Flower Said to Bloom Once in 3,000 Years Spotted Across Globe

The udumbara flower is said in Buddhist legend to bloom only once every 3,000 years, the last time being before the birth of Buddha. Spotted again across the world in the past 20 years or so, some say the udumbara could herald the coming of a great sage or enlightened being.

Udumbara is a word from the ancient Indian language, Sanskrit, meaning “an auspicious flower from heaven.”

According to Buddhist legend, its appearance heralds the arrival of the Holy King Who Turns the Wheel, rectifying the Dharma in the world. This King is said to accept anyone of any religious affiliation, offering salvation to all through compassion.

Volume 8 of the Buddhist scripture “Huilin Phonetics and Interpretation” states: “The udumbara flower is the product of propitious and supernatural phenomena; it is a celestial flower and does not exist in the mundane world. If a Tathagata or the King of the Golden Wheel appears in the human world, this flower will appear due to his great virtue and blessings.”

The Sumerian King List Spans for Over 241,000 Years Before a Great Flood -

Out of the many incredible artifacts that have been recovered from sites in Iraq where flourishing Sumerian cities once stood, few have been more intriguing that the Sumerian King List, an ancient manuscript originally recorded in the Sumerian language, listing kings of Sumer (ancient southern Iraq) from Sumerian and neighboring dynasties, their supposed reign lengths, and the locations of "official" kingship.

What makes this artifact so unique is the fact that the list blends apparently mythical pre-dynastic rulers with historical rulers who are known to have existed. The first fragment of this rare and unique text, a 4,000-year-old cuneiform tablet, was found in the early 1900s by German-American scholar Hermann Hilprecht at the site of ancient Nippur and published in 1906.

Since Hilprecht’s discovery, at least 18 other exemplars of the king’s list have been found, most of them dating from the second half of the Isin dynasty (c. 2017-1794 BCE.). No two of these documents are identical.


Relation to Genesis
Some scholars (e.g. Wood, 2003)
have drawn attention to the fact that there are remarkable similarities between the Sumerian King List and accounts in Genesis. For example, Genesis tells the story of ‘the great flood’ and Noah’s efforts to save all the species of animals on Earth from destruction. Likewise, in the Sumerian King List, there is discussion of a great deluge: “the flood swept over the earth.” The Sumerian King List provides a list of eight kings (some versions have 10) who reigned for long periods of time before the flood, ranging from 18,600 to 43,200 years. This is similar to Genesis 5, where the generations from Creation to the Flood are recorded. Interestingly, between Adam and Noah there are eight generations, just as there are eight kings between the beginning of kingship and the flood in the Sumerian King List. After the flood, the King List records kings who ruled for much shorter periods of time. Thus, the Sumerian King List not only documents a great flood early in man’s history, but it also reflects the same pattern of decreasing longevity as found in the Bible - men had extremely long life spans before the flood and much shorter life spans following the flood (Wood, 2003). The Sumerian King List truly is a perplexing mystery. -

I just had the absolute strangest earthquake dream ever. It had a very clear epicenter. Its magnitude was 8.0 and it hit northern California. It was a very clear drop and slide motion. The thing about the quake was it was extremely sharp, and extremely fast but it still felt like it lasted forever.

Here are the details of the earthquake motion from my dream and what the epicenter looked like according to news reports and eyewitness accounts. Once the earthquake was over everyone decided to pack it all up and get out of California. It specifically felt like everyone I talked to in my dream were all "leaving the state in droves".

Below is info on what I saw and felt in my dream.

Arcadia subduction fault would behave quite similarly. It has popped BIGGUNS in the past. Also, my wife is from California but I don't know the geography as well as her. Are you near a place called "long valley"?

There is a super volcano there, I think.

I'll give you another bone to chew on, if you don't already know. The Chinese king list matches the Sumerian and biblical records almost identically as well, long lives and all. Even names and symbols are very close, if I remember correctly.

If only the library at Alexandria hadn't burned.....that lost history depresses me to an unbelievable degree...

Sorry, also this. If men lived greatly extended lives, why not animals too, if it was an environmental causation, which I think it was.

If that's true, then an interesting thought is that reptiles never stop growing, you know. How big and wierd looking would a 1000 yr old or older reptile of some type look like, or a gator?

Methinks kinda scary. Just thinking out loud. I'm tired.
