The Shining Ones features the  wide range of original multi-disciplinary research undertaken by Christian and  Barbara Joy O’Brien, in identifying and locating the site of the Garden of  Eden.  Our site survey in 2009 and  on-going research has confirmed the evidence provided by the O’Brien’s.  The Rachaya/Aiha Garden of Eden site is now  featured as a site for protection by the Association for the Protection of  Lebanese Heritage (APLH), and  it will only be a matter of time before this great discovery is widely accepted  by the public.
 - 
As one of the world’s leading  exploration geologists, Christian O’Brien provides a wide range of evidence for  the existence of Atlantis - a former large island on the site of the  Azores.  The clear geological  evidence, now widely supported, includes a substantial hanging river bed on San  Miguel and sub-aerial valley’s.
 - 
Recent  research by the University of Jerusalem on the world’s  oldest recorded town at Jericho, featured  in the O’Brien’s Genius of the Few,  confirms that observational astronomy was being carried out using the Jericho tower as a key marker, before  9,000 BC.  The immense rock cut ditch  and the associated sophisticated stonework technology at Jericho is replicated  in the construction of the Great Watercourse, which went out of Eden and was  parted by sluices into channels to water the Garden in the Rachaiya Basin,  below Mt Hermon.  The complex invention  of lime for controlling soil acidity and for durable lime plaster, rectangular  houses, along with domesticated crops and animals at the PPNA and PPNB  boundary, presents proof of an advanced  civilisation.
 - 
The origin of our  domesticated crops and animals is centred upon the Rachaiya/Aiha Basin site  in the Levantine Corridor, with snow melt water and sophisticated control of  the water table, being principal features.   This very complex technology, together with domesticated seeds and  animals, was spread around the world by  the culture bearers within a 2000 year period from 9,400 BC.  The names of our ancestors live on as Archangels, Angels, and Watchers, described in early languages as the en-ge-li, meaning Lords of the Cultivation, or ap-ka-lu, bright  farmers from the enclosure, or Elohim, the bright or shining ones.
 - 
O’Brien demonstrated that  sophisticated observational astronomy was being conducted in East Anglia,  Britain, using what he describes as the Line A – Hatfield Forest to  Wandlebury – Loxodrome, demonstrating that those who constructed the line  of markers one megalith mile apart over 26 megalithic miles, knew the exact  dimensions of the earth around 2,500 BC.
 - 
He followed this discovery with a  detailed survey of the giant stone cairns on Bodmin Moor, Britain, establishing and proving  beyond doubt with computer probability analysis, deliberately constructed  alignments over a large area, qualifying the construction as a massive  observational astronomy educational centre around 2,500 BC.  A Druidic Academy for young people.
 - 
The O’Brien’s found that to  accurately translate early Sumerian  Cuneiform texts, they had to establish the origin of this form of writing,  which was based on over 400 simple picture signs with  associated sounds.  His translation of  the Phaistos Disk (a story related to the Garden of Eden) demonstrates the unique and crucial skills needed in  understanding the secular messages, which our ancestors were passing on to  us.  Further research has revealed that the alefbeg, the speedy writing of Enoch, existed with the administrators of City States  from the earliest times, and was taught in the Kingship Schools.
 - 
Tom  Brooks over a lifetime of surveying ancient sites, has proven  conclusively that our ancestors mapped the whole of Britain with incredible  accuracy.  This ties in well with the  work of Christian O’Brien, Charles Hapgood and Livio Stechini, on the  mathematical sophistication of our ancestors world-wide.  They set out to allocate land fairly, both to  arrivals, and to those qualified as master craftsmen, together with a  population who enjoyed the benefits of the common ownership land, and the fair,  efficient distribution and utilisation of that land.
 - 
With the same realisation as the  O’Brien’s of the sophistication of ancient civilisations, Canadian researcher  John Gagnon explains the purpose and message left encoded into the  construction of the Great Pyramid, in  his book Message from the  Ancestors.  A record of the  10,850 BC cataclysm, which tipped the earth on its axis, moving the North Pole  from the area of the Hudson Bay, to where it resided when the Great Pyramid was  built.  This is recorded by the Kings and  Queens chambers star shafts and position of pole stars.  The builders had predicted the 2,345 BC  cataclysm, which drove the hectic 150 years of pyramid building on the Giza  plateau and henge re-constructions from observatories to stone, wood and earth  shelters in Britain from 2,500 BC.  They  knew that this predicted event could well be as serious a problem for mankind  as the 10,850 BC event – the biggest mass extinction for 3.5 million years.
 - 
O’Brien identifies the land of  Kana’an in the Eastern Mediterranean, as the starting point of the Holocene  (wholly recent period) re-start of agriculture in a Glacial Refuge for  important plants around 9,500 BC, and the subsequent diffusion around the world  of agricultural technology and civilisation over the next 2000 years.  Early settlements were established at Jericho in the Jordan Rift Valley, Catul Huyak in Anatolia, Baalbek in the Lebanon (head of the  two rivers Litani and Orontes and meeting place of the Anannage Divine Council), Ebla in west Syria. Olympus in Old  Greece and On (An) in the Nile  Delta.  All these sites have a special  place in the evolution, recorded history and progress of our ancestors.  The recent discoveries at Gobeki Tepe, contemporary with Jericho,  and the Canal Builders on the  Eastern Seaboard of the United States from around 6,000 BC, add to our  knowledge of great sophistication, well before the Sumerian civilisation  started around 5,000 BC.

Christian O’Brien’s last book the Path of Light, (described below in  point 14) provides important supporting clues, for claiming that Jesus’s  mission had started from Britain, assisted by Rome, through the close links  between the Court of the British Kings at Colchester, the Court of Augustus in  Rome, and the Court of Herod in Judea.   In addition, the Eastern Mediterranean was the home-land of most British  People, so that the family links between the three Courts should not be a surprise.
Connected evidence, assisted by  genealogies provided from Vatican sources, identifies  Jesus with Yeshua, Cymberline, Cunobelinius and Cyneflyn, and the first Pendragon of the Britannic Isle,  appointed by the Druid Council in 10 AD, on his succession to his adoptive  father King Tenvantius/Tasciovanius, King of the Catuvellauni,.  Tenvantius had adopted both the brilliant  Jesus and his twin brother Thomas, following the deaths of his sons, who were  fighting with the Roman troops in Germanica, under the General, who would become  Tiberius Caesar.  All four boys had spent  part of their education with Augustus in Rome.   Augustus and Tiberius had played the import role in this adoption.  Jesus  was a favourite of Caesar Augustus, and this association with the Romans  greatly promoted the peace within Britain and advanced the civilization among  his people.
 - 
A clue to Jesus being closely linked to the British Druids was the gift of twelve hides of land from King Aviragus, cousin of Caractacus, to  the twelve disciples of Jesus, accompanying Joseph of Arimathea to Britain after  the crucifixion.  Such a gift was  reserved for qualified Druids. There were three Joseph’s, who ran the trade  routes for the Roman Emperors from Rome, their hereditary title was ha rama theo, which applied to  half-brother James, and step father Joseph.
 - 
This ancient King of Kings title runs  through the Bible evidence on the role and identity of Jesus, now being  confirmed by further on-going research.   He was Britain’s most successful legendary King, uniting the British  Isles under his Pendragon leadership between 10 and 26 AD.  Emperor Tiberius Caesar proposed that Jesus the Nazerine should be included  in the pantheon of the national Roman Gods for his peace making roles during Pax Romana.  Jesus as Chrestus in 49 AD in Rome, was described as the leading protagonist for Christianity  at the Council of Nicea in 324 AD, under British born Roman Emperor Constantine

Conventional religious divisions,  misunderstandings and misrepresentations can be changed for the better by these  findings, which link us back to our benevolent Gods, and their superb laws and  social organisation, based on Kingship and craftsmanship, originally delivered  by the Divine Council at Kharsag, to the City States of the Golden Age.  The Path  of Light, O’Brien’s translation of the Askew and Bruce Codices, presents  the advanced teachings of Jesus to his male and female disciples after the  crucifixion, recorded and witnessed, as required for a legal document, by the  disciple scribes Matthew, Philip and Thomas.   Jesus was teaching the Surat (soul), Shabd (word), Yoga (union) of the  ancient Druid world.  Jesus was King of  the Druids and had retired as an Arch-Druid.   The Sermon on the Mount is a clear Druid Message.
