Mystery in Arkansas: Alien Lights, Bigfoot, and Underground Bases Revealed!

The Ozark region of Arkansas is no stranger to peculiar tales, but the events surrounding the Broad Camp Crystal Mine take the concept of strangeness to a new level. From glowing orbs to claims of underground alien bases, the mine has become a hotspot for paranormal enthusiasts. The story doesn’t end there—it intertwines with near-death experiences, Bigfoot sightings, and unexplainable phenomena, painting a surreal tapestry of mystery and intrigue. Let’s dive deeper into the unfolding enigma.

The Mysterious Broad Camp Crystal Mine

Located in the heart of Arkansas, the Broad Camp Crystal Mine was initially purchased by Cheryl and Orville Murphy with the intention of developing a campground and music venue. However, plans shifted when they discovered that their property was rich in quartz crystals. Along with the crystals, the couple began experiencing unexplained phenomena that led them to reimagine their venture as a crystal tourism destination.

Their experiences began in 2017 when beams of light inexplicably appeared on the hilltop. These lights defied conventional physics, emitting no shadows and displaying unusual magnetism, which left fence posts and other metallic objects magnetized.

Levitating Rocks and Magnetic Mysteries

Adding to the intrigue, levitating rocks have been reported at the mine. These aren’t mere optical illusions; videos have captured objects inexplicably moving or hovering. The phenomenon has led some to speculate about an energy source beneath the ground, potentially linked to the region’s quartz-rich geology.

Researchers and witnesses have also noted the absence of shadows around these mysterious beams of light. Additionally, metallic objects in the vicinity have shown evidence of magnetization, further fueling theories about advanced, unearthly technology or natural geological forces at play.

A Link to the Paranormal

The events at the Broad Camp Crystal Mine are not isolated. Witnesses have reported glowing orbs and strange occurrences, phenomena often associated with other paranormal hotspots. Josh White, the son of the Murphys, described seeing orbs appearing and disappearing among the trees—a common feature in areas linked to high strangeness.

Furthermore, the phenomenon extends beyond Arkansas. In Bailey, Colorado, another site tied to paranormal activity features a “portal tree” linked to alleged interdimensional gateways. Researchers suggest that these sites may be connected through a vast underground network of energy points, adding another layer of mystery to the puzzle.

The Role of Bigfoot

Bigfoot has also made its presence felt in the Arkansas saga. Visitors to the mine have reported sightings of Sasquatch-like creatures. One notable account described a creature peering into a truck before disappearing up a hill with ease. Others have claimed encounters with entities resembling Bigfoot that exhibit red eyes and appear to guide or interact with humans.

The connection between Bigfoot and orbs has been noted in other paranormal research, suggesting a possible link between these enigmatic beings and the unexplained energy phenomena observed at the mine.

Underground Bases and Alien Connections

A recurring theory among investigators and witnesses is the presence of an underground base beneath the Broad Camp Crystal Mine. Some, like Navajo medicine man Garrett Fowler, claim the site houses an ancient “star base” powered by crystal technology. According to Fowler, this base utilizes the energy of the quartz crystals to support advanced systems, including anti-gravitational technology.

Orville Murphy himself described an otherworldly experience when he encountered a mysterious beam of light. He claimed the light transported him through a tunnel-like structure filled with vibrant colors and dropped him off at a different location. Both he and a companion reported disorientation and described being “tagged” by human-like beings during the event.

The Worldwide Meditation Event

One of the most recent and dramatic incidents occurred during a worldwide meditation event in 2023. Participants, including Orville, lit bonfires as part of the collective ritual. During the event, a massive column of light appeared, captured on trail cameras. Witnesses described the light as otherworldly, emitting an intense glow that failed to illuminate its surroundings—a stark contrast to normal light sources.

Science, Speculation, and Skepticism

While the stories are undeniably compelling, skeptics question the validity of the claims. Some suggest the lights and magnetism could be natural phenomena, such as piezoelectric effects from the quartz crystals. Others remain unconvinced, pointing to the possibility of hoaxes or elaborate marketing tactics.

However, the recurring themes of portals, underground bases, and interdimensional beings are consistent with accounts from other global hotspots of high strangeness. The consistency of these reports adds weight to the idea that something extraordinary may indeed be happening in Arkansas.

The Broad Camp Crystal Mine stands as a beacon of mystery, drawing those intrigued by the paranormal and the unexplained. Whether the events are the result of geological anomalies, advanced extraterrestrial activity, or interdimensional phenomena, the mine continues to captivate and mystify.

For now, the Broad Camp Crystal Mine remains a place of questions rather than answers. Its beams of light, magnetized objects, and alleged underground base challenge our understanding of reality and invite further exploration into the unknown.

Listen to the 'scariest sound in the world': Ancient Aztec Death Whistle that sounds like the 'scream of 1,000 corpses' STILL terrifies people to this day, study reveals

• READ MORE: How Poland's mysterious 'vampire' spent her final moments 

By WILIAM HUNTER

The wail of the Aztec Death Whistle was the last thing many human sacrifices ever heard before they met their untimely end.

The chilling noise is described as the 'scariest sound in the world', and is somewhere between a spooky gust of whistling wind and 'the scream of a thousand corpses'.

Now, a study has found that this instrument is just as terrifying for people today as it was 500 years ago.

Scientists from the University of Zurich played the sound of the Aztec Death Whistle to a group of volunteers and recorded how their brains responded.

Participants who heard it reported feeling frightened, while the brain scans showed that the sound puts the listener on high alert, activating neural regions associated with core emotions like rage, fear, and grief.

Researchers believe the whistles could have been used to frighten victims and onlookers during human sacrifice rituals.

Lead author Professor Sascha Frühholz told MailOnline: 'The sound is rough and high-pitched, and as listeners, you usually do not like such sounds.'

So, are you brave enough to listen to it?  

Aztec Death Whistles are clay instruments typically shaped like skulls which have been found in grave sites of ritual sacrifice victims dated from 1250 to 1521 AD

Aztec Death Whistles, or Skull Whistles, are a type of unusual musical instrument found in grave sites dating from 1250 to 1521 AD.

Their unusual skull-like shape baffled archaeologists for years until one plucky researcher decided to blow into the opening at the top of one artefact.

When played with force, the resulting sound was a cacophonous, piercing wail reminiscent of human screams.

Archaeologists aren't yet sure what these unusual instruments were used for but some suggest they could have either been used to terrify the enemy during battle or as part of human sacrifice rituals.

To learn more, the researchers decided to test how modern listeners who weren't familiar with the Aztec Death Whistle would respond to the sound.

Professor Frühholz said: 'Since the Aztec skull whistle sounds close to a human scream, we wanted to investigate if humans have the same negative and aversive response to Aztec death whistle sounds.'

A group of European participants were played recordings of genuine Aztec Death Whistles, replicas, and whistles of the researcher's own creation alongside a set of other recorded sounds. 

The participants were then asked to describe what they heard and how it made them feel while their brain activation was recorded by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). 

Almost universally, the sound produced a strong negative emotional response as well as a sense of urgency and arousal.

In terms of the effect on the listener, the Death Whistle was found to be most similar to firearms, sirens, angry voices, and shouts of pain or fear.

The researchers suggest that the Aztec Death Whistle might have been built to mimic some natural sounds like screams and reproduce the effect that this has on the listener.

Previous studies have shown that the death whistle works by producing multiple tones at once as air collides within its different chambers.

By analysing the acoustic profile of different whistles, the researchers found that the resulting 'noisy and rough' sound profile contains effects usually found in primate screams and 'terrifying music'.

The fear factor is made more intense by including tones typically found in human speech and shouts.

However, the researchers also noticed another interesting detail in the listeners' responses.

In addition to reporting how the sound made them feel, each participant was also asked to come up with a description for the sound. 

Participants who heard the Aztez Death Whistle (labelled in red as SW) reported experiencing high levels of negative emotions (valence), strong emotional arousal, and an intense feeling of urgency 

A human scream was the most common comparison. 

However, participants also referred to a number of artificial sounds like kettles, chainsaws, trains, or machines.

In their paper, published in Communications Psychology, the researchers suggest that this unusual mix of natural and unnatural could be part of why the Aztec Death Whistle is so scary.

Professor Frühholz says: 'With fMRI we found that the sounds have both an affective [emotional] nature and they have a more abstract and symbolic nature, which triggers associative mechanisms in the brain.'

When a listener heard the Death Whistle, this set off a flurry of activity in the brain's auditory processing regions as it tried to determine the origins of the sound.

This sudden activation tended to confuse the brain, leaving it momentarily stunned and confused.

The Aztecs may have exploited this shocking impact as a way of creating fear in an audience.

However, archaeologists are still unsure whether that audience was intended to be an approaching enemy army or a congregation of worshipers in a human sacrifice cult.

Researchers have found that the terrifying sound of the Aztec Death Whistle (pictured) is just as terrifying to modern listeners as it would have been to the Aztecs more than 500 years ago 

Since the sound is so scary it could be the the case that the Death Whistle was used in warfare but Professor Frühholz and his co-authors believe that the ritual explanation is more likely.

Aztec Death Whistles have been found in the hands of victims of ritual sacrifice in temples such as the Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl temple in Mexico City. 

Likewise, the skull imagery synonymous with the Aztec Death Whistle could portray Mictlantecuhtli, the Aztec Lord of the Underworld.

In their paper, Professor Frühholz and his co-authors write: 'Given both the aversive/scary and associative/symbolic sound nature as well as currently known excavation locations at ritual burial sites with human sacrifices, usage in ritual contexts seems very likely, especially in sacrificial rites and ceremonies related to the dead.

'Skull whistles might have been used to scare the human sacrifice or the ceremonial audience, but further cross-documentation is needed here.'

Mysterious object that appears in religious art that show Jesus really was magic

• READ MORE:  Researchers closer to finding room where Jesus ate Last Supper

By NIKKI MAIN SCIENCE REPORTER FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

The Bible details how Jesus brought a man back from the dead using the sound of his voice, but ancient artwork may show that Christ used a little bit of magic. 

A fourth-century painting of the story discovered in Rome shows Jesus holding what some archaeologists claimed is a magician's wand. 

Other paintings dating around the same time also depicts Christ holding a wand-like object while performing famous miracles like multiplying loaves of bread and healing the sick.

Ancient paintings of Jesus holding what appears to be a wand has led some researchers to believe early Christians thought of him as a magician. This image was painted in the fourth century, although the exact date is unknown, and was found at the Via Anapo catacomb in Rome

However, some researchers have suggested that these masterpieces actually depict Jesus holding a staff, which was likely portrayed as a way to connect him to the prophet Moses who was more well known at the time. 

Regardless, historians believe early Christians saw their Lord and Savior as a magician.

According to the Bible, Jesus performed miracles through the power of God and his ability to heal people and bring them back from the dead while also producing food and drink elevated him above Roman gods in the eyes of Christians.

The fantastical feats may have caused some people to turn to the superstitious belief that Jesus was a magician to explain his actions.

'I mean, here's this group that gets together in the morning and drinks wine and says it's blood and eats bread and says it's flesh,' Lee Jefferson, the chair of the religion program at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky told Live Science in 2020.

'You can probably understand why people thought it was superstitious.'

The belief that Jesus was a magician may have translated into paintings dating back to the early third century that depict Christ holding a wand, experts explained.

One of the earliest records of wands being used was in the 9th Century BC when people who practiced the ancient religion Zoroastrianism used wand-like objects made from small rods or sticks during sacred rituals.

One of the most referenced artworks was a fourth-century AD painting found in the Via Anapo catacomb in Rome, showing Jesus multiplying seven loaves of bread.

In one painting, Jesus holds a wand over the cadaver of Lazarus before he performs the miracle of raising him from the dead. This image was painted in the fourth century, although the exact date is unknown, and was found at the Catacomb of Via Latina in Rome

A carving is displayed on the door of the Santa Sabina Church in Rome showing Jesus using a wand to raise Lazarus from the dead and turning water into wine. The carving was created on a wooden door in 432 AD which is displayed in the Santa Sabina Church in Rome

In the painting which was discovered in 1578, he appears to be waving a wand over the bread, pointing it down toward the objects.

Another fourth-century painting was found in the Via Latina catacomb showing Jesus holding a thin wand in front of a shrine that contained the cadaver of Lazarus.

This is one of the most popular scenes depicted in early Christian funerary art, according to Biblical Archaeology. 

In John 11:4, the story says that Lazarus became sick and died, but when his sister Mary called on Jesus to come heal his friend, he told his disciples: 'This sickness is not to end in death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by it.'

Jesus chose not to heal Lazarus but to let him die so he could later raise him from the grave and the miracle would force his disciples to believe he was the son of God. 

A similar carving was also displayed on a wooden door on the Santa Sabina Church in Rome that depicts 18 scenes from the Old and New Testament.

The door was created in 432 AD, showing Jesus using a long object to perform miracles, including raising Lazarus from the dead and turning water into wine.

Despite the images, evidence suggests that most of Jesus' followers didn't perceive his actions as magic, but rather as miracles performed through God.

'You would not want your demigod to be called a magician because it makes them seem less powerful,' Jefferson told Live Science.

Christian figures, like the third-century scholar Origen, who was the head of a Christian university in Alexandria, defended Jesus against the philosopher Celsus' who was a vocal critic of Christianity and spread accusations that he was a magician. 

Origen 'spilled a lot of ink talking about how Jesus' wondrous deeds weren't magic because they were aimed at things like moral reformation and salvation instead of the sorts of parlor trickery displayed by marketplace sorcerers,' Dr Shaily Patel, a professor of early Christianity at Virginia Tech told the Daily Beast.

It is likely, however, that the artwork doesn't portray a wand at all but is a staff recognizant of other notable figures, according to experts.

Moses was one such person portrayed for using a staff to part the Red Sea and later used it to provide drinking water to Israelites during their escape from Egypt. 

At the time, people would have been familiar with Moses but wouldn't necessarily have known who Jesus was, experts have explained. 

To combat this, paintings may have been created of him performing miracles with a type of staff to connect him to the prophet.

'He's kind of like a new Moses,' Jefferson told Live Science.

A staff was recognized as a symbol of power, similar to how a scroll would have been associated with someone wise or well-read. 

'They see that person holding the object and they can understand,' Felicity Harley-McGowan, an art historian at Yale Divinity School told the outlet. 

'The staff is a sign of [Jesus'] authority.'

Earliest 'Jesus is God' inscription found in Israel deemed 'greatest discovery since the Dead Sea Scrolls'

• READ MORE: Mysterious object shows Jesus really was magic 

By NIKKI MAIN SCIENCE REPORTER FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

The earliest inscription declaring Jesus as God - deemed 'the greatest discovery since the Dead Sea Scrolls' - was uncovered beneath the floor of an Israeli prison and is now on display in America. 

The 1,800-year-old mosaic, discovered by an inmate of the Megiddo prison, features the ancient Greek writing: 'The god-loving Akeptous has offered the table to God Jesus Christ as a memorial.'

The 581-square-foot mosaic decorated the world's first prayer hall in 230 AD, confirming Christians believed Jesus was the son of God from the very beginning.

The Megiddo Mosaic also included some of the earliest images of fish, which experts believe reference the story in Luke 9:16 when Jesus multiplied two fish to feed a crowd of 5,000 people. 

The floor has been hidden under the prison since it was discovered in 2005, but has now been lent to a museum in Washington, DC, until July 2025.

Carlos Campo, CEO of the museum, hailed the mosaic as ' the greatest discovery since the Dead Sea Scrolls,' while his colleagues noted it was 'the most important archaeological discovery for understanding the early Christian church.'

'We truly are among the first people to ever see this, to experience what almost 2,000 years ago was put together by a man named Brutius, the incredible craftsman who laid the flooring here,' Campo said at the opening of the exhibition. 

The Megiddo Mosaic (pictured) was unearthed during the expansion of a high-security prison in Israel. The mosaic had an inscription at the top (pictured) that said: 'The god-loving Akeptous has offered the table to God Jesus Christ as a memorial'

The Megiddo Mosaic is currently on display at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC (pictured until July 2025

Alegre Savariego, curator of the exhibition, said: 'The mosaic presents groundbreaking physical evidence of the practices and beliefs of early Christians, including the first archaeological instance of the phrase, 'God Jesus Christ.'' 

The Megiddo Mosaic was found in the Jezreel Valley where Christians believe the final battle of the Biblical Armageddon in the Book of Revelations will occur. 

The excavation, conducted by archaeologists from the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA), took four years to recover the 581-square-foot mosaic floor.

The mosaic included the name of the Roman officer who commissioned the tile during the Roman occupation of Judea.

Researchers suggested that could prove Romans coexisted with Christians to some degree, despite the numerous stories of war and slaughter at the time.

An inscription on the mosaic read: 'Gaianus, a Roman officer, having sought honor, from his own money, has made the mosaic.'

The team also found a nearby Roman camp, providing more support of the peace between the two groups. 

The prayer hall, or church, was likely abandoned and covered up because the Roman Empire's Sixth Legion was transferred to Transjordan - a region located to the east of the Jordan River. 

The mosaic also contained the names of five women, highlighting the important role women played in the church. 

Aside from Akeptous, who was mentioned for her donation of a table to the prayer hall, the mosaic's inscription also says to 'remember Primilla and Cyriaca and Dorothea, and lastly, Chreste.'

Bobby Duke, director of the Scholars Initiative at the Museum of the Bible, said: 'This is arguably one of the most important archaeological discoveries for understanding the early Christian church.'

The mosaic was discovered while expanding a maximum-security prison located near the ancient city of Megiddo in the Jezreel Valley in 2005

The mosaic featured some of the earliest images of fish being used to represent Christianity, mirroring the story told in Luke 9:16 when Jesus multiplied two fish to feed a crowd of 5,000 people

'For example, the mosaic underscores the crucial role of women in the early church by the fact that five women are mentioned in it by name,' he continued.

'Truly, the mosaic presents a wealth of new data for church historians, like the Dead Sea Scrolls did for Bible scholars.'

The IAA said there isn't any information that explains why these women were mentioned, but it is highly unusual because God wasn't typically asked to remember individuals. 

'While they were clearly important to the community, the inscription does not tell us whether they were patrons of the community (like Akeptous), or martyrs, or honored for some other reason,' the Museum of the Bible said.

After the major archaeological find, the conservation department of the IAA cleaned and stabilized the mosaic, grouted and re-laid any loose tesserae and filled in the empty spaces with mortar and reburied the mosaic while they carried out their research.

IAA had to separate the floor, placing pieces in 11 crates that were shipped to the US earlier this year for the exhibit titled: 'The Megiddo Mosaic: Foundations of Faith.'

'You couldn't just lift the whole floor up,' Duke said.

'So ... they very intricately cut different pieces of the mosaic so that they didn't destroy any of the artwork. So, not all the pieces were the same size.

'So, even one of the crates that came into this gallery was about a thousand pounds.'

The Megiddo mosaic will return to Israel after the exhibit concludes and put on a permanent display at the exact site where it was discovered.

The Megiddo inmates will be relocated to another prison upon the mosaic's return.

The mosaic contained Greek inscriptions that include the names of five women, highlighting the importance of women in the church

In the year leading up to the mosaic's move to the Museum of the Bible, the IAA received criticism for allowing the a major piece of Christian history to be displayed at the museum.

Since it's doors opened in 2017, the museum has been forced to return thousands of artifacts including an ancient Mesopotamian tablet and thousands of clay scrolls that were looted from Iraq.

It was also forced to admit that several of the Dead Sea Scroll fragments displayed in its collection were modern forgeries.

'While some of the founders and actions of the museum are questionable, and the museum clearly has a very ideological agenda, I don't think a 'purist' agenda is very helpful here,' Prof. Aren Maeir, an archaeologist at Bar-Ilan University told Haaretz.com. 

'As long as everything is done by the letter of the law, I see no problem.'

Who are the Nephilim and what do they represent? Are they biblical giants? What does the term literally translate to, and why does the brief mention of them in the Book of Genesis show resemblance to other mythologies? The Nephilim have been a topic of great controversy. Many scholars, both independent and accredited, have dedicated much of their lives to answer these questions. It wasn’t until the discovery and translation of the Book of 1Enoch that we were finally given a better understanding of these Nephilim, but is it a proper understanding?

This detailed analysis will incorporate the theology during the proposed time of writing for the verses, grammatical study in Hebrew and Aramaic word forms, and even external influences that would have played a role in the region.

• Were All The Nephilim Giants Or Men Of Renown?
• Mighty Gilgamesh: Archetype Of The Nephilim

Some Grammatical Clues

In the past century, many independent scholars have taken the opportunity to exploit the Nephilim to their advantage. Zecharia Sitchin was one of those individuals, who proposed that the Nephilim were nothing more than a god-like race with the knowledge and technology to navigate the heavens, who came to earth and created mankind as slave labor mining rare materials. Sitchin had jumped on the chance to translate the Nephilim as: (1) those who came down from above, (2) those who were cast down, and (3) people of the fiery rockets. These made-up epithets are clearly ridiculous and groundless. The Hebrew verb for ‘to go’ or ‘to come down, descend’ is  yarad which shows no relation to the term in question. He then goes on to identify the Nephilim with the Sumerian deities, claiming that the Sumerians knew of their existence and that they came from a planet called Nibiru. According to Sitchin, Nibiru completed its rotation around our sun every 3600 or so earth years. The sources cited came from his mistranslated Mesopotamian inscriptions and cylinder seal impressions. Many others have tried to follow in Zecharia Sitchin’s footsteps, such as Alan Alford, but have quickly repealed their theories, claiming it was too outlandish of an idea. It was in his second book,  The Phoenix Solution, that Alan Alford retracted his ancient astronaut theories. Apparently, this made such a powerful impact that Zecharia Sitchin threatened Alan Alford with a 50 million dollar lawsuit on the grounds that Alford’s comments discredited Sitchin’s theories and destroyed his reputation.

Figure 1 - Stela depicting image of Baal Haddad in a smiting position.

Then there was Andrew Collins, using the sons of God and the Nephilim to hint at a forgotten race. This race allegedly knew and shared all the forbidden arts and sciences with humanity, thus leading them to their corruption and the Flood of Noah. Much of what Collins proposes, it seems, may be based on earlier works, such as that belonging to Sitchin. For example, Collins uses translations similar to Sitchin’s for the noun Nephilim.

In his book, From the Ashes of Angels, Collin’s clearly displays his lack of knowledge in biblical Hebrew; confusing the Nephilim with the sons of God, when it was the sons of God who supposedly had fallen (unto the daughters of men) and not the Nephilim. It would seem that most of these authors attempt to link the root word for the plural Nephilim with the Hebrew singular word of naphal. naphal means ‘to fall’ or ‘to fall in battle, by the sword’, ‘to be killed’, ‘to be fallen’ and also ‘to fall unto/ upon.’ All of these definitions display characteristics not held by the Nephilim or, as I will point out later in this article, the sons of God.

We first read of the Nephilim in Genesis 6:4. This is one of two verses to mention the Nephilim three times throughout the entire Pentateuch. Genesis 6:4 reads:

The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.

The biggest clues to the identification of the Nephilim will come from Numbers 13:33:

And there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come of the Nephilim; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

Taking an interpretation of the Nephilim as the ‘people of the fiery rockets’ again holds no credibility when examining the term itself and the surrounding grammar of Genesis 6:4 and Numbers 13:33. The word was left untranslated by the Revisers, the name of one of the Canaanite tribes. The Revisors have, in fact, translated the Hebrew gibborim, in Genesis 6:4, as ‘mighty men,’ which will be a key point in the coming conclusions. When the Old Testament was first translated to the Greek language, the word for Nephilim read gigantes, the Greek word for giants. This is confirmed in Numbers 13:33 with the description of the Israelites when compared to the race of giants.

It is extremely important for the reader to understand that in Hebrew grammar, the singular naphal cannot form the plural Nephilim. If we were to follow grammatical rules within the language, we would end up with the plural nophelim. Clearly this is not the same as Nephilim, and we can now see that it is impossible for naphal to be the root word used. A detailed analysis of the characteristics held by the Nephilim will further prove this in the section below. One other area of concern is that nophelim is not in the plural passive (perfect) form, but instead a plural active (imperfect), indicating that these beings are ‘falling’ and have not ‘fallen’. Now what have the Nephilim fallen from? The answer is nothing. If a link were to be established for someone(s) falling from God’s grace it would have to go to the sons of God as is apparent in the post-Exilic and not in the pre-Exilic literature. The biggest clue to the identification of the word’s root can be found in Numbers 13:33. The word Nephilim is used twice in this verse, but oddly enough, is spelled differently. Many have wondered what this could mean. In the first occurrence we find:

Tucker Carlson Says ‘There Are Forces That Are Not Human, Existing in a Spiritual Realm We Cannot See’

Tucker  Carlson believes that the U.S. government has entered into some agreement with entities thought to be aliens, who are not extraterrestrial but have always been present on Earth and maybe spiritual.

On Timcast IRL podcast, Carlson discusses the idea that there are non-human forces influencing human behavior, suggesting that these forces might exist in a spiritual realm. He mentions that many people refer to these beings as “dimensional beings” but expresses uncertainty about labeling them as angels or demons.

Carlson reflects on how people are influenced by good and evil forces beyond themselves, and he asserts that everyone, if introspective, can recognize these external influences. He also touches on the idea that creativity, particularly in art, might be driven by forces outside the individual, which artists often describe as “channeling.” Carlson implies that both positive and destructive acts are likely the result of these external spiritual forces acting upon people.

“So there are forces. That are not human, that do exist in a spiritual realm of some kind that we cannot see and that when you think about it, sort of make you think we live in an ant farm.”

Recently, Tucker Carlson said he was “physically mauled” by a demon a year and a half ago, in an assault that he says left him bleeding and with scars from “claw marks”.

“That’s what happened to me. I had a direct experience with it,” said Carlson. Asked if he was referring to journalism, Carlson responded: “No, in my bed at night. I got attacked while I was asleep with my wife and four dogs and mauled, physically mauled.”

Carlson, who said he still bears the scars, said his assailant was a “demon”. He added: “Or by something unseen that left claw marks on my sides.” He said at the time of the attack, he was asleep in bed. I was “totally confused, I woke up, and I couldn’t breathe, and I thought I was going to suffocate”, he said.

“I walked around outside and then I walked in and my wife and dogs had not woken up. And they’re very light sleepers. And then I had these terrible pains on my rib cage and on my shoulder, and I was just in my boxer shorts and I went and flipped on the light in the bathroom, and I had four claw marks on either side underneath my arms and on my left shoulder. And they’re bleeding.”

He added that he explained the encounter to an assistant, an evangelical Christian, who told him: “That happens, people are attacked in their bed by demons.” Carlson, who lives in the woods of Maine, did not say where the attack occurred, but called it a “transformative experience” that left him “seized with this very intense desire to read the Bible”.

In his 1969 book “Passport to Magonia: On UFOS, Folklore and Parallel Worlds,” Astronomer and UFO researcher Jacques Vallée argues for a “parallel universe co-existing with our own.” The idea was reiterated in Vallée’s subsequent writings. He summarized his objection in his 1990 paper “Five Arguments Against the Extraterrestrial Origin of Unidentified Flying Objects”:

1. Unexplained close encounters are far more numerous than required for any physical survey of the earth;
2. The humanoid body structure of the alleged “aliens” is not likely to have originated on another planet and is not biologically adapted to space travel;
3. The reported behavior in thousands of abduction reports contradicts the hypothesis of genetic or scientific experimentation on humans by an advanced race;
4. The extension of the phenomenon throughout recorded human history demonstrates that UFOs are not a contemporary phenomenon;
5. The apparent ability of UFOs to manipulate space and time suggests radically different and richer alternatives.

They are Jinn

In an interview with Whitley Strieber, former CIA officer Jim Semivan says he refers to the UFO, UAP, and Alien Phenomena as Jinn. He does not mean that in a religious way – credibility to the inter-dimensional hypothesis. (Source)

“This phenomenon does lie to you and it is very very deceitful at times. It will tell you things that sound wonderful but also make no sense and is it toying with us or is it using some kind of you know symbols that we don’t understand?“

I refer to them as a ‘Jinn’ because you know in Arab culture they’re sort of like us or they’re made out of quote-unquote fire or ether or whatever. But they also have the same kind of emotions but there’s good Jinn and there’s bad Jinn.”

Dr. Karla Turner claimed There Are Entities who can take our consciousness – out of our physical bodies, disable our control of our bodies, install one of their own entities, and use our bodies as vehicles for their own activities before returning our consciousness to our bodies. She died of Cancer within a year after her work was published.

Her extensive research into the subject revealed that aliens manipulate perception, control consciousness, cause unexplained illnesses and mental decline, and engage in gruesome activities in underground facilities.

Her findings highlight the alarming physical, psychological, and spiritual consequences faced by abductees, raising questions about the true nature and intentions of these extraterrestrial encounters.

In her book “Taken,” Karla Turner discussed the idea that some prominent abduction theorists state should be avoided — do not think of aliens as good and evil.

Dr. Turner claimed that “this cannot be done, nor should it be.” She continued that those who had been abducted have the right to know how their “participation” would be used by their abductors, under what circumstances and what reason would the abducted be “made a part of this agenda” since they have been “implanted, trained, and programmed to participate in some future scenario.” Don’t abductees have the right to know for what purpose “our minds, bodies, and souls will be used?”

Dr. Turner’s main concerns regarding alien abductions were the aliens’ cruelty towards abductees, both physically and mentally. Victims experienced traumatic events such as forced impregnation, painful miscarriages, and severe injuries.

She believed that the aliens had complete control over the minds of humans, using psychic technology to manipulate their perceptions and memories.

Ex-US Navy Officer Saw ‘Non-human Entities’ In His Bedroom

Matthew Roberts, a former cryptologist in the US Navy with 16 years of service, shared his experience and encounters with non-human entity during a Netflix series “Encounters.” He was present on the USS Theodore Roosevelt in 2015 during an event involving the now-famous “Gimbal footage.” (Click here to read the full article)

During his AMA on Reddit, Roberts described the non-human entities: “I saw ones that had blue skin and were tall. I saw very tall white ones that resembled Jack Skellington. I saw one that looked like a yard gnome. I saw some that appeared to radiate white light. I don’t know where they were from they never revealed that.”

Matthew Roberts explains that he never tried to film any of the encounters with non-human entities in his bedroom. When asked if he considered setting up a recording device, he mentions that these encounters often happen when individuals are in an altered state or when the entities appear in the sky with a craft, conveniently when the person does not have his cell phone.

He considered recording the experiences but decided against it. He reasons that it would not convince everyone, as some might think he faked it. Roberts believes the argument over the authenticity of any images would overshadow the main point, which is encouraging people to seek and have their own experiences with consciousness. He emphasizes that he does not need people to believe him; instead, he wants others to explore consciousness firsthand.

Roberts asserts that the truth of these experiences has been documented for thousands of years by various individuals, citing such authors as William Walker Atkinson, Mabel Collins, Joseph Campbell, Dr. John Mack, and Dr. Robert Moore. He challenges the notion that he could have orchestrated the biggest hoax in human history, suggesting that there may be something genuinely significant in these experiences.

He points to the wealth of evidence available for those willing to examine it, citing a podcast by Mark Gober called “Where is My Mind,” where accomplished scientists discuss their work on consciousness. Roberts believes that understanding consciousness surviving death is a crucial aspect of our existence, mentioning the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies (BICS) and the substantial prizes offered for evidence of consciousness after death.

He suggested that these entities seem to have a significant level of control over the experiences people have, which contributes to why some individuals perceive these encounters as malevolent or evil. He acknowledged that many people who invest time and money into gathering evidence of these phenomena often end up without conclusive results.

• READ MORE: Loch Ness skipper shares images of monster-like shape on sonar 

By MICHAEL HAVIS FOR MAILONLINE

Stunning footage of two mysterious humps prowling through the shallows of Loch Ness 'could not be anything but the monster'.

That's the verdict of Nessie hunter Eoin O'Faodhagain, who was watching the loch via webcam when he spotted something strange in the water.

Measuring an estimated 25ft in length – bigger than four average men laid end to end – the 'whopper of a beast' is too big to be any of the loch's normal residents.

Eoin said: 'Two sections of this creature can be visibly seen rising out of the water as it moves at a steady pace – a large front hump, and a larger second hump behind.

'Both humps are black to dark grey in colour, but visually striking in the environment.

'I was ecstatic and captivated by this large, fast-moving, unidentified animal out in the deep water of the loch.

'My only instinct was that this could not be anything other than the Loch Ness Monster.'

Mr O'Faodhagain, from County Donegal, Ireland, said the sighting was 'one for the record books'.

Stunning footage of two mysterious humps prowling through the shallows of Loch Ness 'could not be anything but the monster'

Eoin O'Faodhagain was watching the loch via webcam when he spotted something strange in the water

He continued: 'The creature is no less than 25 feet long. 

'It rises about three feet out of the water.

'There are no known creatures in Loch Ness that have dimensions like this one.

'The largest of the known creatures are seals, which can reach up to eight feet long, but this whopper of a beast outreaches any seal.'

The footage, taken on October 25, was captured using a webcam at the Clansman Hotel maintained by Visit Inverness Loch Ness (VILN).

It's a spot about four miles from the loch's northern shore.

Eoin, a veteran Nessie hunter, also spotted something in the water there in July – but he says this latest sighting is in a league of its own.

The 60-year-old said: 'As far as Nessie sightings go, you could not get any better unless the creature came out of the water and posed outside the Clansman.

The footage, taken on October 25, was captured using a webcam at the Clansman Hotel maintained by Visit Inverness Loch Ness (VILN)

'If this was 1933 and you captured this sighting on black and white camera film, it would be a classic sighting by now.'

The VILN webcams can be watched live online at visitinvernesslochness.com. 

The news comes shortly after skipper Shaun Slogg and maritime pilot Liam McKenzie, 29, stumbled upon a strange shape while doing their usual rounds at Cruise Loch Ness. 

On September 22, 2024, while preparing for another vessel's arrival, Sloggie's sonar flashed up.

The sonar indicated that a large object was lurking at a depth of around 98-metres. 

He described it as 'the biggest thing I've ever seen.'

With its elongated shape and distinct features hinting at air pockets, the team couldn't help but wonder if the sonar reading was tied to the infamous Loch Ness Monster.

'The strangeness of it was chilling – it's the sort of thing that leaves you speechless,' Slogg said. 

What IS the Loch Ness Monster?

Rumours of a strange creature living in the waters of Loch Ness have abounded over the decades, yet scant evidence has been found to back up these claims.

One of the first sightings, believed to have fuelled modern Nessie fever, came in May 2, 1933.  

On this date the Inverness Courier carried a story about a local couple who claim to have seen 'an enormous animal rolling and plunging on the surface'.

Another famous claimed sighting is a photograph taken in 1934 by Colonel Robert Kenneth Wilson.

It was later exposed as a hoax by one of the participants, Chris Spurling, who, on his deathbed, revealed that the pictures were staged.

Other sightings James Gray's picture from 2001 when he and friend Peter Levings were out fishing on the Loch, while namesake Hugh Gray's blurred photo of what appears to be a large sea creature was published in the Daily Express in 1933.

Robert Kenneth Wilson, a London physician, captured arguably the most famous image of the Loch Ness Monster. The surgeon’s photograph was published in the Daily Mail on April 21, 1934 - however it was later proven to be a fake 

The first reported sighting of the monster is said to have been made in AD565 by the Irish missionary St Columba when he came across a giant beast in the River Ness.

But no one has ever come up with a satisfactory explanation for the sightings - although in 2019, 'Nessie expert' Steve Feltham, who has spent 24 years watching the Loch, said he thought it was actually a giant Wels Catfish, native to waters near the Baltic and Caspian seas in Europe.

An online register lists more than 1,000 total Nessie sightings, created by Mr Campbell, the man behind the Official Loch Ness Monster Fan Club and is available at www.lochnesssightings.com. 

So what could explain these mysterious sightings? 

Many Nessie witnesses have mentioned large, crocodile-like scutes sitting atop the spine of the creature, leading some to believe an escaped amphibian may be to blame.

Native fish sturgeons can also weigh several hundred pounds and have ridged backs, which make them look almost reptilian.

Some believe Nessie is a long-necked plesiosaur - like an elasmosaur - that survived somehow when all the other dinosaurs were wiped out.

Others say the sightings are down to Scottish pines dying and flopping into the loch, before quickly becoming water-logged and sinking.

While submerged, botanical chemicals start trapping tiny bubbles of air.

Eventually, enough of these are gathered to propel the log upward as deep pressures begin altering its shape, giving the appearance of an animal coming up for air.

Scientists discover a ‘third state’ between life and death
Not alive, not dead, but a third state. Sounds spooky, but it’s the future of medicine. More specifically, this ‘third state’ is when the cells of an organism adopt new functions even after ‘death’. Or in other words, the cells are functioning, but the being is dead. And this spooky phenomenon is revolutionising synthetic biology as, usually, death is considered to be irreversible. But with this new discovery of a ‘third state,’ different cells from a range of organisms can be repurposed into biological ‘robots’. But what can they do? 

(Picture: Getty)

Scientists discover a ‘third state’ between life and death

In a review published in the journal Physiology, researchers are contemplating the implications of taking cells from organisms (dead or alive) and turning them into biological robots that have new functions. For example, researchers have managed to successfully create tiny 'robots' from human cells which could be used to heal wounds, regenerate tissue and treat diseases, known as anthrobots. In another instance, researchers from Tufts University in Massachusetts have also created xenobots from the cells of already dead frogs. The cells, despite coming from a dead organism, can self replicate and perform simple tasks 

(Picture: Getty)

Scientists discover a ‘third state’ between life and death
The creation of these biobots essentially points to the ‘third state’. In The Conversation, biologists Dr Peter Noble and Dr Alex Pozhitkov, co-authors of the review, wrote: ‘The third state challenges how scientists typically understand cell behaviour. While caterpillars metamorphosing into butterflies, or tadpoles evolving into frogs, may be familiar developmental transformations, there are few instances where organisms change in ways that are not predetermined. Tumours, organoids and cell lines that can indefinitely divide in a petri dish, like HeLa cells, are not considered part of the third state because they do not develop new function’ 

(Picture: Getty)

Scientists discover a ‘third state’ between life and death
So, to break it down even further, third state ‘beings’ are those that can undertake new functions after death. This means cancer cells are also excluded, since they don’t exhibit new functions either. Going back to the anthrobots, they were taken from human lung cells. But somehow they managed to repair damaged neuron cells placed in a nearby petri dish. They managed to move by using their own hair like projections, also known as cilia (Picture: Getty)

(Picture: Getty)

Scientists discover a ‘third state’ between life and death
Dr Noble and Dr Pozhitkov wrote: ‘Taken together, these findings demonstrate the inherent plasticity of cellular systems and challenge the idea that cells and organisms can evolve only in predetermined ways. Taken together, these findings demonstrate the inherent plasticity of cellular systems and challenge the idea that cells and organisms can evolve only in predetermined ways’ 

(Picture: Getty)

Scientists discover a ‘third state’ between life and death
Although the third state beings have semi-cheated death, they only last for no more than 60 days, and biograde when they’re dead – they are natural organisms, after all. Even so, 60 days is still a wonder since it's unclear how these repurposed cells are able to live so long after an organism dies, and we still don’t know the extent of their new functions 

(Picture: Getty)

Scientists discover a ‘third state’ between life and death
The authors give one hypothesis, however: ‘One hypothesis is that specialised channels and pumps embedded in the outer membranes of cells serve as intricate electrical circuits. These channels and pumps generate electrical signals that allow cells to communicate with each other and execute specific functions such as growth and movement, shaping the structure of the organism they form’ 

Xenobots can move, heal and interact with their environment on their own.

Diagram A shows an anthrobot building a bridge across a scratched neuron over the course of three days. Diagram B highlights the ‘stitch’ in green at the end of Day 3.

Tom DeLonge Claimed There’s A Massive Underground Pyramid In Alaska, Larger Than The Great Pyramid Of Giza, Potentially Suppressing Human Consciousness

In 2021, on the Peer Pleasure Podcast, Tom DeLonge claimed there is a huge underground pyramid beneath Alaska, bigger than the Great Pyramid of Giza that might be suppressing the consciousness of Human Beings. He said the pyramid is near Valdez, Alaska and had been studied for decades and alleged that people from the Pentagon and defense contractors have been involved in researching it.

According to him, the pyramid was discovered after seismic activity revealed an anomaly in the area, possibly after a large earthquake in Valdez. DeLonge claims that the pyramid might be “suppressing consciousness,” based on what a Pentagon contact reportedly told him. He adds that some information about the pyramid has been intentionally hidden, including a news piece that was supposedly suppressed.

He mentions hearing about this from people who were aware of the situation, some even speaking about it on their deathbeds. He also refers to the involvement of organizations like Bell Labs or AT&T in the pyramid’s discovery or study, but he’s uncertain about the details. Finally, he states that he has shared all he knows about the pyramid.

If you have not yet heard of the lost pyramid of Alaska, it is understandable. News of the structure has not crept into the mainstream media, but if you type “Alaska pyramid” into Bing’s search engine you will find the fictional structure has attracted plenty of attention from alternative and fringe media.

“World’s oldest pyramids found in Alaska shocks the scientific community,” New Earth Media headlined in 2017. “An underground pyramid giving out giant amounts of energy is being ‘covered up’ by the U.S. government, a documentary has revealed,” Daily Star reported in 2019.

“Traces of GIANT PYRAMID Beneath Alaska Uncovered by Journalist,” Russia’s, state-owned Sputnik News disclosed before going on to claim that “a nuclear blast that occurred in China nearly 30 years ago apparently led to a surprising discovery hundreds of kilometers away, in Alaska, where US government seismometers detected some peculiar geological anomalies, which in turn led a number of dedicated enthusiasts to pursue claims of a massive pyramid located far below the surface of the frozen peninsula.”

Sputnik cited as its source “the History Channel’s Ancient Aliens TV show journalist Linda Moulton Howe (who) was contacted by an ex-naval worker who told her on condition of anonymity that his father, an engineer, was able to see the pyramid while he was working on a top-secret government project.”

All these things would be easy to spot in the wild and remote areas of Alaska. The story from Sputnik mentioned a Naval officer who supposedly said there was a large pyramid and that they “would go down to the base of a huge pyramid using the elevators.”

However, building elevators that go hundreds of feet underground would be a major construction project. This would be something that small planes flying over the area could easily see. Small, single-engine aircraft are as common in Alaska as cars are in the lower 48 states. Planes fly almost everywhere, all the time.

While Alaska has grown, and fewer people now own planes, the state still has six times as many private pilots and 16 times more planes per capita than the rest of the U.S., according to the Alaska Department of Transportation. The wild, undeveloped land of the state makes it easier, not harder, for planes to spot large construction projects from above. But those who believe in the idea of a hidden pyramid (or pyramids) in Alaska don’t see it that way.

As writer Anthony Tyler said in an article for The Last American Vagabond, “good parts of Alaska are ‘totally uninhabitable under their current climate conditions…and the government presence overall in the state is pretty overwhelming, with an Air-Force/Army joint base nearly the size of Anchorage right outside of the city itself.’”

He argued that it would actually make sense for the government to hide secret facilities in such remote areas. Tyler writes, “It would almost seem silly for the government to not utilize these tactical advantages.” He then raises the question, “Why can’t people see this from the sky?” The answer, according to him, is because “the pyramid is supposedly located underground.” And, even more surprisingly, he claims that it’s said to be “four times the size of Giza.”

Tyler even speculated on how the pyramid could have ended up hidden, saying that “the ability for an earthquake to subsequently collapse the pyramid in a sort of catacomb underneath the Earth’s surface would be theoretically possible if one took into account Charles Hapgood’s Earth crust Displacement Theory.” He admits, though, that “even this is a wild and unlikely truth.” Instead, the legend suggests that the pyramid is thousands of years old and “was not built by humans.” (Source)

During a podcast with Daniel P Carter of BBC Radio 1 Rock, DeLonge disclosed that he has a secret official Pentagon document from a UFO program that shows telekinesis is a real ability. He believes that telekinesis has been proven in the lab and that consciousness precedes matter, and once we discover that, life is going to get very interesting.

He suggests that we have the ability to heal ourselves and create new types of Sciences and Engineering tweets. He also believes that telepathy is going to be a part of it, and that they have found an area in the brain that they believe is where telepathy happens. He thinks that once people accept all of the stuff that they have been talking about, it’s going to change the world. Below is the transcript of his conversation with Carter:

“I always tell people there is this really cool document (that I have) that was a part of the UFO program where they were studying a kid in China who can move objects with his mind. He is around 10 years old, so they wanted to figure out how that’s possible, and they recreated it in the lab.

I have the whole Department of Defense document, and it goes through it and says they were able to put a piece of paper in a glass jar, screw the lid on it, and move the paper through the lid and then six feet across the floor, all with their mind. 100 people can do this, only 10 have mastered it, and it was just wild.

So telekinesis has been proven in the lab, but no one knows about it. I’m like, to be able to move things with the force, like in Star Wars, is a big deal. It sounds ridiculous, that’s why, and within the current paradigm, it sounds ridiculous. I’m sure, or you won’t remember, but we had a conversation at the Reading Festival many years ago where I think I probably came across as a total maniac, even to someone as open-minded as yourself. But, I was talking about reading a bunch of different things, which means nothing, but I was looking at different realms of consciousness because that’s the basis of everything I believe.

I believe that consciousness precedes matter and I highly agree with you. Because the current paradigm is that consciousness is a facet that’s created by matter, which is just this weird thing that’s come about because our brains are complicated and that’s nonsense. I think it’s exactly the opposite and once we discover that stuff, life is going to get very interesting.

Once we discover that mind over matter, not the other way around, we will have the ability to heal ourselves, create new types of Sciences and Engineering, and become a civilization where telepathy is a part of it. I believe that’s all going to happen. There is one person, who was up for the Nobel last year, is one of the top geneticists in the world, at one of the Ivy League schools that we are working with, who worked on part of the UFO program at the Pentagon. I was talking to him, and they found an area in the brain that they believe is where telepathy happens, and he believes he can create something to enhance it by a thousand times, like some type of drug that targets that area of the brain.

So, that’s the thing, people do think it’s ridiculous, but not the people who have an open enough mind to research and jump in. These guys are like World leading PhDs, and that’s been the kind of the story of my life, is everything I’ve told, even on Rogan, is not made up, it’s coming from somewhere, and I can’t say where it’s coming from, but at the end of the day, it’s all real. I think it’s going to be a very exciting time once people accept all of the stuff that we’ve been talking about here on this interview, I think it’s going to really change the world.”

Moreover, as in the January 2022 Thrasher Magazine issue, DeLonge was asked: “Would you say UFOs are driven by aliens or do you think it’s more like a drone?” He replied: “I think both.” He suggested that it is important to note that while studying UFOs, we must be aware of the fact that they could be remotely controlled and may have occupants. (Source)

“I think the biggest misconception is that they are coming from other planets. Evidence doesn’t really support that. The evidence supports that it’s dimensional and that it’s parallel timelines that exist with frequency. It’s really complicated, different, and interesting. But once you understand that, you have no way out of reexamining the religious world and wondering what the Star of Bethlehem really was,” DeLonge explained.

Het raadsel van de Sfinx is het oudste enigma over de menselijke conditie: ken je de betekenis ervan?

door Janine

Carole Raddato/Wikimedia Commons - CC BY-SA 2.0

Mensen zijn al sinds de oudheid gefascineerd door puzzels en raadsels, zozeer zelfs dat ze vandaag de dag nog steeds van dit tijdverdrijf genieten.

Hoewel we niet precies kunnen vaststellen wanneer deze passie begon, weten we dat een van de eerste bekende enigma’s het beroemde raadsel van de Sfinx is.

Het is een episode die deel uitmaakt van de mythe van Oedipus en die ook vandaag de dag, na duizenden jaren, nog steeds fascineert.

En ondanks het feit dat dit raadsel bij veel mensen bekend is, verbergt het nog steeds betekenissen die het onderzoeken waard zijn.

Raadsel van de Sfinx: het verhaal

Het Enigma van de Sfinx is een van de beroemdste episodes uit de Griekse mythologie en in het bijzonder uit de mythe van Oedipus. Zoals we zullen zien, past het verhaal perfect in de reeks gebeurtenissen die ertoe zullen leiden dat de jonge Oedipus zijn voorspelling en zijn lot vervult.

In de Griekse mythologie is de Sfinx een wezen met het lichaam van een leeuw, het hoofd van een vrouw en de vleugels van een vogel die in de buurt van de stad Thebe leeft. Aan voorbijgangers legt het wezen een raadsel voor dat beroemd is geworden als het raadsel van de Sfinx, hier in een van zijn bekendste varianten:

Wat is het dier dat 's ochtends op vier benen loopt, 's middags op twee en 's avonds op drie?

Wat is het antwoord?

Het antwoord op het raadsel van de Sfinx

Geen van de voorbijgangers kan een antwoord vinden en daarom kan hij zijn weg niet vervolgen.

Op een dag wordt Oedipus echter geconfronteerd met het mythologische wezen dat hem, zoals gewoonlijk, ook het raadsel voorlegt. Oedipus denkt er even over na en geeft dan zijn antwoord:

Het dier is de mens, die zich als kind op vier benen voortbeweegt, als volwassene rechtop op twee voeten, en als oude man een stok nodig heeft om zich voort te bewegen, het derde been.

De Sfinx kan zich alleen maar overgeven en de jonge Oedipus laten passeren, die dan Thebe kan binnengaan. Maar dat is nog niet alles, want juist door het verslaan van de Sfinx zal Oedipous koning van Thebe worden.

Enigma van de Sfinx: de betekenis

Project Gutenberg - Public Domain

Tegenwoordig is het raadsel van de Sfinx zo beroemd dat iedereen het antwoord kent. Niet iedereen is zich echter bewust van de betekenis ervan, die diepgaand en symbolisch is en verband houdt met de menselijke conditie. Dit raadsel doet in feite denken aan concepten als:

De cyclus van het leven. Het menselijk bestaan ​​is opgedeeld in drie grote fasen, terwijl het leven van de mens wordt afgebeeld als een hele dag, van zonsopgang tot zonsondergang.

Zelfkennis. Om het raadsel van de Sfinx op te lossen, moet ieder mens zichzelf begrijpen voordat hij een antwoord kan vinden. Om de Sfinx te verslaan moet je zelfbewust zijn.

Wijsheid en verlossing. Kennis wordt gezien als een sleutel om de beproevingen en gevaren van het leven te overwinnen: dankzij zijn antwoord redt Oedipus Thebe en de Thebanen.

Technisch gezien kunnen we nog een andere hypothese naar voren brengen. Het enigma van de Sfinx is het bewijs dat kennis ook tot ondergang kan leiden, zoals Oedipus uit de eerste hand zal ervaren zodra hij koning van Thebe wordt.

Het tweede raadsel van de Sfinx

Zoals we al zeiden kent iedereen het raadsel van de Sfinx, maar niemand weet dat sommige versies van de mythe ook een tweede raadsel bevatten.

Nadat het mythologische wezen één keer was verslagen, zou het Oedipus een tweede, nog ingewikkelder raadsel hebben gesteld:

Er zijn twee zussen: de eerste zet de ander op de wereld, en zij baart op haar beurt de eerste. Wie zijn het?

Opnieuw denkt Oedipus hier een tijdje over na en geeft dan zijn antwoord, dat het juiste is: de twee zussen zijn dag en nacht. Om te begrijpen waarom, moeten we onthouden dat “dag” en “nacht” in het klassieke Grieks vrouwelijk zijn.

Net als bij zijn eerste raadsel stelt de Sfinx dus ook hier een raadsel over diepzinnige concepten als de cyclische aard van de tijd. 

In ons geval kunnen we eenvoudigweg erkennen dat deze raadsels helemaal niet zo eenvoudig op te lossen zijn, tenzij we buiten de gebaande paden denken. Of Oedipus zijn.

A strange image has been circulating across social media in Thailand, showing a large, dark pillar-like structure mysteriously appearing in the sky over Ubon Ratchathani. According to the photographer, the picture was taken on Sunday, October 20, 2024, while they were trying to capture the "beautiful, colorful sky.

This peculiar sighting isn't entirely unprecedented. Similar strange phenomena have been reported before. On October 7, 2015, a mysterious "floating city" with skyscrapers appeared in the clouds over Foshan, Guangdong province in China. Again, on March 18, 2016, ghostly buildings were seen above the sea along the port of Dalian, in Liaoning Province, China, lingering in the sky for several minutes. 

Most recently, on September 11, 2020, an eerie image resembling the Hogwarts School from Harry Potter was spotted hovering over modern buildings in Jinan, Shandong Province. On July 14, 2022, a bizarre occurrence was also witnessed by residents in Haikou, Hainan, where a mysterious floating city appeared in the sky. 

Scientists suggest that these events are most likely optical illusions, with mirages being the leading theory. Mirages occur when light rays bend, causing distant objects or parts of the sky to appear displaced. One specific type, known as a Fata Morgana, can create towering, distorted images of distant objects, contributing to these surreal sights. 

Although the sightings between 2015 and 2022 were witnessed by many, the photographer in Thailand later realized that the mysterious pillar hadn't been visible to the naked eye at the time. This discovery has led some to speculate that the phenomenon might have been caused by a Project Blue Beam test, holographic technology, or even a temporary vortex connected to a parallel universe.

Many unusual phenomena are witnessed in the sky, ranging from UFOs and mysterious orbs to figures from parallel universes. One notable incident occurred during a recent thunderstorm from an unknown location when amidst the raging storm, a powerful flash of lightning illuminates the night sky, revealing the haunting silhouette of a demon, caught mid-air. 

While this eerie vision was likely a result of the lightning itself, some claim it resembled Raijin, the Shinto god of lightning and thunder, a chaotic being born of death who brings the world vital rains as well as chaos and destruction . 

Regardless of the true nature of this event, it serves as a reminder that countless mysterious phenomena exist on and around our planet. Whether tied to the afterlife, parallel universes, intelligent extraterrestrial life, or folklore with roots in truth, most of these occurrences remain unexplained.

This Physicist Claims Human Consciousness Comes from Hidden Dimensions of the Universe & suggests Jesus could be a Hyperdimensional Being

Physicist Michael Pravica claims that human consciousness arises from hidden dimensions of the universe rather than solely from brain activity. He suggests that Jesus could be a hyperdimensional being, as referenced in the Bible. According to him, our consciousness has the ability to transcend the physical world during moments of heightened awareness.

Dr. Michael Pravica’s theory is about the idea that the universe has more dimensions than the four we know: height, length, width, and time. He explains this concept using a hypothetical scenario involving a two-dimensional being. “Imagine you’re a two-dimensional being living in a two-dimensional world, like a character in a comic book,” he stated. As a three-dimensional sphere passes through, it would appear as a dot that grows and shrinks, illustrating how limited perceptions can hinder understanding of higher dimensions.

Michael Pravica is an expert in general physics, specializing in high-pressure  science, X-ray spectroscopies, and nuclear magnetic resonance. He studies matter under extreme conditions, focusing on high pressure, temperature, and radiation, while also advocating for science through media outreach.

Dr. Pravica has developed innovative concepts like “useful hard X-ray chemistry” for novel chemical reactions and Ion Beam Nuclear Transmutation Doping for semiconductor doping. He holds a Ph.D. and M.A. in Physics from Harvard University and a B.S. in Physics and Applied Mathematics from the California Institute of Technology.

Hyperdimensionality, Bible & Jesus!

Dr. Pravica concept ties into the theory of hyperdimensionality, or the idea that our universe is not just made up of the three dimensions we perceive. Instead, the universe might actually be part of a much larger nexus with hidden dimensions, he suggests.

If this controversial theory turns out to be true, we would have to accept not only that some beings may be residing outside the physical realm, free from the limitations of space and time, but also that our consciousness might have a similar capacity, He claims.

Dr. Pravica is an Orthodox Christian who earned a Ph.D. from Harvard. He thinks hyperdimensionality is a special way to connect his scientific knowledge with his religious beliefs. This idea puts him outside traditional scientific views, as he takes common ideas to new extremes to explore complex topics.

He believes that hyperdimensionality is more common than we realize. For instance, he suggests that Jesus could be a hyperdimensional being, among others. “According to the Bible, Jesus ascended into heaven 40 days after being on Earth. How do you ascend into heaven if you’re a four-dimensional creature?” Dr. Pravica asks. But, if you’re hyperdimensional, it’s very easy to travel from our familiar world into heaven, which could be a world of higher or infinite dimensions, he says. (Source)

Pravica believes that we all have the ability to connect with higher dimensions when we use our brains in certain ways. This can happen when we create art, do scientific work, think about deep questions, or even explore different places in our dreams

During these times, our awareness goes beyond the physical world and connects with these higher dimensions, which then inspire us with new ideas and creativity. Pravica says, “The fact that we can imagine dimensions beyond the four we see is a special gift… it goes beyond just biology.”

This idea of our consciousness connecting with higher dimensions relates to advanced physics theories like string theory.

String theory suggests that everything in the universe, from tiny particles to the forces between them, is made up of tiny, vibrating strings. The way these strings vibrate in hidden dimensions creates all the different particles and forces we see. Pravica explains, “String theory is basically about understanding how the universe is built on a very small scale.”

Hyperdimensionality might help us understand why spacetime is curved. This means that space and time bend around huge objects like stars or planets, creating gravity. Pravica suggests that if spacetime is curved, it could be because of a higher dimension.

Many physicists believe in the idea of higher dimensions, but not everyone agrees with Pravica’s thoughts on how hyperdimensionality connects to consciousness. Some scientists might even see these ideas as very unconventional or as an extreme logical argument that doesn’t hold up.

Skepticism

Dr. Pravica believes in a view of God that fills in the gaps where  science doesn’t have answers. Stephen Holler, a physics professor at Fordham University, explains that this way of thinking is not helpful. It stops people from being curious and learning more about the world. Instead of saying “I don’t know,” people should see that admitting ignorance is a chance to learn.

Holler gives an example from history to show how science improves our understanding. In the past, people thought the Earth was at the center of the universe (the geocentric model). To explain the movement of planets, they created complicated ideas like epicycles, which were small circles added to the larger paths of planets around Earth. This made things confusing and delayed the acceptance of the correct model, where the sun is at the center (the heliocentric model). Holler points out that while exploring new ideas can be exciting, we should be careful not to get lost in unnecessary complexity that doesn’t reflect reality.

Moreover, the limitations of current technology, such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), pose challenges to exploring these dimensions. The LHC, which smashes particles at high speeds, allows physicists to study fundamental particles but cannot access the high-dimensional strings predicted by quantum physics. Holler states that “not even the most powerful particle accelerator in the world can provide real proof that these dimensions exist,” reinforcing the need for concrete evidence.

Agree with Dr. Pravica or not but there is more to consciousness. Billionaire Robert Bigelow the only billionaire who spent millions of dollars searching for the soul or consciousness after death, and what he found might disturb you. We are all servants of a supreme consciousness. He claims that G-LOC makes our consciousness leave the body, allowing us to see beyond the room while being outside the body.

In an interview with Jeffrey Mishlove, billionaire Robert Bigelow discusses how out-of-body experiences can be triggered artificially. He learned about this from an Air Force general who had such an experience during centrifuge training. In this training, people endure high gravitational forces until they pass out. The general described how, after one session, he saw himself from above, observing his body walking and hearing conversations he wouldn’t normally hear. Separately, in 1962, American engineers found unusual electromagnetic signals aimed at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, leading the Pentagon to start a secret program to replicate these effects. Years later, the U.S. studied the Soviet interest in controlling human behavior through psychic means, fearing it was a threat.

The U.S. military has conducted extensive research into this potentially dangerous phenomenon and has officially named the experience “G-LOC.” The popular television show Sightings did an entire segment on G-LOC-induced OBEs that was titled “Simulated Out-of-Body Experiences.” Several U.S. military pilots participated in an experiment where G-LOC was created in a NASA centrifuge. Each interviewed pilot reported that he had passed out and then described a detailed out-of-body state of consciousness.”— The Secret of the Soul: Using Out-of-Body Experiences to Understand Our True Nature by William Buhlman. (Source)

Even though Holler identifies as nonreligious and an atheist, he acknowledges that spiritual beliefs that are consistent with established physical principles can strengthen both faith and science. Still, he says that “hyperdimensionality borders on science fiction.”

Dr. Pravica has faith that, within his children’s lifetime, we’ll figure out a way to generate the incredibly high energies required to investigate other dimensions. Meanwhile, he remains a vocal supporter of hyperdimensionality.

“I see no point otherwise,” he says. “Why study? Why live?” Hyperdimensionality gives the physicist a purpose, a happiness that “transcends this universe.”

The shocking official CIA documents on human consciousness that says Consciousness is not a part of our body at all, it’s stored in our brain, but not a part of it. Our consciousness (us) is its own being, a ghost version of us.

Terrifying 'skyquakes' are being heard around the world including the US - and scientists don't know what they are

• READ MORE:  NASA analyzing mysterious flash and sonic boom over Minnesota

By Nikki Main Science Reporter For Dailymail.Com

Mysterious 'skyquakes' have been heard around the world for more than 200 years, but scientists have yet to uncover the cause and origin of the bizarre noises.

The sounds could be mistaken for a gunshot or a car backfiring, and have been heard in areas ranging from Belgium and Japan to the Finger Lakes region in New York.

Scientists have tried to uncover where the resounding booms are coming, proposing theories like a meteor exploding in the atmosphere, military exercises, quarry blasts and distant storms or earthquakes. 

A strange skyquake has shaken the world since the early 1800s, causing scientists to speculate what could be the cause. They have considered earthquakes, military exercises and storm blasts - but none seem to be the root cause

The first skyquakes were documented in 1811 after people in New Madrid, Missouri heard the strange sounds during a 7.2-magnitude earthquake.

Residents reported hearing 'artillery-like sounds' before or during the quake hit.

Similar noises were then reported during an earthquake in Charleston, South Carolina in August 1886, which were heard for weeks afterward the 7.3-magnittude.

The skyquakes were described them as a 'roaring sound' or 'loud detonations.'

These noises have also been labeled as Lake Guns or Seneca Guns, after Seneca Lake in central New York state which also experienced the phenomena in 1850. 

James Fenimore Cooper, who lived in Seneca Lakes during one of these skyquakes, described the experience in his short story 'The Lake Gun.'

'It is a sound resembling the explosion of a heavy piece of artillery, that can be accounted for by none of the known laws of nature,' Cooper wrote. 

'The report is deep, hollow, distant and imposing. The lake seems to be speaking to the surrounding hills, which send back the echoes of its voice in accurate reply.' 

In the years that followed, the booms were unidentifiable due to their random timing and were unaffiliated with any other natural events.

It wasn't until 2020 that scientists started using seismic data obtained from the EarthScope Transportable Array (ESTA) since 2013. 

ESTA is a network of more than 400 seismic stations across the US that detects earthquakes, volcanoes and landslides. 

A team of researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill cross-referenced ESTA's data with news articles to determine if the noises were caused by earthquakes.

'Generally speaking, we believe this is an atmospheric phenomenon – we don't think it's coming from seismic activity,' Eli Bird who, a researcher who was involved in the study told Live Science at the time.

'We're assuming it's propagating through the atmosphere rather than the ground.'

The researchers speculated that another possibility could be bolides - which are space rocks that explode when they hit the Earth's atmosphere.

Bird said another possibility could be oceanic events like large waves crashing offshore or thunder cracking over the ocean.

'The atmospheric conditions could be such that that gets amplified in a particular direction, or is primarily affecting this localized area,' he told Live Science.

However, despite their efforts, seismologists have still been unable to definitively pinpoint where the skyquakes are coming from.

Residents in 15 Alabama counties were shocked by a boom in November 2017, prompting them to call 911 operators in fear.

The National Weather Service in Birmingham informed people that they couldn't clearly explain the noise and satellite imagery and radar scans didn't show signs of an explosion in the region. 

The agency posted on X at the time a similar sentiment that is still being relayed today: 'We don't have an answer, and we can only hypothesize with you.'

Has Nessie finally been FOUND? Seasoned Loch Ness skipper shares images of monster-like shape caught on sonar

• READ MORE: NASA is asked to help in the search for the Loch Ness Monster

By Shivali Best For Mailonline 

It's the mythical creature that has captured the attention of people around the world for decades.

And now the search for the Loch Ness monster has been taken up a gear.

Shaun Sloggie, a seasoned Loch Ness skipper, was cruising across the loch when he spotted a mysterious shape on sonar. 

While its source remains unclear, Sloggie, 30, admits he's 'never seen anything like it'.

'The strangeness of it was chilling – it's the sort of thing that leaves you speechless,' he said.  

Shaun Sloggie, a seasoned Loch Ness skipper, was cruising across the Loch when he spotted a mysterious shape on sonar

The sonar indicated that a large, object was lurking at a depth of around 98-metres, described by the stunned skipper as 'the biggest thing I've ever seen'

Slogg and maritime pilot Liam McKenzie, 29, were doing their usual rounds at Cruise Loch Ness when they stumbled upon the strange shape.

On September 22, 2024, while preparing for another vessel's arrival, Sloggie's sonar flashed up.

The sonar indicated that a large object was lurking at a depth of around 98-metres. 

He described it as 'the biggest thing I've ever seen.'

With its elongated shape and distinct features hinting at air pockets, the team couldn't help but wonder if the sonar reading was tied to the infamous Loch Ness Monster.

It's the mythical creature that has captured the attention of people around the world for decades. And now the search for the Loch Ness monster has been taken up a gear (artist's impression) 

Despite returning to the scene to investigate, the mysterious contact had vanished, leaving the team baffled

'We've seen all sorts of fish that shouldn't be here, but this? This was different,' Sloggie said.

Despite returning to the scene to investigate, the mysterious contact had vanished, leaving the team baffled.

Sloggie admitted: 'We're not sonar experts, but I've never seen anything like it.'

Spookily, the last major sonar contact in Loch Ness occurred almost exactly four years ago, on September 24, 2020. 

The news comes shortly after a photographer revealed 'compelling' photographs of what she suggests is the mythical Loch Ness Monster, after keeping them a secret for five years. 

With its elongated shape and distinct features hinting at air pockets, the team couldn't help but wonder if the sonar reading was tied to the infamous Loch Ness Monster

Chie Kelly, 52, took the pictures of the creature from Scottish folklore half a decade ago but did not share them out of fear of public ridicule.

The first 15 images were revealed last year and now The Cryptid Factor podcast has released and analysed all 71 frames. It hoped that the photographs taken by Ms Kelly, who works as a translator, would spark debate in investigators around the world.

The images have been put into a video and appear to show something moving across the loch in the Highlands.

Despite many images of the so-called monster - including a famous photograph taken in 1934 by Colonel Robert Kenneth Wilson - proven to be fakes, it has not stopped tourists flocking to the area each year in hope of seeing the mythical beast.

What IS the Loch Ness Monster?

Rumours of a strange creature living in the waters of Loch Ness have abounded over the decades, yet scant evidence has been found to back up these claims.

One of the first sightings, believed to have fuelled modern Nessie fever, came in May 2, 1933.  

On this date the Inverness Courier carried a story about a local couple who claim to have seen 'an enormous animal rolling and plunging on the surface'.

Another famous claimed sighting is a photograph taken in 1934 by Colonel Robert Kenneth Wilson.

It was later exposed as a hoax by one of the participants, Chris Spurling, who, on his deathbed, revealed that the pictures were staged.

Other sightings James Gray's picture from 2001 when he and friend Peter Levings were out fishing on the Loch, while namesake Hugh Gray's blurred photo of what appears to be a large sea creature was published in the Daily Express in 1933.

Robert Kenneth Wilson, a London physician, captured arguably the most famous image of the Loch Ness Monster. The surgeon’s photograph was published in the Daily Mail on April 21, 1934 - however it was later proven to be a fake 

The first reported sighting of the monster is said to have been made in AD565 by the Irish missionary St Columba when he came across a giant beast in the River Ness.

But no one has ever come up with a satisfactory explanation for the sightings - although in 2019, 'Nessie expert' Steve Feltham, who has spent 24 years watching the Loch, said he thought it was actually a giant Wels Catfish, native to waters near the Baltic and Caspian seas in Europe.

An online register lists more than 1,000 total Nessie sightings, created by Mr Campbell, the man behind the Official Loch Ness Monster Fan Club and is available at www.lochnesssightings.com. 

So what could explain these mysterious sightings? 

Many Nessie witnesses have mentioned large, crocodile-like scutes sitting atop the spine of the creature, leading some to believe an escaped amphibian may be to blame.

Native fish sturgeons can also weigh several hundred pounds and have ridged backs, which make them look almost reptilian.

Some believe Nessie is a long-necked plesiosaur - like an elasmosaur - that survived somehow when all the other dinosaurs were wiped out.

Others say the sightings are down to Scottish pines dying and flopping into the loch, before quickly becoming water-logged and sinking.

While submerged, botanical chemicals start trapping tiny bubbles of air.

Eventually, enough of these are gathered to propel the log upward as deep pressures begin altering its shape, giving the appearance of an animal coming up for air.

Are we living in a simulation? Scientist claims we're simply characters in an advanced AI world - and says the proof is hidden in the BIBLE

• Passages from the Bible support the simulation hypothesis, physicist claims
• READ MORE: These everyday clues seem to suggest we're living in a simulation 

By Jonathan Chadwick For Mailonline 

If you feel like you're living in a convincing virtual reality akin to The Matrix, a scientist thinks you may well be right.

Melvin Vopson, an associate professor in physics at the University of Portsmouth, claims our entire universe may be an advanced computer simulation. 

And the proof that this so-called simulation hypothesis is correct may be hiding in plain sight in the Bible.

Professor Vopson told MailOnline: 'The bible itself tells us that we are in a simulation and it also tells us who is doing it.

'It is done by an AI – an artificial intelligence.' 

Professor Vopson points to the Gospel of John, one of the first four books of the New Testament, the second part of the Christian Bible

Professor Vopson points to the Gospel of John, one of the first four books of the New Testament, the second part of the Christian Bible. 

Gospel of John opens with the powerful statement: 'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.'

The professor says this verse has 'deep theological significance in Christian doctrine', but it also carries 'intriguing implications' when considered in the context of the universe as a simulation. 

He argues that 'the Word' in this famous sentence refers to the underlying computer code that governs and controls the simulation. 

As anyone who has seen The Matrix will know, any computer simulation, big or small, consists of letters and numbers that write the rules for the entire creation. 

The academic further argues that 'the Word was God' could mean that God is part of the simulation, rather than separate from it. 

In other words, the entity that is controlling the whole thing – God – is written into the code too. 

Professor Vopson explains: 'The code running the simulation is not separate from the divine, but rather an integral part of it, perhaps an AI.'

In the blockbuster movie The Matrix, protagonist Neo, played by Keanu Reeves, discovers we're living in a simulated reality. By the end of the film, Neo is able to see the simulated world for what it is - computer code (pictured)

The simulated universe hypothesis proposes that what humans experience is actually an artificial reality, much like a computer simulation, in which they themselves are constructs. It formed the basis for the 1999 film The Matrix starring Keanu Reeves (pictured as his character wakes up in the real world)

Gospel of John goes on to say: 'All things were made by him, and without him was not anything made...'

Again, this statement supports the simulated universe theory, the professor suggests. 

'It implies a Creator who brought the simulated universe into existence through the Word (i.e. the code)' he says.

'It suggests that the act of creation, as described in the Bible, could be analogous to a divine act of programming and simulation.' 

Arguably, the theory offers an answer to a question that many Christians struggle with – how did God create the universe in six days?

If the theory's to be believed, he did so by creating a simulated reality encapsulated in a computer programme – something we know to be possible. 

The simulation theory 

Professor Vopson has outlined his hypothesis in his new book, 'Reality Reloaded: The Scientific Case for a Simulated Universe'. 

He says it is not even something he necessarily believes in, but a 'extraordinary observation that deserves attention'. 

'What is truly remarkable is that the interpretation given is fully aligned to the events of our times: the emergence of the AI, and also it is exactly what 'The Matrix' was projecting,' he told MailOnline. 

While the professor's thoughts may seem sacrilegious to some, he says it could have 'profound implications for Christian theology'. 

He believes there's an overlap where a belief in the simulated universe theory and the religious need for a almighty creator 'can coexist harmoniously'.  

'This perspective aligns with religious beliefs that hold human life to be meaningful and purposeful, even within the context of a larger design,' he says. 

'Instead of viewing the simulated universe hypothesis as antagonistic to religious beliefs, one can see it as offering a complementary perspective.'  

The professor has already said our lives contains several clues that suggest we're merely characters in an advanced virtual world. 

Melvin Vopson, an associate professor in physics at the University of Portsmouth, has outlined the clues that suggest we live in a simulated reality  

Professor Vopson thinks the prevalence of symmetry in the universe (pictured) suggests we are in a simulated reality because it's a way to save computational power 

For example, the fact there's limits to how fast light and sound can travel suggest they may be governed by the speed of a computer processor. 

The laws of physics that govern the universe are also akin to computer code, he says, while elementary particles that make up matter are like pixels. 

He also thinks the abundance of symmetry in the world – from flowers to butterflies and snowflakes – is a power-saving technique the machines use to render the digitally constructed world. 

The simulation theory is not unique to Professor Vopson; in fact, it's popular among a number of well-known figures including Tesla founder Elon Musk and American astrophysicist Neil Degrasse Tyson. 

At a 2016 conference, Musk said the odds that we're living in a 'base reality' – the real universe as opposed to a simulated one – are 'one in billions'. 

The term 'base reality' is part of an expansion on the theory that there are layers upon layers of fake realities that we need to somehow wake up from, akin to the film 'Inception'.

But as French philosopher René Descartes pointed out in 1637, 'Cogito, ergo sum', translated from the Latin as 'I think, therefore I am'. 

In other words, the ability to doubt the nature of our reality is essentially proof that we exist, in some shape or form.

The legendary SR-71 Blackbird, as soon as it has its successor, may certainly redefine the way aerial reconnaissance and strike capabilities are to be perceived because it is given its unparalleled speed and altitude. Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works team is working on the SR-72 "Darkstar," a hypersonic aircraft that aims to reach Mach 6.0. This would be twice the capability of the predecessor./

The SR-71 was unveiled to the world over half a century ago and could reach an altitude of 85,000 feet and Mach 3.2.

The SR-71 was unveiled to the world over half a century ago and could reach an altitude of 85,000 feet and Mach 3.2.

Its retirement in the late 1990s meant it would never be challenged for this record, but the supposed SR-72 has promised much more.

Popularized by its appearance in the latest Top Gun movie, it promises to transcend feats that would never have been seen or imagined in this aircraft's lifetime.

Firm Lockheed Martin partnered with Aerojet Rocketdyne for the new engine for the SR-72; it would take advantage of technology from the now-canceled HTV-3X.

The turbine-based combined cycle (TBCC) engine that the SR-72 will be using is a dual-mode ramjet engine, which will enable take-off at conventional jet speeds and then zoom up to hypersonic speeds of potentially over Mach 6.0.

It has not been an easy ride to develop the SR-72. The latest reports show that in Q2 2024, the program overspent by an additional $45 million, leaving it with a comprehensive loss since 2022 to $335 million.

Still, hope for the SR-72 remains alive. Lockheed Martin will continue to be extended with the program as shrouded in secrecy, marching toward operational status, perhaps to meet future U.S. Air Force needs.

Hence, the SR-72 would be an ISR asset with strike capability; whereas the SR-71 aircraft could only be used for reconnaissance missions, the SR-72 aircraft would engage the target directly.

Based on this feature added to hypersonic missiles, it would be possible for a weapon system to breach any airspace and strike any point on a continent within sixty minutes.

It would be an entirely new kind of strategic advantage, said Lockheed Martin's program manager, as such a machine "penetrates denied airspace and strikes at nearly any location across a continent in less than an hour."

It's a capability no other weapon in the U.S. Air Force's inventory can especially with rising tensions between Washington and Beijing continuing unabated.

The SR-72 has been classified, but Lockheed Martin upped its advanced development programs unit by 75 percent and hired more than 2,300 new employees since early 2018.

That kind of investment means that the production will be of a new classified aircraft for use in operational service.

The SR-72 is taking shape as an aircraft that will revolutionize the air reconnaissance and strike capabilities, permitting the United States Air Force to achieve unprecedented speed and strategic advantage.

Two Scientists Say That The Human Soul is A Type of Quantum Field

Two scientists propose that the human soul is a type of quantum field that interacts only with certain fields in the physical universe, not directly with matter, and that electromagnetic fields affect the soul and help create memories and self-awareness in a fetus or child during reincarnation.

Fields that interact with the soul field include electromagnetic waves as evidenced by near-death experiences where events that could not have been seen through the eyes of the individual are verified.

Edward W. Kamen of the Georgia Institute of Technology and Roger D. Kamen of Ferris State University propose that, since electric fields and electromagnetic fields both have quanta consisting of photons, electric fields may also interact with the so-called “soul field.”

This interaction could potentially result in the transfer of information, such as working memory content, to the soul via the electric fields generated by neural ensembles in the human brain. Furthermore, the soul field may influence neurons at the molecular level through interactions with electric fields, as well as the recently proposed mechanism of cytoelectric coupling.

The possibility of the existence of realms beyond the physical universe is now accepted by many cosmologists who subscribe to the eternal inflation theory of multiple universes.

However, the existence of the multiverse does not provide an explanation for where souls might reside. The key point is that other domains outside our universe may exist. Although the laws of physics likely vary from universe to universe in the multiverse scenario, it is conceivable that quantum fields and quanta (discrete packets of energy) underlie the existence of every universe in the multiverse, as they do in our own. [Source]

The study says if human souls exist, they come from a different realm and return there after the body dies. In this realm, the usual laws of physics might not apply, but there could be similarities to our physical universe. It introduces the concept of “quasi-fields,” which are similar to quantum fields in our universe but exist in the domain of the soul.

These quasi-fields may give rise to massless particles, similar to how quantum fields produce massless particles like photons in the physical world.

Researchers suggest that if there’s no Higgs-like field in the soul realm, then everything there would be massless. It also notes that while many discussions about the soul view it as a fothe “soul field” is expected to have specific values or strengths related to the energy and particles that make it up. However, these values might be impossible to measure directly with any devices. The soul field’s values would depend on the physical space and time because the soul exists in a body while it’s alive. Additionally, the soul field might also involve different types of space and time when it exists in a separate, non-physical realm. This implies that there is a kind of space in the soul domain, allowing for movement and the passage of time, rather than everything happening instantly of spiritual energy, this idea alone doesn’t fully explain its nature.

Ultimately, it proposes that the human soul can be understood as a type of quantum field (quasi-field) that shares some properties with the quantum fields we know in our universe. This perspective is somewhat different from previous discussions in the literature on the topic.

The “soul field” is expected to have specific values or strengths related to the energy and particles that make it up. However, these values might be impossible to measure directly with any devices.

The soul field’s values would depend on the physical space and time because the soul exists in a body while it’s alive.

This implies that there is a kind of space in the soul domain, allowing for movement and the passage of time, rather than everything happening instantly.

The interaction between the soul and matter, focusing on ideas from quantum field theory (QFT). It mentions a question raised by physicist Sean Carroll about how the soul interacts with matter, specifically electrons. Carroll suggests that if the soul interacts with electrons, there should be a part in the Dirac equation that describes this interaction, but no evidence supports this. [Source

The conclusion drawn is that either QFT is incorrect or the soul does not exist. To resolve this, the text proposes that the soul does not directly interact with matter like electrons or other particles with mass (like quarks). Instead, the soul interacts with specific fields in the universe, particularly electromagnetic (EM) waves.

Evidence for this interaction comes from near-death experiences (NDEs), where individuals report seeing events that they couldn’t have seen physically, but these events are confirmed by others present. The text suggests that the soul can sense and process EM waves, likely through interactions with photons (light particles) that impact the soul field. This is compared to how humans perceive light through electrons in the eye, but how the soul processes this information to achieve vision remains uncertain.

A verified account of a near-death experience (NDE) was reported in the case of a female physician Bettina Peyton whose heart stopped during surgery. Despite her eyes being taped shut, she described seeing a white-haired senior doctor in scrubs entering the operating room and working on her. This event was later confirmed to have actually happened. [Source]

Her description of the experience, where she seems to view the situation from outside her body, suggests that the soul might behave like a “floating cortex” after it separates from the physical body. When someone goes through a near-death experience, they report being able to hear conversations around them, which raises questions about how this is possible if their heart has stopped.

One idea is that, even though the heart isn’t beating, the cells responsible for hearing can still work for a short time. These cells can send electrical signals through the auditory nerve to the brain, which the soul can interpret as sounds.

The study describes how electric fields created by brain activity can contain information, including memories. If the soul can pick up on these electric fields, then memories might continue to exist after death, moving with the soul. This suggests that memories don’t just disappear when someone dies.[Source]

Furthermore, the connection between the soul and these electric fields might work both ways. Not only can electric fields affect the soul, but the soul might also influence brain activity. This could play a role in how memories and self-awareness are transferred to a new body during reincarnation.

Scientists know that the brain’s electric fields can affect nearby neurons, which might mean the soul field could impact how neurons work as well. [Source]

However, if the soul does interact with electric fields in the body, it’s tricky to measure this interaction. This means proving the existence of the soul through its effects on these fields might be impossible.

This Man Went To Find Giant Alien Pyramid Buried Deep in the Alaskan Wilderness & Never Seen Again

Nathan Campbell was last seen on June 13, 2020, near Carey Lake, Alaska. He told his bush pilot that he was searching for the lost pyramid of Alaska. In May 2020, a small floatplane flew 41-year-old Campbell deep into a remote part of Alaska. During the flight, he told the pilot he was searching for Alaska’s lost pyramid. No one has seen Campbell since.

The National Park Service wasn’t told he was missing until mid-September, 2020. They began searching a remote area in Denali National Park and found supplies he had left at Carey Lake, where the plane had dropped him off. They also found a collapsed tent some miles away. Inside the tent was a damaged diary, likely chewed on by animals. (Source)

The diary didn’t offer many clues about what happened to him. It mostly described his daily camp activities. The last entry said Campbell had left the tent to “get water.” After finding the diary, Alaska State Troopers added Campbell to their missing persons list, but the notice didn’t give much more information.

On May 27, 2020, Campbell hired a small plane in Talkeetna, Alaska, to take him to a remote lake in Denali National Park. He brought basic camping gear, a lot of food stored in plastic tubs, and a satellite communicator to stay in touch with his wife and kids. His plan was to spend four months alone in the wilds of Interior Alaska.

Campbell chose a very isolated spot for his summer trip. The plane dropped him off at Carey Lake, a small blue lake surrounded by hundreds of miles of untouched wilderness. The area was tough to navigate, filled with dense bushes and deep beaver ponds. If he wanted to get to the nearest town, Lake Minchumina (which only has 13 residents), he would need to walk for a week through difficult terrain. If he was looking for solitude, he definitely found it.

However, Campbell wasn’t there just for a vacation; he had a specific purpose. During the long flight to Carey Lake, as they flew over the vast green forests below, Campbell opened up to his pilot, Jason Sturgis, about his plans for the summer.

“He was a pretty quiet individual,” said Jason Sturgis, the charter pilot who flew Campbell to Carey Lake, but Campbell revealed his interest in the rumored pyramid as the plane approached its landing after a long flight across the Alaska Range from near Talkeetna.

“His ‘Indiana Jones adventure’ is what he called it,” Sturgis said.

Campbell went to Carey Lake because he was searching for something very mysterious: the Black Pyramid. This huge underground structure is said to be four times bigger than the famous Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt and is believed to be thousands or even millions of years old. Some conspiracy theorists think the pyramid is so important for national security that any evidence of it—and the military base that supposedly protects it—has been erased from satellite images.

For many years, bush pilots, trappers, and local people have traveled around Carey Lake, but a quick look through old newspapers from Fairbanks shows few mentions of a giant alien pyramid or a secret base in central Alaska. However, before Nathan Campbell arrived, nobody had really been searching for it. His reasons for looking in this remote part of Alaska, if you consider the strange logic of conspiracy theories, seem to make sense.

If you have not yet heard of the lost pyramid of Alaska, it is understandable. News of the structure has not crept into the mainstream media, but if you type “Alaska pyramid” into Bing’s search engine you will find the fictional structure has attracted plenty of attention from alternative and fringe media.

“World’s oldest pyramids found in Alaska shocks the scientific community,” New Earth Media headlined in 2017. “An underground pyramid giving out giant amounts of energy is being ‘covered up’ by the U.S. government, a documentary has revealed,” Daily Star reported in 2019.

“Traces of GIANT PYRAMID Beneath Alaska Uncovered by Journalist,” Russia’s, state-owned Sputnik News disclosed before going on to claim that “a nuclear blast that occurred in China nearly 30 years ago apparently led to a surprising discovery hundreds of kilometers away, in Alaska, where US government seismometers detected some peculiar geological anomalies, which in turn led a number of dedicated enthusiasts to pursue claims of a massive pyramid located far below the surface of the frozen peninsula.”

Sputnik cited as its source “the History Channel’s Ancient Aliens TV show journalist Linda Moulton Howe (who) was contacted by an ex-naval worker who told her on condition of anonymity that his father, an engineer, was able to see the pyramid while he was working on a top-secret government project.”

According to, Craig Medred, an independent Alaska journalist, There are no government projects, either secret or otherwise, within 50 miles of Carey Lake. If there were any, people would notice them because these types of projects need access, such as roads, airports, or even a landing spot for a helicopter. At the very least, there would need to be a clearing by a lake to bring in supplies by a floatplane.

All these things would be easy to spot in the wild and remote areas of Alaska. The story from Sputnik mentioned a Naval officer who supposedly said there was a large pyramid and that they “would go down to the base of a huge pyramid using the elevators.”

However, building elevators that go hundreds of feet underground would be a major construction project. This would be something that small planes flying over the area could easily see. Small, single-engine aircraft are as common in Alaska as cars are in the lower 48 states. Planes fly almost everywhere, all the time.

While Alaska has grown, and fewer people now own planes, the state still has six times as many private pilots and 16 times more planes per capita than the rest of the U.S., according to the Alaska Department of Transportation. The wild, undeveloped land of the state makes it easier, not harder, for planes to spot large construction projects from above. But those who believe in the idea of a hidden pyramid (or pyramids) in Alaska don’t see it that way.

As writer Anthony Tyler said in an article for The Last American Vagabond, “good parts of Alaska are ‘totally uninhabitable under their current climate conditions…and the government presence overall in the state is pretty overwhelming, with an Air-Force/Army joint base nearly the size of Anchorage right outside of the city itself.’”

He argued that it would actually make sense for the government to hide secret facilities in such remote areas. Tyler writes, “It would almost seem silly for the government to not utilize these tactical advantages.” He then raises the question, “Why can’t people see this from the sky?” The answer, according to him, is because “the pyramid is supposedly located underground.” And, even more surprisingly, he claims that it’s said to be “four times the size of Giza.”

Tyler even speculated on how the pyramid could have ended up hidden, saying that “the ability for an earthquake to subsequently collapse the pyramid in a sort of catacomb underneath the Earth’s surface would be theoretically possible if one took into account Charles Hapgood’s Earth crust Displacement Theory.” He admits, though, that “even this is a wild and unlikely truth.” Instead, the legend suggests that the pyramid is thousands of years old and “was not built by humans.” (Source)

In June, Campbell, who had just turned 41, decided to go on a solo adventure in the Carey Lake area, looking for pyramids. It’s unclear why he chose to do this alone. Sturgis, the pilot who dropped him off, said he felt uneasy about leaving Campbell without a set pickup date, but Campbell reassured him.

He told the pilot that he had a Garmin InReach device, which could help him communicate and share his location via GPS. Campbell explained that if he needed an early pickup, his wife would contact the pilot. Otherwise, he planned to stay until late August or early September.

Campbell was well-prepared, bringing along some large containers of food and a big backpack. Sturgis recalled that Campbell took fishing gear with him too, which was later found by park officials at Carey Lake. Campbell stayed in touch with his wife through the InReach device until mid-June.

After that, his wife stopped hearing from him. “It was a Friday she called me,” Sturgis said, explaining that she reached out in June, concerned because there had been no contact. Sturgis asked her for Campbell’s last known GPS coordinates, which showed that he was about five miles away from the lake. Unfortunately, Sturgis couldn’t land his floatplane in that area to check on Campbell. He advised Campbell’s wife to call a helicopter company to go and check the location.

Sturgis assumed the helicopter search would happen, but after a while, he forgot about the situation. “I just figured they did that,” he said, until September, when he got a call asking him to go and pick up Campbell. By that time, the man had been reported missing, and both the state authorities and the park service had begun searching for him.

Another pilot, David Lee, said the situation was strange. He had considered starting his own search mission for Campbell before the park service began theirs. “It’s pretty bizarre,” Lee said, adding that someone should have started looking for Campbell sooner, given that he’d been out of contact for nearly three months. However, he admitted, “I don’t know if it would have made any difference.”

Campbell is not the first to disappear into the wilderness on the north side of the park. About 50 miles to the east, a young man named Chris McCandless moved into an abandoned and deserted bus along an abandoned and overgrown road in April 1992.

The 24-year-old son of a comfortably well off East Coast family, McCandless fled into the wild for reasons that will never be known. Some have suggested he was struggling with mental illness. Whatever the case, McCandless was found dead of starvation in the bus in the fall of the year, and four years later writer John Krakauer authored a book portraying McCandless as a young man on a search for the meaning of life who died tragically after accidentally eating poisoned seeds.

The book became a bestseller that turned the dead McCandless into a mythical figure. The idea McCandless accidentally poisoned himself was eventually debunked, but it didn’t matter.

This Professor Claimed That Out of 225 Cases Studying Reincarnation, 75 Had Birthmarks Corresponding with Past Life Memories.

In his book Reincarnation and Biology, Ian Stevenson documented 75 cases of people with birthmarks and defects on the head and neck, which he believed might be linked to past lives. Stevenson’s cases with 19 similar cases found in a systematic review by Laura Borges Kirschnick and her colleagues. Stevenson’s reports were much longer and more detailed than those found in journal publications (averaging 9 pages vs. 2.1 pages). Additionally, the cases in the journals didn’t represent the same variables Stevenson used in his research.

Reincarnation research is unusual because it relies heavily on books rather than just journal articles. Stevenson’s books are considered key resources in this field, and literature reviews should include books alongside journal papers. Finally, a trustworthiness scale is suggested to help researchers evaluate reincarnation case studies.

Ian Stevenson (October 31, 1918 – February 8, 2007) was a Canadian-born American psychiatrist, the founder and director of the Division of Perceptual Studies at the University of Virginia School of Medicine. He was a professor at the University of Virginia School of Medicine for fifty years.

Stevenson began studying children who claim to remember previous lives— an endeavor that will surely be remembered as the primary focus of his life’s work—almost by accident.

Recently in this journal, Laura Borges Kirschnick and colleagues published a review of birthmarks and birth defects of the head and neck region in reincarnation cases, following the 2020 PRISMA guidelines for systematic reviews. (Source)

Birthmarks and birth defects have different causes, and many of these causes are not fully understood. Some people believe that certain birthmarks might come from past lives, even though this idea sounds strange.

In a study of newborns in Thailand, which is often studied for reincarnation, the most common birthmarks were Mongolian spots (66.7%) and sebaceous gland hyperplasia (60.9%). The most common vascular birthmarks were salmon patches (36%), while infantile hemangiomas (1.1%) and port wine stains (0.7%) were much rarer.

Birthmarks thought to be linked to reincarnation are mostly large spots and moles, sometimes lighter or darker than the skin around them, and areas without hair, especially on the head. Birth defects that seem connected to reincarnation are usually very rare types.

Reincarnation is a debated idea, but it seems interesting in cases where birthmarks match the location and look of fatal wounds or scars on people who have died. Some people also remember details about the lives of these deceased individuals, which adds to the belief in reincarnation. Additionally, they may show behaviors, emotions, and personality traits similar to those who have died, making the idea feel even more real.

The main researcher on this topic was Ian Stevenson from the University of Virginia. He spent the latter part of his career studying what he called “cases of the reincarnation type.”

In 1997, he published a large two-volume work called Reincarnation and Biology, focusing on physical differences in these cases. This study included reports of 225 cases from places like Asia, Africa, North America, and Europe. Most of the birthmarks and defects matched fatal injuries, but some were related to other scars, like earring holes or tattoos. A few were linked to marks made after death, which is a common practice in South Asia.

Ian Stevenson outlines his views on evidence for life after death in this video from 2004, emphasizing that his findings go beyond the accounts of children who claim to remember past lives.

Stevenson identifies six significant sources of evidence for life after death:

Apparitions: He refers to these as “hallucinations of the mentally well.” These are experiences where individuals claim to see or sense the presence of someone who has died. Stevenson considers these phenomena important in the discussion of life after death.

Near-Death Experiences (NDEs): He mentions experiences of individuals who come close to death but survive. These experiences have gained significant public interest, as many report profound and transformative insights during such moments.

Statements from the Dying: Stevenson points out that those who are nearing death often make comments or express thoughts that deserve attention. These statements may reflect insights or awareness beyond the ordinary understanding of life.

Possession Experiences: He describes instances where a person’s personality seems to disappear, replaced by the characteristics of another individual. This phenomenon raises questions about the nature of identity and consciousness.

Mediumship: Stevenson discusses people who claim to communicate with the deceased. He refers to these deceased individuals as “discarnate personalities.” He believes that some mediums can relay credible messages from those who have died, suggesting a form of continued existence after death.

Vivid Dreams: Finally, he intends to share accounts of significant dreams experienced by a colleague, which he believes provide additional evidence supporting the idea of life after death.

Ian Stevenson wrote a synopsis, Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect, that contained color photographs of some of the marks and defects along with far fewer pages than the two-volume set (Stevenson, 1997b). Cases with such lesions continued to be found, and several of us, led by Ian, later published a paper of additional birthmark/birth defect cases that included two American cases (Pasricha et al., 2005). (Source)

He was interested in how certain children acted. He wrote a paper about fears, called phobias, that many of these children had, often connected to how they said they died in a past life. In his study of 387 cases, he found that 36% of the children showed these fears. These fears often appeared when the kids were very young, sometimes even before they talked about their past lives.

For example, he mentioned a baby girl in Sri Lanka who was so scared of baths that three adults had to hold her down to give her one. By six months old, she was also afraid of buses. Later, she talked about the life of another girl who had died after stepping back to avoid a bus and falling into floodwater. Ian observed that the fears often lessened as the children stopped discussing their past lives, but this didn’t always happen.

Stevenson wrote about children’s play in a study he did. He found that in 278 cases, nearly a quarter of the children played in ways that connected to lives they described, even though these lives were different from their families and had no role models. For example, one boy played as a biscuit shopkeeper so much that he fell behind in school, while a girl in India enjoyed sweeping and even cleaned up after her younger brothers, surprising her Brahmin parents.

Ian also looked at Burmese children who said they lived as Japanese soldiers during World War II. Many of these kids showed behaviors that were unusual in Burma but typical of Japanese soldiers, like wanting to wear Japanese clothes instead of traditional Burmese attire and preferring raw fish over spicy Burmese food. Some also displayed traits like being hardworking and, like the soldiers, being cruel.

Ian believed this research was very important because it suggested there might be a third factor in how personalities develop. He pointed out that not all unusual behaviors can be explained by genetics or the environment alone; he thought some personality traits of the deceased people might have influenced the children in ways that couldn’t be easily explained.

Question: If reincarnation were widely accepted, how would it change the world?

Ian Stevenson answered: It would lessen guilt on the part of parents. They wouldn’t have as much of a burden that, whatever goes wrong with a child is all their fault, either through genes or mishandling during the child’s infancy. People themselves would have to take more responsibility for their own destinies. . . . I don’t expect any great moral transformation. On my first trip to India I met a respected Indian monk, a swami. I told him I had come out to see what evidence there was in India for reincarnation. He remained silent for a long, long time. Then he said, ”We here in India regard it as a fact that people are reborn, but, you see, it doesn’t make a difference because we have just as many rogues and villains in India as you have in the West.” (Source)
