Like the Five Olympic Rings from which they draw their color and inspiration, the Five Friendlies will serve as the Official Mascots of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, carrying a message of friendship and peace--and blessings from China--to children all over the world.

Designed to express the playful qualities of five little children who form an intimate circle of friends, the Five Friendlies also embody the natural characteristics of four of China's most popular animals--the Fish, the Panda, the Tibetan Antelope, the Swallow--and the Olympic Flame.

In China's traditional culture and art, the fish and water designs are symbols of prosperity and harvest. And so Beibei carries the blessing of prosperity. A fish is also a symbol of surplus in Chinese culture, another measure of a good year and a good life. The ornamental lines of the water-wave designs are taken from well-known Chinese paintings of the past. Among the Five Friendlies, Beibei is known to be gentle and pure. Strong in water sports, she reflects the blue Olympic ring.

Each of the Friendlies has a rhyming two-syllable name--a traditional way of expressing affection for children in China. Beibei is the Fish, Jingjing is the Panda, Huanhuan is the Olympic Flame, Yingying is the Tibetan Antelope and Nini is the Swallow.

When you put their names together--Bei Jing Huan Ying Ni--they say "Welcome to Beijing," offering a warm invitation that reflects the mission of the Five Friendlies as young ambassadors for the Olympic Games.

The Five Friendlies also embody both the landscape and the dreams and aspirations of people from every part of the vast country of China. In their origins and their headpieces, you can see the five elements of nature--the sea, forest, fire, earth and sky--all stylistic rendered in ways that represent the deep traditional influences of Chinese folk art and ornamentation.

Spreading Traditional Chinese Blessings Wherever They Go

In the ancient culture of China, there is a grand tradition of spreading blessings through signs and symbols. Each of the Five Friendlies symbolizes a different blessing--and will honor this tradition by carrying their blessings to the children of the world. Prosperity, happiness, passion, health and good luck will be spread to every continent as the Five Friendlies carry their invitation to Beijing 2008 to every part of the globe.

At the heart of their mission--and through all of their work--the Five Friendlies will seek to unite the world in peace and friendship through the Olympic spirit. Dedicated to helping Beijing 2008 spread its theme of One World, One Dream to every continent, the Five Friendlies reflect the deep desire of the Chinese people to reach out to the world in friendship through the Games--and to invite every man, woman and child to take part in the great celebration of human solidarity that China will host in the light of the flame in 2008.

Water

In China's traditional culture and art, the fish and water designs are symbols of prosperity and harvest. And so Beibei carries the blessing of prosperity. A fish is also a symbol of surplus in Chinese culture, another measure of a good year and a good life.

The ornamental lines of the water-wave designs are taken from well-known Chinese paintings of the past. Among the Five Friendlies, Beibei is known to be gentle and pure. Strong in water sports, she reflects the blue Olympic ring.

Earth

Jingjing makes children smile--and that's why he brings the blessing of happiness wherever he

goes. You can see his joy in the charming naivety of his dancing pose and the lovely wave of his black and white fur. As a national treasure and a protected species, pandas are adored by people

everywhere. The lotus designs in Jingjing's headdress, which are inspired by the porcelain paintings of the Song Dynasty (A.D.960-1234), symbolize the lush forest and the harmonious relationship between man and nature. Jingjing was chosen to represent our desire to protect

nature's gifts--and to preserve the beauty of nature for all generations. Jingjing is charmingly naive and optimistic. He is an athlete noted for strength who represents the black Olympic ring.

Fire

In the intimate circle of Friendlies, Huanhuan is the big brother. He is a child of fire, symbolizing the Olympic Flame and the passion of sport--and passion is the blessing he bestows. Huanhuan stands in the center of Friendlies as the core embodiment of the Olympic spirit. And while he inspires all with the passion to run faster, jump higher and be stronger, he is also open and inviting. Wherever the light of Huanhuan shines, the inviting warmth of Beijing 2008--and the wishful blessings of the Chinese people--can be felt. The firery designs of his head ornament are drawn from the famed Dunhuang murals--with just a touch of China's traditional lucky designs. Huanhuan is outgoing and enthusiastic. He excels at all the ball games and represents the red Olympic ring.

Light

Like all antelopes, Yingying is fast and agile and can swiftly cover great stretches of land as he races across the earth. A symbol of the vastness of China's landscape, the antelope carries the blessing of health, the strength of body that comes from harmony with nature. Yingying's flying pose captures the essence of a species unique to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, one of the first animals put under protection in China. The selection of the Tibetan Antelope reflects Beijing commitment to a Green Olympics. His head ornament incorporates several decorative styles from the Qinghai-Tibet and Sinkiang cultures and the ethnic design traditions of Western China. Strong in track and field events, Yingying is a quick-witted and agile boy who represents the yellow Olympic ring.

Air

Every spring and summer, the children of Beijing have flown beautiful kites on the currents of wind that blow through the capital. Among the kite designs, the golden-winged swallow is traditionally one of the most popular. Nini's figure is drawn from this grand tradition of flying designs. Her golden wings symbolize the infinite sky and spread good-luck as a blessing wherever she flies. Swallow is also pronounced "yan" in Chinese, and Yanjing is what Beijing was called as an ancient capital city. Among the Friendlies, Nini is as innocent and joyful as a swallow. She is strong in gymnastics and represents the green Olympic ring.

The Great Wall of Ch'i Na

When Linking the Four Corners of the Two Worlds,

The Corners are Connected Spiritually by Hidden Forces in the Holistic Structure

Official lyrics (current and original) English translation

Arise! All who refuse to be slaves! Let our flesh and blood become our new Great Wall!

As the Chinese nation faces its greatest peril, All forcefully expend their last cries.

Arise! Arise! Arise! May our million hearts beat as one, Brave the enemy's fire, March on! Brave the enemy's fire, March on!

March on! March on! On!

Rev 17:9-12 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and

INTELLIGENT DESIGN REVEALS THE CORNERS OF CREATION The True Creation has Six Windows and Eight Corners Without a Center

The Eight Corners are Fixed by the Four Invisible Links to Opposing Corners These Links are the God Links Defined by the Holistic Structure

Rather than by the Disconnection of Opposing Corners The Free Will is the Only Entity that can Connect the Corners

When Free Will acts to connect the opposing corners, Free Will ceases to be free.

Horus is the Light of the World and the Original Structure Linking the Eight Corners The Four Links of the Corners are the Sons of Horus, Water, Earth, Air, Fire

The Sixth Sense is Opposite the Light and it is the Shadow Side of Rational Creation On the Shadow Side of Rational Creation there is no Light of the World

The Shadow Side of Creation is the Forbidden City within which is the Holistic All Let our flesh and blood become our new Great Wall! May our million hearts beat as one.

Epi Log of the Great Wall of Ch'i Na

Let our flesh and blood become our new Great Wall! May our million hearts beat as one.

The utterance of speech in the heart is like a fire. There will be built the Wall of the Ruler.

And justice will come into its place, while wrongdoing is driven out. The learned man will pour out water for me,

when he sees what I have spoken come to pass.

The National Anthem of China reveals that it is a United States of Chinese Minds. But, there is a fundamental problem with the Soul of China that is ubiquitous throughout the One World. The idea that the Soul is Rational is the problem. The Friendlies and the Flag of China all tell us that the Chinese have discovered Fire. But, the image of the antelope of Yingying is also the ego of greatness of consciousness for which cognition has yet to be turned on. Prometheus brought Fire to the Greeks, and the evidence is clear that Prometheus, under the name Huan, brought Fire to the Chinese.

The Greeks saw Prometheus with an eagle after his gall. The purpose of Fire is to bring the light. When the Fire becomes the Light Bringer and does not bow to the Light, then the Light Bringer is Lucifer, as darkness prevails. That is when the unmitigated gall must be removed. But, this is an eternal process, and the mortal human never loses the Fire that he is the discoverer of Fire who saved the World from its own shadow.

Page 17: The Official Mascots of the Beijing 2008 Olympic …...Friendlies will serve as the Official Mascots of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, carrying a message of friendship and peace--and

If Prometheus had not stolen Fire from Heaven, and created it within himself, then he would not have the eagle at his liver attempting to devour the unmitigated gall. To create is to be in the Image and Likeness of God. We cannot create without an imagination. Nor can we create what we do not first choose to like. If we like what we see, we become creative. But, where all the disciples of Prometheus fail is in realizing that they were give the right to create. There had to be a place where in the Prometheans could practice the deception of the shadows caused by firebrands in their own caves of self identity. This is the shadow tale of Plato’s Cave and the tangled hierarchies of artworks of Maurits Cornelis Escher.

When civilized people attempt to make the soul a cube they are in the act of repression of the sphere. Throughout the history of the civilization the Asiatics have attempted to rationalize the circle and the sphere. This can only be done within a Blocked Head. The only place where Light can exist is where the Shadow ceases to exist. Thus, the Overburden of the Great Wall is the Will of God and the shape of the soul is a square pyramid whose perimeter is to its height what the height is to the radius of a circle of the same perimeter.

I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

At the time of Snefru, Ch’i Na was the Spirit of the Great Mother The Great Pyramid of Giza was constructed by his sons as a Soul Symbol,

In which its own shadow vanishes with Righteous Rapture, As the Square Shadow Collapses the center of a Great Sphere appears,

The radius of which is the height of the Cosmic Rapture of Soul Salvation. Arise! All who refuse to be slaves! Let our flesh and blood become our new Great Wall! As the Chinese nation faces its greatest peril, All forcefully expend their last cries. Arise!

It is a Great Leap from the Great Sphinx to the Light of the World but it has been done before.

It is time for Ying to meet Yang. Fear of the Asiatics has lasted well over 5,000 years. For Snefru’s advisor, Nefer-rohu spoke the cosmic words regarding men who attempt to place the Cosmic Sphere in a Great Walled Cube with the phallus of rational control. Propaganda is the firebrand of all who seek control for the sake of "Love Me!" and "Kill Him!" The Nefer-rohu prophesy was aimed at the Mesopotamians, and the spirit of the prophesy is constructed on the northern regions of China as a Great Wall of the Ruler, conceived by the original Ch'in dynasty, where the peoples of what was to become modern China were confronted by nomadic Asiatics, exactly as had been prophesied by Nefer-rohu for Ancient Egypt. These same Asiatics came west under the rule of Genghis Khan and decimated many cultures and placed the religion of Islam into bondage.

The modern tangled hierarchy of socialism is that the Great Mother within the Forbidden City will give the sustenance from her breast to all the children through the ministers of her wealth. All will have a single heart and a single soul. To accomplish this goal of Oneness of Heart required a Great Wall on the northern borders and within the hearts and minds of the people. To build the wall of bricks hundreds of thousands of people would need to dedicate their lives over a dozen centuries. To build the wall of words the rulers would need to entangle the hierarchy of the mind soul of the people in the propaganda that seemed to be what they wanted to hear. “Let our flesh and blood become our new Great Wall, as the Chinese nation faces its greatest peril.” These words capture the heart and place it in a Perfect Fitting Box so that the soul can be saved from the irrational circle of worldly self esteem. The key soul denying word is peril. Without peril in the offing, no heart would sell its soul.

Over the last three decades the Lords of the Forbidden City have begun the process of acknowledgment within the hearts and minds of the people that peril is a lie based upon False Expectations Appearing Real (FEAR). This acknowledgement will eventually turn on the True Light of the World at the Forbidden City, provided that the Lords of the Forbidden City do not back off from the peril of individual enterprise. The greatness of the Chinese Peoples will thrive if the spirits of the Friendlies truly mean Bei Jing Huan Ying Ni and that does not grow into the Great Wall of the World ruled from the Central Committee. The Earth cannot be fitted into a perfect fitting box. The whole of material creation is an irrational form of correctness. We do not consume that which provides all we have. Rather, when we become self centered, whether a person or a nation, we destroy the relationship between the man-child and Mother Nature. Civilization has one fundamental hidden irrational goal. It desires to cause Mother Nature to bow to the self edifying propaganda of Civilization.

It is a great accomplishment for Yingying to leap from the Sphinx to the Great Pyramid so as to rise to the apex where there is no shadow, being himself the Light of the World. But, the Perfect Fitting box that contains the Overburden of the Chinese Peoples must be removed if the Light of the World is to come as the Great Man in Nefer-rohu’s prophesy, “When justice will come into its place, while wrongdoing is driven out.”

Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, “Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.” Matthew 1:22-23

The Prophecy of Nefer-rohu http://www.eyeofsiloam.com/NeferRohu/nfrrohu3.html#0r

Now it happened that the majesty of the King of Upper and Lower Egypt: Snefru, the triumphant, was the beneficent king in this entire land. On one of these days it happened that the official council of the residence city entered into the great house to offer greeting. Then they went out, that they might offer greetings, according to their daily procedure. Then his majesty said to the seal-bearer who was at his side: "go and bring me the official council of the residence city, which has gone forth hence to offer greetings on this day." They were ushered in to him immediately. Then his majesty said to them: "people, behold, I have caused you to be called to have you seek out for me a son of yours who is wise, or a brother of yours who is competent, or a friend of yours who has performed a good deed, one who

may say to me a few fine words or choice speeches, at the hearing of which my soul may be entertained." Then they said before his majesty, "a great lector-priest of Bastet, O Sovereign, our lord, whose name is Nefer-rohu—he is a commoner valiant with his arm, a scribe competent with his fingers; he is a man of rank, who has more property than any peer of his. Would that he might be permitted to see his majesty." Then his majesty said: "go and bring him to me!" Then his majesty said: "come, pray, Nefer-rohu, my friend, that thou mayest say to me a few fine words or choice speeches, at the hearing of which my majesty may be entertained!" … I shall speak of what is before my face; I cannot foretell what has not come. … Foes have arisen in the cast, and Asiatics have come down into Egypt....no protector will listen.... men will enter into the fortresses. Sleep will be banished from my eyes, as I spend the night wakeful. The wild beasts of the desert will drink at the rivers of Egypt and be at their ease on their banks for lack of someone to scare them away. This land is helter-skelter, and no one knows the result which will come about, which is hidden from speech, sight, or hearing. The face is deaf, for silence confronts. I show thee the land topsy-turvy. That which never happened has happened. Men will take up weapons of warfare, the land lives in confusion. Men will make arrows of metal, beg for the bread of blood, and laugh with the laughter of sickness. There is no one who weeps because of death; there is no one who spends the night fasting because of death; a man's heart pursues himself, mourning is not carried out today, the heart is completely separated from it. A man sits in his corner, turning his back while one man kills another. I show thee the son as a foe, the brother as an enemy, and a man killing his father. Every mouth is full of "Love Me!", and everything good has disappeared. The land is perished, laws were destined for it: the damaging of what had been done, the emptiness of what had been

Page 20: The Official Mascots of the Beijing 2008 Olympic …...Friendlies will serve as the Official Mascots of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, carrying a message of friendship and peace--and

found and the doing of what had not been done. Men take a man's property away from him, and it is given to him who is from outside, I show thee the possessor in need and the outsider satisfied. He who never filled for himself empties. Men will treat citizens as hateful, in order to silence the mouth that speaks. If a statement is answered, an arm goes out with a stick, and men speak with: "Kill Him!" The utterance of speech in the heart is like a fire. Men cannot suffer what issues from a man's mouth. The land is diminished, its administrators are many; bare, its taxes are great; little in grain, the measure is large, and it is measured to overflowing. … Then it is that a king will come belonging to the south, Ameni, the triumphant, his name. He is the son of a woman of the land of Nubia; he is one born in Upper Egypt. He will take the white crown; he will wear the red crown; he will unite the Two Mighty Ones; he will satisfy the Two Lords with what they desire. The encircler-of-the-fields, in his grasp, the oar... … There will be built the Wall of the Ruler-- and the Asiatics will not be permitted to come down into Egypt that they might beg for water in the customary manner, in order to let their beasts drink. And justice will come into its place, while wrongdoing is driven out. Rejoice, he who may behold and who may be in the service of the king! The learned man will pour out water for me, when he sees what I have spoken come to pass.
