n one areaat least, theacademicestablish-

ment is certainlyin rapid retreatthese days.Accepted datesfor the dawn ofhumanity, and itsvarious attemptsat civilization,steadily recedeinto an antiquityonce hotly denied by mainstream archaeology.

With almost breathtaking rapidity new discoveries are challenging anddiscrediting conventional assumptions about the length of humanity’s sagaon Earth. Currently, the academic world is being shocked by the carbon 14dating of pottery and human remains found last year amidst highly civilizedsurroundings under 120 feet of water in India’s Gulf of Cambay. The age ofthe artifacts was reported in January to be about 9,500 years, more than4,000 years older than orthodox theory would permit (see David Lewis’article in this issue). In the meantime, on the other side of the worldunderwater ruins near Cuba apparently show the presence of civilization ata comparable time. For more authoritative information on the latter weawait the pleasure of the National Geographic Society and its associates inCuba.

Already, though, we have seen new studies with more and moreevidence completely shattering once widely accepted notions such as the“Clovis Horizon,” which, just a few years ago, postulated the first arrival ofhumans in the western hemisphere at about 12,000 years ago. Today noself-respecting scholar would argue with the notion that humans were inthe Americas long before previously believed. In the meantime, hardly amonth goes by that dates for the appearance of modern humans, and manyof their milestones, are not pushed back by hundreds and even thousands ofyears.

At Atlantis Rising, we can only say, we told you so. We started thispublication convinced that the conventional time line for the origins ofcivilization was hopelessly truncated and could not possibly providesufficient room to account for the breadth and depth of human experienceon Earth. By whatever route we traveled to our present straits, we certainlydid not get here overnight. There had to be a greater prologue. Commonsense demanded it.

It seems to us that, even without an earthshaking discovery (i.e., a “hallof records” from a great but forgotten civilization) if the present trendcontinues, before long the accumulated weight of evidence could force thescientific establishment into a new appreciation for the true meaning oflegends and myths from indigenous peoples, the sacred texts of East andWest, and many other ancient sources, including Plato, which have beendisparaged or disregarded for much too long.

Until that age of latter-day enlightenment has fully dawned, though, youhave this magazine to keep you abreast of developments, even those thatthe orthodox scientific press is struggling to ignore.

The Nazis and AtlantisI enjoyed Frank Joseph’s

defense of the Atlantis hy-pothesis. However, I feel thatdespite “twenty years of re-search,” Mr. Joseph may wishto reconsider his statementthat Heinrich Himmler norany prominent Nazis be-lieved the master race origi-nated in Atlantis.

He will find the Thule So-ciety most interesting. TheThule Society, a turn-of-the-20th century German literarysociety comprised of wealthyand prominent Germans,funded the Nazi party andspawned the core Nazi beliefin the Aryan homeland ofThule. Also called Hyper-borea or the “White or PureIsland,” German legend saysthat the original race of Ger-mans came from an island inthe far north that was also home to therace of Atlanteans. Its capital wascalled Ultima Thule or Tula (Sanskritfor ‘balance’). The Mayans called theirhomeland Aztlan, Atlan or Tula. Hence,the German Thule and Atlantis are oneand the same.

He will also wish to investigate aman named Otto Rahn (1904-1939).Though unknown to most, this giftedyoung German author and mythologistmay have been one of the most illu-mined Holy Grail questers in all of his-tory. Prior to his mysterious death, atage 35, he wrote two books about theCathars and the Holy Grail: Kreuzzuggegen den Gral ("Crusade Against theGrail”) and Luzifers Hofgesinf("Lucifer’s Court”). These best-sellingbooks were favorites of Adolf Hitler,and Heinrich Himmler, the numbertwo Nazi, who made Rahn’s booksmandatory reading by the SS (TheBlack Order). Though Rahn was halfJewish, Himmler personally saw to his

T

admittance to the SS.During this time Rahn was said to

be a frequent guest at the salon of KarlWiligut (1866-1946), a German mysticand seer recently released from an in-sane asylum who claimed to have “an-cestral memory,” or memory in hisblood. His chronology began in228,000 B.C., when there were threesuns in the sky and giants and dwarfsroamed the Earth!

Wiligut insisted that Christianity,the religion of Krist, was founded inGermany in 12,500 B.C. as the uni-versal religion. In 9500 B.C. the Norsegod Baldur-Chrestos, a prophet ofKrist, escaped crucifixion in Germanyand fled to the Middle East where helater became Iesus Christos, or JesusChrist. As Wiligut was keen to pointout, it is an undeniable historical factthat Christianity adopted many pagancult centers, ceremonies, holidays andmyths. By digging underneath Christiansites (and into the meanings of words)

one finds the true Atlanteanreligion, the religion of the

technology-wielding angels.Another attentive participant

of Wiligut’s rantings wasHeinrich Himmler. Wiligut

became Himmler’s Rasputinand advisor on mythological

subjects. At the behest ofHimmler Rahn penned Lu-

cifer’s Court in Europe as aNazi propaganda track. As

Rahn tells it, in 1519 the Az-tecs of Mexico held blood

memory of Tula/Atlantis. AsRahn wrote:

In the wake of Co-lumbus… the sails of Ferdi-

nand Cortez crossed theseas. It was he who con-

quered the kingdom of theAztecs and Mexico for thebenefit of Spain. In an ac-

count that he sent to the im-perial court, one reads thatthe king of the Aztecs hadbowed to the Emperor be-

cause he held (the Emperor)to be the same Lord of lumi-nous beings and superior es-

sence “from which had is-sued his own ancestors.”

Montezuma had also beenabout to permit Cortez to ap-

propriate all the idols… thatis, until he, the king—imprisoned bythe gold-hungry conquerors and mor-tally wounded by them—understoodwho they really were. He refused toallow them to treat his wounds and, en-ergetically resisting the idea of con-verting to Christianity, wished fornothing more than death. And he diddie, the victim of a frightful mistake.Cortez was the envoy of the Pope andthe Catholic emperor and not at all ofthe “White God” for whom (the king)and his people had been waiting solong. This White God was to havecome from the ancient land of Tulla orTullan (which, according to their be-liefs, had once been “a country of thesun” but “where now ice reigned” andwhere “the sun had disappeared)—thatis to say: from Thule. Rather than theservants of Lucifer, those whom theyhad greeted … were the representa-tives of that ‘ilk’ which, shamelessly,dishonors the face of our mother the

Earth with its filth and its horrors.” Rahn made it perfectly clear that he

believed the shameless “ilk” was theCatholic Church. Quetzalcoatl (‘theplumed serpent’) was the name of theWhite God whom the Aztecs wereawaiting. He was called the King ofTula/Atlantis and the King of Peace.While these words did not come out ofthe mouth of Himmler or his psycho-pathic leader, they do strongly inferNazi interest in Atlantis. The word At-lantis does not have tocome out of Hitler orHimmler’s mouth in orderto demonstrate the influ-ence of this subject onthese errant monsters andthe German people whofollowed them to destruc-tion. Still, the profound in-fluence is there.

As Mr. Joseph con-cludes, Atlantis is risingever stronger in the mindsof people everywhere. Itis vital, in my opinion, tocorrectly understand the past so thatwe do not repeat the mistakes of thosewho came before us. There is, indeed,more beyond Atlantis.

Nostradamus PerspectivesI was very disappointed to read the

article on Nostradamus and find nomention of my books, “ConversationsWith Nostradamus, Volumes I, II andIII. All you had to do was look on ourwebsite: www.ozarkmt.com to findthe accurate interpretations of thequatrains that explained the recentevents of Sept. 11. We received somany emails after the event that weposted the correct interpretations onthe site. All the experts you quotedcame to the conclusion AFTER theevent. In my books the events werepredicted BEFORE the events oc-curred, and in great detail. My bookshave been in print since 1989 and havenow gone through their sixth printing.The information is so astoundingly ac-curate that we have inserted updatesin the books each time the events havecome true. The dates for the Gulf War,the fall of the Berlin Wall, the breakupof the Communist countries were allpredicted and in print before they oc-curred. In 1996 I added a fifty-page ad-dendum to Volume I detailing eventsthat had come true in two years alone.

SEE OUR GREAT 8-PAGE CATALOG SECTION

Mine was the only book that had thecorrect interpretation for the famous“1999" quatrain, and the MABUS ana-gram. Last year I received much pub-licity because of the “hung jury elec-tion” prediction that came true instartling detail. In my books theSept.11 attack on New York and thePentagon were named BEFORE theyoccurred. On the website you can seethe quotes from the books. Nostrad-amus said explicitly that it would beNew York, and he named the Pen-tagon. This was not done in puzzleform, but very clearly. There is muchmore horror to come, and I have beenreporting this on radio shows and in

newspaper and magazinearticles. These were

things I never lectured onbecause I didn’t want tofrighten people, but the

information has beenavailable in my books

since 1989. The demandfor the books has been so

great since the bombingthat we have now goneinto our sixth printing,

and I have added the ref-erence quatrains to the

addendum. There ismuch, much more in the books that iscoming to pass daily.

Again, I am very disappointed thatyou did not check this information out.The other experts have only touchedthe surface, and only after the fact.

he awkward tale of ancient originsfor Afghanistan’s Taliban could re-

quire more explanation than thewhereabouts of Mullah Omar. Ac-cording to legend they are descendedfrom one of the lost tribes of Israel,missing since the Babylonian captivityin the sixth century B.C.

To some, the long-standing legendthat Afghanistan’s Pashtun tribe—constituting the bulk of the Taliban—isdescended from the biblical Israeliteswould appear particularly bizarre inlight of the Muslim group’s intense ha-tred of the state of Israel. But ac-cording to well established Pashtun tra-dition, though unmentioned in Jewishscriptures, the tribe was founded inthe 10th century B.C. by Afghana, saidto be a grandson of Israel’s King Saul

tradition can be detected tothis day. (Graham Hancock isamong those who argue that

the Ark of the Covenant can befound in present day Ethiopia.)

Some of the lost tribes, it hasbeen argued, found their way

to Europe where their various lineagesbecame the basis for the royal housesof Europe and which provided supportfor the descendants of the royal lines ofJudah and Benjamin through Jesus andhis family. One school of thought,which came to be known as British Is-raelism, argued that the English camefrom another of the tribes. Others weresaid to have founded America. Onetribe went to India and another, ofcourse, to Afghanistan.

Such theories are, to say the least,controversial, but the notion that an-cient fratricidal animosities could be atthe root of today’s international tur-moil is nothing new. Today both Arabsand Jews and all Semitic peoples stillclaim descent from one family, that ofthe biblical patriarch Abraham.

and commander of King Solomon’sarmy. To make more room in Babylon,as the story goes, the emperor Nebu-chadnezzar ultimately sent Afghana’sdescendants to the east and they endedup in Afghanistan.

The saga of the lost tribes of Israelconstitutes one of the great mysteriesof history with different accounts to befound in many parts of the world.Modern Jews are said to be descendedfrom two of the original 12 tribes—Judah and Benjamin (the word ‘Jew’ isderived from Judah). The other 10tribes had broken away and formed aseparate kingdom which was eventu-ally destroyed by the Babylonians. Ac-cording to some sources, one tribemade its way to Ethiopia, where, in re-mote areas, traces of ancient Israelite

he ruins of a large civil-ized city discovered last

May beneath 120 feet of waterin India’s Gulf of Cambay havebeen dated by carbon 14 at asmuch as 9,500 years old. TheLondon Times and the BBC re-ported in January that potteryand human remains from thesite have shown an age at least5,000 years older than the con-ventionally asserted age of civ-ilization. Resembling the enig-matic ruins at Mohenjo Daroand other Harappan sites, thelocation possesses large built-up structures, the like ofwhich had never before beenseen in such ancient surround-ings. Previously, so-called pale-olithic sites have been datedto around 20,000 years, butthis is the first time that man-

T made structures have been dis-covered from such an early pe-

riod.“This was a very sophisti-

cated city built upon a gridsystem,” researcher Graham

Hancock told the LondonTimes. “The buildings were

square or rectangular and of anenormous scale, hundreds of

feet in length. We can evenmake out the drains that run

alongside the streets. Theheight of some of the buildings

is more difficult to determinebut it was surrounded by wallsabout 12 feet (3 meters) high.”

implications for the prevailingacademic paradigm, see the ar-ticle by David Lewis elsewherein this issue.

IS DNA COMPUTING IN THE WORKS?

he Star Trektransporter

scenario is onestep closer. Ac-cording to NewScientist.com re-searchers at BoseInstitute in Cal-cutta haveshown that tele-portation is possible with objects aslarge as atoms and molecules.

The technique works through some-thing called quantum entanglement(see Atlantis Rising #20) which allowsto particles to behave as one, no matterhow far apart they are. Measuring onewill reveal the state of the other. Untilnow, physicists have only been able toentangle photons, electrons and atoms,using different methods in each case.For instance, atoms are entangled byforcing them to interact inside an op-tical trap, while photons are made tointeract with a crystal.

“These schemes are very specific,”says Sougato Bose of the University ofOxford. But Bose and Dipankar Homehave now demonstrated a single mech-anism that could be used to entangleany particles, even atoms or large mole-cules.

Theoretically the technique couldbe used with even larger objects, butScotty will not be able to beam us upanytime soon.

EARLY RAYS

he March, 2002 cover story of Pop-ular Science is devoted to “Time

Travel,” with the provocative subhead:“Science Says It Isn’t Fiction. ButWhen?”

Indeed the magazine has little newto say on the matter, focusing primarilyon notions derived primarily from Ein-steinian physics and quite familiar tomost readers versed in the subject.

EARLY RAYS

cosmic close call for earth has sci-entists around the world joining

forces to persuade Australia to helpsave the planet.

According to Robert Roy Brittwriting for Space.com, an asteroid thesize of three football fields passed byEarth on January 7 at just twice the dis-tance to the moon. The rock, named2001 YB5, was first seen in De-cember—nowhere near enough time tomount a space mission to deflect it. Ifit had been on a collision course withEarth, it would have wiped out an areaabout the size of Ohio and caused mil-lions of casualties and there wouldhave been nothing we could do to pre-vent it. A similar asteroid flyby oc-curred last October. Big enough to de-stroy a city, it was discovered just twodays before passing.

While a coordinated search effort isunderway in the northern hemisphere,the real worry is the southern hemi-sphere where about 30% of the sky isnot being watched. Now a letter from91 of the world’s leading astronomersand space activists—including a who’swho of asteroid experts—asks the Aus-

he age of free energy has arrivedand its home is in the Irish coun-

tryside. That, at least, is the import ofthe news from Dublin in January.

According to Reuters, an anonymousinventor has created from off-the-shelfcomponents what he calls the Jaskerpower system which can replenish itsown power source.

T

A

“The Jasker produces emission-freeenergy at no cost, apart from the instal-lation. It is quite possibly the most sig-nificant invention since the wheel,”says Tom Hedrick, chief executive of acompany established to promote thetechnology and the only person in-volved with the machine willing to givehis name.

The image of near Earth asteroid (NEA) 2001 YB5 was taken from the Klet Observatory on 2002January 5. Image of asteroid is arrowed.

Reuters reporter Kevin Smith sayshe witnessed a demonstration of themachine, roughly the size of a dish-washer, which, after being started byfour 12-volt car batteries, powered a100-watt light bulb for around 10 min-utes. At that point, a meter attached tothe batteries showed they had been re-charged during the demonstration. Inthe presence of the reporter, the ma-chine continued to run and to light thebulb without any further externalpower for two hours.

As Atlantis Rising readers know, re-ports of such devices based on “zeropoint energy” and related concepts arenot uncommon, but the Jasker report isunusual because Reuters decided topay so much attention to it. While thestory included the obligatory skepticalcommentary from the likes of RobertPark and others, the overall impressionwas that the Jasker claims were cred-ible. In the past, many such develop-ments have gone completely unnoticedby the mainstream press. That the es-tablishment is suddenly willing to pub-lish such a report represents a majorchange, and could foreshadow thebreaking of a longstanding informationlog jam.

tralian government to rejoin the as-teroid search effort seven years afterthe country dropped out, and suggeststhey build a multimillion dollar tele-scope. It makes no bones about thestakes involved.

“A major global Spaceguard effortcould provide decades of warning prior

to an impact,” the letter states. “Thiswould be sufficient time to refine thespace technology needed to nudge athreatening asteroid into a harmlessorbit, or to evacuate the predicted im-pact area. Without Spaceguard therewould be too little warning to preventa disaster.”

part from the unwelcome turbulence, it seemed like afairly uneventful flight from Boston to Los Angeles. High

in the stratosphere, passengers aboard the big jet had settledinto the routine of the five-hour transcontinentalhop—an unimaginable miracle of science andtechnology, had this been 1901 when the Wrightbrothers were still at the hang-glider stage, asOtto Lilienthal had been in 1896 in Germany athis death. But this was a century later, the 1st ofAugust 2001.

In less than six weeks, an obscene terroristplot that had been percolating underground foryears, would kill thousands in New York City,Washington, and Pennsylvania. Lives hung in thebalance. Terrorists plotted to take advantage ofthe miracle of flight, the weakness of steel heatedby burning jet fuel, and the force of gravity itself.Aboard that flight on August 1 was much morethan a subtle clue about what would happen September 11.And, that clue was observed. This flight from Boston was ap-parently some kind of “dry run” for the day of infamy.

Aboard was an exceptionally sharp man who had at-tended three years of MIT before leaving to pursue a suc-cessful acting career. The Emmy Award winner has appearedto date in more than 20 Hollywood movies (Contact, TheGhosts of Mississippi, The Boost, etc.). He was the observer.James Woods is a member the MIT Class of 1969—“Fine ‘69’ ”the Moon landing class, and about the 100th class to grad-uate the illustrious “Institute.”

For about two decades I have been the secretary of thatclass; it has been my business to follow the accomplish-ments, lives, and deaths of classmates and report them inMIT’s alumni/ae magazine, Technology Review, which billsitself “MIT’s Magazine of Innovation.” So on Valentine’s Day2002 when I saw the dashing actor-classmate about to be in-terviewed on the Fox News channel’s The O’Reilly Factor, Ipressed the record button on our VCR.

It was the first time in public that James Woods had re-lated his remarkable, chilling experience of last August. Hetold host Bill O’Reilly that he had observed what he consid-ered to be suspicious behavior by four men of evidentMiddle-Eastern origin, who surrounded him in the First Classsection. This was the key part of his revelation: “Withoutgoing into the details of what made me suspicious of thesefour men, although it would have been blatantly obvious tothe most casual observer, I took it upon myself to go to theflight attendant and ask to speak to the pilot of the plane.The first officer came out. I reported to him that I felt thatthe four men—and I said ‘Can you look over my shoulder tosee whom I’m talking about?’ He said, ‘Uh...yeah...’ I said, ‘Ithink they are going to hijack this plane, I mean everythingthey are doing...’ and I explained to him these details whichI’ve been asked to keep private—until whatever trials may

take place. Their behavior was such that I felt that they weregoing to hijack the plane. I also said, ‘I am very much awareof how serious it is to say on an American aircraft, in flight,the word ‘hijack.’ So I am saying this because I really havereason to believe that it is true.’” Woods recalled that on theevening of August 1, he commented to his girlfriend and bestfriend, “Aside from the terrorists and the turbulence, theflight was fine.” “In retrospect,” he said, “not such a funnyjoke.”

On September 11, after witnessing the horrific events ofthat day on television, Woods contacted the FBI. Two agentscame to his house at 6:45 a.m. the very next day. He wouldlearn from them subsequently that the pilot and the flight at-tendant whom he had approached on August 1 each hadfiled a report about the incident with the FAA (Federal Avia-tion Administration). Woods said that he has since learnedthat all four of the men whom he saw acting so suspiciouslyon his Boston-to-Los Angeles flight were in fact terrorists!Two of them were aboard United flight 175 and Americanflight 77, which plowed catastrophically into the World

Trade Center and into the Pentagon. The othertwo men were also confirmed by the FBI to havebeen accomplices, he said. Woods observed thatnone of them had brought carry-on luggage onthis long flight, and all seemed profoundly de-tached and furtive in their demeanor. “I thoughtthat they were either four (undercover) law en-forcement officers, or four terrorists,” saidWoods.

He emphasized that he had not personally con-tacted the FBI before September 11—rumors tothe contrary notwithstanding. Still, those FAA re-ports that were made by the flight crew thanks tohis prompting just might have led to investiga-tions that could have upset the September 11

plot. Obviously if an airline passenger made such a reporttoday, it would be investigated with great urgency—and, onehopes, diligence. One can only speculate what might havebeen had Woods’ concerns made it to intelligence authori-ties prior to September 11 and had those in charge acted onthe information.

But what does this remarkable “what if” episode have todo with the topics with which my magazine Infinite Energyis usually concerned? Answer: Plenty! It dramatizes the im-portance of being observant and the necessity of being re-sponsible and accountable in matters that are of potentiallyoverarching importance. “Be observant!” is not just a homeyadmonition from your 7th grade science teacher. Mine, a Mr.John Zoukowski, had told us that many times in 1959-60. Ibelieve it sank in.

The comparison is not overdrawn: Think of those whohave played a disgusting, dangerous game for the past 13years with the painstakingly generated data from cold fusionexperiments bearing on excess heat and nuclear products.They have wantonly ignored that data and have mocked itmercilessly. These bureaucrats and ossified academics areneither observant nor accountable. And, they are highly irre-sponsible in their actions and inactions. In many cases theirbehavior borders on criminally irresponsible. Lives too nu-merous to reckon have already been lost in the outrageousdelay in applying adequate human and financial resources tothe science and technology of low-energy nuclear reactions.

Like the passengers aboard flying fuel tanks and in build-ings threatened by suicidal terrorists, our lives hang in thebalance every day. We inhabit a berserk planet in which oilis the currency of criminal dictators and manipulators. Fierydeaths occur every day in the transportation sector.

The Forbidden Archaeologist Invades Prague

n the fall of 2001, Volvox Globator, a major Czech publisher, brought outan edition of my book The Hidden History of the Human Race . So on No-vember 6, 2001, I left Los Angeles on a KLM flight to Prague by way of Am-

sterdam, for a publicity and lecture tour of the Czech Republic. The nextmorning, as we were coming down through cloud cover into Amsterdam’sSchiphol Airport, there was a loud crash and a blinding flash of light fromthe windows. It felt as if the plane had been hit by a giant hammer. Giventhe events of September 11, my first thought was that we had been hit by aterrorist’s ground-to-air missile. But it turned out we had only(!) been hit bylightning. We landed safely. When my connecting flight to Prague took off,things were still stormy around Amsterdam, and the plane got hit twice bylightning shortly after take off. With the instruments reading “engine on fire”the pilot turned the plane around and landed at Schiphol. Was someonetrying to send me a message? A couple of hours later, we were in the airagain. Despite my late arrival, I was met by two people from the PragueHare Krishna temple, who had helped organize my tour. We then drove tothe temple in the outskirts of the city, where I would be staying, and there Ihad some short meetings with some of the other organizers and translators.We went over the next day’s schedule. After a late night snack, I went tosleep.

The next morning, the tour kicked off with a press conference in a clubon the banks of the Vltava River in the center of historic Prague. The confer-ence was well attended, with representatives of Czech national TV, theprint media and radio all there. I opened with a statement that I had alwayswanted to come to Prague. In the spring and summer of 1968, reformers in

Prague had revolted against the hardline Com-munist regime. Desiring to take part in the historicevents, I had headed to Europe around the endof that summer, but before I arrived the Russianshad invaded Czechoslovakia and put down thereformers. So now I was here in Prague, for the

first time, 33 years later. And I was happy to be there. I havealways regarded Prague, the city of Kafka, as quite a revolu-

tionary intellectual place, a place where new ideas circulate un-derground before breaking into public view. It was a perfect place for

me, the forbidden archeologist, to be launching a book that documents ar-cheological evidence for extreme human antiquity, challenging the nowdominant Darwinian evolutionarypicture of human origins.

Over the next few days I ap-peared three times on Czech na-tional television. On November 12:I signed books at Fisher’s, one ofthe prominent Prague bookshops.Then I gave a lecture at theCharles University, one of theoldest universities in Europe. I hadbeen invited by the faculty of phi-losophy. The lecture hall was fullof students and professors, andthere were lots of good questions.On November 13: I did a live in-ternet chat on a major internetprovider for the Czech Republic(chat.volny.cz). The whole tourwas action-packed, with addi-tional lectures at educational andcultural institutions, media inter-views, and book store signings.

Of course, the reactions to my work in themedia were not always favorable. Just after I leftthe Czech Republic to return to L.A., one of themajor Prague papers (Lidove Noviny) printed in itsscience section a sarcastic review of my book by aleading Czech anthropologist, Vaclav Vancata.

The review was titled “The Hidden History of the Human Race: SheerQuackery.” Vancata totally misrepresented the substance of the book andasked the public not to read it. I sent a reply to the editors, and asked themto print it. Martin Uhlir, the science editor, wrote back to me on December 4,2001: “I am sorry that you feel your book was misinterpreted in our news-paper. On the other hand, we have to admit that we do not want to giveyou the opportunity to respond . . . Frankly . . . we are pretty conservativescience supplement which defends the positions of the official science.”That was pretty much the kind of reply I expected.

A few days later, I was pleasantly surprised when I learned that the editorof the cultural affairs section of the paper had somehow seen my reply toDr. Vancata and had decided to print it in her section, over the objectionsof the science editor. Here is the text of my reply:

“Dr. Vaclav Vancata reminds me of the father who tries to frighten achild by saying,. ‘There is a monster in the closet, so you had better notopen the door, or the monster will get you.’ As a representative of orthodoxscience, Dr. Vancata wants to frighten the Czech reading public into notopening the covers of my book The Hidden History of the Human Race . Hewarns that if they dare to do so against his fatherly advice they will findthemselves attacked by the monster of ‘sheer quackery.’ Of course, an in-telligent child might go ahead and take a peek inside the closet to see ifthere really is a monster. And I hope Czech readers will not be frightened bythe monster stories of Dr. Vancata, and will be brave enough to open thecovers of my book and see for themselves what is there.

“They should also know that Dr. Vancata does not represent the opinionof all scholars and scientists. The Hidden History of the Human Race (in its

original English version, titled Forbidden Archaeology), was reviewed in themajor scientific journals of archaeology and the history of science. In alengthy review article in Social Studies of Science, historians of science JoWodak and David Oldroyd said the book made a genuine contribution tothe literature on paleoanthropology because ‘the historical material . . . hasnot been scrutinized in such detail before,’ and the book calls attention to‘the lack of certainty in scientific truth claims.’ In L’Anthropologie, archaeol-ogist Marylène Pathou-Mathis wrote: ‘M. Cremo and R. Thompson have will-fully written a provocative work that raises the problem of the influence ofthe dominant ideas of a time period on scientific research. These ideas cancompel the researchers to orient their analyses according to the concep-tions that are permitted by the scientific community.’ She concluded, ‘Thedocumentary richness of this work . . . is not to be ignored.’ And in BritishJournal for the History of Science, archaeologist Tim Murray said of the book:‘Certainly it provides the historian of archaeology with a useful compen-dium of case studies in the history and sociology of scientific knowledge,which can be used to foster debate within archaeology about how to de-scribe the epistemology of one’s discipline.’ Furthermore, each year, I amregularly invited to speak at scientific societies, universities, and professionalconferences of archaeologists and historians of science around the world,and papers based on the work in my book have been selected for publica-tion in the professional literature. Dr. Vancata’s crude dismissal of the book,and the work it represents, as sheer quackery, is thus not shared by eve-ryone in the world of science.

“Dr. Vancata complains that many of the cases that I mention in thebook (which contradict current ideas of human origins) come from the ear-lier history of archaeology. Of course, if you look in any orthodox textbook ofarchaeology, you will also find many cases that come from the earlier his-tory of archaeology. For example, the discoveries of Neanderthal man(1856), Java Man (1893) , Beijing man (1929), and a host of others comefrom the nineteenth century and early twentieth century. These he does notcomplain about. It is only when a discovery contradicts his ideas that he be-comes suddenly allergic to ‘old’ evidence. I wonder where Vancata getsthis strange idea that all science done before midnight of January 1 of theyear 2000 must be dismissed? It is a foolish idea. Galileo worked in the 17thcentury, Newton in the 18th, and Einstein came up with the theory of rela-

tivity in the very early partof the 20th century, andtheir work is acceptedeven today.

“In any case, many ofthe discoveries I mention inthe book are from themore recent history of ar-chaeology. Also, I amhappy to hear that Dr.Vancata agrees with methat the overly humanizedcharacterizations of Aus-tralopithecus and Homohabilis still found in mosttextbooks and museumdisplays are wrong.

“I don’t mind that Dr.Vancata disagrees withany of the cases of evi-dence for extreme humanantiquity that I have docu-mented in Hidden Historyof the Human Race, but Ido object to his character-

ization of the book as quackery. In his scornful review Dr. Vancata has donemore to discredit himself than my work. I am prepared to come to Pragueat any convenient time to publicly debate Dr. Vancata on the actual sub-stance of the book.”

Scandal, Biohazards and the ShroudScandal, Biohazards and the ShroudANCIENT MYSTERIES

As Controversy Continues over the Reliability ofDating Studies, a Surprising New Threat Surfaces

The Face on the Shroud of Turin

he Shroud of Turin is a hand-loomed piece of linen in her-ringbone weave which is14'3" by 3'7". It bears thenude front and back negative

images of a tall, strongly built, cruci-fied and multiple-wounded man withlong hair, a regal countenance, andhands crossed over his genitals. TheShroud of Turin, named for the Italiancity where it’s housed, is the propertyof the Pope since 1983. It was a giftfrom the House of Savoy and was firstrecorded in historical accounts as ap-pearing in Lirey, France in 1357 underthe control of the renowned Frenchknight, Geoffrey de Charny. Beyondthat, controversy reigns.

To some, it is a clever medievalhoax. To others, a scientific enigma.Still others argue it’s Knights TemplarGrand Master Jacques de Molay or anunknown Crusader crucified by theSaracens. And many believe it to be themost sacred of relics, the actual burialshroud of the historical individualJesus ben Joseph, more commonlyknown as Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

There isn’t room to go into the var-ious issues concerning the Shroud. Thebest book the author knows settingforth the arguments pro and con forthe numerous positions taken is IanWilson’s superb The Blood and theShroud (Touchstone, 1998, paperbackedition). Not only are the often con-flicting explanations of how theShroud’s images were formed pre-sented, but a wealth of useful photo-graphs and drawings as well.

The purpose of this article is to re-visit the subject after the October 13,1988 radiocarbon dating bombshellwas dropped, seemingly the deathknell for any possibility that theShroud was actually the true burialshroud of Jesus. The reason? Threeuniversities dated the Shroud to 1260-1390, at a confidence level of 95%,with the inventor of the acceleratormass spectrometry process used,American nuclear physicist ProfessorHarry Gove, rating the odds against theShroud’s dating to the 1st century A.D.as being a thousand trillion to one.

It turns out, though, that propercontrols weren’t followed, testing pro-tocols were ignored, a lab with moretesting experience than all three of thewinning labs put together was ex-cluded, bureaucratic oars muddied theanalytical waters, and a new kind ofcontamination wasn’t accounted for.With the above in mind, let’s look atwhat was supposed to happen, whathappened, and what effects there mayhave been on the radiocarbon dating asa result.

The 1988 Radiocarbon Tests: WhatWent Wrong?

As described by Ian Wilson in hisabove book (p. 181 and following), the1986 Protocol designed by ProfessorHarry Gove and coordinated by theBritish Museum called for six, laterseven, laboratories, using two differentradiocarbon dating techniques (acceler-ator mass spectrometry and propor-tional counting), to conduct blind testsusing unmarked pieces of the Shroud,together with two similar unmarkedcontrol samples per laboratory. Actualsample excision was to be done bySwiss textile specialist Mme. MechthildFlury-Lemberg of Bern’s Abegg Founda-tion. She was specifically instructed toavoid the image, stains, scorch marksor other areas with useful information.Papal cooperation was assured by

asking Professor Carlos Chagas, Presi-dent of the Pontifical Academy of Sci-ences, to chair the group running theradiocarbon tests.

Unfortunately, even this concilia-tory effort caused a bureaucratic clashbetween the Vatican and the religiousauthorities in Turin under CardinalAnastasio Ballestrero, personified byhis chief scientific adviser, ProfessorLuigi Gonella, the man who’d coordi-nated most of the earlier 1978 tests onthe Shroud. What Professor Gove failedto reckon with is that even though thePope owns the Shroud as a matter oflegal record, the religious authorities inTurin have always considered it theirown and acted accordingly since 1578,when the Shroud first came perma-nently to Turin, Italy.

After many heated exchanges andsoothing of ruffled feathers, it was fur-ther determined that the laboratorieswould not charge for their work, thatresults would be submitted to the Pon-tifical Academy, the Turin Institute ofMetrology and the British Museum foranalysis, and that there would be nopublic disclosure until that work wascomplete. All meeting participantsagreed this, it was signed off by Car-dinal Ballestrero and submitted for-mally to the Pope, who ratified it fivedays after submittal in an authoritativestatement in La Stampa, a major Turinnewspaper.

Enter greed, ego and ambition. May,1987 was the agreed-upon date fortaking the samples, but the bureau-cratic strife skyrocketed as the dateneared. April 1987 brought an indi-cator of woes to come when ProfessorGonella remarked during a La Stampainterview that only two or three labswould be doing the testing. That wasthe warm-up. On October 10, 1987came a stunning letter from CardinalBallestrero to the laboratories, in-forming them that seven had now be-come three. The chosen ones were inOxford, England, Tucson, Arizona andZurich, Switzerland. Now out of thetesting were Rochester, New York,Brookhaven, New York, Harwell, Eng-land and Gif-sur-Yvette, France.

clysm? When did civilization on earthactually begin? What do we reallyknow about the ancient past andhuman origins? And how does the es-tablishment of science, so fixed in itsdoctrines, grapple with the potentialdemise of its most cherished presump-tions?

If the “lost city” of the Caribbeanwasn’t enough, about the same timelast Spring, an equally startling dis-covery occurred 25 miles off the coastof Gujurat, India. The discovery tookplace in part of the Arabian Sea knownas the Gulf of Cambay. India’s NationalInstitute of Ocean Technology (NIOT)turned up some amazing sonar imagesfrom the gulf’s depths while scanningfor pollution levels. Using equipmentthat penetrates the sea floor, marineexperts discovered a pattern of distinctman-made formations across a five-milestretch of sea bed. According to re-ports published worldwide, NIOT’ssonar imaging technology detectedwhat appeared to be the stone pillarsand collapsed walls of at least twocities. The site was described as part ofan ancient river valley civilization notunlike the Saraswati of the Rig Veda,thought to be mythical but—accordingto recent independent findings by In-dian scientists—now proven to haveflowed to Gujurat. Divers at the Gulf ofCambay site later retrieved from depthsof 120 feet, 2,000 man-made artifacts,including pottery, jewelry, sculpture,human bones, and evidence of writing,according to the Times of London.

“Underwater structures that havebeen found along the Gulf of Cambay,Gujarat, indicate an ancient townshipthat could date back anywhere beforeor during the Harappan civilization,”Science and Technology Minister MurliManohar Joshi told the world at a pressconference in May of 2001.

Joshi’s initial guess was that the 5-mile-long site was 4,000 to 6,000 yearsold and submerged by an extremelypowerful earthquake. But in January of2002, carbon dating revealed that an ar-tifact from the site was astonishinglyancient, between 8,500 and 9,500years old—the oldest known civilizationin the world by thousands of years—atime when, according to orthodox ar-chaeological standards, India shouldhave been peopled with primitivehunter gatherers and a few settle-ments, not inhabitants of a lost civiliza-tion.

Author and underwater researcherGraham Hancock described buildingsat the site as being hundreds of feet inlength, with drains running along thestreets.

“If the case is made [for the age ofthe underwater cities], then it meansthat the foundations are out of thebottom of archaeology,” Hancock told

The Guardian in February.The scope and sophistication of the

site dismantles the specific belief thatcivilization began 5,000 years ago inSumeria, according to Hancock, evenas the alternative scholarship move-ment, of which he is a central figure,in general challenges orthodox viewsabout human origins. In the orthodox(Darwinist) view, life andthen human beingsemerged extremely slowlyfrom highly improbable ac-cidental causes over a pe-riod of time necessitatedby laws of probability. Thetheoretical four-billion-yearage of the planet was de-termined in this way, notby scientific or geologicevidence, according to sci-ence writer Richard Milton(author of Shattering theMyths of Darwinism), but by esti-mating how long it should have takenfor accidental life to have occurred,given the extreme improbability oflife having occurred at all throughrandom, material causes.

Discoveriesthat reveal civilizations having existedseveral thousand years earlier than pre-viously thought are greeted with disbe-lief, consternation, silence.

held, in fact, that Indian culture pre-dates all understanding, being virtuallytimeless, stretching into the mists ofantiquity whence sprang the gods andmyth—the non space/non time realityof modern theoretical physics.

As we shall see, certain mythicaltraditions maintain that the land massof ancient India greatly exceeded itspresent size, even that it stretchedfrom Australia to Madagascar, perhapsas an archipelago. As with the archaeo-logical discovery of Troy, once thoughtto be a myth, it must be recognizedthat at least some of India’s supposedlymythical traditions are based in histor-ical fact. This leads to the idea of anAsian Atlantis, which may seem fan-tastic, but early geologists believedsuch a continent existed. The notionmay again be gaining credence afterthe discoveries in the Gulf of Cambayand given NIOT’s intention to investi-gate other submerged archaeologicalsites off Mahabalipuram and Poom-puhar in Tamil Nadu.

Current conceptions of Westernscholars conflict with traditional Indianbeliefs about such things, but thatwasn’t always the case. In the mid-to-late 19th century, when scientific ideasabout human origins had begun to takeshape in Europe, early geologist and ar-

70,000 years ago by Dr. James Feathers at the University ofWashington using thermoluminescence. It has been inscribed bylaser or similar beam. The design consists of a pre-Egyptian Eyeof Ra complete with the two lines representing the falcon's eyemarkings and the cheetah’s tear line. The lines are to either sideof the Eye whereas in the conventional Egyptian version theyappear centered directly beneath the Eye. There is also an imageresembling a bird in upward flight. (Ra's totem is the falcon, he isusually depicted with a falcon's head.) The Eye, the tear at theend of the tear line, and the falcon are all MELTED TO SHINYBLACK GLASS. The normally dark basalt has turned white andred around the features due to the intense heat used in making thedesigns. The lines are not physically carved into the stone, theyare delicately made heat stress fractures from a beam approxi-mately 1/16 of an inch in width. This is the oldest Eye of Ra inexistence in the world today and any qualified person can ex-amine and test the stones to verify their authenticity. I publiclychallenge anyone to disprove my theory. The stones can beviewed by appointment only. There is an email link on my site aswell as more pictures of the Laserstones of Portland, Maine at:

Editor’s Note: Atlantis Rising fre-quently receives first-person reportsand essays from readers which de-scribe original research, discoveriesand conjecture. Previously (beforeissue #25) it had been our policy notto publish such material. The reasonshad to do with limited space and theintention to maintain our own credi-bility by sticking with third-party ob-jective reporting of material which ismaking news. Also, it is important toremember that this is not a profes-sional journal devoted to pure re-search and we cannot become overlytechnical. However, much of the ma-terial we receive, despite the subjec-tive bias of the writers, is quite inter-esting and we feel that at least someof it should be passed on to ourreaders. We are now devoting reg-ular space to such material—onceper issue. We hasten to add that theappearance of such material in At-lantis Rising does not constitute anendorsement from the publisher.Please form your own opinion andlet us know what you think.

n his later years theFrench painter Paul Cé-zanne began to focus ona subject he had knownsince childhood—a

mountain called Monte Sainte-Victoire, overlooking his homecity of Aix-en-Provence. Hewas to paint it over sixty timesand, according to Meyer Scha-piro, “he identified with it asthe ancients with a holy moun-tain on which they set thedwelling or birthplace of agod.”

On a hill to the north of Aixthere is an archaeological siteknown as Entrement datingfrom a pre-Roman period. Itsinhabitants were Celto-Ligurians, andthis site was the capital of a tribe thatthe Romans called the Salyens. Here,archaeologists have found “tracesof…an advanced civilization withshops, warehouses and workshops andalso a large building thought to be ashrine.” The settlement was located atthe end of a rocky peak facing Sainte-Victoire, which was sacred to them,for they identified it with their windgod, Vintour. So Cézanne was far frombeing the first to identify with it “as aholy mountain.”

One spot, particularly, which ap-pealed to Cézanne, was on a hill justnorth of Aix. Known as the Colline desLauves, it is where Cézanne painted 12of his most famous oils, as well as 28watercolors.

made about this particular view of themountain: it looks like a sphinx. Cé-zanne himself never said so explicitly,but he did say that it “spreads acrossthe landscape like a divine being withan imperious thirsting for the Sun.”

With extended forepaws, well-developed chest muscles, arched back,well-defined head and even raisedhaunches, the likeness to a feline is un-canny, and upon closer examinationwe discover something even more ex-traordinary, something Cézanne neverdepicted. Zooming into a photographtaken just before an August sunset, wecan see, exactly where it should be, atruly colossal feline face. In size, it is tothe Sphinx as the Sphinx is to a reallion.

archaeologists to conclude there mighthave been an Egyptian colony there.This was actually due to the Phoeni-cians whose seafaring skills were oftenemployed by the Egyptians. The Greekhistorian Herodotus tells us that theEgyptians commissioned a Phoenicianvoyage around Africa. It is reasonableto assume, then, that during this pe-riod, if the Phoenicians went some-where, then Egyptians were probablythere too.

great travelers and ever homesick fortheir beloved Nile, would have turnedtheir attention immediately to theRhone as a substitute Great River. Tofind a lion mountain also in the areamust have reminded them of theSphinx. However, I believe that if theyhad carved a face in the mountain, itwould have been the face of their Pha-raoh. The Sphinx by then had the faceof a man, not a lion, and if they wereattempting to re-create their homelandsurely they would have carved a pha-raoh’s face on the mountain.

Also, although much of the historyof Phoenician activity is lost, the Egyp-tians kept many records, and we wouldcertainly ex-pect arecord of soenormousand impor-tant a thingas a secondSphinx.Does such arecord exist?

Oddlyenough, atheory hasalready beenput forwardby Graham Hancock and Robert Bauvalthat there may once have been asecond Sphinx. They also suggest thatthe Sphinx, being of far greater antiq-uity than generally recognized, origi-nally had a lion’s face, and that a pha-raoh of a much later period saw fit tohave his own mug carved out of thesandstone. The name of the Sphinx isHor-em-Ahket, and scholars have trans-lated this as ‘Horus-of-the-Horizon’, andI’ve also seen it as “Horus-of-the-Two-Horizons.” Horus was a name of thesun-god, not to be confused withHorus the son of Isis and Osiris. As asun god he was a god of two horizons,namely the east of sunrise, and thewest of the sunset. “The doors of thesky are thrown open at dawn for Horusof the East” say the Pyramid Texts, andthe Giza sphinx has its face lit by therays of dawn. But the sun is also on thehorizon at sunset. What about thesecond horizon, that of the west?

Hancock and Bauval have gone asfar as to suggest that there was origi-nally a second sphinx facing west, andthey draw attention to Egyptian depic-tions of two sphinxes facing in oppo-site directions in The Keeper of Gen-esis. Could it be that the guardian ofthe western horizon was the Provencesphinx at the western end of the Medi-terranean whose face, as we have seen,is made visible by the rays of the set-

ting sun? The Akeru, twin lions, seatedback-to-back with the sun’s disk sup-ported between them, formed an im-portant motif in Egyptian culture.

Evidence has come to light sug-gesting that in ‘prehistory’ there was astrong link between Egypt and theMagdalenian culture which flourishedin southern France prior to 9,500 B.C.Anthropologists have discovered thatskeletons most closely resembling theancient Egyptians were those of theFrench Neolithic. This is supported bythe work of Dr. Stephen Oppenheimer,who traced migrations of peoples viahemoglobin characteristics. During thelast ice age the Mediterranean wasmuch shallower than it is today, as theocean’s water was locked up in two-mile-high ice sheets. In the last threemillion years there have actually beenabout 36 ice ages, and if the Mediterra-

nean wasdry during

any of these,then we

have an ex-planation for

the link be-tween Egypt

and thesouth of

France. TheNile could

have flowedalong the

bottom ofthe basin before joining with theRhone and exiting into the Atlantic viathe Straights of Gibraltar. Egypt wouldthen simply have been upstream.

The Magdalenians are certainlyknown for hyper-realistic depictions ofwildlife in their cave art, and in that eraFrance was home to the likes of rhino,mammoth and wild cats such as lions.As Barbara Hand-Clow writes in Catas-trophobia, “any traces of the lostworld are incredibly significant.” Shedescribes a ‘scientific data conver-gence’ that points to a global catas-trophe around 9,500 B.C., whichcreated a species-level psychologicalwounding and a mass loss of culture.Prior to this, she tells us, humanitylived a very peaceful, whole-brainedand shammanic hunter-gatherer exis-tence, next to which the more recentagriculturally supported city culturesare shamanically rather backward, andany archaeological survivors from thatperiod are very important because theygive us a link to our true heritage. Theycan trigger racial and past-life memo-ries, and their morphic fields re-member the mind-set of the antedilu-vian cultures who built and celebratedthem. Something as major as this mas-sive lion monument must then be areal gold mine, a regular Noah’s Ark,

ANCIENT MYSTERIES

dgar Cayce said that the in-habitants of Atlantis operatedaircraft and submarines, andwere in possession of a fabu-lous technology superior to

that achieved in the 20th century. Thequestion of so advanced a technologyin ancient times is the most difficult ar-gument for many investigators to ac-cept, especially Cayce’s descriptionsof achievements beyond anythingknown today. He said the Atlanteanswere adept at “photographing from adistance” and “reading inscriptionsthrough walls—-eve(519-1 M.39 2/20/34).

The Atlantean“electrical knifewas in such ashape, with theuse of the metals, as to be used as themeans for bloodless surgery, as wouldbe termed today—-by the very stayingforces used which formed coagulatingforces in bodies where larger arteriesor veins were to be entered or cut”(470-33 M.51 6/24/41).

Refugees from Atlantis supposedlybrought to Egypt “electron musicwhere color, vibration, activities makefor toning same with the emotions ofindividuals or peoples that may makefor their temperments being changed.And same may be applied by the entityin those associations with what maybe called the temperments of individ-uals, where they are possessed—-as itwere—-by the influences from without,and those that are ill from diseases thathave become of a nature or vibratoryinfluence within the body as to setthemselves as a vibration in the body”(824-1 M.20 2/11/35).

Cayce told of “a death ray thatbrought from the bowels of the Earthitself—-when turned into the sources ofsupply—-those destructions to portionsof the land” (364-11 4/29/32). This“death ray” may be today’s laser, be-cause Cayce said, in 1933, that it “willbe found in the next twenty-five years”(262-39 2/21/33).

He spoke of “electrical appliances,when these were used by those peo-ples to make for beautiful buildingswithout but temples of sin within”

“At one time the Earth had an in-calculably ancient civilization whichwas, in many respects, superior to ourown, and far in advance of us insome important essentials which themodern world is just beginning tohave cognizance of.”

The Atlanteanswere skilled in “the application of theelectrical forces and influences espe-cially in the association and the activi-ties of same upon metals; not only as totheir location but as to the manner ofthe activity of same as related to the re-fining of some and the discovery ofothers, and the use of the various formsor transportation of same—-or transfor-mation of same to and through thoseinfluences in the experience” (470-22M.48 7/5/38).

At the time Cayce said that the At-lanteans used electrical current for theworking of metals, there was no evi-dence the ancients knew anythingabout electricity, let alone how it mightbe applied to metallurgy. Then, in1938, Dr. Wilhelm Koenig, a Germanarchaeologist, was inventorying arti-facts at the Iraq State Museum, inBaghdad, when he noticed whatseemed to be the impossible resem-

blance of a collection of 2,000-year-oldclay jars to a series of dry cell storagebatteries. His curiosity had beenaroused by the peculiar internal detailsof the jars, each of which enclosed acopper cylinder capped at the bottomby a disk (also of copper) and sealedwith asphalt.

A few years later, Dr. Koenig’s sus-picion was put to the test. WillardGray, a technician at the General Elec-tric High Voltage Laboratory (Pittsfield,Massachusetts) finished an exact repro-duction of the Baghdad jars. He foundthat an iron rod inserted into thecopper tube when filled with citricacid generated 1.5 to 2.75 volts of elec-tricity, enough to electro-plate an ob-ject with gold. Gray’s experiment dem-onstrated that practical electricitycould have been applied to metalworking by ancient craftsmen after all.

Doubtless, the “Baghdad Battery,” asit has since become known, was not

the first of its kind—-a device that repre-sented an unknown technology pre-ceding it by perhaps thousands ofyears, and might have included farmore spectacular feats of electrical en-gineering long since lost.

According to Cayce, the Atlanteansdid not confine their application ofelectricity to metallurgy. They had “theuse of the sound waves, where themanners in which lights were used as ameans of communication” (2869-1M.15 12/19/42). “Elevators and theconnecting tubes that were used bycompressed air and steam” (2157- M.193/37/40) operated in Atlantean build-ings.

Atlantean technology soared intoaeronautics. Airships of elephant hideswere “made into the containers for thegases that were used as both lifting andfor the impelling of the crafts about thevarious portions of the continent, andeven abroad.” They could not only passthrough that called air, or that heavier,but through that of water” (364-6 2/17/32).

Manned flight is practically emble-matic of our times, and we find suchreferences to ancient aeronautics in-credible. Yet, serious researchers be-lieve Peruvian balloonists may have sur-veyed the famous Nazca Lines 2,000 ormore years ago from aerial perspec-tives. Despite reluctance to take Cayce

at his word, equivocal yet tantalizingevidence does indeed exist to at leastsuggest that manned flight may indeedhave occurred in the ancient world.The earliest substantiated journeysaloft took place in the 5th century B.C.,even before Plato was born, when theGreek scientist, Archytas of Tarentum,invented a leather kite large enough tocarry a young boy. It was actually usedby Greek armies in the earliest knownexample of aerial reconnaissance.

More amazing was the discoverymade in the Upper Nile Valley near theclose of he 19th century. The story isbest told by the famous author and ex-plorer, David Hatcher Childress: “In1898, a model was found in an Egyp-tian tomb near Sakkara. It was labeled a‘bird’ and cataloged Object 6347 at theEgyptian Museum, in Cairo. Then, in1969, Dr. Khalil Massiha was startled to

see that the ‘bird’ not only had straightwings, but also an upright tail-fin. ToDr. Massiha, the object appeared to bethat of a model airplane. It is made ofwood, weighs 39.12 grams and re-mains in good condition.

“The wingspan is 18 cm., the air-craft’s nose is 3.2 cm. long, and theoverall length is 18 cm. The extremi-ties of the aircraft and the wing-tips areaerodynamically shaped. Apart from asymbolic eye and two short lines underthe wings, it has no decorations norhas it any landing legs. Experts havetested the model and found it air-worthy.”

In all, fourteen similar flying modelshave been recovered from ancient digsin Egypt. Interestingly, the Sakkara ex-ample came from an archaeologicalzone identified with the earliest dy-nastic periods, at the very beginning ofPharaonic civilization, which suggeststhat the aircraft was not a later devel-opment, but belonged to the first yearsof civilization in the Nile Valley. TheEgyptians’ anomalous artifacts may in-deed have been flying “models” of thereal thing operated by their Atlanteanforefathers. The Cairo Museum’swooden model of a working glider im-plies the ancient Egyptians at least un-derstood the fundamental principles ofheavier-than-air, man-made flight. Per-

HIDDEN HISSTORY

Spys, Drugs and Mind ControlSpys, Drugs and Mind Control

he subject of human mindcontrol has long been con-signed to the realm of luridspy novels and grade B ac-tion movies. Most people

consider the possibility of mind controlby outside influences to be nothingmore than the ravings of lunatics andpsychotics. However, over the years,governments and intelligence agencieshave spent millions of dollars in re-search to determine whether the mindcan be regulated, influenced and con-trolled.

The phrase “mind control” has beendefined to mean many different things,and all these definitions have their ad-vocates. Some believe that mind con-trol involves the harassment of individ-uals for the purpose of disorientingthem, or decreasing their ability to dis-cuss issues of importance. This in-cludes the use of less-than-lethal tech-nologies such as microwaves,electromagnetic irradiation, sonic-waves and other techniques.

Other research concerns individualmind control by means of what iscalled “structured abuse,” what L. RonHubbard once identified as “drug/pain/hypnosis” conditioning.

Some claim that experiments donein the 1940s, 50s and 60s have led toTop Secret electronic machines ca-pable of influencing the minds ofchosen individuals anywhere in theworld.

Others say that microwaves deliv-ering direct-voice communication tothe brain are being used to harassAmerican citizens.

Because of the outrageous nature ofsuch evidence, the media and thepublic have been unwilling to consider

that their most precious freedom—independent thought—could be seri-ously compromised.

The BeginningsOne of the earliest attempts at mind

control involved “Mesmerism,” or as itis known today, Hypnotism. Primitivesocieties have used hypnotic phe-nomena throughout the ages forphysical and spiritual benefits.Tribal drums and ritualisticdances have been a partof many societiesworldwide. Believedto have the powerto heal, kings ofmiddle ageEuropewouldtouchcommonerswith remark-able results.Priests and ministerswould use a laying onof hands to affect changesin the health and fortune oftheir church members.

There have even been paint-ings and sculptures in ancientGreece and Egypt that depict a “curingsleep” induced in subjects by theirleaders to affect healing or change ofmental attitude. This interesting condi-tion gained the attention of doctorsand scientists in the eighteenth cen-tury all because of a man whose namewould later become the name of themental phenomena — Mesmerism,named after Franz Anton Mesmer.

Ben Franklin and the other scien-tists of the time concluded thatMesmer could not take credit for manyhealings attributed to him. The patientwas healing him/her self by using theirown mental power. The patient’s imag-ination was stimulated in such a waythat would enable the person to be-come completely healed. Mesmer wasdeclared a charlatan.

As time went by, further researchon “mesmerism” led many scientists toconclude that Mesmer had indeed acci-dently discovered a hidden feature ofthe human mind. A state of mind called“High Suggestibility.” Because of this,Mesmer is credited with the discoveryof what is now known as hypnosis.

and behavior of humans, there was agreat breakthrough established by Rus-sian doctor Ivan Pavlov, who devised away to make dogs salivate on cue.Pavlov verified that “quality, rate andfrequency of the salivation changed de-pending upon the quality, rate and fre-

quency of the stimuli.” Though Pavlov’s work falls

short of human mind control, itdid lay the groundwork forfuture studies in mind and

behavior control of hu-mans. John B.

Watson foundedthe behavioristschool of psy-

chologybut the

real workwas done

by B.F.Skinner, the

high priest of thebehaviorists move-

ment. The key toSkinner’s work was the

idea of operant conditioning,which relied on the notion of

reinforcement, all behavior that islearned is rooted in either a positive

or negative response to that action. There are two corollaries of operant

conditioning, aversion therapy and de-sensitization. Aversion therapy uses un-pleasant reinforcement to a responsethat is undesirable. This can take theform of electric shock, exposing thesubject to fear-producing situations, orthe infliction of pain. Aversion therapyhas been used as a way of “curing” ho-mosexuality, alcoholism and stuttering.

Desensitization involves forcing thesubject to view disturbing images re-peatedly until they no longer produceany response, then moving onto moreextreme images, and repeating the pro-cess over until no anxiety is produced.Eventually, the subject becomes im-mune to even the most extreme im-ages. This technique is typically used totreat people’s phobias. It has been sug-gested that the violence shown on tele-vision could be said to have the unin-tended effect of desensitization.

ou may have seen im-ages of an entrancedperson lightly walkingbarefoot across a bedof red hot coals

without a single blister. Perhapsyou’ve heard about how a hypno-tized person sitting quietly in achair can feel no pain when aneedle is stuck into his arm. Theperson may even have his eyes openand be watching the process. This isthe type of phenomena often asso-ciated with trance and other alteredstates of consciousness.

For several hundred years Westernthinkers have distrusted these states.That view may be changing. At presentneuroscientists, physicists, psycholo-gists and psychiatrists, medical doctors,and parapsychologists are all trying tounderstand how these types of phe-nomena work and whether or not theyhave value.

An altered state of consciousness(ASC) is generally defined as anymental state that is perceived by an in-dividual, or an observer, as being signif-icantly different from normal‚ wakingconsciousness. These ASCs may rangefrom ordinary daydreams to experi-ences of mystical ecstasy to near-deathexperiences. (see graph on page 36) Aperson can tell if he is in an alteredstate by any of the following signs: al-terations in thinking, disturbed timesense, loss of control, changes in emo-tional expression, changes in bodyimage or sensation, and perceptual dis-tortions.

All ASCs are deviations from ournormal consciousness. Charles Tart,who wrote Altered States of Conscious-ness more than 30 years ago, proposedthat even this normal consciousnessshould in fact be called the consensustrance. This is because how we per-ceive reality is a construct of our beliefsand cultural conditioning. Any time we

perceivea belief asabsolute orunchangeable weare in trance. The waywe live entranced may explain why wehave so much difficulty understandingtrance and ASC. Advocates and skepticsof the value of these states are bothfirmly entrenched in their beliefs aboutthem. Is there a way to understandthese altered states outside of belief? Ibelieve so. I’ll take a look at several ave-nues of scientific inquiry that arebringing together both what we knowobjectively about the brain and whatwe know subjectively from our own ex-perience.

Neurologists have traditionally feltthat all we see, hear, feel and think ismediated or created by the brain. Someare trying to discover the neurologicalunderpinnings to spiritual and mysticalexperiences. Dr. Andrew Newberg hasbeen mapping the brains of meditatorsin mystical states with radioactivetracers pumped into the brain at critical

momentswhich he

then photo-graphs. He

reports thatwhat really

stood out inthe photos

were thequieter areasof the brain.“A bundle of

neurons in thesuperior pa-

rietal lobe, to-ward the top

and back of thebrain, had gone

dark.” This region,called the orienta-

tion associationarea‚ tells us where

we are in time andspace. It requires sensory

input to function. When itquiets down in certain ASCs,

we lose the distinction betweenourselves and the world, we perceive

everything as self, interwoven and con-nected.

This activity, or lack of activity,shows how brain function is related tothese states. Does it mean the nature ofthese altered state experiences is me-chanical? Not necessarily. Consider ifyou were to photograph your brainwhile you were eating an orange. Allthe neurological activity in the brainwouldn’t negate the reality of theorange. Newberg says, “There’s no wayto determine whether the neurologicalchanges associated with spiritual expe-rience mean that the brain is causingthose experiences... or is instead per-ceiving a spiritual reality.”

In related research Michael Per-singer of Laurentian university inCanada uses a device to send a weakmagnetic field into people’s heads to in-fluence their temporal lobes. Thiscreates experiences described as mys-➛

enced ahaunting, reported “rushes of fear” anda visual apparition which he said wasvery similar to his original experience.Persinger suggests that this type of ex-periment may help researchers under-stand what environmental variablesgive rise to the original occurrences ofthis kind of phenomena.

In another paper he seeminglyproves his point. He correlated experi-ences attributed to Christ and Mary atMarmora, Ontario, Canada to the loca-tion of an open pit magnetite mine thathas been filling with water. He notedepicenters for local seismic eventshave also moved closer to the pit.“Most of the messages attributed tospiritual beings by ‘sensitive’ individ-uals occurred one or two days after in-creased global geomagnetic activity.”This research clearly seems to offer acausal, non-paranormal explanation forsome spiritual experiences.

Some researchers believe that whenareas of the brain, like the orientationarea, become quiet, it is a regressionfrom higher functioning to a moreprimitive state, unthinking yet aware.Laurence O. McKinney writes that thestate of “selfless perception would beexperienced as a state of grace to a re-ligious Westerner, samadhi or satori toa Hindu or a Buddhist.” Except he saysthat this self-induced state is a “lowerconsciousness in fact.” McKinney be-lieves that these experiences can bepositive, that “moments of mild ego

loss are instructive, not destructive, be-cause they were done purposefully...Every time we repeat thoughtfullysomething that we love to do, we addto our growing networks of associativeenergy.” Are these states a regressionto a more primitive functioning that isonly beneficial because it’s managed bythe higher consciousness of normalcognitive functioning?

Neuroscientist Rhawn Joseph ques-tions assumptions like this, “Whywould the limbic system evolve special-ized neurons or neural networks ... toexperience or hallucinate spirits, an-gels, and the souls of the living and thedeparted if these entities had no basisin reality? We can hear because thereare sounds that can be perceived andbecause we evolved specialized braintissue that analyzes this information.First came sounds, and then later, spe-cialized nerve cells evolved that couldanalyze vibrations and then later,sounds. Likewise, if there were nothingto contemplate visually we would nothave evolved eyes or visual cortex,which analyzes this information. Visualstimuli existed before the neurons thatevolved in order to process these signs.Should not the same evolutionary prin-ciples apply to the limbic system andreligious experience?”

PIONEERS

a CandidConversation with Gene Savoy

n rare occasions life assem-bles all the right elementsat the right time and place,and a person is bornknowing exactly what they

want to do in life. They start youngand never stop until the fire is extin-guished. If George Lucas based his fic-tional character “Indiana Jones” on acomposite of actual explorersthroughout history, Gene Savoy musthave been one of the main models. Hislife has embodied the best qualities ofthe breed as much and perhaps evenmore than any other explorers in re-cent history.

He says that he cannot recall a timewhen he did not want to be an ex-plorer. Born and raised in the PacificNorthwest, he took an early interest inthe legends and folklore of local NativeAmerican tribes. Savoy claims his ownone-sixty-fourth Cherokee heritagehelped spur his curiosity. During hisstudies he made connections to thepictographic writings and motifs of var-ious North and South American peo-ples that suggested there was somecontact or common heritage betweenthem.

Savoy was ready to launch his firstventure into the forgotten lands ofPeru in 1957. This was long before thecountry had become a hot (archaeolog-ical) tourist spot. South America waslargely primitive at that time and any

exploration into the remote mountainsor jungle areas was an adventure in themost rugged and purest sense of theword. His first major find was Vilca-bamba, the Inca’s last city of refugefrom the invading Spaniards.

My first encounter with Mr. Savoywas through his initial book, Vilca-bamba: Last City of the Inca (RobertHale London, 1970). It is a must readfor anyone interested in the ancient civ-ilizations of the Americas and how anexplorer and independent researcherconducts field investigations. In fact,this book inspired me to head to thejungles of southern Mexico on my ownexplorations in the late ’70s.

Many scholars and armchair archae-ologists develop theories about ancientcivilizations. However, few have thenerve to head to distant jungles to seeif they can prove them. Savoy becameconvinced that the Andes were not thebirthplace of Peruvian civilization; hisresearch pointed to the tropical rain fo-rests to the east. This was the home ofthe fabled, light-skinned Chachapoyas,‘the mysterious cloud people’. It is aland of perpetual mists where toweringpeaks plunge into the Amazon, givingthe scene a mystical appearance.

It was a pleasure to have the oppor-tunity to interview Gene Savoy, who,in his seventies is still very much theexplorer, intent on reclaiming for-gotten pieces of history and the humanspirit.

A.R. How did you use your theorythat there was transcontinental contactbetween ancient cultures of North andSouth America to aid you in identifyingthe most probable areas where undis-covered ruins lay?

G.S. I studied with Dr. Hans Hork-heimer, a German archaeologist andoutstanding Peruvanist, who in hisstudies of Mesoamerica and the Chaco-poyas detected similarities on the archi-tectural sides and facades of buildings,and noted that ideograms, glyphs andornamentations found in Mexico andMesoamerican (sites) were quite similarto those used by Chachopayas in Peru.He also pointed out that many sculp-tures and designs of the Chachopoyasindicated contact with the rain foresteast of the Andes, for example, jaguars,pumas, monkeys, parrots and other fig-ures indicating familiarity with thosejungle cultures.

Henry Reichlen also studied theChacopoyas and noted these same simi-larities with Mesoamerica (Maya &Olmec) and the eastern jungles, i.e.,the Amazon regions. I mention thesetwo scholars with whom I studied andlearned, but there were others. Hork-heimer and Reichlen worked primarilyduring the 1940s. They both encour-aged me to go east into the jungles insearch of new archaeological evidence.So, I turned from archaeology that in-

volved, for example, stratigraphic ex-cavation—leaving that up to the compe-tent specialists, and devoted my timeto historical archaeology and explora-tion.

By finding new sites, I could givethe specialists new areas to study.

Garcilaso de la Vega, who wrote thehistory of Peru titled, “The Incas”,talked about the Chacapoyas Kingdom.Garcilaso had access to a manuscriptby Blas Valera,whose motherwas Chachapoyaand father a Span-iard. Valera laterbecame a priestand wrote a his-tory of the Chach-apoyas. While hismanuscript wasburned during abombardment offthe coast of Spainby Sir FrancisDrake, undoubt-edly much of theinformation con-veyed by Garcilasois still important.

In 1965 webegan to followstone roads that led into the easternjungles in pursuit of the lost cities re-ported by Garcilaso. These were thesame tactics used to locate Vilca-bamba, which many up until that timethought was Machu Picchu, discoveredby Hiram Bingham in 1911.

Over a period of forty years, that is,through 1994, we discovered over 40major sites in the Kingdom of theChacapoyas.

A.R. In your estimation, how didthe ancients quarry, transport and ma-nipulate 20-ton plus blocks of stone?

G.S. It has been proven that theChachapoyas had great engineeringskills, as confirmed by the megalithicsites found, e.g., the mountaintop cit-adel of Kuelap, those of Gran Vilaya,Gran Pajaten and Gran Saposoa (allSavoy discoveries). It is amazing whatmanpower coupled with engineeringskill can accomplish…in addition totime. Lots of skilled engineers andworkers plus lots of time on theirhands...

A.R. Few independent researchersaccept the proposition that the Incasbuilt Sacsayhuaman, Ollantaytanbo, orMachu Picchu. The unorthodox viewis that these sites were built long be-fore the Inca. Do you share this view?

G.S. In creating Tihuantinsuyo(Four Quarters of the Empire), the

Early excavation along

Incas incorporated existing civiliza-tions and the remains of pre-Inca peo-ples and embellished what they had in-corporated. For example, at GranSaposoa we found a large Chachapoyasceremonial site, which had been re-built by the Incas and converted to anadministrative center, according to thearchaeologists with us.

Machu Picchu was probably built byInca Pachacutec. Sacsayhuaman and Ol-lantaytambo give evidence of pre-Incaoccupation.

A.R. There seems to be some evi-dence supporting the idea that Tiahua-naco was a port at the time when the

level of Lake Titi-caca was much

higher. The nativeaccounts refer to

the Viracoachas asthe builders, whoalso taught them

the arts of civiliza-tion. Viracoacha

was described as abearded white

man. What is yourview of the Tiahua-naco civilization?

G.S. Tiahuancocivilization reached

its height around1,000 A.D. andspread to many

parts of Peru.That’s what archae-

ologists say. The legends of Vira-choacha, who had visited Peru from afar away land, speak of Tupa Vira-coacha, who from Tiahaunaco wassent to Antisuyo (the eastern jungles)to teach.

I would say that perhaps at one timeLake Titicaca might have been visitedby peoples coming up rivers from theAtlantic. Still, a great deal of excavationand study needs to be done at Tiahua-naco, and then we will be able to sayfor sure.

A.R. The accepted scientific theo-ries about the many enigmatic ‘ceremo-nial centers’ that archaeologists studyin Peru say they were the focal pointsof religious rituals. But those religiousrituals and the beliefs the people ofthat time held are never described.Since you have discovered so many‘lost cities’ it would seem logical toinfer that you have a degree of knowl-edge about the ancient civilizations ofthe Americas that exceeds academia.

G.S. This is undoubtedly true. Wehave uncovered numerous ceremonialsites in Antisuyo, and there can be noquestion they were used for religiouspurposes.

Now, for example, the Incas were asolar cult. And while they didn’t givereverence to a “supreme being,” they

Were theFounders of the

United StatesGuided by an

Ancient Agenda?

y “Mystery of Bannock-burn” article, publishedin Atlantis Rising issue31, proposed that thegreat 1314 battle for

Scottish independence had been stage-managed by a clandestine brotherhoodthat stood on both sides of the battle-line, and had been forever fixed in timeas an event of great symbolic signifi-cance by uncannily mirroring a simul-taneous encounter in the heavensabove.

Bannockburn, I proposed, was anepic contract between enemies of con-venience, written in the invisible ink ofthe stars at daytime, and sealed withthe blood of battle. It follows that manyof the rank-and-file who fought that daythought they were fighting only forFreedom, but in fact were also fightingso that certain “forbidden” truths couldbe sent quietly forward to a more-enlightened time. The brotherhoodknew that books could be burned, andmessages carved in stone could becrushed into dust, but the arrangementof the heavens would forever remainsafe from tampering. And so it wasthere, supported by some pointed hintsin the “official” record, that they hidtheir secrets!

500 years after the Battle of Ban-nockburn, that brotherhood wouldmeet again to fix yet another date intime and to reaffirm their ancient con-tract. Once again they would pretendto be enemies, and once again theywould hide their secrets in the sky.

Let’s go back.Very early on the morning of Sep-

tember 14, 1814, a young Americanlawyer named Francis Scott Key stoodon the deck of a British “truce” ship,waiting for the dawn. In a letter to afriend, Key would later describedawn’s arrival as a “bright streak ofgold mingled with crimson shotathwart the eastern sky, followed by an-other and still another, as the morningsun rose in the fullness of his glory,lifting ‘the mists of the deep,’ crowninga ‘Heaven-blest land’ with a new vic-tory and grandeur.”

He had just witnessed the end of the25-hour naval bombardment of Mary-land’s Fort McHenry, the fort thatguarded the entrance to Baltimoreharbor.

The sight of an immense Americanflag, flying “o’er the ramparts” of thefort, would inspire him to scribbledown the lyrics to “The Star-SpangledBanner.” That anthem would be Key’ssingle claim to fame, and would com-memorate the most-memorable eventin America’s otherwise most-forgottenwar.

Often referred to as America’ssecond war of independence, therewere several reasons for the War of

M

1812, but the immediate reason was theBritish navy’s nasty habit of boardingAmerican ships and “pressing” certainof the crew into its own ranks on thegrounds that they were British de-serters. The action rankled, andAmerica went to war for the first timeas a sovereign nation.

Much has been speculated about theearly foundations of America. It hasbeen proposed that the country wasbegun as a grand experiment of thebrotherhood of Freemasons, a fraternitythought by many to have grown out ofthe Knights Templar, the mysteriousorder of warrior monks barbarouslysuppressed in France on grounds ofheresy, among other charges, in 1307.It has also been proposed, however,that many Templars escaped to Scot-land, and delivered the decisive blowagainst the English at Bannockburn.Going underground, the order thencobbled together yet another brother-hood within the civil sector that wouldsurvive the Protestant Reformation—thegreat church schism that gave the Vat-ican a new force to reckon with. Al-though the Templar connection is stillhotly debated, that new brotherhood is

thought to be the Freemasons.Almost 300 years after Bannock-

burn, in 1603, the crowns of Englandand Scotland would finally unite underthe first officially Masonic king, Scot-land’s James VI.

Shortly thereafter, the great migra-tion to the New World would begin inearnest.

In Michael Baigent and RichardLeigh’s Temple and the Lodge, the au-thors claim that many of America’sfounding fathers were Freemasons, andthat the precipitating acts of the Amer-ican Revolution were planned by thatbrotherhood. Many Freemasons, theyclaim, were key participants in the fa-mous Boston Tea Party. One of them

This, the first known photograph of theStar-Spangled Banner, was taken at the BostonNavy Yard on June 21, 1873, presumably byCommodore George Preble, a naval historian andauthor of the first history of the American flag,published in 1872. Preble corresponded withGeorgiana Armistead Appleton when he learnedshe possessed the original Fort McHenry flag. Hehad her permission to borrow it so that it could bephotographed for the second edition of his book.Preble found the flag to be too delicate towithstand flying on a flagpole so it was hung fromthe second story of one of the Navy Yard buildings.Afterwards, he wrote to Georgiana ArmisteadAppleton that he "obtained a couple of Marineprivates to stand in full dress and be photographedwith it to show by comparison its size, and at thesame time serve as a guard of honor."

ever, that the top British commanderswere also Freemasons, and showedlittle zeal to win the war. It was per-haps thought more prudent to let thenew land govern itself, while eachcountry’s movers and shakers re-mained bound by brotherly bonds. Amutually beneficial dialog could thenbe quietly maintained, while highly mo-tivated hordes of European immigrantsproceeded to kick America’s indige-nous people about, from place toplace, in the great march west.

But they needed a flag to march be-hind.

It is well known that the first Amer-ican flag was commissioned by Wash-ington, and was sewn by Betsy Ross.But it is less well known that Betsy’shusband was a brother Freemason, andthat Washington described the flag’scircle of stars as “a new constellation.”

BEGINNING ON PAGE 74

While we are taught that the circlesymbolizes the 13 original states, couldWashington have had something else inmind? Might he have been secretly in-voking the Hermetic dictum “As Above,So Below,” a phrase much bandiedabout whenever Templars, Freemasons,and “underground streams of knowl-edge” are discussed in the same breath?Could that stellar circle also symbolizethe letter “O,” for Orion, the constella-tion that played such a pivotal role atBannockburn?

America’s Declaration of Indepen-dence, signed by Washington and manybrother Freemasons, is thought to havebeen inspired by Scotland’s Declarationof Arbroath, signed shortly after Ban-nockburn by many names still asso-ciated with the survival of Templar andFreemasonic ideals. That stirring docu-ment can still be interpreted as a testa-ment to the equality of men and asstrong advice to any temporal ruler un-wise enough to hold the will of thepeople in contempt.

During the years following the Amer-ican Revolution, however, the youngnation somehow failed to develop aunity of spirit that the world’s majorpowers would respect. The war of1812 would change all that, and thebombardment of Fort McHenry wouldforce the world to see the “Stars andStripes” with new eyes, and would givethe American people a song to sing.

The British assault on Baltimore was,like the English assault at Bannockburn,a two-pronged affair. British GeneralRobert Ross, who had shown remark-able restraint by burning only the gov-ernment buildings during his earlier“sack” of the nation’s capital, led hismen towards Baltimore by land. The as-sault failed when Ross became one ofthe first casualties and, with an effecteerily reminiscent of a similar event atBannockburn, his men lost morale.

concise, playful style really works—youfind yourself entertaining the idea that“maybe I could live like that!”

That is what Gelb hopes you will do.He strives to make each genius access-ible and suggests we consider makingone or more of them a personal arche-type or mentor, explaining the differ-ence between the two. “Archetypesaren’t necessarily mentors—they’re uni-versal roles. The Hero, The Goddess,The Trickster, for example affect all ourpsyches, but usually unconsciously. Amentor relationship, on the other hand,is consciously chosen. It’s volitional—you choose to learn. A particular figurecould represent an archetype and thenbe your mentor. Plato represents theArchetype of the Wise Man, a universalphenomenon. I try to help you makehim your mentor as well.”

Facing the daunting challenge ofwhom to select, Gelb created clear cri-teria for inclusion: “I searched for themost world-shaking ideas, discoveries,and innovations in history. I looked forbreakthroughs of thought, action, orcreation that are stunningly original aswell as being universally and eternallyrelevant.” The Team? Plato, Filippo Bru-

in the Battle for ‘Free Energy’

NEW ENERGYNEW ENERGY

Canadian ‘Free Energy’ inventor John Hutchinsonis among those gaining new respect

A high-ranking journalist riskedhis career by probing a taboo

topic, a complex scene iso-lated by fear and ridicule.Defense journalist Nick

Cook of London kept encounteringquestions about hidden developmentsin energy and propulsion. Had the Pen-tagon buried something real for half acentury, some knowledge that couldfree us to explore the stars?

In seeking answers, Cook had tolook at the late 1940s importation ofGerman scientists into what becamethe “black world” of projects in whichNational Security is the excuse to pourbillions of tax dollars into certain com-partments of the military-industrialcomplex without allowing outsiders—including legislators or presidents—toknow what is built with the money.The deep black world is buried so farfrom accountability, it’s as if it doesn’texist.

Cook concluded that by the 1950sthe U.S. was seriously working on“electrogravitics,” a science that looksfor the source of gravity and how tocontrol it. If something could indeedlift and propel vehicles without wingsor thrust, where would the energycome from?

Marc Millis, who recently was headof a NASA breakthrough-physics pro-gram intended to come up with newtheories for propulsion, filled Cook inon the concept of zero-point energy.Briefly, space is not an empty vacuum.Even if chilled to absolute zero (minus273.15 C.) its seething energy doesn’tstop. If it could be mined, it offers apotentially limitless energy source forspacecraft as well as earthboundneeds.

Why was NASA still struggling withtheories today, if eminent engineersand scientists in 1956 publicly saidthey could crack the puzzle of gravity?And then silence had descended onthe topic.

As aerospace consultant for theworld’s leading military affairs maga-zine, Cook had a lot of credibility tolose if his employers and colleagues no-

ticed where his off-the-job investigationswere heading. Re-gardless, Cook inter-viewed researchersfrom Texas to EasternEurope, and endedup writing Hunt forZero Point: OneMan’s Journey toDiscover the BiggestSecret Since the In-vention of the AtomBomb. (The bibliog-raphy includes Man-ning’s The ComingEnergy Revolution asone of Cook’s prin-cipal publishedsources.)

Could such books,exploding with ques-tions, blow the se-crecy covers off non-conventional energyresearch and the dan-gerous world of deepblack projects? Bythemselves books arenot enough, but theycould help to pry a lidopen, by informing amass audience. A crit-ical mass of con-sciousness envi-sioning energy freedomis, in my opinion, necessary beforethere’s hope of mobilizing politicalwill. Three new books—The Search forFree Energy, Turning the Corner, andHunt for Zero Point—could reach atotal of millions of minds if they getenough publicity. One is from a majorpublisher, but in the UK only.

Hunt for Zero Point pries at theheaviest secrecy lid. Wearing his Jane’sDefense Weekly hat and playing by therules, Cook can walk into facilities ofthe classified weapons establishment.But even in his privileged position assenior aviation correspondent for JDW,he ran into frustrating barriers duringhis decade-long search. His book readslike a detective story. Incisive rea-soning leads him to reject one avenue

Nick Cook’s work takes him fromhangar floors to press conferences in“power-soaked corridors of the Pen-tagon.” Looking into the eyes ofpeople who work on classified pro-grams, he intuitively knows the secretthey hide is so big that no one personknows all the pieces. “I knew, too, thatwhatever it was, the secret had a darkheart, because I could smell the fearthat held it in place.”

By the end of the book he hasglimpsed the origins of the darkness. Itis best told in Cook’s evocative, tightand subtle prose. Hint: the spoils ofwar included other Nazi specialists inaddition to scientists.

Years before that glimpse, Cook raninto the story of the late ThomasTownsend Brown, a gifted engineerwhose electrogravitics work had im-pressed some generals in the military.Knowing that disinformation is piledhighest on the most fruitful trails,Cook blows some of it off the trailleading to Brown.

This association withplanted stories about sailors stuck intime warps deter most self-respectingjournalists from investigating Brown’swork, thus serving the secrecy sector.Cook too “could feel the association,with its whiff of paranoia and con-spiracy” repelling him.

Babylonian astronomer priestsfixed the spring equinox inAries four thousand yearsago, and the astrology wehave inherited in the West is

a legacy by way of Greece. In more an-cient times the skies were interpretedon behalf of the collective with theking representing the destiny of therealm. Since the time of the Greeks ho-roscopes have been cast for individ-uals, assessing talents, gifts and pitfallsportended in the life.

The Greeks made the sky personalby giving the gods almost human na-tures and foibles, peopling the heavenswith a host of heroes, animals andmonsters who enacted cyclical mo-rality plays. While Egyptian gods seemmore purely archetypal, the Greekgods inflict the slings and arrows ofoutrageous fortune as archetypal ener-gies interact in finite and vulnerableways with far-reaching consequences.The gods are often jealous, but theycan also be kind.

In her classic work on mythology(Mythology), Elizabeth Hamilton re-marked, “The Greeks did not believethat the gods created the universe. Itwas the other way about: the universecreated the gods.” Before there weregods Heaven and Earth had beenformed and were the first parents. TheTitans were their children, and theOlympian gods were their grandchil-dren.

Ancient Greek cosmogony viewedthe world as having passed throughseveral ages from Creation in the dimmists of antiquity. The tradition be-longing to the legendary poet Orpheusdescribed the concept of Time asemerging first, seeming to exist fromthe beginning. Out of Time cameChaos, an infinite space which con-tained Night, Mist and Aether. AtTime’s command Mist spun in theempty space, forming an egg. (This ishauntingly familiar to the Qabalistic de-scription of the origin of the Tree ofLife as “the beginning of the whir-lings.”) The being Phanes (Light),mated with Night, creating Heaven andEarth. Some sources say the egg split,with Eros (Love) emerging from thecenter, and Heaven (Uranus) and Earth(Gaia) being formed from two halves ofthe egg shell.

The Titans were “Lords” or “Kings”and as such the first divine race. Rheawas the earth goddess, daughter ofUranus and Gaia, and sister-wife toCronus, with whom she bore Hestia,Demeter, Hera, Hades, Poseidon andZeus. These children of the Titans be-came known as Olympians because oftheir heavenly dwelling place.

Cronus (Saturn), was the son ofUranus (heaven) and Gaia (earth). Thiseldest Titan castrated his father andthrew the phallus into the sea, re-sulting in the birth of Aphrodite(Venus). Having rendered his father im-

potent, Cronus liberated his Titan sib-lings and is said to have ruled over aGolden Age.

Since Time devours all, not to beoutdone by his own sky father, Cronus(Saturn and Time) swallowed everyone of his children as they were born.Rhea tricked him into swallowing aswaddled stone instead of Zeus, theyoungest, and then she helped Zeustrick him into vomiting up the rest ofthe godlings. So Cronus too was de-throned, and the Olympian era began.

The Hindu Yugas were named froman ancient Indian game of chance andimplied that at some level, existence it-self is a crap shoot. Similar to theHindu Yugas, the earliest Greek agewas also golden, descending into atime of strife and conflict. The first andGolden age was ruled by Cronus in atime when even humans were im-mortal. Zeus introduced the Silver age,instituting the Seasons (Horae) alongwith work and labor. Another inven-tion of Zeus was the Bronze age whichwas characterized by war and violence.The so-called Heroic age, peopled bydemigods, was filled with derring doand fabulous exploits. The Iron age,like the Hindu Kali Yuga, and soundingmuch like modern times, reeked withcrime, suffering and toil.

sons, Horae in Greek. Mount Olympuswas a heavenly dwelling place, atwelve-roomed mansion in the skies,which was home to twelve Olympiangods and their consorts. Olympus cor-responds to the Norse Valhalla. Zeuswas declared supreme over all theOlympians, claiming the upper worldof the heavens for himself, bestowingthe sea and rivers to Poseidon, and rele-gating the lower world to Hades.

Today’s astronomers use the termCelestial Sphere to denote the heavens.The skies have a “watery” section, anunderworld inhabited by stellar watersnakes and other mythical creatures, aswell as the vault of heaven where thecircumpolar stars rotate around thepole.

Hamlet’s Mill is a scholarly workand a daunting piece of research, accu-mulating myths from around the world,demonstrating similarities of theme andimagery, and showing how knowledgeof the stars was encoded into stories.The authors (Giorgio de Santillana andHertha von Dechend), demonstrated re-peatedly that myth was never intendedto be fiction or fable, but rather toserve as a clever mnemonic device,enabling people to recall and transmitcomplex astronomical informationthrough stories.

“The word myth derives from theGreek mythos and means ‘spokenword’.” The root word is the Indo-Germanic Mu. In German the word“mutter” means mother. In earlier timesmyth was the language, the “spokenword,” and provided the mechanismfor communicating knowledge. In an-cient times people watched the skiesand told their stories like we watch theevening news. Myths were a way to de-scribe what occurred in the sky, so con-stellations were drawn, or dots con-nected between the stars to formpictures, facilitating stellar stories. Inthe Native American lore of the WascoIndians Coyote drew the star pictures.As the “age of reason” expanded, andeclipsed older ways of knowing, thispriceless legacy was unintentionally se-creted.

Myth functions on more than onelevel. Myth as metaphor teaches truthsabout our spiritual selves through thearchetype of the hero’s journey.

the equinoxes and solstices, the car-dinal points of the year. This is why theearth is often said to be quadrangular.The intersections are the four corners,the four directions, and the four winds.The four corners, or zodiacal constella-tions rising heliacally (before the Sun)at both the equinoxes and solsticesform parts of the frame and determinethe ‘earth.’ This frame is one of timeand is not to be confused with thephysical globe which is the planet.

Hamlet’s Mill states that “. . . everyworld age has its own ‘earth.’ It is forthis reason that ‘ends of the world’ aresaid to take place. A new ‘earth’ arises,when another set of zodiacal constella-tions brought in by the Precession de-termines the year points.” The zodiacalconstellation which rises before thesun at the equinoxes and solstices con-stitutes the frame of the current age.The conceptual image might be seen asa platter surrounded by two wirehoops, intersecting the platter atninety-degree angles.

Part two is called “America’s Stone-henge.” 35 miles from Boston in Salem,New Hampshire lies a mysteriously fas-cinating site carved in bedrock. No oneknows how old it is. There are count-less theories on who built it and why.Some think it was carved for ceremo-nies by the ancient Celts; others claimit is of Native American origin but thereal answers remain elusive.

The final segment focuses on the pe-troglyphs of the Southwest. Nestled inNew Mexico’s Rio Grande Valley are

Overall, the videography is verygood and the narration provides a gen-eral historical background for each loca-tion.

twenty individuals for allegedly prac-ticing witchcraft. The Puritan religiousleaders of the day believed that witch-craft was responsible for the trances,convulsions and hallucinations of sev-eral adolescent girls of Salem Village.Long after the fact, some of the ac-cusers recanted their stories and ex-pressed regret over being responsiblefor the death of innocent individuals.

Part two - The Ghosts of Tomb-stone takes us to the frequent home ofinfamous personalities of the WildWest like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday.In those days, Tombstone, which issoutheast of Tucson, Arizona, was thelargest city between Kansas City andSan Francisco. Both Tombstone andnearby Skeleton Canyon were the siteof so many gunfights and ambushesthat the area soon gained the reputa-tion for being one of the most violentplaces in the country. To this daythere are regular sightings of ghosts inthe tourist town of Tombstone.

Finally, the Coral Castle of Home-stead, Florida near Miami is one of themost amazing structures in the UnitedStates. How did one man who wasonly five feet tall and weighed 120pounds singlehandedly quarry, hauland carve 1100 tons of coral rock in

Volume one starts very slowly witha detailed description of Stephen’sbackground which seemed unneces-sary. But this ‘was’ a live presentationso perhaps it was appropriate underthe circumstances. Once he gets goinghe gives us plenty to think about. Wasthe Great Pyramid a Temple of Initia-tion, a Power Plant as ChristopherDunn suggests or something else? Thesubject matter is quite varied andseems to jump around a bit but overallis very interesting and contains infor-mation I had never heard before likethe presence of a Mayan Temple inEgypt, how the Red Pyramid has ga-bled ceilings for harmonic resonanceand much more.

Although it might take several view-ings to digest it all. Ancient Wisdom byStephen Mehler has plenty to offer.

VOLUME ONE: COMETS &ASTEROIDS

Each of the three videos in theCosmic Travelers Series is 50 minuteslong and has impressive computergraphics, historical footage and excel-lent production quality. My only criti-cism of this collection is that there is afair amount of repeated informationand shared graphics between thevideos. Also, part one is quite melodra-matic. Of course we ‘are’ talking aboutthe possible annihilation of all life onEarth, so I’ll cut them some slack onthat one.

That being said, these really are ex-cellent learning tools about the subject.They are quickly paced, visually inter-esting and hold your attention.

Subjects covered in part one in-clude: definitions of comets and aster-oids, the likelihood and effects of acomet or asteroid hitting the Earth, evi-dence of past collision sites on Earthand throughout the solar system, NEAT(Near Earth Asteroid Tracking) byNASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory,NASA’s mission NEAR for a near Earthasteroid rendezvous, a Japanese SpaceMission to gather materials from acomet, and much more.

While you’rereading this, just to set the recordstraight, to impress your friends or incase you’re planning to be a contestanton Who Wants to Be A Millionaire: AMETEOROID usually refers to a smallto medium-sized solid object in space.A METEOR refers to the flash of lightas the METEOROID burns up while en-tering the Earth’s atmosphere and iswhat we often call a “shooting star.”And a METEORITE is what we call anobject that makes it through the atmos-phere without being entirely burnedup. Meteorites can be found almostanywhere and are most often identifiedby three characteristics: 1. They have aburned exterior fusion crust from theextremely hot temperatures as they fallto Earth. 2. They are usually heavierthat most rocks of their size. 3. In mostcases they attract a magnet because oftheir high iron content.

One of the largest and most diversecollections of meteorites belongs to aman in Arizona who just goes outsearching for them with a metal de-tector and a pick. Interesting viewing.

There are millions of aster-oids in the asteroid belt between Marsand Jupiter but science estimates thatthere are as many as 2,000 that are po-tentially hazardous to Earth. Currentlywe only know about 10% of them.More funding is needed to coordinate aworldwide effort to log and monitorthe most dangerous asteroids. Comets,on the other hand, travel 2 to 3 timesfaster than asteroids and can reachspeeds of up to 73 kilometers persecond. This makes early detectionmuch more difficult.

ach year more and more tele-vision and radio stations areowned by fewer and fewercorporations. The unfortu-nate result is that any music

which doesn’t fit into the neatly pack-aged categories of mainstream mediaare less and less likely to be heard. Ifyou happen to like folk music, bluegrass, ethnic, sacred music or practi-cally any other style that isn’t Rock,Rap, Pop or Country, sorry, pal...you’reprobably out of luck. And if you simplywant to expand your musical horizonsand sample what’s out there, chancesare that it won’t be very easy.

In the past, those with more ec-lectic tastes could always rely onPublic Radio for a sampling of “nichegenres” that are not usually heard onmost radio stations. But lately evenPublic Radio has been cutting back onthis kind of programming and stickingwith the “mainstream.” Some cable tel-evision services offer a variety of musicchannels, but if your taste isn’t coveredyou’ll have to search elsewhere.

Stephen Hill, the originator ofHearts of Space, both the recordinglabel and the syndicated radio programis trying a new approach: StreamingAudio on the internet. Although thereis a small fee for the service and themusic cannot yet be accessed with thesame portability that radios have, itdoes offer the advantage of makinghundreds of recordings ‘instantly’ avail-able. Hearts of Space has given lis-teners a chance to explore alternativemusical genres for nearly 30 years andhas a huge library of artists and record-ings that are enjoyed by millions ofpeople but are avoided by the limitedmainstream media. If you’re like me, anavid Atlantis Rising reader, you“know” that there’s a lot more to lifethan is being spoon-fed to the publicby the mass media. So check outHearts of Space online (http://listen.hos.com) and listen to a freesample of a musical world you prob-ably won’t hear anywhere else.

BLISS: OM NAMAHA SHIVAYA IIRobert Gass

Although I’m not personally a bigfan of devotional chants, every once inawhile I’ll put on a CD that immedi-ately feels remarkably peaceful and up-lifting. It doesn’t matter to me what lan-guage they happen to be singing orwhat religious heritage the words maycome from. Good music, with orwithout words, reaches be-yond the limiting con-straints of our minds, relig-ious doctrines andethnicity going right forthe heart. It either reachesyou there or it doesn’t.This one “does.”

Robert Gass along withhis choral group, “Wings ofSong,” has recorded overfifteen albums of chant andsold over 750,000 unitsworldwide. He is an au-thority and lecturer onvocal traditions from spiri-tual customs around theworld and is the author of“Chanting: Discovering theSpirit of Sound” (BroadwayBooks). “Bliss: Om NamahaShivaya II” consists of asingle Sanskrit mantra sungby a choir and accompa-nied lightly by an acousticguitar and bamboo fluteperformed by Steven Gorn.The music creates a beau-tiful, non-intrusive musicalenvironment for homes, cars and work-places and left me with a very peacefulfeeling. Best-selling author, DeepakChopra, offers his endorsement: “Sa-cred chants can bring transformationand open a path to God. Robert Gass’beautiful new Om Namah Shivaya willhelp you achieve both.”

Although I wanted to hear more,there was no reference as to what CD“The First Night” was originally re-leased on.

DOE science position during theClinton Administration.

The litany of poor observation andlack of accountability goes on and on.In February 2000, President Clinton’sWhite House asked me for a report oncold fusion, per the urging of Sir Ar-thur C. Clarke. It was rendered— all8,500 words (Now posted at:www.infinite-energy.com) No re-sponse for 10 months and thenClinton’s pathetic “thank you” note ofJanuary 18, 2001 goes out, as ourformer Chief Executive pardoned crim-inals, while salivating at the $100,000per speech he was about to begin col-lecting. “Thank you for your memo-randum, ‘The Strange Birth of theWater Fuel Age’...I was glad to haveyour insights about the critical chal-lenges in the field of high technology,and I commend your commitment toimproving our world. I hope that youwill remain involved in the importantissues of this new century...” Blah,blah, blah... Oh please, spare me!

As for the present President, still noresponse to a nearly identical entreatyto the one sent to Clinton, this timepublished beginning on the cover ofInfinite Energy Issue #40, post-September 11th. Nor do I expect a re-sponse, not even a thank you note. Aresponse of any kind might mean theinconceivable: bowing slightly to theone simple and unarguably reasonablerequest to both presidents: “Mr. Presi-dent, you need do only one thing now:Publicly state that you are going to in-vestigate this matter and then do it.” Beobservant! Be accountable! Don’t giveus any money. Don’t pass any laws.Just give us the benefit of acknowl-edging that an important issue needs tobe resolved—and the mess that issuedfrom Washington in 1989 will clean it-self up. Hordes of previously silent andtimid media maggots, who fancy them-selves to be high-class science journal-ists but are mere lackeys of propagan-dists, will then emerge from darkholes.

It is a new day. Official Science is atwar with anomalies that threaten itsfoundations. Led by its most egre-giously self-satisfied and arrogantbranch, Official Physics, its micro-minded buffoonish commentators havea scorched Earth policy for all that istruly new.

But how tobring that about when the reigning par-adigm preaches scientific celibacy: therigorous avoidance of any and all ob-servations that conflict with Space-Time, Big Bangs, Little Bangs, CoulombBarriers, and the opinions of your localuniversity’s Quantum Mechanic?

His ad-vice was that the winning laboratorieshad “greater experience in the field ofarchaeological radiocarbon dating.” Anodd conclusion, considering Harwellhad more than all three of the winnersput together. Meanwhile, the variouslabs had been lobbying strongly for ex-clusivity, fearing a competing labmight steal their thunder. The Cardinalthen decreed that the PontificalAcademy of Sciences should have nofurther part in the testing, at a stroketaking the Pope’s chief scientific ad-viser, and Professor Gonella’s avowedenemy, out of the loop, while reas-serting Turin’s de facto control overthe Shroud. He further decreed thatthe Swiss textile specialist was out,thus leaving Dr. Michael Tite, the head

of the British Museum’s Re-search Laboratory and thedesignated supplier of con-trol samples, as the sole sci-entific guarantor of thetests’ integrity.

Ian Wilson says CardinalBallestrero’s letter so dis-turbed the winners thatthey drew up an initial jointresponse and declaredthemselves “hesitant to pro-ceed” and argued for “fur-ther consideration” of thedecision. Professor Gove,the man who’d spent tenyears to get the tests orga-nized, and was now out,was so upset that he firedoff a fruitless letter to thePope and then withGarman Harbottle of the BrookhavenLaboratory issued a scathing press re-lease which, besides noting Harwell’svastly greater experience and the fact

The sampleswere duly taken on April 21, 1988 byTurin microanalyst Giovanni Riggi, Pro-fessor Gonella’s friend and in the tokenpresence of Gabriel Vial of the TextileMuseum in Lyon, France. Signore Riggidid not follow the Protocol. Rather, hetook twice as much as agreed, dividingthe take first in half, then keeping onehalf for himself, while dividing andsending out the other half in threeparts. The Tucson lab would’ve beenshort weighted, had Signore Riggi notdiscovered his mistake in time to sendthat lab its proper portion, albeit intwo segments, with the balance takenfrom his retained stock. Nature maga-zine revealed his activities when it pub-lished information showing a samplehad been excised far in excess of whatthe labs got. It is also known that Sig-nore Riggi kept the trimmed edges,edges which have since disappeared.Ian Wilson believes that Cardinal Salda-rini, Cardinal Ballestrero’s successor,may have the portions held back bySignore Riggi.

To further complicate matters, thedesignated labs didn’t standardize thedocumentation of the samples theygot, with some photographing thefront, others the back, and not onebothering to include the customaryvisual scale. Some here might thinkthat insignificant, but radiocarbondating destroys the samples.

What followed bore all the hall-marks of a directed study, with well-placed leaks to the media paving theway for the official “Shroud’s med-ieval!” announcement. The labs did notwork in isolation. Far from it. Theybroke compartmentation repeatedlywhile supposedly testing indepen-dently. Not only that, but the controlsamples were so obviously of differentweave, even mere threads, that theywere immediately identifiable as not

being from the Shroud. Any reputable scientist could’ve

comparisons, the lack of proper con-trol samples, the illicit communicationduring the testing among the labs, theuse of identical testing techniques byall three labs, not to mention the pre-mature release of results before anykind of peer review. Nor have we evenaddressed the matter of institutionalbias. Oxford, you see, was at war withHarwell for funding that would keepan atomic laboratory going at only oneinstitution. And who took over at Ox-ford’s richly funded chair in 1989? Dr.Michael Tite, the man who’d beencharged with guaranteeing the interna-tional scientific credibility of the 1988tests.

Why Bad Radiocarbon Dates?Let’s be hypercharitable and assume

that everything was done by the bookinstead as detailed above. Huge prob-lems still remain. Radiocarbon datingis based on comparing the ratio be-tween radioactive carbon 14 and non-radioactive carbon 12, taking into ac-count the known decay rate for carbon14, whose half life is 5370 years.Carbon dioxide uptake from the atmos-phere stops when the organism dies,when radioactive decay begins and canbe measured. What if the other as-sumptions behind radiocarbon datingdon’t hold true? What if the assumedbackground levels for carbon 12 andcarbon 14 aren’t fixed, and they havein fact varied over time? What if thesample was exposed to additionalcarbon? What if the sample, in spite ofa nasty chemical soup intended to striporganic contaminants, stayed contami-nated? Let’s take a look.

France during a fire in March 6, 1349(see www.shroud.it/EVENTS.HTM fordetails). What is historically undisputedis that the Shroud was burned throughin places and scorched by the 1532 firein Chambery, France on the night be-tween December 3 and December 4. Itwas patched by the Poor Clare nuns in1534. The fire damage was confirmedby ultraviolet fluorescence testing per-formed by the Shroud of Turin Re-search Project (STURP) in 1978.

Natural DeviationsRemi Van Haelst, writing in his

paper “Natural deviations in the radio-carbon equilibrium in the atmosphere.Finally, a scientific explanation for themediaeval dating of the Shroud,”posted on the Collegamento pro Sin-done (College of the Shroud) Internetsite notes an array of error sources forradiocarbon dating. He agrees withsome colleagues that what one actuallygets is really not so much a date as astatement of probabilities. This is be-cause there is evidence that the key as-sumptions underlying the process maynot be correct. There was more carbon14 in the atmosphere in ancient timesthan in 1950 when W.F. Libby becamea Nobel laureate for inventing radio-carbon dating. He treated the half lifeof carbon 14 as being 5570 years; todayit’s 5730, with some thinking it’s really

7200 years. Worse, there are periodicfluctuations of the carbon 14 concen-tration over time. As one source hecites notes, any radiocarbon date, at95% confidence, can be off by as muchas 500 years, and that’s without fac-toring in sample contamination. An-other set of discoveries is that carbon14 levels in plants are affected by theheight and position of a given leaf on atree and in animals by what they eat.All of these factors tend to skew theoutcome.

ANCIENT INDIA

Continued from Page 25chaeologists accepted the idea of a bib-lical Flood, lost continents (for whichthey found much evidence), and a landmass in the Indian Ocean—the greatSouthern Continent of British naturalistAlfred Russell Wallace. Even today,mainstream science believes such landmasses existed, Gondwanaland andPangea—though they are relegated toextremely ancient epochs, 180 to 200million years ago, in keeping with be-liefs about the age of the planet necessi-tated by an admittedly improbable evo-lutionary process. And consider thesouth Asian traditions that mimic thefindings of the early geologists, thosethat say an inhabited continent existedacross what is now the Indian Ocean,the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal,an idea that lives to this day in the lore

An ancient bath in Mohenjo Daro

of southern India, Sri Lanka, and in theislands of the Andaman Sea.

“…In a former age,” an ancient SriLankan text states, “the citadel ofRawana (Lord of Lanka), 25 palaces and400,000 streets were swallowed by thesea…”

The submerged land mass, ac-cording to one ancient account, restedbetween Tuticoreen, on the southwestIndian coast, and Manaar in Sri Lanka,not a land mass of the size envisionedby the early geologists, but—if it actu-ally existed—a submerged portion ofthe Indian subcontinent just the same.

Another cultural tradition, cited inAllan and Delair’s Cataclysm, Compel-ling Evidence of a Cosmic Catastrophein 9,500 B.C., that of the Selungs of theMergui Archipelago off southernBurma, also speaks of a sunken landmass:

“…formerly [the] country was ofcontinental dimensions, but thedaughter of an evil spirit threw manyrocks into the sea…. the waters roseand swallowed up the land…. Every-thing alive perished, except what wasable to save itself on one island that re-mained above the waters.”

One of the Tamil epics of southernIndia, the Silappadhikaram, fre-quently mentions a vast tract of landcalled Kumara Nadu, also known asKumari Kandam, stretching far be-yond India’s present-day coasts. An-cient south Indian commentatorswrote in detail of a prehistoric TamilSangham, a spiritual academy situatedin that ancient land, and then the sub-mersion of two rivers in the middle ofthe continent, the Kumari and Pahroli,and of a country dotted with mountainranges, animals, vegetation, and forty-nine provinces. This Pandyankingdom, according to tradition,reigned from 30,000 B.C. to 16,500B.C. At least one branch of modern-daysouth Indian mystics claims a direct lin-eage from those extraordinarily ancienttimes, when their spiritual progenitorswere said to have achieved extremelylong lives through yogic techniques.

And India’s epic poem, the Mahab-harata, dated by non-

westernized Indianscholars to 5000 years

before Christ, containsreferences that places itshero, Rama, gazing fromIndia’s present-day west

coast into a vast landmass now occupied bythe Arabian Sea, an ac-

count supported by therecent underwater dis-

coveries. Less celebratedIndian texts even men-

tion advanced tech-nology in the form of air-

craft used to transportthe society’s elite and wage war. Thewritings describe these aircraft in detailand at great length, puzzling scholarsand historians. The great Indian epics,what’s more, vividly describe milita-ristic devastation that can only beequated with nuclear war. Was thereonce, not just an ancient civilization inIndia, but an advanced ancient civiliza-tion?

Flying Machines, Lost Continents,are these mythical tales of mythicallands or do these ancient referencesprovide us with a historical record,long forgotten, and then dismissed byWestern science as fantasy?

To answer that question, we mustlook at the history of scholarship as itpertains to India. Since the 19th cen-tury, Western scholars have dismissedthe historical significance of the cul-tural traditions of ancient peoples,those of southern Asia included. With adecidedly ethnocentric bias, the ex-perts reinterpreted history as it wastaught in the East. Having found, forexample, that root words of India’s an-cient sanskrit turn up almost univer-sally in the world’s major languages,Western scholars devised an ethnocen-

two Roman boats found in Antwerp,Belgium had radiocarbon dates of 900A.D. Stratigraphy and hull designshowed them to be from 300 A.D., a600-year error.

New BiocontaminantsEnter Dr. Leoncio Garza-Valdes of

the University of Texas, San Antoniowith a big problem. While testing theauthenticity of a Mayan artifact heowned, he discovered the object’sshiny coating was bioplastic in nature.This coating was practically invisible,being clear, but was found to cause a200-year underread of the age of bloodscrapings taken from the ritual object.He wondered whether the Shroudmight have similar contamination anddecamped for Turin in 1993, micro-scope in hand. In viewing some of Sig-nore Riggi’s sequestered Shroud sam-ples, he immediately found evidenceof massive bioplastic contaminationfrom fungi and bacteria growing onthe Shroud, a problem made worse bySignore Riggi’s having taken the sam-ples from the area most handled downthrough the ages. Dr. Garza-Valdes wasable to directly confirm biocontamina-tion by culturing a few threads in a nu-trient-filled Petri dish. He told IanWilson and spouse: “What happens isthat the bacteria reproduce like crazyfor two weeks.” Live bacteria = unac-counted for young carbon = wrong andlow date. Even using the chemicalstripper at six times normal strengthfailed to get rid of the biocontamina-tion.

After this, Dr. Garza-Valdes teamedwith Professor Stephen Mattingly, headof Microbiology at UT, San Antonio tothoroughly study the coating andverify its existence. This effort culmi-nated in a study of a mummified Egyp-tian ibis and its wrappings conductedby Professor Harry Gove, Dr. RosalieDavid, Dr. Garza-Valdes, and ProfessorMattingly. The conclusion in theirjointly authored 1997 paper totally sup-ported the biocontamination hypoth-esis. The wrappings came back as aver-aging 550 years younger than themummy. Procedures were exactly asfor the Shroud and by the Tucson lab.

The publishing of this paper wasthe last for Dr. Garza-Valdes and Pro-fessor Mattingly. The former pressedon with his work regarding blood,DNA, vinegar and wood microsamplestaken from the Shroud to produce thecontroversial, popular 1999 book, TheDNA of God, while Professor Mattinglypreferred to pursue academic re-searches into the Shroud’s image for-mation, emerging with a possiblebreakthrough based on bacterialtransfer from the body to the originalshroud. According to what the pro-fessor told AR during a phone inter-view, Ian Wilson tacitly concurs.

tric scheme to explain the phe-nomena—one that modern Indian intel-lectuals have come to accept.

A previous European people musthave once existed, the scholars ima-gined, an Indo-European race, uponwhich the world, and India, drew uponfor its linguistic roots and geneticstock. The scholars also expropriatedthe Aryans of ancient India to flesh outthis scenario. This race, they told us,derived from Europe and then invadedthe Indus Valley in the North of India—making Sanskrit and Vedic culture rela-tively young and a product rather thana progenitor of Western civilization.

The Aryan Invasion theory has sincefallen into disrepute. James Schaffer ofCase Western University, a noted ar-chaeologist specializing in ancientIndia, had this to say on the matter.“…The archaeological record and an-cient oral and literate traditions ofsouth Asia are now converging.”

In other words, India’s mythology isbeing proved historically accurate.

Schaffer then wrote. “…A fewscholars have proposed that there isnothing in the ‘literature’ firmlyplacing the Indo-Aryans outside ofsouth Asia, and now the archaeologicalrecord is confirming this.…We rejectmost strongly the simplistic historicalinterpretations [of Western scholars],which date back to the eighteenth cen-

62 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 33

tury…. These still prevailing interpreta-tions are significantly diminished by Eu-ropean ethnocentrism, colonialism, ra-cism….”

Southern India, a land whose cul-tural roots are said by some to stretchinto an even more profound antiquitythan the North, suffered a similar fate.Speakers of a proto-Dravidian language,the forerunner of a family of languagesspoken in the South, and some say ofSanskrit itself, entered India from theNorthwest, the Western scholars in-sisted. Both invasion theories were ne-cessitated by Western beliefs, at firstabout the Garden of Eden theory of ori-gins, and then, with the arrival of theDarwinists, beliefs about the widelyheld Out of Africa theory.

But the Aryan Invasion theory hasbeen debunked. No skeletal evidenceshows any difference between the sup-posed invaders and the indigenouspeople of India. And satellite imagerynow shows that the ancient Harrapancivilization of the Indus Valley, and Mo-henjo-Daro, probably declined and dis-appeared due to climatic changes, thedrying up of the mythical SaraswatiRiver, rather than the descent of imagi-nary invaders. The demise of the AryanInvasion theory, though, and the re-cently discovered underwater ruins,open a Pandora’s Box for orthodoxscholars regarding the past, not just

India’s past, but that of the humanrace. For if Sanskrit predates theworld’s other languages, and if ancientcivilizations existed where there arenow seas, how can prehistory be ex-plained in modern Western terms?

And how much of the actual historyof India is still obscured by ethnocentri-cism, colonialism, scientific materi-alism? The demise of the Aryan Inva-sion theory, in light of recentunderwater findings, may representonly the tip of the iceberg of miscon-ceptions about the age and nature ofancient India, her culture, people andaccomplishments.

It has long been claimed thatMother India was born in a time beforeall myth began, when great rishiswalked the earth, men of wisdom andphenomenal spiritual attainment. Thisancient India dates to the times out ofwhich the epic poems grew, the Ra-mayana, the Mahabharata, and the an-cient traditions of Tamil Nadu in theSouth—a land whose culture is said bysome to predate that of the North,having once existed as part of KumariKandam and dating to a staggering30,000 BC. A great deluge inundatedKumari Kandam, obscure texts of theSiddhanta tradition of Tamil Nadu re-portedly say, a notion echoed in thewritings of Colonel James Churchwardand W. S.

knowledge of texts, Indian and Tibetanrespectively, that speak of a long lostcontinent situated in the East.

While continental drift theory pre-sumes extremely slow and uniformmovement of land masses over manyhundreds of millions of years, a greatdeal of evidence exists that Earth’s sur-face changed rapidly and violently inrecent prehistory. A great sudden ex-tinction of mammals and plants tookplace on the planet around the end ofthe last Ice Age, perhaps as recently as12,000 years ago. Hundreds of mammaland plant species disappeared from theface of the earth, many of the carcasseshaving been driven by flooding intodeep caverns and charred piles theworld over. Modern science has beenunable to adequately explain thisevent, and unwilling to consider whatseems obvious, based on the evidence.

D.S. Allan and J.B. Delair, in Cata-clysm...9500 B.C. amassa formidable quantity ofknown evidence corrob-orating the flood/conflagration legendsstored in the world’s my-thological record. If wesuspend belief in thetextbook accounts ofprehistory, Allan and De-lair fill the void in a con-vincing way, replacinggradualist doctrines thatinvolve extremely slowglacial movements(which are supposed tohave accounted for thegreat extinction) withwhat seems to havebeen, upon a review ofthe evidence, a world-wide, phenomenal dis-aster that submergedland masses and rup-tured the earth’s crust.

Much of the evidence centersaround southern Asia. Records gath-ered by the Swedish survey ship Alba-tross in 1947 reveal a vast plateau ofhardened lava for at least several hun-dred miles southeast of Sri Lanka. Thelava, evidence of a severe rupture inthe earth’s crust, fills most of the nowsubmerged valleys that once existedthere. The immense eruption that gaveoff the lava may have coincided withthe downfall of Wallace’s SouthernContinent (a.k.a. Kumari Kandam) forwhich much zoological and botanicalevidence exists that would give such aland mass a recent date, according toAllan and Delair, not the 180 millionyears that orthodoxy ascribes to such acontinent. The lost cities of the Gulf ofCambay may have suffered a similarfate, at the same time or as a result ofunstable tectonic conditions resultingfrom the initial disturbance—an as-

teroid perhaps, or a displacement ofthe earth’s crust—that caused the re-cent extinction and destruction of theancient cities.

Among the troves of evidence com-piled by early geologists, and resur-rected by Allan and Delair, are Asianbone caves filled with diverse speciesof recent prehistoric animals fromaround the world. These carcassescould only have been driven to theirfinal resting places by vast amounts ofwater moving across the globe. In lightof Allan and Delair’s work, other evi-dence, such as India’s Deccan trap, avast triangular plain of lava severalthousand feet thick covering 250,000square miles, and the Indo-Gangetictrough, a gigantic crack in the earth’ssurface stretching from Sumatra andthrough India to the Persian Gulf, canbe interpreted as evidence of a cata-clysm that ruptured the earth’s crust,

submerged various landmasses, and caused the

great extinction.Other titillating frag-

ments of anomalous evi-dence suggest a perva-

sive if not advancedseafaring or even air-borne culture having

once existed in ancientIndia: the identical na-

ture of the Indus Valleyscript to that found at

Easter Island on theother side of the Pacific

ocean. Initial reports sug-gest, it should be noted,

the script found recentlyin the Gulf of Cambay re-sembles the Indus Valleyscript. According to cer-

tain south Indian re-searchers, the indeci-pherable scripts are aproto-Tamil language,

which would link the culture of distantEaster Island and its famous megalithicstatues with ancient southern India,Kumari Kandam—an idea echoed in thelore of Easter Islanders about a lost con-tinent to the West from which theirpeople originated.

With the recent advent of under-water archaeology, records of the pastare being rewritten. More research isneeded, more expeditions into treach-erous waters, the depths of the world’soceans and those of entrenched para-digms; but more than ever, textbookscenarios of prehistory are drowning oftheir own weight, while scenes of amore glorious past rise to the surfacevia acoustic imaging. The past beingprologue, those images are of interestnot to academics alone, but to all whowould solve the mystery of human ori-gins.

carrying treasures across from the ante-diluvian age of animal totemism. Per-haps the emergence of the Provencelion-monument into popular conscious-ness will be part of a healing of thedeep wounds that have limited hu-manity since the last ice age.

Archaeoastronomy seeks to date an-cient monuments by looking at theiralignments to the stars. Interestingly,the alignment of Aix-Victoire with theLeo equinox Sun takes us back to thatnow infamous 10,500 B.C. date be-loved of the likes of Hancock andBauval. This also coincides with thelate Magdalenian culture of France andSpain. Since Aix is east of Sainte-Victoire, the Leo constellation wouldhave risen over the form of the lion asits stellar counterpart, both lions facingin the same direction. The Magdalenianculture stretches from deep in ‘pre’-history—at least 20,000 years ago.

Archaeoastronomy is not an exactscience. The Zodiac rotates fully duringthe course of the year, and the Sunrises due east not only at the Springequinox but also at the autumnequinox. Any alignment will point toLeo some time during the year. So it isquite possible that the monument maybe older even than the latter end of theMagdalenian era.

In the last years of the twentiethcentury a new discovery was madenear Avignon, also in Southwest France(i.e., the same region as Sainte-Victoire). The Chauvet cave complex isas awesome as the one at Lascaux, ifnot more so. It is also 13,000 yearsolder, having been dated to between29,700 and 32,400 years ago! Its im-pressive artwork includes studies ofthe faces of lions, as well as bears, rhi-noceroses and a total of 14 types of ani-mals, including an owl. The lion faceshown reveals a great sensitivity, remi-niscent of the face on Sainte-Victoire.

Given that the Mediterranean mayhave been dry during the ice age, it islogical to assume that the main settle-ments of their civilization were en-gulfed by the rising waters. In fact,caves containing Magdalenian art havebeen found 137 feet beneath the sea.So what we think of as their homelandin France would actually have been justthe rural mountainous outlying dis-tricts. We have to wonder if they mightnot have been an advanced civilization.

In the ancient French traditionthere was an enormous Earth-god giantcalled Gargantua, who had the abilityto raise mountains and bend rivers, andgenerally shape the landscape. It wasthe Gorgon’s head that was said tohave turned Mount Atlas into stone,

and ‘Gorgon’ and ‘Gargantua’ comefrom the root-word ‘Gar’, which means‘stone’. Possibly the myths of the Gor-gons and Gargantua must be a memoryof an ancient people skilled at shapingthe landscape.

The Greek historian Timagenouswrote that tribes in ancient France saidthat their original home was Atlantis, asunken continent in the AtlanticOcean. Books like Hancock’s Finger-prints of the Gods have isolated manymonuments that seem to date frompre-history, and many of them have incommon the use of vast stone blocksseveral hundred tons in weight that wewould have great difficulty shaping soaccurately and transporting even today.This seems to confirm the stories ofGargantua, suggesting that there reallywas a civilization deep in antiquitywith extremely advanced building androck-crafting skills—number one sus-pects for the Aslan mountain, I wouldsay. For this reason I have named themonument Aslan, since the name hasan assonance with Aztec name for At-lantis—Aztlan.

The quote from Childress is ex-cerpted from his book, Vimana Air-craft of Ancient India and Atlantis,the most complete examination of thesubject. In it, he was able to assemblesurprising evidence from the earliestHindu traditions of aircraft supposedlyflown in ancient times. Then known as“Vimanas,” they appear in the famousRamayana and Mahabharata, and theless well-known but earliest of the In-dian epics, the Drona Parva. Aircraftwere discussed in surprisingly tech-nical detail throughout several manu-scripts of ancient India. The VimaanikaShastra, Manusa, and Samarangana Su-tradhara, all classic sources, addition-ally describe “aerial cars” which wereallegedly operating from deeply prehis-toric times.

Each of these epics deals with aformer age hinting at the last, bellicose,cataclysmic years of Atlantis. Childress’collection of impressive source mate-rials dating back to the dawn of Hinduliterature heavily underscores Cayce’sdescription of flying devices in Atlantis.

It is important to understand, however,that these Vimanas had virtuallynothing in common with modern avia-tion, because their motive power wasutterly unlike combustion or jet en-gines, and had little to do with aeronau-tics, as we have come to understand it.

Apparently, the Atlanteans operatedtwo types of flying vehicles: gas-filleddirigible-like craft, and heavier-than-airVimanas directed from a central powersource on the ground. While the latterrepresented an aeronautical tech-nology beyond any known aircraft, theballoons Cayce describes featured a de-tail that suggests their authenticity.

They probably would have beentoo heavy to serve as envelopes for thecontainment of any lighter-than-air gas.But lighter, expandable and non-leaking elephant bladders might haveworked. In any case, Cayce says thatthe Atlanteans used the animals, whichwere native to their kingdom, for a va-riety of purposes.

Thescientists concluded thatthe animals had ancientlywandered across a nowsubmerged land-bridgeextending from the At-lantic shores of North Af-rica into formerly dryland long since sunk be-neath the sea. Their dis-covery gave special cre-dence to not only Plato,but Cayce as well.

No less surprising arethe submarines known tothe early 5th CenturyB.C. Greek historian, He-rodotus, and the 1st cen-tury A.D. Roman natu-ralist, Pliny the Elder.Even Aristotle wroteabout submarines. His most famouspupil, Alexander the Great, was said tohave been on board a glass-covered un-dersea vessel during an extendedshake-down cruise beneath the EasternMediterranean Sea, around 320 B.C.While these submersibles may havegone back 23 centuries or so, Atlantishad already vanished about 1,000 yearsearlier. Even so, if such inventionstook place in Classical Times, theymight just as well have operatedduring the Bronze Age, which was notmuch technologically different.

Ancient aeronautics paled in com-parison to even greater technologicalachievements, as Atlantean scientistssucceeded “in the breaking up of theatomic forces to produce impellingforce to those means and modes oftransportation, or of travel, or of liftinglarge weights or of changing the facesor forces of nature itself” (364-4 2/16/32). The same life-reading explains thatexplosives were invented by the Atlan-teans. Seven years earlier, he men-tioned “the Atlantean period, whenthose first of the explosives weremade” (419-1 M.18 11/18/26). IgnatiusDonnelly, the father of modern Atlan-tology, wrote even earlier that explo-sives were developed in Atlantis.

Cayce explained that the Atlanteanswere able to create such an advancedsociety because their civilization devel-oped over a more or less continuous,unbroken history until the final catas-trophe. Their cultural evolution hadbeen graced with many centuries ofgrowth in which to develop and per-fect the scientific arts. The basis of thisancient technology was an under-standing and application of crystalpower. Through it, the motive forcesof nature were somehow directed toserve human needs. Transportation on,above or under the sea became pos-sible, and long-distance communica-tion bound the world of Atlantis to-gether.

We find such a high level of materialprogress set in prehistoric times incom-prehensible and beyond belief. Yet,many better-known civilizationsachieved technological breakthroughswhich were forgotten when their socie-ties fell, only to be rediscovered, some-times thousands of years later. InMiddle America, for example, Maya ac-complishments in celestial mechanicswere not matched until the last cen-tury. Inca agricultural techniques, aban-doned with the Spanish Conquest,yielded three times as much producethan farming methods employed inPeru today.

At the same time Plato was writingabout Atlantis, his fellow Greeks weresailing the Alexandris; more than 400feet long, she was a colossal ship, thelikes of which would not be seen againfor another 2,000 years. A pregnancytest in use among 18th Dynasty Egyp-tians was not rediscovered until the1920s. As for Egypt, our modernworld’s top engineers lack the know-how capable of reproducing the GreatPyramid in all its details. Certainly, farmore was lost with the fall of ancientcivilization than has yet been found.

Moreover, our times do not have amonopoly on human beings of greatgenius and inventiveness. That theywere able to create complex technolo-gies in other times and societies longsince forgotten should not over-tax ourcredibility. And if one of those lostepochs belonged to a place known asAtlantis, we have it on the authority ofWestern civilization’s most influentialphilosopher and the foremost psychicour country has yet produced.

However they may disagree in theirinterpretations of the lost civilization,both metaphysical and worldwide my-thological sources are almost unani-mous in describing a central role forthe sophisticated technology of Atlantisin its ultimate destruction. Cayce said

that the Atlanteans grew intoxicated

BEGINNING ON PAGE 74

with the material won-ders made possible

through quartz crystaltechnology. The richesand luxury it generated

inspired them with an in-satiable desire for abun-dance. They turned the

beams of their power-crystals into the very

bowels of the planet, ex-cavating for even greater

mineral wealth. Prodig-ious amounts of highgrade copper, which

fueled the bronzeweapons’ industries of

the Pre-Classical World,and gold enough to sheet

the walls of their citypoured forth from Earth’s

violated cornucopia. The coppermining operations of prehistoric Mich-igan still bear the scars of Atlanteantechnology. For example, some un-known device enabled the ancientminers of the Upper Peninsula to sinkpits sixty feet vertically through sixtyfeet of solid rock. Another piece of lostinstrumentation directed them to allthe richest veins of copper hiddenunder the hillsides of Isle Royale andthe Kewanee Peninsula. These and sim-ilar achievements of the late 4th millen-nium B.C., which allowed the prehis-toric miners to remove a minimum ofhalf-a-billion pounds of raw copper, areno speculation; they have been knownto archaeologists for more than 100years. Perhaps in over-reaching them-selves through their mining operations,the Atlanteans excavated too deeplyinto the already seismically unstableMid-Atlantic Ridge on which their cap-ital perched. They were blind to the ge-ologic consequences of their ecologicalselfishness, and regarded our livingplanet as an inexhaustible fount of min-eral wealth. Parallels with our times areuncomfortably close.

The Atlanteans reveled in an orgy ofself-indulgent materialism. But, at someindefinable point, long-suffering Naturerebelled. The threshold of her forbear-ance had been crossed, and she chas-tised her sinful children with a terriblepunishment. Her fires of hell opened toengulf opulent Atlantis in a volcanicevent so cataclysmic it decimated theentire island. The crumbling, inciner-ated city with its screaming inhabitantswas dragged to the bottom of the seaand into myth. The “great, terriblecrystal”—the source of the Atlanteans’unexampled prosperity had becomethe instrument of their doom.

MIND CONTROL

Memorial at the Dachau concentration camp

Continued from Page 32centration camp in Germany had beenconducting mind control experimentson inmates. They experimented withhypnosis and with the drug mescaline.Though they did not achieve the de-gree of success they had wanted, theSS interrogators in conjunction withthe Dachau doctors were able to ex-tract the most intimate secrets fromthe prisoners when the inmates weregiven very high doses of mescaline.

Dachau was filled with Commu-nists, Social Democrats, Jews, gypsies,clergymen, homosexuals and peoplecritical of the Nazi government. Uponentering Dachau, prisoners lost alllegal status, their hair was shaved off,all their possessions confiscated andthey were used as slaves for both cor-porations and the government. As atDachau, there were fatal mind controlexperiments conducted at Auschwitz.The experiments there were describedby one informant as “brainwashingwith chemicals.”

The Dachau and Auschwitz experi-ments were written up in a lengthy re-port issued by the U.S. Naval TechnicalMission, whose job it was at the con-clusion of the war to scour all of Eu-rope for every shred of industrial andscientific material that had been pro-duced by the Third Reich. It was be-cause of this report that the U.S. Navybecame interested in mescaline andother drugs as a tool for interrogation.The Navy initiated Project Chatter in1947, the same year the Central Intelli-gence Agency was formed. ProjectChatter’s program included developingmethods for getting information frompeople against their will, but withoutinflicting harm or pain.

MK-ULTRA and LSDAt the end of the war, the OSS was

designated as the investigative unit forthe International Military Tribunal,which was to become known as theNuremberg Trials. The purpose of Nu-remberg was to try the principal Nazileaders and officers. Some Nazis wereon trial for their experiments, and theU.S. was using its own “truth drugs” onthese Nazi prisoners, namely Goring,Ribbentrop, Speer and eight others.

The Justice in charge of the tribunalhad given the OSS permission to usethe drugs. As a result, valuable informa-tion on methods to control human be-ings were obtained. Most of therecords detailing the Nazi mind controlsecrets have never been publicly re-leased. However, evidence over thefollowing years suggests that these se-cret mind control methods have beenused and perfected by various military,

intelligence and government opera-tions.

In 1977, a Senate subcommittee onHealth and Scientific Research, chairedby Senator Ted Kennedy, focused onthe CIA’s testing of LSD on unwittingcitizens. Only a mere handful of peoplewithin the CIA knew about the scopeand details of the program. The Ken-nedy subcommittee learned about theCIA Operation MK-ULTRA through thetestimony of Dr. Sidney Gottlieb.

The purpose of the program, ac-cording to his testimony, was to “inves-tigate whether and how it was possibleto modify an individual’s behavior bycovert means.” Claiming the protectionof the National Security Act, Dr. Gott-lieb was unwilling to tell the Senatesubcommittee what had been learnedby these experiments.

He did state, however, that the pro-gram was initially started by a concernthat the Soviets and other enemies ofthe United States would get ahead ofthe U.S. in this field. Through theFreedom of Information Act, re-searchers were able to obtain docu-ments detailing the MK-ULTRA pro-gram and other CIA behaviormodification projects.

In 1953, CIA director Allen Dulles,speaking before a national meeting ofPrinceton alumni, distinguished twofronts in the then-current “battle formen’s minds.” A “first front” of mass in-doctrination through censorship andpropaganda, and a “second front” of in-dividual “brainwashing” and “brainchanging.” The same year, at CIAdeputy director Richard Helm’s sugges-tion, Dulles approved the MK-ULTRAproject, and exempted it from normalCIA financial controls.

BrainwashingOver the years it has been under-

stood that a powerful tool for inducingideological and behavioral change is so-cial pressure in a controlled environ-ment. To establish a “cover story” forcontinuing this research, the CIAfunded a propaganda effort designed to

convince theworld that the

Communist Blochad devised insid-

ious new methodsof reshaping thehuman will, the

CIA’s own effortscould therefore, if

exposed, be ex-plained as an at-tempt to “catchup” with the So-viets work. The

primary promoterof this “line” was

one EdwardHunter, a CIA con-tract employee op-

erating undercover as a journalist, and,later, a prominent member of the JohnBirch society.

Hunter offered “brainwashing” asthe explanation for the many confes-sions signed by American prisoners ofwar during the Korean War and (gener-ally) recanted upon the prisoners’ repa-triation. These confessions alleged thatthe United States used germ warfare inthe Korean conflict, a claim which theAmerican public of the time found im-possible to accept.

Many years later investigative re-porters discovered that Japan’s germwarfare specialists had been broughtinto the American national security ap-paratus, and that the knowledgegleaned from Japan’s horrifying germwarfare experiments probably wasused in Korea, just as the “brain-washed” soldiers had said.

The conclusion is that the entirebrainwashing scare of the 1950s consti-tuted a CIA hoax perpetrated upon theAmerican public. CIA deputy directorRichard Helms admitted as muchwhen, in 1963, he told the WarrenCommission that Soviet mind controlresearch consistently lagged years be-hind American efforts. Yet this simpleprogram was enough to crank up thebrainwashing scare in the UnitedStates, designed to give the CIA the po-litical space needed to research moresophisticated mind-control techniques.

The Introduction of LSDThe most daring phase of the MK-

ULTRA program involved slipping un-witting American citizens LSD in var-ious situations. The idea for the seriesof experiments had in fact predatedMK-ULTRA, originating in November1941. At that time the OSS had in-vested $5000 for research for a work-able “truth drug” program. Experi-ments with scopolamine and morphineproved both unfruitful and very dan-gerous. Many test subjects died afterbeing treated with the powerful nar-cotics.

The program tested scores of otherdrugs, including mescaline, barbitu-rates, Benzedrine, and cannabis toname a few. The U.S. was highly con-cerned over the heavy losses offreighters and other ships in the NorthAtlantic, all victims of German U-boats.Information about German U-boatstrategy was desperately needed and itwas believed that the informationcould be obtained through drug-influenced interrogations of Germannaval POWs, in violation of the GenevaAccords. The Central IntelligenceAgency held two major interests in useof LSD to alter normal behavior pat-terns. The first interest centeredaround obtaining informationfrom prisoners of war andenemy agents. The second wasto learn the effectiveness ofdrugs used against theenemy on the battlefield.

The MK-ULTRA pro-gram was originally run bya small number of peoplewithin the CIA known asthe Technical ServicesStaff (TSS). Another CIAdepartment, the Office ofSecurity, also began itsown testing program.Friction arose andthen infightingbroke out whenthe Office of Se-curity commencedto spy on TSSpeople after it waslearned that LSDwas being tested onunwitting Americans.Not only did the twobranches disagree over the issueof testing the drug on the unsus-pecting victims, they also disagreedover the issue of how the drug was ac-tually to be used by the CIA.

The office of Security envisionedthe drug as an interrogation weapon.However, the TSS group thought thedrug could be used to help destabilizeanother country. LSD could be slippedinto the food or beverage of a publicofficial in order to make him behavefoolishly or oddly in public. One CIAdocument revealed that LSD could beadministered right before an officialwas to make a public speech. The doc-ument then listed several differentmethods that had been secretly testedon public officials both in the UnitedStates and abroad. The tests were allconsidered successful.

Realizing that gaining informationabout the drug in real-life situationswas crucial to exploiting the drug to itsfullest, TSS started conducting experi-ments on its own people. There wasan extensive amount of self-experimentation. The Office of Se-

curity felt the TSS group was playingwith fire, especially when it waslearned that TSS was preparing tospike the CIA’s annual office Christmasparty punch with LSD. LSD can pro-duce serious disorientation for periodsof eight to 18 hours and possiblylonger, and several people at the partybecame extremely ill. One threw him-self out from his tenth-story hotelroom. Afterwards, the CIA was orderedto cease all drug testing.

Even though the CIA openly haltedtheir drug experiments, scientistsworking for the agency secretly con-tinued. One researcher, Dr. EwenCameron, working at McGill University

in Montreal, used a variety of ex-perimental techniques, in-

cluding using drugs to keepsubjects unconscious formonths at a time, admin-

istering huge electroshocks and continualdoses of LSD.

Massive lawsuitsdeveloped as a re-sult, and many ofthe subjects who

suffered traumahad never agreed

to participate.Such CIA experi-ments infringedupon the much-

honored Nurem-berg Code concerning

medical ethics. Ironi-cally, Dr. Cameron was a

member of the NurembergTribunal.

In 1963, CIA InspectorGeneral John Earman criticizedRichard Helms, the father of the

MK-ULTRA project. Earman chargedthat the new director, John McCone,had not been fully briefed on the pro-ject when he took office and that “theconcepts involved in manipulatinghuman behavior are found by manypeople within and outside the agencyto be distasteful and unethical.” Hesaid that “the rights and interests ofU.S. citizens are placed in jeopardy.”

The Inspector General stated thatLSD had been tested on individuals atall social levels, high and low, nativeAmerican and foreign. Earman’s criti-cisms were rebuffed by Helms, whowarned, “Positive operation capacityto use drugs is diminishing owing to alack of realistic testing. Tests were nec-essary to keep up with the Soviets.”

For example, he wouldstimulate one spot and the person’sarm would move, another spot andthey would suddenly smell lemon. Pen-field conducted volumes of experi-ments showing how various experi-ences were located in different areas ofthe brain. Although hefound that the contentof consciousness de-pends in large measureon neuronal activity inthe brain, this activity“always occurred withinthe dominating and en-veloping radiance of anautonomous mind.” Hisresearch failed to showwhere the mind residedin the brain. Later in hiscareer he went so far asto say that although allhis experiments werebuilt on the principlethat the brain generatesthe mind, they in factproved exactly the oppo-site.

Dr. Les Fehmi, a psy-chologist and neurofeed-back researcher fromPrinceton, is also stud-ying the value of subjec-tive experience as wellas what we know aboutthe physical mechanismsin the brain. He pro-motes an open focus‚state of awareness signi-fied by synchronousalpha frequencies in the brain. He firstexperienced these alpha frequenciesfor himself when he tried and failed.“At the moment of surrender I experi-enced a deep and profound feeling ofdisappointment. Fortunately, I surren-dered while still connected to my EEGand while still receiving feedback. Itwas surprising to observe that I nowproduced five times the amount ofalpha than before the act of surren-dering.” After learning how to open hisfocus and create the alpha waves, he“felt more open, lighter, freer, moreenergetic and spontaneous. A broaderperspective ensued which allowed meto experience a more whole and subtleunderstanding. As the letting go un-folded, I felt more intimate with sen-sory experience, more intuitive...”

Fehmi found that imagining spacewas one of the ways to force the brain

This graphopen fo

to stop grasping and move into openfocus. The state is experienced as “avast three-dimensional space, nothing-ness, absence, silence and timeless-ness. The scope of our attention is notonly expanded, but is experiencedwith greater immersion. Thus, theground of our experience is reified, re-alized as a more pronounced sense ofpresence, a centered and unifiedawareness, an identity with a vastquality less awareness in which all ob-jects of sensation float, as myself.” Thissounds surprisingly similar to the medi-tators‚ reports when they quieted the

orientation area in their brains. Youcan get a taste of open focus now, ifyou wish. As you read, become awareof the space in between the letters onthe page while you are attending to thewords and the meanings of the words.Can you also be aware of the space be-tween you and the paper? At the sametime, is it also possible to be aware ofsounds around you? Let all of that staywith you as you attend to the words,and the meanings of the words youread.

Fehmi believes that the way we payattention is important. If someone is al-ways in narrow objective focus theywill start to experience stress, regard-less of the content of their attention.(see graph) Fehmi was chronically innarrow focus; that is why he experi-enced such a profound breakthrough.He finally gave up‚ and went into the

open focus state. Consideration of oursociety’s chronic narrow focus mayhelp us to explain our society’s ram-pant drug use and fascination withmeditation and ecstatic spiritual states.These methods help us alleviate thetension of remaining chronicallynarrow focused in our consensustrance.

The relief that comes with alteringour attention and our consciousness ismore than just feeling good. Fehmi’sopen focus, hypnotic trances and otherecstatic states have been shown tobring about the remission of many

stress-related symptoms,chronic pain, insomnia,even eye and skin disor-ders. People who have

been the most narrow fo-cused may experience the

most profound results.With practice most people

can experience lastingchanges.

Though many of thesechanges are subjective and

hard to measure, somestudies are showing howour attention may physi-

cally change the brain.Susan Greenfield has

shown how the hippo-campus in London taxi

drivers were enlarged pro-portionately to the length

of their employment—possibly related to their re-

membering abilities. Shealso noted a similar study

where just practicing five-finger piano exercises for

five days enhanced thearea of the brain relating

to the digits. More remark-able is that just imaginingthe movements creates a

comparable change in thebrain, a measurable phys-

ical change.Since we can demonstrate that

imagination does change the structurein the brain, then it becomes more be-lievable that an altered state can gen-erate other paranormal phenomena.The ability to control pain and resistburning that firewalkers and hypno-tized people display may be a natural,though seldom used, potential of themind-body connection. Parapsycholo-gists Russel Targ and Jane Katra saythat the interconnectedness demon-strated in quantum physics is the expla-nation for psychic abilities like remoteviewing and distant healing. Our abilityto control our brains and minds puts usin touch with the experience and phe-nomena of no separation. This is essen-tially the same thing the mystics havebeen reporting for thousands of years,that the separation between mind and

body, between ourselves and others,even the phenomena of space andtime, are illusions. Fehmi’s attentiontraining along with meditation andother consciousness-altering practicesmay be more psychologically and phys-iologically powerful than we’ve be-lieved. Targ and Katra say, “The choiceof where we put our attention is ulti-mately our most powerful freedom.Our choice of attitude and focus af-fects not only our own perceptionsand experiences, but also the experi-ences and behaviors of others.”

If you’ve been using your attentionto alter your awareness while readingthis article, you may have a sense howeasy it is to shift your consciousness.Your experience may seem totally un-like the possession trance of a fire-walker or a shaman, but it is related.It’s only a matter of degree. If you canfully appreciate the value of thesemilder controlled states, you may bemore open to the value of states morealien to you, more altered. Those moreextreme states have been used for mil-lennia by indigenous shamans andhealers to fulfill valid personal and so-cial needs. Even scientists like Edisonand Einstein used their ability to slipinto natural trance states for creativebreakthrough. Einstein even said someof his formulae were not derived fromresearch or calculation, but from “psy-chical entities as more or less clear im-ages.”

Many meditators, hypnotic patients,and open focus practitioners who usethese ASCs report they feel more incontrol of their lives. Their direct expe-riences from these states gives them aflexibility that loosens the hold con-sensus trance has on their minds. Acentury ago William James said, “themystical feeling of enlargement, unionand emancipation has no specific intel-lectual content whatsoever of itsown... We have no right, therefore, toinvoke its prestige as distinctly in favorof any special belief.” The work ofthese brain and mind researchers ishelping us to understand withoutneeding to believe; both the physiolog-ical and the psychological knowledgewe possess has value. It is freeing to re-alize that we need not be believers orskeptics but can explore our states ofconsciousness with a more flexible andclearer mind. We may even enjoy andeven be surprised at what we find.

did pay homage to Inti, the deity of thephysical sun, and built very elaborateceremonial centers of finely cut stone,overlaid with sheets of gold and en-crusted with various gem stones, e.g.,emeralds.

We have studied these buildings.And, when you read the historicalrecords, and study the legends and pre-historical oral accounts, one realizesthat these buildings must have beenvery beautiful, indeed, when reverencewas being given to Inti.

As to the higher religion, whereinworship was given to the supreme God

above the material world, very little isknown. But then, our study of the ideo-grams, glyphs and inscriptions is al-lowing us to accumulate a largeamount of evidence to show the relig-ious rituals were not as primitive or bar-baric as some would have us believe.

After all, archaeologists, as a rule,with their digs, stratigraphic maps andscientific analysis, are not so concernedand/or familiar with the oral traditions,historical records and religious prac-tices of the peoples who built thesecenters. We have a different under-standing based upon decades of fieldresearch and familiarity with history, ar-chival sources, comparative religion,and the like.

At the present time we are not pre-pared to elaborate on the religion ofthese Pre-Columbian people, as thiswill be the subject of a forthcomingbook. Undoubtedly, the religious prac-tices of the priesthoods were secretmuch like the Essenes of Palestine (au-thors of the Dead Sea Scrolls), who didnot make their rites, practices and be-liefs public. The same could be said of

the Therapeutae of Alexandria, Egypt,who were studied by the Jewish histo-rian Philo. Many of the documentshave disappeared, and it is difficult toreclaim the oral teachings, which diedwith the extinction of the Orders.

A.R. Which discovery brought youthe most excitement and which themost satisfaction?

G.S. The discovery that gave me themost excitement was my very first ex-pedition into the deep rain forests inVilcabamba in 1964-65, which resultedin the location of the refuge city of Vil-cabamba. The last Inca Manco II used itas a base in his struggles against theSpanish conqueror, Francisco Pizarro.Hiram Bingham thought that MachuPicchu was the city of refuge but that

has been provennot to be the

case. You can

gather more in-formation on mydiscovery in mybook, Antisuyo,on the Chapter

dealing with theVilcabamba ex-

peditions. It wasmost satisfyingto me becausethe legendary

city had escapeddetection for

some four hun-dred years. It

was in the Vilca-bamba wilds that

I gained my ini-tial experience

in jungle explo-rations that culminated in my successduring the Chachapoyas expeditions(see El Dorado Expeditions, Antisuyo).The findings there were extremely ex-citing and most satisfying, but again,the first city was thrilling because of itsplace in Inca history. The ChachapoyasEl Dorado expeditions were equally sat-isfying because the numerous sitesbrought to light over many yearsturned legend into historical fact, for itwas not assumed that any Pre-Columbian civilizations occupied therain forests in such strength.

A.R. What has kept you going allthese years? And how would you likeyour work to be remembered?

G.S. Sheer determination and persis-tence, coupled with the joy of dis-covery. I hope that I may be remem-bered as a pioneer explorer of the rainforest, who made discoveries of placesno one else cared to look, for cities re-ported on pages of history longthought to be myth, but in reality onceexisted. It is my desire that others willpick up the torch and carry on thework. Exploration is not dead on this➛

earth. Especially in the some three mil-lion square miles of rainforest outthere waiting to be explored.

A.R. What is your current focus?G.S. While I have retired from ar-

chaeological and historical explora-tions, both on land and sea, I want todevote the remainder of my life tochronicling my explorations and toshare my research with the generalpublic via books and transcripts. I amat present writing this material. I alsoplan to lecture and I am sharing mywork with selected specialists for laterpublication. In addition, I want to dedi-cate most of my time to my religiousvocation and to write on philosophy,metaphysics, epistemology and on-tology specializing on new-agethinking. Before I forget, my aim is toencourage members of the Andean Ex-plorers Foundation and their relatedYoung Explorers Society (Young Ex-plorers International) to carry on thework. I am placing my maps and re-search in their hands.

The BBC news reported on Savoy’smost recent discoveries in Peru inJune, 2000: “The explorer and his teamof archaeologists believe they have un-covered the city of Cajamarquilla—oneof the lost cities of the Chachapoyaspeople who moved to eastern Peru in700 A.D….The American explorer has,during more than 40 years of workingin the region, found several other set-tlements including the city of Gran Vi-laya—a complex of 20,000 (oval-shaped) stone buildings that he be-lieves was the capital of the Chacha-poyas empire.” (BBC News June 4,2000)

Gene Savoy is a true explorer,meaning that he is motivated by a de-sire to understand history rather thanto find and ransack ‘lost cities’ for theirstored valuables. He refused to disclosethe location of Cajamarquilla for fearthat thieves would plunder the site. Hehas published four books about his ex-plorations and been the subject of sev-eral documentaries aired on ABC, CBSand the BBC.

In addition to his explorations andwritings he is also a cleric and the truegoal of his research and expeditions isthe discovery, or recovery, of evidencethat a universal religion that encom-passed all aspects of human life onceexisted.

chored broadside to Fort McHenry.At 7 a.m. on Sept. 13, and contin-

uing for 25 hours with just one several-hour break, British warships bom-barded the fort. Key’s lyrics, however,tell us that the bombs were “burstingin air” before reaching their targets.The fuses had been inexplicably set tooshort to go the distance. But the lightof the bombs and “the rockets’ redglare” did manage to give “proofthrough the night that our flag was stillthere!”

It was quite a show, and a relativelycheap one. Only four Americans areknown to have died during the bom-bardment.

But there was a much bigger showgoing on above—one that would outlivethe tale we are told today.

At 3:41 a.m., the “morning star”Venus rose above the eastern horizonmidway between the forelegs of Leo,just minutes before the rising of Reg-ulus, a significant star in Masonic tradi-tion. If the night had been dark, clear,and eventless, they would have made apretty pair. But it was raining, the airwas full of smoke, and all eyes weretrained on the light show below.

Mercury rose at 5:16, as Leo stood“rampant” on the horizon in a stancewell-reminiscent of the flag carried atBannockburn—the flag Scots still flytoday—followed quickly by the warplanet Mars. Even if the bombardmenthad not been the main focus of atten-tion, these events would have alreadyfaded in the light of the approachingdawn.

Just twenty minutes later, giant Ju-piter would rise behind the Sun fol-lowed shortly by the Moon.

To Earth’s east, if we include theSun and Moon, six denizens of oursolar system lay within just 30 degreesof sky—all but one of those lying withinseven degrees—a surprisingly rare align-ment.

The planet Pluto surprised memore.

Pluto is the outermost planet in oursolar system—so far out that it takes ap-proximately 249 Earth years to orbitthe sun. Not “discovered” until 1930,many years after the Siege of FortMcHenry, Pluto takes a very long timeto get from one side of the solar systemto the other—and yet there it was, duewest of the Earth, but part of the samealignment.

But the biggest surprise was theplanet Neptune, not “discovered” until1846, with an orbit time of 165 years.When a line was drawn between Nep-tune and Pluto, and another drawn be-tween Neptune and the midpoint of

SUBSCRIBE OR

Pluto’s easternmost orbit, a compasswas formed. When another line con-nected the two endpoints, a pyramidwas formed. And when a line wasdrawn between Neptune and the Sun,everything weirdly doubled. Astrolo-gers call this particular configuration a“T-square,” and I am told it usually por-tends events of a sinister nature. Butmore about astrology later.

As reported, the bombardment hadceased at dusk on Sept. 13, and had re-sumed at 1 a.m., when the first beltstar of Orion broke the horizon. Some3,000 miles to the East, dawn wasbreaking in the sky above Bannock-burn, and Leo stood defiantly on theScottish horizon as the bombs againbegan to “burst in air” above FortMcHenry.

It was a long and noisy night, butthe Brits eventually set sail at dawn,leaving the grand finale to the Ameri-cans. Meanwhile, in the skies east ofBannockburn, Hercules slew SerpensAquaticus, the many-headed water ser-pent. How’s that for synchronicity?

The Battle of Baltimore was foughton many fronts, indeed!

It is a common misconception, notcorrected in most history books, thatthe immense 30 x 42-foot FortMcHenry flag, presently undergoingrestoration in Washington D.C.’s Smith-sonian Institutions, was the flag thatwas flown throughout the bombard-ment. It was not.

Fort McHenry commander MajorGeorge Armistead had ordered twoflags to be made, and had required thatone of them should be large enoughthat “the British would have no troubleseeing it from a distance.” It was thesmaller flag that was flown during thebombardment. It was the larger flag,hoisted at dawn, which inspired Key’ssong.

What else about the flag, and thecontinuing mystery of the bombard-ment itself, might warrant a closerlook? Here’s the short list:

Might I suggestthat this element sym-bolizes the ever-enigmatic Masoniccompass? It is alsohighly provocative thatthe letter “B” is almostinvisibly embroidered near the top ofthat compass, perhaps to commemo-rate Bannockburn.

• The Francis Scott Key Bridgespans the Potomac River from Wash-ington, D.C., to Rosslyn, Virginia, per-haps another quiet symbol of the se-cret transatlantic arrangement made somany years ago.

• The very name “Scott Key” reso-nates with the suggestion that one keyto unlocking this great mystery will befound in Scotland.

While I have described the astro-nomical arrangement of the skiesabove Fort McHenry and Bannock-burn, and have tipped my hat to theancient mythological connections, Ihave paid only brief lip-service to as-trological considerations because as-trology is not a field I have studiedenough to feel comfortable with. As-tronomy and astrology were once vir-tually inseparable disciplines—but nottoday. While astronomy has acquired agloss of scientific “respectability,” as-trology has not fared so well.

I have nevertheless asked RabWilkie and Ed Kohout, both knowl-edgeable in the understudied field of“Masonic Astrology,” to weigh in withtheir thoughts on my theories in “100-words-or-less.” Stingy, I know! Theyhave so far weighed in with thousands,and deserve a forum larger than this ar-ticle can provide to properly present

their views in ways thatdo them justice. I thank

them both for helpingme adjust the accompa-

nying “HeliocentricView” graphic into

something the averagereader can visually com-

prehend. They havealso enthusiasticallyconvinced me that

what each of us hasseen so far is “just the

tip of a rather large ice-berg.”

These are interestingtimes, indeed!

Some final considera-tions about the subject

at hand:Consider that the

most famous song in-spired by the Battle of

Bannockburn was “Scots Wha Hae,”written by Scots bard and FreemasonRobert Burns. Consider that FreemasonFrancis Scott Key wrote “The Star-Spangled Banner” during the War of1812. Consider that Freemason JohnPhilip Sousa’s last performance was toconduct his “Stars & Stripes Forever” in1932. And finally consider the possi-bility that a small yet influential clan-destine brotherhood may have beenmarching in secret to its own drumsince 1314, if not earlier.

Considering all those things, onemight well wonder what FreemasonGeorge M. Cohan had in mind when hepenned the last few lines of “You’re AGrand Old Flag,” using a phrase fromthe Robert Burns megahit “Auld LangSyne.” Could Cohan have written thoselines for brothers “with ears to hear?”Italics mine.

Every heart beats true ’neath the Red,White and Blue,Where there’s never a boast or brag.But should auld acquaintance beforgot,Keep your eye on that grand old flag!

Like religion, flags have always hadthe uncanny ability to keep largegroups of people united, ready to fightfor any common cause at the drop of ahat. Unfortunately, flags and religionhave also been found useful in keepingeven larger groups of people apart and,for the most part, that’s why the greatChess game called War has neverlacked for pawns.

But who plays the game, and whoare the pieces?

chose to call back his fleet and isolatethe entire Eastern culture. Had that notbeen the case, we might be learningChinese!”

A product of the post-Holocaust,Vietnam era, Gelb was interested inpolitics, but found that “both sides ofthe political spectrum were func-tioning on automatic.” He turned tothe nature of mind and “how we couldlearn to think more creatively, intelli-gently and constructively.” Since bothFreud and Jung attended Clark Univer-sity in Massachusetts, Gelb enrolledthere, finishing the curriculum in threeyears. His fourth year of college was ina residential learning community inEngland. Sponsored by J.G. Bennett, alinguist and mathematical genius, TheInternational Academy for ContinuousEducation allowed Gelb to immersehimself in the world’s wisdom tradi-tions. It was also there that he was in-troduced to the Alexander Technique,which he found to be the perfect ve-hicle to bridge the gap between “en-lightenment on the mountaintop” andparticipation in the marketplace. “I’dthought of going to medical school,but I really don’t like disease; I’dthought of getting my Ph.D. in ClinicalPsychology, but I don’t particularly likeinsanity,” he laughs. While studying theAlexander Technique for three years inLondon, Gelb wrote a Masters’ Thesisfor Goddard College, which becameBody Learning, his first book, subse-quently translated into eleven lan-guages.

As a result of the book’s success,Gelb was invited to speak at a five-daymanagement retreat for a multinationalcomputer company in Switzerland. Hispresentation included meditation, theAlexander Technique, Mind Mapping,juggling and running. Traveling aroundthe world presenting managementworkshops provided him an opportu-nity to experience “the marketplace”amidst differing cultures. In 1982, hemoved from London to Washington,D.C., with the “idealistic notion” thathe could make a contribution in theplace where thinking skills were mostneeded. “I wanted to be a Trojan Horseand get into the walls of the corporateworld. If we’re going to improve so-ciety, it’s going to come through cor-porations,” states Gelb with confi-dence. “It’s not a question of whethercapitalism is the way, it’s a question ofwhether we can make it benevolent,intelligent, long-term thinking capi-talism. Corporations are the modernMedici, which sponsored the Renais-sance. It’s what we have to influencenow if we want to improve the world➛

situation.” Weighing his words carefully

(there is a palpable wait betweenthem), Gelb allows hearty laughter topepper his conversation, as he ex-plains that he takes life in appreciativegulps, while taking his life’s missionvery seriously. That mission has beeninfluenced by Michio Kaku’s (author ofVisions and host of a correspondingPBS special) work in Unified FieldTheory. Though it sounds like thelatest computer sci-fi game, Kaku saysthat top scientific thinking considersthe vastness of the universe to containnot only other forms of life, but otherforms of consciousness, or civiliza-tions. The lowest level of life (“the cat-egory we’re in,” guf-faws Gelb) or “LevelOne” is achievedwhen you’velearned as a plane-tary civilization tocontrol the weather,to feed all yourpeople and to eradi-cate war. “Kaku’sthinking is that weare about 100 yearsaway fromachieving that goal,if we don’t destroyourselves first,” saysGelb. “So, my mis-sion is now: “Tohelp the planet getto ‘Level One’.”

Gelb, who sayshe can’t read the Declaration of Inde-pendence without being moved totears, says that relativisim can becomean excuse for not thinking. He pointsout that Werner Heisenberg (whose fa-mous “Uncertainty Principle” contrib-uted to modern relativity theory) saidthat when he retired, he wanted tomeditate on the great questions posedby Plato: What is Truth, what isBeauty, what is Goodness? “Today, eve-ryone thinks of this in terms of rela-tivity, as if there couldn’t be an abso-lute standard. Most disciplines supportthe idea of relative values, yet I thinkwe can agree to assign a value to some-thing and hold it sacred. As an Amer-ican, you assign a value to Freedom, toEqual Rights. There’s a Darwinianstruggle going on now. What do youstand for? I think people are standingup to the fact that they could bewilling to die for freedom.” Lookingout over an expanse that used to in-clude the Twin Towers, Gelb muses;“If that doesn’t tell you somethingabout the reliability of the materialworld and the importance of the Spirit,what does? On the other hand, I’m alsolooking at the Statue of Liberty andthat inspires not only the external free-doms we all treasure, but the idea of

72 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 33

internal freedom.” Told by a teacher (as was Albert

Einstein) that he would never amountto anything, Gelb concentrates many ofhis efforts on encouraging people tothink creatively as well as logically. Hisfather taught him to play chess whenhe was 10 or 11, which set the stagefor his eventual meeting with GrandMaster chess champion, RaymondKeene; the resulting discussions be-tween them became a collaboration onthe book, Samurai Chess—MasteringStrategy through the Martial Art of theMind. Gelb, whose personal heroes in-clude Aikido founder Morehei Ueshiba,F.M. Alexander, Lao Tsu, Rumi, SaintFrancis of Assisi, and Wilhelm Reich,

enjoys playing chessagainst his computer

as well as aikido,daily yoga and Pi-

lates workouts,shopping for food,

cooking, listening tomusic and dancing.Eschewing a formalcorporate structure

for his own organiza-tion, Gelb has a per-

sonal assistant andcontracts friendly as-

sociates to “workand play in some of

the most beautifulplaces on earth,

while enjoying someof the best food andwine in the world.”

Sounds like something Thomas Jef-ferson would enthusiastically support!

Jefferson’s enjoyment of food,friends and fine wines was matched byhis love for books; the Library of Con-gress was once comprised primarily ofbooks he donated from his personal li-brary of 10,000 titles. Reading and “life-time learning” may be the key tohealthy aging. Gelb notes that aMoscow University professor estimatesthe number of possible connectionsthe human brain can make as “thenumber one followed by 6.5 millionmiles of the smallest typewrittenzeros!” Gelb’s “Mind Mapping” tech-niques attempt to key us in to some ofthat nearly infinite capacity, summedup in a catchy turn on Descartes’ fa-mous phrase: “I Link, Therefore I Am.”And, of course, there are geniuses toemulate. Dr. Jean Houston notes thatwe’re in a unique position: “For thefirst time in human history,” she states,“the genius of the human race is avail-able for all to harvest.” And as Gelbpoints out, “As you apply the wisdomof history’s great minds, you’ll improveyour mental abilities as you get older.”And while you’re at it, get out thechessboard. It’s your move.

nearly a how-to book, giving experi-menters possible guidelines for tappinginto zero-point energy to make usefuldevices. King comes from both aca-demia and practical engineering, and isnow senior scientist for Paraclete Cor-poration in Utah. He has done thePh.D. courses in Systems Engineeringand has a long track record of studyingthe experiments of many of the energypioneers. King challenges inventors togive the world free information.

King’s afterword deals with whyzero-point energy devices aren’t on thestore shelves yet. “Most career scien-tists, engineers and professors refuse toresearch the field since it violates theruling paradigm.” The few indepen-dent inventors King met who had it to-gether—not only achieved enough ex-cessive power to make their devicesself-running but also had the businesscapability to proceed to manufacturingthe devices—were suppressed. Kingdoesn’t claim to know who is behindthe suppression.

Is humankind ready for the energyabundance that zero-point energycould theoretically unleash? We arenot, King concludes. “One possible so-lution is that the discovery be kept se-cret and controlled by a central au-thority, like atomic power. Until wegrow up spiritually we would not havecomplete freedom for energy use.”

A more hopeful solution King seesis the consciousness movement—humankind waking up to see we areconnected, part of a greater spiritualbeing. He has experienced so manysynchronicities that he knows we arebeing guided. And he sees the quest forzero-point energy as possibly broad-ening into a consciousness transforma-tion at the planetary level.

King’s book aims to inspire scien-tists and inventors. A fourth new bookcould be a textbook for even non-technical students and planners whowant to avoid an oil-blackened or radio-active future:

Alternative Energy Institute (www.altenergy.org) publishes an attractiveinternet-linked book, billed as aroadmap to the coming energy revolu-tion. Turning the Corner: Energy Solu-tions for the 21st Century, by MITearth sciences graduate John Riley andcultural geographer/History Channelconsultant Mark McLaughlin, could beused as a solution-oriented textbookfor students, or a source of informationfor those making energy-related deci-sions for society. In a profusely illus-trated 385 pages, the coming energycrisis gets 90 pages, renewable ener-gies 70, and The Energy Revolution:

ASTROLOGY

Technologies on the Horizon spans100 pages that include cold fusion,zero-point energy and electrogravitics.Wisely, the book’s cover is conserva-tive enough to appeal to a mainstreamenvironmentalist and the back coveravoids using the phrase zero-point en-ergy, although on it Sir Arthur C.Clarke praises the book for coveringthe “more speculative forms of en-ergy”. He adds, “I do hope some ofthem arrive in time!”

Turning the Corner says that to ad-vance to life-beyond-the-oil-patch re-quires both a panoply of new alterna-tive energy systems and strong publicdemand for clean and green power.This transition won’t be easy or quick,AIT’s book says, butthe well-being of fu-ture generationsrelies on decisionswe act on today.

Even if the publicdoes demand devel-opment of cleanabundant-energytechnologies, in theshort term an energycrunch looks inevi-table. Tom Valone ofIntegrity Research In-stitute (integrityre-searchinstitute.org)gives us a look at thatcrunch. He is writinga doctoral thesis bookabout zero point en-ergy.

Valone reminded me that the U.S.National Energy Strategy calls for addi-tional hundreds of thousands of mega-watts of electrical power capacity, atleast eight big oil refineries, more than250,000 miles of gas pipelines and aninterstate national electric grid. Thatwish list was pre-September 11. Sincethen, the war dramatically ratchetedup the need for energy independence.The national strategy calls for 1,900new power plants in the next 20 years,but so far few of the needed plants arebeing built.

Frustrated members of the energyand engineering communities met inWashington D.C. recently to discussbarriers to improving the energy infra-structure. The nonprofit United StatesEnergy Association (USEA) co-sponsored the briefing. The energysector wants injections of trillions ofdollars, and even then no one wants apower plant in their neighborhood. InNew York City today, companies can’tget a permanent permit for a new site,period. Discouraged, industry groupsconclude “energy is a product that isvilified.”

Outsiders offer a different perspec-tive—people just want a cleaner choiceof energy source. But the National En-

SEE OUR GREAT 8-PAGE CATALOG SECTION

ergy Strategy points backwards to fossilfuels and nuclear, and the U.S. regula-tory system doesn’t reward companieswho improve energy efficiency.

Why don’t solar, geothermal, bio-mass and wind power come to therescue? One answer is that most renew-able energies can’t compete with thelow two-cents-per-kilowatt/hour whole-sale price of electricity, a consultanttold Valone at the briefing.

In conversations with other engi-neers and the speakers, Valone injecteda note of hope about decentralized fu-ture energy possibilities that don’t needbillion-dollar investments and won’tpollute. But even when he mentionedready-to-go approaches such as Dr. Paul

Brown’s photoreme-diation for disposing

of nuclear wastes andfor energy produc-

tion, Valone’s effortswere met with looks

of disbelief and“Where’s the proto-

type operating?” Un-derstandably, no one

was ready to be thepioneer. Industry de-

cision-makers want tosee a completed full-scale project, fundedby someone else, be-

fore buying.Apparently the

wisdom of a terrorist-vulnerable national

energy grid, andhealth effects from 5,000-megawatttransmission lines aren’t loudly ques-tioned throughout the energy sector.Everyone has too many pressing-problem “alligators” to kill before theyget around to draining the energy-dependency swamp and developingsmall decentralized power plants.

What about greenhouse-effectgases? Margo Thorning, chief econo-mist for the American Council for Cap-ital Formation, told the meeting thatwe don’t have the technology to re-duce power plants’ carbon dioxideemissions by seven per cent by the year2012, and taxing their more noxiousemissions won’t happen.

The industry has its euphemismssuch as “externality taxes” and “exter-nality costs” for oil dependency. Ablunt person might use plainer words—“the costs in human health and sol-diers’ lives, and the dollar costs of oilwars.”

Perhaps the efforts of Cook, Tutt,King, McLaughlin, Riley, Valone andother authors will help raise publicawareness of the alternatives.

The authors of Hamlet’s Mill ob-served that “Magic material withstandschange, just because of its resistance tothe erosion of common sense.” Ratherthan integrating and synthesizing“modern” knowledge with traditionalways of knowing, we have discardedearlier truths as primitive or invalid.

The familiar planets of our solarsystem bear names which have comedown to us from Greek and Romanmyth. It’s a testimony to the power ofnaming that the manner in whichplanets are interpreted in modern as-trology still carries the archetypal sig-nificance bestowed on their heavenlycounterparts thousands of years ago.

The planets orbit (except Pluto) theSun in a flat plane of space roughlyfourteen degrees of arc thick. From ourperspective on Earth the Sun appearsto move through the sky on an annualtrek. The apparent path of the Sun iscalled the Ecliptic. This area of space isdivided into twelve by the constella-tions of the zodiac. This twelve-roomedmansion where the sky gods interact islikely to be Mount Olympus.

There were twelve Olympians; sixmales and six females. The Olympianscorrespond in part to the planets ofour solar system and to the archetypesof astrology. There are some excep-tions. Uranus and Cronus (Saturn) wereTitans who fathered and grand fatheredtheir Olympian offspring. Hades (Pluto)was a member of the group by lineage,but did not reside in Olympus, ratherruling his underworld domain. Themythical stories showed how the ar-chetypal pantheon of energies com-bined in love and war.

Mythologically Ceres, (Demeter) is agrain and fertility goddess and repre-sents the great Earth Mother in bothher nurturing and withholding aspects.Pallas Athene (Minerva) is the arche-typal daughter and goddess of wisdomwho sprang from the head of her fatherZeus. Vesta (Hestia) hold the archetypeof virgin and sister, symbolizing femi-ninity complete within herself. Juno(Hera), represents the sacred marriage,and indicates the balanced union of thefeminine and masculine principles.

These goddesses, representing fouraspects of the feminine experience,round out the missing spaces in thehalls of Olympus. Increasingly these as-teroids are used by modern astrologersto enrich interpretation and insight. Ifthe correct birth time is known the as-teroid goddesses can be placed in thebirth chart for expanded under-standing.

could be shocked into releasing a huge, radiant, electro-static burst. This energy spike was produced by his cir-cuitry and captured in a special device Mr. Gray called his“conversion element switcing tube.” Nikola Tesla actuallydiscovered this same effect, back in 1889. With the infor-mation in this book, you will learn what it took Tesla,Gray and others decades to figure out. Using articles, pat-ents, diagrams, and photographs, Dr. Lindemann unravelsthe mystery until the whole method is fully revealed. Nowyou can do it, too! This is the information free energy en-thusiasts have been waiting for.

TEMPEST AND EXODUS (Sequel to “Jesus—Lastof the Pharoahs”) Ralph Ellis—Describes the dra-matic discovery of large biblical quotation on an ancientEgyptian stele. When compared to the biblical equivalentthe text appears to be two separate accounts, from both theEgyptian and the Israelite perspective, of a conference inEgypt discussing the way in which the biblical exodusshould be organized. The quotation thus has fundamentalimplications for both history and theology because it ex-plains why the Tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenantwere constructed, why the biblical exodus started, whereMt.

These threevideos, or book, representthe culmination of threedecades of work by FreeEnergy Researcher, Dr.Peter Lindemann. He ex-plains the method thatEdwin Gray, Sr. used toproduce what he called“cold electricity.” Evenmore remarkable, hefound that Nikola Teslaactually discovered thissame effect back in 1889.In 1958 Mr. Gray discov-ered that the discharge ofa high voltage capacitorcould be shocked into re-leasing a huge, radiant,electrostatic burst. Thisenergy spike was pro-duced and captured in a special device Mr. Gray called his“conversion element switching tube.” The non-shocking,cold form of energy that came out of this “conversiontube” powered all of his demonstrations, appliances, andmotors, as well as recharged his batteries. Mr. Gray re-ferred to this process as “splitting the positive.” Withthese videos, or book, you can now understand what ittook Tesla, Gray and others decades to figure out. Usingarticles, patents, diagrams, and photographs, Dr. Linde-mann pieces the information together until the wholemethod is fully revealed.
