1
00:00:03,404 --> 00:00:05,444
The symbol of the egg
2
00:00:05,540 --> 00:00:07,670
is a worldwide symbol.
3
00:00:07,775 --> 00:00:09,875
It is more widespread than the cross.
4
00:00:09,978 --> 00:00:12,378
It was something that
contained great power,
5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,650
that could conceivably be released.
6
00:00:15,750 --> 00:00:19,320
It seems to point
to our source of origin.
7
00:00:19,420 --> 00:00:20,690
You have to wonder now,
8
00:00:20,788 --> 00:00:23,018
if we're coming to much
the same conclusion
9
00:00:23,124 --> 00:00:24,924
as was already reached
10
00:00:25,026 --> 00:00:26,626
thousands of years ago.
11
00:00:27,962 --> 00:00:29,662
Where are they getting this information?
12
00:00:31,199 --> 00:00:33,169
Is it coming from extraterrestrials?
13
00:00:34,569 --> 00:00:37,439
Since the dawn of civilization,
14
00:00:37,538 --> 00:00:39,938
mankind has credited its origins
15
00:00:40,041 --> 00:00:44,881
to gods and other
visitors from the stars.
16
00:00:44,979 --> 00:00:49,419
What if it were true?
Did extraterrestrial beings
17
00:00:49,517 --> 00:00:52,787
really help to shape our history?
18
00:00:52,887 --> 00:00:56,017
And if so, might the truth be found
19
00:00:56,124 --> 00:00:58,824
once we decode the Cosmic Egg?

# Ancient Aliens 11x06 #
Decoding The Cosmic Egg
Original Air Date on June 17, 2016
22
00:01:29,023 --> 00:01:33,463
An ancient painting
on a cave wall in Africa.
23
00:01:33,561 --> 00:01:37,901
Ceremonial clay objects
discovered in Sweden.
24
00:01:37,999 --> 00:01:40,729
A mysterious sculpture found in China.
25
00:01:40,835 --> 00:01:44,335
Throughout the ancient world,
26
00:01:44,439 --> 00:01:47,969
there is a symbol that is
more pervasive than any other:
27
00:01:48,076 --> 00:01:50,636
the symbol of the egg.
28
00:01:54,549 --> 00:01:58,349
The egg is one of the most
universal sacred images.
29
00:01:58,453 --> 00:02:00,053
It is more widespread than the cross,
30
00:02:00,154 --> 00:02:02,824
or the star, or the wheel.
31
00:02:02,924 --> 00:02:05,364
It appeals to people in
all corners of the Earth,
32
00:02:05,460 --> 00:02:08,990
and all times, and traditions.
33
00:02:09,097 --> 00:02:12,597
We found stone eggs all over the world.
34
00:02:12,700 --> 00:02:17,370
For example, stone eggs
were found in Egypt.
35
00:02:17,472 --> 00:02:21,972
And even on Easter Island,
a stone egg was found.
36
00:02:22,076 --> 00:02:26,046
So the symbol of egg
is a worldwide symbol.
37
00:02:27,982 --> 00:02:30,322
What's amazing is that the egg,
38
00:02:30,418 --> 00:02:32,748
what we call the egg cosmogony,
39
00:02:32,854 --> 00:02:35,824
is a feature of several cosmogonies.
40
00:02:35,923 --> 00:02:38,923
We have it in the Nordic tradition.
41
00:02:39,026 --> 00:02:40,986
We have it in the
Mediterranean tradition,
42
00:02:41,095 --> 00:02:42,725
not only Greco-Roman,
43
00:02:42,830 --> 00:02:46,930
but Egyptian and also
the Phoenician mythologies.
44
00:02:47,034 --> 00:02:49,074
We also have it in some Middle Eastern,
45
00:02:49,170 --> 00:02:51,800
and even Vedic mythologies.
46
00:02:51,906 --> 00:02:55,636
So these are radically
different cultures.
47
00:02:57,578 --> 00:02:59,548
Is it possible that
there's a common origin
48
00:02:59,647 --> 00:03:01,677
for South American,
49
00:03:01,783 --> 00:03:06,693
Native American, Norse,
and Vedic mythology?
50
00:03:06,788 --> 00:03:08,818
We have no evidence.
51
00:03:08,923 --> 00:03:13,563
So it would be hard to say
where they come from,
52
00:03:13,661 --> 00:03:16,031
and why they all use this image.
53
00:03:17,932 --> 00:03:21,402
Why is it that so many ancient cultures,
54
00:03:21,502 --> 00:03:24,502
separated by thousands of miles,
55
00:03:24,605 --> 00:03:26,765
all use the symbol of the egg?
56
00:03:28,576 --> 00:03:31,706
For one thing, obviously,
it is associated with birth.
57
00:03:31,813 --> 00:03:35,353
Well, birth is a great mystery,
so it's the worship of life.
58
00:03:35,449 --> 00:03:37,919
It is also taken as a symbol of rebirth.
59
00:03:38,019 --> 00:03:40,549
We use it at the Easter time,
in the spring.
60
00:03:42,590 --> 00:03:44,790
The cultures that birthed these stories
61
00:03:44,892 --> 00:03:50,762
recognized something
in the story of birth,
62
00:03:50,865 --> 00:03:54,095
of creation, of fertility,
of reproduction,
63
00:03:54,202 --> 00:03:56,772
that was meaningful for their stories.
64
00:03:59,006 --> 00:04:01,936
While the most obvious
interpretation of the egg is
65
00:04:02,043 --> 00:04:06,753
that it symbolizes fertility and
the natural creation of life,
66
00:04:06,848 --> 00:04:08,578
some researchers question
67
00:04:08,683 --> 00:04:11,353
why there are so many depictions of eggs
68
00:04:11,452 --> 00:04:13,322
found throughout the ancient world
69
00:04:13,421 --> 00:04:16,921
that depict humans emerging from them.
70
00:04:17,024 --> 00:04:19,894
We have these many stories
from around the world
71
00:04:19,994 --> 00:04:24,664
of how life starts
in the form of an egg,
72
00:04:24,765 --> 00:04:26,795
including human life, too,
73
00:04:26,901 --> 00:04:29,401
starting with a sperm and an egg.
74
00:04:29,503 --> 00:04:33,343
But how would ancient
people realize that
75
00:04:33,441 --> 00:04:37,011
humans also have these eggs?
76
00:04:38,913 --> 00:04:40,753
Could ancient people have somehow
77
00:04:40,848 --> 00:04:44,618
had the knowledge that
humans emerge from eggs?
78
00:04:44,719 --> 00:04:47,449
Or might this symbol
have held a less literal,
79
00:04:47,555 --> 00:04:50,955
and more profound, meaning for them...
80
00:04:51,058 --> 00:04:54,858
one that reveals an
extraterrestrial connection?
81
00:04:56,497 --> 00:04:58,957
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest
82
00:04:59,066 --> 00:05:01,296
that the stories connected to the egg
83
00:05:01,402 --> 00:05:03,772
provide undeniable evidence
84
00:05:03,871 --> 00:05:08,771
that this was not simply
a representation of fertility.
85
00:05:08,876 --> 00:05:11,276
Nearly as widespread
as the symbol of the egg
86
00:05:11,379 --> 00:05:15,979
is a concept commonly
known as "The Cosmic Egg."
87
00:05:16,083 --> 00:05:18,923
While the name varies
from culture to culture,
88
00:05:19,020 --> 00:05:22,490
the story is always nearly identical:
89
00:05:22,590 --> 00:05:26,060
that the entire Universe
originated from an Egg.
90
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,330
They're called cosmic eggs,
91
00:05:28,429 --> 00:05:31,399
they're called silver eggs,
they're called magic eggs,
92
00:05:31,499 --> 00:05:33,299
they're called enchanted eggs,
93
00:05:33,401 --> 00:05:35,801
they're-they're called
the-the eggs of the gods.
94
00:05:35,903 --> 00:05:40,843
I mean, all around the world,
there are these creation stories
95
00:05:40,942 --> 00:05:46,412
of the egg breaking open and
the water of life coming out.
96
00:05:46,514 --> 00:05:49,654
In Chinese mythology,
there is, uh, this notion
97
00:05:49,750 --> 00:05:55,020
that the-the universe emerges
out of a primordial chaos.
98
00:05:55,122 --> 00:05:57,722
And this primordial chaos,
99
00:05:57,825 --> 00:06:01,325
in many accounts, is self-contained.
100
00:06:01,429 --> 00:06:03,959
It's like a cosmic egg.
101
00:06:04,065 --> 00:06:06,595
And from this primordial chaos,
102
00:06:06,701 --> 00:06:10,741
which contains everything,
the universe is generated.
103
00:06:10,838 --> 00:06:13,868
And first, it divides into
two principles: Yin and Yang,
104
00:06:13,975 --> 00:06:16,875
and then three, and then 10,000,
105
00:06:16,978 --> 00:06:19,478
basically, ad infinitum.
106
00:06:19,580 --> 00:06:23,480
Hindus have thought about
the expansion of the universe
107
00:06:23,584 --> 00:06:25,354
in the shape of an egg.
108
00:06:25,453 --> 00:06:29,523
"Brahmanda" is a Sanskrit term
composed of two words:
109
00:06:29,623 --> 00:06:31,763
"Brahma" and "Anda."
110
00:06:31,859 --> 00:06:33,729
And "Brahma" means "creator god,"
111
00:06:33,828 --> 00:06:35,588
"Anda" means "egg."
112
00:06:35,696 --> 00:06:37,896
So it is actually "cosmic egg."
113
00:06:39,734 --> 00:06:44,404
Many different ancient cultures
describe a creation myth
114
00:06:44,505 --> 00:06:50,535
in which the universe actually
hatches out of an egg.
115
00:06:52,913 --> 00:06:57,553
It is incredible
to look at the sheer diversity
116
00:06:57,651 --> 00:07:00,691
of different teachings,
that all point back to the idea
117
00:07:00,788 --> 00:07:02,018
that the universe originated
118
00:07:02,123 --> 00:07:06,363
from some sort of primordial centrality.
119
00:07:08,396 --> 00:07:10,526
The story found, in numerous cultures,
120
00:07:10,631 --> 00:07:11,961
of the cosmic egg,
121
00:07:12,066 --> 00:07:13,796
representing a central point
122
00:07:13,901 --> 00:07:15,931
from which the universe exploded,
123
00:07:16,037 --> 00:07:19,437
has led some to ask
if this might actually be
124
00:07:19,540 --> 00:07:25,840
a description of what scientists
today call "The Big Bang."
125
00:07:25,946 --> 00:07:28,706
In 1931, Belgian
astronomer George Lemaitre
126
00:07:28,816 --> 00:07:30,876
proposed that the entire universe
127
00:07:30,985 --> 00:07:34,985
originated in one single point.
128
00:07:35,089 --> 00:07:36,689
He called it the "primeval atom."
129
00:07:36,791 --> 00:07:38,291
This primeval atom,
130
00:07:38,392 --> 00:07:41,292
he also referred to it as a cosmic egg,
131
00:07:41,395 --> 00:07:44,025
that was at the beginning
of all of creation.
132
00:07:49,403 --> 00:07:53,443
The question is: how did our
ancestors know about this?
133
00:07:53,541 --> 00:07:57,781
Was it just a hunch or was
it that they were told?
134
00:07:57,878 --> 00:08:01,778
If somebody told them that means
we're not alone in the universe.
135
00:08:01,882 --> 00:08:02,882
End of story.
136
00:08:04,485 --> 00:08:06,415
You have to wonder now,
137
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,490
if we're coming
to much the same conclusion
138
00:08:09,590 --> 00:08:12,990
as was already reached
thousands of years ago,
139
00:08:13,094 --> 00:08:14,694
in the Sanskrit texts.
140
00:08:14,795 --> 00:08:17,325
Where are they getting this information?
141
00:08:17,431 --> 00:08:19,871
Is it coming from extraterrestrials?
142
00:08:22,703 --> 00:08:24,903
Might the symbol of the Cosmic Egg,
143
00:08:25,005 --> 00:08:28,565
and the creation stories
that go along with it,
144
00:08:28,676 --> 00:08:31,876
reveal that our ancestors
had scientific knowledge
145
00:08:31,979 --> 00:08:34,279
of how the Earth and, in fact,
146
00:08:34,381 --> 00:08:38,281
our entire universe, was created?
147
00:08:38,385 --> 00:08:40,545
And if so, is it possible
148
00:08:40,654 --> 00:08:44,664
that this was taught to them
by extraterrestrial visitors?
149
00:08:46,093 --> 00:08:48,833
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest that,
150
00:08:48,929 --> 00:08:50,999
while this is one possibility,
151
00:08:51,098 --> 00:08:53,768
there may be a more tangible explanation
152
00:08:53,868 --> 00:08:56,838
for the concept of the Cosmic Egg--
153
00:08:56,937 --> 00:09:00,537
one that is connected
directly to the arrival
154
00:09:00,641 --> 00:09:03,081
of extraterrestrial visitors.
155
00:09:06,947 --> 00:09:08,807
Coming up...
156
00:09:08,916 --> 00:09:11,816
They said specifically, these eggs...
157
00:09:11,919 --> 00:09:14,519
they came from out there.
158
00:09:14,622 --> 00:09:16,562
It suggests that extraterrestrials
159
00:09:16,657 --> 00:09:18,657
influenced their civilization.
160
00:09:25,082 --> 00:09:27,222
Mali, West Africa.
161
00:09:28,786 --> 00:09:32,686
Here, hidden within
the Cliff of Bandiagara,
162
00:09:32,790 --> 00:09:37,360
lie hundreds of villages
occupied by the Dogon people.
163
00:09:37,461 --> 00:09:40,601
Believed to be the
descendants of the Egyptians,
164
00:09:40,698 --> 00:09:44,028
archaeologists say
the ancient nomadic tribe
165
00:09:44,134 --> 00:09:47,974
settled in this region around 1000 AD.
166
00:09:49,907 --> 00:09:51,767
Like many other ancient cultures,
167
00:09:51,875 --> 00:09:56,445
the creation story of the Dogon
involves a Cosmic Egg.
168
00:09:58,148 --> 00:10:01,318
In West Africa, the Dogon creation myth
169
00:10:01,418 --> 00:10:05,718
is that the earliest divinity, Amma,
170
00:10:05,823 --> 00:10:09,633
the god of all things,
took the form of an egg,
171
00:10:09,727 --> 00:10:13,027
and this is what unfolded
to become creation.
172
00:10:13,130 --> 00:10:16,370
When the egg opened,
it became a whirlwind
173
00:10:16,467 --> 00:10:19,937
and scattered its contents
in all directions.
174
00:10:22,373 --> 00:10:26,913
This ultimately formed all of
the galaxies and planets.
175
00:10:29,246 --> 00:10:32,376
The Dogon say that
their gods, called the Nommo,
176
00:10:32,483 --> 00:10:35,083
came down to Earth in Cosmic Eggs...
177
00:10:36,754 --> 00:10:38,894
...and when descending from the sky,
178
00:10:38,989 --> 00:10:41,089
they made the ground tremble.
179
00:10:42,326 --> 00:10:43,986
They said specifically--
180
00:10:44,094 --> 00:10:46,664
these eggs, they came from out there.
181
00:10:46,764 --> 00:10:50,004
They came from the vastness of the dark,
182
00:10:50,100 --> 00:10:51,800
the vastness of the cold.
183
00:10:53,303 --> 00:10:56,813
Well, what a more poetic way
to describe space?
184
00:11:00,778 --> 00:11:02,738
The Dogon said that they
185
00:11:02,846 --> 00:11:05,176
originated from the star Sirius B.
186
00:11:05,282 --> 00:11:06,822
What's interesting about that
187
00:11:06,917 --> 00:11:08,947
is that we didn't even discover Sirius B
188
00:11:09,053 --> 00:11:10,623
until 40 years after
189
00:11:10,721 --> 00:11:12,891
the Dogon published
originally, this story,
190
00:11:12,990 --> 00:11:16,260
which is, of course, much more ancient.
191
00:11:18,362 --> 00:11:21,632
It suggests that the Cosmic Egg
is a symbol for the craft
192
00:11:21,732 --> 00:11:24,272
of these extraterrestrials,
who the Dogon said
193
00:11:24,368 --> 00:11:27,998
came to Earth from Sirius and
influenced their civilization.
194
00:11:31,075 --> 00:11:34,635
Could the Dogon have
been given knowledge of Sirius B
195
00:11:34,745 --> 00:11:39,875
by extraterrestrials that came
to Earth in egg-shaped crafts?
196
00:11:42,152 --> 00:11:45,692
Might the Cosmic Egg
not only represent knowledge
197
00:11:45,789 --> 00:11:47,789
of how the universe was formed,
198
00:11:47,891 --> 00:11:50,761
but the actual vehicles
primitive people witnessed
199
00:11:50,861 --> 00:11:52,831
descending from the sky?
200
00:11:55,499 --> 00:11:58,369
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
201
00:11:58,469 --> 00:12:02,039
and suggest there is evidence
that similar craft
202
00:12:02,139 --> 00:12:05,009
have even been witnessed
in modern times.
203
00:12:09,213 --> 00:12:12,653
April 24, 1964.
204
00:12:12,750 --> 00:12:14,320
6:00 p.m.
205
00:12:14,418 --> 00:12:16,378
Socorro, New Mexico.
206
00:12:18,722 --> 00:12:20,622
While chasing a speeding car,
207
00:12:20,724 --> 00:12:23,864
police sergeant Lonnie Zamora
hears a loud roar,
208
00:12:23,961 --> 00:12:28,361
and sees a flame in
the sky, to the southwest.
209
00:12:28,465 --> 00:12:32,165
Thinking a local dynamite
shack might have exploded,
210
00:12:32,269 --> 00:12:36,469
Zamora breaks off
the chase to investigate.
211
00:12:38,375 --> 00:12:39,705
He headed off to where
212
00:12:39,810 --> 00:12:42,110
he thought the explosion had come from.
213
00:12:43,147 --> 00:12:45,277
As he got to the site,
214
00:12:45,382 --> 00:12:47,722
he saw an egg-shaped object,
215
00:12:47,818 --> 00:12:50,818
standing on a tripod leg formation
216
00:12:50,921 --> 00:12:54,761
with two small creatures outside
of it, in white overalls.
217
00:12:56,059 --> 00:12:58,129
According to his account,
218
00:12:58,228 --> 00:13:00,828
as Zamora began to approach on foot,
219
00:13:00,931 --> 00:13:04,871
the creatures quickly jumped
inside the egg-shaped vehicle,
220
00:13:04,968 --> 00:13:08,368
and it lifted off into the sky,
in a column of fire.
221
00:13:10,941 --> 00:13:14,741
Of course, by the time backup
arrived, the object had gone.
222
00:13:16,747 --> 00:13:19,077
But fortunately, the landing marks,
223
00:13:19,183 --> 00:13:23,653
where the craft had come down
were still visible,
224
00:13:23,754 --> 00:13:25,124
clearly demonstrating
225
00:13:25,222 --> 00:13:27,192
that something had touched to the ground
226
00:13:27,291 --> 00:13:29,831
and had left the ground again
and took to the skies.
227
00:13:30,727 --> 00:13:31,987
Within days,
228
00:13:32,095 --> 00:13:34,955
a team of investigators from the FBI,
229
00:13:35,065 --> 00:13:38,665
the Air Force and the nearby
White Sands Missile Range
230
00:13:38,769 --> 00:13:41,799
examined the site.
231
00:13:41,905 --> 00:13:43,965
As soon as the media
picked up the story,
232
00:13:44,074 --> 00:13:48,414
more witnesses came forward
with similar descriptions.
233
00:13:49,012 --> 00:13:52,482
It made headlines around the
world, because J. Allen Hynek,
234
00:13:52,582 --> 00:13:56,582
who was then head
of The Center for UFO Studies,
235
00:13:56,686 --> 00:13:58,186
and who had been working
for the Air Force
236
00:13:58,288 --> 00:14:02,418
on the study of UFO investigations...
237
00:14:02,525 --> 00:14:04,725
he got in touch with Lonnie Zamora,
238
00:14:04,828 --> 00:14:08,428
and arranged to come to the ground.
239
00:14:08,531 --> 00:14:11,601
Dr. J. Allen Hynek was
very much a skeptic of
240
00:14:11,701 --> 00:14:15,601
the UFO phenomenon
and arguably, in some cases,
241
00:14:15,705 --> 00:14:17,635
even a debunker of the phenomenon.
242
00:14:17,741 --> 00:14:21,641
To a great degree,
that changed when he looked into
243
00:14:21,745 --> 00:14:26,605
the Zamora case and, ironically,
he ultimately swung around
244
00:14:26,716 --> 00:14:29,716
and became a full-on
believer in the UFO phenomenon.
245
00:14:30,319 --> 00:14:32,549
The incident immediately became
246
00:14:32,655 --> 00:14:34,715
a part of Project Blue Book,
247
00:14:34,824 --> 00:14:39,564
a special Air Force operation
that began in 1952,
248
00:14:39,662 --> 00:14:42,502
to catalogue
and investigate the sightings
249
00:14:42,599 --> 00:14:44,869
of unidentified flying objects.
250
00:14:46,569 --> 00:14:49,499
Although publicly,
Project Blue Book downplayed
251
00:14:49,606 --> 00:14:51,636
the entire UFO phenomenon,
252
00:14:51,741 --> 00:14:54,181
and certainly
the Zamora case in particular,
253
00:14:54,277 --> 00:14:55,637
behind the scenes,
254
00:14:55,745 --> 00:14:58,675
something very, very different
was going on.
255
00:14:58,782 --> 00:15:00,722
Major Hector Quintanilla,
256
00:15:00,817 --> 00:15:03,477
the boss of Project Blue Book
at the time,
257
00:15:03,586 --> 00:15:07,616
prepared a secret memo
for the attention of the CIA,
258
00:15:07,724 --> 00:15:11,294
and essentially,
the memo said there was no doubt
259
00:15:11,394 --> 00:15:13,564
that Zamora had seen something unusual;
260
00:15:13,663 --> 00:15:18,273
something from somewhere else
had touched down on our planet.
261
00:15:18,368 --> 00:15:20,498
We have a shiny metallic object
262
00:15:20,603 --> 00:15:21,703
in the shape of an egg.
263
00:15:21,805 --> 00:15:23,835
There are multiple eyewitnesses
264
00:15:23,940 --> 00:15:26,610
that actually say they
saw this and there are
265
00:15:26,709 --> 00:15:31,249
hundreds of witnesses
who heard this roaring sound.
266
00:15:31,347 --> 00:15:33,407
We have landing traces.
267
00:15:33,516 --> 00:15:35,746
There's so much evidence,
it's unbelievable.
268
00:15:39,222 --> 00:15:42,562
Could Sergeant Zamora
have had a similar encounter
269
00:15:42,659 --> 00:15:45,989
to what the Dogon say
their ancestors witnessed,
270
00:15:46,095 --> 00:15:49,025
thousands of years ago?
271
00:15:49,132 --> 00:15:53,232
And if so, might this mean
that the Cosmic Egg
272
00:15:53,336 --> 00:15:57,306
represented not just the
beginning of the universe,
273
00:15:57,407 --> 00:16:00,537
but also the craft used by the beings
274
00:16:00,643 --> 00:16:03,513
that gave our ancestors this knowledge?
275
00:16:04,614 --> 00:16:07,154
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest
276
00:16:07,350 --> 00:16:11,250
there is even more to the
meaning of this universal icon,
277
00:16:11,354 --> 00:16:15,994
and that additional clues can be
found by examining a stone egg
278
00:16:16,092 --> 00:16:19,362
that bears another mysterious symbol.
279
00:16:20,764 --> 00:16:22,404
Coming up...
280
00:16:22,499 --> 00:16:23,499
If you looked through
281
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,000
the hole in these stones,
282
00:16:25,102 --> 00:16:27,872
you would be able to see
supernatural creatures.
283
00:16:27,971 --> 00:16:30,371
What if this Druid stone
284
00:16:30,474 --> 00:16:33,144
was an extraterrestrial type of device?
285
00:16:39,331 --> 00:16:41,271
Silves, Portugal.
286
00:16:41,367 --> 00:16:44,497
1984.
287
00:16:44,603 --> 00:16:47,173
Farmers digging a well for agriculture,
288
00:16:47,273 --> 00:16:49,873
on land overlooking the ancient harbor,
289
00:16:49,975 --> 00:16:56,145
come across a mysterious object
15 feet beneath the Earth--
290
00:16:56,248 --> 00:16:59,478
a six-foot-long limestone egg
with a mysterious design,
291
00:16:59,585 --> 00:17:04,215
protruding from its surface
in three places.
292
00:17:04,323 --> 00:17:08,263
The egg has been dated
to at least 3,500 BC,
293
00:17:08,360 --> 00:17:12,500
and scientists conclude
it could be even older.
294
00:17:16,602 --> 00:17:21,002
Today, the Algarve Egg is on
display in the Lagos Museum,
295
00:17:21,106 --> 00:17:24,936
19 miles from where it was discovered.
296
00:17:25,044 --> 00:17:28,784
Author Peter Daughtrey has
studied the egg meticulously,
297
00:17:28,881 --> 00:17:31,521
in an attempt to discover the story
298
00:17:31,617 --> 00:17:35,847
behind this mysterious stone artifact.
299
00:17:35,955 --> 00:17:39,885
How does this museum
classify this stone?
300
00:17:39,992 --> 00:17:43,262
They classify it as a menhir,
a standing stone,
301
00:17:43,362 --> 00:17:48,232
which there are many all the way
up the west coast of Portugal;
302
00:17:48,334 --> 00:17:51,804
France, Brittany and into
the Gaelic countries,
303
00:17:51,904 --> 00:17:54,444
Ireland, Wales, Scotland.
304
00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:57,810
Most of them are just big lumps of stone
305
00:17:57,910 --> 00:17:59,510
that have been dug up and-and erected
306
00:17:59,612 --> 00:18:01,252
with a little bit of shaping.
307
00:18:01,347 --> 00:18:04,147
As you can see,
this is a lot more than just
308
00:18:04,250 --> 00:18:05,550
a simple stone that's been dug up.
309
00:18:05,651 --> 00:18:07,251
It's-it's really a piece of sculpture,
310
00:18:07,353 --> 00:18:09,223
or was a piece of sculpture.
311
00:18:09,321 --> 00:18:10,521
Which is very interesting
312
00:18:10,623 --> 00:18:13,323
to see these different eggs
313
00:18:13,425 --> 00:18:17,155
or these navels or omphalos,
from all around the world--
314
00:18:17,263 --> 00:18:18,403
Symbols of creation.
315
00:18:18,497 --> 00:18:19,957
Mm-hmm. Exactly.
316
00:18:20,065 --> 00:18:21,155
Everybody, every race has one.
317
00:18:21,267 --> 00:18:23,067
There is... there's an interesting,
318
00:18:23,168 --> 00:18:24,938
old legend, a Slavic legend,
319
00:18:25,037 --> 00:18:27,767
from areas like Bosnia and Yugoslavia,
320
00:18:27,873 --> 00:18:31,443
which says that they
originally came from a,
321
00:18:31,544 --> 00:18:34,444
a land in the western ocean, which sank.
322
00:18:34,547 --> 00:18:36,347
Interesting.
323
00:18:36,448 --> 00:18:39,048
And the center of
their religion on the island
324
00:18:39,151 --> 00:18:42,051
was a large white egg; stone egg.
325
00:18:42,154 --> 00:18:43,094
This was white.
326
00:18:43,188 --> 00:18:44,318
You can see it's been buried,
327
00:18:44,423 --> 00:18:45,993
it's got the earth discoloring it,
328
00:18:46,091 --> 00:18:47,861
but it's sand-- white sandstone.
329
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,930
We're talking of something
that's-that's incredibly old.
330
00:18:51,030 --> 00:18:53,330
And this thing, up the middle here,
331
00:18:53,432 --> 00:18:56,202
all the, uh, resemble the rod,
332
00:18:56,302 --> 00:18:57,772
which throughout history,
333
00:18:57,870 --> 00:19:02,770
has been a symbol of power
and of creation.
334
00:19:02,875 --> 00:19:04,905
Moses had a rod.
335
00:19:05,010 --> 00:19:07,810
And in Mesopotamia, the rod was regarded
336
00:19:07,913 --> 00:19:10,253
as the symbol of the power of the gods.
337
00:19:10,349 --> 00:19:12,079
If you look at this,
338
00:19:12,184 --> 00:19:16,524
this could be referred to
as the origin of that staff
339
00:19:16,622 --> 00:19:19,892
that is used in medicine
with the snake around it.
340
00:19:22,261 --> 00:19:26,201
In Greek mythology,
Asclepius, the god of medicine,
341
00:19:26,298 --> 00:19:29,398
is always depicted with
a serpent-entwined rod.
342
00:19:31,670 --> 00:19:33,800
And the Greek caduceus,
343
00:19:33,906 --> 00:19:36,966
a staff carried by
the messenger god Hermes,
344
00:19:37,076 --> 00:19:40,236
consists of two serpents intertwined,
345
00:19:40,346 --> 00:19:44,106
closely resembling the
design on the Algarve Egg.
346
00:19:46,318 --> 00:19:50,448
While the snake and egg are both
considered fertility symbols,
347
00:19:50,556 --> 00:19:53,116
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest
348
00:19:53,225 --> 00:19:56,625
that the combination of the two
may hold another meaning.
349
00:19:58,497 --> 00:20:02,697
They believe it may represent
extraterrestrial technology...
350
00:20:06,138 --> 00:20:09,068
...and as evidence,
point to the Druid's Egg,
351
00:20:09,174 --> 00:20:11,384
or "snake stone."
352
00:20:15,014 --> 00:20:18,024
Druid eggs are oval or roundish stones,
353
00:20:18,117 --> 00:20:22,317
often made of a calcinatious
material, like this.
354
00:20:25,024 --> 00:20:26,964
According to Pliny the Elder,
355
00:20:27,059 --> 00:20:30,859
these druid eggs were
used to cure illness,
356
00:20:30,963 --> 00:20:34,533
and if you looked through
the hole in these stones,
357
00:20:34,633 --> 00:20:38,203
you would be able to see
supernatural creatures.
358
00:20:38,303 --> 00:20:40,573
Are we really just talking about
359
00:20:40,673 --> 00:20:44,513
a magical stone with magical properties?
360
00:20:44,610 --> 00:20:50,110
Or were these magical properties
actually rooted in reality?
361
00:20:50,215 --> 00:20:53,875
What if this Druid stone
was not necessarily
362
00:20:53,986 --> 00:20:56,246
just a ritual object,
363
00:20:56,355 --> 00:21:00,655
but that originally it was an
extraterrestrial type of device?
364
00:21:03,328 --> 00:21:04,828
Might the Druid's Egg
365
00:21:04,930 --> 00:21:09,230
have actually held otherworldly powers?
366
00:21:09,334 --> 00:21:11,574
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest
367
00:21:11,670 --> 00:21:13,340
further clues can be found
368
00:21:13,439 --> 00:21:16,169
by examining another egg-shaped object
369
00:21:16,275 --> 00:21:20,575
that was said to connect humans
directly to the gods.
370
00:21:25,317 --> 00:21:28,117
Delphi, Greece.
371
00:21:28,220 --> 00:21:32,060
Standing in the center
of this archaeological complex
372
00:21:32,157 --> 00:21:36,457
is a stone artifact
known as an omphalos.
373
00:21:36,562 --> 00:21:38,362
The omphalos is carved with a pattern
374
00:21:38,464 --> 00:21:42,574
not unlike that found
on the Algarve Egg,
375
00:21:42,668 --> 00:21:46,438
only these lines
criss-cross the entire stone.
376
00:21:48,941 --> 00:21:51,241
It is thought to be
an ancient reproduction
377
00:21:51,343 --> 00:21:53,183
of the original omphalos that,
378
00:21:53,278 --> 00:21:56,608
according to the Greeks,
marked the "navel of the Earth."
379
00:22:00,452 --> 00:22:02,922
This here is a small-scale replica
380
00:22:03,021 --> 00:22:06,061
of the omphalos of the oracle in Delphi.
381
00:22:07,559 --> 00:22:10,359
It has these bizarre strands
on them, intertwining,
382
00:22:10,462 --> 00:22:13,762
and, in fact, the plaque at the place
383
00:22:13,866 --> 00:22:15,396
where this thing is located--
384
00:22:15,501 --> 00:22:20,541
it actually says that
this object fell from the sky,
385
00:22:20,639 --> 00:22:25,439
and afterwards, because of Zeus,
life began on Earth.
386
00:22:32,317 --> 00:22:34,017
According to Greek mythology,
387
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,389
the celestial stone enabled
388
00:22:36,488 --> 00:22:40,518
direct communication with the gods.
389
00:22:40,626 --> 00:22:44,356
The Delphic tradition was
something like channeling.
390
00:22:44,463 --> 00:22:46,963
An oracle, a human being, a high priest,
391
00:22:47,065 --> 00:22:48,325
but still, a person,
392
00:22:48,433 --> 00:22:51,503
could receive the wisdom
directly from a god.
393
00:22:53,305 --> 00:22:55,465
And at the center of
this strange tradition
394
00:22:55,574 --> 00:22:59,014
was the omphalos egg.
395
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,510
So you have to ask,
what was going on here?
396
00:23:03,615 --> 00:23:06,245
Why was the cosmic egg so important
397
00:23:06,351 --> 00:23:08,191
to these priestesses?
398
00:23:08,287 --> 00:23:11,247
And were they able to somehow use it
399
00:23:11,356 --> 00:23:14,386
as some technological device
400
00:23:14,493 --> 00:23:18,093
to stimulate their, their brains to,
401
00:23:18,197 --> 00:23:20,197
to make these predictions?
402
00:23:25,204 --> 00:23:28,104
Could the omphalos,
like the Druid's Egg,
403
00:23:28,207 --> 00:23:30,967
have been a technological
device that connected humans
404
00:23:31,076 --> 00:23:34,846
with otherworldly beings?
405
00:23:34,947 --> 00:23:38,517
And might these ancient stories
associated with the Cosmic Egg
406
00:23:38,617 --> 00:23:41,317
still hold a message today--
407
00:23:41,420 --> 00:23:43,520
that within us lies a connection
408
00:23:43,622 --> 00:23:46,362
to greater powers in the universe?
409
00:23:48,193 --> 00:23:51,803
Perhaps further clues can be
found by taking another look
410
00:23:51,897 --> 00:23:55,027
at the symbol on the Algarve Egg,
411
00:23:55,133 --> 00:23:57,133
and how it might be connected
412
00:23:57,236 --> 00:24:01,606
to a biological structure that
lies within the human body.
413
00:24:04,176 --> 00:24:05,536
Coming up...
414
00:24:05,644 --> 00:24:06,884
Here's something that's supposedly
415
00:24:06,979 --> 00:24:08,949
5,000 years old,
416
00:24:09,047 --> 00:24:11,277
and it has a double helix on it.
417
00:24:11,383 --> 00:24:12,953
That can be translated
418
00:24:13,051 --> 00:24:16,021
into one single word: seeding.
419
00:24:16,121 --> 00:24:18,121
The seeding of a planet.
420
00:24:22,769 --> 00:24:24,799
Almaty, Kazakhstan.
421
00:24:24,905 --> 00:24:27,965
May, 2013.
422
00:24:28,041 --> 00:24:30,281
Writing in the journal Icarus,
423
00:24:30,377 --> 00:24:34,507
scientists Vladimir Shcherbak
and Maxim Makukov
424
00:24:34,581 --> 00:24:36,551
make a shocking proposal:
425
00:24:36,650 --> 00:24:38,520
that there is an intelligent code
426
00:24:38,585 --> 00:24:42,845
that can be found in our own DNA.
427
00:24:42,956 --> 00:24:46,956
They concluded that
there was a certain amount
428
00:24:47,060 --> 00:24:49,360
of mathematical precision and...
429
00:24:49,462 --> 00:24:55,032
and what's known as digital
checking built into our DNA,
430
00:24:55,135 --> 00:24:57,335
like computer codes have--
431
00:24:57,404 --> 00:25:01,374
checking codes to make sure that
all the other codes are right.
432
00:25:01,474 --> 00:25:04,314
We now know that DNA's genetic code
433
00:25:04,411 --> 00:25:07,951
is an elegant language composed
of billions of characters,
434
00:25:08,048 --> 00:25:12,348
perfectly ordered, much like
computer machine language.
435
00:25:12,419 --> 00:25:15,549
But it is so complex, and so precise,
436
00:25:15,655 --> 00:25:20,525
that geneticists still don't
know where DNA came from.
437
00:25:20,594 --> 00:25:23,834
The two scientists claim
their research supports
438
00:25:23,930 --> 00:25:27,000
a controversial theory about
the origin of DNA
439
00:25:27,067 --> 00:25:30,437
that was first suggested
by Francis Crick,
440
00:25:30,537 --> 00:25:32,637
one of the two men responsible
441
00:25:32,706 --> 00:25:37,076
for discovering the structure
of the DNA molecule in 1953.
442
00:25:38,778 --> 00:25:41,478
In the article,
they went on to propose that
443
00:25:41,581 --> 00:25:44,451
our DNA didn't come from Earth.
444
00:25:44,517 --> 00:25:48,747
Their theory is cited as
evidence of Panspermia,
445
00:25:48,855 --> 00:25:52,315
or the idea that we were,
in fact, seeded from the stars.
446
00:25:52,425 --> 00:25:55,885
The basic premise of Directed Panspermia
447
00:25:55,996 --> 00:25:59,496
is that the building blocks
of life were sent to Earth
448
00:25:59,599 --> 00:26:02,729
by an advanced civilization
in the distant past.
449
00:26:02,802 --> 00:26:05,802
And ancient astronaut theorists suggest
450
00:26:05,905 --> 00:26:08,665
this may be part of
the message contained
451
00:26:08,775 --> 00:26:12,635
within the stories of the Cosmic Egg.
452
00:26:12,712 --> 00:26:17,322
All around the world, there
are stories of glowing eggs
453
00:26:17,417 --> 00:26:23,017
descending from the sky,
and out of which life began.
454
00:26:23,089 --> 00:26:27,329
And that can be translated
into one single word: seeding.
455
00:26:27,427 --> 00:26:29,627
The seeding of a planet.
456
00:26:31,364 --> 00:26:33,004
When we look at the Algarve egg,
457
00:26:33,099 --> 00:26:35,669
these intertwined snakes
458
00:26:35,735 --> 00:26:40,735
can also be interpreted as DNA strands.
459
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,970
Here's something that's supposedly
460
00:26:43,076 --> 00:26:47,776
5,000 years old,
and it has a double helix on it.
461
00:26:47,881 --> 00:26:51,981
It seems to be symbolizing,
somehow, this cosmic egg,
462
00:26:52,085 --> 00:26:55,445
this cosmic creation that, that is...
463
00:26:55,555 --> 00:26:59,715
where all life and,
and humanity all started.
464
00:27:01,094 --> 00:27:03,364
Is it possible that the design found
465
00:27:03,463 --> 00:27:08,303
on the Algarve Egg represents
the structure of DNA?
466
00:27:08,401 --> 00:27:11,301
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
467
00:27:11,404 --> 00:27:14,974
and suggest that this
genetic symbol can be found
468
00:27:15,075 --> 00:27:17,835
throughout the ancient world.
469
00:27:19,646 --> 00:27:21,876
The DNA spiral is shown
470
00:27:21,948 --> 00:27:26,578
on different antique rocks and stelaes.
471
00:27:26,686 --> 00:27:29,986
Just, for example, look at
the Sumerian cylinder seals.
472
00:27:30,090 --> 00:27:35,290
There you see DNA spirals
between the gods,
473
00:27:35,395 --> 00:27:38,855
the same as some Sumerian stelaes.
474
00:27:38,965 --> 00:27:45,735
There you see so-called flying
geniuses or winged geniuses.
475
00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:48,769
Between these winged geniuses
476
00:27:48,875 --> 00:27:52,735
is something which archeology
calls the tree of life.
477
00:27:52,846 --> 00:27:54,946
But if you look at the tree of life
478
00:27:55,048 --> 00:27:59,548
it's in reality a DNA spiral.
479
00:27:59,652 --> 00:28:02,552
The two winged geniuses are working.
480
00:28:02,655 --> 00:28:06,885
They are changing out
information of the DNA,
481
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,630
and replace it...
482
00:28:09,696 --> 00:28:11,996
by another information.
483
00:28:12,065 --> 00:28:14,225
The situation is absolutely clear,
484
00:28:14,334 --> 00:28:18,244
you just have to look at it
with today's eyes.
485
00:28:18,338 --> 00:28:22,438
It would seem that
this serpent and egg energy
486
00:28:22,509 --> 00:28:27,549
have to do with our sperm and eggs,
487
00:28:27,614 --> 00:28:32,824
and the DNA helix which
is intertwined serpents.
488
00:28:32,886 --> 00:28:38,256
So how would ancient
people know about this?
489
00:28:38,358 --> 00:28:40,688
Did it come from extraterrestrials?
490
00:28:42,529 --> 00:28:45,699
The Cosmic Egg,
the entwined serpents, DNA,
491
00:28:45,799 --> 00:28:48,269
are all ultimately representative
492
00:28:48,334 --> 00:28:50,774
of the symbols of humanity itself,
493
00:28:50,870 --> 00:28:54,470
and the creation of humanity
by extraterrestrial beings.
494
00:28:55,541 --> 00:28:57,741
One place where we can
see this in action
495
00:28:57,811 --> 00:29:00,781
is with the Archangel Gabriel,
496
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:05,520
who wields a caduceus wand
at the Annunciation scenes
497
00:29:05,618 --> 00:29:08,348
in which Gabriel
appears to the Virgin Mary
498
00:29:08,454 --> 00:29:11,894
and announces that she
will bear the Christ Child.
499
00:29:11,991 --> 00:29:15,331
This is suggestive of
genetic manipulation
500
00:29:15,428 --> 00:29:18,958
with the caduceus being the
symbol of a group of god beings,
501
00:29:19,065 --> 00:29:23,725
angelic beings who had a hand
in manipulating human affairs.
502
00:29:26,105 --> 00:29:29,635
Could the mysterious
symbol found on the Algarve Egg
503
00:29:29,742 --> 00:29:32,742
have been left as a clue
that we are the product
504
00:29:32,812 --> 00:29:36,712
of genetic manipulation
by extraterrestrials?
505
00:29:36,816 --> 00:29:38,576
Might this explain why there are
506
00:29:38,651 --> 00:29:42,091
historical depictions of
humans hatching from eggs?
507
00:29:43,423 --> 00:29:46,623
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
508
00:29:46,726 --> 00:29:48,156
but propose that the story
509
00:29:48,261 --> 00:29:51,761
of the Cosmic Egg
has yet another chapter,
510
00:29:51,831 --> 00:29:54,971
one that can only be
understood by examining
511
00:29:55,068 --> 00:29:59,638
a biological structure that may
play the most important role
512
00:29:59,705 --> 00:30:02,705
in what it means to be human.
513
00:30:05,744 --> 00:30:07,014
Coming up...
514
00:30:07,113 --> 00:30:08,653
You wonder was it in fact a gift
515
00:30:08,748 --> 00:30:11,778
from extraterrestrial beings
that awakened us?
516
00:30:11,885 --> 00:30:14,815
Our creators have designed a tool
517
00:30:14,921 --> 00:30:18,221
to help us become greater
than we are today.
518
00:30:22,954 --> 00:30:25,724
Throughout the world,
there are ancient traditions
519
00:30:25,823 --> 00:30:28,223
that identify the center of the head
520
00:30:28,326 --> 00:30:32,626
as being synonymous with
the center of the Earth...
521
00:30:32,730 --> 00:30:35,630
the center of the universe...
522
00:30:35,733 --> 00:30:39,373
and the very center of creation itself.
523
00:30:39,470 --> 00:30:42,810
This center is often
depicted as egg-shaped,
524
00:30:42,907 --> 00:30:47,907
and is identified in some
cultures as the third eye.
525
00:30:50,148 --> 00:30:51,808
There are multiple cultures
526
00:30:51,916 --> 00:30:54,616
that point us in this same direction.
527
00:30:54,719 --> 00:30:58,089
The Hindus have it
as the third eye, or the bindi.
528
00:30:58,189 --> 00:31:02,289
The Buddhists have the third
eye on Buddha's forehead.
529
00:31:02,393 --> 00:31:06,833
We see symbology in Mesoamerica
which seems to symbolize
530
00:31:06,931 --> 00:31:09,131
the ability to contact and communicate
531
00:31:09,233 --> 00:31:11,333
with the higher spiritual realms,
532
00:31:11,436 --> 00:31:15,866
using this secret symbol
that is consistent
533
00:31:15,973 --> 00:31:17,413
throughout all
the major world religions.
534
00:31:19,277 --> 00:31:23,947
When you talk about the third
eye, it's about enlightenment.
535
00:31:24,048 --> 00:31:26,678
It's about this connection
to the great unknown
536
00:31:26,784 --> 00:31:30,324
or the force of the universe.
537
00:31:32,023 --> 00:31:33,923
We think that we are
separated from the world,
538
00:31:34,025 --> 00:31:36,225
when in reality, we are all connected
539
00:31:36,327 --> 00:31:38,927
to every single object
in the universe...
540
00:31:39,030 --> 00:31:43,130
and that inherently means that
we are directly connected to
541
00:31:43,234 --> 00:31:46,704
every extraterrestrial being
throughout the entire universe.
542
00:31:50,842 --> 00:31:53,912
Is it possible
that the Cosmic Egg isn't only
543
00:31:54,011 --> 00:31:58,081
a symbol for the universe,
or how the universe was formed,
544
00:31:58,182 --> 00:32:01,922
but represents a connection
that exists within
545
00:32:02,019 --> 00:32:04,589
each and every human to the cosmos?
546
00:32:04,689 --> 00:32:08,559
And possibly to extraterrestrial beings
547
00:32:08,659 --> 00:32:11,959
that came to Earth in the distant past?
548
00:32:12,063 --> 00:32:14,933
Ancient astronaut theorists
point out that,
549
00:32:15,032 --> 00:32:17,032
while the third eye has historically
550
00:32:17,135 --> 00:32:21,095
been considered a metaphor,
there is an egg-shaped structure
551
00:32:21,205 --> 00:32:24,135
within the brain
that is critical in defining
552
00:32:24,242 --> 00:32:28,942
what it means to be human: the thalamus.
553
00:32:30,181 --> 00:32:32,821
Shaped like two identical eggs,
554
00:32:32,917 --> 00:32:35,747
the thalamus lies
at the center of the brain
555
00:32:35,853 --> 00:32:39,193
and is the hub responsible
for relaying information
556
00:32:39,290 --> 00:32:42,220
from most of the sensory receptors.
557
00:32:42,326 --> 00:32:47,596
Scientists studying the effects
of thalamic stimulation
558
00:32:47,698 --> 00:32:49,828
on comatose patients have
recently suggested
559
00:32:49,934 --> 00:32:52,804
the thalamus might be
the most important factor
560
00:32:52,904 --> 00:32:55,744
in human consciousness.
561
00:32:57,341 --> 00:32:58,611
The thalamus is like
562
00:32:58,709 --> 00:33:00,309
a relay station in the brain,
563
00:33:00,411 --> 00:33:03,981
so you have all the primary
sensory information coming in,
564
00:33:04,081 --> 00:33:06,551
like information coming in your eyes
565
00:33:06,651 --> 00:33:08,551
through your retina
and through your ears
566
00:33:08,653 --> 00:33:10,053
and all these sensations.
567
00:33:10,154 --> 00:33:13,764
The first place they go,
after the primary sense organs,
568
00:33:13,858 --> 00:33:16,088
is they get funneled to the thalamus.
569
00:33:16,194 --> 00:33:18,794
And then the thalamus
sorts out this information
570
00:33:18,896 --> 00:33:21,956
and relays it to the various
parts in the cortex
571
00:33:22,066 --> 00:33:26,436
that process that
primary sensory information.
572
00:33:27,805 --> 00:33:29,335
If the thalamus is damaged,
573
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:33,880
usually it will knock out consciousness.
574
00:33:33,978 --> 00:33:36,908
It's a very critical point where
all the information comes to,
575
00:33:37,014 --> 00:33:39,014
and then it's distributed in the cortex.
576
00:33:40,985 --> 00:33:44,085
The thalamus is called
the Lamp, the Open Eye,
577
00:33:44,188 --> 00:33:45,988
even the Third Eye.
578
00:33:46,090 --> 00:33:49,190
And when you look at this, you wonder:
579
00:33:49,293 --> 00:33:50,833
was it in fact a gift
580
00:33:50,928 --> 00:33:54,828
from extraterrestrial beings
that awakened us?
581
00:33:54,932 --> 00:33:58,072
That enabled us to become
connected to the diviner,
582
00:33:58,169 --> 00:34:00,769
extraterrestrial realm?
583
00:34:00,871 --> 00:34:03,541
Perhaps the extraterrestrials
that had a hand
584
00:34:03,641 --> 00:34:07,581
in fashioning the human body
and in tweaking the human brain,
585
00:34:07,678 --> 00:34:10,548
placed the thalamus there,
in its egg shape,
586
00:34:10,648 --> 00:34:13,978
as a connecting link
to the greater civilization,
587
00:34:14,085 --> 00:34:15,675
out of which we originally emerged.
588
00:34:18,789 --> 00:34:21,559
Could the thalamus
be the physical representation
589
00:34:21,659 --> 00:34:26,199
of what ancient cultures
referred to as the third eye?
590
00:34:26,297 --> 00:34:29,567
And if so, might this
brain structure act
591
00:34:29,667 --> 00:34:33,067
as a connection to greater
forces in the universe?
592
00:34:34,438 --> 00:34:36,938
As incredible as this notion may seem,
593
00:34:37,041 --> 00:34:40,741
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest that the thalamus
594
00:34:40,845 --> 00:34:42,945
can also be found represented
595
00:34:43,047 --> 00:34:47,047
in one of the most prominent
symbols of ancient Egypt--
596
00:34:47,151 --> 00:34:49,251
the Eye of Horus.
597
00:34:52,390 --> 00:34:55,690
The Eye of Horus,
also known as the Eye of Ra,
598
00:34:55,793 --> 00:35:00,803
was a symbol of protection,
royal power and good health.
599
00:35:00,898 --> 00:35:04,898
But it was also known
as the Eye of Providence,
600
00:35:05,002 --> 00:35:07,642
the all-seeing eye of God.
601
00:35:07,738 --> 00:35:11,668
Now what is incredible is
if you look at the thalamus,
602
00:35:11,776 --> 00:35:15,206
and all of the structures
surrounding that,
603
00:35:15,313 --> 00:35:17,953
it looks like the Eye of Horus.
604
00:35:18,049 --> 00:35:21,719
The similarity is really
pretty astonishing.
605
00:35:21,819 --> 00:35:24,549
According to scientists and historians,
606
00:35:24,655 --> 00:35:27,555
the Ancient Egyptians
were likely aware of
607
00:35:27,658 --> 00:35:30,088
the shape of these brain structures.
608
00:35:30,194 --> 00:35:32,264
Well, we have to remember that
the ancient people
609
00:35:32,363 --> 00:35:34,133
were pretty conversant with
610
00:35:34,231 --> 00:35:36,331
cutting animals open of all kinds.
611
00:35:36,434 --> 00:35:41,044
And humans were cleaved open,
broken open.
612
00:35:41,138 --> 00:35:42,968
There would've been any number of ways
613
00:35:43,074 --> 00:35:46,014
for early humans to start
looking at brain structure.
614
00:35:46,110 --> 00:35:49,110
It's clear that thinking
comes from the brain,
615
00:35:49,213 --> 00:35:51,713
but what was the part of
the thalamus for this?
616
00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:56,216
How would the ancient
Egyptians have known about
617
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,620
how all of these parts
of the brain function together?
618
00:35:59,724 --> 00:36:02,224
Is it possible
that they got this knowledge
619
00:36:02,326 --> 00:36:04,086
from extraterrestrials?
620
00:36:07,932 --> 00:36:09,232
Could the Eye of Horus
621
00:36:09,333 --> 00:36:13,743
help solve the puzzle of the Cosmic Egg?
622
00:36:13,838 --> 00:36:16,168
And might the symbol of the Cosmic Egg,
623
00:36:16,273 --> 00:36:17,973
with intertwined serpents,
624
00:36:18,075 --> 00:36:21,535
represent both the thalamus and DNA,
625
00:36:21,645 --> 00:36:23,805
the two biological traits
626
00:36:23,914 --> 00:36:25,554
that are most important in defining
627
00:36:25,649 --> 00:36:28,619
what it means to be human?
628
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:35,159
Scientists estimate that 98.8%
of our DNA goes unused.
629
00:36:35,259 --> 00:36:38,729
And so, it would seem that our creators,
630
00:36:38,829 --> 00:36:40,829
possibly extraterrestrials,
631
00:36:40,931 --> 00:36:46,171
have designed a tool to
help us ultimately unlock
632
00:36:46,270 --> 00:36:51,840
all the potential that we have
already in our DNA and bodies,
633
00:36:51,942 --> 00:36:55,712
and become greater than we are today.
634
00:36:57,681 --> 00:36:59,751
Is it possible that the simple design
635
00:36:59,850 --> 00:37:03,090
of the Cosmic Egg
is a message handed down
636
00:37:03,187 --> 00:37:05,747
from extraterrestrials to humanity,
637
00:37:05,856 --> 00:37:08,856
telling us not only where we come from,
638
00:37:08,959 --> 00:37:11,729
but where we are going?
639
00:37:11,829 --> 00:37:16,699
Or does it symbolize our
connection to the cosmos?
640
00:37:16,801 --> 00:37:19,031
According to
ancient astronaut theorists,
641
00:37:19,136 --> 00:37:22,906
there may be an even more
profound explanation.
642
00:37:28,053 --> 00:37:29,923
In the tradition of the Kabbalah,
643
00:37:30,022 --> 00:37:32,922
the ancient Jewish
mystical philosophy that
644
00:37:33,025 --> 00:37:36,125
arose in the sixth century BC,
645
00:37:36,228 --> 00:37:38,328
an egg-shaped bubble of iridescence
646
00:37:38,430 --> 00:37:41,570
surrounds every human body.
647
00:37:41,667 --> 00:37:44,897
Indian texts dating back 5,000 years
648
00:37:45,004 --> 00:37:48,214
refer to this life energy as "pram."
649
00:37:48,307 --> 00:37:52,007
And Chinese writings
from roughly the same period
650
00:37:52,111 --> 00:37:55,681
contain a similar
concept known as "chi."
651
00:37:57,516 --> 00:38:00,776
Today, there are
some scientists who propose
652
00:38:00,886 --> 00:38:04,956
that there is, in fact,
such an energy that surrounds us
653
00:38:05,057 --> 00:38:08,957
and connects us to all
things in the universe,
654
00:38:09,061 --> 00:38:11,561
a notion that is represented in a theory
655
00:38:11,664 --> 00:38:14,134
called the Holographic Universe.
656
00:38:19,638 --> 00:38:23,068
This scientific discovery,
which is mathematically proven,
657
00:38:23,175 --> 00:38:28,075
tells us that we have an
illusion of a physical universe,
658
00:38:28,180 --> 00:38:30,050
when, in fact, it is all emanating
659
00:38:30,149 --> 00:38:35,889
from a geometric seed or an egg;
a singularity.
660
00:38:35,988 --> 00:38:39,188
All of space and all of time,
661
00:38:39,291 --> 00:38:43,891
and all of the universe itself
is simultaneously
662
00:38:43,996 --> 00:38:47,966
in a singular point,
or a seed, like an egg,
663
00:38:48,067 --> 00:38:53,037
and is telling us that,
in fact, there is a geometry,
664
00:38:53,138 --> 00:38:58,078
that it's possible that these
egg-shaped energy fields exist,
665
00:38:58,177 --> 00:39:01,037
and they are, in fact, the true essence
666
00:39:01,146 --> 00:39:04,616
of what it means
to be alive in this universe.
667
00:39:07,353 --> 00:39:10,293
Curiously, in 2006,
668
00:39:10,389 --> 00:39:13,289
Italian scientists, using data gathered
669
00:39:13,392 --> 00:39:16,962
by NASA'S Wilkinson Microwave
Anisotropy Probe
670
00:39:17,062 --> 00:39:19,602
announced that the universe
might actually
671
00:39:19,698 --> 00:39:23,198
be in the shape of an egg.
672
00:39:23,302 --> 00:39:26,172
Seven years later, in 2013,
673
00:39:26,272 --> 00:39:28,272
NASA scientists announced
674
00:39:28,374 --> 00:39:30,974
that while it looks
circular to the naked eye,
675
00:39:31,076 --> 00:39:35,406
the Earth, too,
is in the shape of an egg.
676
00:39:35,514 --> 00:39:38,554
Is it possible that the ancient
symbol of the Cosmic Egg
677
00:39:38,651 --> 00:39:40,351
represents this notion
678
00:39:40,452 --> 00:39:43,422
that all things
in the universe are connected?
679
00:39:44,990 --> 00:39:47,260
When we ask, does the Cosmic Egg
680
00:39:47,359 --> 00:39:48,759
represent the Big Bang?
681
00:39:51,196 --> 00:39:53,526
Does it represent the human thalamus?
682
00:39:53,632 --> 00:39:55,202
Many of these ancient cultures
683
00:39:55,301 --> 00:39:58,041
were very consistent
in the use of symbolism
684
00:39:58,137 --> 00:40:00,137
as a multidimensional function,
685
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:04,239
and all these different aspects
of the universe
686
00:40:04,343 --> 00:40:06,343
are ultimately emanations of
687
00:40:06,445 --> 00:40:10,245
this one central identity,
or the Cosmic Egg itself.
688
00:40:12,618 --> 00:40:14,218
In looking at the shape
689
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,590
of the Cosmic Egg across
all various dimensions,
690
00:40:16,689 --> 00:40:20,159
whether it be at a macro level--
the shape of the universe;
691
00:40:20,259 --> 00:40:22,429
the micro level--
the shape of the thalamus;
692
00:40:22,528 --> 00:40:24,588
they all seem to be interconnected,
693
00:40:24,697 --> 00:40:26,597
explaining that this shape
seems to connect us
694
00:40:26,699 --> 00:40:29,229
with a higher state of existence,
695
00:40:29,335 --> 00:40:32,135
possibly even with
higher states of beings:
696
00:40:32,237 --> 00:40:34,237
what we might call extraterrestrials.
697
00:40:37,376 --> 00:40:38,536
Like the Christian Cross,
698
00:40:38,644 --> 00:40:40,044
like the Star of David,
699
00:40:40,145 --> 00:40:42,875
like the Hindu Mandala...
700
00:40:42,981 --> 00:40:46,121
the Cosmic Egg is
a symbol that connects.
701
00:40:46,218 --> 00:40:48,188
But it goes beyond just connecting.
702
00:40:48,287 --> 00:40:51,887
It seems to point to
our source of origin.
703
00:40:51,990 --> 00:40:54,620
And ultimately, as we embrace
the symbol of the Cosmic Egg,
704
00:40:54,727 --> 00:40:59,327
it causes us to recognize
the unity of all of creation
705
00:40:59,431 --> 00:41:01,831
and this fundamental, very simple idea
706
00:41:01,934 --> 00:41:04,944
that we all came from
the same original point, seed,
707
00:41:05,037 --> 00:41:08,167
or Cosmic Egg, that broke up, dispersed
708
00:41:08,273 --> 00:41:12,013
and will one day reunify.
709
00:41:14,413 --> 00:41:17,483
Might the Cosmic Egg
be an important clue
710
00:41:17,583 --> 00:41:22,193
for what connects us to other
entities in the universe--
711
00:41:22,287 --> 00:41:26,157
entities that may even be our creators?
712
00:41:26,258 --> 00:41:30,088
If so, is it their intention
that as we discover more
713
00:41:30,195 --> 00:41:32,455
about not just
the mysteries of the universe,
714
00:41:32,564 --> 00:41:36,134
but the mysteries within
each and every one of us,
715
00:41:36,235 --> 00:41:38,895
we will arrive at this conclusion?
716
00:41:39,004 --> 00:41:40,974
Perhaps one day soon,
717
00:41:41,073 --> 00:41:44,513
we will discover that within
the symbol of the Cosmic Egg
718
00:41:44,610 --> 00:41:47,580
lies the key to ascending beyond Earth,
719
00:41:47,679 --> 00:41:50,449
to join our alien ancestors
720
00:41:50,549 --> 00:41:52,449
in the stars.
