Sigiriya - Ancient Sky City Built With Advanced Technology
ฝัง

- One of the most impressive places in Sri Lanka is Sigiriya, a site often named the 8th wonder of the world. Sigiriya was also home to an ancient city that sat atop the monolithic rock towering 650 feet over the town of Dambulla in the Matale District of Sri Lanka. The site attracts thousands of tourists daily and has been a UNESCO heritage site since 1982. Many believe that the giant monolithic rock looks unnatural because of its perfectly flat top, which almost looks like it's been cut at a precise angle. The locals believe this ancient site was built thousands of years ago by an ancient Hindu god, named Ravana, who was part of an advanced race of beings known as the Asura. These deities are said to have come down from the sky and ruled over portions of humanity. There are strange scoop marks and holes in the rock, and at the top, there are bricks, marble blocks, and an enormous granite water tank found in the middle of the site. How all of them were built and how ancient carried the materials to the top is still unexplained.

This channel is ridiculous
@@davepowell7168 Then do not watch it.
As mentioned before, all ancient megalithic sites and monuments are manfound but extraterrestrials-built. Specially this one which looks like a base for some kind of a technology put there out of reach to work, or a temporarily inter galactic resting spot as you have seen in movies, or some kind of tower for guarding something...Whatever it is, it doesnt belong to humans at all, i put my life on it...
I am a Sri Lankan and a 16 year old student. As I was studying History I came across the part on the Sigiriya water foundations. I always grew interested in this so I came for more info on the internet. As a Sri Lankan I am filled with pride that the foreign population is recognizing the wonders of Sri Lanka at last.
Protect it at all costs!
Thank you @@Lol_Pig ♥

Make sure you spend most of your time in this laidback surf town called Arugambay on the exact coast. Make sure you explore a lot there are crazy hidden gems deep inside the jungle and also the surf is crazy good. Then travel further north from Arugambay towards Trincomalee. Rent out a scooter and you'd love it.
Sigiriya is truly a marvel of ancient engineering and artistry. The advanced technology used to build this fortress is simply mind-boggling. From the intricate water gardens to the rock-carved architecture and polished Mirror Wall, the builders of Sigiriya were truly ahead of their time. The fact that the irrigation system still works to this day is a testament to the ingenuity and skill of the ancient Sri Lankan people.
Moreover, the frescoes at Sigiriya are some of the best-preserved examples of ancient Sri Lankan art, and the level of detail and sophistication is astounding. The women depicted in the frescoes wear intricate jewelry and have elaborately styled hair and clothing. The fact that these paintings have survived for over a thousand years is remarkable, and speaks to the durability of the materials and techniques used.
In my opinion, the evidence of advanced technology and artistry at Sigiriya is undeniable. It's a true testament to the creativity, skill, and ingenuity of ancient civilizations, and a reminder that there is so much we can learn from our past.
So after all that, you still think the locals during the dark ages, built this, under the leadership of a paranoid and murderous king? I do not. That man only stole what he could from this place. Besides. Nobody can carry these building materials to the top of mountain like that, without Large Army Construction helicopters and cranes. There is no other way. Literally.
I don't think Sigiriya was built by ancient Sri Lankan people but rather by their masters. It's like saying the old african american slaves were very proud of what their white rulers built, which I don't think they would be.
I think the reason these ancient reptilian masters are no longer around is because the ancient people rose up against their evil rule and drove them back underground where they came from. Unfortunately now those same evil rulers from the past have risen up again and taken over the whole world and soon it will be time to drive them back underground once more. Peace🤙
I'm a bit confused, what is the evidence for advanced technology there specifically? ...I seem to have missed that part of the presentation... like your comment, she says there's evidence of advanced technology and then moves on, perhaps my video skipped the bit where that evidence was presented.
Similarly, could you define what advanced artistry is as I'm not familiar with that term... is that art that is more complicated than the kind of art you'd expect to see there...?
Thanks for helping me learn here, I fail to see the obvious sometimes, even when it is clear as day to everyone else.
@@JesseP.Watson - gods built this per what they even said. We know there are no gods so who were they?
@@brianstrutter1501 Hard work, dedication and unwavering perseverance built it, something unimaginable to most people in this age. That's all you need, no magic, no advanced tech, no aliens, no super beings... just people with a vision and a kind of human ingenuity very rarely found in the West today.
I have read the entire story of Ramayana over 20 years ago, hence, this is so interesting to discover. There was an enlightened master in this modern lifetime who used to live during those ancient times. He lifted very heavy objects like elephants and small aeroplanes. He led meditationas at the UN for 37 years from 1970 till his demise in 2007. His name is Sri Chinmoy. I am one of his direct students.
The royal palace of Sigiriya was entered through a path inside the Sigiriya rock. Stairs were not built outside Sigiriya because enemies were coming. It is said that there is another palace inside Sigiriya.
It is said that after the British conquered Sri Lanka, they took all the antiquities there to Britain.
Meanwhile, it is said that there were parts of the Sigiriya treasure. Later, the door is closed and the reason for closing the door is unknown.
But they were cursed by Ravana for stealing the treasure of Sigiriya.
Some of the antiques are in the British Museum and many are auctioned off among the world's richest men.
One of the oldest civilizations on Earth..never fails to amaze me. Good video.
There's more history to the human race than just the 2000 year's recorded
hinduism says humans have been around for millions of yrs which i agree with, without a doubt.
@@anthonyhudson3136 I don't know about millions of years but I do believe there was a civilization before this one. I think the pyramids in Egypt mexico and other structures around the world are ruins from it
Yeah “recorded” by the victors at that
@@anthonyhudson3136 Regarding to what the egiptian priest told the greek philosophists, human history dates back more less 400 000 years. Too bad the egiptian government would not allow excavation, nor publication about the sphinx.
@@anthonyhudson3136 millions of years could be true. Reminds me of some ancient carving of a Stegosaurus in I believe was a Cambodian temple. At least there was without a doubt one or more very advanced civilizations on Earth in our past.
I am a Canadian Sri Lankan and was just in Sri Lanka for the past month. I climbed this mountain. It was EPIC. I love Kandy too! Sri Lanka is so so Beautiful.
Not only Sigiriya and Kandy, there are many other beautiful and mystical places in Sri Lanka. Come back to Sri Lanka and see and experience the beauty. Thanks.
Thanks 🙏

How beautiful! I am ashamed to say I never knew about this beautiful work of art despite being a history buff and living nearby!!
I’ve been there. It was awesome. Our history is much older than we think.
As a Sri Lankan, the one thing I appreciate more is the effort made to do justice to the pronunciation of names.

Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!😊🙏
Go to Praveen Mohan channel for an even better explanation. His scientific mind unfolds 100s of sights and hidden in plain sight ancient technologies in SriLanka and India that even the locals weren't aware of.
@@tipofthespear7182 Thanx - did it!
@@UniverseInsideYou Hi. I'm a slow learner, I wonder if you help me please, what is evidence for advanced technology there ? I miss that part of video. says there's evidence of advanced technology and then I waiting, maybe buggy video skipped evidence bit but seems not like click bait so I must miss it. Thanks for helping me learn, I miss the obvious sometime, even when it seem clear to everyone else.
@@JesseP.Watson Hey Jesse, the evidence for advanced technology is the structures on the top of the rock because, without advanced technologies, it's impossible to get thousands of tons of material to the top because there were no stairs there. Also, the granite pool was made by carving thousands of tons of granite from the rock, and granite is one of the hardest stones on Earth. Also, there are various scoop-like marks on the stones, like they somehow melted the stone with some advanced technology and reshaped it. These marks can be found also at the side of the rock, at places where the rock is at 90 degrees, and it's impossible to stand, let alone drill and carve the rock. There are no signs of primitive tools and chisels on the rock. The tons of granite removed are also not seen anywhere around Sigiriya, meaning that they must have removed it and taken it somewhere far away, which is a monumental task in this jungle area. The underground water system, and the drainage system, are also very advanced and still work today, thousands of years after their creation. Basically, the very existence of the structures at such a place suggests the ancient must have had some sort of ancient technology to create such a structure.
information gathered is soothing to the mind. Thank you for all you do! Much love!!!😊
Sigiriya, it is nearly 3km away from our villa. What a fantastic view to see it. You should visit it for sure.... Just add it to your list.... Sri Lanka. Is one of best hospitality places on the universe.

These people ...including this channel don't give f**- about Sri Lankan Mythology/ History ... They're only interested to connecting it with ALIENS coz Non White people can't built anything that advance according to them..!
Loved the video. Love everything about Sri Lanka, including the people. 🥰❤
including people 😕
@@nirmanranathunga3549hy whats wrong with the people
As a Sri Lankan this video is so interesting and informative to watch. Not because I’m a Sri Lankan, saying this but Sri Lanka has a rich history and the ancient engineering especially the islands irrigation system during ancient times is another impressive work. Some tanks look like sea they were all man made.
I really like this video. I just happened to see this video and first time watching your channel. Just subscribed.
As a Sri Lankan, I have heard legends about an inner palace within the Sigiri rock, accessible through a cave gate located near the lion's foot. This cave gate provided access to a path leading from the inside of the rock to its peak. It is said that this path was used to transport bricks to the top of the rock. Currently, this pathway is hidden from the world, and there are rumors that it was sealed off secretly. According to legend, the path was closed by H.C.P Bell, a British Ceylon archaeologist. Thus, it is believed that there are two palaces, one inside the rock and one on top of it.
The real history about Ravana and segiriya has in Ramajanam (ithihasam) and Tamil Tholcabiyam
several medicines books and other items still British musiam they found it, inside the palace when they discovered
Thank you for providing the information
ass a sri lankan bla bla. over proud lankan. go watch something else
I'm currently visiting various ancient sites in Mexico and the numbers of similarities in architecture with ancient asian sites are just mindboggling! Imo the survivors of an ancient cataclysm traveled the world by sea and air to teach their knowledge to the locals and establish dynasties/build cities several millenias ago. I had not heard about this remarquable site so thank you very much :)
In making the comment you just did further proves that you immigrants know nothing about the true history of the America's nor my ancestors who occupied the Americas. I think you people are better off speaking on the history of your own people. WOW
Anunaki
@@josteincarlsen2905 SAPTARISHI'S
Even Peru with temples of sun god worshipped by Incas have striking similarity .
@Tsewe Fun fact: Some historians state that King Ravana ruled over many places on Earth not just this Island, areas which included South America 😅 And he posessed the mysterious vehicle which flew over the sky.
The Buddhist monks have kept written records of the history of Sri Lanka for well over two thousand years, much have been burned in last five hundred years but many still have verbal knowledge of the 3 star gates located in Sri Lanka; plus some have knowledge of the flying air crafts flown by Ravana that used mercury for propulsion. Go to some of the ancient sites and meet the monks that reside in these areas, they hold invaluable secrets of ancient times.
Like saying Zeus, Odin, Thor, or any of the Norse or Greek or Egyptian Gods were ACTUALL REAL?!!? Can You Believe IT? Really guys some old guy says so. It must be true.
Sri Lankans have also mentioned these not only in India
@@ExecutiveChefLance U think Jesus is real ?
@Mailman the concept of being a monk was way before there among Hindu when Buddhism wasn't even born.

Thank you. Your podcast was interesting and informative, covering some aspects I've not seen before. It was a great presentation. Glenn from Ozz
There's so much in history we still don't know all around the world. It's just amazing.
Have you done a video on the Ellora and Ajanta Caves yet? I’d love to hear what your research discovers about it’s origin & purpose! Thanks again for another great video. Your channel does amazing work and asks interesting questions. Cheers -Jimmy
ive been to both of those
@@tigrecito48 man, I’m so jealous of you haha was it as amazing as it looks?
@@JimmyJamesJimbo ummm... its cool... not absolutely amazing.. it depends how much stuff uve seen before i guess... id already been to the taj mahal and lots of other forts in north india.. ive also been to the lost city in colombia & machu picchu in peru etc and a lot of pyramids in guatemala & mexico so compared to those things its not amazing.. the main problem with going to ellora & ajante is its not a main tourist area so theres not a lot of other stuff to do in the towns nearby (unless you like that sort of thing) so u have to go quite far off the beaten track to see these ruins with pretty much nothing else to see there afterwards..
Hey ajantha is made by brother who make sigiriya.history was wrong they changed our history.sri lanka is not just a country.thats the start of the human bc.
This is such an amazing wonder of the world. The advanced water system, architecture, and art that still operates and maintains to this very day 1500+ years later is astounding. Especially considering that it is all built on a giant rock hundreds of feet high! I for sure believe that this was a feat that was aided by extraterrestrials. I feel that all these ancient gods were alien visitors. I just wonder why they stopped visiting us around a little after this era only to return again in the late 1800's or 1900's? What is their goal and purpose in regards to humanity?
Why Humanity is Failing. Because people like you have Zero faith in their OWN SPECIES! Imagine thinking so LOWLY of Humans that Aliens must of Built our Greatest Monuments. That is a Sad Delusion to have and honestly Evil.
This is all work of ancient sinhala engineers. Nothing to do with gods, extraterrestrials or demons. This is purely skilled Sri Lankan craftsmanship that is now lost to us mainly due to foreign invasions by south indians and europians, namely Portuguese, Dutch and English
@@ScepticusHistoricus how can you be this racist?
It is evident that human beings have evolved backwards in regards to architectural advancements, even though we are moving onto more tech savvy civilizations. And you claiming that “Sinhala” people has lost their way with the intervention of South indians and others is just ridiculous.
And on a serious note, the first sinhala king in Srilanka was Thevanambiya thissa, the one before him, Pandugabaya worshiped sun and apparently followed sign and symbol language. So there’s no evidence that connects to your claim that those ancient people were Sinhalese.
Learn the right history first
@@ScepticusHistoricus Firstly sigiriya is home to Tamil King Ravanan. This was built by the Tamil King Raavanan.
@@Madhu-uy4dj Before even claiming Ravana was tamil, give archeological evidence for his exsistance. Secondly give evidence to prove that mythical king Ravana is a tamil. Neither Valmiki nor Kamban states anywhere in their works that Ravana was tamil. Since these are the only written records of this, what proof that you can present to support your claim?
As always, a most excellent, educational story.
this things deserve more recognition. I visited there couple years ago. Just couldn't believe my eyes that moment.Since that day I still doing research about ravana history and sigiriya. must say that Sigiriya holding so many secrets more It's seems. Some key things missed in this video. But great effort. Thank u so much for this documentary
I wanto to go there so bad!
Love hindu culture, history and mith.
Sri Lanka is beautiful!
this place has no connection with Hinduism or any religion. sigiriya built by Sinhalese king kashyapa
@@iamnedd92 Probably much older than that king too. And either we want it or not, it is connected to Hindu mythology. Everything is connected in a certain way.
@@iamnedd92 Gi check who King Ravana or Kashyappa worshiped and followed and how they looked like
Sri Lankan Culture* there I corrected it for you
@@Meriinaa Yes Sri Lankan culture, influenced by Hinduism, Christianity, also Muslim, no? And certainly other things besides religion?
I knew it .I had a feeling.. kind of sensed it when I visited the place. A serious engineering that. Took pictures of my son's standing by the water tanks, at the Lion /paw Gates and sitting in The King's lounging rock pad .all built and cut on granitr ocks. Scary to go up .. in the narrow thin metal ladders.. it is obvious that it would have been impossible for humans in those times to cut through such height of giant rock ..it's a world wonder for sure. And Sigiriya is towards the inlands of the country.. The inner one goes .the more wonderful beauty and mind blowing nature, structure and a layout can be seen.
Aayoubowan Sri Lanka Paradise Island. Best wishes from a Canadian born in Sri Lanka.
Thank you so much for bringing SIGIRIYA in your channel.
Beautiful informations , thank you ,
more more more more more. I love your videos. The definition of a real show that networks would pay big money to produce. This is what this channel is.
keep going 🔥!!! I never heard of this I love it you keep bringing us some dope content. I would love to see what you could do with that Atlantean mega city in the Japanese oceans in the 90's and structures almost more prestine than those uncovered in Egypt and the Grand canyon. Also those ruins in the 1912 Antarctica expedition, the mountains/pyramids named after the " elite families" and all the weird looking churches in the middle of nowhere in the artics too. I know y'all would come up with some wild stuff w that.
You should check out Praveen Mohan's channel where he covers many ancient sites found in India, Sri Lanka, Combodia, etc. He usually ties it back to Hinduism and finds clues or hints the builders left that mainstream archeologists dont seem to mention. The amount of insane buildings, temples, carvings, and ancient sites still around and in fairly great shape is astounding and I dont understand why these areas dont have nearly as much archeological influence as other well known places. Praveen shows lots of really wonderous and amazing places, usually in person, and ties it back to ancient texts. I dont always agree with his assessment or theories on everything, but its still really insightful nonetheless and you'll get to see TONS of places you would probably never hear about otherwise. He has a few videos on this place, one going over the 7 or 8 different defense mechanisms that start at the gardens and work there way up, such as how those gardens could be rapidly flooded and why the ponds/lakes are at varying levels so if you you were a warring faction that didnt know the area you might easily fall into an alligator infested pool.
Also those pictures of ruins in Antarctica were 100% fake and created from AI image generators. Many people still dont realize how easy these images are to make and what to look for in AI photos so a lot of people fell for it but even the guy who made them has come out and said all the photos he's made of "newly found photos from some real historical lost expedition" were fake. I think its kinda crappy to try to pass them off as real. He did this a few times, more than just the Antarctic photos, there was a few lost jungle expedition photos floating around too, so be careful with everything you see out there. Those pics are as easy as typing in "18-1900's black and white photos of Pyramids (or Temple, Ancient Structures, etc) in Antarctica" and you'll get 4 different ones in about 30 seconds. I was able to tell instantly those pics were AI as there's a few things to look out for on top of them just having this certain dreamlike/nightmarish feel to them.
What's this Elite family's u speak of?
Great video. New info to me. Never seen or heard of this place. Thank you for posting
What a beautiful presentation.
Astounding place.
Thank you for bringing this little known part of World to us all... Love learning about the many many amazing locations on this planet ...
I enjoyed learning from this video❤🎉love everyone’s special comments! Oh, beautiful 🌏 Earth!
Truly awe inspiring place, wish I could go back there now! One day I will 😍
Wow! This reminds me so much of Meteora in Greece and the two Buddhist temples in China, on the Wuling Mountains.
I did a little search on the internet and found that there are many plateaus in the world. Colorado plateau in USA for example, or the Ayers Rock in Uluru National Park of Australia.
I went rock climbing in Meteora and found the pebbles of limestone to be perfectly-shaped to grab onto while going to the top. Looking at the small regular indentations in the rock of Sigiriya, it's entirely possible that people climbed to the top. Anchors placed in large openings could have been used to carry heavier objects . Granite is a dream to climb.
Documentary like this was actually needed about Sigiriya. Thanks for this.
Mythologically, it is stated that there are 2 master builders one for devas (vishwakarma) and one for asuras (mayaasura). The city was considered to built by vishwakarma under the order of Kubera the lord of wealth. Raavana the step brother of kubera, took the place from kubera by force and used mayaasura to enhance the place even better. The city was destroyed during the Ramayana period by Hanuman and it was believed to be rebuilt next day to the same former glory.
These are always so fascinating! Thank you for making them
Nice work Praveen!!..we love you!!..and so does this guy.
I have been there in august…it’s a sight to behold ❤

We have similar rocks in Utah. What happened was that the rock was once flush with the ground, but volcanic activity and erosion washed away the softer sediment around the rock, so the rock grew taller over the millinea.
Ehh negative lol.
You do realise this thing had an entire palace, plumbing, ponds, pools built on it right? Yea the rock is not the marvel, the structures built on it are.
Great video thanks for sharing

Great work, keep going. Thanks for your time and effort to put this together for us.
I'm a sri lankan but yet to see this .. King kashyapa didn't build it. He just use the rock to hide from his enemies. Because it is a place with a many advantages in case of a war.

Thank you for sharing this video.
I've seen the base of the mountain and the feet at the bottom of the staircase.
But I've never seen the top of the mountain.
Your artistic rendering and footage of the location is awe inspiring.
Another good job, Universe! More than a year ago, Praveen Mohan made a few excellent YTB videos on this subject. (He has videos on many other countless subjects as well). I ask people to watch his videos, too. This guy is the best self-taught ancient historian, who has a brilliant; an extraordinary mind!
Wonderful, Keeps up.
I have been there. Video is well made. Fascinating history, mystery.
I love listening to her. 😊 Its a nice touch on the endlessly, informative topics. Topics too many disregard or wont even entertain.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for this video. I have been standing on top of this rock in January 1976 and it was just amazing. To hear an alternative story now about its possible origin is absolutely phantastic and I could believe every word of it.
True story started to coming out still many more to come
You gotta visit this place mate. There are so so many marvels than what it has been told in the video. For example. There are entire royal courts carved by Granite. Not carved and placed somewhere. They carved the entire royal court including king's seats, ministaers, seats, status, stares and many other structures on a huge rock which was already there. Even they have flatten the surface of the rock so smoothly to create the floor with the same granite rock. This place is simply unbelievable. Without some extreme engineering techniques, this site would have never been constructed. But we don't know what the technology was.
This is great video. Thank you for doing it very nicely
It looks like a boat to me from the aerial views. So amazing!
Yes it does.
Or a shoe!
Loved this episode!
Ravana is not linked only to Sigiriya. He is the greatest king as per legend. Many mysteries are buried through the whole island of Ravana. He is a intelligent person who acquired knowledge brilliant minds & meditation. King Kashyapa just renovated the place. As per legends elevators are build inside the rock. Kings elevator in gold & service elevators as well. First ever in the world.
After watching this I came to sense that they were similar to construction of Anchor Wat in Cambodia when it comes to irrigation and engineering capabilities.
I thought the same when i saw the moat, similar to what they have around the Angkor Watt temple perimeter...
Absolutely
Yep, and this video barely touched on how remarkable the gardens are. Check out Praveen Mohans video detailing the 7-8 various defense mechanisms of this place, starting with the garden and working their way up. The garden could be rapidly flooded to create one certain depth, which is also why the ponds and pools are different heights and sizes and not all asymmetrical, so if a warring faction came and didnt know the right path to take they could fall into one of these deeper pools, many which housed alligators.
This is amazingly B-E-A-UTIFUL! Thank you for clear logic for an explanation for our real history. Hats off to the creator of this channel and thank you for sharing all your research, I sincerely LUV your content.
Thank you xploring srilanka
we went to this site a few years ago. truly remarkable..there are many similar sites like this around the world shrouded in mystery. makes you think.
Yep, they sure displayed Ingenuity back then
I'm learning about my country from you .. thanks a lot. There were people with far better technology than what we have today. And then due to some reason they disappeared. And the same would happen to us. And it'll keep happening until the Sun dies. But if we seriously belive that we are the only human race with better resources, then Good luck to us all.
No, there were not people with better technology than we have now. Where is the evidence? Not a single tool or machine has EVER been found.
Grow up. Men made this, with human hands.
No replies will be seen or read.
Educate yourself.
Gave me goosebumps 💯 Unbelievable technology 👌
Εξαιρετικο video!!!!Κατατοπιστικο!!
Ευχαριστω θερμα!!!!
Oh Greek guy here..hello!
mom told me the story about that rock softening technology,
apparently it was known by some of the medicine men( weddu in sinhala), as the story goes it is a chemical derived from plants and other substances, one Englishman had followed a medicine man to a forest to find the so called chemical, he had followed the medicine man secretly but the medicine man had noticed he was being followed and started plucking leaves from random plants and trees to confuse the pursuer.
some did not want their knowledge from spreading alas they died with their secrets.
Pubbaa. You are exactly right. Several decades ago bird watchers viewed birds using a berry to carve nests in a cliff wall near Mayan temples in Central America. Anyone that can't explain ancient human technology pass it off as extraterrestrial in origin without giving credit to early humans that simply observed nature and duplicated it.
Rock softener doesn't exist.
@Broski Snowski that isn't softening.
I would be inclined to think that rock was already softer at that time when built, maybe it's a petrified huge tree
@@TheMoneypresident Does not exist today. But it did thousands of years ago. Ancient technology is still a mystery. No one knows what technology that was used, but even I can see the smooth edges and the form as if the rock was softened and just shaped like clay. Drills and other tech today can smoothen the edges and stuff, but not as good as seen. Clay is soft and hardens. Was this place made of clay perhaps and hardened afterwards? Or what? Still a mystery.
Super love your channel! ❤
Thank You… ☮️
beautifully created! thank you
Amazing! absolutely loved this 😀 you paint the picture so nicely 🙏
Thank you very much!
Wow, this looks like an amazing place! Nephilim certainly sound like they were involved here.
When it comes to getting things to the top though, as a carpenter, I would say a crane is the way to go and it would leave no stairs behind. That granite carving though, that is amazing!
Ropes and pulleys, but don't forget they knew about levitation and stone softening
Using frequencies and with stone softening also a plant based method.( There are birds that make holes for nests in rocks using a plant)
Definitely nephilim, probably sound wazmogrify, maybe even jelly bird spit trombipulation. Very likely gravitational inversion as a dependent phenomaly.
It bothered me a bit that the possibility of a crane - or several - of some sort is not mentioned, the narration focuses way too much on the absence of stairs, and there are enough examples of buildings erected on top of steep hills or such in recent times where we know that something like that was used to make it a good possibility. There seem to be enough mysteries in the place even without that to make it an interesting subject for this channel anyway, so not mentioning the possibility actually weakens the whole video in my opinion as it seems like an attempt to make the place look even more mysterious in order to sell the content.
And that makes the whole channel seem less reliable. I prefer content that looks at all possibilities, including the mundane, and ones offered by traditional archaeology ones, then admits if something has been possibly done the way the archaeologists claim, and then focuses on the truly unexplainable that is either totally ignored by them, or explained away in ways that are probably, highly, or totally impossible once you really think about it - or it is looked at by an expert of another field who should know more of the subject than an archeologist speculating about it does. Like in the case of the erosion marks around the Sphinx when a geologist noticed that they were done by flowing water, or like when professional stone smiths, having worked with stone for decades, have said that something could not have been possibly done the way archeology claims.
@@pohjanakka4992 This area of 'exploration' is more of a cult trying to find ways to justify their lost ancient Atlantis civilisation and, obviously, attract viewers for profit from that "mystery train". When you watch a lot of this stuff you realise that it's basically all politics and rhetoric - the "archeologist can't explain this" is a standard tag line, they say it all the time whether or not its true and that whole thing is a fiction anyway - there is no establishment there in this field - there's lots of different researchers often with contradictory ideas - there may be one leading theory of the moment but those often do and will change. Aye... it's very similar to flat Earth, everything's about the conspiracy and very little is actually about the artefacts, real evidence and research, what is there is all to underline the claim that "the establishment is lying to YOU ...WE HAVE THE SECRET... and you can have it too for ONLY $999 on our Sri Lanka tour!"
Maybe who knows he was anyway a demon king he might have invited even them lol
Did anyone made any studies about the virtues of that huge pool? It looks like the stairs go strait into it so it made me think if maybe has some healing or regenerating properties. Great video btw. To me this entire structure of sigiria looks like a machinery ready to take off... Are there any discoveries about what is inside?
There are so many caves but most of them are closed government and some blocks
My motherland ! ❤ I always believe sigiriya should be in world wonder list. There are so much things in the world we never gonna understand. I’m Egypt locals believe pyramids build by people who came from sky, sigiriya also the same. So that means RAVANA or his Asura generation build all this marvels in earth. But why ? Most of Sinhalese believe they are from yaksha (Asura) cast. Sri Lankan native people (wadda) knows lot of information about this locations. People need to visit this beautiful places and be proud what our ancestors did in 5000/6000 years ago.
Why is Ravana called an Asura? Because he punished the person who body shamed his Sister? He kidnapped the persons brothers wife to teach him a lesson? It is told that Ravana didnt even think of touching Sita as she was somebody's wife.? The Aryans called all the Thamizhls who did not oblige to follow or obey the Aryan kind of life as an Asura and later an untouchable. Ravana was a godly person who believed in lord shiva.
may I tell u something in native sinhala language RA means sun , VANA came from the sinhala word ''varna'', that means caste, SO in sinhala language RAVANA means the caste of sun people(in sinhala language they call it surya vansha(in sinhala surya=sun, vansha=caste), in egypt texts there is a quote that the lion people who came from the sky helped them to build phyramids, and also they have a god named as ''RA'',and surprisingly that egyptian god RA and Sri lankan RA vana both related to the SUN too,also ''lion people'' this name used to call sri lankans since past, also u can see a lion image in the flag is continuously comming from thosands of years back, sri lanka dont have proofs that SL had lions ,but for some reason , ancient SL people knew bout lions,yapahuwa kingdom ,kandyan kingdom, gampola kingdom all has lion carvings and arts of lions
@@learntherightful asura (yaksha/yakkha) is just a tribe name,they arent demons, they were one of the sri lankan tribes which native to sri lanka, other tribes were deva and naaga tribes ,now there arent pure yakkha people,cuz major ethnicity in SL sinhalese originated from yakkha tribe princess kuweni and indian odissa prince vijaya, so sinhalese have mixed genes of native yakkha and indian
@@skipper2594 sinhala language was not existed that time mentioned in the legends. It was created later......
@@yasithajayathissa9713 yes but sinhala means totally pali and sanskrit , sanskrit was there that time,
Edit: believe what you want, follow your heart or mind...or not. I don't think i should (or want to) judge.
Still, this is a great channel. I learnt so much.
Oh and unless if im mistaken, the mythology says that Rāvan took SriLanka from Kubher (the "god" of wealth, mentioned in the video).
@@crimsonmckenzie98 wow.. you remove everything you put here, and i come back to see me having myself a monologue.
So i did the same. If you meant what i think you meant, i think ive learnt the exact same lesson too. Ill be more careful in the future, it's stupid to be having pocketfuls of trust like you said.
I'll be removing my OP soon. Thank You. I guess i needed to learn my lesson the hard way
@@crimsonmckenzie98 that's your narrative.
Here's mine: I didn't see your email. And i kept refreshing thinking it'll come up. I don't know why i didn't see your email, not if youre saying you did put it up there.
So i posted another different reply here...directing you to another channel with the stories you wanted.
And the next thing i know, all your replies were gone. So i removed my replies too *shrugs.
Like I said, thank you. You taught me an invaluable lesson about trust here in youtube.
@@crimsonmckenzie98 meh .. they can find what they need from elsewhere. You're right, this is no place for serious discussions. I suppose it's not built for it.
No harm caused :) I learn and i learnt, so really: Thank You
I hope it was as educational for you as it was for me
@@crimsonmckenzie98 yeah idk... I worry that ill come back here to find all your replies gone/removed again, so i guess it's not in my place to say anything except i hope yours will be lovely too :) And thank you
King Ravana was one of the first known SL kings and this is one of his castles. He flew to India using dhadumonara an flying machine of sort. Raksasa [demonic] and naga [reptilian] used to have being living there. SL use to called Naga dweepa [Island of reptilian humanoids ]
No
It was built by the great King Kasiyappan
@@PhilShnider I dont know whether you are a Sri Lankan or not, but your backing is wrong. Mahawamsa clearly states that King Kashyapa the 1st built the Sigiriya complex. Writings on the mirror wall backs this statement. There is no Ravana in Mahawamsa. The earliest record of Ravana myth derives from hindu epic Ramayana. There is no archeological evidence to back Ravana myth. The Mahawamsa states Vijaya as the first Lankan king., and the list of subsequent kings goes on and on.
Sri Lanka was never called Nagadeepa. In fact Nagadeepa is an island in the northern province of the main island and is still called so to this day. Naga, Yaksha and Deva were human clans who inhabited the island prior to the arrival of Aryans.
@@ScepticusHistoricus yep. you're right
Bruh spouts myths like they were real 😅
Makes more sense to say that at the time Sri Lankan civilization had advanced technology than leaning into mythology. Not just in Sigiriya, there is extensive and numerous archaeological evidence of extremely advanced engineering technology during this period in the surrounding districts especially Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa.
Once one of the greatest kingdoms goes back more that 5000 years filled with technological marvels.
Correction : Ravana was not a Hindu Deity. He was a demon (Asura), who was killed by Lord Rama, who was the incarnation of supreme God Vishnu.
Those cuts or grooves you see on certain parts of the rock surface had been carved to support bricks plastered on to the rock, bricks fit into those grooves giving it a good hold on to the rock surface.
It is believed that an internal place existed (which had been later concealed by the British who captured Sri Lanka), so there should have been some sought of an staircase or more likely an elevator inside the rock.
I am a Sri Lankan.My eyes started to drop tears while watching this video. Who are we and where are we now after many centuries?
What the hell has happened to us?
Sigiriya is built by Sinhalese Knig Kashyapa in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Sigiriya is considered as the 8th wonder of world
But in reality Sigiriya is more and more greater than all the seven wonders
Sigiriya is consisted with various protection methods.
When it's invaded Sigiriya will be flooded with huge amount of water and crocodiles within it.
There is a star gate in the Sigiriya but English men destroyed and covered that in colonization period.
There are uncountable precious wealth in the Sigiriya.
Sigiriya is a great example of Engineering of Sinhalese
Sigiriya is a great example of art of Sinhalese
Sigiriya is great example of mighty of Sinhalese
Theruwan Saranai🙏
🌸Sabbe saththa bawanthu sukithaththa
Ancient wonders 🗿🧡you should protect your culture and faith so that no western or middle eastern ideology comes there
@@user-wm7ik6vh8j
Yeah !!
Thank you💖
Imagine what the inside looks like. I would love to know the real truth no matter how terrible or wonderful
I bet it looks like a cashew nut split in half would look if you were the size of a single celled organism surrounded by healing crystals and a bongo drummer from Wakefield called Terry.
Yes, you are correct. there are more valuable secrets hidden inside this rock
Need a huge correction : Ravana is not a God of Hindus , he is a great King of Sri Lanka ( Sinhalese ) ruled before 5000 years
no, he was an evil demon king.
This was a wonderful revelation. I only hope one day I can visit this wonder😊
I love watching Universe Inside You😃!
Cool video, could you do a video about Antarctica? Perhaps the holes found on Google Maps supposedly to the underground area Agartha.
We have a 40 minute documentary on Agartha and the Antarctica hole. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/QE3hR3rMHOI/w-d-xo.html
@@UniverseInsideYou Already seen it, i think there is more going on there then we know. Great video! How about operations High jump, Deep Freeze, Fishbowl? Lot of stuff going on there
The construction of the Ruwanweli great stupa should also be made aware here. You showed a picture in the beginning of this video of this Stupa. It was not an easy construction,it took many years to complete and it may seem simple from the outside but the surrounding of the area should be more 3D impressive if you can do that. Also this Stupa is some 80 meters deep into the ground with a very solid foundation. This stupa is believed to be the place where all remains of the Buddha scattered across the world will come back during the last day of Buddhism in the human world and vanish highlighting the teaching of impermenance in Buddhism even for the things so revered as the Buddha's. After this happens the world is said to be ravaged by cannabalism and incest and will be followed by human life expectancy immediately reducing.
Reducing age yes.Which is happening now
Let me introduce the most advance greatest structure in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 = The Ruwanweli Maha Saya
Ruwanweli Maha Saya is the place where 1/8 of Buddha relics kept and A full buddha real alive image is in the Ruwanweli Maha Saya 🌸🙏🌸
Please do a informative video on the greatest Stupa in the universe = Ruwanweli Maha Saya
