THE DOGON SAID THE NOMO BROUGHT THEM A FIVE-FINGERED PLANT
THE DOGON SAID THE NOMO BROUGHT THEM A FIVE-FINGERED PLANT
The dogon said that the nommo gave them a five fingered plant; the plant has no family members; it’s one of the very few plants with a clear male and female difference; it’s the only plant with genes similar to that of a human.

Did Aliens bring Cannabis from Sirius B??
This is just a really curious excerpt taken from Jason Kings “The Cannabible III“
Are You Sirius?
Take a look at the word cannabis. Ever wonder what it means? Cannabis is a Greek word, though its root is African. In Greek, canna means ‘canine’ or ‘dog’ and bis or bi is the number two. So cannabis is the ‘two dog plant’! That in itself is interesting to me. But the pot thickens.
There is a cannabis-loving tribe in Mali, West Africa called the Dogon tribe. A fairly well-documented group, the Dogons were visited by Herodotus, a Greek traveler and chronicler, around 300 BC. He was fortunate enough to have visited the Dogons during a year-longcelebration that took place every 50 years. Explaining their celebration, the Dogons pointed to the brightest star in the Winter sky, Sirius, and said it was the ‘Two-Dog Star’ and that it was the home of the ‘two-dog plant’, cannabis. The two-dog plant, they said, was brought to our planet from the Goddess from the Two Dog Star. Their yearlong celebration was in honor of that star.
All of this would be easy to dismiss if not for the fact the Dogons possessed specific knowledge about the Sirian system for thousands of years before scientists with modern telescopes and equipment could catch up and prove them right. The Dogons had specific knowledge about Sirius B, a white dwarf star, which they call Po Tolo. They knew that it was white, that it was extremely small, and that its the heaviest star in its grouping. They were able to describe its elliptical orbit with Sirius A, its 50 year orbital period, and the fact that the star rotated on its own axis. Sirius B is invisible to the naked eye abd is so difficult to observe, even through a telescope, no pictures were taken until 1970.
They also described a third star in the Sirius system, which they called Emme Ya. In 1995, when two French astronomers published the results of a multi-year study that was apparently a small, red dwarf star within the Sirius star system, the Dogon idea of there being a Sirius C, aka Emme Ya, was suddenly taken much more seriously. If the Dogons were correct in all of their other knowledge about Sirius, why would they not be dead on with their claims of cannabis being from Sirius. It is, after all, named after that “Two-Dog Star’
Note: The Dog Star was highly venerated in ancient Mesopotamia, where its old Akkadian name was Mil-lik-ud (Dog Star Of the Sun) and in Babylonia, where it was called Kakkab-lik-ku (Star Of The Dog). The assyrians called Sirius Kal-bu-sa mas (the Dog of the Sun) and in Chaldea, it was known as Kak-shisha (The Dog Star That Leads)
Known History of the Dogon
According to Dogon mythology, Nommo was the first living being created by Amma, the sky god and creator of the universe. He soon multiplied to become six pairs of twins. [This is a metaphor for our original 12-strand DNA. Our present physical DNA contains 2 strands which hold the genetic codes for our physical evolvement.] One twin rebelled against the order established by Amma, [This is a metaphor for one source/soul splitting into two polarities – yin /yang, when it enters into the electro-magnectic energies of third dimension] thereby destabilizing the universe. In order to purify the cosmos and restore its order, Amma sacrificed another of the Nommo, whose body was cut up and scattered throughout the universe.
This distribution of the parts of the Nommo’s body is seen as the source for the proliferation of Binu shrines throughout the Dogon region. The Dogon say that their astronomical knowledge was given to them by the Nommo. The Dogon elder, Ogotemelli, describes them variously as having the upper part as a man and the lower portion as snake; or as having a ram’s head with serpent body. Author Robert Temple describes the Nommo as amphibious beings sent to Earth from the Sirius star system for the benefit of humankind. They look like Merfolk; Mermaids and Mermen. [Metaphor: amphibius – referring to the flow of the collective unconscious – creational source]. The Dogon, call this spaceship ‘Pelu Tolo’ or ‘Star of the Tenth Moon’. These aliens supposedly came from the Sirian star system. Their spaceship spiraled down from the sky. It landed somewhere to the northeast of the Dogon’s present homeland. There was a great noise and wind. The ship landed on three legs, skidded to a stop, scoring the ground.
Four legs appeared and dragged the vessel to a hollow, which filled with water until the vessel floated. At the same time a new star was seen in the sky, which possibly was a large space ship. The star was described by the Dogon as having a circle of reddish rays around it. This circle of rays was like a spreading spot yet it still remaining the same size. There is a Dogon drawing of the spaceship hovering in the sky, waiting for the Nommo who landed on the Earth. It represents three stages of ‘Pelu Tolo’ when it is spurting different amounts of blood or flames [as if it crash landed]. They called the Nommo ‘Masters of the Water’, ‘The Monitors’, ‘The Teachers or Instructors’, ‘Saviors’, and ‘Spiritual Guardians. The Dogons believe their gods are already here.

Tch,that's a bunch of bs.all plants show sex one way or the other.I'll admit there astronomy is cool but not mind blowing.I love weed but let's not get too crazy here.it's not an alien species sent here to save mankind.damn give me some of that dogon weed dagnabit
In the words of Ace Ventura,fiction can be fun! Im not trying to be an asshole.bur let's be real tea here,like cereal.no sayin?

NOMMO SKY GODS / FIERY RED ARK / OCCAM'S RAZOR
NOMMO SKY GODS / FIERY RED ARK / OCCAM'S RAZOR
AFRICA 3400 BC The precise origin of the Dogon, like those of many other ancient cultures, is undetermined. Their civilization emerged, in much the same manner as ancient Sumer, both sharing tales of their creation by gods who came from the sky in space ships. The alien Nommo creator gods were the first Hogon - a major spiritual leader - of the Dogon people who allegedly will return one day. According to the Dogon, all of their knowledge originated from fishlike beings that came from “Nyan Tolo” which is the satellite of “Emme Ya” in the Sirius System around 3000 B.C. These beings are referred to as “Nommos” and they arrived to the Dogon in a “Red Ark.“ As these beings landed, there was fire, smoke and deafening roaring that resembled huge rocks crashing into each other. The Dogon call it “Nyan Tolo,“ basically translated to as: The Star of the Woman.
The Nommos descended from the sky in a vessel accompanied by flames and thunder. After arriving, the Nommos created a reservoir of water and subsequently dove into the water. The Dogon legends state that the Nommos required a watery environment in which to live. According to the myth related to Griaule and Dieterlen: "The Nommo divided his body among men to feed them; that is why it is also said that as the universe "had drunk of his body," the Nommo also made men drink. He gave all his teachings and wisdom of life principles to human beings." The Nommo was crucified on a tree, but was resurrected and returned to his home world. Dogon legend has it that he will return in the future to revisit the Earth in a human form.
Zooming on Sirius & Sirius B (2005)
The Brightest star(s) in the sky is Sirius without a doubt, the name Sirius, comes from the Greek language and is translated as the glowing one or bright one. And what might appear as a single star is in fact a double or even possibly triple star system according to observations made in the 1920’s.
Figure 2 An ancient petroglyph drawing depicting the heliacal rising of Sirius and the sun joined together at this moment.
Dogon star map showing the very elliptical orbit of Sirius B, a white dwarf companion to Sirius A that had only been discovered in 1844 and that is not visible with the naked eye. According to Ogotemmêli this was lore that stretched back generations. Apparently our scientists are only just now beginning to accept what ancient people worldwide, such as the Dogon tribe in Africa, already knew thousands of years before us. According to the Dogon, the “instructor” gods descended from Sirius and brought great knowledge and wisdom.
LIST OF CORRESPONDENCES PROVING ALIENS BROUGHT POT TO EARTH:
1.) The Dogon reportedly related to Griaule and Dieterlen a belief that the Nommos were inhabitants of a world circling the star Sirius.
2.) The Dogon priests said that Sirius had a companion star that was invisible to the human eye.
3.) They also stated that the star moved in a 50-year elliptical orbit around Sirius.
4.) They it was small. The Dogon name for Sirius B is Po Tolo. It means star - tolo and smallest seed - po. By this name they describe the star's relative smallness.
5.) They said that it was incredibly heavy, claiming that it is "the heaviest star."
6.) They said that it rotated on its axis.
7.) They said that it is white in color.
SUMMARY: The Dogon thusly attribute to Sirius B it's three principal properties as a white dwarf: small, heavy, white.
Additionally, the Dogon legends prefigured the prehistoric aliens theme presented in the sci-fi movie, Prometheus. That's where two investigators, Shaw and Holloway, are searching for signs of the Ancient Astronauts - they call them Engineers - who visited Earth before recorded history, and throughout the world they discover paleolithic imagery that illustrates a six-world star system, much like Ogotemmêli’s drawing supposedly mapped out the three star Sirius system. An analogy of the Ogotemmêli’s ancient star map guiding humanity back to their Creator's home, is how the characters in the movie follow their map all the way to LV-223, a moon orbiting a ringed world where they discovered the truth about the Engineers.
OCCAM'S RAZOR
Let's see how the swipe of Occam's Razor cuts to directly the root of the burning question: Did Aliens bring Cannabis from Sirius B?
I find the remarkable above sevent-point lineup of correspondences far too intriguing to casually disregard and dismiss. Now, if there were only a couple of similarities, then, statistically speaking, you could readily chalk them up to the law of averages. However, the numerous matches found between ancient Dogon Intel and that of recent mainstream astrophysics discoveries, (as has been evidenced), clearly establishes a substantial preponderance of positive cross-references of unassailable credibility.
Occam's Razor says "It’s elementary, because the simplest explanation is usually the correct one."
Moreover, let's not forget that the most straightforward rationale, stripped of elaboration, is usually the correct one. Who could argue with that? Despite the convoluted non sequitur after non sequitur proffered by dedicated human instruments of mainstream speculative science, what could be more simple than just admitting for once and all that aliens brought weed to planet Earth?
Detectives use a different means, instead of opinions, to deduce who's the likeliest suspect in a murder case -- you know, the butler did it. Doctors *use it, also, to determine the illness behind a set of symptoms.
This line of reasoning is called Occam's razor. It's used in a wide variety of ways throughout the world as a means to slice through a problem or situation and eliminate unnecessary elements. But what we call the razor is a little different than what its author originally wrote. There are two parts that are considered the basis of Occam's razor, and they were originally written in Latin:
• The Principle of Plurality - Plurality should not be posited without necessity.
• The Principle of Parsimony - It is pointless to do with more what is done with less.
Taken together, they represent the basis of humanity's investigation into the universe, and the way we see our environment is largely based upon Occam's razor. There's no telling what kind of world we would live in today without Occam's razor. Would we have the Internet? Would we have inoculations?
Consider simple systems in nature, like viruses and plants, and their ability to carry out complex tasks such as infection and photosynthesis. We value these simple models. And when it comes to man-made systems, we tend to base structures upon what we already know works -- the simplest explanation to us -- like computer memory modeled on our own brain processes. All of which points to the principles of plurality and parsimony.
However, one of the key things that Occam's razor reveals is the subjectivity with which we view the universe. Sure the sky is blue, we know that by looking at it, but what shade of blue is it exactly? Anyone who has ever engaged in a debate over whether a dark-colored sock is black or navy can appreciate the bias of our worldview and how it affects our decisions.
I conclude with this thought: Although Occam's razor can become distorted and some prize it while others shun this simple, yet complex idea, it is still an excellent problem-solving formula. Through it's guidance, I am confident that if an unbiased investigator applies it's keen edge to the question of DID ALIENS BRING WEED TO PLANET EARTH? they will slice through any and all vacuous, discursive clutter to see for themselves the inevitable truth that, yes, indeed, ALIENS BROUGHT WEED TO PLANET EARTH!

DID ALIENS BRING POT TO EARTH?

DID ALIENS BRING POT TO EARTH?
Thoughts of outer space often come to mind while smoking. There’s something cosmic about your mind being transported to a new plane of thought; the euphoric feelings, the stress of the day magically melting away. Is there a reason for this? Could cannabis and the universe be somehow linked in a deeper, more significant way?
*adjusts tin foil hat* Let’s begin, shall we?
Brands like Lil Mayo, everyone’s favorite alien, and Seattle-based Dawg Star have invited the astral connection. The name “Dawg Star” comes from the history of the stars Sirius A and B, and the supposed connection to ancient aliens. Yes, those ancient aliens. According to legend, the Dogon tribe of West Africa called cannabis the “two-dog plant,” as they believed it was brought to Earth by a goddess descended from the brightest stars in the sky, Sirius A and B, the “two-dog star.” Only Sirius A can be seen with the naked eye, however, leading to multiple theories that the isolated Dogon tribe could only have known about the existence of Sirius B if they had, in fact, been visited by aliens.
In his 1986 work Broca’s Brain: Reflections on the Romance of Science, Carl Sagan dispelled the myth of ancient visitors by arguing that although the Dogon’s knowledge of Sirius B, as well as their knowledge of other planetary goings-on, could simply be through observation and clear skies—after all, the Greeks did not have the technology we have today, yet noted extraordinary cosmic phenomena—or perhaps was imparted by European visitors.
However, Native American author Hyapatia Lee has also written extensively about the idea that pot was a gift from extraterrestrials, stating that “[m]any tribes across the Americas have legends of aliens, or Star People, bringing cannabis to this planet. The Cherokee say that the Star People came from a planet with the same name as the Cherokee word for pot, gatunlati.”
Could cannabis have been introduced to Earth to ‘spice things up'?
Contact with aliens seems too far-fetched to believe. Yet even pioneering scientist Nikola Tesla concluded that a “series of beeps” picked up during a 1899 experiment, originally intended to determine if information “could be transmitted over long distances using high-altitude stations,” was proof of contact. He concluded that “[w]e have a message from another world, unknown and remote. It reads: one…two…three…” Later replications of Tesla’s experiment showed that “the signal was in fact caused by the moon Io passing through Jupiter’s magnetic field,” but scientifically-minded Tesla’s acceptance of alien contact is significant.
Theories of ancient aliens coming down from the heavens to bring us the gift of pot are possibly nothing more than a half-baked notion, based in wishful thinking and pseudoscience. That said—sorry, I need to adjust my tin foil hat—theeere we go. Ok, I’m back. That said, if aliens gave Earthlings anything, why wouldn’t it be pot? And if they did bestow their celestial cannabis upon on us, what was their end-goal?
The idea of supreme beings watching us from afar isn’t new. The theory of deism reigned supreme among intellectuals during the period of Enlightenment in the 18th century, a philosophical idea that suggests God created the universe and then stepped back to observe his creation. Deists believe that a supreme being does exist, but has no interest in our day-to-day matters. The watchmaker analogy, which posits that any sort of design, such as the universe, must imply a designer, paints a similar portrait of an impersonal God—one who sets the wheels in motion, but retains no control after the mechanism begins ticking.
Just as deists believe that God created the universe only to become an impartial observer, perhaps aliens imparted the gift of weed on us merely to witness the consequences, both positive and negative. After all, who wouldn’t love to watch history unfold, a new society change and grow throughout the ages? The idea has been explored countless times, most famously with the 1962 Twilight Zone episode “The Little People,” which was then parodied by both The Simpsons and South Park. Tiny microcosms of society rapidly evolve before the main characters’ eyes, with the less-than-cheery message that even in these new societies, history repeats itself.
South Park similarly explores the idea of aliens observing humans in “Cancelled,” the first episode of the show’s seventh season.
The boys meet with alien TV executives, who rather dispassionately declare that they’re going to “cancel” (i.e. destroy) their media project—Earth—because it became too boring. If something like that were real—being observed as part of a Truman Show-esque reality experiment—could cannabis have been introduced to Earth to “spice things up”? Or did they hope cannabis would calm our violent ways and promote peace, love and introspection?
If cannabis was a gift from our alien friends, I imagine they’re discouraged that the plant hasn’t been legalized across the globe. After all, it’s just a plant. They must be wondering if we even appreciate their generous offering. If we legalized it, would they finally come down and congratulate us—would we crack the code they’ve been waiting for, like Roy playing the correct notes at the end of Close Encounters of the Third Kind? Would the sky open up, and aliens come down to take a hit with us?
For further reading on the subject—because, let’s face it, I know you’re formulating your own theories—check out Robert K. G. Temple’s The Sirius Mystery, binge watch some Ancient Aliens, or look up at the sky the next time you smoke, and allow your own theories to unfold.
Who knows, you may receive a visit from above. And don’t forget to puff puff pass with your new alien friend—after all, dealer’s choice.

Could cannabis and the universe be somehow linked in a deeper, more significant way?
*adjusts tin foil hat* Let’s begin, shall we?
Brands like Lil Mayo, everyone’s favorite alien, and Seattle-based Dawg Star have invited the astral connection. The name “Dawg Star” comes from the history of the stars Sirius A and B, and the supposed connection to ancient aliens. Yes, those ancient aliens. According to legend, the Dogon tribe of West Africa called cannabis the “two-dog plant,” as they believed it was brought to Earth by a goddess descended from the brightest stars in the sky, Sirius A and B, the “two-dog star.” Only Sirius A can be seen with the naked eye, however, leading to multiple theories that the isolated Dogon tribe could only have known about the existence of Sirius B if they had, in fact, been visited by aliens.
In his 1986 work Broca’s Brain: Reflections on the Romance of Science, Carl Sagan dispelled the myth of ancient visitors by arguing that although the Dogon’s knowledge of Sirius B, as well as their knowledge of other planetary goings-on, could simply be through observation and clear skies—after all, the Greeks did not have the technology we have today, yet noted extraordinary cosmic phenomena—or perhaps was imparted by European visitors.
However, Native American author Hyapatia Lee has also written extensively about the idea that pot was a gift from extraterrestrials, stating that “[m]any tribes across the Americas have legends of aliens, or Star People, bringing cannabis to this planet. The Cherokee say that the Star People came from a planet with the same name as the Cherokee word for pot, gatunlati.”
Could cannabis have been introduced to Earth to ‘spice things up'?
Contact with aliens seems too far-fetched to believe. Yet even pioneering scientist Nikola Tesla concluded that a “series of beeps” picked up during a 1899 experiment, originally intended to determine if information “could be transmitted over long distances using high-altitude stations,” was proof of contact. He concluded that “[w]e have a message from another world, unknown and remote. It reads: one…two…three…” Later replications of Tesla’s experiment showed that “the signal was in fact caused by the moon Io passing through Jupiter’s magnetic field,” but scientifically-minded Tesla’s acceptance of alien contact is significant.
Theories of ancient aliens coming down from the heavens to bring us the gift of pot are possibly nothing more than a half-baked notion, based in wishful thinking and pseudoscience. That said—sorry, I need to adjust my tin foil hat—theeere we go. Ok, I’m back. That said, if aliens gave Earthlings anything, why wouldn’t it be pot? And if they did bestow their celestial cannabis upon on us, what was their end-goal?
The idea of supreme beings watching us from afar isn’t new. The theory of deism reigned supreme among intellectuals during the period of Enlightenment in the 18th century, a philosophical idea that suggests God created the universe and then stepped back to observe his creation. Deists believe that a supreme being does exist, but has no interest in our day-to-day matters. The watchmaker analogy, which posits that any sort of design, such as the universe, must imply a designer, paints a similar portrait of an impersonal God—one who sets the wheels in motion, but retains no control after the mechanism begins ticking.
Just as deists believe that God created the universe only to become an impartial observer, perhaps aliens imparted the gift of weed on us merely to witness the consequences, both positive and negative. After all, who wouldn’t love to watch history unfold, a new society change and grow throughout the ages? The idea has been explored countless times, most famously with the 1962 Twilight Zone episode “The Little People,” which was then parodied by both The Simpsons and South Park. Tiny microcosms of society rapidly evolve before the main characters’ eyes, with the less-than-cheery message that even in these new societies, history repeats itself.
South Park similarly explores the idea of aliens observing humans in “Cancelled,” the first episode of the show’s seventh season.
The boys meet with alien TV executives, who rather dispassionately declare that they’re going to “cancel” (i.e. destroy) their media project—Earth—because it became too boring. If something like that were real—being observed as part of a Truman Show-esque reality experiment—could cannabis have been introduced to Earth to “spice things up”? Or did they hope cannabis would calm our violent ways and promote peace, love and introspection?
If cannabis was a gift from our alien friends, I imagine they’re discouraged that the plant hasn’t been legalized across the globe. After all, it’s just a plant. They must be wondering if we even appreciate their generous offering. If we legalized it, would they finally come down and congratulate us—would we crack the code they’ve been waiting for, like Roy playing the correct notes at the end of Close Encounters of the Third Kind? Would the sky open up, and aliens come down to take a hit with us?
For further reading on the subject—because, let’s face it, I know you’re formulating your own theories—check out Robert K. G. Temple’s The Sirius Mystery, binge watch some Ancient Aliens, or look up at the sky the next time you smoke, and allow your own theories to unfold.
Who knows, you may receive a visit from above. And don’t forget to puff puff pass with your new alien friend—after all, dealer’s choice.

This is billiant , I love seeing new ideas and beliefs on this thread better than listening to an uneducated jellyfish waffle on

I'm going to spank you brats soundly and send you to bed without beer and pot. Your supper's on the table... eat it and STFU.
