Hey everyone. I have a few questions regarding the Gods and NHI that are not clear to me.
A bit of a background on me (you can skip this), I have been a practicing occultist and a Satanist for a long time. I am on my own path, I don't belong to any group, but the Temple has always been in some regards the closest to my personal beliefs. But when I used to read the websites and posts many years ago, the Temple was very different. A lot of changes have happened since then, as I understand it due to more information were allowed to come to light.
I've been reading here and there throughout the years but I am not fully up-to-date with the current beliefs of the Temple. There are some subjects that are a bit confusing to me because they are approached and talked about differently than in the old version of the Temple. One thing I think I understand and came to the same conclusion myself is the nature of the Divine.
Okay, so here are my questions:
Are all Gods believed to be just aspects of the Divine or there is still a class of Gods below Deus Pater / The Divine? I understand in some ways there is a unity but is there still a distinction between the ones who are really just aspects of Divine and the ones that are the class below Him?
I saw a post about NHI, including the ones often called Nordics, who are said to be usually spiritually highly evolved and in general in alliance with us more or less. But they are not to be confused with the Gods. In the old Temple the Gods were described as looking quite similar to what's the Nordics' description. I understand this understanding was revised and stated that the Gods will take a form appropiate to the practitioner. But still, is there some connection with the Nordics or not at all anymore (or never has been)?
Do the Gods have physical bodies? What is the belief about this? In the old Temple it was said that they have a physical body somewhere, they are incarnated.
What about the Anunnaki? In the old Temple it was my understanding they are the Gods and unlike many other other myths, their story is not entirely symbolic, there is a real, physical history tied to them and the creation of humanity. Are the Anunnaki still considered to be the Gods themselves? Is there story still something the current Temple believes in?
Thank you in advance for anyone answering my question!
