When Craig Muir spotted an object while hiking the summit of a hill, he thought he was having a close encounter of the third kind. However, while (apparently) not a UFO, the shiny, silver monolith in a muddy patch of Powys uplands was strikingly mysterious.

“When I first saw it, I was a bit taken aback as it looked like some sort of a UFO,” said Muir, a builder who lives in Hay-on-Wye nearby. “It seemed like a very fine metallic [material], almost like a surgical steel. The steel structure was almost 10ft long and looked perfectly levelled and steady, despite the weather being windy.”

Following a spate of monoliths appearing around the world in 2020 – in the Isle of Wight, Romania and the Utah desert – conspiracy theorists speculated that aliens could be behind the structures.

Since there is no way to drive up to the top of the Hay Bluff hill, Muir suggested it could have been taken by a group of people or dropped off by the helicopter on its spot.

New clues have surfaced in the disappearance of the gleaming monolith in Utah that seemed to melt away as mysteriously as it appeared in the red-rock desert.

“It didn’t seem like it was chucked in there, instead it has been accurately put in the ground,” he told PA Media. “However, there were no obvious tracks around it and one would think that there would be a lot of mess around it, but there wasn’t.”

No one has yet come forward to claim responsibility for the Welsh monolith, which bears a resemblance to the one that features in Stanley Kubrick’s film 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The latest monolith – a large, upright structure usually made of stone – is similar to one found on Compton Beach on the Isle of Wight four years ago, which was also described as being around 10ft tall.

The first monolith reported in Utah was originally spotted by state wildlife officials who were helping to count bighorn sheep from a helicopter.

The 10-12ft structure was discovered in the ground, tucked into a red rock cove, and was subsequently removed by the Utah Bureau of Land Management.

An anonymous collective called The Most Famous Artist took credit for the structures in the US in 2020.

#ADITI: The #Boundless #Goddess, #Mother of the #Adityas (The #Rig #Vedic #Gods)
enter image description here
#Aditi is not known for having a specific function, and unfortunately not much is known about her personality and her appearance is not described, besides being “Red hued like a dappled mare”. One thing we do know is that she is a supremely #ancient goddess, being the mother of the Rig Vedic pantheon. The circumstances of her #birth are certainly #mysterious.

The contradictory verses suggest she is not just a singular goddess, but rather a #ethereal #presence, an ancient #soul that #pervades the #various #realms, changes form at will, and perennially comes again to take birth.

In the Rig Vedic times she was called Aditi, the Boundless Goddess, in the Puranic times she was called #Adi #Shakti, the #Primordial #Power. Again she was born as the daughter of Daksha, taking the form of #Sati / #Parvati, the #wife of #Shiva. Today, #Shakta Hindus call her "Mother of the Universe", or simply, " #Mother". #maa

Yūgen is usually translated as “mysterious profundity.” Yūgen means the beauty that we can feel sense into an object, even though the beauty doesn’t exist in the literal sense of the word and cannot be seen directly. Yūgen is a sense not to enjoy the superficial beauty of an object, which is in front of our eyes but to enhance the beauty more impressive by imagining its latent beauty. For example, we think a flower is beautiful when we see it. This beauty is the superficial beauty. The flower has a past of withstanding wind, rain, and snow until now, and will someday wither, however beautiful it is now. Although the beautiful flower itself impresses us, the beauty will be more impressive than the superficial beauty, when we can imagine its past and future.

Since it’s close to Halloween, I decided to write a short story. Parts of this story may or may not be true, but what I have seen will be forever in my memory and lives within my dreams. It’s not a scary story, but it’s of a mysterious world local to this area and below us. I will not disclose the names or places. Some of you may have been there too.
My story begins nearly a few decades ago in 1993 on a pleasant autumn day here in Kansas City on a busy street. I was with someone I worked with and we were given an opportunity to remove the remaining retail display cases of a former major local electronics retailer for our project. For a small fee, we were given addresses, master keys, and alarm codes for the former superstores.
The stores still had the large brand name across the storefront for years after they locked the doors, much like we remember Blockbuster did. I don’t remember any “for sale” or lease signs in any of the stores. I assumed they are still privately owned properties of a wealthy family. Why is this important? We had to call them after we failed to disarm one of the alarm systems and faced the loud alarm horn. Apparently, someone in the family changed the alarm codes and walked us through how to disarm us.

They also invited us to check out the long stairs going down below the basement. They told us to grab the flashlights at the door, because there was no electricity beyond the bottom of the stairs. They asked us not to touch anything down there, but welcomed us to look around. And this is where the story begins.
We thought it would only take several minutes, but we were gone for a few hours and it seemed like a lifetime. There was a door at the bottom of the stairs, leading into a dark concrete tunnel that lead into caves and more tunnels. The first mile of the tunnels deep below the Kansas CIty streets lead through caves filled with old WWI supplies that appeared only several years old like we had gone back in time. We did not have cameras on us like we do today, but our experience will be with us forever. This is where the world begins.
But the tunnels never had an end. There were many deep into this underground world where others ages ago built communities and contributed to a rich treasure unlike anything seen on the surface above.
Several years later, I bought a house in southern Kansas CIty several miles away from the site. The house, like most others in Kansas City, had a room in the basement totally enclosed in concrete. The real estate agent explained they may be from the cold war era and serve as a shelter from a nuke. Some of us had converted these rooms into fully furnished entertainment rooms.

What I will never forget and what will always be with me is a section of crumbling wall that lead into the tunnels. This is where the story never ends. The tunnel would always call me and ask me to reach new places. After work many nights, I would travel further. This is where dreams and the real world become mixed. I would meet others and share a permanent bond in these tunnels. I sold the house a few years ago and it might even be on the market today as it’s been through a few owners. I guess the tunnels didn’t invite them as they left so early. But every time I close my eyes, the world below welcomes me again and shares its great treasures.
