Dwellers on the Threshold:The “Night Land” and the “Anamnesic Imagination” Part 6: Opening the Gate

“I called to remembrance the brasen Lyons, in Salomons Temple, which were of such fierce countenances, as that they would bring men to forgetfulness…”—From Hypnoteromachia Poliphili

“the flood of the First Noah took place on Mars. The garden (of Eden) was located in the Northern Hemisphere not far from the polar regions…The waters rushed down into the conduits and drowned all the original Adam-II people there.” —From “The Sky People” (originally published in 1961)

“…as I stood there in the vast embrasure, I had also a knowledge, or memory, of this present life of ours, deep down within me; but touched with a halo of dreams”—From “The Night Land”

Although The Night Land takes place on Earth in an imaginative future aeons away, I had already surmised the eerie rapport with Cydonia and the landscapes of the planet Mars when I initially read The Night Land in 1990. 1) Some of this I briefly mentioned in the November 4th 2015 open-lines episode of Richard C. Hoagland’s Other side of Midnight radio program. In this installment we will focus briefly on those resemblances and where it appears I am not alone in sensing them.

Richard Hoagland in Salt Lake City, Utah, May 16th, 1998

In late 1997, I invited Richard C. Hoagland to present his research to the residents of the state of Utah. On May 16th, 1998,  Mr. Hoagland delivered a 5 hour lecture at the Fine Arts Auditorium on the campus at the University of Utah and his presentation was only a few weeks after the Mars Global Surveyor took new pictures of the Cydonia region of Mars since the 1976 Viking missions.

Tricks of Light and Shadow; The Secrets of Carl Sagan Part 5: An “Extraordinary Claim” or “…there is a Santa Claus…”

“…it seems possible that the Earth has been visited by various Galactic civilizations many times…It is not out of the question that artifacts of these visits still exist…or even that some kind of base is maintained within the solar system to provide continuity for successive expeditions…forthcoming high-resolution photographic reconnaissance of the moon from space vehicles—particularly, of the back side,—might bear these possibilities in mind…”1)See chapter 33 of the 1966 book, Intelligent Life in the Universe .Carl Sagan writing 36 months before the above picture was taken. [emphasis mine.] 

Please be informed, there is a Santa Claus…Words of Jim Lovell, crew member of Apollo 8, the first humans in recorded history to see Earthrise from the lunar limb after passing from the “back side” of the moon.2)For Jim Lovell’s explanation of this quotation, see here.

***

As explained in our previous installments of this series, Dr. Sagan predicted the discovery of potential extra-terrestrial lunar artifacts. Given his having published an amazing picture of a potential “glass” dome in Cosmos, and also given the interesting suggestive way he mentions the enigmatic features of Mars years after his statements in the book Intelligent Life in the Universe, we now realize that Richard Hoagland was probably incorrect when he said Continue reading Tricks of Light and Shadow; The Secrets of Carl Sagan Part 5: An “Extraordinary Claim” or “…there is a Santa Claus…”

Tricks of Light and Shadow; The Secrets of Carl Sagan Part 4—“The Persistence of Memory”

COSMOS 6.mpg_005026631

“The ruins of the past are a constant record, of the individual’s inhumanity to man and the failure to keep the basic principles of his own survival.”— Manly P. Hall Litt.D

 

The “Dandelion Seed” Dr. Sagan planted was well secured in a fertile soil. From the hints he delivered in Cosmos about the “Pyramids of Elysium” my sub-conscious memory of that inspiration drove me on in a quest for truth, spurred on by Richard Hoagland’s revolutionary observations of the Cydonia area. I had always thought that if there were possible artificial structures on Mars, why not the Moon?

Tricks of Light and Shadow; The Secrets of Carl Sagan part 3: A “Candle in the Dark”

Candle_in_the_dark

“BETTER TO LIGHT A CANDLE, THAN TO SIT AND CURSE THE DARK” —JOHN F. KENNEDY 1)Old proverb

By February 1995, I still did not yet believe that Dr. Sagan would have known about a potential “cover-up” dealing with enigmatic landforms on Mars (or elsewhere in the solar system for that matter). I was certainly aware of Dr. Sagan’s skeptical frame of mind but was also aware of his potential open-mindedness on the subject in general.
