I-Daimones Summoning in Greece: Demystifying the Unknown

Ukuya ezweni lamandla angaphezu kwawemvelo, ukusebenzelana nemimoya, noma okungabonwayo kuhlale kuvusa ilukuluku nemfihlakalo. Isikhathi esidlule, esigcwele izinganekwane zonkulunkulu, onkulunkulukazi, nezidalwa zasenganekwaneni, sisebenza njengelensi ekhangayo esingabonisa ngayo amazwibela okuqonda okungokomoya kokhokho bethu. Namuhla, sihlola umhlaba ophoqayo we izinganekwane zamaGreki zasendulo - indawo egcwele izinhlamvu eziyinkimbinkimbi nobudlelwano obuyinkimbinkimbi, lapho onkulunkulu nabantu abafayo babevame ukuwela izindlela. Ikakhulukazi, singena esicini esijabulisayo: ukubiza amademoni, noma kumongo wamaGreki asendulo, ukukhuleka kwama-daimones.

Omdala Izinganekwane zamaGreki i-tapestry ecebile ehlanganisa okuhlangenwe nakho kwabantu, izenzakalo zemvelo, kanye nokungenelela kukaNkulunkulu ezindabeni eziye zasinda ezinkulungwaneni zeminyaka. Kungaphezu kweqoqo lezinganekwane noma inganekwane; kuyisici esigxile kakhulu sendwangu yamaGreki asendulo, ebonisa ukuqonda kwawo umhlaba kanye nezingqinamba eziningi zempilo. Izinkulungwane zezinkulungwane zonkulunkulu, onkulunkulukazi, nezidalwa eziyimfihlakalo zibonisa izinkolelo ezingokwenkolo zamaGreki asendulo, izindinganiso zawo, ukwesaba kwawo, kanye nezifiso zawo. Ukuqonda izinganekwane zamaGreki kufana nokwembula ukulandisa okungokomlando namasiko okulolonge imicabango nezinkolelo zabantu.

Umehluko omkhulu ukhona phakathi komqondo wesimanje othi "amademoni" nomqondo wesiGreki sasendulo. I amaGreki asendulo ayebiza izinhlangano ezingaphezu kwemvelo ngokuthi "ama-daimones" - izidalwa ezazithatha i-spectrum phakathi kwabantu abafayo nonkulunkulu abangafi. Ngokuphambene nombono wesimanje wamademoni njengezinhlangano ezimbi ngokwemvelo, amaGreki ayebheka ama-daimone njengabathwali bekusasa, kungaba inhlanhla noma amashwa. Bangaletha izibusiso, banikeze ukuhlakanipha, bakhuthaze ikhono lokusungula, noma, ngokuphambene, balethe usizi, kuye ngesimo sabo kanye nengqikithi yokucela kwabo.

Igama lesiNgisi elithi "demon" lisuka olimini nasezinganekwaneni zasendulo, ikakhulukazi lisuka egameni lesiLatini elithi "daemon," lona ngokwalo lisukela egameni lesiGreki elithi "daimon" (δαίμων). Emongweni walo wokuqala, igama lesiGreki elithi “daimon” linencazelo ehluke kakhulu ekuqondweni kwanamuhla kwegama elithi “idemoni.”

Ukuqonda Umsuka WesiGreki Wegama elithi Idemoni

Ezindaweni zamasiko nezenkolo zaseGreece lasendulo, i-“daimon” yayibhekwa njengento engaphezu kwemvelo, umoya waphezulu. Kwakukholelwa ukuthi le mimoya ihlala endaweni ethile phakathi konkulunkulu nabantu abafayo endaweni yombuso wendawo yonke.

AmaDaimone ayengezona ngempela izidalwa ezimbi noma ezinonya. Eqinisweni, ngokuvamile ayebhekwa njengamandla anomusa ayenganikeza isiqondiso, alethe izibusiso, futhi akhuthaze ukusungula izinto. Abantu babekholelwa ukuthi le mimoya ithonya ikusasa lomuntu ngamunye, ilolonga ukuphila kwabo ngezindlela ezihlukahlukene. Ngakho-ke, umqondo we-daimon esikweni lamaGreki lasendulo ungaqhathaniswa eduze nemiqondo yesimanje yemimoya eqaphayo noma izingelosi.

Ukuvela Kwezwi Ledemoni

Ukuguqulwa kwegama elithi "daimon" libe "idemoni" - ngokuhlangana kwalo nemimoya emibi noma odeveli - kuwumphumela wokuguquguquka kwezilimi kanye nezinguquko emicabangweni yezenkolo phakathi namakhulu eminyaka. Njengoba ubuKristu busakazeka kulo lonke elaseYurophu, baletha nokuhunyushwa kabusha kwezinganekwane namagama amadala.

Umqondo wamaGreki wama-daimone waba noshintsho olukhulu phakathi nale nqubo. Incazelo yobuKristu yabeka ama-daimone njengemimoya enonya ephikisana nesaphezulu, ihambisana kakhulu nomqondo wesimanje wamademoni. Le ncazelo yabe isidluliselwa kwelesiLatini elithi "daemon," elagcina liguqulelwe egameni lesiNgisi elithi "demon."

Ukubheka izindlela zasendulo zamaGreki zokuthandaza nokubhula kufana nokuvula ingosi yesikhathi, esibuyisela emikhubeni eyisisekelo yokuphila okungokomoya kwamaGreki asendulo. Le mikhuba yayinquma ubuhlobo babo noNkulunkulu, amandla angaphezu kwawemvelo, nokungabonakali. Amasiko for ebiza onkulunkulu nemimoya ayenemininingwane eminingi futhi egcwele ukubaluleka okungokomfanekiso. Ngokuvamile ayehlanganisa iminikelo neminikelo yokuphuzwa, eyayinikelwa ema-altare anikezelwe noma emathempelini. Ezinye izici zale micikilisho zihlanganisa izinto ezingokomfanekiso, njengezithombe eziqoshiwe nama-talismans, imidanso ekhethekile, ukuphindaphinda, ngisho nezimo ezithile zokuqaphela. Ukunanela kwale mikhuba kungatholakala kuphindaphindeka emikhubeni yesimanje yemimoya, lapho iminikelo, ama-altare, nemifanekiso kusakazeke kabanzi.

Izimo zezibalo ezisebenzisana nama-daimone zigcwele izinganekwane zamaGreki. Ngokuvamile, abantu abafayo babefuna lokhu kuxhumana ukuze bathole isiqondiso, ukuhlakanipha, noma ngisho nosizo oluqondile. Isibonelo esivelele i-Oracle yaseDelphi, eyaziwa njengomboni onamandla kunabo bonke eGreece yasendulo. I-Oracle, noma uPythia, kwakukholelwa ukuthi ivala igebe phakathi kwabantu abafayo nonkulunkulu u-Apollo nge-daimon engumxhumanisi, yaba umzila wesiprofetho saphezulu.

Abesifazane babenendima ebalulekile emikhubeni yasendulo yamaGreki. Abaningi babo babekhonza njengabapristikazi, beqhuba imicikilisho yenkolo nemikhosi. I-Pythia, i abapristikazi abakhulu be-Oracle yaseDelphi, zazibhekwa njengabalamuli bokugcina phakathi kwezindawo zaphezulu nezifayo. Abesifazane bebengagcini nje ngokubamba iqhaza kodwa futhi nabaholi, behlonishwa futhi behlonishwa ngamakhono abo omoya.

Isigxivizo sasendulo Idemoni yamaGreki mayelana nemikhuba yesimanje yokulumba kukhulu. Imikhuba efana nokukhuleka nokubhula, egxiliswe kakhulu emicikilishweni yasendulo yamaGreki, yedlule isikhathi ukuze ibe amatshe ekhona kumlingo wesimanje. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuqonda ukuthi ama-daimones awanawo umusa ngokuphelele noma awabi kunikeza umbono ohluke kakhulu osize ekulolongeni umcabango wesimanje wokulumba.

Ukuqonda umongo womlando namasiko wokubizwa kwamademoni esiGreki sasendulo kudlulela ngalé kwesithakazelo semfundo. Inikeza ukuqonda okusebenzayo kunoma ubani othakathwa yizinganekwane, ukusebenzelana nemimoya, noma ukukhula ngokomoya. Ukuqonda isenzo sokulinganisa phakathi kwamandla anomusa nayingozi, ukubaluleka kwemikhuba, ukuhlonipha amandla abesifazane, nokuxhumana kwamasiko ahlukene konke kusenza sibe abahlanganyeli abanolwazi futhi abaqaphelayo ohambweni lwethu lokomoya.
