About The Fallen Ones, Also Known As Nephilim
About The Fallen Ones, Also Known As Nephilim
their own.
How long have these beings existed? Nobody knows, but my research implies that
they may have existed since ancient times, quite possibly before written
history. Due to their reincarnation, they spend much time in an unconscious
state deep within their hosts, and it appears that they can remain dormant
through many incarnations. Some of them claim to have been famous people or even
the truth behind the ancient Egyptian gods.
Needless to say, different Traditions have very different views of the Fallen
Ones. In my research I have discussed them with fellow scholars from the
Celestial Chorus, Ahl-I-Batin, Euthanatos and Akashic Brotherhood. It was the
Celestial Chorus who named them the Fallen Ones. According to their doctrines,
the Nephilim are guardian angels who have stepped out of line, refusing to obey
the dictates of the Highest and instead tried to reach Ascension by themselves
instead by helping mankind. They are fallen, and will remain a disharmonious
part of Creation until they realize that the only way towards Ascension is to
follow the divine Will.
The Ahl-I-Batin scholars I met called them the Watchers, the First Race or
sometimes the Djinn. According to the Koran, Allah first created these beings
but had later forsaken them for humanity, who showed greater promise and had
free will. There is a warning in one of the suras of the Koran against any
contact between the races, on the penalty of eternal damnation. However, due to
the great magickal prowess of the Djinn some human sorcerers apparently summoned
them to use them, allowing them access to our plane of existence. The
Ahl-I-Batin apparently do their best to trace the escaped Watchers (so named
because they see all of our reality from their own plane) and bring them back
into the fold.
The Euthanatos actively hunt the Nephilim. They regard them as one of the worst
perversions of existence known, a Kia who has been polluted by the lower will of
a incarnation and now moves along the wheel polluting new reincarnations. The
Euthanatos apparently seeks to capture them and subject them to Gilgul in order
to prevent further contamination.
The scholar of the Akashic Brotherhood I discussed with claimed that the Fallen
Ones were an almost purely western phenomenon and were practically unknown in
the east for some reason. He speculated that the widespread belief in
reincarnation somehow limited their activity, but this seems doubtful. Another
explanation which may or may not be true, is that the Fallen Ones were once
defeated in the east and driven west. However, nobody have any idea of when this
happened, who did it and why.
To sum up, the Fallen Ones or Nephilim, are among the most bizarre beings our
Order have ever encountered. They doesn't seem to fit in with our current
theories of the nature of the Avatar, and might even be something else all
together. Their magickal powers are great, making them fearsome adversaries and
powerful allies. Their single-minded seeking of Ascension is both fascinating
and most dangerous, perhaps best seen as a warning against letting the Seeking
overcome our humanity.
