Just before I go out for the day I thought it would be nice to post this Red Panda wisdom.

The three wise men came from Tibet, they consulted the oracle and the oracle said a new Buddha was to be born in Bethlehem. An Arcturian Spacecraft led them to the baby Jesus.

What are your thoughts on Red Panda Wisdom?



I will be sharing other wisdom over the Christmas period, the world cannot wait any longer.

      Richard wasn't even born then, but if he had been, he'd have got himself in the right spot with the paparazzi of the time.

    You have noticed that the idea of "three wise men" is not actually mentioned in the Bible? Read the story in read the story in Matthew 2:1-12.

    They did not appear on the day and hour of Jesus' birth, but afterward, and they did not go to a manger in a stable, but to a house where Mary and Jesus were staying;

    They were not simply wise men, or educated scholars, or local rulers, but "Magi";

    The star had appeared at a certain time, and it moved independently, leading them to Bethlehem and stopping over the very house where the family were staying;

    There were three gifts listed, but that doesn't mean there were three Magi present – the number of Magi is not mentioned, nor is it really important.

    The Early Christian tradition attributes the Gospel to Matthew, one of Jesus' disciples. Beginning in the 18th century scholars have increasingly questioned that traditional view, and today most scholars agree Matthew did not write the Gospel which bears his name. Most contemporary scholars describe the author as an anonymous Christian writing towards the end of the first century. The consensus view of the contemporary New Testament scholars is that the Gospel was originally composed in Greek rather than being a translation from Aramaic or Hebrew. It is nearly universally agreed among scholars that Matthew (and Luke) used Mark's narrative of Jesus' life and death, plus the hypothetical Q document's record of Jesus' sayings while the minority argue that Matthew was the first, Luke expanded on Matthew and Mark is the conflation of Matthew and Luke. Of the four canonical gospels, Matthew is most closely aligned with first century Judaism. Matthew repeatedly stresses how Jesus fulfilled Jewish prophecies. Most scholars hold that the author was a Jewish Christian rather than a Gentile. (I got this from wikipedia but I learned it all years ago in Bible College. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gospel_of_Matthew)

      There are all sorts of false claims about the great Tibetan lamas and the Arcturian spacecraft, and it's not my fault that it has not been documented properly. But I will continue to speak the Truth regardless of the false teachings that have been spread to keep people in ignorance.

      Furthermore I have no knowledge if Tibet has any camels.
    3. acousticguitarist
      They don't as a rule. But they traveled a long way and had to adapt accordingly.

      I do find what you say of great interest. And yes I was aware that the three Tibetans did not go to the stable, but it looks great on a Christmas card and is a great image to portray to children. Three wise guys holding gifts.

      It is normal that when the great Bodhisattva's are born that the lamas do go looking for them and they get test the children by giving them various objects from the past to select from to confirm their identity. Quite frankly Jesus was a Buddha. It does not fit comfortably into the Christian point of view and he had all the markings of a Buddha. Although some Christians would find the concept offensive does not mean that he should be struck off the list of great Buddhas of the past so many thousand years.
    5. PeacefulWmn9
      You are right. It mentions no specific number of wise men...it names 3 types of gifts that were given.
    6. acousticguitarist
      Three were wise, the others got them lost and they ended up at Herods, I will post why tomorrow.

    People don't get what these Magi would have been, either. "Magi" is simply plural for "Magus." A Magus is a sorcerer. Simon Magus was one and he turned out to be a pretty bad one, according to Acts. But there have been good and bad Magi throughout history. And such have often been both revered and feared 2000 years ago.

    From the practices of sorcerers, I would expect that these Magi, like most were eidetic. If they thought in a certain way, they would see what they are thinking in their visual fields. When cultivated in the various rituals that existed then (as now, at least in principle), such dreaming practices have a strange way of meshing with physicality so that the demarcation line between them becomes quite blurry. One might not even be certain just which world one really is at times.

    What was the star, then? Some have suggested that it was a band of angels leading those Magi. Since theurgists, as Magi today are known to be, it makes sense that their dreaming practices would have been couched in the sacred concepts they already had. The star could very well have been that, whether others would see the star or not. A UFO; within the context of CG Jung's ideas about UFO's, mandalas, and individuation; would not be entirely outside the realm of possibility. Finding a Messiah would have brought all of them quite close to that magickal realization of completeness. But it would be a stretch to ascribe such an event to visitors from Alpha Bootes.

    BTW, I don't know where the idea came that the Magi rode on camels. Chances are, they used horses instead as they would most likely have been from Mesopotamia or Persia, following the Fertile Crescent.
    1. acousticguitarist
      The Magi, lamas, Tibetan brujos used many forms of transport on their journey to Bethlehem.

      more later

      Let us keep the New Age crap away from distorting the Bible's message.
    3. acousticguitarist
      The bible is incorrect in many areas, my Christmas story is much more accurate. Just ask Jesus
    4. acousticguitarist
      The idea of it being a starship is feasible, regardless what people who nothing of the subject say, it is very possible. But hey weren't Billy Meier's Plejarin's because they couldn't even see Jesus. And this I find fascinating.
  5. acousticguitarist
    I shall be posting my second Red Panda wisdom tomorrow

    Your post is so wisdomous, I can't leave this thread without making a contribution.

    UFO's? Is there a Scientologist undertone here
    1. acousticguitarist
      PetPerson

      No, they don't believe in the book of Red Panda. Also we have no celebrities. Hubbie has nothing to do we me, in fact I did hear that when he went to a zoo, he sneezed when he went near the incarcerated cousins of mine. At this is often what happens, when people encounter wisdom when they are not ready for it, a part of their brain acts up and they have an allergic reaction to truth. Not my problem.
    2. acousticguitarist
      Sirlamo knows truth when he hears it
  8. LGramlich
    I think you've listened to Chris deBurgh's "A Spaceman Came Traveling."
    1. acousticguitarist
      He has not read the book of Panda, in fact I'm just channeling it and you are getting it live. However, he, Randy California and the guys i the band Spirit are still working through the Uranta Bible, it's so big they get stuck all the time about 2/3's of the way through.
  9. siralmo

    I have read the book of Red Panda. Visit my blog and click my affiliate link if you wish to purchase.

    I love this sort of knowledge. Thank you "that which has a tail that likes to be brushed".
    1. acousticguitarist

      No we don't hurt cats
    4. siralmo

      Guitar playing aliens... sending Arcturian Love at Christmas

      Beam me up!
    6. siralmo
      hurting cats, duh

      besides it should be guitar playing intergalactic red panda
    7. acousticguitarist
      No, would never hurt animals.

      I didn't even pick flowers for 30 years
  12. skwguitar
    I'm so confused...
    1. acousticguitarist
      I'm sure you were already confused before you read this post. :-)

      Do you know much about chord substitution and improvisation? Some people find that confusing as well, however I started working on that stuff in 1973
    2. siralmo
      hahaha no way, it just takes practice, i can do it on a piano, but am not accomplished enough on my guitar, give me a sax and ill blow your brains out
    3. skwguitar
      All I can do is read tabs... self taught/teaching (I always say you never really do learn to play the guitar, you just keep figuring out new stuff to play) but most of the time I try to figure stuff out by ear.
    4. acousticguitarist
      skwGuitarist
      everyone learns differently. TAB is useful, check out my acoustic guitar blogs. I write TAB and dots, there's a lot of useful info.

      What sax players do you like? In the 70's and 80's I had lots of albums by saxophone players, I used to really like saxophone but have eased up ythese days. Charlie Mariano is good, David Liebman, Phil Woods, John Surman, Sonny Fortune, Gato Barbieri and especially Jan Garbarek... there are so many
    6. siralmo
      i know there are heaps and i can't remember names
  13. xmarks
    Why did those Alien jerks make the magi hoof it? Couldn't they just give them a ride?
    1. acousticguitarist
      They weren't jerks. But it's a very good question.

      Like, hey where are you going to park a spacecraft in Bethlehem?
    2. xmarks
      Between Tibet and Bethlehem there wasn't a single Park'n'Ride?
    3. acousticguitarist
      This an American concept unknown to other species
    4. siralmo
      what is this park'n'ride?? i am not familiar with this concept
    5. acousticguitarist
      I don't know but I thought it was something like, park your ute in this little rectangle, then get a minibus or camel to the destination
    6. siralmo
      thats an interesting idea, i wonder if that be a worthy business idea here??
    7. acousticguitarist
      maybe fly in a few rickshaws from Delhi instead of camels
  14. vacationTourism
    ancient story... journey to the west
    like sun go kong.
    1. acousticguitarist
      Sun Go Kong ???????
    2. siralmo
      please tell
    3. acousticguitarist
      apparently a story about a monkey
    4. siralmo
      really?? go on...
    5. acousticguitarist
      It's not my story
  15. ranist22
    Did you hear that bit about Elijah being taken for a ride in a UFO? Maybe it was the same one?
    1. acousticguitarist
      I did hear that. I think it was a smaller model :-)
  16. darren1985
    Hm, i don't really get it..
    But it's still interesting though!! :-D
    1. acousticguitarist
      darren. there are a lot of things people don't get about Red Panda wisdom. But just contemplate your navel for a while
    2. siralmo
      why is the naval an integral part of red panda wisdom??
    3. acousticguitarist
      It's an Eastern thing... people do Yoga, contemplate navel, people do Chi Gong and contemplate just near the navel...close enough. People join cults contemplate navel while Master contemplates bank balance.
  17. drjay1966
    I'm even more offended.
    1. acousticguitarist
      Alright, we'll give you a pretty Three Wise Men hat as well as the camel. That's my final offer.
    2. siralmo

  18. skwguitar
    I guess I'll take the hats... hold the camel
    1. acousticguitarist
      there was no hat for you, only a camel and a bucket of uncooked falafels
    1. acousticguitarist
      That is deeply disturbing

      I am having trouble watching it, and he doesn't look Tibetan to me

      Who's the drop-in

      I am struggling
    2. voodooKobra
      It's comedy. Ever heard of the Colbert Report?
    3. siralmo
      no i have not sir.
    4. acousticguitarist
      oh ok, new to me
  19. drjay1966
    Now that voodooKobra's involved, I'm really really really offended....
    1. acousticguitarist
      yes, I can relate to your offendedness

    Well, it was an unidentified flying object - which is all a UFO is. People forget that and think UFO=spacecraft.


    If it was a spacecraft - why Arcturian?

    Yes the "wise men" were Magi which like mentioned before were sometimes sorcerers, magicians, or some other similar trade.

    One does wonder why following a bright light that appears in the sky is considered wise - I mean if people did that today we would think them more silly than wise - just wondering.
    1. siralmo
      the wise part is following the right star
    2. acousticguitarist
      Barry... Merry Christmas

      It had to be Arcturian, they are a pretty friendly bunch and they didn't go much on Herod and his buddies.

      I used the word UFO only as a special affect so someone would see it. If I used Living Breathing Mobile Transport Apparatus, no one would have responded.

      Why did they follow it? It had a really nice audio system and they were dancing and singing as they went
  21. cranelegs
    my thoughts? i never did figure out what was eating gilbert grape.
    1. acousticguitarist
      It was something from the Burger Barn.
  22. Shiley
    Did they ask "Take me to you leader?"
    1. acousticguitarist
      Gosh, someone else has finally got it
    2. Shiley
      Lol! You're funny!
    3. acousticguitarist
      I hold back on these forums, i'm funnier in real life
