Sun

The meaning of this is that They acted as a magnetic stimulus; They shone upon the people as the sun shines upon flowers, and drew them up towards Themselves, thus enabling them to develop the latent spark and to become individualised." (p.

Such of them as were sufficiently advanced were; it is true; taught by the Adept Gurus; but the instruction they required was limited to the explanation of a few physical phenomena, such as the movement of the earth round the sun; or the reason for the different appearance which physical objects assumed when viewed alternately by physical and by astral sight.

Sun worship with monolith circles.

Religion and Decline: Sun worship evolved into self-idolization and sorcery.

Peru's system mirrored Atlantis: communal land, sun worship.

So it produces sound and it burns the same as the sun it sounds very technological yes.

Then we press forward to the second evolutionary condition of our planet, to ancient Sun, and speak of how in the development of the elements, warmth has condensed to what we call a gaseous or aeriform state.

If we then look at the elemental conditions altogether during the Sun evolution, we should say that in ancient Sun there was an intermingling of warmth, light, and air.

The next condition ought to be one that represents a recapitulation of ancient Sun.

That is to pinpoint the fact that during the Sun period, the light invaded cosmic space.

Then the recapitulation of the old Sun evolution in Earth's development will be the coming of the light.

I can assure you that when in my "An Outline of Esoteric Science" I was describing the way the Earth came into existence as a recapitulation of ancient Saturn, ancient Sun, and ancient Moon, I quite deliberately and scrupulously ignored anything which could have been found in Genesis.

During the ancient Sun evolution, the Archangels were at the human stage; during the ancient Moon evolution, the Angels; and during Earth evolution, it is man who is at this stage.

They were among the beings creating and regulating evolution during the stages of ancient Saturn, Sun, and Moon, and they also contributed to Earth existence.

The first difficulty arises, of course, when we come to the fourth day, when Genesis first speaks of the setting up of the Sun and the Moon to direct time.

Every child today knows that the regulating of our 24-hour day depends on the relationship of the Earth to the Sun.

And when people spoke of days of the week, as we speak of Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and so on, they did not simply mean periods of time but the groups of beings active in Sun, Moon, Mars, and so on.

RAHMA is impractical, if not applied in daily life what we have learned, no sense making a serious and dynamic than it takes to be a missionary to the interior of the Mission: Sun on Earth.

The word Rahma means the Sun on Earth (RAH = Sun, MA = Earth), ie light, radiating light to the planet.

Walls then fall to the sun can shine

To 33,000 light years from Earth in the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way, the Sun is Manas.

Violet Light Central Sun of our Galaxy is received by the head.

From the Central Sun of the Galaxy.

This allows total solar eclipses due to precise diameters and distances between the sun, moon, and Earth—an unlikely coincidence.

In Norse mythology, the giant wolf Fenrir breaks free at the end of days, devouring the sun and plunging the world into darkness—the first act of Ragnarok.

Separate records collected by ethnographer James Mooney state that Cherokee ancestors originated in a land toward the rising sun near the seacoast.

When the sun rises or sets, it appears as a red-orange portion of the sky.

The Poseidii practiced monotheistic devotion to Incal, the Supreme Deity symbolized by the sun, focusing on principles of morality, karma, reincarnation, and cause-and-effect rather than miracles or polytheism.

He came to the conclusion that the inner sun had a diameter between 600 and 700 miles, and years later, seismology proved that the supposed inner core is exactly this big.

Moreover, the high-pressure gases produced by the melted lava from the crust will occupy the center of the object due to spinning around the center and will further contribute to creating the inner sun.

Before we completely disprove the theory of Earth having a core and replacing that with an inner sun, we must check how scientists first came to believe that our planet has a core to determine whether that makes any sense.

From the image presented, we can see P waves taking the path of least resistance instead of going through the inner sun.

And in our sun, and in the image I showed, young vampire saw the mystery of the shadow zone, a common problem in seismology, and this gives the hollow and inner sun theory while simultaneously disproving the existence of the inner molten core.

For those of you who are wondering what's the difference between having a core and a sun, while both objects are extremely dense and hot, the difference is that there's an air pocket between the Earth's crust and the dense object.

If instead of a core we have one inner sun, the Earth's magnetic field would be similar to the one of the sun, just weaker and smaller.

So what proves there is a sun inside Earth and it's not completely hollow?

Earth's magnetic field is much stronger than what it would have been if there was no inner sun or core in it.

But there is evidence that almost half the planets in the solar system are formed hollow and contain an inner sun instead of a molten iron core.

According to Gardner in his book "A Journey to the Earth's Interior," this was due to a central sun of Mars dispersing gas through the polar openings.

The gas forming in the middle of the hollow planet that we mentioned earlier can apparently turn into a proto-sun.

Similar bright whites have been observed coming from the polar region of Venus, and during a transit of Mercury across the sun, the planet, while black on the side towards us, was observed to emit a bright light comparable to the light of our sun coming from its black disk.

If Mars is hollow and contains an inner sun, and Earth is structured in a similar way…

Most likely, there's a vast open space, and then we have an inner sun.

We can confirm the existence of the inner sun by double-checking some of Euler's calculations.

According to him, the inner sun had a 600-mile diameter.

We can easily check if life inside the Earth can exist with a small sun with this size inside it.

Currently, Earth receives a very small portion of the sun's power due to the distance between the two objects and the way light travels primarily in straight lines.

After some simple calculations, we can easily deduce what an internal sun with dimensions of 600-mile diameter and temperature of 5,200 degrees would produce in terms of heat radiation or power output.

And the sun is currently producing a slightly larger number—it's not slightly; it's much larger.

However, we get a very, very tiny fraction of the sun's power.

This means we're receiving 2.82 times 10 to the 18th power watts from the outer sun—2 percent more than the supposed inner sun's power that we receive.

So the internal sun with dimensions of just 600 miles would produce 62 percent less energy than the outer sun's power that reaches Earth.

To sum up, the sun powers Earth with just a tiny fraction of its energy.

The inner sun powers Earth to 62 percent of the outer sun's equivalent energy that we receive, but it powers an atmosphere that is just 50 percent of the outer world's atmosphere in terms of size.

After the calculations and weighing in the atmospheric differences, this amounts to a very small percentage of the sun's energy, but this is still a lot.

Keep in mind that the inner Earth will not cool down with the same speed, and it would cool down twice as slow due to the 24/7 uptime of the inner sun.

This means that despite the inner sun being smaller, the temperature there would be roughly 1.5 to 2 times higher than the average temperature of this surface of the Earth where we live.

If you enter this wonderland and you take a look at the inner sun, the distance to it would be 3,100 miles, around 5,000 kilometers.

The inner sun would be far beyond the end of the inner atmosphere, allowing for clouds and for life to flourish there.

If you set foot in this place, you observe a sun pretty much the size of the moon in our night sky that we see.

In the distance, they saw a small reddish sun.

Initially, they shrugged it off as a mirage, but as they sailed on, the sun became bigger until they realized it was real—a planet of some sort.

There was one continent in the center of the Earth, with a single sun providing warmth.

Light provided by concave arches shining like the sun.

The earth, sun, moon, animals, and crops existed prior to or alongside this emergence, attributed to Unkulunkulu's ordering.

The Apocryhas account of their first day and night on the surface (First Book of Adam and Eve) tells of their dismay when the sun set, and their terror when it rose again the next morning, thus plainly indicating that they were entirely unfamiliar with surface conditions.

And they prayed to God to bring the sun to them, to shine on them, so that darkness would not return to them, and that they wouldn't have to go under this covering of rock.

And when he came to the mouth of it, and stood and turned his face towards the east, and saw the sun rise in glowing rays, and felt the heat thereof on his body, he was afraid of it, and thought in his heart that this flame came forth to plague him.

He then cried and beat his chest, then he fell on the ground on his face and made his request, saying: 'O Lord, plague me not, neither consume me, nor yet take away my life from the earth.' For he thought the sun was God."

In this creation myth, the Sun Mother is tasked by the Father of All Spirits to awaken dormant spirits on Earth.

The Sun Mother instructs all creatures to live peacefully before ascending as the sun.

Hungarian myth (European, Hungary): Eye seeds and Magya seeds lie below a primeval sea; a sun god as a golden duck retrieves them, awakening animals and the Magyars as they emerge to the surface.

The conception of justice as the union of temperance, wisdom, courage (Laws; Republic): the latent idea of dialectic implied in the notion of dividing laws after the kinds of virtue (Laws); the approval of the method of looking at one idea gathered from many things, 'than which a truer was never discovered by any man' (compare Republic): or again the description of the Laws as parents (Laws; Republic): the assumption that religion has been already settled by the oracle of Delphi (Laws; Republic), to which an appeal is also made in special cases (Laws): the notion of the battle with self, a paradox for which Plato in a manner apologizes both in the Laws and the Republic: the remark (Laws) that just men, even when they are deformed in body, may still be perfectly beautiful in respect of the excellent justice of their minds (compare Republic): the argument that ideals are none the worse because they cannot be carried out (Laws; Republic): the near approach to the idea of good in 'the principle which is common to all the four virtues,' a truth which the guardians must be compelled to recognize (Laws; compare Republic): or again the recognition by reason of the right pleasure and pain, which had previously been matter of habit (Laws; Republic): or the blasphemy of saying that the excellency of music is to give pleasure (Laws; Republic): again the story of the Sidonian Cadmus (Laws), which is a variation of the Phoenician tale of the earth-born men (Republic): the comparison of philosophy to a yelping she-dog, both in the Republic and in the Laws: the remark that no man can practise two trades (Laws; Republic): or the advantage of the middle condition (Laws; Republic): the tendency to speak of principles as moulds or forms; compare the ekmageia of song (Laws), and the tupoi of religion (Republic): or the remark (Laws) that 'the relaxation of justice makes many cities out of one,' which may be compared with the Republic: or the description of lawlessness 'creeping in little by little in the fashions of music and overturning all things,'—to us a paradox, but to Plato's mind a fixed idea, which is found in the Laws as well as in the Republic: or the figure of the parts of the human body under which the parts of the state are described (Laws; Republic): the apology for delay and diffuseness, which occurs not unfrequently in the Republic, is carried to an excess in the Laws (compare Theaet.): the remarkable thought (Laws) that the soul of the sun is better than the sun, agrees with the relation in which the idea of good stands to the sun in the Republic, and with the substitution of mind for the idea of good in the Philebus: the passage about the tragic poets (Laws) agrees generally with the treatment of them in the Republic, but is more finely conceived, and worked out in a nobler spirit.

Moreover they wrestle and exercise under a blazing sun, and they have many similar customs.' Well, but is courage only a combat against fear and pain, and not against pleasure and flattery?

And far is he from being a divine man who cannot distinguish one, two, odd and even; who cannot number day and night, and is ignorant of the revolutions of the sun and stars; for to every higher knowledge a knowledge of number is necessary—a fool may see this; how much, is a matter requiring more careful consideration.

'Let us hear.' My dear friend, how falsely do we and all the Hellenes speak about the sun and moon!

'Yes; and I have seen the morning and evening stars go all manner of ways, and the sun and moon doing what we know that they always do.

'True; but what is this marvellous knowledge which youth are to acquire, and of which we are ignorant?' Men say that the sun, moon, and stars are planets or wanderers; but this is the reverse of the fact.

Water is also in need of protection, being the greatest element of nutrition, and, unlike the other elements—soil, air, and sun—which conspire in the growth of plants, easily polluted.

Few among us are either able or willing to carry education into later life; five or six years spent at school, three or four at a university, or in the preparation for a profession, an occasional attendance at a lecture to which we are invited by friends when we have an hour to spare from house-keeping or money-making—these comprise, as a matter of fact, the education even of the educated; and then the lamp is extinguished 'more truly than Heracleitus' sun, never to be lighted again' (Republic).

The sun, and earth, and stars, moving in their courses, the recurring seasons, furnish proofs of their existence; and there is the general opinion of mankind.' I fear that the unbelievers—not that I care for their opinion—will despise us.

The proof that there are Gods who are good, and the friends of justice, is the best preamble of all our laws.' Come, let us talk with the impious, who have been brought up from their infancy in the belief of religion, and have heard their own fathers and mothers praying for them and talking with the Gods as if they were absolutely convinced of their existence; who have seen mankind prostrate in prayer at the rising and setting of the sun and moon and at every turn of fortune, and have dared to despise and disbelieve all this.

Their meaning is that fire, water, earth, and air all exist by nature and chance, and not by art; and that out of these, according to certain chance affinities of opposites, the sun, the moon, the stars, and the earth have been framed, not by any action of mind, but by nature and chance only.

We must not suppose that we can see and know the soul with our bodily eyes, any more than we can fix them on the midday sun; it will be safer to look at an image only.

Again, the soul carries round the sun, moon, and stars, and if the sun has a soul, then either the soul of the sun is within and moves the sun as the human soul moves the body; or, secondly, the sun is contained in some external air or fire, which the soul provides and through which she operates; or, thirdly, the course of the sun is guided by the soul acting in a wonderful manner without a body.

'Yes, in one of those ways the soul must guide all things.' And this soul of the sun, which is better than the sun, whether driving him in a chariot or employing any other agency, is by every man called a God?

Wherefore let the people meet after the summer solstice, in the precincts of Apollo and the Sun, and appoint three men of not less than fifty years of age.

The three shall be crowned with an olive wreath, and proclamation made, that the city of the Magnetes, once more preserved by the Gods, presents her three best men to Apollo and the Sun, to whom she dedicates them as long as their lives answer to the judgment formed of them.

They are priests of Apollo and the Sun, and he of their number who is judged first shall be high priest, and give his name to the year.

Those who maintain that the sun and the stars are inanimate beings are utterly wrong in their opinions.

Secondly, he remarks the self-conceit of a newly-fledged generation of philosophers, who declare that the sun, moon, and stars, are earth and stones only; and who also maintain that the Gods are made by the laws of the state.

As you and Megillus have been trained in these institutions, I dare say that you will not be unwilling to give an account of your government and laws; on our way we can pass the time pleasantly in talking about them, for I am told that the distance from Cnosus to the cave and temple of Zeus is considerable; and doubtless there are shady places under the lofty trees, which will protect us from this scorching sun.

If they rise early, they may all of them do much of their public and of their household business, as magistrates in the city, and masters and mistresses in their private houses, before the sun is up.

But we have not as yet spoken, O illustrious guardian of education, of the manner in which your pupils are to use those strains which are written in prose, although you have been informed what martial strains they are to learn and practise; what relates in the first place to the learning of letters, and secondly, to the lyre, and also to calculation, which, as we were saying, is needful for them all to learn, and any other things which are required with a view to war and the management of house and city, and, looking to the same object, what is useful in the revolutions of the heavenly bodies—the stars and sun and moon, and the various regulations about these matters which are necessary for the whole state—I am speaking of the arrangements of days in periods of months, and of months in years, which are to be observed, in order that seasons and sacrifices and festivals may have their regular and natural order, and keep the city alive and awake, the Gods receiving the honours due to them, and men having a better understanding about them: all these things, O my friend, have not yet been sufficiently declared to you by the legislator.

And very unlike a divine man would he be, who is unable to count one, two, three, or to distinguish odd and even numbers, or is unable to count at all, or reckon night and day, and who is totally unacquainted with the revolution of the sun and moon, and the other stars.

ATHENIAN: My good friends, at this hour all of us Hellenes tell lies, if I may use such an expression, about those great Gods, the Sun and the Moon.

CLEINIAS: Very true, Stranger; and in the course of my life I have often myself seen the morning star and the evening star and divers others not moving in their accustomed course, but wandering out of their path in all manner of ways, and I have seen the sun and moon doing what we all know that they do.

For, O my good friends, that other doctrine about the wandering of the sun and the moon and the other stars is not the truth, but the very reverse of the truth.

You cannot poison the soil, or the sun, or the air, which are the other elements of nutrition in plants, or divert them, or steal them; but all these things may very likely happen in regard to water, which must therefore be protected by law.

In the first place, the earth and the sun, and the stars and the universe, and the fair order of the seasons, and the division of them into years and months, furnish proofs of their existence, and also there is the fact that all Hellenes and barbarians believe in them.

For do but mark the effect of their words: when you and I argue for the existence of the Gods, and produce the sun, moon, stars, and earth, claiming for them a divine being, if we would listen to the aforesaid philosophers we should say that they are earth and stones only, which can have no care at all of human affairs, and that all religion is a cooking up of words and a make-believe.

Who can avoid hating and abhorring the men who are and have been the cause of this argument; I speak of those who will not believe the tales which they have heard as babes and sucklings from their mothers and nurses, repeated by them both in jest and earnest, like charms, who have also heard them in the sacrificial prayers, and seen sights accompanying them—sights and sounds delightful to children—and their parents during the sacrifices showing an intense earnestness on behalf of their children and of themselves, and with eager interest talking to the Gods, and beseeching them, as though they were firmly convinced of their existence; who likewise see and hear the prostrations and invocations which are made by Hellenes and barbarians at the rising and setting of the sun and moon, in all the vicissitudes of life, not as if they thought that there were no Gods, but as if there could be no doubt of their existence, and no suspicion of their non-existence; when men, knowing all these things, despise them on no real grounds, as would be admitted by all who have any particle of intelligence, and when they force us to say what we are now saying, how can any one in gentle terms remonstrate with the like of them, when he has to begin by proving to them the very existence of the Gods?

They say that fire and water, and earth and air, all exist by nature and chance, and none of them by art, and that as to the bodies which come next in order—earth, and sun, and moon, and stars—they have been created by means of these absolutely inanimate existences.

ATHENIAN: Then let us not answer as if we would look straight at the sun, making ourselves darkness at midday—I mean as if we were under the impression that we could see with mortal eyes, or know adequately the nature of mind—it will be safer to look at the image only.

ATHENIAN: If the soul carries round the sun and moon, and the other stars, does she not carry round each individual of them?

ATHENIAN: Every one sees the body of the sun, but no one sees his soul, nor the soul of any other body living or dead; and yet there is great reason to believe that this nature, unperceived by any of our senses, is circumfused around them all, but is perceived by mind; and therefore by mind and reflection only let us apprehend the following point.

ATHENIAN: If the soul carries round the sun, we shall not be far wrong in supposing one of three alternatives.

ATHENIAN: Either the soul which moves the sun this way and that, resides within the circular and visible body, like the soul which carries us about every way; or the soul provides herself with an external body of fire or air, as some affirm, and violently propels body by body; or thirdly, she is without such a body, but guides the sun by some extraordinary and wonderful power.

ATHENIAN: And this soul of the sun, which is therefore better than the sun, whether taking the sun about in a chariot to give light to men, or acting from without, or in whatever way, ought by every man to be deemed a God.

But if all the three, or two out of the three, have equal votes, let them commit the election to good fate and fortune, and separate off by lot the first, and the second, and the third; these they shall crown with an olive wreath and give them the prize of excellence, at the same time proclaiming to all the world that the city of the Magnetes, by the providence of the Gods, is again preserved, and presents to the Sun and to Apollo her three best men as first-fruits, to be a common offering to them, according to the ancient law, as long as their lives answer to the judgment formed of them.

And our Cretan colony ought also to acquire the fairest and noblest reputation for virtue from other men; and there is every reason to expect that, if the reality answers to the idea, she will be one of the few well-ordered cities which the sun and the other Gods behold.

This shall be a mixed body of young and old men, who shall be required to meet daily between the hour of dawn and the rising of the sun.

ATHENIAN: Just the opposite, as I said, of the opinion which once prevailed among men, that the sun and stars are without soul.

And the evening and the morning were the fourth day." This indicates the Elohim caused the sun, moon, and stars to be visible on Earth.

Sun worship was happening in Zoroastrianism; he says: "Why teach people to worship the sun as a god when it's the one God who makes the sun?" His followers say: "The priests are unhappy and coming to kill you; get out." He escapes just before, like in the canonical gospels.

These individuals were able to perceive higher spiritual beings associated with celestial bodies such as Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, and especially the Sun.

Sun Oracle

The Sun Oracle was the most exalted.

Phaethon falls after the chariot of the Sun.

Enoch (seventh, lived 365 years, "walked with God") with Enmeduranki (seventh, king of Sippar, linked to the sun god and divine secrets; 365 evokes a solar year).

Enoch (seventh, lived 365 years, "walked with God") with Enmeduranki (seventh, king of Sippar, linked to the sun god and divine secrets; 365 evokes a solar year).

Regular circuits of travel took ships through the Sirian system and the local star neighborhood, including your Sun.

Nebiru moves in a cyclical path that reaches the outer areas of Sirius before returning through the dark galactic winter to reenter the orbit of our Sun.

At the time of this cataclysmic change in our complex stellar body, the deity, Satais, collapsed, passing through her own astral chords and onto higher dimensional planes (much as your own Sun, Ra, is soon to do).

If you were out in Lyra or somewhere else in space, looking in your telescope toward this part of the galaxy, you would most likely think that Sirius, Sol (Earth’s sun), and Vega are a part of the same constellation or even system.

Taking into consideration the alignment of the sun, the moon, the stars, and the biorhythms—the subtle repeating functions that make the life of an organism possible, such as the seasons, rotation of the Earth, the spinning of the galaxy—of our planet, the Pleiadeans supervised the construction of temples and buildings.

Then a quiver and a roar marked moment when the land that mocked the sun went down!

(A) As there were those individuals that attempted to bring again to the mind of man more of those forces that are manifest by the closer association of the mental and spiritual, or the soul forces that were more and more as individual and personal forms in the world, the use of the these elements—as for the building up, or the passage of individuals through space—brought the uses of the gases then (in the existent forces), and the individuals being able to become the elements, and elementals themselves, added to that used in the form of what is at present known as the raising of the powers from the sun itself, to the ray that makes for disintegration of the atom, in the gaseous forces formed, and brought about the destruction in that portion of the land now presented, or represented, or called, Sargasso sea.

First that of a mass, which there arose the mist, and then the rising of same with light breaking over that as it settled itself, as a companion of those in the universe, as it began its natural (or now natural) rotations, with the varied effects upon the various portions of same, as it slowly—and is slowly—receding or gathering closer to the sun, from which it receives its impetus for the awakening of the elements that give life itself, by radiation of like elements from that which it receives from the sun.

Hence that of one type, that has been through the ages, of mind—that gives the sun as the father of light in the earth.

The number and features of these three sexes were owing to the fact that the male was originally the offspring of the sun, and the female of the earth; while that which partook of both sexes was born of the moon, for the moon also partakes of both.Plato, Symposium 189d-190b

I: They are located there, and they are also located in what you call “the central sun”.

And as we would call it, “the Cosmos”, or “the Lords of the central sun”, or the higher beings, or the light beings of the central sun.

The council, located on Sirius and connected to a “central sun” and “Lords of the Word,” enforces laws based on love and freedom, intervening when species stray from peace.

These were three priests and priestesses from Atlantean times who incarnated the mother of the divine, the father of the divine, and the divine itself (creation of the sun, the light—Horus).

Isis, the mother, put these parts together to create enlightenment, which is the sun—Horus, representing the unification of every part.

For Atlanteans, the divine of the sky was the divine of the sun, then the moon, and the Earth.

The trinity of the sun was Ra, Amun, and Atun—the three steps in which light is expressed in the universe.

These three levels of consciousness and concepts of the divine were incarnated in Atlantean families at three levels: for the sun, the trinity of Osiris, Isis, and Horus; for the moon, Djehuty, Seshat, and Hornup; for the Earth, Seth, Nephthys, and Anubis.

They were Atlantean people who taught humans to understand light in the moon, earth, and sun.

The god spread around the universe in different parts, called god, was put in the womb of the Holy Mother to create the sun representing darkness, light, and wisdom.

The holy spirit incarnated in the sun and light of the universe is today called Jesus Christ.

These 12 houses were represented by the sun, moon, and underground (darkness).

The rising sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light."

"He did away with the idolatrous priests appointed by the kings of Judah to burn incense on the high places of the towns of Judah and on those around Jerusalem—those who burned incense to Baal, to the sun and moon, to the constellations and to all the starry hosts."

"This is what the Lord says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the Lord Almighty is his name."

His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance."

"A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.

"And when you look up to the sky and see the sun, the moon and the stars—all the heavenly array—do not be enticed into bowing down to them and worshiping things the Lord your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven."

"Before them the earth shakes, the heavens tremble, the sun and moon are darkened, and the stars no longer shine."

"Immediately after the distress of those days 'the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.'"

"The sun has one kind of splendor, the moon another and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor."
