EGG MEN

[iameye]

I have found too many occult/Crowley connections to ignore as part and parcel of this story.

Skimming thru all things Crowley lately brings forth interesting data. Briefely, AC's life's pursuit was to "find the egg" spoken to him through what I imagine to be an alien encounter of some sort - with the being LAM who also gave him a code to solve he couldn't or didn't admit be able to solve ( the mathematical value of words, to my understanding which is minimal). The depiction of LAM is as a grey alien as we generally have heard of. AC thought LAM to be possibly a liason between worlds, ours and Satans or some dimention.

"The portrait of (Lam) which is reproduced in The Magical Revival may be used as the visual focus, and can serve as the Yantra of the Cult; the name Lam is the Mantra; and the Tantra is the union with the dikpala by entering the Egg of Spirit represented by the Head. Entry may be affected by projecting consciousness through the eyes..."

And elsewhere, in a section titled The Magical Procedure:

The Mode of Entering the Egg may proceed as follows. Each votary is encouraged to experiment and evolve his own method from the basic procedure:

1) Sit in silence before the portrait.
2) Invoke mentally my silent repetition the Name.
3) If response is felt to be positive...enter the Egg and merge with That which is within, and look out through the entity's eyes on what appears now to the votary an alien world.
4) Seal the Egg, i.e., close the eyes of Lam and await developments." www.excludedmiddle.com/LAMstatement.html

This brings up the "I am the Eggman" lyric.........was John channeling music as a liason btwn worlds also?

“They [The Beatles] were like mediums. They weren’t conscious of all they were saying, but it was coming through them” (YOKO ONO, The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Berkeley, 1982, p. 106.).

“[Of his music JOHN LENNON said] “It’s like being possessed: like a psychic or a medium” (The Playboy Interviews, p. 203).

This is the video from Back to the Egg - CLOSER www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLLKLtMGLtY The sound is terrible, it's overdubbed w/ fake applause. Does anyone have a clean version? Are we watching some sort of ritual or re-enactment?

PT 2 of the sequence can be seen at the end of this video "Goodnight Tonight" www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZVebyVODhU

Clearly the fieplace is some sort of alter or shrine with the two bright lights, the wings of (a falcon/Horus?) Note that when the band leaves, they all approach the "alter" and bow in unison, very odd, a homage?.....does anyone know what the figure on the top of the mantle is?

Interesting topic.

It COULD be that the Beatles became "mediums" post 1966. In searching something in their lives to heal after the tragic loss of JPM, they may have become part of something occultic.

I don't think they were that way from the beginning, as some alluded to. But perhaps they became involved or perhaps were forced into following this type of ritual, perhaps trying to contact JPM.

So they became "eggmen".... They sure seemed eerie in MMT in the way the music and imagery wove together a peculiar tapestry. Now knowing about PID and the clues, it's not so mysterious, but peculiar....
