ANCIENT MYSTERIES • BY WILLIAM B. STOECKER A


number of writers and researchers have suspected for years that the Great Pyramid at Giza and other an- cient structures around the world may actually be machines, representing a technology so foreign to our own that most people do not recognize it. The Great Pyr- amid is constructed with uncanny precision and has ascending and descending passages, a bizarrely shaped “Grand Gallery,” a “King’s Chamber” containing a “sarcophagus” with no body, and a “Queen’s Chamber.” At least four shafts lead from the chambers, and en- gineer Rudolf Gantenbrink, beginning in 1993, sent remotely controlled vehicles into some of the shafts, discovering stone doors with metal fittings and a space beyond at least one of these.


The shafts from the Queen’s Chamber seem to point at Sirius (south) and Beta in Ursa Major (north). The King’s Chamber shafts seem to point toward Orion’s Belt and Thuban in the constellation Draco. Most of the structure appears to be of relatively soft limestone, with the remnants of a hard limestone facing on the outside cut and fitted with extraordinary precision. The Queen’s Chamber has a granite floor, and the upper part of the Grand Gallery and all of the King’s Chamber is composed of pink granite, including the flat ceiling. The Queen’s Chamber has a gabled lime- stone ceiling. Above the ceiling in the King’s Chamber are a se- ries of massive, angled blocks and “relieving chambers,” sup- posedly to prevent the weight of the stone above from col- lapsing the chamber. Engineer Christopher Dunn and others have pointed out the absurdity of this explanation and also noted that no such chambers are above the lower Queen’s Chamber, which has to sup- port even more weight.


The Great Pyramid is part of the larger Giza complex, in- cluding two other large pyra- mids, three small ones, the Sphinx, a raised causeway, two mortuary temples, the Sphinx Temple, and the Valley Temple along with numerous smaller structures. It was long ru- mored and is now proven that there are several man-made tunnels and chambers under the limestone Giza Plateau, and these connect to what ap- pears to be a natural cavern system, now filled with water. Conventional archaeologists estimate that the Great Pyr-

amid was built between 4580 and 4560 BP (before the present), and this may be correct. The apparent stellar alignments would seem to rule out a very much greater age, and the remaining limestone facing blocks on the pyramids show no sign of water erosion. Of course, these blocks may have replaced ear- lier ones. However, erosion indicates that the Sphinx and the temples are almost certainly much, much older, dating back to 8,000 BP or much earlier.


There have long been stories, unproven, of apparitions within the pyramid and of a powerful electric charge at the top, which might indicate that the structure still has some kind of power. Remember that this structure has been repeatedly damaged. It once was topped by a “benben stone” of un- known composition; most of the facing stones were stripped off to build modern Cairo; A Muslim Caliph in AD 820 dug into the structure; and an Englishman, Howard- Vyse, used explosives to blast his way into the “relieving chambers.” So, if it was a machine, it is now a very badly damaged one. Christopher Dunn has studied and meas-


ured the Great Pyramid and other structures in Egypt, bringing his knowledge of ma- chining to bear on the subject. He has ad- vanced the hypothesis that the precisely shaped structure was designed to resonate with our planet, absorbing and collecting the vibrational energies caused by earthquakes, tides, etc., and then, via the piezoelectric ef- fect of quartz crystals in the granite, convert that energy into electricity. This is only a brief outline of his hypothesis.

Pyramids, Crystals and Chi


Could there be another explanation, however, one which would not be incompat- ible with Dunn’s theory? Is it possible, even likely that the Great Pyramid was a multi purpose machine? Mystics and martial artists have long believed that the entire universe is filled with a kind of inexhaustible energy that has been called Chi, Ki, Prana, Kundalini, Vril, and Odic Force, among other names. This mysterious energy seems to be somehow connected with consciousness and can apparently be controlled by the minds of adepts. Mainstream conventional scientists, predictably, tend to ridicule the idea; and, if the chi force is real, it means that much of modern physics is in need of massive and fundamental revi- sion. Actually, there is already much evidence that the stan- dard model of physics is not working. One thing to con- sider is that relativity theory was developed after the Mich- elson-Morley experiment seemed to prove that there was no ether. The ether was thought to be a tenuous sub- stance within which light waves traveled—much as sound waves do—in ordinary matter. Now, relativity theory insists that space is warped by mass, and that this accounts for gravity. But nothingness, by definition, cannot bend. There must be something there to be warped, some sub- stance or structure to space…in other words, an ether. Einstein himself ad- mitted that there had to be an ether for relativity to work. There is good reason, though, to believe that chi is real, and that it may, in fact, be the ether itself, a dynamic ether. Could the ether be com- posed of a matrix along which both transverse waves (electro- magnetic radiation, including visible light) and longitudinal waves travel? The longitudinal waves would thus be a dif- ferent kind of light but, being longitudinal, could also be thought of as a kind of sound
