    Extractions: sounding board The New Mythology When the Báb is first recognised in the Dawnbreakers He is described sitting among the assembled disciples of Siyyid Kázim, distinguished only by 'the ray of light that had fallen upon' His lap. It is a short phrase in the text, but like a myth, is of monumental significance. Again, when the Báb made His famous Declaration to Mulla Husayn, in 1844, it is recorded that a beverage was given, and there is great significance in the water used for cleansing: "He ordered a ewer of water to be brought, and bade me wash from my hands and feet the stains of travel. I pleaded permission to retire from His presence to perform my ablutions in an adjoining room. He refused to grant my request, and proceeded to pour the water over my hands. He then gave me to drink of a refreshing beverage..." There are other examples of the imagery of the 'beverage' and in the Tablet revealed by Bahá'u'lláh at the time of His own declaration, He says: "The Best-Beloved is come. In His right hand is the sealed Wine of His Name. Happy is the man who turneth unto Him and drinks his fill... The waters of everlasting life have, in their fulness, been proffered unto men. Every single cup hath been borne round by the hand of the Well-Beloved. Draw near and tarry not..." It is as though the story of Siyyid Kázim and the silver cup is an archetypal image which is echoed on down through time, and one wonders at the significance for our Feast, where we are told that the host must serve refreshments, even though it be only a glass of water.

    Extractions: Forget what the cynics tell you; the real oldest profession in human society is storytelling. From time immemorial humans have been talespinners. Their ancient art is preserved today in the types of stories called mythology, folktales, and fairy tales. These are stories that have stood the test of time, and usually for very good reason. They tend to touch something very basic to our psyche. It can be hard to tell where one type ends and another begins; at the fringes, they sort of shade into one another. Mythology is usually used to refer to ancient religious stories, tales of gods and demons. BULFINCH'S MYTHOLOGY is a classic reference work on mythology. Written by Professor Thomas Bulfinch in the mid-1800s, it remains one of the best sources for Greek, Roman, Norse, and European myths and legends. I have several other books that cover other mythologies from around the world: AFRICAN MYTHOLOGY

    Extractions: Scotland has a rich Celtic History going back over 2,000 years, at a time when superstition was rife and where unusual events were "explained" by stories and inventions which were then passed on by word of mouth. It is therefore not surprising that Scotland has an extensive heritage of myths and legends. There is an introduction to Celtic Mythology and Celtic Folklore Finally, the Encyclopaedia of the Celts contains quotations from many of the historic and legendary events and people. Spirits and Goblins Encyclopedia Mythica is a huge Web site covering many of the myths and legends around the world. With a bit of digging, the specifically Scottish elements within the Folklore section can be uncovered : Black Donald - the devil - who cannot disguise his cloven feet. Boobrie - water-bird of the Scottish Highlands. Brownie - good-natured, invisible brown elves or household goblins. The younger version of the "Girl Guides" in Britain at least, are called "Brownies" for that very reason! Clootie - another Scottish name for the Devil. The name comes from cloot, meaning one division of a cleft hoof.

    Extractions: The faery tale section has been added to. There are about 10 or 12 new tales for your enjoyment. Up and running and seemingly happily stable for a couple of months now, and hopefully it will stay that way and the hits are slowly and surely reappearing. A new look and a few modifications have been done. A wicca reference has finally been added (it's been on the back burner for quite a while), take a look. If time allows I hope to be adding to that section quite a lot. Enjoy The Pagan calendar is now WAP enabled. To view it just point your phone to http://www.celtic.uklinux.net and enjoy. I'm not having much luck with servers am I. However the site is back up and running on another machine, it's moved with me to the UK. I've gone back to a plainer look as well, it looks much neater. Comments and suggestions are welcome as always. After much work my site is back up again. I had to move it to a new server and unfortunately daily mailing of the calendar is no longer possible, but everything else is here. Please mail me if you find any errors. Enjoy.

    Extractions: of the White House (1792) and United States Capitol (1793). Webster's Dictionary defines gavel as "the mallet of the presiding officer...." Another dictionary defines the gavel as "a small mallet used by a presiding officer to signal for attention or order." Dr. Albert G. Mackey, 33°, who wrote the popular and thorough Encyclopedia of Freemasonry , says, "the common gavel is one of the working tools of the Entered Apprentice. It is made use of by the Operative Mason to break off the corners of the rough ashlar, and thus fit it the better for the builder's use, and is therefore adopted as a symbol in Speculative Masonry, to admonish us of the duty of divesting our minds and consciences of all the vices and impurities of life, thereby fitting our bodies as living stones for that spiritual building not made with hands, eternal in the heavens."
