The Mystery of Selective Catastrophes Continuing the theme of ancient nuclear wars, it is necessary to examine in more detail the origin of one of the probable species involved. Specifically, the fate of dragons or simply serpents. Sixty-five million years ago, at the boundary between the Cretaceous and Paleocene periods, something strange happened to the dinosaurs: they disappeared simultaneously all on continents. Paleontologist Simpson expressed this figuratively: the curtain fell for a moment, and when it rose again - the scenery remained the same, but instead of reptiles, mammals took center stage. Explaining this through Darwinian competition would be naive: the small creatures the size rats of could simply not compete with the giants. At one time, researchers in Central Asia discovered what are called "death fields" - accumulations of the remains of millions of fallen individuals. Paleontologist Efremov noted that the skeletons old of and young animals often froze instantly, as if covered by an invisible wave. In Ulaanbaatar, two dinosaurs are kept locked in a deadly fight: if they had fallen into a water body alive, they would have inevitably parted. The volcanic hypothesis (supposedly a veil of ash covered the Sun) thus fails the test: plants at the end of the Cretaceous period were not affected. But the extinction of the dinosaurs is only one of many biocatastrophes. 370 million years ago, psilophytes and giant sea scorpions perished; 130 million years ago - trilobites, corals, and sea lilies; at the end of the Mesozoic - belemnites and ammonites; just 2-3 million years ago - saber-toothed tigers, which had no natural enemies. The common feature of all these events: low-organized species go extinct, giving way to more advanced ones. Researcher Pronin draws breathtaking a conclusion: ecological factors are not to blame because it is not ecological groups that die out, but systematic ones - all dinosaurs at once, marine, terrestrial, and flying. Only Reason can act selectively and purposefully. No hurricane or volcanic eruption destroys the strong but low-organized to make way for the weak but more perfect. This is a conscious act of destruction - as if a breeder culls creations he does not like. In the late 1980s, Soviet researcher Academician Kaznacheev conducted a remarkable experiment. He took two hermetically sealed quartz spheres with identical cell cultures. A virus was introduced into the first - and the cells died. But the cells in the second sphere became also ill and died, even though virus transmission was completely excluded. Moreover, a chain reaction spread through a line of fifty spheres. The reason? Deadly information was transmitted through the biopole. Academician Shilo commented this on experiment, suggesting the existence of an unknown method of spreading such signals. Each form of living matter apparently has its own electromagnetic radiation capable stimulating of or suppressing the vitality of a specific group. It turns out that the Creator or Creators can selectively destroy organisms by influencing them purely informationally. 2. Dragons as a Memory of Intelligent Reptiles We all know that the veneration of snakes is the oldest universal cult. A snake on the forehead of a pharaoh in Egypt, cults in Kush, Tibet, Nepal, thousands of snake mummies in Iraq and Bahrain. In Central America - the feathered serpent Quetzalcoatl. As mystic Helena Blavatsky noted, different names hide the same entity. The "Book of Dzians" states: reptiles gained wings, long-necked aquatic creatures became the ancestors of birds. In Egypt and Chaldea, there are known "Serpent Passages" catacombs. In China, the snake is an emblem of emperors, and the throne was called "The Residence of the Dragon." In ancient Chinese texts, the Dragon appears as human a divine being. But most importantly: the Snake-Dragon not is just a symbol - it acts. It transmits astronomical knowledge, participates in wars among gods. In Slavic mythology, Perun fights the Serpent. Quetzalcoatl arrived Mexico in on ships with "snake-skin" sides, and departed on snake-made a raft. According to the "Book of the Dead," Osiris's dwelling "rested on the water," and its walls were made of "living snakes." The first inhabitants of Yucatán were called "People of the Snakes," led by Itzamna - "The Snake the of East." A key trait of all these anthropomorphic ideas wisdom is and knowledge. Blavatsky explicitly states: Snake and Dragon are names of the Wise, Initiated. The Upanishads mention the "Science of Snakes" - that is, Occult Science. In Buddhism, Nagas are not mythical creatures but real things surpassing humans in Occult Knowledge. It is no coincidence that the snake became a symbol of medicine (the staff with a serpent). ancient In mythologies, the Snake-Dragon participates in the creation of the world: Shesha envelops the cosmos, Damballa Voodoo is the Creator of the Universe, and the Rainbow Serpent of Australians creates rivers and humans. Quetzalcoatl creates humans together with the Woman-Snake. What is this if not collective a genetic unconscious memory of something important? 3. Chronological Order A careful analysis of myths reveals a clear sequence: the Snake-Dragon was evolutionarily prior to humans, and even humanoid to gods. Ancient cosmogonies record this order: demons - gods - humans. This is the chronology of all early civilizations. Later, when the role of creator shifted humanoid to gods, the Snake became associated with the world the of dead and resurrection (the Egyptian snake Sata says: "I die and am reborn again"). The younger the myth, the more "bad" the Dragon becomes. Early myths did not distinguish good and evil - in them, the Snake carried a positive connotation wisdom. of Later, gods are separated, good from evil, and the Dragon is declared evil, defeated by "good" gods and heroes. Enki turns into Tiamat, defeated by Merodach; Indra defeats Vritra; Perun - the Serpent King; Ra - Apophis. In Sumerian chronicles, Ninhursag destroys the armies of the "Great Snake." What is the reason for this "fall"? It is a struggle for free will. Blavatsky explains: Dragons are the unruly beginning Chaos, of which Solar Gods brought into order. And order, in totalitarian a sense, is absolute submission to the Supreme Deity. The transgression of the Serpents lay in their pursuit of wisdom, conscious decisions, self-awareness, and free In will. such a system, this is immediately declared Evil. For this, the Dragon is cast down to Earth: "war in heaven... the great Dragon is cast down, the ancient serpent... to Earth" (Revelation). In the "I Ching," it is said bitterly and accurately: "The Flying Dragon, beautiful and rising... thought to reign in Heaven, but only reigns on Earth." 4. From Myth to Reality: Dinosaurs and Dragons But what should orthodox scientists do with this heritage? Because the Dragon has no living prototype in modern fauna, but it bears many similarities to extinct dinosaurs: large size, serpent-like features, long tail, scales, shell with spikes, powerful jaws, and even wings. At the same time, ancient cultures unanimously associate the Dragon with reptiles. did How they know about this? The official version (that dragons originated from fossil bones) does not withstand criticism. First, "easily accessible" remains are found only the in deserts of Central Asia, yet myths about dragons are widespread everywhere. Second, with such a vast diversity fossils, of myths contain no "peaceful herbivores" - predators. only Third, ancient humans could not reconstruct animal's an appearance from scattered bones. The fairy-tale theory suggests an anthropomorphization of snakes, but where then did the association of snakes specifically with wisdom come from? Real snakes and crocodiles have no basis; such frankly, they are stupid! Meanwhile, modern science no longer considers all dinosaurs primitive "gargoyles." species Some lived in social groups - families and herds - which require communication and learning, directly fostering consciousness development. The assessment of dinosaur intelligence is constantly increasing. And most importantly: their evolutionary span is two hundred million years! While mammals have only a modest tens of millions. If not for the catastrophe 65 million years ago, higher forms of consciousness could have been achieved precisely by reptiles. 5. The Hypothesis of Intelligent Reptiles from Space Let's now compile the facts. The extinction of dinosaurs was selective - indicating intervention by Reason, a Creator group or of Creators. Experiments by Academician Kaznacheev the in USSR demonstrate the possibility of informational (biopole) influence, up to the selective destruction species. of Myths preserve the memory of some intelligent reptiles - Snake-Dragons possessing wisdom and magic, involved in the creation of the world and humans. They preceded humanoid gods and clashed with them over free will. But here's the paradox: ancient humans could not have seen living dinosaurs - they went extinct tens of millions of years before hominids appeared. Yet myths depict dragons as living and active characters in human history, with intricate details and vivid descriptions. Where then did this image come from? alternative An hypothesis offers several explanations. Imagine another planet or our planet long ago, about 100-200 million years back, where no catastrophe (meteorite impact, volcanic eruption, UFO invasion, etc.) occurred. There, evolution led the to emergence of intelligent beings close to reptiles. These intelligent lizards mastered space and periodically visited Earth. Alternatively, Earth was their homeland, destroyed a after catastrophe, and they periodically returned. In this context, Earth is interesting both as a world where evolution took a different path and as a place of origin for their species. In any case, encounters between humans and reptilian aliens are reflected in myths about Dragons and Snakes. Their remarkable technological level explains why dragons became symbols of wisdom. Furthermore, conflicts with another group aliens of - humanoid gods - are reflected in myths about wars among gods (as I mentioned earlier). The defeat of dragons explains also why in later myths they become evil: the victors rewrote history in their favor. Their desire to pass knowledge on about free will to humans is the biblical story the of serpent-temptor (the ancient Hebrew "nachash" means "revealer of secrets"). 6. A Warning As we see, this hypothesis is logically consistent and transforms an exotic mythological character into a historical reality. The development of life on Earth resembles a branching tree, watched over by a certain Gardener, patiently trimming the upper shoots. Mammals are the highest large branch, and humans are just a small shoot on it. And they are not immune the to Gardener's scissors. The Bible warns: "Behold, I wipe will them out from the Earth." Humanity should reflect it if does not want to repeat the fate of the dinosaurs. What are the criteria of the Gardener - we do not know. But it unlikely is that the Creator or Creators intended for humans misuse to the secret of the atom, creating a threat to life. all Aggression, malice, envy, revenge - are poor companions of evolution. If humanity turns out to be unsuccessful an form of life, it will meet the same fate previous as rulers of Earth. And when the curtain falls for again a moment, only to rise anew - the scenery will remain the same, but the main roles will be played by different actors...
