These were people who functioned 53 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,228 sort of as liaisons between the mortal world and the immortal 54 00:03:46,230 --> 00:03:49,498 world, between the gods and the humans. 55 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,433 They have a message, which is a 56 00:03:51,435 --> 00:03:54,236 communication from God, but what's very interesting about 57 00:03:54,238 --> 00:03:57,373 that, it's not just a message. The presence of God is felt to 58 00:03:57,375 --> 00:03:59,475 be in the words of the prophet himself. 59 00:03:59,477 --> 00:04:02,177 So, the one who hears a prophet actually is encountering the 60 00:04:02,179 --> 00:04:04,580 presence of God, and not just a message from God. 61 00:04:05,482 --> 00:04:07,383 So, if you have a prophet who is an authority 62 00:04:07,385 --> 00:04:10,352 figure in your community, and he says, this god is upset about 63 00:04:10,354 --> 00:04:17,191 this, you need to do X, Y, or Z to placate this god or goddess, you did it. 64 00:04:18,593 --> 00:04:19,528 But was the source 65 00:04:19,530 --> 00:04:23,764 of these prophetic messages truly of a divine nature? 66 00:04:25,003 --> 00:04:26,303 According to ancient astronaut 67 00:04:26,304 --> 00:04:30,239 theorists, there is, perhaps, another possible explanation as 68 00:04:30,241 --> 00:04:34,577 to who or what may have been contacting 69 00:04:34,578 --> 00:04:36,878 these prophets of the ancient past. 70 00:04:38,179 --> 00:04:39,114 What we're beginning 71 00:04:39,116 --> 00:04:42,618 to realize is that this is not religious, but that these are 72 00:04:42,620 --> 00:04:46,589 people who have had anomalous experiences with entities, and 73 00:04:46,591 --> 00:04:50,426 that this is contact with a nonhuman intelligence. 74 00:04:51,128 --> 00:04:54,597 Prophets and prophecies are evidence that 75 00:04:54,599 --> 00:04:59,201 these higher beings are instructing us to help create 76 00:04:59,203 --> 00:05:05,441 civilization, for us to move forward, and even to give us 77 00:05:05,443 --> 00:05:08,878 some warning of the future. This is what's going to happen. 78 00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:11,979 You need to get ready. 79 00:05:14,580 --> 00:05:17,984 Is it really possible that extraterrestrial beings 80 00:05:17,986 --> 00:05:20,654 made contact with the ancient prophets? 81 00:05:22,356 --> 00:05:23,592 Perhaps the answers can be found 82 00:05:23,594 --> 00:05:28,063 by looking further into the story of Moses, as written more 83 00:05:28,065 --> 00:05:32,267 than 3,000 years ago, and chronicled in the Hebrew 84 00:05:32,269 --> 00:05:35,239 Testament's Book of Exodus. 85 00:05:36,540 --> 00:05:39,440 Moses's first encounter with God occurs 86 00:05:39,441 --> 00:05:43,511 in the, uh... in the third chapter of the book of Exodus. 87 00:05:43,613 --> 00:05:45,581 Moses encounters a burning bush, 88 00:05:45,583 --> 00:05:48,050 and God speaks to him out of this burning bush. 89 00:05:48,052 --> 00:05:51,053 And Moses was given a mission. And the mission is to liberate 90 00:05:51,055 --> 00:05:53,490 the Hebrews indentured in Egypt. 91 00:05:54,191 --> 00:05:58,391 The idea of the burning bush is very interesting to me, 92 00:05:58,397 --> 00:06:04,366 because things like burning bushes really don't exist, especially if they 93 00:06:04,368 --> 00:06:07,338 all of a sudden give instructions. 94 00:06:08,439 --> 00:06:13,039 So we have to ask ourselves, what did our ancestors describe? 95 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:16,845 And so, the burning bush idea 96 00:06:16,847 --> 00:06:21,417 could have have been a technological creation, which 97 00:06:21,419 --> 00:06:26,221 Moses described as a burning bush. 98 00:06:26,823 --> 00:06:29,591 Might the burning bush, as described by Moses, 99 00:06:29,593 --> 00:06:33,429 really have been an extraterrestrial device? 100 00:06:33,431 --> 00:06:40,332 A machine? Or perhaps, even a type of spacecraft? 101 00:06:41,434 --> 00:06:44,438 If so, then with whom, or with what, 102 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,309 was Moses really communicating? 103 00:06:47,611 --> 00:06:51,346 Perhaps more clues can be found in the story of another, 104 00:06:51,348 --> 00:06:54,921 equally mysterious, close encounter. 105 00:06:56,522 --> 00:06:59,222 Tell el-Daba, Egypt. 106 00:06:59,223 --> 00:07:02,925 Some scholars and researchers believe that it was here, 107 00:07:02,927 --> 00:07:07,362 in the northeastern region of the Nile Delta, where the Israelites 108 00:07:07,364 --> 00:07:11,166 began their exodus, and where Moses had his second divine 109 00:07:11,168 --> 00:07:16,938 encounter... this time with an incredible object in the sky. 110 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,810 They were met partway toward their destination 111 00:07:21,812 --> 00:07:26,181 by what I would call a biblical UFO. 112 00:07:26,183 --> 00:07:32,053 In Exodus, Chapter 13, verses 21 and 22, it says, "The Lord went 113 00:07:32,055 --> 00:07:35,223 before them by day in a pillar "of cloud... and by night in a 114 00:07:35,225 --> 00:07:37,726 pillar of fire." "...the pillar did not depart 115 00:07:37,728 --> 00:07:42,396 from before the people..." Meaning that it was always there. 116 00:07:42,598 --> 00:07:43,832 Well, what the Bible 117 00:07:43,834 --> 00:07:46,835 tells us is that it is the presence of God manifesting 118 00:07:46,837 --> 00:07:50,205 himself in a dramatic way, accompanying the Israelites. 119 00:07:51,107 --> 00:07:52,974 The question has always been asked, "Well, what 120 00:07:52,976 --> 00:07:55,744 was that cloud of fire?" What is it? 121 00:07:55,746 --> 00:07:58,079 Is it God? Or, as the ancient alien theory 122 00:07:58,081 --> 00:08:02,984 suggests, it could have been some type of a craft, a beacon 123 00:08:02,986 --> 00:08:04,387 that they had to follow. 124 00:08:04,788 --> 00:08:06,488 The Hebrew people... 125 00:08:06,489 --> 00:08:08,923 they were following the object, and it makes it very 126 00:08:08,925 --> 00:08:13,061 clear that whenever the object was on the ground, the people 127 00:08:13,063 --> 00:08:16,664 stopped and camped. When it was taken up, they broke 128 00:08:16,666 --> 00:08:20,935 camp, and they moved forward. The object was leading them. 129 00:08:21,837 --> 00:08:24,471 And the description of a pillar of cloud and of fire... 130 00:08:24,673 --> 00:08:28,640 A pillar is cylindrical in shape, and perhaps quite hard or solid. 131 00:08:29,746 --> 00:08:32,947 This is very similar to UFOs that are reported now. 132 00:08:32,949 --> 00:08:35,517 The flying saucer types are more famous, but the 133 00:08:35,519 --> 00:08:39,653 cylindrical-shaped UFOs are very common, and they can be very large. 134 00:08:39,655 --> 00:08:42,023 Up to a half-mile in length, perhaps. 135 00:08:43,225 --> 00:08:45,126 Some students of UFOs think 136 00:08:45,128 --> 00:08:50,098 these are mother ships, and the fact that it's a cloud by day 137 00:08:50,100 --> 00:08:53,868 suggests, as in modern UFOs, that there's some type of halo 138 00:08:53,870 --> 00:08:56,373 effect around the UFO. 139 00:08:57,174 --> 00:08:59,374 If we look at it in that context, 140 00:08:59,375 --> 00:09:01,109 perhaps the ancients would have described 141 00:09:01,111 --> 00:09:05,780 a gleaming UFO in the day as a cloud, a bright cloud, and they 142 00:09:05,782 --> 00:09:11,484 would have described a brightly lit UFO at night as a fiery pillar. 143 00:09:11,855 --> 00:09:15,523 Was this strange pillar of fire and cloud really 144 00:09:15,525 --> 00:09:19,994 a physical manifestation of God? Or was it an advanced 145 00:09:19,996 --> 00:09:24,699 technological device of an otherworldly origin? 146 00:09:24,701 --> 00:09:28,937 As far as ancient astronaut theories are concerned, further 147 00:09:28,939 --> 00:09:32,907 clues may lie in the story of Moses' final divine encounter on 148 00:09:32,909 --> 00:09:35,545 the summit of Mount Sinai. 149 00:09:36,146 --> 00:09:38,046 Moses receives a message 150 00:09:38,047 --> 00:09:42,785 from God that he is going to land on Mount Sinai. 151 00:09:43,687 --> 00:09:46,721 So he gathers the nation of Israel around the mountain. 152 00:09:46,723 --> 00:09:51,793 This huge, bright glowing cloud lands on Mount Sinai. 153 00:09:52,495 --> 00:09:54,062 And it's quite spectacular because 154 00:09:54,064 --> 00:09:57,532 it's surrounded by all sorts of preternatural phenomenon, 155 00:09:57,534 --> 00:10:00,101 of the sounds of trumpets and clouds and fire. 156 00:10:00,103 --> 00:10:03,538 And the Jewish people are told to stay at the 157 00:10:03,540 --> 00:10:08,543 bottom of Mount Sinai, but Moses is authorized, and you might 158 00:10:08,545 --> 00:10:12,113 even say protected, by the pillar of cloud and the fire, 159 00:10:12,115 --> 00:10:16,718 so that he can go up there and everybody else can't. 160 00:10:17,420 --> 00:10:20,488 According to the biblical texts, Moses ascends 161 00:10:20,490 --> 00:10:24,058 the mountain and enters the glowing cloud. 162 00:10:24,060 --> 00:10:27,829 There he communes with the almighty God... the creator of 163 00:10:27,831 --> 00:10:33,835 the universe... and after 40 days he returns, carrying the Ten 164 00:10:33,837 --> 00:10:37,572 Commandments. But for ancient astronaut 165 00:10:37,574 --> 00:10:41,643 theorists, the story of what happened on Mount Sinai may, 166 00:10:41,645 --> 00:10:47,580 in fact, offer compelling evidence of a very different type of encounter. 167 00:10:48,182 --> 00:10:49,684 Moses going up with 168 00:10:49,686 --> 00:10:52,487 God, being gone for 40 days, it sounds very much like the 169 00:10:52,489 --> 00:10:56,691 contactee experience today, where contactees are given rules 170 00:10:56,693 --> 00:11:01,129 and regulations and ideas to follow, you know, in terms of 171 00:11:01,131 --> 00:11:04,166 elevating the human race. 172 00:11:04,167 --> 00:11:05,967 The commandments that are given 173 00:11:05,968 --> 00:11:09,003 go against our very animal nature, 174 00:11:09,005 --> 00:11:14,008 because, to some extent, what the Bible says is that God would will to give 175 00:11:14,010 --> 00:11:18,146 divine power to humans if we could handle it. 176 00:11:18,148 --> 00:11:20,881 But the problem is, we don't have the ethics to handle it. 177 00:11:20,883 --> 00:11:22,517 Thou shalt not kill. 178 00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:25,954 Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. 179 00:11:25,956 --> 00:11:31,193 The Ten Commandments are a start toward handling divine power. 180 00:11:31,795 --> 00:11:36,497 And the prophets were picked to be the spokespersons for the 181 00:11:36,499 --> 00:11:41,502 powers that were trying to rule the world through rules and 182 00:11:41,504 --> 00:11:45,173 regulations, commandments that would bring about moral 183 00:11:45,175 --> 00:11:50,479 obedience, which is superior to following our animal instincts. 184 00:11:51,681 --> 00:11:54,682 Is it possible that Moses' encounter on Mount Sinai 185 00:11:54,684 --> 00:11:58,953 was not with the almighty God but with some sort of 186 00:11:58,955 --> 00:12:02,824 extraterrestrial messenger? 187 00:12:02,826 --> 00:12:07,696 One that deliberately sought to guide and govern human behavior? 188 00:12:08,798 --> 00:12:12,600 Ancient astronaut theorists say that such a profound and 189 00:12:12,602 --> 00:12:16,904 controversial notion is possible, and claim additional 190 00:12:16,906 --> 00:12:20,608 evidence can be found in the story of yet another Old 191 00:12:20,610 --> 00:12:24,712 Testament prophet, one who delivered ominous warnings of 192 00:12:24,714 --> 00:12:30,451 the future... and described unearthly beings that descended 193 00:12:30,453 --> 00:12:33,054 from the heavens. 194 00:12:37,074 --> 00:12:38,626 Northern Israel. 195 00:12:40,627 --> 00:12:42,927 According to Bible texts, it was here, 196 00:12:42,928 --> 00:12:46,997 in the ninth century BC, that the prophet Elijah 197 00:12:46,999 --> 00:12:51,634 reportedly had several encounters with both angels and God... 198 00:12:51,936 --> 00:12:55,906 during which he was given prophetic warnings of drought 199 00:12:55,908 --> 00:12:57,575 and cataclysm. 200 00:12:58,177 --> 00:13:02,145 One of the most important prophets in Israelite 201 00:13:02,147 --> 00:13:04,217 tradition, of course, is Elijah. 202 00:13:05,619 --> 00:13:07,821 Elijah predicts some rough things coming... 203 00:13:08,422 --> 00:13:10,122 and, of course, they do. 204 00:13:11,323 --> 00:13:14,424 He warns of a drought that's going to 205 00:13:14,426 --> 00:13:20,264 devastate Israel and cause all this starvation. 206 00:13:20,266 --> 00:13:26,403 He also is interesting because he was never known to have died. 207 00:13:26,405 --> 00:13:29,506 And it's thought that, in some ways, yeah, he was taken into 208 00:13:29,508 --> 00:13:32,779 space and lives for eternity. 209 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,180 In Elijah's final encounter with God, 210 00:13:37,181 --> 00:13:40,183 written in the Second Book of Kings, 211 00:13:40,185 --> 00:13:44,421 the prophet "goes up by a whirlwind" into Heaven 212 00:13:44,423 --> 00:13:49,458 by what's described in the Hebrew Bible as a fiery horse-drawn chariot. 213 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,794 There's a story in Kings about Elijah, 214 00:13:52,796 --> 00:13:55,332 who reported seeing this strange aerial 215 00:13:55,334 --> 00:13:58,902 phenomena that was described variously as sort of bright, 216 00:13:58,904 --> 00:14:03,307 whirlwind-like, cloud lit up, clearly some sort 217 00:14:03,309 --> 00:14:04,610 of object in the sky. 218 00:14:05,211 --> 00:14:09,911 Elijah's experience details a spinning object 219 00:14:10,212 --> 00:14:14,683 or a spinning beam that took him up into the object. 220 00:14:15,789 --> 00:14:17,589 We see a whirlwind that came 221 00:14:17,590 --> 00:14:21,491 over him a a chariot of fire. So the question is: Was it the 222 00:14:21,493 --> 00:14:26,029 chariot of fire that was spinning, or was it a beam that 223 00:14:26,031 --> 00:14:28,568 came down and took him up? 224 00:14:30,169 --> 00:14:31,269 For the faithful, 225 00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:36,205 this extraordinary event is believed to be a religious miracle. 226 00:14:37,507 --> 00:14:42,109 But could Elijah have been chosen by heavenly beings to fulfill 227 00:14:42,111 --> 00:14:47,147 an otherworldly purpose, as ancient astronaut theorists contend? 228 00:14:47,419 --> 00:14:49,820 The one thing that many people don't realize is 229 00:14:49,822 --> 00:14:53,924 that the first story we can read about Elijah doesn't talk about 230 00:14:53,926 --> 00:14:58,929 that he was taken up there with horses, but just by that fiery 231 00:14:58,931 --> 00:15:05,135 chariot that initially was described like a fiery furnace. 232 00:15:05,137 --> 00:15:06,872 Now, what's a fiery furnace? 233 00:15:07,173 --> 00:15:10,273 Could the fire have been some sort of engine? 234 00:15:10,274 --> 00:15:11,874 When he's taken up in a whirlwind, 235 00:15:11,876 --> 00:15:14,011 you know, you only have to look at, for example, 236 00:15:14,013 --> 00:15:16,581 when the space shuttle takes to the sky. 237 00:15:18,183 --> 00:15:21,918 You know, you have this rumbling, roaring jet flames, 238 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,821 et cetera, et cetera. If you look at it in that 239 00:15:24,823 --> 00:15:28,627 context, you could really place this into a UFO category. 240 00:15:30,129 --> 00:15:33,497 When you look at Elijah, there's a nuts-and-bolts 241 00:15:33,499 --> 00:15:39,871 craft there... a fiery chariot... and they get inside it. 242 00:15:40,873 --> 00:15:44,341 They meet these beings, which are luminous beings 243 00:15:44,343 --> 00:15:46,578 that talk to them, instruct them. 244 00:15:46,979 --> 00:15:50,579 It's important to realize that the biblical religion 245 00:15:50,580 --> 00:15:52,214 is an extraterrestrial religion, 246 00:15:52,216 --> 00:15:54,418 meaning that God is not from Earth. 247 00:15:54,420 --> 00:15:56,787 We learn this in the Lord's Prayer. 248 00:15:56,789 --> 00:15:59,322 "Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name. 249 00:15:59,324 --> 00:16:01,425 "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done: 250 00:16:01,427 --> 00:16:04,061 on Earth as it is in Heaven." 251 00:16:04,263 --> 00:16:08,331 Extraterrestrial help is sent to Earth to help humanity in the 252 00:16:08,333 --> 00:16:10,602 quest to do God's will. 253 00:16:11,503 --> 00:16:12,503 Was Elijah really 254 00:16:12,504 --> 00:16:16,840 a man chosen by otherworldly beings to help them steer the 255 00:16:16,842 --> 00:16:21,311 course of humanity? And if so, might this help 256 00:16:21,313 --> 00:16:25,549 explain other, even more incredible, Biblical encounters 257 00:16:25,551 --> 00:16:30,053 between God and mankind? 258 00:16:30,755 --> 00:16:34,558 Manchester, New York.

And so the source of the Book of Mormon... 276 00:17:44,894 --> 00:17:46,698 is extraterrestrial. 277 00:17:47,900 --> 00:17:50,333 Smith actually describes several different 278 00:17:50,335 --> 00:17:54,737 cases where he appears to be with this extraterrestrial Moroni. 279 00:17:54,739 --> 00:17:56,072 We really have to wonder if 280 00:17:56,074 --> 00:17:59,776 these aren't just mythological explanations or physical events 281 00:17:59,778 --> 00:18:01,347 that actually took place. 282 00:18:03,548 --> 00:18:07,148 Joseph Smith is interesting because he meets mythical beings. 283 00:18:07,219 --> 00:18:11,087 The story of Smith is to some extent unique, in the sense that 284 00:18:11,089 --> 00:18:15,191 obviously a religion was created based on what he encountered. 285 00:18:16,393 --> 00:18:17,527 However which way you want to look at this, 286 00:18:17,529 --> 00:18:20,997 whether it's a flesh-and-blood alien or an actual angel, 287 00:18:20,999 --> 00:18:24,400 they're both extraterrestrials, so there's no question about that. 288 00:18:24,802 --> 00:18:32,038 They misunderstood those visits as being angelic in nature, 289 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:37,377 when in reality they were visited by physical space travelers. 290 00:18:37,979 --> 00:18:40,515 Is it possible that the angel Moroni 291 00:18:40,517 --> 00:18:43,887 who instructed Joseph Smith Jr. was, in fact, 292 00:18:43,889 --> 00:18:46,526 an otherworldly being? 293 00:18:47,627 --> 00:18:51,727 And if so, could the Book of Mormon really be evidence 294 00:18:51,728 --> 00:18:56,696 that these beings have shared celestial information with mankind? 295 00:19:03,702 --> 00:19:07,911 Lumbini, Nepal. The fourth century BC. 296 00:19:08,113 --> 00:19:12,449 It was during this period that the Jataka tales... ancient 297 00:19:12,451 --> 00:19:16,219 Buddhist poems and prose... were written. 298 00:19:16,221 --> 00:19:20,156 These incredible writings document the supernatural birth 299 00:19:20,158 --> 00:19:24,828 and life of the Supreme Buddha, a spiritual leader upon whose 300 00:19:24,830 --> 00:19:28,231 teachings the Buddhist religion was founded. 301 00:19:29,433 --> 00:19:31,868 The Buddha's mother is Queen Maya, and it is 302 00:19:31,870 --> 00:19:37,673 believed that she had a dream one night that a white elephant 303 00:19:37,675 --> 00:19:43,578 entered her womb, thus she was conceived and the Buddha was born. 304 00:19:45,484 --> 00:19:51,420 The Buddha is supposed to have reached enlightenment after 305 00:19:51,622 --> 00:19:54,725 meditating for a long time under a tree. 306 00:19:55,027 --> 00:19:58,830 The enlightenment is called "nirvana." 307 00:20:00,532 --> 00:20:04,200 According to some ancient astronaut researchers, 308 00:20:04,202 --> 00:20:07,404 before Buddha began laying the foundation for one of the 309 00:20:07,406 --> 00:20:11,141 world's great religions, he was psychically imprinted with 310 00:20:11,143 --> 00:20:14,978 telepathic messages by otherworldly beings. 311 00:20:14,980 --> 00:20:18,248 In Buddhism, there's an interesting story of 312 00:20:18,250 --> 00:20:23,353 Buddha meeting with what are called the "devas," or these 313 00:20:23,355 --> 00:20:26,091 special luminous spirits. 314 00:20:27,692 --> 00:20:31,692 Devas are like superhuman beings, like superheroes. 315 00:20:32,893 --> 00:20:34,497 They can fly, they live longer, 316 00:20:34,499 --> 00:20:38,502 they are stronger, they are much taller than humans. 317 00:20:39,504 --> 00:20:42,505 They also have craft that help them fly. 318 00:20:42,607 --> 00:20:44,640 You have to wonder who these devas are. 319 00:20:44,642 --> 00:20:48,311 In many ways they're very much like extraterrestrials. 320 00:20:48,313 --> 00:20:50,613 Buddha actually writes about this state and 321 00:20:50,615 --> 00:20:53,850 calls it "par-nirvana," and basically says that this is also 322 00:20:53,852 --> 00:20:57,320 the link with the immortals. And other traditions basically 323 00:20:57,322 --> 00:21:01,224 say that this is when contact with the gods is made. 324 00:21:01,226 --> 00:21:04,293 Many religious figures have had some type of 325 00:21:04,295 --> 00:21:08,264 out-of-body experience. Buddha himself described being 326 00:21:08,266 --> 00:21:10,867 able to access multiple dimensions, interacting with 327 00:21:10,869 --> 00:21:14,337 different beings. There could be other dimensions, 328 00:21:14,339 --> 00:21:18,807 other realities in parallel with us that contain extraterrestrials. 329 00:21:19,912 --> 00:21:26,383 Do the strange accounts of Elijah, Joseph Smith Jr. and Buddha 330 00:21:26,485 --> 00:21:29,519 really prove divine beings have been influencing 331 00:21:29,521 --> 00:21:32,325 mankind for thousands of years? 332 00:21:33,626 --> 00:21:36,526 And if so, do the words of these prophets, 333 00:21:36,527 --> 00:21:40,329 when looked at together, reveal a master plan 334 00:21:40,331 --> 00:21:41,901 for the human species? 335 00:21:43,402 --> 00:21:47,002 Ancient astronaut theorists believe that even more clues 336 00:21:47,003 --> 00:21:51,638 may be found in the centuries-old accounts of prophets and holy men 337 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,709 who lived long before the Bible was conceived. 338 00:22:02,213 --> 00:22:03,821 Persepolis, Iran. 339 00:22:05,722 --> 00:22:09,522 Here, 30 miles northeast of the city of Shiraz, 340 00:22:09,523 --> 00:22:12,393 lay the ruins of an ancient capital. 341 00:22:13,995 --> 00:22:17,897 Built by the Persian conqueror Darius more than 2,000 years ago, 342 00:22:17,899 --> 00:22:23,970 Persepolis was once a mighty city that legend says was 343 00:22:23,972 --> 00:22:29,809 protected by a powerful god named Ahuru Mazda. 344 00:22:29,811 --> 00:22:33,980 And etched in stone atop the crumbling remains of a building 345 00:22:33,982 --> 00:22:39,185 called the "Tripylon" is a depiction of this ancient god, 346 00:22:39,187 --> 00:22:46,826 seated inside a winged disk. Ahuru Mazda was central to the 347 00:22:46,828 --> 00:22:49,898 ancient Persian religion Zoroastrianism... 348 00:22:50,900 --> 00:22:54,669 and the experiences of a prophet named Zarathustra 349 00:22:54,871 --> 00:22:57,271 who lived 2,600 years ago. 350 00:22:58,673 --> 00:23:02,141 Zarathustra was the founder of a religion... 351 00:23:02,143 --> 00:23:06,079 he was in the area near Persia, of modern-day Persia or Iran... 352 00:23:06,081 --> 00:23:10,850 and he had a visitor, Ahuru Mazda, a divine encounter that 353 00:23:10,852 --> 00:23:16,823 led to the major form of monotheism in the entire area. 354 00:23:16,825 --> 00:23:21,728 It preceded the Egyptian form of monotheism and way beyond the 355 00:23:21,730 --> 00:23:23,366 Hebrew and then Christian forms. 356 00:23:25,468 --> 00:23:29,571 According to ancient Zoroastrian texts called the Avesta, 357 00:23:29,573 --> 00:23:35,408 Zarathustra's first meeting with Ahuru Mazda occurred at the top 358 00:23:35,410 --> 00:23:40,512 of a mountain that was shrouded in clouds and bathed in an eerie light. 359 00:23:41,414 --> 00:23:42,882 Zarathustra carries 360 00:23:42,884 --> 00:23:46,619 this idea that there is this one true god, it is literally 361 00:23:46,621 --> 00:23:50,056 the god of truth, and truth is a great central principle in the 362 00:23:50,058 --> 00:23:54,227 Zoroastrian worldview. Right and wrong, good and evil, 363 00:23:54,229 --> 00:23:57,630 black and white... a very strong contrast, and you are to 364 00:23:57,632 --> 00:24:00,134 identify with the good and search the truth. 365 00:24:01,136 --> 00:24:04,737 Some researchers believe these divine prophecies 366 00:24:04,739 --> 00:24:08,808 provide proof that the prophet Zarathustra was following 367 00:24:08,810 --> 00:24:12,879 commands from an extraterrestrial being, one who 368 00:24:12,881 --> 00:24:18,183 perhaps came to Earth to sow the seeds of what is now known as civilization. 369 00:24:21,691 --> 00:24:26,592 When we look at Zarathustra encountering Ahura Mazda, what we are 370 00:24:26,594 --> 00:24:29,762 confronted with here are human beings who are 371 00:24:29,764 --> 00:24:32,666 encountering nonhuman intelligences. 372 00:24:33,068 --> 00:24:37,236 These are indicative of physical encounters. 373 00:24:37,238 --> 00:24:40,106 These are encounters with something which is 374 00:24:40,108 --> 00:24:42,178 otherworldly yet physical. 375 00:24:43,380 --> 00:24:46,515 We have to ask ourselves: 376 00:24:46,516 --> 00:24:49,116 Were they just a figment of our ancestors' 377 00:24:49,117 --> 00:24:52,353 imagination, or did they exist? 378 00:24:53,755 --> 00:24:56,689 These are extraterrestrial, or alien, 379 00:24:56,691 --> 00:24:59,759 entities who come here and provide some kind of 380 00:24:59,761 --> 00:25:02,729 information exchange and guidance program between 381 00:25:02,731 --> 00:25:07,668 cultures and entities who are willing to help that culture. 382 00:25:08,870 --> 00:25:12,105 Is it possible, as ancient astronaut theorists 383 00:25:12,107 --> 00:25:16,075 believe, that extraterrestrials contacted prophets in the 384 00:25:16,077 --> 00:25:19,312 distant past in order to guide the development 385 00:25:19,314 --> 00:25:24,550 of human civilization? And if so, might there be more 386 00:25:24,552 --> 00:25:28,554 clues found in the historical accounts of what is perhaps the 387 00:25:28,556 --> 00:25:34,026 most intriguing character in all of ancient Greece? 388 00:25:34,028 --> 00:25:38,831 Mount Parnassus. On the flanks of this 8,000-foot 389 00:25:38,833 --> 00:25:43,903 peak lie the ruins of a marble sanctuary that was once home to 390 00:25:43,905 --> 00:25:48,107 one of history's most famous prophets, a temple priestess 391 00:25:48,109 --> 00:25:51,446 known as the Oracle of Delphi. 392 00:25:52,548 --> 00:25:56,282 The Oracle of Delphi is the most famous oracle from the ancient world. 393 00:25:56,284 --> 00:25:59,585 There was a temple there dedicated to the god Apollo. 394 00:25:59,587 --> 00:26:02,889 Apollo is the central god for prophecy. 395 00:26:02,891 --> 00:26:06,726 And a temple was established for Apollo in Delphi, and that 396 00:26:06,728 --> 00:26:11,231 became the seat of the actual oracle where people would visit. 397 00:26:11,833 --> 00:26:15,234 The Oracle of Delphi was located in the Temple 398 00:26:15,236 --> 00:26:20,273 of Apollo, which would have been, at the time, the major 399 00:26:20,275 --> 00:26:24,777 building structure. This was the central point. 400 00:26:24,779 --> 00:26:30,950 So the oracle was all-important. Everything else was there 401 00:26:30,952 --> 00:26:35,655 because of the oracle in the complex. 402 00:26:35,657 --> 00:26:38,925 Also known as Pythia, the oracle could be 403 00:26:38,927 --> 00:26:42,762 found sitting on a tall, three-legged seat over an 404 00:26:42,764 --> 00:26:46,766 opening in the earth, where vapors rising from the ground 405 00:26:46,768 --> 00:26:49,305 would put her into a trance. 406 00:26:50,907 --> 00:26:56,976 The Oracle of Delphi would basically channel the god Apollo. 407 00:26:56,978 --> 00:27:00,746 Apollo was really the god of civilization. 408 00:27:00,748 --> 00:27:03,717 He was the god of light. He was the god of prophecy. 409 00:27:04,919 --> 00:27:07,120 And she would become Apollo. 410 00:27:07,822 --> 00:27:11,057 You can imagine how it is when something supernatural 411 00:27:11,059 --> 00:27:14,861 or superhuman comes into a human body. 412 00:27:15,163 --> 00:27:18,064 It, of course, creates a fugue state, essentially. 413 00:27:18,066 --> 00:27:21,200 It creates a weird trance. Nowadays we have movies about 414 00:27:21,202 --> 00:27:24,604 possessions and stuff like that. It's kind of like that. 415 00:27:24,606 --> 00:27:28,641 It's not necessarily demonic. But any time the supernatural 416 00:27:28,643 --> 00:27:31,911 becomes housed within something natural like a human body, it is 417 00:27:31,913 --> 00:27:35,248 inevitably going to be causing some kind of trance, some kind 418 00:27:35,250 --> 00:27:37,152 of fugue state or something. 419 00:27:38,354 --> 00:27:40,689 For more than a thousand years, 420 00:27:40,690 --> 00:27:43,190 the oracle and her numerous successors 421 00:27:43,191 --> 00:27:47,793 dispensed advice to everyone from emperors and generals 422 00:27:47,795 --> 00:27:49,931 to poets and politicians. 423 00:27:50,832 --> 00:27:51,832 Prophecy was central 424 00:27:51,833 --> 00:27:55,835 to the Greek worldview, and the affairs of state, the planning 425 00:27:55,837 --> 00:27:59,939 of battles, any important decisions, would be taken to the 426 00:27:59,941 --> 00:28:04,010 oracle to be considered, to get some kind of guidance from 427 00:28:04,012 --> 00:28:06,114 beyond ordinary knowing. 428 00:28:07,415 --> 00:28:10,615 You can come and ask about giving birth to a child. 429 00:28:10,616 --> 00:28:14,218 You can come and ask about crops that you want to plant. 430 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,721 You can come and ask about joining the army. 431 00:28:16,723 --> 00:28:21,024 You can come and ask about undertaking a military expedition. 432 00:28:21,162 --> 00:28:23,262 The priestess is there to be the liaison. 433 00:28:23,264 --> 00:28:26,165 And in fact, when people come to the oracle and ask questions, 434 00:28:26,167 --> 00:28:29,769 they specifically ask the priestess, and she's the one who 435 00:28:29,771 --> 00:28:34,808 channels the answer from Apollo back down to the human beings. 436 00:28:35,810 --> 00:28:39,912 But just what, or whom, was the reason for the 437 00:28:39,914 --> 00:28:42,650 oracle's bizarre trance like state? 438 00:28:44,252 --> 00:28:47,853 One in which, according to contemporary accounts, 439 00:28:47,855 --> 00:28:51,591 she could accurately predict everything from the Trojan War 440 00:28:51,593 --> 00:28:55,995 and the eventual decline of Greek power to the slaughter 441 00:28:55,997 --> 00:28:59,565 of the famed 300 Spartans at Thermopylae? 442 00:29:04,072 --> 00:29:07,840 Mainstream researchers say it was most likely due to her 443 00:29:07,842 --> 00:29:12,311 inhalation of intoxicating fumes from various gases seeping out 444 00:29:12,313 --> 00:29:14,483 of Mount Parnassus. 445 00:29:16,284 --> 00:29:17,584 But might she, in fact, 446 00:29:17,585 --> 00:29:21,522 have been in contact with an extraterrestrial being? 447 00:29:23,024 --> 00:29:26,927 One whom the ancient Greeks knew as Apollo? 448 00:29:28,129 --> 00:29:31,964 The idea that Apollo was possibly some 449 00:29:31,966 --> 00:29:37,602 extraterrestrial makes sense, because they want us to develop, 450 00:29:37,604 --> 00:29:39,205 they want us to have civilization. 451 00:29:39,207 --> 00:29:42,743 They want us to have technology and to be like them. 452 00:29:44,345 --> 00:29:48,848 We've always been their pet project, so to speak, 453 00:29:48,850 --> 00:29:54,053 meaning that they helped us become who we are today. 454 00:29:54,355 --> 00:29:57,690 Were ancient so-called gods, like Ahuru Mazda 455 00:29:57,692 --> 00:30:03,261 and Apollo, really part of an advanced race of celestial beings? 456 00:30:03,263 --> 00:30:06,898 Aliens who used human agents known as prophets 457 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,135 to instruct and steer the course of human civilization? 458 00:30:11,637 --> 00:30:16,339 If so, might these same extraterrestrials also be 459 00:30:16,341 --> 00:30:20,077 the force behind one of history's most infamous prophets? 460 00:30:20,079 --> 00:30:23,414 A man who claimed to have visions of some 461 00:30:23,453 --> 00:30:26,353 of the most cataclysmic events in history? 462 00:30:26,954 --> 00:30:29,890 The 16th century prophet named... 463 00:30:30,044 --> 00:30:31,444 Nostradamus. 464 00:30:40,245 --> 00:30:44,127 Southern France. 1555. 465 00:30:45,729 --> 00:30:50,966 Here a chemist and apothecary named Michel de Nostradame 466 00:30:50,968 --> 00:30:55,570 publishes an almanac titled The Prophecies. 467 00:30:55,572 --> 00:30:59,507 In it he writes more than a thousand four-line poetic 468 00:30:59,509 --> 00:31:05,779 verses called "quatrains," verses that seem to predict the future. 469 00:31:07,150 --> 00:31:11,152 Michel Nostradamus, at an early age, began having visions. 470 00:31:11,154 --> 00:31:15,891 He would stare into the water in a bowl, and he would begin to 471 00:31:15,893 --> 00:31:19,661 see visions of what he thought was the future. 472 00:31:19,663 --> 00:31:23,999 At the time that he was doing this, seeing into the future was 473 00:31:24,001 --> 00:31:28,236 considered witchcraft, and he risked being called a warlock 474 00:31:28,238 --> 00:31:31,006 and being taken by the Inquisition and basically killed. 475 00:31:31,008 --> 00:31:34,676 So what he did was, he masked 476 00:31:34,678 --> 00:31:39,247 his visions in quatrains, four-line prose poems, 477 00:31:39,249 --> 00:31:44,619 in which he hid the future very carefully so that you wouldn't really 478 00:31:44,621 --> 00:31:49,524 understand the quatrain until after the event had occurred. 479 00:31:50,426 --> 00:31:54,627 Some people say that he channeled his prophecies. 480 00:31:55,529 --> 00:31:57,832 I think he just went into 481 00:31:57,834 --> 00:32:00,901 either a higher state of consciousness or a very deep 482 00:32:00,903 --> 00:32:05,039 meditative state. And he was seeing things that 483 00:32:05,041 --> 00:32:07,175 he then would write about. 484 00:32:07,777 --> 00:32:15,316 In the centuries after his death, Nostradamus has 485 00:32:15,318 --> 00:32:18,018 been credited with predicting everything from the Great 486 00:32:18,020 --> 00:32:23,993 Chicago Fire of 1871... and the rise of Hitler in the 1930s... 487 00:32:25,595 --> 00:32:30,898 to the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima in 1945. 488 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,702 Nostradamus was able to access information which was 489 00:32:34,704 --> 00:32:38,038 not available to any of his contemporaries. 490 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,775 As such, he was identified as a visionary, a seer, a prophet, 491 00:32:41,777 --> 00:32:43,246 whatever name you want to give him. 492 00:32:45,348 --> 00:32:48,015 But perhaps the biggest unsolved mystery 493 00:32:48,017 --> 00:32:52,286 concerning Nostradamus is that no one knows the source of his 494 00:32:52,288 --> 00:32:57,892 mysterious powers of prediction. Was he fed futuristic 495 00:32:57,894 --> 00:33:01,462 information from a higher spiritual power, like the 496 00:33:01,464 --> 00:33:05,532 Oracle of Delphi? Or was he obtaining his uncanny 497 00:33:05,534 --> 00:33:11,038 knowledge from an otherworldly or extraterrestrial origin? 498 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,974 We know that he somehow was able to train his 499 00:33:13,976 --> 00:33:20,347 brain to really make contact with something out there. 500 00:33:20,349 --> 00:33:24,051 Now, science is going to try and give this various names, whether 501 00:33:24,053 --> 00:33:27,955 it is zero-point energy, the zero-point field, a different 502 00:33:27,957 --> 00:33:30,493 dimension, whatever it is. 503 00:33:31,095 --> 00:33:32,964 Some researchers believe 504 00:33:32,965 --> 00:33:38,265 that everything and everyone connects through the zero-point field, 505 00:33:38,266 --> 00:33:40,868 where a collection of electric charges 506 00:33:40,870 --> 00:33:47,472 from every thought, action and event of the past, present and future is stored. 507 00:33:47,978 --> 00:33:51,946 The zero-point field is thought to be where everything that ever was 508 00:33:51,948 --> 00:33:55,349 thought, or every behavior, every action... anything that 509 00:33:55,351 --> 00:33:59,153 involved energy... was dumped into the field, and still is. 510 00:33:59,455 --> 00:34:04,725 It literally contains all information for the infinite 511 00:34:04,727 --> 00:34:06,164 time that we have been here. 512 00:34:08,666 --> 00:34:11,168 The concept of the zero-point 513 00:34:11,169 --> 00:34:14,569 field rests on the theory that the universe 514 00:34:14,570 --> 00:34:17,671 occupies more than just the three spatial dimensions of 515 00:34:17,673 --> 00:34:22,576 height, width and depth. And this evolving concept is 516 00:34:22,578 --> 00:34:24,879 known as "string theory." 517 00:34:25,181 --> 00:34:26,083 In string theory, 518 00:34:26,084 --> 00:34:29,784 there are typically 11 dimensions that are envisioned. 519 00:34:29,785 --> 00:34:34,456 They're what we call very small, or wrapped up, or compact. 520 00:34:35,458 --> 00:34:38,726 So, if these dimensions are sufficiently small and curved 521 00:34:38,728 --> 00:34:42,663 and compact, we wouldn't be able to experience moving along them, 522 00:34:42,665 --> 00:34:43,967 so we wouldn't know they exist. 523 00:34:45,269 --> 00:34:47,604 But if string theory is, in fact, 524 00:34:47,605 --> 00:34:50,805 correct, is it possible that the zero-point 525 00:34:50,806 --> 00:34:53,908 field exists in another dimension... 526 00:34:54,710 --> 00:35:00,547 one undetected by mankind? Dozens of ancient cultures 527 00:35:00,549 --> 00:35:04,385 describe the existence of a cosmic well of knowledge that 528 00:35:04,387 --> 00:35:07,855 only certain people have the ability to access. 529 00:35:07,857 --> 00:35:11,859 The Hindus refer to it as the "Akashic Record." 530 00:35:11,861 --> 00:35:14,828 The Akashic Record, the idea behind it is 531 00:35:14,830 --> 00:35:17,998 that all of the information in the universe is sort of 532 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:22,835 preexisting and an individual could actually tap into that information. 533 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:26,473 What we see is that Nostradamus fits this 534 00:35:26,475 --> 00:35:29,977 perspective of people who are able to access information 535 00:35:29,979 --> 00:35:35,549 which is not of this world. He was able to take his brain, 536 00:35:35,551 --> 00:35:39,553 his mind, outside of the constraints of this reality, 537 00:35:39,555 --> 00:35:44,391 and when he was there, he was able to get information, which he 538 00:35:44,393 --> 00:35:48,429 then brought back to us, and, in his case, wrote down, so that we 539 00:35:48,431 --> 00:35:51,799 were able to later partake in this information. 540 00:35:52,301 --> 00:35:55,269 I think any of these great prophets were accessing 541 00:35:55,271 --> 00:35:58,972 the zero-point field, or, as I call it, the "grid." 542 00:35:58,974 --> 00:36:02,443 I think we all access information that we don't 543 00:36:02,445 --> 00:36:04,845 normally have. I think we do it in dreams, and 544 00:36:04,847 --> 00:36:07,648 I think we do it when we have d�j� vu. 545 00:36:07,650 --> 00:36:11,218 So I think we're all doing this. It's a gift, it's a talent, or 546 00:36:11,220 --> 00:36:14,855 maybe a skill, that is within all of us. 547 00:36:14,857 --> 00:36:18,325 So perhaps people like Nostradamus are really able to 548 00:36:18,327 --> 00:36:22,664 tap into that grid, that field, at will. 549 00:36:23,466 --> 00:36:26,433 Were the ancient prophets really able to access 550 00:36:26,435 --> 00:36:29,771 incredible information from a hidden dimension? 551 00:36:30,873 --> 00:36:34,775 Or from extraterrestrial beings, as some ancient astronaut 552 00:36:34,777 --> 00:36:39,980 theorists believe? And if so, could there still be 553 00:36:39,982 --> 00:36:44,551 prophets at work today? Men and women who are in league 554 00:36:44,553 --> 00:36:47,722 with other, perhaps otherworldly forces? 555 00:36:48,424 --> 00:36:53,360 Perhaps the answer can be found, not on another planet, but 556 00:36:53,362 --> 00:36:57,631 inside the mind... of Albert Einstein. 557 00:37:01,310 --> 00:37:04,810 September 26th, 1905 558 00:37:05,811 --> 00:37:08,720 Swiss patent clerk Albert Einstein publishes a 559 00:37:08,722 --> 00:37:13,158 groundbreaking paper in a German scientific journal, upending 560 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,563 centuries of belief on how the cosmos works. 561 00:37:17,665 --> 00:37:21,566 In the paper, Einstein proposes his theory of special 562 00:37:21,568 --> 00:37:25,771 relativity, in which he imagines a universe where both space and 563 00:37:25,773 --> 00:37:28,807 time are fluid and flexible. 564 00:37:29,209 --> 00:37:31,710 Prior to Einstein's theory of 565 00:37:31,712 --> 00:37:37,482 relativity, physicists tended to view the physical world as a 566 00:37:37,484 --> 00:37:44,988 static, immovable universe where everything was set into its place. 567 00:37:45,090 --> 00:37:46,692 The biggest change 568 00:37:46,694 --> 00:37:50,195 after Einstein's theories of relativity was how we viewed 569 00:37:50,197 --> 00:37:53,398 space and time. We thought of space, literally, 570 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,201 as just what we move through, and time is how you measure 571 00:37:56,203 --> 00:37:58,203 things going forward. 572 00:37:58,205 --> 00:38:00,505 And Einstein made them geometrically connected to 573 00:38:00,507 --> 00:38:02,674 each other. They were no longer 574 00:38:02,676 --> 00:38:05,643 fundamentally different, and you had to account for them together. 575 00:38:05,945 --> 00:38:07,279 He showed that 576 00:38:07,281 --> 00:38:11,750 time and space were relative, and that time and space can be 577 00:38:11,752 --> 00:38:17,155 warped, and ultimately that time travel and space travel 578 00:38:17,157 --> 00:38:22,595 and black holes and time warps, all of these things were possible. 579 00:38:22,596 --> 00:38:27,097 Although Einstein never claimed 580 00:38:27,099 --> 00:38:30,135 that his profound knowledge had divine origins... 581 00:38:30,137 --> 00:38:33,605 as did the prophets of ancient times... his insights into the 582 00:38:33,607 --> 00:38:39,176 fundamental nature of the universe were no less powerful and influential. 583 00:38:39,578 --> 00:38:42,779 Whenever someone like Einstein 584 00:38:42,781 --> 00:38:48,420 is able to look at the universe and physics and 585 00:38:48,422 --> 00:38:54,224 then see things in a different way, this is a kind of mystic awareness. 586 00:38:54,626 --> 00:38:59,294 And you have to wonder if it's not some contact with extraterrestrials, 587 00:38:59,296 --> 00:39:02,365 where E.T.'s appear to you in your bedroom, 588 00:39:02,367 --> 00:39:05,268 give you some insight and knowledge 589 00:39:05,508 --> 00:39:09,977 that's going to help you on your way to that new scientific discovery. 590 00:39:11,879 --> 00:39:15,847 Einstein's wife reported after he died that his 591 00:39:15,849 --> 00:39:20,987 favorite book was Isis Unveiled by Madame Blavatsky. 592 00:39:22,689 --> 00:39:25,690 It's a book all about the innate psychic ability of 593 00:39:25,692 --> 00:39:30,796 humans, about the hidden history of the human race, and I believe 594 00:39:30,798 --> 00:39:38,203 that Einstein was very much into all of this, and used his own 595 00:39:38,205 --> 00:39:42,307 psychic abilities to create the theory of relativity. 596 00:39:42,309 --> 00:39:46,745 And in fact, Einstein got the theory of relativity by standing 597 00:39:46,747 --> 00:39:50,482 on a street and looking at the mist surrounding a streetlight 598 00:39:50,484 --> 00:39:54,753 and imagining in his head how long it took for the light to go 599 00:39:54,755 --> 00:39:58,991 from the streetlight, hit the mist and reflect to his eye. 600 00:39:59,593 --> 00:40:04,162 And then he realized, in a kind of a transcendental, meditative, 601 00:40:04,164 --> 00:40:08,200 quiet moment, that light travels, and then the theory of 602 00:40:08,202 --> 00:40:11,204 relativity came from that mystical experience. 603 00:40:12,406 --> 00:40:15,607 Were Einstein's insights the result of his own 604 00:40:15,609 --> 00:40:19,811 incredible IQ? Or were his discoveries aided by 605 00:40:19,813 --> 00:40:24,516 his ability to tap into the knowledge of the universe? 606 00:40:24,518 --> 00:40:28,053 The same kind of knowledge that was also made available to the 607 00:40:28,055 --> 00:40:30,923 great prophets of the ancient world? 608 00:40:31,625 --> 00:40:35,193 The word "prophet" is used in areas of innovation and 609 00:40:35,195 --> 00:40:40,265 great thinkers and engineers, and developers of products are 610 00:40:40,267 --> 00:40:42,501 sometimes thought of as prophets. 611 00:40:42,503 --> 00:40:45,138 There are new prophets constantly. 612 00:40:46,340 --> 00:40:50,742 1953. James Watson and Francis Crick 613 00:40:50,744 --> 00:40:54,579 discover the shape and makeup of DNA. 614 00:40:54,581 --> 00:41:00,118 In 2000, J. Craig Venter decodes the human genome. 615 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:04,155 Might these also be examples of modern-day prophets functioning 616 00:41:04,157 --> 00:41:07,692 in our midst? Prophets that are able to tap 617 00:41:07,694 --> 00:41:10,864 into advanced alien knowledge? 618 00:41:11,966 --> 00:41:15,003 There are people in every age who know 619 00:41:15,004 --> 00:41:19,404 where the future lies, and they are called prophets, 620 00:41:19,405 --> 00:41:24,175 whether they are Steve Jobs or Einstein or whoever. 621 00:41:24,177 --> 00:41:27,679 They are people who set out a path and really lead other 622 00:41:27,681 --> 00:41:31,082 people along this path. When you start looking into what 623 00:41:31,084 --> 00:41:34,686 they are, you're beginning to realize that there are certain 624 00:41:34,688 --> 00:41:37,590 anomalies in the lives of these people. 625 00:41:38,492 --> 00:41:42,694 The information which they possess, which helped us guide 626 00:41:42,696 --> 00:41:47,599 along the path, really is not theirs, but that they somehow 627 00:41:47,601 --> 00:41:50,303 are messengers of a larger reality. 628 00:41:51,305 --> 00:41:53,772 I think prophets could be communicating with 629 00:41:53,774 --> 00:41:58,375 extraterrestrial, extra- dimensional beings, angels, gods. 630 00:41:58,677 --> 00:42:00,545 If you're channeling information 631 00:42:00,547 --> 00:42:03,481 that is far beyond your own wisdom, you're automatically 632 00:42:03,483 --> 00:42:06,819 going to assume it's coming from somebody smarter than you. 633 00:42:07,521 --> 00:42:11,990 They may be coming... crossing over dimensions so that they 634 00:42:11,992 --> 00:42:13,995 can impart their knowledge. 635 00:42:16,497 --> 00:42:20,400 But why would otherworldly beings use humans to shape 636 00:42:20,402 --> 00:42:26,171 our religions...our politics... our science? 637 00:42:26,573 --> 00:42:30,108 Is there perhaps an extraterrestrial plan for the 638 00:42:30,110 --> 00:42:33,712 human species? One that is guiding us to our 639 00:42:33,714 --> 00:42:38,049 next, or perhaps final, destination? 640 00:42:39,151 --> 00:42:41,518 You have to wonder: Why do they care about us? 641 00:42:41,720 --> 00:42:43,388 Why would they want to help us, 642 00:42:43,390 --> 00:42:47,659 give us prophecies, instruct us in better lives? 643 00:42:47,661 --> 00:42:50,629 And, in many ways, it's only natural that they would. 644 00:42:50,631 --> 00:42:52,766 We're like their children. 645 00:42:53,868 --> 00:42:59,437 We try to reduce them to great prophets, great leaders, but truly, 646 00:42:59,439 --> 00:43:02,440 they were great mystics. And the story of a great mystic 647 00:43:02,442 --> 00:43:07,345 is really that he is somebody who has part of his being 648 00:43:07,347 --> 00:43:13,118 in this reality... and part of his being in another reality. 649 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:17,322 These are people who have had a foot in this dimension 650 00:43:17,324 --> 00:43:19,457 but also in another dimension. 651 00:43:23,459 --> 00:43:25,264 Prophets... 652 00:43:25,465 --> 00:43:28,465 chosen by beings from other worlds... 653 00:43:28,766 --> 00:43:33,568 and bearing messages that have changed the destiny of mankind. 654 00:43:34,170 --> 00:43:39,973 Could there really be an ultimate plan that is, as yet, unknown to us? 655 00:43:40,375 --> 00:43:46,245 Perhaps the answer lies hidden, still waiting to be discovered. 656 00:43:46,847 --> 00:43:52,939 Or maybe it will be revealed when they return. 657 00:43:52,940 --> 00:43:55,740 sync and corrections by bellows www.addic7ed.com 658 00:43:56,305 --> 00:44:02,339 Support us and become VIP member to remove all ads from www.OpenSubtitles.org 58351
