I saw a doco on tv just the other night about how some people from the nazi party believed that there was a suprieor Germanic race and that its they who built the pryamids, hindu temples and that stoneamig in scotland. They also believed that Germanic people came from Atlantis. They believed that certain races were slaves and others were dominant over slaves. The superior Germanic people then bred with the lower classes and it kinda fell apart and here we are. So I cant remember his name a general of some sort thought that we could return to how it once was by breeding a master race and destroying unwanted stock. in the doco it showed how a bunch of menn from the SS went around the world looking for people with Germanic traits. They went as far as India and measuresd studied and made facial casts of the Indians. This helped them determine who came from a superior line. Anyway just wanted thoughts and if anyone saw the doco please explain it better then i did.

Well, Jesse Owens pretty much proved that Germans aren't a super race of humans.

That program you saw sounds interesting. Do you remember the name?

this is a favorite subject, the occult legacy of the nazis...i've heard a few interesting tales (of which i like to call folktales), of how the nazis discovered the lineage of the nordic peoples of the earth ~ a lineage that did not originate from this world, but arrived from beyond the skies long ago.. upon discovery, hitler & the various parties dedicated their resources to restore that lineage to its original state of evolutionary perfection & eugenics, a methodology to meet those ends was created for that singular purpose...the word Aryan is a misunderstood one by many, thinking it to be only linked to racism ~ nothing is farther from its truth...simply, i learned it to be a word that describes more - the purity of perfection, the perfect being of their race ~ genetically, physically, mentally, etc.. why? perhaps to re-establish what was lost if the folktales had any measure of truth to them...perhaps they actually discovered something that gave them the motivation.. a piece of their past revealed?

now before i close, let me remind the readers that it be from bits & pieces of history that i like to delve & study into; i don't any solid answers, because lol, i wasn't there to witness the events (i wish i were there to observe, but that's another tale..). so much gray area where nazi secrets are concerned, we only get a singular view from generic history books ~ they're "bad" or, they created the holocaust......so they're "bad" - like a broken record, over & over...but from a scholarly standpoint, what they tried to achieve was amazing ~ but there also exists so many loose ends that are never fully explained, & since my curiosity gets the better of me, i don't really mind what others might think of my interests, for they are many.. after all ~ all i do is for the love of knowledge..

hope that helps you on your search..

I think your trying to find out the answer to what race? Well I heard of the race the Blonds or The Nordics. Something about Vril and Thule Society from inner earth. Hitler claimed that Germans where once the dominant race of this Earth millenias ago and set out on a mission to resurrect the majestic Aryan race or "Superior Race of the World".

No, it just means "honorable people", which has not been in use for a very long time.
Now that we are on the subject of definitions...what is your definition of amazing?

Unfortunately Herr Hitler was not an anthropologist nor does his wishes have any bearings on "real" history, afterall this here is all about alternative history right. Aryan was an old term used for Iran, The modern name for ancient Persia. The historical records of Indo-Aryan brought them no way near the german people.

I think Doktor Von Sylph is inaccurate about the historical inaccuracy of the Nazis period. After the war several scientists from Nazi germany were given amnesty in exchange for research information. Information contained within are a matter of public record, if herr Doktor really despise the American highschool curriculum, search your public library for information.

yes you are correct dune worm master. the aryans were of asiatic stock and can be found invading during the akkadian period i believe. they came from what is now known as afganistan and pakistan. they were nomadic, but settled in what is now assyria. their language, alphabet, and pantheon of gods was closely related to those of sumerian and akkadian cultures, because as they migrated westward over the hundreds of years, they would have had to migrate through the lands controlled by those empires. so what ever culture they possessed before the immigration was lost because of their contact with an advanced culture.

and also, the nazis are nothing to exhalt, and did nothing exhaltable except that which is considered evil and negative by every civilized nation on earth.

The "Aryan" stock in which Hitler based his breeding progam on came predominatly from Barvaria and Barvaria was predominatly resettled Magyars (Hungarians) who were of Finno-Urgic stock. The blond hair and blue eyes came to the Germans from Finnish and Hungarian stock and your genetic purest Aryans are the Bactrians in Afganistan who still speak a form of Proto-German.

Aryan people originates in the caucassas region. Some groups moved to India (their descendants are the founder of Mohenjodaro, so it is said), some to Greece and some to nothern area of Europe.
The Hindu mythology is quite similar to Greek mythology for that reason.

The Nazis are associated with India for this Indo-Aryan race connection. Even the Knight templars are said to have visited India to study some occult stuff (the details, I forgot. Sorry). They all were obsessed with the origin of the Aryan people, language and their thinking (including things that are occult).

Yes, I remember in a game of mine they touched on that... anyone play BloodRayne? The first one?

The Thule believed that IRL, the blonde haired, blue eyed Aryan race was supposedly superior and decended from the Atlanteans...

I also know that most of the experiments done on the Jews by Mengele and other Nazi scientists during the Holocaust were done to figure out how to genetically engineer the "Master Aryan race."

Hitler had a lot of strange beliefs and lead the nazis all over the place searching for occult artifacts and engaging in experiments. I think the source of this comes more from his obsessive delusions than any historical proof of aryan accomplishment.

I'd love to know what led him to believe the germans built the pyramids. I suspect it was some kind of backward thinking like, "Building the pyramids was one of the greatest accomplishments in history, therefore it must've been done by germans."

Madame Blavatsky was a follower of Theosophy (kinda outdated culty-philosophy). They believed that there are 7 root races in the progression of mankind, the Aryan being the 5th (Atlanteans were the 4th, preceding the Aryan). Aryan was actually subdivided into several sub-races, of which the Europeans were one. Hindus, Hellenes, and Sumerians consitituted other sub-races of Aryan. Essentially, "Aryan" was just *one* of several progressions in human evolution and did not mean it was the best. In fact, there are two more to come, based on what Theosophy teaches, after the Aryan root race has passed into history.

Hitler and others of his time of course took this to mean that only Aryans could set the stage for the next progression of humanity, ignoring the more complicated theories in Theosophy. But it was a sign of their times; everyone was into the occult at the time, and carrying swastikas and other similar symbols had been rampant since WW I. The Nazis just took that symbol and twisted it to their own end (along with an entire country).

At any rate, Theosophy is a bit wacky, but feel free to google it and you'll come up with some interesting reading material.

ironic that hitler chose 'aryan' to descibe his race of supermen as the 'aryans' originated in the hindus valley and migrated south and west to Iran and Iraq and into europe proper where they became the celts who were a dark skinned race. It was only after I studied hitler's racist policies that I realised why the nazis left nothing behind them worth admiring. Their art their architecture their writing....all naive theatrical garbage.

That is my opinion as well. What they left is a lesson in humanity. All their ridiculous policies come down to is blame someone else for their failure to win WWI, and the harsh repercussions they faced after the war. As we still do today. And Hitler did that well. To me, the only thing "amazing" about the Nazis is how easily they gained followers and how easily those followers were willing to discard their Christian values, and put Jews to death for being Jews.

Blaming illegal Mexican immigrants for job shortages. Blaming blacks for rise in crime. Especially the absurd rivalry between blacks and Jews in Brooklyn. "Who suffered more: blacks under slavery or Jews during the Holocaust?" Why does it matter who suffered MORE? Nothing will be solved by blame. Only tensions arise from the ridiclous "fight to show who has suffered the worst." What is the point? No healing occurs from this.

Ironic how everyone believes Sylph's comments are racist. From what I've read, they are only theories and info., nothing more. There is no mention of any racist comment against anyone. But, no use trying to explain - some things many will never understand..

What many people do throughout history may anger many for generations. But I'm not going to stop myself from finding out everything about what happened because they're 'bad'. Things that we do not learn in school because we are simply taught, Hitler was bad and we beat his ass. I am merely trying to find out what else went on besides the blood and gore we all learn. And I'm doing this while keeping a neutral view because it's those views that cloud our thinking and close our minds because all we think is - he is evil so anything he did was bad. I am not debating, and neither is Sylph from what I've read, whether or not Hitler is bad or good. And it's sad that many here have clouded their thinking, closed their minds, and responded negatively instead of taking this as simply knowledge and theory.

I think what Hitler did was amazing. But that doesn't mean I think what he did was good. I mean, how often do you hear of someone getting close to taking over the world? How so many followed him. So I'm quite interested in what he did because it's, like all things, more knowledge. Besides, the entire world has blood on their hands from one point or another, even making Hitler look tame when you look into the Spanish rule, or even when England had their empire. Even the US had concentration camps for the Japanese during the war, in case you didn't know, and we dropped the bomb. So take things with a neutral mind, and you'll see the point Sylph was trying to make.

And as for these replies on calling one racist - grow up... disgust.gif I'm tired of hearing those stupid remarks. Anyway, not like I care if you understand me or not.

perhaps the only one in this thread that has common sense to actually read & understand what i wrote without passing judgment so quickly ~ i thank you.. it's rather interesting, the nature of humans ~ easy to judge, easy to hate - even without without knowing...who are any of you to spite & judge me? none of you know anything about me...& to think that i'm accused of racism? because of having interest in what the nazis did on the occult level? even the moderator did nothing to bring fairness to the situation & that...that's not right, on the real..

...

to those that read this, listen well - this is a forum for the unexplained, it's why many of us are here ~ to put reason for all the mysteries that are hidden from us, or that are restricted from us by the economic powers that be.. KEEP AN OPEN MIND...& just so everyone here knows, i'm very much a minority, no where being german, nor nordic ~ so how does my words look to you now? i seek knowledge ~ perhaps my only true passion in this weirdo reality of a world, & i could really care less about events that happened many years before i was born; do i really need that kind of burden - no thanks.. one final note, to all those that "made fun" of me ~ go in peace..

this is my last thought to this thread..

jesspy, I’ve found a few links about this programme for those of us who didn’t catch it… happy.gif

Nazi Expeditions tells the bizarre and chilling story one of history's most perverse, eccentric, and frightening scientific expeditions: the Nazi's 1938 Himalayan expedition to Tibet to find a Nordic master race that was supposed to have survived the demise of the legendary Atlantis.

December 1938. A German research ship sailing under the Swastika flag glides through the Antarctic Ocean in search of stone and ice samples. Geologists are looking for evidence to support the bold "global ice theory", according to which a comet was supposed to have crashed to Earth in prehistoric times and scattered the "original Aryans" all over the world.

The true facts behind the Nazi expeditions have never been fully explained. Who financed them? Who planned them and why? The film sequences shot during the expeditions appear seemingly harmless. But behind the apparently innocent pictures were the machinations of one of the most powerful and most dangerous Nazis of all:
Heinrich Himmler, the leader of the Nazi's dreaded SS, the second-most-powerful man in the Third Reich. Without him as one of the main protagonists, the gripping story of the expeditions cannot be retold.

From his youth, Heinrich Himmler was fascinated by the world of German folklore and mythology and prehistoric research. In 1935, he founded a society for the advancement of scientific research. It was called Ahnenerbe (Ancestral Heritage) and constituted around 30 scientific departments. The expeditions within and beyond the German Reich were planned, approved, led and cartographically recorded in direct collusion with Himmler. To be ensured of financing and approval, the expeditions had to pursue an ideological objective: they were supposed to produce proof of the superiority of the German race and thus reinforce the National Socialists' ideologically founded claim to world supremacy.

The Nazi expeditions are journeys of discovery into the ideology of National Socialism, the irrational fantasies of racial insanity, the religious-like Fuhrer cult and the belief in world supremacy, conducted by serious scientists and failed individuals, adventurers and discoverers.

Nazi Expeditions describes the exploratory expeditions undertaken by the Nazis at home and abroad, and with previously unpublished library material and statements by contemporary witnesses, members of the expeditions and internationally renowned historians and scientists, for the first time throws light on the mystery of these often bizarre operations. Unpublished film shots, propaganda films, written documents and photographs from public and private archives provide incredible testimony to the expeditions that were carried out by the Third Reich.


Source

In the early 1930s, Himmler founded the Ahnenerbe, the so-called ancestral heritage foundation. Ahnenerbe researchers were supposed to provide the proof that the Germans were truly the master race. In 1938, Himmler sent a team of SS scientists, including the ornithologist Ernst Schäfer and the archaeologist Bruno Beger, to Tibet to find the origins of the Aryan race. The expedition reached Lhasa and carried out a number of different research projects as well as making a film for propaganda purposes back in Germany. The group was recalled before war broke out and although other planned expeditions to South America and North Africa were shelved, the work of the Ahnenerbe went on during the war. As well as illuminating Himmler's mystic and increasingly bizarre beliefs and crackpot theories, the program looks at how scientists like Schäfer and Beger dealt with the Nazi ideological machine.

If you read the post in context, you would perhaps not make such an accusational post. hmm.gif Nazi topics are always going to be a slightly taboo and so we must be sensitive when dealing with them, and it doesn’t help when this sort of comment is posted.

Comments like this are hardly constructive to this thread and serve only to frustrate readers.

Sylph, I for one think your post has been the most informative in regard to this topic. From what I’ve read, the documentary didn’t deal with where true Aryans came from; it dealt with how the Nazis set out on their own self-righteous ‘scientific’ expeditions to justify to themselves how they were a superior race. I think it’s an interesting topic and one that is well worth a discussion, so lets leave out the name-calling and get this topic back on track please.

Of course killing is only wrong depending on the reason, however Stalin did kill over 10 million innocent people.
For example he basically started a war with the countryside. Millions of peasants were killed/executed or worked to death on farms that had been brought together under the communist ideal of Collectivisation.
Millions of peasants became slaves, millions died.

Stalin also wiped out anyone who his paranoid fantasies told him was plotting against him or was a threat to him, this means much of the political opposition and his own in mass party purges, where often people were killed under false pretences and false accusations.

This is an interesting subject. I have studied WWII and the holocaust, the occult link, and some other links to the subject as well for years and years. For one, Stalin and Hitlers Nazi's BOTH killed millions for whatever reasons they had, it was wrong. The people were innocent. Yes, many of the things the Nazi's did were amazing, but also at the expense of innocence and blood. Things they did were building the atomic bomb...well, attempting to. And they made aircraft of superior design, and so forth. They would have succeeded had things not gone awry. The medical intelligence they acquired through the sickening experiments with live human subjects were apparently worth enough to grant them a free ticket out of punishment. I do not, and will never agree with the mass slaughter of people, and the footage I've seen horrifies me and saddens me tremendously and shows that the Nazi regime was evil, and was bad no matter what they're intention of building a pure race was. And so too was Stalins slaughter, and the slaughters of Bosnia/Serbia, and Rwanda, and so forth. There is no right reason for murdering so many innocent people. But I have read some interesting POST war things that run along the lines of conspiracy theory, and it seems well founded. Maybe the Nazi's weren't done. One can only hope that such a delusional idea would have been put to rest, and I wish America and German Nazi/skinhead youth would cease and embrace the idea of freedom and that no race is "pure" or more superior. It's funny that he was working with Japan...they weren't blonde/blue eyed. Did he consider them inferior? Or were they just pawns in his giant chess game?

Yes, basically if Hitler would have won then he would have wiped out his Japanese and Italian allies too... >>

Pawns most likely. I asked a history teacher of mine, who claimed he was of Jewish-German heritage and also said he had family who were on both sides of the Holocaust. I asked him, "How did Hitler justify an Alliance of white supremacy with the describably 'non-Aryan' Japanese people?" He replied, "Hitler told his people that the Japanese were the Aryans of the East." blink.gif I spent the rest of that class kind of blanked out. Not because Hitler actually said THAT, but because his followers went along with it.
