Download or read book Phallic Worship A Description of The Mysteries of The Sex Worship of The Ancients With The History of The Masculine Cross written by Anonymous and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sex Worship has prevailed among all peoples of ancient times, sometimes contemporaneous and often mixed with Star, Serpent, and Tree Worship. The powers of nature were sexualised and endowed with the same feelings, passions, and performing the same functions as human beings. Among the ancients, whether the Sun, the Serpent, or the Phallic Emblem was worshipped, the idea was the same—the veneration of the generative principle. Thus we find a close relationship between the various mythologies of the ancient nations, and by a comparison of the creeds, ideas, and symbols, can see that they spring from the same source, namely, the worship of the forces and operations of nature, the original of which was doubtless Sun worship. It is not necessary to prove that in primitive times the Sun must have been worshipped under various names, and venerated as the Creator, Light, Source of Life, and the Giver of Food. In the earliest times the worship of the generative power was of the most simple and pure character, rude in manner, primitive in form, pure in idea, the homage of man to the supreme power, the Author of life. Afterwards the worship became more depraved, a religion of feeling, sensuous bliss, corrupted by a priesthood who were not slow to take advantage of this state of affairs, and inculcated with it profligate and mysterious ceremonies, union of gods with women, religious prostitution and other degrading rites. Thus it was not long before the emblems lost their pure and simple meaning and became licentious statues and debased objects. Hence we have the depraved ceremonies at the worship of Bacchus, who became, not only the representative of the creative power, but the God of pleasure and licentiousness. The corrupted religion always found eager votaries, willing to be captives to a pleasant bondage by the impulse of physical bliss, as was the case in India and Egypt, and among the Phœnicians, Babylonians, Jews and other nations. Sex worship once personified became the supreme and governing deity, enthroned as the ruling God over all; dissent therefrom was impious and punished. The priests of the worship compelled obedience; monarchs complied to the prevailing faith and became willing devotees to the shrines of Isis and Venus on the one hand, and of Bacchus and Priapus on the other, by appealing to the most animating passion of nature.

Download or read book Phallic Worship written by Robert Allen Campbell and published by Kegan Paul International. This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Campbell concentrates on five key religious symbols -- the pillar, triad, triangle, cross, and serpent -- that are found in all the world's great religions, in many periods of history. He considers why these emblems were chosen as symbols of religious ideas, what they originally represented, when they were first adopted, why they came into such wide use, what they mean now and how and why the meanings of these symbols changed from their original values to their present ones. The illustrations show many parallels across time and space -- like the variations of the twined snake symbol, variously known as the Caduceus of Mercury, the Rod of Aesculapius, the Wand of Hermes, and the Staff of Siva, which all symbolize energy and healing.
Download or read book Phallic Worship written by George Ryley Scott and published by . This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scott's intro. to this fascinating work opens with a singularly bold contention: ÔThe study of phallicism', he states, Ôis the study of religion. In this lies its importance'. Phallic worship as a sensual, ritualistic celebration of fertility was almost totally banished from our lives by the strictures of Christian moralism. The silence that followed prevented popular understanding of a very natural & widespread religious impulse. This exciting work returns sexual cults to the central position they once occupied in many of the world's great religions. Scott argues for the importance of phallicism throughout history & across cultures, from the cult of Priapus in classical times, through witchcraft & paganism in early Europe, to the sensual religions of the East. B&W illustrations.
