus on on the future of humanity and what on what happens to to us that matters to Enki it doesn't matter to Allah a Sumerian problem is that we don't know where the Sumerians came from or or who they were their their language I mean we have endless Sumerian artifacts and endless Sumerian tablets but their their language is actually actually not related structurally to any other known language family was completely isolated and and unique but could the Sumerian problem have been a way for Yahweh to install his own rules so the humans would not revolt again is this why we don't find any of these translations anywhere else and why we have the establishment and religious beliefs surrounding our existence today is the particular Kazakh the way to you the book of Genesis was really written between 200 and 300 BC it is important to know that the Bible where we find the most complete book of Genesis is dated from 400 AC which brings us to this idea then when scholars are compiling the book of Genesis they must have made a choice a deliberate choice to keep or take out some elements in order to make the Bible as we know it today is it possible that modern day religion and government structure have been missed translating our human past to keep us under the control of Enlil or Yahweh experts like Billy Carson still believe that the knowledge from these gods were able to further our human imprint on this planet when you look into the ancient Sumerian tablets they talk about these gods that came here to earth and basically rose them to a high level of civilization and taught them everything that they know now these gods didn't do the labor themselves but they imparted this wisdom and information onto the humans that actually did the labor could these gods have created us in their likeness was the Garden of Eden the beginning for not only the gods rain on but also humans and could the constant search for the Garden of Eden be a programmed loop we hope to understand the symbolism is very important in our sense of ourselves collectively and personally there is something lost we don't know quite what it is but the story suggests it's the lost connection with the transcendence and so we wish we could go back not only to the Garden of Eden but in other ways go back to some earlier time nothing is more significant in the received wisdom than the story of the Garden of Eden Graham Hancock believes that not all is lost when you look to other ancient texts that tell a similar story what's dynamite in the in in the Gnostic system is that the Gnostics believed that we have been hoodwinked but that entity that we have been taught to call God and worship is no such thing up next we unearth the NAG Hammadi and the Gnostic version of the Garden of Eden [Music] we'd like to express the deepest gratitude for all of you taking the time to watch this and of course
