Mysterious Earth

Making his C2C debut, author Paul Devereux shared his research into unusual geophysical phenomena and anthropological sites. Natural structures were the first sacred places, he said, and probably served as inspiration for man-made structures such as the pyramids in Egypt. (He noted that there is a very large natural pyramid-shaped formation in the Valley of the Kings).

Devereux also presented his views on UFOs and paranormal phenomena. Skeptical of the notion of alien visitation, he commented that the "rigid, literal idea of ETs" has hindered our concepts of Earth's real mysteries and it limits the way we think of other phenomena.

And yet he described having a variety of paranormal-styled encounters himself over the years which included seeing an anomalous "airship" as a child in the 1950's, and a ghost-like 2-3 ft. tall figure appearing in a road. Devereux said he relates these experiences to the notion of "apparitions," adding that "the answer to these mysteries is much bigger than we dare to think."

Paul Devereux, pictured in front of the Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacan (the mysterious, ruined 2000-year-old city in the Valley of Mexico), shares these earth and light images along with his captions (click on the titles to view the photos):

• Death Valley Ground Marking: An ancient and mysterious ground marking in a remote part of Death Valley, California. These kind of enigmatic features are found in locations all over the Americas -- the Nazca lines in Peru are merely the most famous example. We are now beginning to understand what they were all about -- and it wasn't to do with "ancient astronauts"! I call them "shamanic landscapes".
  
  
• Ritual Cave of Loltun: Shows fused stalagmite/stalactites in the ancient Mayan ritual cave of Loltun: when struck they issue deep resonant notes... archaeology is beginning to listen to ancient places...
  
  
• Ritual Cave of Balankanche: A fused stalactite/stalagmite in the ancient Mayan ritual cave of Balankanche that has the remarkable natural likeness to a tree. One-thousand-year-old incense burners surround it. Holy places started as natural, venerated sites that had something unusual about them, and this is one example.
  
  
• Mystery Light (Photo: Project Hessdalen): A mysterious pulsing light photographed in the Norwegian valley of Hessdalen. Such mystery lights, what I call "earth lights", form another subject area I research and write about.
  
  
• Earth Lights: Another mystery lightform or "earth lights" photographed near the San Andreas Fault, California, in the 1970s by physicist David Kubrin.
