    This is the best surface representation of what some of the temples of the inner Earth realms look like. Great work by those that have dream travelled to the inner Earth, remembered and inspired by what they saw.

      +Sedona2014 Con te, and thanks for the comment, we will definitely be passing it on to all the members of the community that actively work in the Temples of Humankind. Each hall takes years to complete, and it is wonderful when you can feel what is being communicated!

    1:33 - "show us these temples or we will dynamite the entire hillside"
    2:14 -"once italian government knew of its existence, it ordered it destroyed"
    states and governments, the bane of civility.

      Since they never saw the interior, it is safe to assume that they were expecting it to be a dark, dank dungeon, filled with torture chambers and sacrificial altars. I mean, the only information that they had was "a cult that dug out a massive underground complex under the hills."

    Dylan, I watch the old videos that you host. Think the new ones are boring without you. Why oh why did you leave us? Did we enjoy you too much? Did you take on too many responsibilities? Will you ever host the show again? So many questions; so little Dylan.

    I used to live about five minutes' drive away during the time that they were in dispute (not with central government) but the regional authorities. At no time was blowing the place up ever threatened - even the Italian police would not put innocent lives in danger like that. The house concerned is not "a suburban house", given that it's not in any suburb, but is out in the countryside, up a fairly narrow, steep alpine valley.

    I was going to share this on Facebook, but then I saw it said, "This video is unlisted. Be considerate and think twice before sharing." So I guess even though it's a part of an email I received from atlasobscura.com I won't be.

    Do you think magic might actually exist?

    • @atlasobscura
      @atlasobscura  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Centipede Not in a supernatural way, no. But I think people can have and create experiences that might as well be magic, that feel indistinguishable from magic. So...kind of?

    can u post the link to the vice documentary? also aren't all religions cults?

    • @damanhur
      @damanhur 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +modestrocker1 You can find various documentaries created about us linked via the playlists on our TH-cam channel. As for the cult comment, given that we are not a religion, not sure it applies, but the only way to find out is to come visit and see for yourself. ;)

    • @modestrocker1
      @modestrocker1 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      i didnt make the cult comment the dude who made the video did. my comment is a general one about all religion. also i asked the creator of this video to share a link the vice documentary he talked about. dont know why you commented at all since i wasn't talking to you. have a nice day :P

    • @atlasobscura
      @atlasobscura  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +modestrocker1 Links to both Vice doc and some former members thoughts are in the info. I will say that most of what you see about Damanhur is pretty positive, even if you don't agree with some of their philosophy.

    • @modestrocker1
      @modestrocker1 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      i haven't said anything about their philosophy.... you were the one who made the cult comment, i was building on it by asking a question.
