The Lady Odin's Lair

The FATES are a well known force in the world of gods and men, and are the only ones who the gods fear and attempt to bribe and propitiate. Each culture has its own version of such beings who decide the destiny of all living things, including planets and universes. It's just another one of the mysteries that make life so dramatic and interesting. God might not play dice with the universe, but the Fates most certainly do. From our perspective, there is no apparent rhyme or reason for their decisions. So don't get outraged at localised fractal iterations ... unless it's your fate to do so. You could just deal with it and go along for the ride, the adventure, the quest of it. Musing ... would the Fates still have influence over beings in Heaven as well? This isn't intended to be a class in the Fates ... you can do your own digging if the details interest you. Now, I'm of the considered opinion that the mythic Norse pantheon is just a localised version of the same pant...

Mount Kailash—the Stairway to Heaven—is the most intriguing mountain range is the whole of Himalayas. Mount Kailash is 22,000 ft from the Tibetan Plateau, which is largely considered to be inaccessible. It is also known as Kangrinboqe, which means Holy Mountain in Tibetan. Both geography and mythology play roles in the sacred significance of Mount Kailash. Kila+ Asa is Kailash. Kila is really and Asa is seat, hope, desire, space, and region. Kailash is a particular form of temple, mountain peak in Himalaya. It also means “crystal,” the 'Treasure or Saint of Snow Mountain' and is a “precious jewel of snows.” The kingdom of Shiva is an entire complex of smaller pyramids, a hundred in total. This world pillar is mysterious mountains in the world, all earthly forces of power and greed forever sealed, and knowledge kept hidden. The universe is made of many such worlds. In the book ‘Yoga, Enlightenment and Perfection’ the Swamiji himself has stated that the night he took Sanyasam at ...

I need a place to place these, and similar images that bind together the mythic past with the present and the future. I'm not really an art expert by any means, so I can't make an intelligent comment on the style of this art, but it looks folklore-ish. The kind of art you might find in a book of fables and legends. But, personally, I think this is simplistic. The artists - I presume there's more than one - have hidden clues in plain view. At least that's my sense ... and why I find these so highly evocative, like they're resonating with a deep corner of my soul. As I discover the names of the artists behind some of these images, I'll add them below. Boris Olshansky     Vsevolod Ivanov  (also seen as Ivanov Vsevolod)   Temple by Ivanov Vsevolod

Some points I want to make clear first up ... One : this post is a curation of the images, videos, and details that I can gather, along with my observations, comparisons, and conjectures about the seemingly intact beings found in sarcophagi in various parts of the world. I say 'seemingly intact' because I don't know if they are embalmed or not, or if they have all their internal organs in situ . Two : I don't know with ANY certainty that these beings depicted in stasis are, in fact, Anunnaki. They may be, in fact, simply human or they may be of another race altogether. Indeed, they could even be Nephilim (whatever that means in actuality.) I have no way of knowing.  Three : I have no idea if these are hoaxes as many academics claim. However, I suspect not, as they are incredibly elaborate (for what purpose?). So I will proceed in good faith as if these beings are authentic even if the stories around them are dubious. Four: With regard to frequent the Giant attributions...
