The power of the ancients stargate3/11/2023 ![]() ![]() Not all Ancients ascended at once there were different periods of time in which the advanced humans had evolved to the point where it was achievable. Over fifty million years after the Altera left their home galaxy, the differences between the two original groups of humans were exacerbated to affect ascended and corporeal beings alike, making it a war of cosmic significance. Unfortunately, the Ori's corruption was so complete that they deemed their brethren, the Ancients, as "evil spirits" who were "selfish in their powerful advantage" and felt that the only way to keep their believers on the "true path" was to destroy anyone who tried to lead them "astray". The ascended Ancients saw the Ori's corruption and decided to have no interaction with humans whatsoever so as to avoid becoming corrupt themselves. This ability to draw power from the humans' worship has never been explained, but apparently, all planes of existence are bound to each other in some way as part of a vast, infinite universe. The Altera leaned toward the scientific study of their world, while the Ori had a more spiritual perspective, which ultimately translated into the ascended Ori's establishing a religion with themselves as the gods so that they could obtain more power by being worshiped by humans. These two groups actually came from a single human society who existed a very long time ago in a distant galaxy: the Altera, who later became known as the Ancients and then as The Others, and the Ori. Two major groups of Ascended Beings sprang up as the result of two diametrically opposed philosophies as to how to handle the power of being ascended and using that power against others, including the "lowers" ("humans and such") of the corporeal plane of existence. Even so, the reality of it is that once ascended, a being does become more knowledgeable and powerful, which can be a dangerous thing if the individual is not yet prepared to handle such knowledge and power responsibly and benevolently. ![]() It is just the beginning of the journey," Daniel Jackson explained to his friends. "Ascension doesn't make you all knowing or all powerful. Those with less spiritual beliefs saw ascension simply as a natural physical evolution of their species, but still might have applied the term "Path to Enlightenment" to the process because ascension does expose one to the knowledge of the universe and thus enlightenment. With this in mind, the philosophy of the Path to Enlightenment was established, giving the individual guidance as he made his way toward a state of higher being. Because ascension requires this added maturity, one should seek to better himself while still in human form. This process, known as ascension, requires that the individual be prepared to handle the responsibility of increased knowledge and power as an enlightened being. As the Ancients evolved both mentally and physically, they learned that their next stage of evolution was the shedding of the physical body to live as a form of intelligent energy on a higher plane of existence. The advanced human race known as the Ancients have a very long history, having lived over a period of at least 50 million years. To tell their story, one must also include the story of those who were created by them and who inherited their legacy long after they moved on. The Ancients are the founders of the Stargate network and along with their brethren the Ori are the creators of humanity in at least three galaxies. To present the timeline of the Ancients is to present a timeline for a major portion of the Stargate saga. 2 Ancients: On the Path to Enlightenment. ![]()
