RE: Part One: Bloodlines Of The Serpent Gods & The Rise Of The Black Nobility
Incredible stuff!
Even in our part of the world, Indian Himalaya that is, we've serpent gods and goddesses.
According to famous author O.C. Handa, "O. C. Handa CULT OF GUGA IN THE HILLS AREAS OF HIMACHAL PRADESH Introduction Guga, the serpent-god, is revered throughout the hills of Western Himalayan region, especially for the occult safety against snake-bite. Image of Guga Rana, as he is popularly known, is enshrined in almost every village."
In Himalayan villages of (Kullu, Mandi, Kinnaur Districts of Himachal Pradesh) we have temples dedicated to serpent Gods. There are Serpent Goddesses who've been acting as the theocratic Gods of erstwhile Kingdoms and some of them even act as the presiding deities of District Festivals (Agrarian Festivals which are celebrated across the state)
In my hometown, there are two Festivals (one of them is the Famous International Shivratri Festival and the second one is National Level Festival) the presiding detieis are both serpent Gods.
Kamru Nag as the presiding deity of Shivratri Fair (Naga : a hindi word for serpent)
Mahu Nag as the presiding deity of Sundernagar Nalwar Festival
Thank you for the excellent comment and support my friend .. I very much appreciate it! It's amazing how far and wide this concept has spread! Indeed there appears to be a very similar thread that that has woven itself throughout history and country! There are many wisdoms and truths within the vedic writings and these are also found within several aspects of hermeticism. It's really fascinating stuff and once you start to look into it the rabbit hole becomes deeper and deeper! Thanks for the extra information @goel.tarun I really enjoyed reading it.
Thanks for your comment. I too would like to write about this series, particularly about the Serpentine t gods of my Himalayan State.
