'''''[[The Holy Mountain]]''''' is a 1973 Mexican surrealist film directed, written, produced, co-scored, co-edited by and starring Alejandro Jodorowsky, who also participated as a set designer and costume designer on the film. The film is based on ''Ascent of Mount Carmel'' by John of the Cross and ''[[Mount Analogue]]'' by René Daumal. In this film, much of Jodorowsky's visually psychedelic story follows the metaphysical thrust of ''Mount Analogue''. This is revealed in such events as the climb to the [[alchemy|alchemist]], the assembly of individuals with specific skills, the discovery of the mountain that unites [[Heaven]] and [[Earth]] "that cannot not exist," and symbolic challenges along the mountain ascent.
An individual '''[[Lilith]]''', along with Bagdana "king of the lilits", is one of the demons to feature prominently in protective spells in the eighty surviving Jewish [[occult]] incantation bowls from Sassanid Empire Babylon (4th–6th century AD) with influence from Iranian culture. These bowls were buried upside down below the structure of the house or on the land of the house, in order to trap the [[demon]]. Almost every house was found to have such protective bowls against demons.

Incantation bowl Lilith.jpg

An individual Lilith, along with Bagdana "king of the lilits", is one of the demons to feature prominently in protective spells in the eighty surviving Jewish occult incantation bowls from Sassanid Empire Babylon (4th–6th century AD) with influence from Iranian culture. These bowls were buried upside down below the structure of the house or on the land of the house, in order to trap the demon. Almost every house was found to have such protective bowls against demons.
