Genius: The Story of Nikola Tesla (video)
Nikola Tesla: Hard to Believe — But it’s True! His important discoveries -- which he explained came to him after being broadcast through space to him from another planet with intelligent life -- were way ahead of their time, so the U.S. government stole them and developed them in secret.

- She was later christened Juana Maria by Anglo Christian missionaries in the Santa Barbara Mission. When first abducted, she escaped back to the island by jumping ship to get her brother, who was later eaten by wild dogs, as the rest of the native Ghalas-at people (called Nicoleños) were moved from San Nicolas Island to mainland California. She survived on the island alone with dogs for 18 years, likely seeing others who passed. In 1853 Capt. Nidever and his crew "rescued" her and took her to Santa Barbara. Her story is told in Island of the Blue Dolphins ("With island dig halted, Lone Woman still a stinging mystery," Los Angeles Times, 3-5-15).
Better-than-Nothing
The Strange Tale of the Lone Woman of San Nicolas Island
 |
| Off the coast of Los Angeles are eight large Channel Islands, such as Catalina (wiki). |
 |
| "Karana" (Braun Library, Autry Nat'l Center, LA) |
The island's "shifting sand dunes, its 90-foot fog shrouded peak, its deep cut canyons, its bleak cliffs, and the crashing seas breaking over its rocky shores" made it "just about one of the most desolate places on earth."
- Five of the eight Channel Islands are part of Channel Islands National Park. The waters surrounding them make up California's Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary. They were first inhabited by the Los Angeles area Tongva and Ventura Chumash Native Americans 13,000 years ago, who were then killed by European colonialists. The US military now uses the islands as weapons test sites, training grounds, and strategic defense much in the way they have overtaken and ruined the massive Hawaiian island chain, the majority of which is closed to civilians.
- Hawaii encompasses most of the volcanic Hawaiian archipelago, hundreds of islands spread over 1,700 miles.
Now it was supposedly uninhabited, though sailors sailing by occasionally reported seeing a human figure waving her arms, running towards them on the foggy shore.In 1853, Captain George Nidever set out on his third trip in search of this legendary apparition. The year before, his crew had discovered footprints in the sand.
"Outside there was a high pile of ashes and bones showing that she had lived in this place for some time. Baskets of grass and vessels of the same material made in the shape of a flagon and lined with asphaltum, used to hold water, were scattered about.

Crewmen were impressed with her resourcefulness: she kept every scrap of food she could, saving bones so that she could suck them to the marrow.
She helped the visitors find fresh water and firewood and showed Nidever how to make a water proof jug using heated stones and asphaltum.
When it was time to leave, she boarded the ship willingly, her clothes and one filled large basket the only remnants of her former life.
She was taken to Mission Santa Barbara and placed in the care of Nidever's wife. She was a regional curiosity, and folks came from far and wide to see her sing and dance. Capt. Nidever was offered a chance to display her as a circus sideshow, which he declined.
After many years alone, she seemed thrilled to be with people once again. She was fascinated by the new sights and sounds around her.
When she saw a man on a horse for the first time, she thought they were one creature. She was so amazed when the rider dismounted that she had to go over and touch them both.
All of her kinfolk were dead by this time, and none of the other Native Americans or multi-lingual European priests at the mission were able to understand her. But her kindness was evident to everyone.She was continually given gifts by visitors which she would accept effusively and then give to the Nidever children.
Only a few weeks after she was left at the Catholic mission, Karana died. Though her death was blamed on an overindulgence of rich food, a simple illness (dysentery) that she had no immunity to was probably the real cause.
In a final insult, after her death, the woman was baptized in the Catholic faith and Christened "Juana Maria." She was buried at the Santa Barbara mission in an unmarked grave as was the custom then. More

He migrated to Asia with a merchant caravan along the Silk Road to
teach the Lost Tribes of Israel in a large outpost along the Silk Road in Kashmir, India (as documented by Holger Kersten). He eventually died like a normal human being, a holy elder of many years (and, we speculate, was almost certainly reborn in a lower heaven such as Brahma's Retinue, a lofty world in space described in Buddhist cosmology).- "Heaven" in Buddhism

Judeo-Christian roots: Maundy Thursday
St. Issa's disciples then and now: leftwing radicals to rightwing extremists. But is that a pig on platter in front of Rabbi Issa, seated next to his beloved wife Mary Magdalene? If there is one thing desert Jews would not be eating at a Seder it is pork (netglimse.com).
Maundy Thursday (also known as Holy Thursday, Sheer Thursday, Thursday of Mysteries) is the Christian feast, or holy day (holiday) that falls on the Thursday before Easter.
And, of course, Easter is the Pagan celebration of the Goddess Ester, which was taken over an re-purposed by the sexist, hegemonic, imperial church of Rome that killed to spread the faith.
And, of course, by "spread" we mean ram it down the throats of every indigenous culture it came across as it set out to join the merchants and military trying to take over the planet.
St, Issa, more popular than Elvis, was spotted recently on Wall Street protesting the love of money, which his bestseller claims is "the root of all evil" (theatlantic.com).
It commemorates the Maundy and final dinner ("Last Supper") of the Jewish-Buddhist St. Issa with his few yogi chelas as described in the Christian canon but not mentioned very much in the forbidden gospels.
It is the fifth day of Holy Week, and is preceded by Spy Wednesday and followed by Good Friday, all of which were co-opted from our very festive/festal Pagan forebears.
The date always ranges between March 19th and April 22nd. The exact date falls on different days depending on whether the Gregorian or Julian calendar is used liturgically. Eastern Orthodox churches generally use the Julian calendar, and so celebrate this feast throughout the 21st Century between April 1st and May 5th (now the more important American holiday of Cinco de Mayo) in the more commonly used Gregorian calendar.
The liturgy held on the evening of Maundy Thursday initiates the Easter Triduum, the period which commemorates the passion (suffering), death (coma or fake out), and "resurrection" of St. Issa, who was then spirited away back to Kashmir, India, where he lived a long life and is now entombed in the ancient formerly Jewish outpost of Kashmir with a Muslim cleric.
- Scholar Holger Kersten documents it all
- Holger Kersten in NonDualityAmerica
- Jewish life in Marin, California
This period includes Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and ends on the evening of Easter. The mass or service of worship for the Maitreya Buddha (messiah savior) is normally celebrated in the evening, when Friday begins according to pre-Christian Jewish tradition, as the final dinner was held on the feast of Passover, which originally had a much deeper meaning than the cover story about blood on doorways causing killer extraterrestrial angels to kill the neighbors' kids while sparing the observant houses.

Emperors of Extravagance (bloody Herod)
King Herod, made famous in a runaway bestseller by King James and in the movie adaptation "Jesus Christ Superstar," has archaeologists talking. The extent of his extravagance has been further revealed.
Dancing girls, palaces, pleasure gardens, pyramids, underground temples, secret inner chambers, kings (particularly rapacious emperors) lived in unimaginable luxury. While we may think that we live at the historical height of hedonism and sensual craving, in fact, rulers in ancient times often spent all they could to re-create the heavens on Earth. They likely had visitors explaining what these celestial worlds were like; they may have even been taken to them.
Emperor Asoka became a great Buddhist
The Buddha often spoke of past republics and kingdoms. Their fate was always the same. But the diversity of the pleasures they indulged in is still mind boggling to us today. We hardly know the extent of what is going on now, but what happened thousands of years ago is coming to light:
Archaeologists find theater box at Herod's palace

Footage from an intrepid traveler to India of the actual Tomb of Jesus, now revered by Hindus and protected by a sect of Muslims.
View the tomb of Jesus in Kashmir, which Kashmiris some Biblical scholars believe to be that of Jesus of Nazareth. This herky-jerky hi-8 video was shot in 1997 with almost no narration.
It is simply a view of the tomb, the interior of which is now off-limits to foreigners. Yuz Asaph (to Muslims, Yus Assaf and to Indians, Saint Issa) is a revered holy man said to have traveled from Israel. He was finally put to rest here over 1900 years ago. Having survived the crucifixion with help and escaped back to India where he had not only studied for 18 years but gone in search of Lost Tribes of the Israel. (Apparently, Jews are only one of the Biblical tribes). Interestingly, many Kashmiris share the DNA of Israelites.
Moreover, footprint carvings (a common expression of adoration in Buddhism and other Eastern religions) were left in the tomb. They indicate that the saint they represent had scars on both of his feet. There is also found a rosary (Indian mala) and a cross. See many photos of this tomb at elevenshadows.com
