It was rather surreal returning to Bosnia twenty years after we had found our apartment overlooking Lac Leman and I had left Sarajevo to set up my healing home after my profound dream, while Ronald had moved on to the next war in Kosovo.\u00a0 What was even more surreal was that, on arrival at Sarajevo and waiting for some group members in the bus which would take us to Visoko, the first woman who climbed in was Ilse from South Africa.<\/p>\n
It was exactly ten years before that I had met her at a tantric workshop I attended, the week before Ronald died.\u00a0 And here she was, sharing this experience with me in Bosnia.\u00a0 It was quite shattering as I went back in time to that weekend recalling my emotions as I contemplated coming out of my celibacy.<\/p>\n
During these twenty years the huge mountain at Visoko, shaped like a pyramid, which we had driven past and around so often had been identified in 2005 as exactly that.\u00a0 A pyramid, the largest in a complex of five.\u00a0 Though still largely unexcavated, the imposing Sunca Pyramid of the Sun<\/em> 220 at metres high, was beginning to receive visitors and volunteers from around the world.<\/p>\n I had first heard Dr Semir Osmanagic presenting his discovery and scientific research findings at an EarthKeepers conference in Amsterdam in 2007.\u00a0 He outlined at great length the struggle he was having with officialdom, academic skeptics and particularly Egyptologists loathe to sanction a \u2018pyramid\u2019 almost 100 m higher than Cheops, the Great Pyramid at Giza Plateau.\u00a0 Hence his significant effort for scientific collaboration with several reputed institutes in Europe.<\/p>\n One of the key problems arose from the evidence he was able to produce on the possible date of construction.\u00a0 It seemed irrefutable that the complex of pyramids in Visoko \u2013 the Sun, Moon, Earth, Dragon, Love \u2013 were constructed 30,000 years ago.\u00a0 This probability challenges far too many PhDs\u00a0 Dr Sam has set up a private foundation which managed the hundreds of volunteers streaming to Bosnia to participate in the excavation of almost 10 kilometers of interconnected tunnels, known as the Ravne <\/em>tunnels running under the complex.<\/p>\n Judy Satori had visited the Bosnian pyramids and produced a fascinating and compelling programme, which I listened to the year before while cat-sitting in Majorca.\u00a0 As I recalled my time in Bosnia twenty years earlier and our drives in those mountains around Visoko, my curiosity peaked.<\/p>\n And when Judy announced she was returning to Bosnia during the month before our planned symposium on the Sound of Light, I naturally signed up\u00a0 \u2013 for the week.\u00a0 An opportunity presented to tie up another loose thread \u2013 2019 was certainly offering many such opportunities.<\/p>\n The tour \u2018Ancient Legacy Renewed\u2019 drew a group of some 90 people from all over the world.<\/p>\n I\u2019d been more than a little interested in the scientific measurements taken in the Ravne tunnels.\u00a0 Dr Bovis (1871-1947), a French physician together with an engineer called Simoneton, developed the Bovis biometer, also called the Bovis Scale.\u00a0 This is a tool that measures the life force energy of any substance; food, medicine, living being, object or geographical location.\u00a0 The vibrational energy of 6,500 units on the Bovis scale is considered neutral.\u00a0 Above 6,500 the life force energy is positive and life enhancing. There are places in parts of the tunnels which have been scientifically measured at 55,000 Bovis.<\/p>\n I wished to expose the cells of my body to this huge increase in life force energy if possible.\u00a0 I was able to sit and meditate in the tunnels a couple of times in the areas of high concentration for an hour or so at a time.\u00a0 There was a purity in the air and an extremely high concentration of negative ions.\u00a0 Very comfortable.<\/p>\n On one occasion, standing with Judy and a small group, I felt the energy begin to enter my feet, spiraling up my legs, and I felt like a transformer.\u00a0 I was swaying in clockwise motion and my hands were moving rhythmically of their own accord as the energy left through them.\u00a0 This energy leaving my hands felt soft and gentle, lighter than the powerful energy entering me from the earth.\u00a0 It felt as though it was transformed by passing through my body.<\/p>\n The entrance to the tunnels seems to have been closed off around 6000 BC according to carbon dating of the filling material, and\u00a0 many mysteries are held in the network of tunnels and huge flat monoliths.\u00a0 The message in one ancient rune stone inscription has been deciphered.\u00a0 It reads.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are at a standstill\u2026.The gateway is closed\u2026We will have to defend and conquer until the time comes to go back through the Stargate\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n What a different Bosnia from the misery I had left twenty years ago.\u00a0 And what a different person I was from the miserable woman who had left in tears.\u00a0 This is not to say that all people are aware of the significance of the complex on their doorsteps.\u00a0 But I got a sense that many young people in the Balkans are spiritually aware.<\/p>\n There was a tall beautiful girl from Zagreb in the group, Vesna, with whom I had an instant connection.\u00a0 We spent\u00a0 many hours together, and I understood she was partly there to face her demons and come to terms with her experiences of spending many of her childhood years in bomb shelters in Zagreb.\u00a0 In our very different ways, we were both looking for closure, mine much easier of course.\u00a0 On a day when we went for an outing driving through the countryside, Vesna and I sat on the bus together and spent almost 18 hours in a deep processing of our pasts.\u00a0 I was struck by the beauty in this land \u2013\u00a0\u00a0 beauty which had not been visible during the years following the horrors.\u00a0 There were several times in the day\u2019s journey where Vesna\u2019s tears flowed and my shoulder came in useful despite the fact that she towered above me by almost a half a metre.<\/p>\n When we parted I gave her a copy of Into the Light<\/em> which as an acupuncturist in Zagreb, she constantly\u00a0 plays for her clients.\u00a0 A month later, Vesna joined us in Leysin for the Sound of Light\u00a0 symposium.<\/p>\n ***<\/p>\n During the week I had the opportunity to talk through plans for the following month with Judy.\u00a0 Her post-Bosnian schedule was going to be intense with a European Activation four-city itinerary to Dublin, London, Amsterdam and Copenhagen over a fortnight, before I would collect her in Geneva.<\/p>\n I was pleased I had encouraged her to take a week in my apartment in Thonon connecting with Lac Leman before joining us in Leysin.\u00a0 She is also human.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Another thread allowing closure with a visit to Visoko and the pyramid complex in Bosnia. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":592,"template":"","categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-591","episode_posts","type-episode_posts","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-part-4-aftermath-and-afterlife"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mylisteningheart.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/episode_posts\/591","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mylisteningheart.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/episode_posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mylisteningheart.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/episode_posts"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mylisteningheart.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/592"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mylisteningheart.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=591"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mylisteningheart.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=591"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mylisteningheart.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=591"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
