Jezidi - tisuću zašto :D

[pavaogc]

The Yazidi (also Yezidi, Kurdish: ئێزیدی or Êzidî) are members of a Kurdish religion with ancient Indo-European roots. They are primarily a Kurdish-speaking people living in the Mosul region of northern Iraq, with additional communities in Transcaucasia, Armenia, Turkey, and Syria in decline since the 1990s - their members emigrating to Europe, especially to Germany.[12] Their religion, Yazidism, is a branch of Yazdânism, and is seen as a highly syncretic complex of local Kurdish beliefs and Islamic Sufi doctrine introduced to the area by Sheikh Adi ibn Musafir in the 12th century. The Yazidi believe in God as creator of the world, which he placed under the care of seven holy beings or angels, the chief of whom is Melek Taus, the Peacock Angel.

(...)

The religion of the Yazidis is a highly syncretic one: Sufi influence and imagery can be seen in their religious vocabulary, especially in the terminology of their esoteric literature, but much of the mythology is non-Islamic. Their cosmogonies apparently have many points in common with those of ancient Persian religions. Early writers attempted to describe Yazidi origins, broadly speaking, in terms of Islam, or Persian, or sometimes even pagan religions; however, publications since the 1990s have shown such an approach to be overly simplistic.

Tawûsê Melek is often identified by Muslims and Christians with Shaitan (Satan). Yazidis, however, believe Tawûsê Melek is not a source of evil or wickedness. They consider him to be the leader of the archangels, not a fallen angel. They also hold that the source of evil is in the heart and spirit of humans themselves, not in Tawûsê Melek. The active forces in their religion are Tawûsê Melek and Sheik Adî.

The Kitêba Cilwe "Book of Illumination", which claims to be the words of Tawûsê Melek, and which presumably represents Yazidi belief, states that he allocates responsibilities, blessings and misfortunes as he sees fit and that it is not for the race of Adam to question him. Sheikh Adî believed that the spirit of Tawûsê Melek is the same as his own, perhaps as a reincarnation. He is believed to have said:

I was present when Adam was living in Paradise, and also when Nemrud threw Abraham in fire. I was present when God said to me: 'You are the ruler and Lord on the Earth'. God, the compassionate, gave me seven earths and throne of the heaven.

mozda ce zvucati cudno, no moje misljenje je da smo svi mi luciferi nami:!

Gledajmo simbolicno, lucifer je andjeo koji se odvojio od Boga, on je prvi koji je uveo grijeh oholosti. Oholost je odvajanje sebe od Boga (gledanje na sebe kao da si drugaciji od svih ostalih) - to je jedno te isto. Prema tome, prvi koji se odvojio od svog keatora je bice koje ima dozivljaj odvojenosti od Kreatora. A mi ljudi, jel smo ista razliciti? Mislimo da smo odvojeni od prirode, Kreatora, zemlje, zivotinja, jednih dugih radi iluzije (maye), znaci prema tome, prvo bice koje je uslo u iluziju odvojenosti je lucifer, ono sto je moglo nastati od njega su isto takva bica - a to smo mi ljudi, jer svi imamo osjecaj odvojenosti. To nije zlo, to je neznanje, to je istrazivanje svijesti u svrhu sirenja, expanzije.
Osobno mislim da je puno bolja prepricana ta prica u vedama kad je Brahma izrastao iz pupka Vishnua, TO JE NEKA PRIVIDNA ODVOJENOST, pa je nastavio dalje kreaciju....
ili od Kastanede prica da nas Orao na kraju prozdire sve nase duse i skuplja nasa iskustva, takodjer su mi interesantni Bogumili i Jezidi. Za mene je Ego, ljudski osjecaj odvojenosti od Boga zapravo Lucifer (simbolicno postoji, ne kao bice koje nas kaznjava), uostalom, cudno mi je kako se nitko nije zapitao, kako u savrsenoj kreaciji koja je Bog sam moze postojati nesto nesavrseno? Ta borba dobra i zla je iluzija, ne postoje dobri i zli u ocima Kreatora, jer su to sve njegova djeca, kao sto i majka voli svoju dijecu, i pusta ih da se razvija i skupljaju iskustva kakva zele tako i On to dopusta.

Tko su ti Jezidi, je li ih tko istraživao više, što se može reći o njima, kakvo je ovo gore pismo/simbolika pokraj pauna, gdje su njihovi počeci...

[pavaogc]

Za vrijeme turskog i kurdskog genocida na kršćanima od 1915-1923 godien, jedino Jezidi nisu sudjelovali u zločinima nad kršćanima, već su čak bili i oni ponekad žrtve istoga.

Jezidi su stoljećima bili u dobrim odnosim s kršćanima, zahvaljujuću kojima su i prezivljavali.

GURIJEVLJEVA POTRAGA Gurđijev se rodio sedamdesetih godina prošlog veka u Aleksandropolju u Kavkaskoj oblasti današnje Rusije, od oca Grka i majke Jermenke. Iako je datum rođenja u njegovom pasošu 28. novembar 1877, njegovi sopstveni izveštaji o svom dobu i događajima iz života ukazuju da se rodio ranije, verovatno oko 1872. Dok je bio još dečak, njegova porodica preselila se u okolinu grada Karsa, gde je imao sreće da uči kod kanonika ruske vojne crkve, koji je, zajedno sa Gurđijevljevim ocem, značajno uticao na njegov život. Prema Gurđijevu, ta dva čoveka bila su odgovorna za rano rađanje "težnje, koja se ne da potisnuti, da se jasno razume, u celini, tačan značaj životnih procesa svih spoljašnjih oblika života koji poseduju dah na zemlji, a posebno cilj ljudskog života u svetlu tog tumačenja." Zašto živimo? Šta na kraju svega, kad dođe smrt? Kao mladić, Gurđijev je bio impresioniran određenim neobjašnjivim događajima o kojima nisu mogli da mu daju nikakvo sigurno mišljenje. Bio je prisutan na seansi prizivanja duhova posle smrti svoje mlađe sestre; video je kako je paralizovani ponovo prohodao na svečevom grobu; iskusio stravičnu tačnost u predviđanjima čoveka koji je proricao sudbinu; bio svedok čudesnog isceljenja koje je bilo posledica medicinskog saveta dobijenog u snu; slušao je o telu Tatarina koje je hodalo posle smrti. On sam je pokušao da pripadnika sekte Jezida izvuče iz kruga odakle on ne može da pobegne, samo da bi video da je ovaj, kad ga je izvukao, pao u besvesno stanje katalepsije. Eksperimentisao je sa hipnozom dok nije ovladao ovom veštinom. Nedostatak potpunog i tačnog razumevanja ovakvih pojava, od strane svojih učitelja i staratelja koji su bili izuzetno cenjeni, dovelo je Gurđijeva do duboke unutarnje želje da razvije jasno i sažeto razumevanje svih vidova ljudskog postojanja.

Life in the wilderness

There are about 200,000 Kurds in Armenia.

Many of them are Yezidis, a secretive religious sect whose unusual traditions have, unfairly, led to them being labelled devil-worshippers.

Leading semi-nomadic lives, they spend winter in their villages and, in April, move to Alpine pastures high in the mountains.

Yezidis are an ancient, pre-Islamic sect of uncertain origin.

Kurdistan, the cradle of ancient civilizations, has seen many races, people, religions and cultures during the past few thousand years. From the beginning of classical history two old-world civilizations, Aryan and Semitic, met, formed bonds, and were mutually influenced on the soil of Kurdistan. To a lesser or greater extent, they left their marks on this soil, particularly in the religious beliefs of the people of Kurdistan.

Along with the religions that came from outside, notably Christianity, Islam and Judaism, those native to Kurdistan continue to exist on Kurdish soil. Yezidism, Yarsanism and Alewism still have large numbers of adherents and defenders. To better understand the history and culture of the people of Kurdistan, it is imperative to conduct research into these religions. Unfortunately, to date, such research is all too rare.

Scholarly study of the Yezidis began in 1850 when German Scholar Dr. August Neander read a paper on Yezidi religion at the Prussian Academy of Science. (1) Thereafter, many books and commentaries on the topic were published; but to this day it is not clear when and on what foundations Yezidism came into existence.

Yezidis believe their religion to be ancient and to predate Islam by at least a thousand years. Although some foreign scholars maintain that Yezidism began with Sheikh Adi and view him as its founder, no Yezidi accepts this claim. In fact, Yezidis believe that prior to accepting Islam, all Kurds belonged to Yezidism.

(...)

According to Zoroastrian legend, god would stop the flow of water through cities, leaving residents with no alternative but to sacrifice selected maidens. Then god would restore the water flow. (8) Later, they depicted god as a serpent. This is the source of the Yezidi practice of swearing by the yellow serpent. To the Yezidis, Azhi Dahak does not represent evil. They have not accepted Zoroastrian religious beliefs.

During the Saddam’s era the Yezidis were misclassified as Arab in ethnicity by force. Although Saddam has gone, but the Kurds have come to power in Northern Iraq since 1991, and they are forcing the innocent Yezidis to be misclassified as Kurdish, again this time under KRG’s brutal and dictatorial system. All these are misleading, untruth, and pure fiction about the innocent Yezidis (Ezdae). Because of all these misunderstanding the truth about the Yezidis, we have been attacked hundreds of times in the past 1000 years to present, therefore we (Ezdae) have lost millions of innocent Yezidis in brutal and inhumane attacks against this most indigenous and peaceful nation in the world today.

(...)

The Yezidi (Ezdae) faith is not missionary one, the Yezidi have rights to exit from the Yezidi faith at anytime he/she wants to. But we Yezidi have no authority to accept others into our faith. Therefore, while we Yezidi have a closed faith, “The Yezidis are Yezidi by both Religion and Ethnicity”. In our own spelling and pronunciation for our Religion is called “Ezdae” which means one of the divine names of God. “We are created by “Supreme God”, and for the Ethnicity and language it is called “Ezidi”.

Several other early cultures, religions and civilizations connected the north not only with the direction of the celestial abode, but also with the transmigration of the soul. Among them were the Mandaeans of Iraq and Iran (first encountered by European travellers during the Middle Ages and erroneously termed 'St John's Christians'), the angel-worshipping Yezidi from Northern Iraq and Syria, and the Shiite sect known as the Brethren of Purity, all of which are descended from the Sabians of Harran. Most usually it is the Pole Star, also known as the North Star, that is the object of their veneration, even though originally this could not have been Polaris, the current Pole Star, due to the process of precession.

The Initiatoric Draconian Magic

The Draconian initiation is based on 1+9+1 levels that together constitutes 11 steps that corresponds to the Qliphoth and the 11 demon rulers who act as the nightside and antitheses of creation. The first step is where the uninitiated begins. An opening of the gate to the dark side. The following 9 steps represents the 9 levels of the night side or the underworld that Odin passes through on his initiation in the secrets of the runes. These steps brings the adept to the heart of darkness and transforms man into a god (like promised by the serpent in Genesis 3:5 when man begins the initiation by eating of the fruits of knowledge). The last step is beyond the limits of creation.

1. Lilith 1.0°. The gate to the unknown.
———
2. Gamaliel 2.0°. The dark dreams. Astral magic. Witchcraft. The mysteries of the dark moon. The dark Goddess.
3. Samael 3.0°. The philosophy of the left hand path. The wisdom of insanity. Yezidi magic. The dark side of the Chakras.
4. A'arab Zaraq 4.0°. Luciferian magic. The dark side of Venus. Eroto-mysticism and the path of the warrior.
5. Thagirion. 5.0°. The illumination of the nightside. The black sun. The union of the god and the beast.
6. Golachab 6.0°. Ragnarök. The activation of Surt/Sorath. The magnetism of lust and suffering.
7. Gha'agsheblah 7.0°. The higher levels of eroto mysticism. Preparations for the abyss.
8. Satariel 8.0°. The opening of the eye os Lucifer/Shiva/Odin. The Drakon principle.
9. Ghagiel 9.0°. The lightening of the Luciferian star.
10. Thaumiel 10.0°. The accomplishment of the promise given by the serpent. Divinity.
———
11 Thaumiel 11.0°. The black hole. The step into the new creation. Universe B.

The four main traditions behind the magical system of Dragon Rouge have one important thing in common. They are step by step leading the adept down into the darkness where he/she can become a god. By entering the dark side like Odin or Khepera and sacrificing oneself, one can be transformed from a creation to a creator.

Melek Taus je bog Yezidi kulture, onaj koji je stVorio Vasionu. U preVodu, Melek Taus, ili TaVuse Malak znachi paun-andjeo. Tako je i predstaVljen na slikama...

Yezidi su mali narod na seVeru Iraka. Muslimani su ih dugo progonili i mrzjeli, upraVo zbog Melek Tausa. Yezidi Veruju da je to prVi andjeo, koji se odmetnuo od Boga i stVorio materijalni sVet, nakon chega se pomirio s Bogom. Dugo su smatrani za sataniste i ljudi su mislili da slaVe Lucifera, ali nije bash tako jednostaVno. Oni ne slaVe Lucifera onako kako ga ostali narodi predstaVljaju, Vetj ga poshtuju kao StVoritelja, pomirili su ga s Bogom. Yezidi otVoreno priznaju da je Lucifer njihoV Bog, saVrsheno su sVesni toga, medjutim oni misle da je drugachije...
Njegovo andjeosko ime je Sataniel - Satanailo. Kasnije, kada mu je oduzet status bozhjeg andjela, postao je Satana.

Tawsi Melek, the “Peacock Angel” and “Peacock King,” is the most import deity of the Yezidis. But he is not just the possession of the Yezidis, he belongs to the entire world. The Yezidis believe that they possess the oldest religion on Earth, the primeval faith that features Tawsi Melek, and that all other traditions are related to them through the Peacock Angel. They contend that Tawsi Melek is the true creator and ruler of the universe, and therefore a part of all religious traditions. He does not, however, always manifest within these diverse traditions as a peacock. Tawsi Melek has taken on many other forms throughout time.

The Yezidis do not believe that the Peacock Angel is the Supreme God. The Supreme God created him as an emanation at the beginning of time. He was brought into manifestation in order to give the invisible, transcendental Supreme God a vehicle with which to create and administer the universe. Tawsi Melek is thus a tangible, denser form of the infinite Supreme God. In order to assist Tawsi Melek in this important role, the Supreme Creator also created six other Great Angels, who were, like the Peacock Angel, emanations of the Supreme God and not separate from him. When recounting the creation of all Seven Great Angels, the Yezidis often summarize the emanation process as follows:

Tawsi Melek was the first to emerge from the Light of God in the form of a seven-rayed rainbow, which is a form he still today continues to manifest within to them (usually as a rainbow around the Sun). But the Yezidis also claim that Tawsi Melek and the six Great Angels are collectively the seven colors of the rainbow. Therefore, the six Great Angels were originally part of Tawsi Melek, the primal rainbow emanation, who bifurcated to become the rainbow’s seven colors, which are collectively the Seven Great Angels. Of the seven colors produced from the primal rainbow, Tawsi Melek became associated with the color blue, because this is the color of the sky and the heavens, which is the source of all colors.

Tawsi Melek was, therefore, both the first form of the Supreme God and one of the Seven Great Angels, which is a cosmic heptad mentioned within many religious traditions. The Jews, Christians, Persian, Egyptians all have their seven angels and creators. In the Meshefê Re, the Yezidis “Black Book,” there is one passage that describes the Seven Great Angels and associates their creation with the seven days of Creation. The text first states that the Supreme God first created a pearl containing the substance or substratum of the soon-to-be physical universe, ostensibly referring to the molten mass preceding the “Big Bang” championed by modern physics. The Yezidi text then maintains that for forty thousand years this pearl sat upon a primal bird, which is quite possibly an incipient form of Tawsi Melek before he divided into the Seven Great Angels.

Zmija kao jedan od svetih simbola... Čini se da se zaista religije, simbolika i znanja istoka i zapada dodiruju u Jezidizmu.

The story of the Yezidis can be traced back more than four thousand years-before they came to be called Yezidis-until the trail disappears into the mists of time. Based on few accounts, and those often contradictory, it is complex and difficult to follow.

Typical of the difficulties encountered in learning about them is a story told by the anthropologist Sami Said Ahmed, who completed a massive study of the Yezidis (or Yazidis) in 1975. He was given two manuscripts at different times, written by a Yezidi friend. Each purported to explain the beliefs of Yezidism with seemingly superficial legendary tales taken as fact, and each contradicted the other. Working assiduously, Ahmed eventually found that the manuscripts contained real facts and genuine articles of Yezidi belief, but in disguised form. When told of this, the Yezidi friend replied, "The book which I presented to you contains only one (fact) of the thousands (of facts) of Yazidism."Further, he maintained that "Yazidism is the mother of all Eastern religions." -- Gurdjieff and Yezidism, part 1.

Pretpostavlja se da se porijeklo Kurda vuče od prije 7000 to 8000 godina, tačnije od Hurita koji su govorili sjeverno-kavkaskim jezikom, bliskom današnjem čečenskom. Huriti su živjeli u prostoru Zargos i Taurus planina, pa kao i Kurdi nisu išli daleko od planina. Poslije Huriti su se podijelili na nekoliko klanova i grupa. Sva ova plemena bila su dio zemlje "Karda" ili "Karduči" te "Guti" ili "Gutium". Inače, ovo su isti narodi samo su se podijelili na nekoliko plemena. Babilonci su ove ljude nazvali "Gardu" ili "Qarda", u okolici Asirije bili su "Qurti" ili "Guti". Kada su Grci došli na teritoriju nazvali su ove ljude "Kardukh". Prema DNK analizi Kurdi su danas bliži Evropljanima nego narodima iz Bliskog i Srednjeg Istoka.

Kurdski pripada porodici iranskih indoeuropskih jezika, jezici koji su bliski kurdskom su farsi (perzijski, armenski, tadžički i paštunski). Ipak, većina Kurda, pored kurdskog poznaju i jezike zemalja u kojima žive tj. arapski, turski ili perzijski. Razlike među dijalekata Kurmandži i Sorani dijalekta su nešto manje nego razlike između njemačkog i engleskog. Tako naprimjer Kurmandži ima gramatičke rodove i padeže, dok Sorani to nema.
Populacija [uredi]

Danas na svijetu živi oko 40 miliona Kurda. Imaju jako visok prirodni priraštaj i veliki broj živorođenih tako da se broj Kurda stalno povećava. Danas Kurdi su čak 20% stanovništva Turske, 20% Iraka, 8% Sirije, 7% Irana i oko 2% Armenije. No, danas je veliki broj Kurda van rodnih mjesta, tako da ih je oko 500 000 do 800 000 u Njemačkoj, pored Njemačke žive i u drugim europskim zemljama, a zemlje u kojima je zastupljen velik broj Kurda su Francuska, Danska, Švedska, Austrija, Švicarska, Velika Britanija i Holandija. Po vjeroispovjesti, danas većina Kurda su Sunitski Muslimani, iako postoji i nekolicina Katolika, Jevreja te tradicionalnih kurdskih i bliskoistočnih vjera.

In her 2005 memoir, “Love My Rifle More Than You,” linguist and former intelligence specialist Kayla Williams described her military experiences near the Northern Iraq-Syria border. The work is unique because it provides Western civilization an accessible yet brief glimpse of the Kurdish-speaking group, the Yezidi. The Yezidi, a Kurdish religion with ancient Indo-European roots, is thought to have developed out of the prehistoric Mitrhaic and Mesopotamian religious traditions (Yazidi). Williams was able to interact with the Yezidi in part because the Yezidi are grateful for the US occupation of Iraq that protects them from persecution by local Muslims that considered them to be devil-worshippers. Though she did not study the group extensively, she understood their religion as very ancient and concerned with angels. Most significant is Williams encounter with a Yezidi shrine on a mountaintop which she describes as “a small rock building with objects dangling from the ceiling” with alcoves for the placement of offerings (Yazidi). These dangling objects are a contemporary manifestation of an ancient practice of working with astrological phenomena in a physical, embodied way.

(...)

This idea of containing and transforming energies in crucibles is significant in the fact that the voice of the Yezidi speaks strongest in the texts consulted by Renaissance magicians.
