    🤔" PLEASE HELP!!"Hey buddy I'm very grateful for your videos. Though I just found your channel today. Now a little off topic here but I wanted to catch you on a recent vid wondering if you could answer a question having to do with the Osiris chamber, and/or the Osirion. Now the water in the Osirion that has yet to be drained due to it filling up so fast. When they try to pump the water out. Now this water is not from the Nile, and even stranger it's coming from some huge source in the desert. Where there should not be water let alone water that is replenishing faster than 1,000 gallons of water per minute being pumped out. This massive pump apparently doesn't even put the tiniest "dent" in the water being removed. Also this water is different from any known water in the area, and has special properties from test analysis. Yet such a mysterious, and massive resivior is continually keeping the Osirion full. Now my question is have you read the book "ETIDORHPA" and if so do you think the water from the Osirion, and possibly the Osiris shaft could be coming from the mind-blowing vast lakes deep inside the Earth mentioned in the book ETIDORHPA?? If you have not read ETIDORHPA I highly suggest you do, it might contain answers to many questions. It was written in the 1800s, and was only distributed to very few people. It talks of knowledge, and answers to physics questions that we have only answered in the last couple years?? No seriously the knowledge and things this book explains should NO WAY have been known in the 1800s let alone barely today. Sorry to bother you, but this Osirion thing has been driving me crazy.
    Thanks for all your hard work.

    Is it me or does it show some signs of weathering? If so, could that help with the true date? I would think a stone of tuft/tuff hardness would take 1000's of years to weather?

    Hi again Geoff. It seems that there is a 3m high sacred stone on the right side called Iwakura. Supposed to heal body weakness when you hardly push it. Did you see it?

    • @thelandofchem
      @thelandofchem  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @WalkSlowly-nv6wf so Iwakura is a general term in the Shinto belief system that refers to rocks being capable of attracting and embodying nature spirits, thus making them the sacred objects of these shrine locations. But there was a large stone on the outside of the shrine. I believe I walked by it the very beginning of the video. Lots of deep esoteric wisdom contained in these Shinto teachings that will be coming up soon ;)

    Is the Floating Stone the same stone as that of the ditch around it? I'm curious.
    I noticed the stone is disconnected from the foundation. Is it possible that the stone fell over? The stone seems to be symmetrical from the triangular portion.

    These megalithic stones are really amazing! But I also marvel at the brilliant wood architecture of these shinto shrines and buddhist temples and pagodas. I know they are really masterpieces of woodwork (which seems to have been also a speciality of the celts). What do you think about their roof shapes, global geometry, proportions...I can't believe that they don't have any fonction too. (waveform? electomagnetic?)
    Do you know if they hold any metallic piece within, like staples in pyramids and cathedrals, or rods (other than lightning rods)?

    The priest mentioned the inside of the megalith being the treasure.
    Possibly the ‘unfinished’ face was due to be hollowed out, hence the counter-weight on the back, and the whole thing turned into a shrine.
    But maybe it got hit by an earthquake or cracked during construction and became unstable and so was abandoned?

    Carved out of hyaloclastite, a type of hydrated stone rich in black volcanic glass, formed during underwater or subglacial volcanic eruptions 70 million years ago, Ishi-no-Hoden is one of the three most mysterious or “weird” stones in Japan. The other two are Ama no Sakahoko and Yonku no Shinkama. Ama no Sakahoko, according to legend, is a spear planted on top of Takachihonomine Mountain, Miyazaki province, by the gods Izanagi and Izanami themselves, creators of the islands, rivers, seas, vegetation and human life of the Japanese archipelago, as well as the most popular Japanese gods. Yonku no Sinkama consists of four strange stone vats at Okama Shrine in Shiogama City, Miyagi Prefecture, whose waters, they say, never overflow, never splash , never dry out, and change color in certain situations, such as when earthquakes occur.

    I don’t think it’s separated…in fact I think that separation is why they stopped and didn’t remove the block…it’s most likely a natural crack in the bedrock …the stone masons probably thought it unsafe to continue working the material, the smaller stones wedged into the crack were likely put there to act as jacks …these smaller stones likely served two purposes 1 stability 2 expansion…these smaller stones could have been inserted gradually increasing in size in an attempt to control the fracture…in doing so the fracture may have taken an unplanned course 🤷🏼‍♂️… the large wedge on the back side of the block was likely carved so the block could be rolled downhill without it getting out of control, also to act like a fulcrum on flat land …the large vertical reliefs were like carved to support wooden jigs for transport (see Wally Wallington theories and videos ) ….to summarize, that seam appears to be a natural crack that prevented further extraction for use somewhere else

    Ancient Cooking Stones Help Reconstruct Earth’s Magnetic History
    BY SCITECHDAILYDECEMBER 11, 2012

    • @user-yv5kf4so2y
      @user-yv5kf4so2y หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Cooking stones that line Maori steam ovens in New Zealand are helping scientists study the history of the Earth’s magnetic field. The cooking process generates so much heat that the magnetic minerals in the stones will realign themselves with the direction of the current field.

    • @user-yv5kf4so2y
      @user-yv5kf4so2y หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The scientists presented their findings at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU). More archaeological searches are underway in order to find older ovens. They are called hangi. Abandoned stones at these locations could help elucidate the history of Earth’s magnetic Field, going back hundreds of years.

    • @user-yv5kf4so2y
      @user-yv5kf4so2y หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      There is a good record of palaeomagnetic data from across the world, but there is a gap in the southwest Pacific. In order to complete global models, more data is needed.
      The project involves retrieving information about the Earth’s magnetic field and its changes, going back over the past 10,000 years. For data on the last few centuries, pottery is usually used. When these objects are fired, the minerals in their clay are heated above the Curie temperature and they are demagnetized.
      As the pots cool down, the minerals become magnetized again in the direction of the prevalent field. The strength of the magnetization is directly related to the strength of the field. The first settlers of New Zealand, the Maori, 700 to 800 years ago, didn’t use pottery. However, the Maori have a cooking tradition of using a steam oven. The pits are dug in the ground and very hot stones are placed inside, covered with baskets of food and layers of fern fronds soaked in water. The oven is topped off with soil and left to cook for several hours. Gillian Turner, lead author, and her team experimented with modern-day hangi to see if they could achieve the necessary Curie temperatures to reset their magnetization. By putting thermocouples in the stones, the team showed that the stones got as high as 1,100ºC. At this temperature, rock-forming minerals start to become plastic.
      A compass was placed upon the cooled hangi stones and it was used to determine that re-magnetization had occurred. Hangi stones were carefully chosen, and the most popular types were from andesite boulders found in the Central North Island. These volcanic boulders were chosen because they don’t crack or shatter in the fire. They also behave best from a magnetic point of view, since they contain a higher concentration of magnetite.
      Hangi stones are likely to lead back to the 1200s. For deeper time magnetic data, they will need to find other sources.
