Even Plato spoke about the versatility of the symbolic eye. He considered it the main solar instrument. At the same time, the ancient philosopher pointed to various aspects of the symbol. This is the mind, and insight, and the possibility of studying, and at the same time - limited perception. And what does the eye in the triangle mean, which can now be found on buildings, banknotes and the human body? Let's figure it out.

Different understanding of the symbol "eye in a triangle"

Today it is generally accepted that this is a Masonic sign. It is found everywhere. Most of the conspiracy theories arose because of its presence on the dollar bill. However, this is misleading. The eye in the triangle was known different nations. He was painted in the West and in Eastern countries. The meaning was (and still is) about the same. The Indians, for example, so denoted the Great Spirit, who monitors the behavior of people. In Buddhism, the eye was considered a symbol of wisdom. He was also identified with the light of knowledge. By the way, this is where the term “third eye” comes from. This is inner vision, capable of recognizing the subtle world. However, the West and the East, so to speak, mirrored this symbol. People associated the left and right eye with night and day, past and future. In the West, the right eye has become a symbol of the Sun, the left - the Moon. In the East they were interpreted exactly the opposite.

Egyptian philosophy

It is generally accepted that the eye in the triangle is one of the symbols ancient world. More specifically, he came to us from Egypt. This great civilization created a vast, multi-level belief system. Their eye was considered an attribute of the Great Horus. It was a powerful and formidable god. It is impossible to hide from him, the Egyptians believed. He sees and knows everything, but he does not need reasons for anger. He is always ready to punish sinners. In addition, this symbol was associated with insight, enlightenment of the soul.

If an eyebrow was attached to the eye, then the meaning changed. They saw in him the power and strength of Horus. By the way, in those days, not everyone was allowed to wear it on the body. After all, the picture itself was considered holy. The priests used it as a talisman against evil forces. Today in museums there are ceramic products, frescoes with such a picture. These are household items of the priestly caste and the nobility of Ancient Egypt. Ordinary people were not allowed to reproduce it in their homes. Maybe the popularity of this combination is connected with this ban? A triangle with an eye, as some people believe, has magical properties. Although in our time it may be associated with more mundane things. For example, with the popularity of the world currency - the dollar. It is in the minds of people associated with this Masonic symbol.

Why in a triangle?

If everything is more or less clear with the eye, then it should be explained where the eye appeared in this combination. geometric figure formed by three planes. This is a rather difficult question. There is a theory according to which the triangle symbolizes the Holy Trinity. By the way, such an image is found on Christian and Catholic icons. The clergy explain that the triangle with the eye denotes together the Almighty. He is in heaven, but it is impossible to hide from his attention. The Lord sees the deeds of all believers, evaluates and controls their thoughts and feelings. Everyone will be rewarded according to their merits on the day of the Great Judgment.

Triangle eye tattoo

The deep meaning of this symbol is known to many people. The picture is now often used for tattoos. Some are attracted by the smack of the mystery of the Masonic sign, others sincerely consider it magical. People believe that such a tattoo can protect them from evil. Perhaps this is so, given the effect of self-hypnosis. This tattoo is more popular with males. Most often it is applied to the neck or biceps.

Pictures are bright and colorful. Girls are also attracted mystical symbol. They prefer to get a small tattoo on their wrist or lower back. It is believed that it protects from the curse, promotes the realization of creative abilities and talents. Although if you do not work, then no picture on the skin will help.

Studying the topic: “The Eye in the Triangle: Meaning and Meaning”, you will inevitably come across some oddities. The fact is that this image was considered sacred. His "magic" was cherished and strictly guarded. Freemasons and other "masters" of mankind are not particularly inclined to share their secrets. So why did this element appear on banknotes? After all, it is clear that in this way it was made public property, even planetary. For what purpose was this done? The mistake of conceptual overlords? Or does the introduction of a sacred element into everyday life have a deeper meaning? This issue is not up for discussion. However, there is something to think about here. Is it not the desire to subdue humanity that is behind such actions, as conspiracy theorists believe? Or maybe somewhere a new conceptual theory has already matured, and they just get rid of the old one, debunking it?

Symbols are the most international and timeless language. We see them every day and roughly know what they mean. However, symbols in the course of their thousand-year history could change their meaning to the opposite.

Yin Yang

Appearance time: According to the well-known Russian orientalist, Doctor of Historical Sciences Alexei Maslov, the yin-yang symbolism was probably borrowed by the Taoists from Buddhists in the 1st-3rd centuries: “they were attracted by Buddhist drawn symbols - and Taoism had its own“ mandala ”: the famous black and white“ fish "yin and yang".

Where used: The concept of yin-yang is the key to Taoism and Confucianism, the doctrine of yin-yang is one of the foundations of traditional Chinese medicine.

Values: In the Book of Changes, yang and yin were used to express light and dark, hard and soft. In the process of development of Chinese philosophy, yang and yin increasingly symbolized the interaction of extreme opposites: light and dark, day and night, sun and moon, sky and earth, heat and cold, positive and negative, even and odd, and so on.

Initially, "yin" meant "northern, shady", and "yang" - "southern, sunny slope of the mountain." Later, "yin" was perceived as negative, cold, dark and feminine, and "yang" as positive, bright, warm and masculine.

Being the main (fundamental) model of everything that exists, the concept of yin-yang reveals two provisions that explain the nature of Tao. First, everything is constantly changing. Secondly, opposites complement each other (there can be no black without white, and vice versa). The purpose of human existence, therefore, is the balance and harmony of opposites. There can be no "final victory" because there is nothing final, there is no end as such

Magen David

Appearance time: It is authentically known that the hexagram was widely used in the Bronze Age (end of IV-beginning of III millennium BC) on a vast territory: from India to the Middle East.

Where used: IN ancient india the hexagram was called Anahata or Anahata-chakra. The six-pointed star was known in the ancient Near and Middle East. IN Islamic tradition, in Mecca home Muslim shrine- The Kaaba is traditionally covered with a silk veil, on which hexagonal stars are depicted.
They began to associate the six-pointed star with Jewry only in the Middle Ages, and in medieval Arabic books the hexagram is found much more often than in Jewish mystical works, and for the first time images of the hexagram appear in Jewish sacred books in Muslim countries, only in the XIII century reaching Germany. The six-pointed star is found on the flags of the Muslim states of Karaman and Kandara.

There is an assumption that the hexagram was a family symbol of the family of David al-Roi, who lived in Iran, one of the contenders for the role of Mashiach. This is sometimes used to explain the origin of the accepted name of the hexagram: Magen David, or "David's shield".

The Rothschild family, having received the title of nobility, included Magen David in their family coat of arms. Heinrich Heine put a hexagram instead of a signature under his newspaper articles. Subsequently, it was adopted as a symbol of the Zionist movement.

Values: In India, the Anahata hexagram symbolized the attic chakra, the intersection of the male (Shiva) and female (Shakti) principles. In the Middle and Near East, the hexagram was a symbol of the goddess Astarte. The six-pointed star is included in the symbolism of Kabbalah: two triangles superimposed on each other are considered as a visual symbol of the Sefirot.

In the twenties of the twentieth century, Franz Rosenzweig interpreted Magen David as a symbolic expression of his philosophical ideas about the meaning of Judaism and the relationship between Gd, man and the universe.

The connection of the six-pointed star with the Jews was finally established as a result of Nazi policy in Germany. Yellow Magen David has become a symbol of the Holocaust.

Caduceus

Appearance time: The exact time of appearance of the caduceus is unknown. Obviously this is very ancient symbol. It is also found on the monuments of Ancient India and Ancient Egypt, Phoenicia and Sumer, Ancient Greece, Iran, Rome and even Mesoamerica.

In the occult, the caduceus is considered a symbol of the key that opens the limit between darkness and light, good and evil, life and death.

Since the 19th century, the image of the caduceus has often been used in a number of countries (for example, in the USA) as a symbol of medicine, which is the result of a common mistake due to its resemblance to the staff of Asclepius.

The image of the caduceus as an attribute of the god of commerce is traditionally used in the symbols of the Chambers of Commerce and Industry in a number of countries around the world, including Russia.
Before the revolution and in several periods after it, crossed caduceuses were used as a customs emblem.

Today, the caduceus, crossed with a torch, is included in the emblem of the Federal Customs Service and is one of the heraldic symbols of arbitration courts, the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation and the State Tax Service of Ukraine. Since September 2007, the caduceus has been used in the emblem of the Russian Federal Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund.
In heraldry, the caduceus was used in the historical emblems of the following cities of the Russian Empire: Balta, Verkhneudinsk, Yeniseisk, Irbit, Nezhin, Taganrog, Telshev, Tiflis, Ulan-Ude, Feodosia, Kharkov, Berdichev, Talny.

Meaning: The stem of the caduceus is symbolically connected with the tree of life, the axis of the world, and the snakes are with the cyclical rebirth of Nature, with the restoration of the universal Order when it is violated.

The snakes on the caduceus indicate a hidden dynamic in what is outwardly stable, they symbolize two multidirectional flows (up and down), the connection of heaven and earth, God and man (the wings on the caduceus also indicate the connection of heaven and earth, spiritual and material) - everything that is born on earth comes from heaven and, after going through the path of trials and suffering, gains life experience, must rise to heaven.

It is said about Mercury that with his staff - which has since been considered a symbol of peace, harmony - he separated two fighting snakes. Fighting snakes are a mess, chaos, they need to be divided, that is, to distinguish, see opposites and unite, overcome them. Then, having united, they will balance the Axis of the world, and around it from Chaos the Cosmos, harmony will be created. Truth is one, and in order to arrive at it, one must follow the straight road, which is symbolized by the axis of the caduceus.

Caduceus in the Vedic tradition is also interpreted as a symbol of Serpent Fire, or Kundalini. Wrapping around the central axis, the snakes are connected at seven points, they are associated with the chakras. Kundalini, Serpent Fire, sleeps in the base chakra, and when it wakes up as a result of evolution, it ascends along the spine along three paths: the central one, Shushumna, and two side ones, which form two intersecting spirals - Pingala (this is the right, masculine and active, spiral) and Ide (left, female and passive).

Where used: The most famous use of the symbol is on the labarum, the state banner of imperial Rome. The symbol was first introduced by Emperor Constantine the Great after he saw the sign of the cross in the sky on the eve of the Battle of the Milvian Bridge (312).

The labarum of Constantine had a chrysm at the end of the shaft, and on the very cloth there was an inscription: lat. Hoc vince The first mention of the labarum is found in Lactantius (d. c. 320).

Values: Chrism is a monogram of the name of Christ, which consists of two initial Greek letters of the name (Greek ΧΡΙΣΤΌΣ) - Χ (chi) and Ρ (ro), crossed with each other. The Greek letters α and ω are often placed along the edges of the monogram. They go back to the text of the Apocalypse: "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, says the Lord, who is and was and is to come, the Almighty."

A number of later researchers saw in the letters P and X, enclosed in a circle, an ancient pagan symbol Sun. For this reason, Protestants, as a rule, do not recognize the labarum as an original Christian symbol.

In Buddhism, the three sounds of the word "Om" can represent the Body, Speech and Mind of the Buddha, the Three Bodies of the Buddha (Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya, Nirmanakaya) and the three jewels (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha). However, the buddhologist Yevgeny Torchinov noted that the syllable "Om" and similar syllables ("hum", "ah", "hri", "e-ma-ho") "do not have any dictionary meaning" and pointed out that these syllables, unlike from other syllables of mantras represent "sacred untranslatability" in the Mahayana tradition.

Ichthys

Time and place of origin: Images of the acronym ΙΧΘΥΣ (from the Greek. Jesus Christ God's Son The Savior) or the fish symbolizing him first appear in the Roman catacombs in the 2nd century.

On the same day, the sickle and hammer were sent from Zamoskvorechye to the Moscow City Council, and all other sketches were rejected there: a hammer with an anvil, a plow with a sword, a scythe with a wrench. Further, this symbol was transferred to the state emblem of the Soviet Union, and the name of the artist was forgotten for many years. They remembered him only in the post-war period.

16. Anchor

Appearance time: the first centuries of our era.

Where used: Everyone knows the symbol of the anchor as a marine emblem. However, in the first centuries of the new era, the anchor was closely associated with Christianity. For the early Christians, who saw in it the hidden form of the cross, the anchor personified the hope of salvation with caution, security and strength.

In Christian iconography, the anchor, as an emblem of security, is the main attribute of St. Nicholas of Myra - the patron saint of sailors. Another meaning should be attributed to the anchor of the semi-legendary Pope Clement (88?-97?). According to church tradition, during the period of persecution of Christians, the pagans hung an anchor around the Pope's neck and drowned him in the sea. However, the sea waves soon parted, exposing the temple of God at the bottom. In this mythical underwater temple, the body of the holy champion of the faith was allegedly discovered.
Values: There are several anchor values. The anchor is a sacred object to which sacrifices were made, because it was often the only salvation for sailors. On the coins of Greece, Syria, Carthage, Phoenicia and Rome, the anchor was more often than others depicted as a symbol of hope.

In art ancient rome the anchor symbolized the joy of returning home after a long journey. On the graves of the 1st century, the image of an anchor was associated with the image of the church as a ship that carries souls across the stormy sea of ​​life.

The Apostle Paul in his letter to the Hebrews compared hope to a safe and strong anchor. The Greek word "ankura" (anchor) was associated with the Latin expression "en kurio", that is, "in the Lord.
IN fine arts The Renaissance anchor also means an attribute of hope. The allegorical emblem, which depicts a dolphin with an anchor, was especially popular in Renaissance painting. The dolphin symbolized speed, and the anchor - restraint. At the bottom of the emblem was the inscription: "Hurry up slowly"

Olympic rings

Appearance time: The Olympic emblem was first introduced in 1920 at the 8th Summer Olympic Games in Antwerp.
Where is used: One of the most recognizable symbols in the world consists of five rings, the uniqueness of the emblem lies in the simplicity of execution. The rings are arranged in a W-shaped order, the colors are arranged in a strict order: blue, black, red, yellow and green.
What were the meanings: There are several theories about the origin and interpretation of the emblem of the Olympic Games. The first and main version says that the Olympic rings symbolically depict the unity of the five continents, which was invented by Baron Pierre de Coubertin in 1913.

Until 1951, there was a belief that each color corresponded to a separate continent. Europe was designated in blue, Africa in black, America in red, Asia in yellow, green in Australia, but in 1951 they decided to move away from this distribution of colors in order to move away from racial discrimination.

Another version says that the idea of ​​five multi-colored rings is taken from Carl Jung. During the hobby period Chinese philosophy he connected the circle (a symbol of greatness and vitality) with five colors, reflecting the types of energies (water, wood, fire, earth and metal).

In 1912, the psychologist introduced a new image of the Olympic competitions, because in his opinion, each participant in the Olympic Games had to master each of the five sports - swimming (water - blue), fencing (fire - red), cross-country running (land - yellow), equestrian (wood - green) and shooting (metal - black)
The emblem of the five rings hides a deep meaning that reveals the essence of the sport. It contains the idea of ​​popularizing the Olympic movement, the equality of each participating country, fair treatment of the athlete, healthy competition.

Compasses and Square

Appearance time: Henry Wilson Coyle, in The Masonic Encyclopedia, states that the Compass and Square in weave appeared on the seal of the Aberdeen lodge in 1762.

But you should not assume that the Compasses and the Square necessarily refer you to a mathematical problem, rather they symbolize a person’s desire to achieve harmony between spiritual and physical nature.
Values: In this emblem, the Compasses depicts the vault of heaven, and the Square - the Earth. The sky is symbolically connected with the place where the Great Builder of the Universe draws his plan, and the Earth is the place where man does his work. The compass, combined with the Square, is one of the most common symbols of Freemasonry.

Values: The name "dollar" has more than just meaning. Its name contains the word ... "Joachimstaler", a 17th-century coin that was minted in the Czech city of Joachimsthal. For convenience, the name of the currency was shortened to "thaler". In Denmark, due to the peculiarities of the language, the name of the coin was pronounced as “daler”, and in the UK it was transformed from the more familiar “dollar” to us.

If everything is clear with the name, then the origin of the $ icon is still a mystery. The following version is considered the most similar to the truth: the Spanish abbreviation "P" s, which once denoted the currency of Spain, the peso. The letter P presumably left a vertical line, this allowed to increase the speed of writing, and the letter S remained unchanged. There is also a conspiracy version, along which two lines are the Pillars of Hercules.

Mars and Venus

Appearance time: The well-known sign of Mars ♂ and Venus ♀, borrowed from astrology, was introduced by the botanist Carl Linnaeus in 1751 to indicate the sex of plants. Since then, these two characters are called gender.

What values A: The first symbols of Mars and Venus appeared in antiquity. female sign Venus is depicted as a circle with a cross pointing down. It is called the "Mirror of Venus", this sign symbolizes femininity, beauty and love. The male sign of Mars is depicted as a circle with an arrow pointing up and to the right. Mars means the power of the god of war, this symbol is also called the “shield and spear of Mars.” The combined symbols of Venus and Mars mean heterosexuality, love between members of different sexes.

A couple of days ago I managed to write and publish on the Internet philosophical work "People will eventually come to what they left a long time ago!" . I ended it with a link to another article of mine. "About the scientific mafia!" , thus showing that the words of the legendary Christ: "Now is your time and the POWER OF DARKNESS" (Lk. 22:53), spoken about their murderers, are relevant today.

I started this article with these words:

"Perhaps I will surprise someone very much now, but I have to say right away that the whole antagonism, which we all observe in the human community, especially in recent times, and which we conditionally call confrontation between "good" and "evil", occurs solely because, on a planetary scale, there are and conflict two thinking systems!

Few people think about it, but it's true! And this is hidden key to the understanding and unraveling of many mysteries of nature!

One thinking system(atheists, do not twist your lips, do not rush to write me down as a sectarian and stop reading this article!) is the omnipresent and all-encompassing mind of the Creator of all things, a drop of which is present in every person from the moment of his birth. Using the word intelligence people voluntarily or involuntarily, knowingly or unknowingly, designate it, divine mind. We will talk about this mysterious ubiquitous and all-encompassing thinking system a little later, and I think that everyone will be interested to know about my view of the structure of the Universe.

In the meantime, I invite the reader to just look at one historical artifact, one might even say - a rarity - a very interesting medal, issued in Russia more than 200 years ago, which immortalized performance about this ubiquitous and all-encompassing thinking system, which for some time it is customary to designate in one short word - God.

Here is a photograph of the medal "In memory of the Patriotic War of 1812". Embossed on it symbolic image " all-seeing eye our invisible Creator, which is God and he Spirit, invisible, omnipresent, all-pervading and therefore all-seeing, cherishing everything.

I note that this medal was established not by some philosopher like me, who talks about two thinking systems, but Russian Emperor Alexander I in memory of the war of 1812 - on February 5, 1813, a decree was issued to award the participants in the liberation of the Russian land from Napoleon's invasion of the award medal "In memory of the Patriotic War of 1812".

So, this was the beginning of my previous publication, which can be read in full.

The reaction to this article from readers was very different. It was not without derogatory criticism:

Yu Li: already disrespectful Anton, what are you selling us? What is this masonic satanic eye, This "all-seeing eye" and there is the eye of OUR invisible Creator, who is God ??? "Not ours, but YOURS! I don’t know about others, well, certainly not mine! For a long time you prepared people to write this article! I read all your articles from and to ... We started for health, ended for peace.

For my part, the reaction to such words was appropriate:

Anton Blagin: obviously you didn't come here to learn something from me, and then to control me! "I read all your articles from and to ..." And so I disappointed you. Alas, I'm sorry!

As for the "Masonic satanic eye", as you wrote, is it Masonic? Maybe the swastika, after it was used by Hitler, became Nazi, and did not remain Aryan, as it always was?

I note that on the dollar bill, the Masonic eye appeared above the truncated pyramid only in 1936. And on the medal for the Patriotic War with Napoleon, the "God's eye" inside the triangle appeared 124 years earlier.

If I were offered to draw the one who sees and knows everything secret and obvious, I would probably draw exactly the same eye ("all-seeing eye"). And to be honest, I don’t care if the Masons use the same image in their work or not. Disappointed in me? Well, go in peace!

My rebuttal was followed by the following response from the same reader:

Yu Li: Anton Pavlovich, I learned a lot of new and interesting things from your articles, but your inconsistency has been very striking lately. I won’t be surprised, I won’t be surprised (!) If you write that Rusty (Chubais) is also working for the good of the country. The writer's pen will wash anyone and anything better than any detergent, you know. My intuition tells me that the True Almighty, who is alpha and omega, beginning and end, cannot be one-eyed. I don’t know how to describe it, like in that joke, I feel like a liter, but I can’t express it! Regarding all these video cameras, surveillance cameras, etc., I still have an association with the same eye. In general, this topic is endless. "And many false prophets will arise and deceive many". (Matthew 24.11), "Then if anyone says to you, Behold, the Christ is here, or there, believe not. For false Christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect."(Matthew 24:23-24). Health from the soul and clear Consciousness.

Anton Blagin: Yu Li, yesterday you succeeded in bringing me out of my state of serenity. I was very indignant (probably, like the crystal lattice of a ruby ​​laser from the flash of a pump lamp) and this gave me the opportunity to make an important discovery from indignation (naturally for myself), related to the reason for the appearance in society (including the Masons) of the symbol "all-seeing eye". As soon as I can devote time to this topic, I will definitely write a new article about it. As for "disturbers" like you who write sharply negative reviews, this is not the first time I am convinced that sometimes God himself sends them to me. So health and longevity to you!

Yu Li: yes, I wrote sharply and very negatively yesterday, sorry, of course, but you also wrote a harmless article about nature about the weather, but about the satanic symbol (I affirm and will affirm!), Which excites the minds of millions of people, and put it in a noble form ( so to speak). What should be the reaction? I could not pass by indifferently. I'm glad I inspired you, it's a pity that in this way. I look forward to new articles. I still know the truth! "Never draw conclusions about a person until you know the reasons for his actions." Archimandrite John (Krestyankin). Good luck!

While we were chatting with Yu Li in the comment thread, some lady wrote to him:

Na_Mila: You spelled correctly the symbol is satanic and there is nothing to discuss here.. After reading this article, I was speechless - from someone, but I did not expect such a focus from Blagin! He cannot be mistaken about this symbol (eyes in a triangle), I do not believe ... In general, this is strange.

Anton Blagin: why many people have such an opinion about this symbol, which was very popular in the Russian Empire several centuries ago, I understood after I read two publications on the Internet: "Masonic eye. The secret government is no longer a myth" , .

The first of these publications begins with the words: "Masonic symbolism is all over the world. The "All-Seeing Eye" is somehow present in our lives, and I'm going to prove it..."

Well what can I say about all this?

First, it has been confirmed once again that "the sleep of reason produces monsters!".

Second: Masons as a secret society always was, is, and probably always will be. You can read about their goals and their organization.

Third: knowledge of nature, like nature itself (!), cannot belong to someone personally or to any separate organization, even if it is a mafia. Knowledge of nature is common heritage! And because the guardians of this knowledge about nature (concealers) at some point in time turned out to be Freemasons, representatives of a secret organization, which always included only those in power, and homosexuals, does not mean anything!

If someone has a violent fantasy, watch an old Soviet cartoon "Stolen Sun"- right on topic and even with a hint of a conspiracy theory about "reptilians"!

In this tale the sun was stolen green crocodile!

Now let's talk about something serious and in an adult way, like educated people!

Symbols are indeed "satanic"! They are deliberately invented and filled with a negative meaning by representatives of the same secret organizations that today create more and more new "viruses", "trojans", and other man-made means of wrecking the human race for computers.

I will not cite here any of the well-known satanic symbols, so as not to fill my article with negative energy. But I will say that in addition to evil, which always strives to destroy everything and everything, there is also creative good in the Universe! And there are symbols that reflect our positive reality or describe some real technical device or display the contents of some process.

For clarity, I will give symbolic image of a radio tube, which is still used in the radio-electronic industry, as well as photographic image of a radio tube to make it clear what I'm talking about.

On the left is a graphic image of a triode lamp, on the right is its photograph, showing its real appearance.

As we can see, the symbolic image has almost nothing to do with the real one. appearance radio tubes, but it is the symbolic image that reveals to us its inner essence!

And what information (inner essence) does the symbolic image of God, known as the "eye in the triangle" or the "all-seeing eye" tell us (reveal)?

I have no doubt that people who understand the schematic representations of radio tubes and can distinguish "triode" from "pentode", perhaps in Russia, and in the world as a whole, are only 3-5%!

What can we say about people who really know what information the symbol "eye in a triangle" is fraught with?!

I hope that after the publication of my article, there will be many such people!

I note that the craze of the Russian "elite" for this symbolism began only two and a half or three centuries ago, and it happened the same way as it happens with fashion - if jeans suddenly appeared, then suddenly everyone wanted to buy them at once! If some fashion designer sewed a beautiful hat, then thousands of people suddenly wanted to get the same hat!

With the symbol "eye in a triangle" happened a little differently than with fashion, but almost like that. The Russian elite was carried away by this symbol solely because at some point it was initiated into secret knowledge about the hidden forces of nature. Let me clarify: there was an initiation of the Russian elite: the emperor and his family, as well as the highest ranks of the Russian Orthodox Church, into some kind of top-secret secret knowledge, which in ancient times was supposed to be owned only by the specially elected, who considered themselves not just an elite, but chosen by God!

In ancient Egypt, which flourished several millennia BC, such elected people were, as you know, the pharaoh and the priests. They owned this top-secret secret knowledge about the hidden forces of nature by virtue of his position.

I note that they also once had a kind of fashion - fashion for the construction of stone pyramids! Why? You'll understand later.

Now I want to draw your attention to the fact that in the symbolism, which was widely replicated in the Russian Empire a couple of centuries ago, "eye triangle"- this is not just some kind of triangle, this is a symbolic image pyramids!

The Masonic design that appeared on the dollar bill in 1936 leaves no doubt that this "triangle with an eye" is an image of a pyramid.

The last photo taken inside the Kazan Church in St. Petersburg shows an image pyramids with an inscription "GOD" and emanating from the center of the pyramid "Holy Spirit".

And the fashion for this symbolism with God in the pyramid appeared in Russia exactly after the elite of Europe and England became interested in the heritage of Ancient Egypt - the same pyramids, composed by him of many stones.



Interest in the pyramids and the heritage of Ancient Egypt was at that time so great among the European elite that Napoleon Bonaparte, Emperor of France, even decided to conquer this country by force. For this, a well-armed army was equipped, and in 1798-1801 the famous Napoleonic campaign took place, which ended very unsuccessfully for the French. All that Napoleon achieved then was positive for France - his expedition collected and exported to Europe a huge number of historical monuments, and in 1798 the Institute of Egypt (Institut d "Égypte) was created, which marked the beginning of a large-scale plunder of the heritage of Ancient Egypt.

Napoleon later wrote about Egypt in his memoirs: "Egypt is one of the most beautiful and fertile countries in the world. It is the cradle of sciences and arts. There were the largest and most ancient monuments created by human hands".

The largest and most ancient monuments of Egypt are, of course, the pyramids, huge stone structures.

I note that regarding their appointment, all official media are still spreading only misinformation or half-truths, which is also a lie, because no one from the highest echelon of the "world elite" wants secret knowledge, which has always been only the property of VIPs, to become available to someone else.

In this regard, I want to remind the reader about the famous letter of the famous commander Alexander the Great to his teacher Aristotle. This letter captures the moment very well:

"Alexander to Arstotle wishes well! You did wrong by promulgating teachings intended only for oral teaching. How will we differ from other people if the very teachings on which we were brought up become common property? I would like to SUPERIOR OTHERS not so much power, as much as KNOWLEDGE about higher subjects. Be healthy."(Plutarch. Selected Biographies. Vol. 2, p. 367).

Macedonsky wrote this letter to Aristotle when he learned that his teacher had written a manuscript expounding secret knowledge. Macedonsky was ambitious and young, and he did not want anyone else besides him to gain the secret knowledge of the greatest rulers from the priest through the book he had written. That is the only reason why he reprimanded Aristotle in writing: “You have done wrong by publishing a teaching intended only for oral teaching”.

Now is the time to recall the well-known historical fact that the teacher Aristotle, in turn, studied with the ancient Egyptian priests. And the ancient Egyptian priests, according to Diogenes Laertes, who lived around the 2nd - 3rd century AD, kept knowledge that goes back 49 thousand years to Alexander the Great.

And so, following the logic of this story, we ran into ancient egyptian pyramids, into a symbol of supreme power in the form "eyes in a triangle" and in idea of ​​the existence of secret knowledge, the possession of which gives the specially chosen a gigantic advantage over others and the right to power.

Although we still managed to reveal one secret, and there is no doubt that the symbol of power in the form of an "eye in a triangle" is directly connected with the pyramids and, accordingly, with some kind of secret knowledge that the ancient Egyptian pyramids store.

In connection with our discovery we can count "pimples" on the medal inside the "triangle with an eye" is nothing more than a symbolic image stones, from which the pyramids were built in Egypt in other countries of the world, in China, for example. An attempt to present these "pimples" as crocodile "reptilian skin" nothing more than an attempt misinformation humanity "interested persons"!

It is also symbolic that this "eye in triangle" adorns the medal issued in the Russian Empire in honor of the expulsion by the Russian people from the Russian land of the commander Napoleon and his huge army who tried 14 years earlier conquer Egypt.

Given the fact that the war with Napoleon and his army was nationwide, initiated by God himself, who does not leave Russia without his guardianship, the Russian Emperor Alexander I ordered that the commemorative medal should contain words of thanksgiving to the Almighty: "NOT TO US, NOT TO US, BUT TO YOUR NAME!"

This is where the same symbolism comes from in subsequent state medals issued in the Russian Empire. Pay close attention to the symbolism of this medal (coming from inside the "pyramid with an eye" Light that is "Holy Spirit", falls on the royal crown and on the crowns of the two-headed eagle - a symbol of Russian power) and on the inscription on it: "For the pacification of Hungary and Transylvania. 1849. Understand, Gentiles, and submit. God is with us" . ("Understand, peoples, and submit. God is with us").

Well, now I want to show how the truth about the pyramids is disguised and how the secret knowledge associated with them is hidden from the people, including in our time.

If you open Wikipedia or some other encyclopedia, you can read the following there:

"Word "pyramid"- Greek means polyhedron. According to some researchers, a large pile of wheat became the prototype of the pyramid. According to other scientists, this word comes from the name of the funeral cake of a pyramidal shape. A total of 118 pyramids have been discovered in Egypt."

At the same time, it is known that Greek have a word "πυρ" ("feast"), which begins the two-root word "pyramid" . Translated into Russian, the word "πυρ" ("feast") means "fire".

Don't you think that the two-root word "polyhedron", which is slipped to us by academic dictionaries and encyclopedias as a translation of the Greek two-root word "pyramid" somehow doesn't fit anymore?

And if "feast" this is "fire", then "the second root "mid" in the word "pyramid", what can it mean?

In most languages ​​of the world "mid", "middle", "medium" means the middle, the middle part of something, equally spaced from the border, edges, or from the beginning and end of something.

Thus, we have every reason to translate the word "pyramid" How "fire in the middle" .

And to understand how "fire in the middle" associated with the symbol "eye in triangle" , read my earlier article that I wrote back in 2013:

"ANCIENT EGYPT - THE SOURCE OF THE GREATEST INTELLIGENCE AND THE GREATEST EVIL"

This is an ancient geometry textbook found in Thebes, the largest city of Ancient Egypt.

Nearly 4,000 years ago, it was copied by a scribe named Ahmes onto a 32 cm high and 199.5 cm wide papyrus scroll from an even older source.

This papyrus was discovered in 1858 and is often referred to as the Rhinda papyrus after its first owner.

In 1887 this papyrus was deciphered, translated and published by G. Robinson and K. Schute (London, The British Museum Press, 1987).

Most of this old manuscript is now in the British Museum in London, and the second part is in New York.

This is one of the two-meter-long pages of the Ahmes papyrus. Historians attribute the time of writing this "manual of arithmetic and geometry" to the period of the XII dynasty of the Middle Kingdom (1985 - 1795 BC).

As you can see, at a time when many peoples of the planet had only a spoken language, and writing was still in its infancy, exact sciences already existed in Ancient Egypt!

Ancient Egypt gained special fame thanks to the city of Alexandria, which had a large scientific library. It is known that it was founded at the beginning of the 3rd century BC during the reign of the king of Egypt, Ptolemy II Philadelphus. This library was the largest in the ancient world and was more of an academy than an ordinary collection of books! Scientists lived and worked in it, engaged in both research and teaching.

Even if these figures are greatly exaggerated by the chroniclers, this does not detract from the very fact that Ancient Egypt was the center of world scientific thought.

Another important detail is curious - in ancient Egypt there were three types of writing - hieroglyphic, folk language (demotic) and cursive!

Unfortunately, almost all ancient manuscripts were destroyed by vandals. Only rare evidence of the once former power of the ancient human genius has survived to this day.

So, that was the bright side of ancient Egyptian history. Now let's look at her dark side.

Look at this scroll, very similar to an ancient Egyptian geometry textbook.

This holy book Jewish people - "Torah", about which the Jews say: "The Torah is the law and, at the same time, it is a guide to life, received by Moses on Mount Sinai from the hands of God himself".

Here is an explanation from a modern preacher of Judaism who popularly explains to Jews what the Torah is.

"What is Torah? The written Torah (Torah shebihtav) is the five books of Moshe [Moses]. In any synagogue, Torah scrolls are kept - exact copies of the first scroll received by Moshe on Mount Sinai. In a sense, the Written Torah is the constitution of the Jewish people, but proclaimed not by people, but by God.

Oral Torah (Torah shebealpe), "which Moses received at Sinai and handed over to Yegh'oshua (read Yehoshua), Yegh'hoshua to the elders, the elders to the prophets, and the prophets to the men of the Great Assembly..." (Avot. 1:1 ), - explains Written. It contains " general rules, according to which the sages can find right decisions constantly arising questions, based on what is said in the scripture briefly and in a hint ”(Rabbe Joseph Albo). For example, the Torah forbids working on the Sabbath. But what is work in relation to the Sabbath? With the exception of a few references to activities such as collecting firewood, lighting a fire, cooking, the Written Torah does not go into detail.

The answer is in the Oral Torah. In the book of Dvarim (12:21) it is said: "... Slaughter (animals) from your herds and small livestock ... as I commanded you ..." But in the entire Pentateuch one cannot find instructions on how this should be done. The written Torah commands: "...And bind them (tefillin) as a sign on your hand, and they will be signs over your eyes..." (Shemot. 13:16). But how and from what to make tefillin, Scripture does not explain.

The written Torah prescribes death penalty for some crimes. What legal standards and procedures must be followed before a death sentence is passed, what are the restrictions?

All these questions are answered by the Oral Torah. Eventually the Oral Torah was written down. First, the Mishnah was written down, then the Gmara, the purpose of which is an in-depth commentary on the Mishnah. The Mishnah and the Gmara together make up the Talmud.

Torah Written and Oral are a guide to life. Although the Torah is addressed primarily to the Jewish people, it contains instructions for all mankind. It covers every aspect of human existence..

The rules governing the ritual side of religion are only part of the whole complex of commandments. Torah laws cover the entire spectrum of individual and social behavior. It makes its judgment on such aspects of a person's life, which in other religions are usually considered to be related to the sphere of ethics and morality, or fall under the articles of civil and criminal codes. Even in those parts of the Torah that are not directly related to law and law, spiritual ideals are constantly proclaimed and the subtleties of ethical and moral norms are explained.

The Torah (in the broad sense) includes, in addition, the books of the Prophets (Neviim) and writings (Ketuvim). They contain the teachings of the Prophets and record the history of the peoples of Israel over a period of seven centuries. They tell about the Divine revelation, which the Prophets were honored with, about their continuous struggle for the true faith against numerous false prophets * (which, for example, according to the Levites were Isaiah and Jesus Christ - comment A.B.), who tried to convince Jewish people deviate from the path indicated by the Almighty.

The inspired Psalms included in these books reflect the deepest religious experiences of man.

The five books of the Torah and the nineteen books of Neviim and Ketuvim are collectively called the Tanakh (an abbreviation of the words Torah, Neviim, Ketuvim).

However, the study of the Torah is not limited to studying Holy Scripture and the Talmud, but also includes an acquaintance with the entire heritage of sages and rabbis accumulated over the centuries. Of course, the Torah itself provides that authoritative Jewish scholars will extract more and more grains of wisdom from it, develop and increase our heritage: “And do according to the word that they tell you ... And do everything exactly as they tell you. ..according to the law that they teach you, and according to the judgment that they pronounce, walk ... ”(Deut. 17:10,11). The Torah is the embodiment of the Jewish faith. It contains the conditions of union with the Almighty. She makes a Jew - a Jew» . (Chaim Donin, "Being a Jew").

What the Torah teaches the Jews, we can learn from the Bible.

In this "textbook of Christians" its compilers considered it necessary to include a large fragment of the Jewish Torah, of which Rabbi Chaim Donin says that "The written Torah (Torah shebihtav) is the five books of Moses" .

For example, here are some of the laws by which the Jews must be guided to this day.

For what crimes does the Torah threaten Jews with death?

I will give just one example, but the most interesting and important evidence: “He who denies the law of Moses, with two or three witnesses, without mercy [is punished] by death” (Bible. To the Jews, 10: 28).

Don't you think, friends, what's under the guise world religion, which is called Judaism, we have some mafia sect?!

Go, kill, exterminate! - say "God-given laws." And if you do not want to embark on a criminal path, they will kill you without mercy!

The Jewish religion is wonderful, isn't it?!

known to be terrible jewish mafia appeared on our planet about three and a half thousand years ago, and this historical event It turned out to be connected with the exit of a certain tribe (genus) from Ancient Egypt.

The Exodus of the Jews from Ancient Egypt was recorded in religious history with one remarkable phrase: “And he brought out [the Israelites] with silver and gold, and there was no sick person in their tribes. Egypt rejoiced at their departure; for fear came upon him from them." . (Bible. Psalm 104: 37-38).

Obviously, the ancient Egyptians had reason to be afraid of the Israelites. Some of their laws are worth something!

Let's take another look at the bright side of ancient Egyptian history.

Mathematics, geometry and perfect writing - this is not all that ancient scientists owned, for whom Ancient Egypt was the center of world science.

In those distant times, the question that worries most people today did not represent any secret for scientists - about the origin of life on earth.

Ancient Egyptians were literally convinced that life-giving and creative force the universe is invisible luminous spirit of nature.

Their conviction was based on the knowledge that the invisible life-giving force of the Universe has the property to concentrate (intensify) in stone structures of a certain geometric shape. Including the pyramids. The proof is in the word itself. "pyramid" which means - "fire in the middle".

Pyro- translated from other Greek. πῦρ - fire, root mid- in most languages ​​of the world means middle, middle.

By the way, some modern scientists are also convinced of this, who risked experimentally testing the idea of ​​distant ancestors that pyramids concentrate some energy inside themselves, "fire in the middle".

Relatively recently, Russian engineer Alexander Efimovich Golod received permission from the competent authorities of the Russian Federation to build a small 44-meter pyramid in the suburbs. He erected it without a single nail on the 38th kilometer of the Novorizhskoye highway.

Even this model showed some unusual phenomena. For example, water during the experiment in the Hunger pyramid did not freeze, even if the air temperature dropped to -20 degrees Celsius! However, it was enough to sharply hit the container with water aged in the cold, so that it turned into ice in a matter of seconds!

So, did the ancients possess some kind of sacred knowledge about the essence of Nature, which today is inaccessible to modern science?!

And it means that the word "pyramid" means "fire inside" for a reason?!

The proof, after all, is right there!

In addition, the described experience can always be double-checked!

Not anymore "Holy Spirit" concentrated inside the pyramids, about which there is so much talk in Christianity?!

Judging by this photo taken inside the Kazan Church in St. Petersburg, yes, He is the one! And so that no one doubts this, right on the image pyramids surrounded by symbolic radiance invisible "Holy Spirit" written in capital letters: "GOD"!

Now let's look again at the dark side of ancient Egyptian history.

What is useful brought for themselves from ancient Egyptian science priests of Judaism other than silver and gold?

When, after the Exodus from Ancient Egypt, they created a religion for the Jews, they included in it the sacred knowledge that they learned from the scientists who built the pyramids. Only they perverted it in a monstrous way!

The Jews gave the Jews an idea of ​​God! But what!

They portrayed him as some very evil force, with which, however, you can always negotiate if you appease it, they explained to the Jews. Here is the description of the God of the Jews, which is in the Torah: “God is a zealot who punishes children for the guilt of the fathers to the third and fourth generation”(Deut. 5:9).

Fire, namely fire, became in the religion of the Jews manifestation God's power, his spirit, similar to the breath of a fabulous fire-breathing dragon.

Because the Jewish-created religion was based on the principle "You - to us, we - to you", then its most important component was the ritual offering sacrifice to God. And the victims were supposed to be sure to burn.

This pleases God! - said the priests of Judaism to the Jews.

The food of the fire is an offering to the Lord.

The smell of burnt meat is a fragrance for God!

I can illustrate what has been said with excerpts from that part of the Torah that turned out to be included in the Bible. Quoting Leviticus chapter 9:

Fire became for Jews including the important means of punishment tribesmen who violated this or that religious law. It turned out that it was as if the Lord himself was punishing them with his fire.

Here are two examples. "If anyone takes a wife and her mother, this is iniquity; on fire must burn him and them so that there is no iniquity between you"(Bible. Lev. 20:14). “If the daughter of a priest defiles herself with fornication, then she dishonors her father; fire must burn it" (Bible. Lev. 21: 9).

I think that now many will be very surprised when they find out what this is ritual sacrifice or like this Jews punished for their sins has been HOLOCAUST (burnt offering), from English. holocaust, from other Greek. ὁλοκαύστος - " burnt offering».

This topic is discussed in more detail in a separate work. "THE MOST EFFECTIVE FIGHT OF GOOD WITH EVIL IS THE FIGHT FOR THE MATERIALISTIC WORLD VIEW!".

The symbol "All-seeing eye" refers to the most ancient signs. In one form or another, it was used in the religions of many peoples. An eye in a triangle, depicted in various subjects for sacred rites, archaeologists still find in different parts of the world. What was the meaning of the Eye of God amulet in ancient times, why is it called " Masonic sign”and how they use it now, we suggest you find out below.

There is a theory that the sign of the Eye of God appeared more than 6 thousand years ago. Symbol in different religions shown in two versions:

  1. Drawing of the divine eye inside an equilateral triangle. Rays diverge from the triangle itself. This option belongs Egyptian culture, is called the "Eye of Horus".
  2. The eye is not shown inside the figure, but at the top of the triangle.

The symbol is found on various objects that have come down to us from antiquity.

According to some sources, the ancient symbol of the eyes in a triangle protects a person from evil in the form of mental and physical illness. He also has the power to heal.

Other sources claim that the amulet promotes the development of the art of clairvoyance, contributes to the disclosure of lies, and attracts positive energy. The sign also helps to know the inner world, determine one's destiny, be firm and not deviate from the decisions made.

In Egyptian culture

Eye of Horus with an eyebrow.

In Egyptian culture, the sign was the designation of the powerful god Horus. The legends said that Horus had extraordinary eyes: the left one is the Moon, and the right eye is the Sun. He watched round the clock what was happening among the people of the whole earth, and nothing could escape his piercing gaze.

In Buddhism

In Buddhism, there was also a hieroglyph similar to the Egyptian sign of the Eye of Horus. The meaning of this image was reduced to wisdom and true knowledge. The person who wore the amulet with the image of the sign could open the way to the truth.

Also in Buddhism there is a legend that says: "Who owns the amulet of the Eye can look into the future."

The phrase "Third Eye" comes from Buddhism. Its meaning"to open the possibility of seeing the truth».

In the countries of the East

Among the Eastern peoples, the designation of the symbol of the Eye of Horus is similar to the Egyptian one: the image of the conjunction of the Sun and the Moon. The sun star observed people in the daylight, and the moon at night.

In ancient Greece

The ancient Greeks also used the symbol of the All-Seeing Eye. In their religion, he acquired the meaning of the union of Zeus and Apollo. An amulet with an image similar to the Eye of Horus gave its owner the ability to true knowledge, opened his soul for divine insight. In addition to this, it was believed that the amulet drives away evil spirits with its light.

The peoples of North America

The Indians, who in ancient times lived on the lands of America, also had a magical hieroglyph similar to the Egyptian Eye of Horus. In their culture, the sign embodied the Eye of the Great Spirit. They sincerely believed that through the image of the eye, the Spirit was watching them.

According to some theories, the Americans liked the meaning of the ancient symbol so much that they began to depict it on a dollar bill in order to attract the patronage of Horus and receive his blessing for the development of the country.

The image of the magic sign is still printed on the dollar. It is interesting that later this idea was adopted by the Ukrainians - the drawing of an eye in a triangle, outlined by a circle, is found on a banknote with a face value of 500 hryvnias.

Americans believe - the sign came from the Masons, has magical power, denotes wisdom.

Historical reference. The Masonic movement was organized by ordinary construction workers. Their drawing looked like this: a triangle with an eye inside, next to it is the image of a construction trowel, and in the corners at the top of the sign are the sun and moon.

This is the mind, and insight, and the possibility of studying, and at the same time - limited perception. And what does the eye in the triangle mean, which can now be found on buildings, banknotes and the human body? Let's figure it out.

Different understanding of the symbol "eye in a triangle"

Today it is generally accepted that this is a Masonic sign. It is found everywhere. Most of the conspiracy theories arose because of its presence on the dollar bill. However, this is misleading. The eye in the triangle was known to different nations. He was painted in the West and in Eastern countries. The meaning was (and still is) about the same. The Indians, for example, so denoted the Great Spirit, who monitors the behavior of people. In Buddhism, the eye was considered a symbol of wisdom. He was also identified with the light of knowledge. By the way, this is where the term “third eye” comes from. This is inner vision, capable of recognizing the subtle world. However, the West and the East, so to speak, mirrored this symbol. People associated the left and right eye with night and day, past and future. In the West, the right eye has become a symbol of the Sun, the left - the Moon. In the East they were interpreted exactly the opposite.


Egyptian philosophy

It is generally accepted that the eye in the triangle is one of the symbols of the ancient world. More specifically, he came to us from Egypt. This great civilization created a vast, multi-level belief system. Their eye was considered an attribute of the Great Horus. It was a powerful and formidable god. It is impossible to hide from him, the Egyptians believed. He sees and knows everything, but he does not need reasons for anger. He is always ready to punish sinners. In addition, this symbol was associated with insight, enlightenment of the soul.


If an eyebrow was attached to the eye, then the meaning changed. They saw in him the power and strength of Horus. By the way, in those days, not everyone was allowed to wear it on the body. After all, the picture itself was considered holy. The priests used it as a talisman against evil forces. Today in museums there are ceramic products, frescoes with such a picture. These are household items of the priestly caste and the nobility of Ancient Egypt. Ordinary people were not allowed to reproduce it in their homes. Maybe the popularity of this combination is connected with this ban? A triangle with an eye, as some people believe, has magical properties. Although in our time it may be associated with more mundane things. For example, with the popularity of the world currency - the dollar. It is in the minds of people associated with this Masonic symbol.

Why in a triangle?

If everything is more or less clear with the eye, then it should be explained where the geometric figure formed by three planes appeared in this combination. This is a rather difficult question. There is a theory according to which the triangle symbolizes the Holy Trinity. By the way, such an image is found on Christian and Catholic icons. The clergy explain that the triangle with the eye denotes together the Almighty. He is in heaven, but it is impossible to hide from his attention. The Lord sees the deeds of all believers, evaluates and controls their thoughts and feelings. Everyone will be rewarded according to their merits on the day of the Great Judgment.

Triangle eye tattoo

The deep meaning of this symbol is known to many people. The picture is now often used for tattoos. Some are attracted by the smack of the mystery of the Masonic sign, others sincerely consider it magical. People believe that such a tattoo can protect them from evil. Perhaps this is so, given the effect of self-hypnosis. This tattoo is more popular with males. Most often it is applied to the neck or biceps. Pictures are bright and colorful. Girls are also attracted to the mystical symbol. They prefer to get a small tattoo on their wrist or lower back. It is believed that it protects from the curse, promotes the realization of creative abilities and talents. Although if you do not work, then no picture on the skin will help.

Studying the topic: “The Eye in the Triangle: Meaning and Meaning”, you will inevitably come across some oddities. The fact is that this image was considered sacred. His "magic" was cherished and strictly guarded. Freemasons and other "masters" of mankind are not particularly inclined to share their secrets. So why did this element appear on banknotes? After all, it is clear that in this way it was made public property, even planetary. For what purpose was this done? The mistake of conceptual overlords? Or does the introduction of a sacred element into everyday life have a deeper meaning? This issue is not up for discussion. However, there is something to think about here. Is it not the desire to subdue humanity that is behind such actions, as conspiracy theorists believe? Or maybe somewhere a new conceptual theory has already matured, and they just get rid of the old one, debunking it?

What's with the weird eye in the triangle? What does the eye in the triangle mean? Is it a cult?

The Eye in the Triangle or the All-Seeing Eye.
The occult sign "eye in a triangle" (or "All-seeing eye", or "shining delta") is considered a symbol of God. He traces his origin from ancient times. Perhaps the tradition of depicting a deity in this way originates in ancient Egypt. In this state, the religious sign "the falcon's eye of Horus" was often used.
In ancient India, there was a similar symbol - the "third eye of Shiva".
The triangle has also been considered a magical sign since ancient times. In the early Christian era, it was used by the Gnostics as a symbol of the trinity. The philosophers of the Renaissance were the first to inscribe the eye into the triangle. Since then, it has become a symbol of God the Father. In Western Christian iconography, an eye in a triangle is quite common. Starting from the 17th century, it also appears on our Orthodox icons. It was especially popular to depict him in the 18th-19th centuries. During this period, it is often used in the design of both religious buildings and objects, as well as secular ones.
However, most eyes in the triangle are familiar primarily not as pagan or christian sign, but as the main symbol of the Masonic lodge. This organization arose in the 16th century from the delinquent and excommunicated order of the Templars. It includes exclusively wealthy and influential representatives of society. This lodge is secret, the goals of its creation are vague, and therefore there are many rumors and legends around it.
It is believed, for example, that this organization has been pursuing a targeted policy for the establishment of its own world domination for several centuries in a row. Allegedly, a special program was developed in this society, the points of which were both world wars and other similar global events on the planet. According to another version, the Freemasons, who have chosen the eye in a triangle as their symbol, want, by uniting, simply to change the world for the better.

What does the eye pyramid mean?

Semyon Semyonovich Gorbunkov

The image of a pyramid with an eye is found in two versions. The classic Egyptian version is simply a pyramid with an eye on one side. But the second version became more famous, in which its top hangs over the truncated pyramid, on which the eye is located. In this scheme, you can see a deep symbolic meaning: the top is separated from the base, it is on it that the all-seeing eye is present. A small upper part dominates the whole - it is this idea that dominates this image.

The symbolism of the pyramid with the eye is understandable, but where did this symbol come from and why does it still exist today? Most often, this symbol is associated with the Masons, the sign of the all-seeing eye enclosed in a triangle is known to them as "Radiant Delta". It is believed that the Freemasons borrowed this symbol from Christianity, where the triangle means the Trinity, and the eye is the all-seeing eye of providence. But this symbol was found even before the Christians, it was known in Egypt as the "Eye of Horus" (Horus, Ra). Nevertheless, despite the change of cultures, the symbolism of the sign as an all-seeing divine eye remains unchanged.

It would be easiest to consider the presence of an eye in a triangle on the same US one-dollar bill as a symbol of the Freemasons, but in reality everything turns out to be more complicated. There is an obvious difference between the "Radiant Delta" - the eye in the triangle - and the all-seeing eye above the truncated pyramid. That is why the second sign is often associated with one of the most mysterious and mysterious organizations - the Order of the Illuminati. Its members refer to the eye in the triangle as the Gnostic Eye of Lucifer, or the All-Knowing Eye. The symbol itself is directly associated with the World Government - a group of people with great power who secretly rule the world and determine the path of its development. Confirmation of this option can be found in the image of the pyramid on the US one dollar bill. At its base you can see the inscription MDCCLXXVI, which in Roman writing means 1776. It was in this year that the Order of the Illuminati was founded (this is also the year of recognition of US independence).

An interesting symbolism has the number of levels of the pyramid. There are exactly 13 layers to the cut top, which symbolizes 13 times 13 years. This is 169 years, that is how long the Illuminati were preparing to seize power - from 1776 to 1945. This is followed by a gap between the truncated pyramid and its raised top, it is called the "Second Era". This is 26 years, or two times 13. The beginning of the era is 1945, the end is 1975. Finally, the raised top of the pyramid with the eye depicted on it is called the “Third Era” and lasts 39 years, or three times 13. Its end is 2010 year. After this date, the power of the Illuminati becomes comprehensive, no one in the world is no longer able to challenge the New World Order they are establishing. It is this phrase - Novus ordo seclorum - printed under the pyramid on the same US one-dollar bill.

This is the sign of the Illuminati. The Illuminati are those who opposed the teachings of the Church. At the bottom it says: The New Secular Order. Secular means non-religious. New non-religious order. Masons have long disappeared, in their place came the Illuminati who hate Religion. I think they exist...

Dmitry serga

Everyone says that this is a Masonic sign (I personally do not reject this), but I also saw it on Christian icons, and if we judge that Christianity appeared before Freemasonry, then most likely either the Freemasons took this sign of Christianity or these are completely different signs.

Yuri Sumkin

In fact, everything is simple. This image is a symbol of the mountain civilization of the Sumerians RUS from the mountains of the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific, where the Sumerians, who managed to escape from the Universal Flood 12.5 thousand years ago, were farmers. And at the bottom of the planet the Armageddon of the Universal FLOOD was buzzing. The only source of clean water was the snowy mountains that melted from the sun, and mountain streams and springs supplied the settlements and farmers with clean water. This was the most important thing, because Pure Water is the symbol of Rus'. RUSS, KUS, KUL - the same words meaning an eye with a tear, a mountain lake, a source of clean water. The pyramid is a symbol of the mountains, the part raised above the eye is snow and ice peaks, and the eye itself with a tear is pure water, that's the whole meaning of this symbol. the name Rus' just comes from here, from an eye with a tear. These words are still in use in the Old Russian language of modern Sumerians.

If such miraculously orderly laws, hitherto hidden from the human eye, have been discovered thanks to immersion in the formation of numbers, is there not a reasonable hope that all the secrets of the universe will soon be revealed through numerical ratios?
