I was gathering these fun colored Adamites for our Live Sale this Saturday, the 24th, and had to stop to get a video. I wish I could sell them in a set because the colors are so fun all together. Not to mention, they are all such glittering gems. I’m really excited for this Live Sale. It is going to be filled with so many unusual minerals, more than I normally do, which is saying something! So many are old stock, from old collections because the mines have been closed or are not producing. We even have one piece that was mined in 1956! Join us starting at 4pm MST for lots of fun and of course great info that hopefully will enhance your crystal education 😀 And of course the cats will be visiting as well 🐾🐾 - - - #adamite #adamites #adamitecrystal #shimmer #glittery #glitteringminerals #glitteringcrystals #mineralcollecting #mineral #minerals #rareminerals #livesale #livesales #livecrystalsale #livecrystalsales #crystalline #crystallivesale #crystallivesales #crystalsofinstagram #crystalsofig #crystalhealer #crystalhealing #colorpalette #auraglow #aura #chakrahealing #boulder #handsofspirit (at Hands of Spirit Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1fOim0BwnL/?igshid=1t2nuenoqfvll

Secret Societies and Hidden History

ADAMITES

A heretical movement in central Europe during the Renaissance, the Adamites were founded around 1400 by a Bohemian visionary named Picard, who renamed himself "Adam, son of God." The Adamites believed that faith in Christ erased original sin and brought body and soul back to the primal innocence of Eden. Accordingly, they wore no clothes and practiced sexual promiscuity, arguing that "to the pure, all things were pure." Many hundreds of Adamites were burned at the stake as heretics by the Catholic Church during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, but some Adamite groups in Bohemia and Moravia (in today's Czech Republic) survived long enough to be persecuted by Protestants in the late sixteenth century. The Adamites have sometimes been confused with the Cathars, a very different Christian heresy prominent in the two centuries before Picard's time.

Were an Ancient Christian Sect of Nudists the World's First Hippies?

They sound closer to pagans to me (well, except for the whole referencing the Biblical God thing) - dancing naked around a bonfire at night? Count me in..

Who Are The Grey Aliens Really?

The first making were the Markabians. Which were the ancestors of what this world is calling Greys. They are what you would call organic robotoids. But they are Scouts. They are more intellectual than physical. So the Adamites were made more physical in order to handle the hard labor of mining gold.

Every religion has sects that come about from a difference in doctrine or practice. Today, many of the older sects of major world religions have been forgo

Adamites

In the second and third century, various gnostic sects appeared in the Christian world. Each of these sects had doctrines that differed from mainstream Christianity. Most emphasized hidden or esoteric doctrines. The Adamite sect looked to bring men back to the state that Adam and Eve were in during the Garden of Eden. Because of this, they rejected any sort of institution that could not have existed in the Garden of Eden, completely eschewing regulatory practices in their doctrine.

Adamites took a dualistic view of life, contending that matter was evil and that the spirit was good. As such, they focused on freeing the body from its material shell. They also held to the idea that since the material world is evil, human beings could do whatever they wanted. Due to this belief and their views of the Garden of Eden, the Adamites often worshiped in the nude. They taught that everyone would eventually face God naked, so nude religious practices were best. Still, their worship was centered on Jesus Christ.

Adamites refused to comply to laws since governments did not exist in the Garden of Eden. Other Christians viewed the Adamites as heretics; by the fourth century, the Adamites died out. Oddly, Adamite sects came back in the pre-Reformation medieval ages. Contemporary accounts of the neo-Adamites showed that they kept up their practices of running around nude and worshiping in nature. They also were well-known for their highly sexual lifestyle. This new group of Adamites ended in 1421 when the Taborites, a rival religious community, attacked the main Adamite community in modern-day Czechoslovakia and killed many of them.
