1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000 Immortals descending to Earth in chariots of fire. 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,000 These UFOs have been seen for thousands of years. 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,000 A revered temple built in the image of a flying saucer. 4 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:19,000 Is Buddhism constantly in contact with intelligent life from other worlds? 5 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,000 A holy shrine marking the site of otherworldly activity. 6 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:29,000 In my opinion, the site itself could be significant to UFOs and extraterrestrials. 7 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,000 And gods converging on perhaps the holiest site of all. 8 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,000 Could it be that these advanced beings built a temple like this? 9 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,000 Hi UFOs! 10 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,000 Holy s***! 11 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:46,000 Are the world's sacred sites the product of our reverence for God? 12 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:52,000 Or are they the result of contact with interstellar travelers in the distant past? 13 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,000 The World's Greatest 14 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,000 The World's Greatest 15 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,000 The World's Greatest 16 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,000 The World's Greatest 17 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,000 The World's Greatest 18 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000 The World's Greatest 19 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:22,000 Along the northern shores of the Mediterranean Sea, in southern Europe, is Greece. 20 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:29,000 Home to some of the oldest cities in the world, continuously inhabited for nearly 5,000 years. 21 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,000 More recently, Greece is also home to frequent sightings of UFOs. 22 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:43,000 Like this strange craft captured by an airline passenger flying over the Aegean Sea in 2018. 23 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:49,000 Greece has seen like a five-fold increase in UFO sightings recently. 24 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:57,000 There have been well over 50 documented cases that just isn't explainable by conventional technology. 25 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:04,000 Like this brightly lit UFO seen over Thessaloniki, Greece in 2014. 26 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:10,000 We're talking about spheres, disks, triangles all coming in and out of the atmosphere. 27 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:17,000 But what could attract such an unusual level of otherworldly activity? 28 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:25,000 Researchers say clues can be found in the numerous once magnificent temples built to honor the ancient Greek gods. 29 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000 One such site is Hia top Mount Parnassus in central Greece. 30 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000 The sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi. 31 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:38,000 A site once filled with astonishing temple structures dedicated to Apollo. 32 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:44,000 One of the most important and beloved of Greek gods, who was the son of Zeus, ruler of the gods. 33 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:49,000 Apollo was the god of the sun and light, prophecy and knowledge and more. 34 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:59,000 The sanctuary of Delphi is in the mountains north of Athens. 35 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,000 It's the kind of place that you'd expect a pilgrimage to end. 36 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:08,000 It's someplace that's difficult to get to and it must have taken quite an effort to build it there. 37 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:15,000 It's up a hill as you go and then there's temples in varying spots and it definitely feels like a sacred spot. 38 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:25,000 I've been fortunate to go there twice. It's a magnificent place and a place that is considered very, very sacred by the Greeks. 39 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:32,000 Going back thousands of years where it was said that this was the home of Apollo. 40 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:37,000 According to Greek myths and legends, all of these temples are actually temples to the gods. 41 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:45,000 These skybeans or sky gods that came down from above came to earth way back at the dawn of antiquity. 42 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:51,000 Legends of the Greek god Apollo have made it all throughout time. 43 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:57,000 In fact, our own moon mission was named the Apollo mission after the Greek god. 44 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,000 Lift up, we have lift up. 45 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:11,000 According to Greek mythology, this breathtaking sight was also home to the famous oracle, a high priestess. 46 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,000 Apollo was supposed to have been very handsome. 47 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:20,000 He was the god of prophecy and agriculture and beauty. 48 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:32,000 And what was interesting to me because usually the oracle was a woman, okay, and Apollo spoke through her. 49 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:42,000 He could speak to the human race through an oracle who was there to transmit his communications from on high. 50 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,000 Now this oracle was both a conduit and a law giver. 51 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:55,000 She would pass on the information that Apollo had given her to the people and they would then implement those commands. 52 00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:04,000 But is it possible that this interaction between a human and a god could have actually been an interaction between a human and a more advanced being? 53 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:14,000 When you look at ancient Greek mythology, you've got multiple gods, but they interact with humans frequently. 54 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:22,000 So that leads to a question, it's an obvious question we all want to know. Does this represent actual beings? 55 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:29,000 Researchers say the answer is yes. 56 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:34,000 And for evidence, they point to the shocking and influential book, Chariots of the Gods, 57 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:41,000 in which author Eric Von Daniken proposes that the stories of Greek gods are far more than mere mythology. 58 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,000 Eric Von Daniken suggested that all of these ancient Greek gods were actually extraterrestrials 59 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,000 who would come to earth to dominate, communicate and rule over the human race. 60 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:59,000 Now this is a theory that's been taken more and more seriously in recent years because as you read the descriptions of these alien beings, 61 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:05,000 the Chariots that they rode, it actually sounds like a fairly modern description of UFOs 62 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:11,000 and the weapons that are being used appear to be maybe lasers, maybe different missile technologies, 63 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:18,000 but it's all stuff that adds up to these guys are not gods, but they're actually just beings, 64 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:25,000 normal physical flesh and blood beings like you and me, who have higher technology but came to earth in the ancient past. 65 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,000 It sounds far-fetched, but if myths and legends can serve as evidence, 66 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,000 researchers look closer at the ancient Greek tales for proof of such claims. 67 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:40,000 Some of their stories say, well, the gods, they would get angry, they were immortal, so they weren't human, 68 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,000 but they have power and technology. 69 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:53,000 Some of these Greek gods were depicted in winged chariots with fire and smoke coming out the back and traveling from place to place. 70 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,000 They would disappear for months or years at a time and then return. 71 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:02,000 Some people think that these chariots are UFOs. 72 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,000 Diving deeper to explore whether or not the Greek gods could be connected to extraterrestrials, 73 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:18,000 the ancient Greek myths say Apollo's legend begins when, as an infant, he mortally wounds a dragon by shooting it with a thunderbolt of brilliant light. 74 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:26,000 According to their mythology, these sky gods used advanced technology, fired thunderbolts and beams of light at each other, 75 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:35,000 conducted wars amongst themselves and even made war on human beings, and basically dominated the Greek culture for centuries. 76 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:45,000 The thunderbolts, to me, sounded like they had access to technology that obviously the average person didn't have. 77 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:53,000 So when we talk about the gods of the Greeks and the way they're described, it seems more that they are otherworldly. 78 00:07:54,000 --> 00:08:01,000 It seems to me that the god Apollo was an advanced being that literally came here, probably from another planet or another solar system, 79 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:06,000 and used his UFO technology to fly around and influence people on planet Earth. 80 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:17,000 Our ancestors were trying to tell us that at some point in human history, beings landed here from somewhere else, from the heavens, from another planet. 81 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:28,000 And these stories, these temples are a testament to the fact that we are not alone and that we have been visited by other celestial intelligences. 82 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:42,000 And perhaps that's what happened at this fabled place called Delphi, where Apollo spoke to the people through the oracle and why the Greeks built the temple at Delphi for Apollo. 83 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:49,000 While Vondanikon's book pointed modern-day researchers to consider that ancient gods were actually extraterrestrial visitors, 84 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:59,000 a far older source of evidence exists to support this idea, and it's found in sacred texts revered at the largest religious temple in the world. 85 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,000 Coming up. 86 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,000 Why make it look exactly like what everybody talks about a UFO looks like? 87 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:12,000 Buddhism sees no contradictions in beings from other worlds or other dimensions. 88 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:28,000 Researchers believe Greek myths about the sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi may point to an early connection between humans and extraterrestrials. 89 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:38,000 And the idea that sacred sites are somehow linked to ancient alien visitors isn't limited to the Greek gods. 90 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,000 Southeast Asia. 91 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,000 Bangkok, Thailand. 92 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000 An ultra-modern cityscape rises along the Gulf of Thailand. 93 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:57,000 Yet 20 minutes north of the city, there is a colossal 1000-acre Buddhist temple. 94 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:11,000 There are thousands of golden Buddhas protecting the location, and what's truly incredible is that it is in the shape of a golden flying disc. 95 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:20,000 Known as Wat Pra Dhammakaya, this religious site was built about 50 years ago in 1970. 96 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,000 Eight times bigger than Vatican City. 97 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,000 This temple is the world's largest religious complex. 98 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:39,000 It can hold more people than any other temple or sacred site on the planet, and it was actually fairly recently established by a very specific branch of the Thai Buddhist Church. 99 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:49,000 The temple's golden dome and the outer spherical surface are decorated with 300,000 gilded Buddha statuettes. 100 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,000 This is a very supermassive structure. 101 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,000 So what would make the Buddhist build a temple this large, and what is the significance of its shape? 102 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,000 Because the way the structure is built, it resembles a modern-day classic UFO. 103 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:14,000 To most observers, the visual impact of the temple is supernatural as it glimmers, appearing to hover UFO-like over meditation grounds, large enough to accommodate a million Buddhists hailing from countless countries. 104 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:27,000 What's truly incredible is that on the doors of the structure, there are images of flying discs which look exactly like the building itself. 105 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:34,000 Why make it look exactly like what everybody talks about a UFO looks like? 106 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:43,000 In my personal opinion, I believe that the Buddhists were trying to copy or mimic something that they believed engaged mankind, maybe in the distant past, maybe even in current day. 107 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:56,000 Evidence of this, say UFO researchers, can be found in 45 confirmed sightings of UFOs over this region of Thailand since the year 2000. 108 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:02,000 13 of which took place at or near the site itself. 109 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:12,000 Now, it seems as though the presence of this flying saucer temple has actually attracted more attention from the guys in the sky. 110 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:24,000 But could the UFO sightings at this temple's location be about something much more than just its saucer-like shape, and something far more ancient? 111 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:39,000 Researchers say the answer is yes, and point to the evidence in the Buddhist Pali Canon, the standard collection of scriptures in the Theravada Buddhist tradition, that states, 112 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:47,000 the realms of existence are divided into three distinct worlds, and in each there are many more realms. 113 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:58,000 From my own experiences in Mahayana Buddhism and Zen Buddhism, Buddhism sees no contradictions in beings from other worlds or other dimensions. 114 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,000 Many deities are worshipped in Buddhism. 115 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:12,000 And has there been some type of advanced knowledge passed down from generation to generation through the Buddhist religion that can allow you to know that there's intelligent beings all around the universe? 116 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:23,000 Further evidence within the Buddhist scripture suggests that beings communicate with other worlds. 117 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:32,000 In the sensuous world, there are destinations that include our own human realm, as well as several realms occupied by other beings. 118 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:41,000 What they're saying is sometimes on other worlds, you don't communicate using voice, you don't communicate using sound, you simply communicate with telepathic instructions. 119 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:50,000 That's really interesting because a lot of UFO abductees here on Earth have had the same kinds of experiences, and it's actually a higher means of communication. 120 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,000 The scripture also speaks about communicating across time and space. 121 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:04,000 Sermons may be given from one world to another, with a flash of light. 122 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:11,000 They know that there can be telepathic contact, that one can communicate with people without words. 123 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:20,000 The Dalai Lama has spoken about what to do in case one ever met someone from another world. This is not strange to Buddhism. 124 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,000 Although scholars believe the Buddhist scripture is not descriptive of actual events, 125 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:33,000 UFO researchers point out that it often refers to divas, which are other worldly beings or deities. 126 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:45,000 The fine material world consists of 16 realms whose inhabitants or beings possess extremely refined bodies of pure light. 127 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:56,000 What this suggests very, very strongly is that Buddhism is very open and aware that the universe is teeming with sentient life, 128 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,000 and that these are our brothers and sisters, and that we should not fear them. 129 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:11,000 Combine that with this temple that looks like a spaceship, and the question becomes, how do they know this? 130 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,000 Where are they getting this information? 131 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:24,000 Is Buddhism constantly in contact with intelligent life from other worlds? 132 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:35,000 For UFO researchers, the evidence contained within the Buddhist scripture speak volumes about the connection between Wat Pra Dhammakaya and other worldly beings. 133 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,000 There are a lot of references to beings from another world. 134 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,000 And it has to do with their craft. 135 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:50,000 So in essence, when you would enter the temple, you would actually enter another world, and that's the idea. 136 00:15:51,000 --> 00:16:10,000 These stories, these temples are a testament to the human propensity to want to look out, to look up, to have someone to guide, to show us how to live, what is good, what is beautiful, and what is true. 137 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:20,000 But even though the evidence of an alien nexus is compelling, most of it weighs heavily on scripture written long before this colossal 50-year-old temple was built. 138 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:28,000 Proof of an authentic connection needs to originate from where extraterrestrial activity was actually witnessed. 139 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,000 Coming up. 140 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:42,000 Allah is referred to as the Lord of the Worlds, plural, which implies that there is intelligent life outside of our solar system. 141 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,000 This is astonishing evidence. 142 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:09,000 But they say such chronicles need to originate from the holy place in question. 143 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:19,000 Take for example a site revered as the holiest city by the world's second largest religion and practiced by 24% of the world's population. 144 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:31,000 50 miles east of the Red Sea in western Saudi Arabia stands the sacred city of Mecca, home to millions of believers of Islam and the birthplace of the prophet Muhammad. 145 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:37,000 It is the most sacred city in the Islamic religion and in fact no one is allowed to go there unless they are a Muslim. 146 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:48,000 Mecca's most famous landmark and Islam's holiest site is the Grand Mosque and in the center there's a sacred cube shaped structure known as the Kaaba. 147 00:17:49,000 --> 00:18:05,000 In the central religious text of Islam, the Quran, the history of Mecca goes back to Abraham, the Hebrew and Muslim patriarch who built the Kaaba around 2000 BC with the help of his elder son Ishmael. 148 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:20,000 Now according to Islamic tradition, the Kaaba is a very significant site because it's the location where Abraham was about to sacrifice his son. 149 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:35,000 Muhammad picked that site as the most sacred site for the Islamic religion and it continues to this day to be the most sacred pilgrimage spot for the Islamic world. 150 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:46,000 Strangely even here on August 30th, 2011 around 4 in the morning, a shocking number of UFOs were sighted high above the mosque. 151 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:53,000 This is an indication that the city itself is significant to UFOs and extraterrestrials. 152 00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:01,000 A lot of people have tried to dismiss these videos as being flocks of birds but that seems extremely unlikely because birds are not luminescent. 153 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:10,000 Could such sightings have any connection to the Quran's teachings that say Mecca and the Grand Mosque are the sacred center of the Islamic world? 154 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:21,000 If you are a debout Muslim, you are required at least once in your lifetime to go visit Mecca. The pilgrimage is called the Hajj. 155 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,000 It's also been performed for nearly 1400 years. 156 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:38,000 According to the Quran, you are required to circle the Kaaba seven times. You go counterclockwise. 157 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:47,000 What's interesting about this is that the planets in our solar system rotate counterclockwise. 158 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:55,000 Is it possible that ancient Muslims had this knowledge and if so, where might it have come from? 159 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:05,000 Further indication of the cosmic nature of the Muslim pilgrimage, some say is located at the eastern corner of the Kaaba. 160 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,000 What's known simply as the Black Stone. 161 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:19,000 Once they start encircling the Kaaba, they encircle it until they get closer and closer to this Black Stone that is encasing its frame and they want to touch it. 162 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:28,000 Many pilgrims also try to kiss the Black Stone to emulate the kiss that Islamic tradition records that the stone received from Muhammad. 163 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:34,000 Some people say coming from this Black Stone there that it's some type of supernatural energy. 164 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:47,000 Some people said they've had healings there. There's something special, something unique about making this pilgrimage and having to go to visit this stone. 165 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:54,000 The Kaaba Stone itself is really fascinating because Muslims believe it energizes their bodies. It gives them something that they didn't have before. 166 00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:07,000 So that is an indication that perhaps this particular stone has some sort of unusual origin, that it is not simply a rock somebody found in the desert somewhere and stuck into the side of this temple. 167 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:16,000 So what exactly is the Black Stone and if it does possess a kind of supernatural energy, where did it come from? 168 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,000 According to the Hadith, the Islamic record of the words and deeds of Muhammad, 169 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,000 the Black Stone descended from Paradise. 170 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:38,000 The history of the stone according to Islamic legend is that the stone predates Adam and Eve and that it was brought to this planet by the angel Gabriel, which adds even more mystery to it. 171 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:45,000 And also it adds this whole thing about supernatural energy. It is one of the pillars of Islam. 172 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:52,000 And yet this Black Stone truly is an extraterrestrial object because it descended here from the heavens. 173 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:58,000 A lot of historians and researchers think that it might be a meteorite, but it hasn't been tested yet. 174 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:10,000 Though no one really knows what it is or where it came from, researchers speculate that the Black Stone's mysterious origin adds to its captivating nature. 175 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:21,000 And because this site has such spiritual significance, Qutbas have created a kind of energy intrinsic to Mecca that attracts the interest of extraterrestrials. 176 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:28,000 Perhaps. So in a search for clues, investigators once again seek answers in Islamic tradition. 177 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:41,000 We must remember that when Islam talks about Allah, for instance, they will say Allah the beneficent, the merciful, Lord of the worlds, plural. 178 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:47,000 So inherent in that is that Allah is not just the Lord of heaven and earth. 179 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:55,000 There are other worlds which implies that there is intelligent life outside of our solar system. 180 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:09,000 Does the pilgrimage at Mecca, like Buddhist teachings at Wat Prah, Damakaya and the myths of ancient Greece, add to the conversation about a connection between sacred sites and other worldly beings? 181 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:15,000 And is so, what about another place held sacred by the world's three major religions? 182 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,000 Whoa! 183 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,000 Coming up. 184 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,000 This is the place where Solomon would directly communicate with God himself. 185 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:30,000 This belief to have actually been a landing pad for a spacecraft to come and go. 186 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:48,000 Researchers believe there is persuasive evidence of a connection between sacred places and extraterrestrial activity in the past and present. 187 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:55,000 But there is only one place on earth where such a nexus could involve half the world's population. 188 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,000 Temple Mount, Old City, Jerusalem. 189 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:12,000 In the place known as the Holy Land, breaking news reports on January 28th, 2011 show a glowing orb hovering in the sky, then slowly descend over the iconic dome of the rock. 190 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,000 Hi UFO. Amazing. 191 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,000 Before shooting skyward, like a rocket. 192 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,000 Whoa! 193 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:27,000 Pictures and video were taken of this UFO from many, many different angles. Hundreds of people, maybe thousands of people saw it and they made international news. 194 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:34,000 And just as slowly as it came down, it shot off into the sky at speeds estimated at about 4,000 miles an hour. 195 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,000 Everybody was in complete shock. 196 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:49,000 Hundreds of people and four videos from different angles bear witness to the mysterious event, which takes place over one of the most secure no-fly zones in the world. 197 00:24:54,000 --> 00:25:07,000 When you're looking at it from different perspectives, you get a chance to see where the city is located, how this object is coming down directly in position of the dome, and you get a real good perspective that this is a real object, not something that's a big hoax. 198 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:15,000 Temple Mount really does appear to be increasingly an epicenter for alien extraterrestrial or other worldly activity. 199 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:30,000 Are extraterrestrial biological beings trying to understand religion? Are they trying to understand devotion or faith? Or what a soul is? And where else to get it but the epicenter of it all? 200 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:36,000 And every year, millions of visitors from all corners of the globe arrive at Temple Mount to worship God. 201 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:46,000 Temple Mount is probably the most contested piece of real estate on the planet because it's revered by three major religions. 202 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,000 There's Islam, there's Christianity, and then there's Judaism. 203 00:25:52,000 --> 00:26:01,000 The Muslims revere it because it's where Muhammad went to when he visited Jerusalem and also where he ascended into heaven. 204 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:09,000 The Temple Mount was very important to the Jewish faith because in ancient times it was the location of the ancient Temple of Jerusalem. 205 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:16,000 And to the Christian faith, Temple Mount is very important because that is the place where Jesus traveled to and appeared several times. 206 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:25,000 As a matter of fact, on one occasion he threw out the money changers. So this is why the three faiths have found this a very important place and so revered around the world. 207 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:35,000 But how did this site become so crucial to the world's three major religions in the first place? For answers, researchers look to the Hebrew Bible. 208 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:45,000 There's a story in the Bible where in the 10th century BC, King David decided to build a temple for Yahweh. 209 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:54,000 He didn't live long enough to see it happen. So King Solomon, his son, decided to build a temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. 210 00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:03,000 Sir Isaac Newton was studying the geometry and the construction and the makeup of the temple. 211 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:10,000 And what he learned is that there was obvious sacred knowledge involved in the dimensions. 212 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:21,000 And that knowledge, according to Newton, included ancient wisdom about proportions in nature and man's place in creation. 213 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:31,000 A temple like this was designed to bring God to earth. The fascinating thing about that is inside the structure was the Holy of Holies. 214 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:40,000 It was the innermost sanctuary in Solomon's temple where the Hebrew Bible says the sacred Ark of the Covenant was kept. 215 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:48,000 And inside the Ark, two stone tablets containing the Ten Commandments which were given by God to Moses on Mount Sinai. 216 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,000 This is the place where a high priest would directly communicate with God himself. 217 00:27:53,000 --> 00:28:02,000 But is it possible, as some UFO researchers speculate, that this communication was facilitated by advanced technology contained within the Ark? 218 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:09,000 I believe the Ark was probably some sort of communication device where you could talk to Yahweh. 219 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:22,000 It has also been suggested by medieval Jewish tradition and Arabic writers that King Solomon may have worn a magic ring engraved with the sacred symbol called the Seal of Solomon. 220 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:31,000 There's been much speculation of what this ring looked like. Some people said that it had the Jewish star on it, which is a powerful symbol, those two triangles. 221 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,000 And this ring may have had special technology. 222 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:49,000 The medieval text described how a magical ring was also entrusted to Solomon by the archangel, Michael, and that this ring gave Solomon the power to communicate with and command demons and other supernatural creatures. 223 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:59,000 The Jewish teachings actually say that he didn't have any human help in building the temple. The temple itself was built by creatures from another realm. 224 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:06,000 Creatures who may have provided the insight to construct the temple with what Isaac Newton called sacred knowledge. 225 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:15,000 Could it be that advanced beings and advanced technology specifically built a temple like this? Some say it's true. 226 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:28,000 And despite such otherworldly help, Solomon's temple did not last. Over the centuries, the first temple was destroyed by invading Babylonians and the second temple was built in its place. 227 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:34,000 Then in 691 AD, the Persians built an Islamic shrine. 228 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,000 When the Persians invaded Jerusalem, they built what is now today called the Dome of the Rock. 229 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:48,000 Now, according to their beliefs, this is the exact same place where Muhammad ascended to heaven. 230 00:29:50,000 --> 00:30:01,000 According to the Islamic Quran, the rock from which Muhammad ascended is known as the foundation stone. This stone now lies directly under the golden dome of this shrine. 231 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:07,000 This is the site where Muhammad ascended into heaven from this foundation stone. 232 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:16,000 And this spot is also the exact spot where the Jewish faith housed the Ark of the Covenant in the Holy of Holies. 233 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:28,000 The most sacred possession and piece of real estate for the Jewish people. This is the whole crux of the tension between these two faiths. 234 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:39,000 Is it possible that the spiritual significance of Temple Mount provides the site with some sort of inexplicable energy that has been attracting UFOs in recent years? 235 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:52,000 Much like the sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi, and could this same energy have also drawn extraterrestrials to this extraordinary place in an ancient time before sacred structures were even built? 236 00:30:53,000 --> 00:31:01,000 It's believed by some people that this site was a landing pad or even a launching pad for a spacecraft to come and go in the distant past. 237 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:11,000 Could there really be an interstellar connection to the Temple Mount? And if so, what might this say about the possibility of intelligent life in the universe? 238 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:20,000 There are those who say the answer lies at a sacred site, revered by the faithful of the world's oldest religion. 239 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:28,000 The Temple was built for the God Shiva, who is known as the Great Destroyer. 240 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:37,000 Where is this technology coming from to create structures like this? Are these gods extraterrestrial? 241 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:56,000 Many sacred sites around the world have ancient myths, legends and sacred scripture describing interaction with gods who came down from the sky. 242 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,000 What if this contact was really with extraterrestrial entities? 243 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:11,000 In the western region of India, in the Maharashtra province, the Kalasa Temple is believed to have been constructed in the 8th century AD. 244 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:23,000 When I personally see something like that, I think to myself something I heard long ago and always rings true to me, that when man is making something to God, it's not supposed to be easy. 245 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,000 In fact, the harder it was, the greater your show of devotion. 246 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:37,000 This stunning temple complex is renowned for its exotic setting, impressive architecture, historic artwork and long forgotten history. 247 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:42,000 Kalasa Temple is the world's largest monolithic structure. 248 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:47,000 And what that means is it was carved from one giant rock. 249 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:55,000 They carved this incredibly complex structure all the way from the top down. 250 00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:04,000 I love when sculptors talk about they see a rock and they see something inside the rock. 251 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,000 There's a statue that's waiting to be released from that rock. 252 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:18,000 But in terms of the Kalasa Temple, somebody saw an entire temple complex locked inside a block and pulled it off. 253 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:31,000 Visited yearly by thousands of worshippers of Hinduism, the temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva and was named for Mount Kalasa in the nearby Himalayas, the legendary home of Shiva. 254 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:43,000 The temple was built for the god Shiva, who was known as the great destroyer and who is part of what we would call the Hindu trinity. 255 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:47,000 The other gods being Brahma and Vishnu. 256 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,000 Now Shiva is talked about with great reverence and even fear. 257 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,000 First of all, if your title is the destroyer, people are going to fear you. 258 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:12,000 According to mainstream scholars, it's estimated that 400,000 tons of basalt rock was excavated from the site of this volcanic mountain by monks using only hammers and chisels. 259 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,000 The site that took nearly 25 years to complete. 260 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:22,000 But today, engineers remain baffled as to how this could have been achieved. 261 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:31,000 They believe that about two tons of rock would have to be removed every hour around the clock for 25 years straight to complete the temple in this time frame. 262 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,000 All while carving an artistic masterpiece in the process. 263 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:41,000 Such a feat would be well beyond human capability at the time before the age of machines. 264 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:47,000 They took just the earth and carved out the Kalasa temple. 265 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:53,000 There must have been something that allowed them to carve this thing out of a single block. 266 00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:00,000 The fact is, nobody really knows how it was created over a period of 25 years. 267 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:06,000 What tools were used or how it was done in a time period that is considered so primitive. 268 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,000 So then how was this artistic masterpiece created? 269 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:22,000 If modern engineers have no explanation for how this temple could have been carved in 25 years, then what are we to make of something far more shockingly impossible? 270 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:31,000 According to ancient legends handed down by the original people of this region, the Kalasa temple was actually built in one week. 271 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:39,000 Now this is absolutely amazing. How could something that sophisticated and elaborate be built in a week? 272 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:46,000 But whether it's a single week or 25 years, we can't explain how humans alone could have achieved this. 273 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:48,000 And so the question must be asked. 274 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:59,000 Where is this knowledge coming from? Where this technology is coming from to create structures like this that our engineers would have problems recreating today? 275 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:06,000 This is the question we face. Are these gods extraterrestrial? 276 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:18,000 The reality is there's no way that that kind of technology and that size of a labor force could have moved that much material out of the area to create the Kalasa temple in that period of time. 277 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,000 It simply is not something that could have happened. 278 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:30,000 That indicates there's been some sort of alternative technology used to actually carve the temple itself from the sky down out of solid rock. 279 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:51,000 We possibly had a visitation in ancient times from a very advanced culture with very advanced tools. 280 00:36:52,000 --> 00:37:00,000 Most likely AI or advanced technology and we then began to worship them and deify them when in true reality they were just advanced beings with advanced technology. 281 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:14,000 For evidence as to how exactly the temple may have been constructed, UFO researchers turned to ancient Hindu texts that speak of the god worshipped at the Kalasa temple, Lord Shiva, the great destroyer. 282 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,000 And what they learned can only be described as shocking. 283 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,000 Coming up. 284 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:28,000 The evidence points advanced ET beings that had laser guided instruments to cut this mountain up and turn it into a temple. 285 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:36,000 Is it possible that Shiva was a real flesh and blood being, came here from another world and wielded these incredible technologies? 286 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:51,000 Carved out of a single massive piece of volcanic rock, the magnificent Kalasa temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. 287 00:37:52,000 --> 00:38:03,000 Although mainstream scholars contend monks using prehistoric tools carved this shrine out of stone in 25 years, ancient legend says it was built in just one week. 288 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,000 But how in the world could this be possible? 289 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:13,000 Did the Hindus know more about the world and the way it worked than we do today? 290 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,000 What can we learn from the reverence for this god Shiva? 291 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:27,000 According to the ancient Indian texts of the Mahabharata, Shiva is known as the great destroyer and one of the most important gods in the Hindu pantheon. 292 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:36,000 When you look at the 4,000 year old texts, they describe Shiva as an incredibly powerful being that had access to what we would describe today as modern technologies. 293 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:44,000 Flying machines, destructive rays and weapons that were used against other gods in battles in the sky. 294 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:52,000 In Hinduism, Shiva's gender is androgynous and often depicted as being male or female. 295 00:38:53,000 --> 00:39:05,000 Shiva is also portrayed with multiple arms to express the deity's superhuman power and one thing is certain, these traits attributed to Shiva can only be described as otherworldly. 296 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:17,000 If we look at the Mahabharata, we are told that these gods would fight with one another. 297 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:24,000 They would have wives. They would consort with the natives, if you will. They interacted with their creation. 298 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:31,000 We see this in other stories about the Greek gods. So this is crucial, terrible weaponry. 299 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:41,000 Immortal? Yes. Human-like? And their foibles? Yes. This is what we are dealing with when we look at the Hindu god Shiva. 300 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:59,000 Shiva was a being of incredible powers and talent. Now when you look at what was created at Kalisa, what you see is the type of technology that Shiva is described as wielding right there in a temple that, guess what, is dedicated to Shiva. 301 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:13,000 And you have to ask yourself, is it possible that Shiva was a real flesh and blood being who came here to earth from another world and wielded these incredible technologies? 302 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:29,000 When you look at this megalithic structure, the evidence points to the fact that the people of the area had helped from advanced ET beings in ancient times that had what we would call supernatural technology that used laser-guided instruments to cut this mountain up and turn it into a temple. 303 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:54,000 Does the evidence found at sacred sites like the Kalasa temple, sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi, Watra Damakaya, Mecca and Temple Mount suggest that early man may have had contact with an extraterrestrial intelligence and might reason UFO activity at such sites reflect a continuous alien connection? 304 00:40:55,000 --> 00:41:03,000 In modern times we call them UFOs. Maybe these are the same exact objects that have been showing up for thousands of years. 305 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:19,000 If you look at all these sacred sites and the fact that they're all connected to the gods in various different ways, either through the construction themselves or through the scriptures, it makes complete sense that extraterrestrials would visit and be sited over these particular sacred sites. 306 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:41,000 All of these stories that we have heard about all have this in common. Beings from above come down to us with wisdom, with compassion, showing us a new way to live. We could use that knowledge today and we ignore it at our peril. 307 00:41:41,000 --> 00:42:03,000 When Muslim pilgrims encircle the sacred Kaaba or the Jewish faithful pray at the western wall of Temple Mount, are Buddhists meditated at Watra Damakaya? Are they venerating and keeping alive a connection to the ancient time? A time when other worldly beings may have come down from the sky and walked among us?
