The Mayas (Part 4)
For Luvis, who believed in reincarnation, the most advanced profession was construction work. The oldest wall-building technique known belonged to them. They were very famous for their bricks floating on water. They were the first to use the stone roof technique in the region, which later evolved into archways. They were also the first to build surrounding walls around the settled areas.
They were again the first to build holy houses that belonged to the Mother God. In the ancient Egyptian language, “Bethes” meant a house. The city of Thebes, in which there was a great big temple devoted to God Amon. The word “The” is generally used as God in Egyptian. Bes is short for Bethes and their usage together meant the “House of the God”. The same word, which originated in the Mu language, was used as Tao in Chinese and as Teo in ancient Turkish civilizations. Teo-Man means God-Man, which means the “Kamil Man” in Turkish. The same word has also been used in Hebrew and Greek as “Tau” and is the last letter of the Hebrew and the Greek alphabet. The symbol of this letter that indicates eternity, which will later be used by the Christians, is the renowned cross. The word theology, which means the science of god, has also originated from the same root.
In Luvis, Beth is also used for the meaning of a house. Ma Beth is the House of the Mother Goddess Ma and has been transformed into Turkish as “Mabet”, the holy place of God. Turkish Masons call their temples “Mabet”. Another name given to the Holy Kabe of Muslims is Beytullah, which means the House of Allah.46
The word Ma has been transformed into Western languages as “matter-mother”. The other name “Son”, as mentioned earlier, is also still being used in the same languages. The name given to stone builders who built temples for Ma and Ma priests was “Mason”, just as it was in Atlantis. Masons are the Sons of Ma, that is the children of the Mother Goddess. The first Mason is Ma’s son Apollo, the Sun God. His followers are equally called the Masons. As Ma represented the two main continents where the teaching had initiated from, and her son being the Sun, it would be quite right to call the Masons “The Sons of Atlantis and Mu”; in other words, the “Sons of the Sun and Light”.
Currently, the term “Sons of the Light” is an expression used by modern-day Freemasons for defining themselves. The very first known source of another expression used by the Masons to define themselves as the “Children of the Widow”, was also the Luvis. When Attis, the husband of mother goddess Ma, had an affair with a mortal woman, she and her husband had a raging quarrel. In order to free himself from his wife’s jealous attack, Attis cut off his male organ and died of hemorrhage. The children of Ma, the Masons, were then the children of the widow.
Attis, later, was buried by a river and a big pine tree grew on the point where he was interred. This tree had been regarded as the symbol of reincarnation. Each year, the priests of Ma would cut off the newly accepted priests’ sexual organs, and they were all made eunuchs. They would hang their organs as a vow to Attis on the branches of the holy pine tree and would purify themselves by bathing in the river. Hence, it can be seen that circumcision and baptism ceremonies also date back to the Luvis.47 The origin of the Christmas Tree tradition also dates back to Luvis. Luvis moved to the southeastern parts of Anatolia around 2 thousand BC, where they met the Saabis. Abraham, the separatist leader of Saabis, ordered his followers to continue the Luvi tradition of cutting sexual organs, but instead of having them cut off from the bottom, he decided to have only the tips cut off and hung on the tree.
Another 2 thousand years passed and Christianity came to these lands. Jesus was against circumcision. So his followers continued the tradition by hanging other kinds of gifts or vow onto the branches of the holy pine tree on Christmas Eve.
During the initiation ceremony of the Luvis, priest candidates were placed in a hole, which was their graves to be. While the candidates were in the hole, the priests would bring a bull and cut its throat. With the blood of the bull pouring onto them, the initiated were purged, and they were taken as reborn. The initiated then were regarded as gods’ equals and were invited to a holy feast, where they were served nectar. The ceremony continued with a mystical unification with the Goddess. The candidates, each one of whom had now become Attis, after touching the male organ of the sacrificed bull joined a symbolic wedding ceremony. In the evening, the initiated would have intercourse with nuns who represented the goddess for just one last time, before becoming eunuchs.
The same practice was later adopted by the Kybele cult, another Anatolian mother goddess.48
