Additional Biographical History:
Within these last four to five years of personal rediscovery, the gradual unveiling of my lineage, as guided by Spirit, continues to further deepen, with revelation, into the truest origins of my Father’s geneology. One may think that the Ayapana name, just from its pronunciation, exudes the very roots of an ancient Hawaiian past. One may even assume that it may even hold it’s purest familial ties, possessed from amongst centuries and upon centuries of tradition leading, in guidance, to the olden memory of Filippino tribal existence; But the AYAPANA name, from its deepest origins, traces back even further to the bloodlines of Incan and Peruvian descent. The name even draws an extraordinary connection to the Ayapana triplinervous, a well known herbal root utilized for medicinal purposes, from amongst the local village shaman community whom dwell within the deepened jungles of Peru.
To reitorate, the Ayapana name is neither, deeply, inter-related to any Spanish lineage, nor indigenous to any of the other smaller tribes of the Philippines from amongst the string of archipelago islands, which had once been known by the Ancients as Maharlika. Now, the question still remains, “How did the Ayapana name trek the lengthened voyage, far and away from the highly revered and fabled mountainous terrain of Peru?”
Clearly, if intuition serves me right, the Peruvian culture and of its deeper interconnections with Incan and Lemurian origin, definitively, resonates within the bulk of all of my spiirit. My ancestors, literally, drudged and endured the coarse of time, traveled through and trekked the many thousands of miles of hardened terrain, and travailed from amidst the deepest jungles of the Amazon, by way through thousands and upon thousands of miles, additionally, of Pacific Ocean to arrive, complacently and with opened arms, amidst the calming and beautiful shores of the Philippine Islands.
Could there have been a land mass, which had connected the two countries together, before any evidence of continental drift had ever been known to exist? Was there a significant amount of trade which existed along the Pacific which could have even encouraged the increased interaction and intermingling from amongst these differing peoples and cultures? Is there, indeed, a more profound connection, here, which persists, congruently from amongst the many cultures and civilizations of the Pacific, whom share the same common ancestry from amongst a once-greatened and ancient empire? The answer didn’t arise anymore the clearer to me until I had been blessed upon by the wisdom encouraged by the initiates of the Mystery Schools of the Ancients and by the energies of the Apu Mountain Spirit Peaks, during my pilgrimage trip, late September last year during the Fall Equinox of 2012.
There is the presence of a deep-seated conviction, here, but mostly an indigenous belief passed on from oral tradition, for which (at one point) many thousands of years ago, there was a continent, long known from amongst the many indigenous people (the Aborigines in Australia, the Ifugao of the Philippines, the Inca of Peru, the Rapa Nui of Easter Island, and the many tribes of Hawaii, Tahiti, and Samoa), which had long existed and thrived within the Pacific Ocean.This continent had often been referred to as the lost continent of Mu, Lemuria so-to-speak, which encompassed the majority of all of these smaller indigenous civilizations, until devastation had struck the continent through unknown calamity which destroyed this large and thriving civilization as a whole. These varying tribes found throughout the, seemingly, limitless expanse of the Pacific, whom still exist today, are, essentially, the descendants of the long lost Golden Age of Lemuria. The Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras is an extraordinary example of an evolved, living cultural landscape, which leads further in history as far as two millennia ago from the pre-colonial Philippines to traces guiding even further back to Lemuria.
These terraces are located in the remote areas of the Philippine Cordillera mountain range on the northern island of Luzon, one of the many Philippine archipelagoes. While these historic terraces cover an extensive area, the inscribed property consists of five clusters of the most intact and impressive terraces, located from amongst the four municipalities. They are all the result of the ingenuity possessed by the Ifugao ethnic group, a minority community which had occupied these mountain ranges for thousands and upon thousands of years. Some scholars estimate that these rice fields and terraces could, potentially, feed populations from amongst the millions if need be.
Now, here’s another question, if it is indeed true concerning the heightened lengths for which these very terraces could feed such greatened amounts of people by the millions, then what is the purpose and reasoning for the ancient construction of such extraordinarily built terraces? If the total population in the Philippines, during prehistory when these terraces were built, was less than 500, 000 people, as purported by scholars, then why was there such a strong need to produce so so so much food? The answer then lies within the possibility that maybe, perhaps, the indigenous were considerably right from all of this time. The ancient Ifugao of the Philippines (Maharlika), the Aborigines, the Rapa Nui, the Inca and amongst the many other Pacific lying civilizations and cultures were indeed a significant part of what was known as (Pacifica) Lemuria or Mu. Before the Philippines was given its nationally designated name, it was referred to by other Asian countries along the Pacific as considered the Land of Gold or the Land of Nobility (Maharlika). Maharlika also has its ties to Ancient Indian Sanskrit which is Maharddhika, meaning a man of wealth. Further, many sources claim, from most recent geographic findings, that Lemuria consisted of eight total subcontinents where one of those sub-continents was ironically named Maharloka. You see the connection here: Maharlika and Maharloka?
How can the consistency from amongst such cultures and civilizations of the indigenous and ancient peoples, whom have thrived and existed for thousands and upon thousands of years, be readily discounted and dismissed by Western Scholars, when Western Civilization and Culture has only been in existance for only less than 400 years? Somewhere along these lines, there is a hidden truth, which is beginning to unravel itself in revelation to what had always been felt but least understood. So, in conclusion, who am I, essentially, after such a bold but courageous statement? I AM Joel Ayala Ayapana. I AM a humbled descendant of the Greatened Incan and Lemurian Ways, I AM an honorable Filipino American. I AM educated (Two Bachelor Degrees in Psychology and in Nursing). I AM a Searcher of the Truth. I AM a Veteran of the United States Air Force 1991-1995 (Operation Desert Storm/ Desert Shield). I AM a Husband… A Father… A Son… A Brother… A Cousin… A Nephew… A Human Being. I AM a Marathon Runner… I AM a Traveler… I AM a Writer… I AM an Author… I AM a Citizen of Mother Gaia… of Earth. I AM a Lover of the World and of its People… I AM a Person of God… Protector of Humanity’s Evolving Consciousness. Holder of the Christ Consciousness: Bringer of the Light. I AM a Re-Igniter of the Heart… I AM a Master of My Own Reality… I AM.
