RETURN OF THE SERPENTS OF WISDOM

by Mark Amaru Pinkham

This book recounts the complete history and teachings of the spiritual masters around the world who have been associated with the serpent. According to this book, ancient records claim that spiritual masters associated with the serpent initially appeared within Motherlands which once existed in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. These Motherlands are referred to as Atlantis, Pan, or the Old Red Land of the Atlantic, and as Lemuria, Mu, Rua, or Kumari Nadu in the Pacific. The records maintain that the ancestors of the first "Serpents" were extraterrestrials who came to Earth and mated with the native population. The records further maintain that when the Motherlands were destroyed, the Serpents migrated to various parts of the world and founded new civilizations. Within these civilizations they reigned as priest kings and as the heads of mystery school traditions. They taught their new, adopted people the esoteric wisdom and rites they had learned on the Motherlands. In India these colonial Serpents and their descendants became known as the Nagas (Sanscrit for Serpent); in China they were known as the Lung Dragons; in Egypt they were referred to as the Djedhi (the "Stable Serpents"); in Peru they were the Amarus (Quechuan for Serpent); in Mexico they were called the Quetzlcoatls (Nahuatl for "Plumed Serpent"); in Britain they were the Druid Adders (Welsh for Serpents). Some of the wisdom the migrating Serpents carried with them from the Motherlands concerned the awakening of the internal "Serpent Power," the latent, alchemical force within humans which normally lies dormant at the base of the spine. Once awakened, this mysterious power moves up the spine of a seeker and eventually transmutes him or her into a living god and goddess. Pyramidal temples and mystery schools were established around the globe by the Serpents in order to disseminate the wisdom of the Serpent Power and promote its awakening within worthy seekers. Megalithic reminders of their ancient schools survive as the Great Pyramid of Egypt, Stonehenge of Britain, Machu Picchu of Peru, and Teotihuacan of Mexico. During the rise of Christianity, the Serpents were forced to hide within clandestine orders or become assimilated into eastern cultures which welcomed their ancient rites and practices. In the west the Serpents continued to survive as the Freemasons, Templars, and Rosicrucians- organizations which from their inception strove to overthrow the shackles of Christianity and eventually transform the entire Earth into a world based upon freedom of belief and speech. According to the prophecies of many traditions mentioned in this book, the free world dreamed of by the Serpents is now on the threshold. We will soon move into a new cycle of time called the 5th World, the World of Love, and the World of Venus. This time period has also been referred to as "the thousand year reign of Christ" and as the Aquarian Age. In the 5th World all polarities, all nationalities, and all ideologies will unite through the power of love. The perennial battle between science and religion will come to a conclusion and the two will unite as Sacred Science. Many people will have the opportunity to fully develop the Serpent Power and become Serpents during this New Age. They, and other "returning" Serpents, will oversee the creation of a new World Government.

The Serpent is a most ancient and primordial symbol in human consciousness. Mythologies throughout the world abound with stories about snakes and their relations with humans. This book is an extraordinary synthesis of esoteric wisdom combining the serpent history since Atlantis and Lumeria, alchemy, mysticism, occultism, and the ancient mystery schools. This book triggers inner memory and awakens initiatic consciousness. I recommend this book to any spiritual readers walking the path of Kundalini awakening. Readers of ancient secretive knowledge and those who studied reptilian theories will also find this book fascinating. Gnostics and druids will find this book to be a great addition to their library.

A must read for those interested in the deepest knowledge from the ancients.

'The Return' discusses various cosmologies from the Maya to the Egyptians and who brought it to them. He ties all that history into what it means for us during this time as we align with the center of our Milky Way Galaxy, reach the final 'leg' of our Earth's Precessional and transition into the 5th world.

The conclusion of the book details instructions on how to tap into and utilize the energies we are being presented with and asks us to consider the bigger Exopolitical picture; the lines of which are being drawn well beyond the boundaries of our geopolitical environment.

If Mark put away his new age antics and his personal visions this book could be at the very least insightful. Though there are many good correlations of the Serpent symbol across the globe and he does a good job at providing information on where these symbols can be found. It is still his own theory and not totally proven truth.
Read with an open mind to new ideas but take from it what makes sense to you.

This book was the perfect scratch to the curiosity itch. Serpent and dragon symbolism tracked through all cultures. I was captivated from beginning to end.
