Check our Mysteries Blog to see the latest webpages and 'web articles' that have been UPDATED! (Click on the Mysteries Blog button on the left NAVBAR.)
This is a new site, with the first page written on May 1, 2008 ... and daily
the content in this site continues to grow and grow in terms of pages and
pictures (drawings, photos and videos), because this is a really large territory to explore and there are really plenty of 'Mysteries' to discover, explore, investigate, cogitate, contemplate, and study and ponder
about.
Start with a look at the 'Articles' section first, so that you get a feel of the place ... you know, what 'type of site' this is, how we 'approach' the matter and what 'method' we use to conduct our exploration, plus some general discussions of what is
meant by the word 'Mysteries' and by the term 'the World', how it may be possible to classify the Mysteries ('Taxonomy of Mysteries'), and about this and that (including the 'Mainstream' vs. 'The Fringe'). Additionally, near the top of the 'Articles' section, you can get access to several "web articles" on the various Mysteries, including sensational or sensationalized Mysteries
such as UFOs, Aliens, Alien Abductions, Loch Ness Monster, Bermuda Triangle,
Bible or Jesus Mysteries, etc. These are basically 'mini' web pages (remember:
we call them "web articles"), not because they are short in length or short on content, but because they
play the
role of supporting cast (Hollywood or movie term) or supporting fire or support
base (military term).
Besides the "web articles", we have the main web pages on each Mystery. These are accessible via the buttons on the left NavBar (which is present on every web page or web article) or via the TEXT-LINKS in our 'Table of Contents' at the bottom of the Home Page (only on the Home Page; no other web page or
article has these TEXT-LINKS).
SPECIAL WEB ARTICLE
If you believe that the Cold War is over, that the KGB is no longer active, that Russian or Soviet Communism is dead, that Siberian incarceration is over, etc., etc., etc. ... think again!
And if you think that the UFO phenomenon is just for the fringe crowd, the kooks, the crackpots, the pseudoscientists,
the 'need to get a life' layabouts, and the 'little old ladies who believe in
old wives tales', etc., etc., etc. ... think again!
The videos are a bit longish than perhaps necessary ... and there are some
boring parts, here and there, especially for the 'fast crowd' with byte-sized
attention spans ... but nevertheless the 9-part YouTube video is an eye-opener
of a documentary produced and aired during the last years of the 20th Century
(specifically, in 1998).
UFOs are serious stuff to the Russians ... so don't take things too lightly!
Especially in this new 21st Century ...
If the Russians think UFOs are real, and if they think they can
reverse-engineer UFO-Alien technology to their political, economic, military and security (PEMS) advantage ... well, the 21st Century might just become a Russian century, and we might
all just be sipping illegal Volka in underground resistance-movement hideaways
(much like the French Resistance folks back during the Second World War)!
Please do not assume or conclude that, just because I present many views (in
the form of textual notes and video clips) on this website, it means that I am
in agreement with or that I believe in the views offered-proferred ... That
would be displaying such a parochial and provincial attitude, towards this
website and towards me as well!
As an ex-military officer, I assure you that I am in the habit of reading,
viewing and digesting lots of stuff that I don't necessarily believe in ... We
call all the stuff we read, view and digest, 'military intelligence' ... The
same applies with 'business intelligence' in the business world, of course.
Our aim, as usual, is to find out what others (including our friends, enemies,
competitors, suppliers, strategic partners, business partners, etc.) believe in
... In order to do that effectively, we have to 'get out of the way', so to
speak ... we have to remove our humongous ego! ... else we will never ever
really have gotten started in our journey of exploration and discovery of the
Mysteries of the World
.
Here is a sentiment that I am wholeheartedly in agreement with ...
As I sit down to redo this book for an American audience, what rises before me
is last night's dream: I'm in a broad and beautiful land among many trees. It's
night. I look up at a huge old tree that's dark against the starry sky in its
detail of twig and branch. There is room enough here for all of us, I realize,
here in this big, intricately textured park. But I see that some want to cut
down the trees and level it out, so huge throngs of people can gather to gaze
up at the sun's glare. I watch dark twigs fingering the remote, untouchable
stars. A voice speaks: "Don't turn this into a Copernican Garden."
Waking up, I remember that I went to sleep wondering how to put this book
together. And I take "Copernican Garden" to mean a parking lot vista where
masses gather to honor the bright sun of traditional science with its old rules
as the center of the universe.
So I will not cut down the trees and level this book out. It is between you and
me [or you and I], a conversation as we stroll along in a moonlit fractal
garden past webby connections of thought that merge to patterned insight. Here
hidden delights nestle in scaling patterns of self-similar but never quite
repeating beauty. Here the tree of life hold stars in its branches. No matter
how huge, this garden stays human-sized because we have a place in it, you and
I. No need to cut down the connective forest and level things out for that
bright Sol [sun] of left-brain logic whose daytime dazzle — so
close and glaring — can blind us to the myriad constellations
beyond.

Merging East and West
(1994, 1996)
Here is an observation (adapted) made in the Acknowledgement page of a book ...
It takes many minds to produce a book [including an e-book, of course].
Although most authors [especially of non-fiction books and articles] would
prefer not to admit this fact, fundamentally they are merely 'synthesisers' of
accumulated knowledge.
The process of synthesising may unveil a new reality map, or paradigm, which,
in due course, will be used by future pioneers to unveil further paradigms.
This principle was summed up by Sir Isaac Newton when he remarked: "If I have
seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants".

As stated in our
Mysteries Blog
, the 'Mysteries of the World' Website does NOT aim to sensationalize any
particular 'Mystery', although we will examine and explore all possible
viewpoints pertaining to each 'Mystery' — including the fringe
AND the mainstream.
We will, of course, come to a conclusion (eventually!) about each 'Mystery' ...
even if that conclusion may eventually turn out to be 'as yet unresolved' or
'unexplained to our satisfaction'.
