Looking very neutral

As a teen, going through this walkway was one of my favorite things about flying United out of O'Hare. Here's an article on the terminal which explains that "the passenger corridor features a 744 foot neon sculpture by California artist Michael Hayden. The sculpture, entitled "Sky's the Limit" is the largest light sculpture in the world."

In support of the Osiris Honored and Disgraced graphic, I am adding a comparison of the Hindu/Bhuddist Mahakala "Blue Demon", alongside the Egyptian Set, Aztecas figure on the Western Wall of Teotihuacan in Mexico, and the Babylonian "Tiamat" - Chaos Monster.

 

Cautionary note: I have seen a few examples of ancient cultures making massive insulting degradations of their rival religious figures, i.e., the Aten Sun disk being hurled like a piece of trash by the Discus Thrower, or the Tibetan Buddhist Mahakala hurling a figure of Ra in his right hand, or Osiris being kicked around like a Soccer-Soker ball.

 

For whatever reasons, this extremely famous figure is prominent in many ancient cultures, sometimes revered as the epitome of Godliness and protection and strength. In other time epochs, in other cultures, this figure is the ultimate terror of the underworld, and considered the devil or Satan.

 

What is amazing to me is that in 2002, the Monterey Bay Research Institute (MBARI) had posted several ocean floor images at the President Jackson Seamount off the Oregon Coast.

(update note. 9/12/24): PAGE NOT FOUND, has been deleted)

 

On this webpage, the image on the right, if inverted, and under Photoshop color manipulation, shows many plausible images, one of which is the unmistakable Mahakala. And note, MBARI disagreed with me two years ago saying that these stone groupings were over one mile deep, and could not have been placed or carved by humans!

 

Verbally and in writing, I countered that In all possibilities, it could have been a shipwreck loaded with stone carvings that went down. It could have been the volcanic mountaintop habitats pushed into the depths. Or as the scientific world is now discovering, human habtitats have now been identified as existing up to three miles down, making this MBARI area easily believable as a human habitat, 10,000 to 40,000 years ago.

 

Either way, as an amateur researcher, I believe these "Blue Demon" images plausibly depict the blue fireball with red-hair contrails, ejected from Saturn after an interplanetary collision visible from earth. This cataclysmic event of ancient world legend caused an immense worldwide catastrophe and extermination at high altitudes, probably a world flood, and is the meaning of Set with the decapitated head of Osiris on the Western wall of Teotihuacan.

 

Side note: Osiris had lost virtually his entire worldwide kingdom. His zoologic form was the Raven bird, and named after how the bird sounds "Kah-Kah", i.e., Titicaca, Texcoco, Chee-kah-koh. Imagine if a world God-figure goes from "God of Gods", to the present day name for "excrement, kah-kah", hence the transition from Honor to Disgrace, from living God to dismembered and decapitated. And who/what caused it? Saturn, Set, Kala, Mahakala, and probably Tlaloc, the Blue Demon beast.

 

And of course, let's not forget Tiamat of the Babylonians which is the Monster Goddess of Chaos.

I first reported this information on Architecture Week's Fireside Forum, on April, 2008

"Bhuddist rock sculpture? Found at 3000 + feet underwater..."
