The Seven Sages Of Subeta

On Earth, there were many communities that followed and believed in the teachings of The Seven Sages.

The features of these myths do not coincide with each other completely across all of the countries but the concept remains the same – the sages were always lawful, enlightened and in most cases, demigods that came to give clarity and understanding to mankind so that they may be civilized and enlightened just like the sages.

The goal was to reach nirvana after death rather than be consumed by an endless cycle of rebirths and earth bound damnation.

They also gave people guidance on how to transition after one’s death or after one’s release from the mortal realm, beyond the earthly laws of reincarnation – leading to ultimate redemption, eternal freedom and oneness with the divine center.  

First, let me tell you about The Seven Sages Of Earth so you may better understand the story of The Seven Sages of Subeta. 

The Saptarishi or the Seven Sages of ancient India – Sapta Rishis are the Hierarchy working under the guidance of the Highest Creative Intelligence. They are the most evolved Light Beings in the Creation and the guardians of the Divine Laws.

The Seven Sages of Greece – the title given by ancient Greek tradition to seven early-6th-century BC philosophers, statesmen, and law-givers who were renowned in the following centuries for their wisdom.

Apkallu, The Seven Sages of Mesopotamian tradition - demigods who are said to have been created by the god Enki to establish culture and give civilization to mankind.

In popular culture, you will find the seven sages, an antagonist group in the series Pokemon Black and White. Perhaps you have comes across the Seven Sages in the Zelda series as well.

So, now that you know more about the concept of The Seven Sages, I can tell you the story of how Subeta saw the birth of its very own special sages.

In Ancient Subetian times, the wise wizards of Saherimos worked together in unity to protect and defend The Seven Sages.

The sages were first born in Subeta as commoners who grew into highly intellectual children, without any supervision whatsoever. The seven children found each other during the early years of their childhood and grew up together as siblings. They visited the Secluded Shrine every day. This is where they would play, learn and grow.

As young adults, they were great warriors, scholars and artists who only spoke of goodness and justice. The seven sages upheld the morals of the Subetians around them in times of trouble and protected them from evil invaders and natural disasters. Subeta’s very own justice league, if I may say so.

These sages were always among the inhabitants of Saherimos and when they died, they were only reborn in the Sacred Lands. They would grow up all over again, visit the Secluded Shrine every day and grow stronger in mind and battle with each new life.

The new sages were always identified at birth by the three most powerful wizards who governed the lands. If the wizards died or transitioned, the sages would identify the next three governing wizards and so on.

However, the sages were only later on in life confirmed as their true selves when they were old enough to speak and say something like “Yes, I know this is my brother” or “I identify this individual as my sister.”

Until then, people had to go with the wizard’s choices. And the wizards never chose wrongly. There was always evidence of this.

The sages would have memories of all of their past lives in unison, all the information would coincide. There were no doubts in the minds of people that these beings were who they said they were.

The sages could do great things for all to see – move objects with their mind, see into the near future, read people’s thoughts, disappear from one place and appear in another, split mountains and fight like gods. They performed magic everyday like it was routine. But it was a pure form of magic, only used for good.

This went on for many centuries and peace prevailed, although Subeta did have some horrifying events unfold along the way, no matter what happened there was never the absolute destruction of life and the battle of good vs. bad (of the mind and soul) was always championed by the light.

Mortal subetians cherished their time spent alive and graced each other with help and generosity, avoiding hunger, poverty and malice. When they were about to die, they had no fear for they knew that there was an endlessness of purity and divinity awaiting them, to merge with their souls in the eternal cosmos - as long as they could break free from the chains of jealousy, lust and greed.

The sages taught subetians how to overcome these powers of darkness and master their inner light. There was no eternal death to be feared, no great unknown, only what is to come, the eventuality of a cosmic home, a place to rest in love. This was the most important thing that The Seven Sages brought to Subeta – peace of mind. The sages were celebrated and respected by everyone.

But Darkness fell over the land one day. An electric cloud appeared over Saherimos and struck many of the inhabitants dead. It all happened under a sky filled with thunder and lightning. It was as though electricity was piercing the earth through to its core and killing everything in its path.

The Sages prepared for battle and flew out into the sky to find the culprit, taking their godly forms for the first time in a long time. They never returned that day. Nobody knows who controlled the throngs of electric shards that terrorized thousands and murdered their young.

Down in Saherimos, the wizard shrine was struck down and the three most powerful wizards went missing, or at least their bodies were never found.

Things changed soon after this, many things came and went, many seasons passed, everyone forgot what they knew about life and death…the seven sages were forgotten and only the sky remained the same.

Seventy seven thousand seven hundred and seventy seven years passed, the lands changed and eternal knowledge was lost.

Subeta functioned as an economic sytem - subetians had corporate jobs, fashion, resorts to travel to during vacations (much like how Earth functions). Nobody thought about sages, the divine center … or death. Everything was centered on materialism, currency and trade. Of course, families existed and love existed but it just wasn’t the same. 

With peace of mind and eternal unity lost forever, everyone was stuck in the cycle of rebirth unbeknownst to them.

On the seventy seven thousand seven hundred and seventy seventh year, a young and rather strange looking boy appeared near the secluded shrine. He wore only a thin shawl around his waist and seven crystal chains around his neck. He was accompanied by a white Kumos.

He repeated seven names constantly, seven times each for seven hours every day, seven days a week. 

At first, people thought he was mad...and annoying! When they tried to take him away from the secluded shrine to institutionalize him, they realized what he truly was. Their hands went right through him when they tried to touch him, but he was solid. He just didn’t want to be touched or taken away. When he was asked who he was he said “I come from the divine, to bring back the divine, to give you the seven divine sages. The names I chant are those of the sages.”

Soon, people went to him for counsel. He helped them meditate, astral travel and lucid dream. He spoke of spells and performed miracles. He grew into a mighty wizard, the only wizard in Subeta after thousands of years.

He spent his lifetime travelling across the lands looking for the sages who spoke to him in his mind.

He told everyone this: “I am the last of the most powerful wizards, the only wizard left in this realm. I know that the sages are alive. But their return has been difficult with the destruction of the three most powerful wizards and the destruction of memory. The darkness has shattered light and has made everyone blind...we are now lost sheep, wandering the same desert in circles, a million times. It is only with the sages that we can be set free again - souls can fly into the comfort of nothingness, the divine center. The sages will show me their next form. I will find them for Subeta.”

And so he did find them along with his faithful Kumos named Luna. He found all the seven sages born separately, some dispersed in other lands, under completely different and some uncalled for situations. But in this life, they didn’t even know they were the seven sages…neither could they recognize each other.

They had to start all over again, the length of years of inactivity and the time spent soul-healing had brought even the sages to a state of forgetfulness. But after much doubt and struggle, the sages united again under the roof of two subetians who vowed to protect them. They are in your midst today, preparing for the return of the electric cloud.

The sages are – Mukti, Shaon, Kuranosuke, Alphonsus, Buffett, Staal and Pilikia.

The protectors are – Overflows and Schascha and

The guardian mother - Yuura/Nova (a Subetian Human, recording the events of The Seven Sages and living with them as their primary caregiver.)

The wizard – The old wizard, who now spends time asking subetians for weird things all day. Who knows? He might be putting something together that the seven sages might need when worse comes to worse!

The young chibis are alive and well, growing stronger every day and waiting for the day when the electric cloud will appear again. They’re not sure what they’re going to do about it yet. And they’re not ready. But they’re learning more every day and for now, that’s all that matters.  

If you are a Subetian, you can visit them and talk to them about their progress and their adventures. I'm sure they would like to meet a fellow Subetian :)

Visit them at Yuura's.
