horns stood for the Front aspect as a half-moon with horns upwards (the Allat sign) and
as a symbol of the possibility of escape into a different world. On the bull's body, they
usually placed the sign of the circle, in which six lines were inscribed like a star with six
rays. The latter is a symbol of the six material dimensions dominated by the Animal
mind. And if the six rays of the star looked like a diagonal cross intersected with a
horizontal line, then the two horizontal rays (the "minuses") also pointed at the control
by a person of his lateral Aspects or, conversely, at their activity, depending on
additional signs. Incidentally, special emphasis was made on the bull's body either on
the abdomen as an associative image of the container of the Animal world or on the back
in the associative understanding of the carrier (base) of the material world. Appropriate
signs were placed there. Later, when religion appeared as an institution of power and
control, a total destruction of the old beliefs began, and some priests turned the symbol
of the bull into a "sacred image" to be worshiped by the masses, concealing the true
knowledge, while other priests, fighting for their own power, started interpreting the bull
as a negative image together with the knowledge that it represented.
Anastasia: Such a substitution of an associative image for a sacred one can be traced in
modern beliefs nowadays. In such religions as Hinduism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism, the
cow is still revered as a sacred animal. Eating its meat in Hinduism is taboo, and earlier,
in the first centuries of the Common Era, India’s rulers regarded the killing of cows by
any resident as a terrible crime that was punishable by death. I'm not even mentioning
the fact that all the products and waste of this animal in these religions are still
considered as "sacred and cleansing" and "panacea for all the spiritual and physical
ailments". And what remained of the spiritual knowledge? Practically nothing, just the
general philosophy with the material inclination towards worshipping an ordinary
animal. As a result, entire generations of people, instead of actually working on a
spiritual plane, are pleasing a common ruminant cloven-hoofed animal.
Rigden: Yes, the Animal mind is strong in its substitutions.
Anastasia: How quickly after all it implements its substitutions in the human
consciousness and how long all this is preserved in the human society. All these ancient
cultures that existed on the territory of ancient Eurasia and their echoes testify that
people possessed the spiritual Knowledge, which was more important to them than
everyday life. Apart from the above mentioned cultures, there are many others that
existed in the ancient times and that had the same symbols and signs. For example, the
Hassouna and Halaf cultures (the 5th millennium BCE; the territory of the present Iraq
