Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Origins of the Gods offers a detailed examination of the role played by shamanism and communication with higher intelligences in the development of ancient civilizations.

This intriguing book explores how our ancestors used shamanic rituals at sacred sites to create portals for communication with non-human intelligences. The authors share supporting evidence from the spiritual and shamanic beliefs of more than 100 Native American tribes. They show how the earliest forms of shamanism began at sites like Qesem Cave in Israel more than 400,000 years ago.

From GΓΆbekli Tepe in Turkey to the Egyptian pyramids, and from the stone circles of Europe to the mound complexes of the Americas, Andrew Collins and Gregory L. Little demonstrate how our ancestors repeatedly built permanent sites of ceremonial activity where geomagnetic and gravitational anomalies have been recorded.

They investigate the beginnings of animism and shamanism at places such as the Denisova Cave in the Altai Mountains of Siberia and Qesem Cave in Israel. The authors explain how shamanic rituals and altered states of consciousness, in combination with the natural forces of the earth, created portals for contact with otherworldly realms. Thus, the gods of our ancestors were the result of an interaction between human consciousness and transdimensional intelligence.

The book reveals how the spiritual and shamanic beliefs of more than 100 Native American tribes align with this theory. It shares vivid examples of active shamanic transdimensional portals today, such as those at Skinwalker Ranch in Utah and Bempton in northern England.

Ultimately, Collins and Little argue that our modern disconnection from nature and a lack of a fully visible night sky make manifestations from these ultraterrestrial intelligences seem random. If we can restore our spiritual connections, perhaps we can once again communicate with the higher dimensional beings who triggered the advancements of our earliest ancestors.
