... and the distant calls of high-flying seahawks lend a timeless quality to the hushed green land. At the northern edge of town is visible evidence of an ancient civilization, now largely lost to history, that once prospered here. Ahu Tahai is typical of more than 100 similar ahus - ceremonial temple platforms - on the island, characterized by the strange great stone figures which seem to stare eternally into the distance. More than 600 of the figures, called moai had been carved from the rock of a single volcano and transported to all corners of the island. Tourists have looked, wondered, and imagined strange and alien sources for these figures including the ever present visitors from outer space ...
122. Fireballs North of Bangkok [Journals] [Aeon]
... scientific interest. Attempted explanations, however, have varied. No one seems to know what they really are or why they act, or react, the way they do. A series of incidents that took place in a village north of Bangkok back in October of 1996 did nothing to dispel the mystery. For one thing, it seems strange that such occurrences always seem to favor remote localities. Not that there weren't any witnesses. On the contrary, the events were observed by hundreds of residents. Not only was that a fair-sized audience, it was also a participating one. A local administrative officer was sure that the reported occurrences involved nothing more than pranks played by mischievous ...
123. Velikovsky's Sources Volume Five [Books]
... 5.Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. 6. Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them. 7, Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children; 8. Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood," Now it seems quite clear to me that what we have here is not a catastrophic documentary but an impassioned tirade against human vanity which uses the bowed heavens and smoking mountains and so forth simply for dramatic effect. They are ...
124. The Revelation of John (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... the New Testament dazzle us by their extreme wealth of imagery. Many persons have expounded the creation myth in Genesis; the end of the evil old Earth and the rise of a glorious new one, in Revelation, cannot boast one staunch champion to date. It has been regarded as religious fiction, as belonging to a large class of strange literature called apocalyptic, with the chief difference that it represents a rounded-off whole while most of the other examples are fragmentary and scattered. The word apocalypse' means revelation', but what exactly was to be revealed has remained hidden. The religious truths which it doubtless contains, and which so many eminent divines have undertaken to find and ...
125. Night of the Gods: The Pillar [Books]
... for the summit of the more southerly of two eminences inside the town. At Salkhat De Vogue found a square stele dedicated to al-Lat.57 We have here of course also the Alitta of Herodotus (i , 131). See also Mylitta. Allat is called the Lady of the Spear in the Babylonian records.58 This is a strange and unlooked-for confirmation of my theories, as it brings together the lat and the spear, both of which are here taken to be axis-symbols. Saragossa can still boast of the famous Our Lady of the Pilar. " If any one wished to select one feature of Indian Architecture which would illustrate its rise and progress, as well as ...
126. Transcript of the Morning Session of the A.A.A.S. Symposium [Articles]
... , actually, from all ancient calendars, from Inca and from Mayas, from Peru- which [Mayas] means in Mexico- from all ancient European, like ancient Roman and Greek, and also Asian, Near Eastern, and Far Eastern civilization. From each of them I put quotes from authority: twelve months of thirty days, strange as it is, without intercalary. Intercalary months were brought later in. And so later there were two Moon's calendars, Moon calendar of thirty days, and the new Moon calendar. Well, in these circumstances, I come to the conclusion that Ammizaduga tablets were created between the time of the catastrophic events of the middle second millennium ...
127. Planetary Observations of the T'ang [Articles]
... great thunder and lightning. 1100 people die. Also, thereafter, the sea divides the isle of Fith into 3 parts. (the year may be 801 or 803). 799- Hovedon reports that many ships were wrecked at sea this year. It is obvious that the history of this entire period is sketchy. However, some strange phenomena do occur. PLANETARY OBSERVATIONS FROM SOURCES OUTSIDE OF THE T'ANG There are 15 of these observations; 9 of them are Islamic. Anomalies do appear amongst them. To whit: 1. 682, month 8, day 3. In the annals of Japan, the Nihongi, a body that a gloss identifies with Venus appears at ...
128. From the Death of Moses to the Death of Eli [Books]
... to posterity, and a sign of their relation to those that should inhabit on the other side. But when those on the other side heard that those who had been dismissed had built an altar, but did not hear with what intention they built it, but supposed it to be by way of innovation, and for the introduction of strange gods, they did not incline to disbelieve it; but thinking this defamatory report, as if it were built for divine worship, was credible, they appeared in arms, as though they would avenge themselves on those that built the altar; and they were about to pass over the river, and to punish them for their subversion ...
129. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... that the pulsar is not actually rotating but vibrating. At least this idea will be testable over the next few months. The other attempt at explanation makes one wonder how astronomers get away with flights of fancy which other disciplines would consign to the lunatic fringe. It is suggested that Supernova 1987A is not after all a neutron star but a strange' star, strange matter' having been invented' by a theorist. Theory apparently extends to strange' quarks as well as the normal up and down quarks. Strange indeed! Comet orbits calculated sources: Nature 339, p. 95 and New Scientist 2.9 .89, p. 29 Calculations of the dust left behind ...
130. Holocaust for Lucifer [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Infos. 1 to 5, concerning the confirmation by Pioneer Venus results). Doesn't it go without saying that just this all-embracing analysis of our past must lead to the answers to the challenge raised by HOLOCAUST? The more so as the ideologies of philosophy, religion and science, normally ready to provide information about anything, have now become strangely silent and seem embarrassed and found out; this is hardly surprising, for these very doctrines were unmasked by the analysis as neurotic delusions under the cover of such historical truth - because it is unrecognised and repressed out of fear - conjures up, as a compulsion neurosis, irrational collective behaviour. "Blood is offered here, Not of ...
