This document discusses the spiritual and symbolic significance of the number five in various spiritual traditions. It provides examples of how the number five represents concepts like the five elements, the five-pointed star, manifestations of the divine in five phases, and classifications of the Tree of Life into five worlds. Magic squares and planetary symbols related to the number five are also examined. The number five holds special significance in traditions like Hinduism, Judaism, Hermeticism and others.
This is the first part of my fourteenth chapter of new book MAJOR ARCANA TAROT CARDS' Secrets Esoterically Revealed. This paper will illustrate how I have interpreted the four decks of Major Arcana Tarot Cards that the Golden Dawn Mystery School created in the first third of the twentieth century and told no one outside their order what they accomplished. The Tarot Cards are all about what takes place in the SKULL. The Tarot Cards symbolizes the Cerebral Lobes of the Brain and how the human psyche thinks.

THE TRINITARIAN PARADIGM: The Double Helix, The Kundalini Serpent, The Breath...William John Meegan
The main thesis of this paper is about the Trinitarian Paradigm. This Trinitarian Paradigm has everything to do with Hebraic Alphabet and how it is you to write the mythoi of the Judaeo Christian Scriptures. Even the New Testament written is Greek is based upon this Trinitarian Paradigm. I have discovered that it is a Memory Technique as to how to write and read symbolism. Just as human learn to read books by studying their cultural alphabet the Trinitarian Paradigm is the method that was developed that allows initiates to go from iconoclastic (not symbolic) thought to iconographic (symbolic) thought.
This paper is a discussion about the five parables in the first twenty-one verses of the thirteenth chapter of Luke’s gospel that is analogous to the Trinitarian Paradigm and mixed with that discussion will be a conversation on the life of Moses corresponding to the Trinitarian Paradigm.
This paper will discuss briefly the Origin of the Hebraic Alphabet that I wrote about in another paper and this paper will discuss, the Lilly: fleur de lis that the Zohar discussed as being laid out in the first two verses of Genesis and a brief word on the Adam and Eve story will be discuss in context to this thesis; in addition, the first chapter of Genesis will be briefly discussed in relationship to the thirty-two (32) times the word Elohym is used to formulate the Kabbalistic Tree of Life via sacred geometry, which illustrates the rise of the Kundalini Serpent up that tree.
Christianity cannot be understood unless the dynamics of the Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit: i.e. Trinitarian Paradigm is understood. When I was a child back in the late 50s and early 60s being taught by priests and nuns I was continuously told that the Trinity cannot be understood; however, that is what the whole of the Old and New Testament is about.

According to the mythoi of the New Testament and Christianity’s traditional mythological histories and story-lines, Christ was born on December 25th 7BC and John the Baptist was born six months earlier on June 24th 7BC. Those that are attentive as to what the scriptural texts are conveying will backtrack, calendar-wise, to both of their conception dates October 1st 8BC (John the Baptist) and April 1st 7BC (Jesus Christ) and forward to their circumcision dates July 1st 7BC (John the Baptist) and January 1st 6BC (Jesus Christ). Such a contemplative meditational analysis will reveal numerous nuances concerning Jesus Christ’s and John the Baptism’s mythoi that would not have been so readily available to consciousness if this kind of contemplative active meditational thought was not put into play.
Then the initiate will have to go further into his or her contemplative meditational analysis by questioning why John the Baptist was conceived and birthed at all if Jesus Christ was the main focus of the New Testament mythoi.
This paper is a sequel to a previous paper: THE BIRTH OF CHRIST and it will augment it by answering those contemplative meditational questions. Something psychically significant had to take place prior to the conception of John the Baptist in order to instigate the Dawn of Christianity.

This paper describes the deepest ESOTERIC SECRET throughout all creation, which includes the deepest ESOTERIC SECRET throughout the Judaeo Christian Religions. In this paper I illustrate how the SHECHINAH'S (Divine Presence) matrix scribes into the Torah the CYCLES OF DIVINE CREATION.
The SCHECHINAH (Divine Presence) is a commentary on the soul's two-part psyche: ego-consciousness and the unconscious mind. This matrix is known all over the world in all cultures in all times and climes.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

1. "The Symbolism and Spiritual Significance
of the Number Five"
by Dee Finney
In the beginning of man's time on earth, he was a simple creature.
When he began to draw his ideas of creation, he drew with simple
lines. The square represents the earth, and the triangle represents
the heavens.The three dots represents the triune God dwelling in
heaven.The five stars represent the full Godhead of five, namely
... the deity and his four great primary or creative forces. The deity
with His Great Forces dwells in Heaven.
.
Manifestations of the Deity are expressed in five phases:
1. Source or Seed--The Ain Soph Aur or Adam Kadmon
2. Root --World of Emanation of Atziluth
3. Tree --World of Creation or Briah
4. Branch --World of Formation or Yetzirah
5. Fruit --World of Action or Assiah
These five phases form a schema of the Tree of Life.
2. Note: This is analogous to a description of the fourth dimension. Imagine an
acorn then envision an oak tree. All in an instantaneous thought you could see
in your mind the three dimensions of the acorn's change into an oak tree with
the added dimension of time included. Thus you were looking at all sides of the
object at once.
“The ten sephiroth of the Tree of Life are classified in five stages or phases,
which are known as worlds. The ten sephiroth have been extended further, by
veiling their light so that man could receive it. This process had been repeated
four times until the light was sufficiently diffused for man to partake of the
Infinite Light. This resulted in the Four Worlds of the Kabbalists. The first
world emanated from the Infinite Light in the form of the Primordial Point was
that of Adam Kadmon. The second world emanated from Adam Kadmon was
the World of Emanation of Atziluth, also composed of the ten sephiroth, but
with dimmer lights. Then came the ten sephiroth that made the World of
Creation, or Briah, followed by the World of Formation, Yetzirah, and lastly,
the World of Action, Assiah, which is also the world of man.”
"The Cabala is older than the revelation of Sinai. It goes back to prehistoric
times. Moses only introduced it into the history of Israel. Moses received
(Kibel: from this term 'Cabala' is derived) the Torah ('teaching,' 'Law') on
Mount Sinai."
Torah [Heb. towrah, to-raw’, or torah, from Heb. 3384, a precept or statute,
espec. the Decalogue or Pentateuch, law, direction, instruction] the entire body
of religious law and learning including both sacred literature and oral tradition.
A scroll of parchment containing the first five books of the Hebrew Scriptures,
used in a synagogue during services.
In the Occult Doctrines, this Divine Breath, Spirit, ensouls the dust of the Four
Physical Elements (which modern science describes as the Four States of
Matter - plasma, gas, liquid, and solid; which are bound together by the Four
Forces of Nature - stong, weak, electromagnetic, and gravity). These states
were identified by the early Alchemists as Fire, Water, Air, and Earth, abstract
concepts which form the matrix upon which the layers of existence and reality
are woven, like cloth on a loom. The symbology of the Breath of Life, Spirit,
ensouled in the dust of the Four Elements was said to be exemplified by the
human hand, with the thumb representing Spirit, and the other digits
representing the Elements. Another cognate symbol is the ancient Pentagram,
the five-pointed star, with each point signifying Spirit, Earth, Water, Air, and
Fire. The Egyptians called this symbol Khabs, which translates as both Star and
3. God. As it is written in Liber AL vel Legis, the threefold Book of Law: "Every
man and every woman is a star."
This symbol of the five-pointed Star and the corresponding number five have
been consonant symbols for Man for as long as there has been written record,
dating back to the earliest centuries with the Hindu Vedas. Isn't it interesting
how this symbol has somehow devolved into an icon of evil, attributed to
Satanic works?
It might then appear that God's bestowal of the gift of Divine Breath unto Man
ultimately led to the plucking of the forbidden fruit from the Tree of the
Knowledge of Good and Evil, an act which caused the Creator God Elohim
(literally Gods - plural) to forget themselves in their displeasure and give away
the Secret: "Behold, the man has become as one of us..."before indignantly
ejecting Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden into our harsh world of toil
and trouble. This parable is, of course, a not too subtle metaphor for
humankind's collective Initiation unto his Divine Inheritance through the
ordeals of Experience - physical incarnation. The Fall of Man describes how
we have, quite necessarily, forgotten our intrinsic link with Spirit.
In esoteric lore, the cosmic memory of Akasha is often referred to as the
Akashic Records, which we all have access to right now, as we live and
breathe; we need only to find a way to Remember to regain our Divine
inheritance. In essence, all religious Traditions, including the Qabalah, are
simply templates or maps designed to teach and lead us to the Remembrance of
the long-forgotten Mystery Language of the Ancients, and thus reclaim our
connection with Akasha, Spirit, and Silent Knowledge. In fact, the root of the
term religion is the Latin word religio - to reconnect.
Pentateuch
The Pentateuch [Heb. torah, law or teaching] means five books, and it is
referred to by the Jews as the Torah or the Law. It consists of Genesis, Exodus,
Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. The following is called the Graf-
Wellhausen theory:
"Many scholars today, using textual data, believe that the Pentateuch actually
came from five independent sources. They say that later editors, working at
various periods, wove the sources into a unified work. They refer to these
sources by the following symbols:
4. J and E, the two earliest documents, written about 1,000 B.C. to 900 B.C. J uses
the divine name Jehovah, or Yahweh, for God and E uses the name Elohim to
refer to God.
D, or Deuteronomy, a scroll found in Jerusalem in 621 B.C during the reform
of Josiah.
H, or Holiness Code, a short collection of laws.
P, or Priestly Code, probably completed during the Babylonian Exile of the
Jews in 500 B.C
ABRAHAM'S COVENANT
To go back to the Old Testament history we have God's Covenant with
Abraham stamped with this number of Divine perfection (Gen 15). It was (like
David's, 2 Samuel 7) Divinely "ordered in all things, and sure." God was ONE,
i.e., the one party to it; for Abraham, who would willingly have been the other
party, was put to sleep, that the Covenant might be unconditional, and "sure to
all his seed." The Divine seal is seen in the choice of three animals, each of
three years old (the heifer, the she-goat, and the ram). These, together with the
two birds (the dove and the pigeon), made five in all, marking it all as a perfect
act of free-grace on the part of a sovereign God.
Features of Sri Hanuman
According to Saint Tulsidas, Sri Hanuman is bestowed with golden colour,
beautiful curly hair, wears a sacred thread made of sacred grass, and shining
earrings. He is very learned, adept in all scriptures including astrology and the
Vedas, extremely intelligent, virtuous, and a great lover of music. Since He has
a body as strong as the thunderbolt, He is also called Bajrangbali. Bajrang
means thunderbolt.
According to Hanumath Prakaranam in Sri Vidyarnavatantram, Anjaneya has
five faces (Pancha Mukha) and ten weapons. The five faces are that of Lord
Hanuman, Lord Narasimha, Lord Adivaraha, Lord Hayagriva, and Lord
Garuda. There is a belief that one of the faces is that of Sri Vinayaka. The idol
of Adyanta Maha Prabhu depicts a figure of half Anjaneya and half Vinayaka.
He is a great yogi (mystic) having transcended the five senses (Pancha
Indriyas).
5. In Kamba Ramayanam (in Tamil), the significance of number five is
beautifully narrated as follows: The son of one of the five (son of wind – that is
Pavana Thanaya), crossed one of the five (water – the ocean), through one of
the five (sky), met daughter of one of the five (daughter of the earth – Sita
Devi), burnt down Lanka by one of the five (fire). Here five means the five
elements.
Sundara Kandam, which highlights the heroic exploits of Lord Hanuman at
Lanka is the fifth canto in the Ramayana. Therefore, it is considered auspicious
to go around His idol 5 times, 14 times, 23 times, 32 times or with such
numbers the digits of which add to five.

Each row equals 65 in every direction and represents the planet Mars. It follows
the traditional Babylonian arrangement of the heavenly spheres. The closer one
comes to the earth the larger the square becomes. These magic squares
represent archetypal patterns of energy and are mathematical reflections of the
underlying natural order. Magic squares brilliantly reveal the intrinsic harmony
and symmetry of numbers with their curious and mystic charm they appear to
betray some hidden intelligence that governs the cosmic order that dominates
all existence. The numbers of planetary squares have been used in formulating
the names of planetary spirits and intelligences, in constructing planetary
talismans, in determining the emasurements of temples, and so on. To those
initiated into the mysteries of the old cosmologies, the divinities or archtypes of
nature were recognized as autonomous patterns of energy which leave their
imprint on many levels of human experience.

also represents the
planet Mars, and the
numbers of the points
are:

8. This is the Chaldean arrangement of the planets,set out upon
the "Tree of Life" from the Jewish kabbalistic tradition from
which the traditional number of the planet is derivied. The sun,
which orchestrates the celestial dance,occupies the heart of
the cosmic tree. Some other tradiional attriibutes of the
planetary symbols are provided in the chart of correspondences
for reference.
In the pessimist schoolof gnosis,humanity is unconscious,
ruled by astrological Fate, and is trapped in a material world
which was created in ignorance and error. Only the saving
knowledge imparted by the Gnostic Revealer will awaken
slumbering humanity to its true nature and celestial origin.
In contrast,in the optimist schoolof Gnosis, the kosmos is a
beautiful theophany,a manifestation of the divine. Optimist
gnosis realizes that "the world is full of gods" and that humanity
rather than being imprisoned in lifeless earth, treads, in fact,
upon the bottomof the sky.

The high-priest Hilkiah is said to have found the Book of the Law, the Hindu
Puranas (Scriptures) which were known to the Assyrians. These had for many
centuries held dominion from the Hellespont to the Indus, and probably
crowded the Aryans out of Bactriana into the Punjab. The Book of the Law
seems to have been a purana. "The learned Brahmans," says Sir William Jones,
"pretend that five conditions are requisite to constitute a real purana:
"1. To treat of the creation of matter in general.
10. "2. To treat of the creation or production of secondary material and spiritual
beings.
"3. To give a chronological abridgment of the great periods of time.
"4. To give a genealogical abridgment of the principal families that reigned
over the country.
"5. Lastly, to give the history of some great man in particular."
It is pretty certain that whoever wrote the Pentateuch had this plan before him,
as well as those who wrote the New Testament had become thoroughly well
acquainted with Buddhistic ritualistic worship, legends and doctrines, through
the Buddhist missionaries who were many in those days in Palestine and
Greece.
Kali Yantra. The encompassing circle is avidya (ignorance);the eight petalled lotus is the eight-fold Prkriti
consisting of earth, wter, fire, air, ether, manas (mind), buddhi (intellect) and ahamkara (egoism); the five
triangles are the five jnanendriyas (jnana, knowledge; indriyas, senses),the five karmendriyas (motor
organs)and the five pranas (breathing activities); and the bindu which is pure consciousness reflected in
maya in the bija.
A yantra, which means 'aid' or 'tool', is generally drawn on paper or engraved on metal, either to aid
meditation or as a tangible image of the deity. Just as a mantra is a sound equivalent,the yantra is a
diagrammatic equivalent of the deity and consists oflinear and spatial geometrical permutations of the
deity. The primal abstract shapes,such as the point, line, circle, triangle, square,are harmonized in
composition to provide a formal equilibrium which is both static and dynamic. A common feature of the
yantra is that it possessesan element of centrality around which the whole figure is built up. The centre as
point of origin and balance evolkes the idea of emanation and radiation. Enveloped in vertical and
11. horizontal extensions it conveys a sense of formal mathematical order and regularity. Thus, yantra
represents an energy pattern whose force increases in proportion to the abstraction and precision of the
diagram.
Kriya Dhyana Yoga consists of a series of meditation techniques to master the
unruly mind. It includes the five senses and their subtle counterparts, such as
clairvoyance, clairaudience, and clairsentience. It cleanses the subconscious
mind. Kriya Mantra Yoga. The mantras have been discovered by the Siddhas
during profound states of meditation.

If we now examine the ten mythical avatars of Vishnu, we find them recorded in the following progression:
1. Matsya-Avatar:as a fish. It will also be his tenth and last avatar, at the end of the Kali-yug.
2. Kurm-Avatar: as a tortoise.
3. Varaha: as a boar.
4. Nara-Sing: as a man-lion; last animal stage.
5. Vamuna: as a dwarf; first step toward the human form.
6. Parasu-Rama: as a hero, but yet an imperfect man.
7. Rama-Chandra: as the hero of Ramayana. Physically a perfect man; his next of kin, friend and ally
Hanouma, the monkey-god. The monkey endowed with speech.**
8. Christna-Avatar: the Son of the Virgin Devanaguy (or Devaki) one formed by God, or rather by the
manifested Deity Vishnu, who is identical with Adam Kadmon.*** Christna is also called Kaneya, the Son
of the Virgin.
9. Gautama-Buddha, Siddhartha, or Sakya-muni. (The Buddhists reject this doctrine of their Buddha being
an incarnation of Vishnu.)
10. This avatar has not yet occurred. It is expected in the future, like the Christian Advent,the idea of
which was undoubtedly copied from the Hindu. When Vishnu appears for the last time he will come as a
"Saviour." According to the opinion of some Brahmans he will appearhimself underthe form of the horse
Kalki. Others maintain that he will be mounting it.This horse is the envelope of the spirit of evil, and
Vishnu will mount it, invisible to all, till he has conquered it for the last time. The "Kalki-Avataram," or the
last incarnation, divides Brahmanism into two sects.That of the Vaihnava refuses to recognize the
incarnations of their god Vishnu in animal forms literally. They claim that these must be understood as
allegorical.
In this diagram of avatars we see traced the gradual evolution and transformation of all species out of the
ante-Silurian mud of Darwin and the ilus of Sanchoniathon and Berosus.Beginning with the Azoic time,
corresponding to the ilus in which Brahma implants the creative germ, we pass through the Palaeozoic and
12. Mesozoic times, covered by the first and second incarnations as the fish and tortois e; and the Cenozoic,
which is embraced by the incarnations in the animal and semi-human forms of the boar and man-lion; and
we come to the fifth and crowning geological period, designated as the "era of mind, or age of man," whose
symbol in the Hindu mythology is the dwarf -- the first attempt of nature at the creation of man. In this
diagram we should follow the main idea, not judge the degree of knowledge of the ancient philosophers by
the literal acceptance of the popular form in which it is presented to us in the grand epical poem of Maha-
Bharata and its chapter the Bagaved-gitta.
Even the four ages of the Hindu chronology contain a far more philosophical idea than appears on the
surface. It defines them according to both the psychologicalor mental and the physicalstates of man during
their period. Crita-yug, the golden age, the "age of joy," or spiritual innocence of man; Treta-yug, the age
of silver, or that of fire -- the period of supremacy of man and of giants and of the sons of God; Dwapara-
yug, the age of bronze -- a mixture already of purity and impurity (spirit and matter) the age of doubt; and
at last our own, the Kali-yug, or age of iron, of darkness,misery, and sorrow. In this age, Vishnu had to
incarnate himself in Christna, in order to save humanity from the goddess Kali, consort of Siva, the all-
annihilating -- the goddess ofdeath,destruction,and human misery. Kali is the best emblem to represent
the "fall of man"; the falling of spirit into the degradation of matter, with all its terrific results.We have to
rid ourselves of Kali before we can ever reach "Moksha," or Nirvana, the abode of blessed Peace and Spirit.
With the Buddhists the last incarnation is the fifth. When Maitree-Buddha comes, then our present world
will be destroyed; and a new and a better one will replace it. The four arms of every Hindu Deity are the
emblems of the four preceding manifestations of our earth from its invisible state,while its head typifies
the fifth and last Kalki-Avatar, when this would be destroyed, and the power of Budh -- Wisdom (with the
Hindus, of Brahma), will be again called into requisition to manifest itself -- as a Logos -- to create the
future world.
The male gods typify Spirit in its deific attributes while their female counterparts -- the Sakti, represent the
active energies of these attributes.The Durga (active virtue), is a subtile, invisible force, which answers to
Shekinah -- the garment of En-Soph. She is the Sakti through which the passive "Eternal" calls forth the
visible universe from its first ideal conception.Every one of the three personages ofthe exoteric Trimurti
are shown as using their Sakti as a Vehan (vehicle). Each of them is for the time being the form which sits
upon the mysterious wagon of Ezekiel.
Nor do we see less clearly carried out in this succession ofavatars,the truly philosophical idea of a
simultaneous spiritual and physical evolution of creatures and man. From a fish the progress of this dual
transformation carries on the physical form through the shape of a tortoise, a boar, and a man-lion; and
then, appearing in the dwarf of humanity, it shows Parasu Rama physically, a perfect, spiritually, an
undeveloped entity, until it carries mankind personified by one god-like man, to the apex of physical and
spiritual perfection -- a god on earth. In Christna and the other Saviours of the world we see the
philosophical idea of the progressive dual development understood and as clearly expressed in the Sohar.
The "Heavenly man," who is the Protogonos,Tikkun, the first-born of God, or the universal Form and Idea,
engenders Adam. Hence the latter is god-born in humanity, and endowed with the attributes of all the ten
Sephiroth. These are: Wisdom, Intelligence, Justice, Love, Beauty, Splendor, Firmness, etc. They make
him the Foundation or basis, "the mighty living one," and the crown of creation, thus placing him as the
Alpha and Omega to reign over the "kingdom" -- Malchuth. "Man is both the import and the highest degree
of creation," says the Sohar. "As soon as man was created, everything was complete, including the upper
and netherworlds, for everything is comprised in man. He unites in himself all forms"
The five-pointed staris the signet of Vishnu, in India.
It is well known, that the earliest Christian emblems -- before it was ever attempted to represent the bodily
appearance of Jesus -- were the Lamb, the Good Shepherd, and the Fish. The origin of the latter emblem,
which has so puzzled the archaeologists,thus becomes comprehensible. The whole secret lies in the easily-
13. ascertained fact that,while in the Kabala, the King Messiah is called "Interpreter," or Revealer of the
mystery, and shown to be the fifth emanation, in the Talmud -- for reasons we will now explain -- the
Messiah is very often designated as "DAG," or the Fish. This is an inheritance from the Chaldees, and
relates -- as the very name indicates -- to the Babylonian Dagon, the man-fish, who was the instructorand
interpreter of the people, to whom he appeared.Abarbanel explains the name, by stating that the sign of his
(Messiah's)coming "is the conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in the sign Pisces."* Therefore, as the
Christians were intent upon identifying their Christos with the Messiah of the Old Testament, they adopted
it so readily as to forget that its true origin might be traced still farther back than the Babylonian Dagon.
How eagerly and closely the ideal of Jesus was united, by the early Christians, with every imaginable
kabalistic and Pagan tenet, may be inferred from the language of Clemens, of Alexandria, addressed to his
brother co-religionists.
When they were debating upon the choice of the most appropriate symbol to remind them of Jesus,
Clemens advised them in the following words: "Let the engraving upon the gem of yourring be either a
dove, or a ship running before the wind (the Argha), or a fish." Was the good father, when writing this
sentence,laboring under the recollection of Joshua,son of Nun (called Jesus in the Greek and Slavonian
versions); or had he forgotten the real interpretation of these Pagan symbols?
* King ("Gnostics") gives the figure of a Christian symbol, very common during the middle ages, of three
fishes interlaced into a triangle, and having the FIVE letters (a most sacred Pythagorean number) [[I. CH.
THUS.]] engraved on it. The number five relates to the same kabalistic computation.
Joshua,son of Nun, or Nave (Navis), could have with perfect propriety adopted the image of a ship,or even
of a fish, for Joshua means Jesus,son of the fish-god; but it was really too hazardous to connect the
emblems of Venus, Astarte,and all the Hindu goddesses --the argha, dove, and fish -- with the
"immaculate" birth of their god! This looks very much as if in the early days of Christianity but little
difference was made between Christ, Bacchus, Apollo, and the Hindu Christna, the incarnation of Vishnu,
with whose first avatar this symbol of the fish originated.
In the Hari-purana, in the Bagaved-gitta, as well as in several other books,the god Vishnu is shown as
having assumed the form of a fish with a human head, in order to reclaim the Vedas lost during the deluge.
Having enabled Visvamitra to escape with all his tribe in the ark, Vishnu, pitying weak and ignorant
14. humanity, remained with them for some time. It was this god who taught themto build houses,cultivate the
land, and to thank the unknown Deity whom he represented,by building temples and instituting a regular
worship; and, as he remained half-fish, half-man, all the time, at every sunset he used to return to the ocean,
wherein he passed the night.
"It is he," says the sacred book, "who taught men, after the diluvium, all that was necessary for their
happiness.
"One day he plunged into the water and returned no more, for the earth had covered itself again with
vegetation,fruit, and cattle.
"But he had taught the Brahmas the secret of all things" (Hari-purana).
