Man enters Realm of Elves in Hollow Hill


In Malaysia there is a hill (Bukit Broga, near Semenyih and Kuala Lumpur), likely the entrance to an underground world (cavern, portal, tunnel system) called Alamaza, a name reminiscent of Agartha and Aztlan, references to a Hollow Earth civilization or levels of "heavens" in Hindu and Buddhist lore. This is a literal "fairy (féerie) kingdom" or alternate dimension as spoken of existing in woodland forests the world over.



Mysterious Orang Bunian of Indonesia | Mythlok
In Malaysian, Singaporean, Bruneian, and Indonesian folklore, bunian people or Orang bunian [akin to the other humans, the Asian Bigfoot/Yeti creatures known as Orang Pendek).

They are suspected "supernatural" unseen beings said to be invisible to most humans, except for those who are born with or develop "spiritual sight." (In Buddhism, this is called the cultivation of dibba cakkhu or the "third eye" between the brows, likely corresponding to a DMT-oozing pineal gland).
  • If they live underground to remain unseen, these are the "hollow hills," cave systems, or burial mounds into which they retreat.
While the term Orang bunian is often translated as "elves," it literally means "hidden people" or "whistling people." (Bigfoot all over the world are known to whistle and mimic human sounds very well, as well as tossing stones and rustling in the foliage).

Orang bunian when seen are described as beautiful, dressed in ancient Southeast Asian style, and nearly identical to humans in appearance. [One might call the bhumi devas or "woodland fairies, sprite, the Fae or sidhe.]

Some mythological accounts describe the lack of a philtrum (the human "love charm" or lateral cleft above the lip below the nose).

Modern depictions of Orang bunian deviate from the traditional folklore by including elf-like features -- pointed ears, high fantasy-influenced attire, or modern Minangkabau long-coat clothing [1].

Folklore
Aos Sí or aes sidhe of Ireland: Tuatha de Danann in European lore, myth, and legend

Orang bunian are said to inhabit the deep forests or high mountains in Sumatra, Borneo and Malay Peninsula, far from human contact [2], as well as near human communities, and are even said to share the same houses as human families [3].

According to legend, their social structure is similar to that of humans in the ancient Malay Peninsula, with families, clans, and royalty. As with other mythical beings in Indonesian folklore, Orang bunian often have supernatural powers [4] and must be appeased with certain rituals [or offerings] and customs before humans are allowed to trespass areas they inhabit.

Orang bunian are generally regarded as benevolent, befriending and assisting humans, particularly magicians (dukun or bomoh) and shamans (pawang) [5].


They are said to be able to intermarry with humans and bear invisible children [6].

Wake up, Rip Van Winkle! It's very late.
According to some tales, men married Orang bunian females but later decided to leave the bunian community and return to the human families they had left behind. However, after returning to human society, they found that many years had passed and everyone they once knew had died.

These narratives have been compared to Urashima Taro and Rip Van Winkle [7] [which would suggest that devas are much longer lived than humans but that "time" exists at different rates simultaneously everywhere all at once, such that one might experience an "eternity" somewhere then return to the human plane where an eternity had not yet elapsed and vice versa]. More

Jataka Fable: Tree Spirit in a Banyan Tree


A BAD PROMISE -- In the past as now in many places, people have had superstitions. One such superstition is that a large or unusual tree is inhabited by a tree deva (a kind of woodland faerie, sprite, dryad, or spirit). People think that they can make a promise to this tree spirit to get help in some way. When they think the deva has helped, they must keep their promise.

Once upon a time, in the city of Kashi in northern India, a man came upon a large banyan tree. He immediately thought there must be a godling living there. So he made the promise to this tree spirit that he would perform a gory animal sacrifice in return for a wish being granted.

It just so happened that his wish was fulfilled -- whether by a deva, a demon (mara, yakkha, naga, asura, naraka, etc.), or by some other means. But the man was sure the tree deva had answered his prayer, so he wanted to keep his promise.

Since it was a big wish, it called for a big sacrifice. He brought many goats, mules, chickens, and sheep. He collected firewood and prepared to burn the helpless animals alive as a sacrifice.

The spirit living in the banyan tree appeared and said:

"Oh friend, you made a promise and are bound by it. You think you must keep the promise in order to be released from the bondage to it. But if you commit such terrible unwholesome acts -- even as you promised -- the painful results will put you in much greater bondage. For you will be forced to suffer those results in this life, the next life, and even by rebirths in hellish worlds! The way to release yourself into future deliverance is to give up unwholesome actions, no matter what.

"Furthermore, since you think I'm a godling, what makes you think I eat meat? Haven't you heard that we devas eat better things, like ambrosia, nectar, stardust, or sunbeams? I have no need or desire for meat or any other food offerings." Then the deva disappeared.

The foolish man understood the mistake he had made. Instead of doing unwholesome deeds (bad karma) that would force unhappy results on him in the future, he began to do only wholesome deeds (beneficial karma) that would benefit him and others. And the moral to the story is this:

"Keeping a bad promise is worse than making it."

UFO Coverup in the News

The latest release to obfuscate and di-vert attention from the issue came out 2/23/09. In it speculative scientists (or their ghostwriters) are postulating that maybe Atmospheric "sprites" may explain UFOs. Just as with the issue of global warming, scientists were paid to publish articles suggesting that there were other better explanations and that the science was unclear.

In spite of the environmental degradation, the conservative media (spearheaded by Republicans, Christian fundamentalists, and right-wing radio mouthpieces like Rush Limbaugh and Dennis Praeger in addition to entire media outlets like the increasingly ridiculous FOX News Network and CNN) put out stories lending doubt to the issue. Stories are frequently fed in and reported with a smirk and a ludicrous air of smugness.

There should be no doubt that there are "others." The evidence is overwhelm-ing and not hidden. But since our government, and governments around the world and over time, lie to us on a daily basis, until there is a false "alien invasion" people will simply do what they have been trained to do, say what they had been programmed to say, and slouch in ignorance.

Akasa-devas, asuras, nagas, garudas, supannas, yakkhas, rakshasas, rudras, gandhabbas, bhumma-devas, djinn, nephilim, watchers, cherubim, seraphim, angels, arch-angels, grays, reptilians, and others certainly left their mark -- whether they were seen (transformed into dense flesh) or unseen (cloaked or more subtle in form).

The great cultural (now considered only "religious" or mythological) texts from civilizations around the world (e.g., Sumeria, India, Dogon of Africa, and the Semitic tribes of the Middle East, to say nothing of government reports released in the UK and USSR in recent years) make it clear there are extraterrestrial crafts in orbit around the earth. There is little doubt that they have communicated. "God" in the Old Testament and in Sumerian and similar texts is always plural, referring not to the idealized deity of oneness but to an overlord race of being not to be questioned.

And all of this is consistent with a Buddhist outlook. The Buddha, like Christ, is constantly to be seen making references to nagas (reptilians/dragons). He frequently refers back to Aryans (a super race of invaders whose advanced technologies conquered the South and Southeast Asia). Indian ("Hindu") and Greek ("Pagan") stories are full of the exploits of these gods or godlings, celestial and terrestrial.

The entire universe (or "world system") is populated with countless worlds and countless beings. That this should sound "crazy" is testament to the success of marketing campaigns we are subjected to. Until Gore showed otherwise (while concealing the biggest industrial polluters in America), global warming was ridiculed.

Once someone gets past the immensity that "we are not alone," one may experience anger that we have been kept in the dark systematically. It has been obedience by design. And although the information has repeatedly been leaked into the collective consciousness, the information gatekeepers, ever-skeptical scientists (who exhibit little backbone in admitting to believing anything the government and/or their faculty committees have not first approved), and conservative bullies (and front organizations like NASA) still set out red herrings to re-hide the truth every chance they get.

Natural Explanation Found for [Some] UFOs
SPACE.com (2/23/09)

Mysterious UFO sightings may go hand in hand with a puzzling natural phenomenon known as sprites — flashes high in the atmosphere triggered by thunderstorms.

The dancing lights have appeared above most thunderstorms throughout history, but researchers did not start studying them until one accidentally recorded a sighting on camera in 1989.

"Lightning from the thunderstorm excites the electric field above, producing a flash of light called a sprite," said Colin Price, a geophysicist at Tel Aviv University in Israel. "We now understand that only a specific type of lightning is the trigger that initiates sprites aloft." More>>
