Like many other customs, we take marriages for granted. It’s just something that happens, right? But how did it begin? Who were the first people to get married? Have people gotten married since the beginning of time?

Earliest Marriages: Marriage of Convenience

Marriage is the institutionalized name given to consummation—and a convenience in the legal sense, since it reduces the chances of rivalry, in an evolutionary sense. Marriage protects and propagates property rights and bloodlines. This is also validated by the fact that certain royals were expected to marry the widows of their brothers in order to protect a particular hierarchy.

Alliances

Through study of history, we can surmise that marriage was merely a matter of building alliances between two families or clans in earlier days. When humans began forming civilizations and communities, they intermarried to form stronger bonds and expand their connections. That’s how it was in the royal families as well.

Marriage and Religion

Many of us also, automatically, think of marriage as something religious. After all, only a priest reads the final vows, right? It’s usually in a cathedral or someplace religious where you get married—such as temples for Hindus and mosques for Muslims. It must inherently be a religious thing, right?

The truth is, religion entered the horizons of marriage quite late.

In Christianity in particular, it started with St. Paul, who compared Christ’s relationship to the Church as that of two married people. In 1563, the Council of Trent passed a decree on marriage.

The Universal Appeal of Marriage

The fact that something like marriage has spread throughout the world tells us that it has a universal appeal. No matter which religion you look at or which country you take into account, you find marriage. Fewer ideas have an appeal that’s so universal and so readily accepted by most people—except for hedonists maybe.

When Did People Start Marrying for Love?

You might be surprised, but it’s only recently that people started marrying for love. By “recently,” we mean a few hundred years. The idea began with French troubadours and knightly or courtly romances.

It’s not that people weren’t marrying for love prior to that—they were, but mostly for practical purposes. Romantic love, by this regard, began sometime in the Middle Ages—that is, the 11^th century. Some even believe that the legend of Lancelot—who falls in love with King Arthur’s wife—has something perhaps to do with its origin.

But the most fascinating fact in all of this is the invention of Love as a concept—which is totally attributed to the French.

Why Marriage Works

One of the reasons we can conclude something like marriage works is that it serves as social glue. While many religions and customs differ over the issue of marriage—such as condoning or advocating polygamy and polyandry—they all have one common denominator: the family unit. The idea that the union—sacred, legal, or both—of two individuals cements the family is inherently pleasing to human values.

Humans are social creatures. Like other animals, we also have an obligation to bring up our children and reproduce—but perhaps unlike animals, we need a meritorious institution like marriage to give further weight to that obligation. Marriage serves this purpose.

Does that mean time travel isn’t possible—or does that mean we are just not thinking about it right?

Déjà vu, Clairvoyance, and Time Travel

When we think of time travel, we tend to think of time machines and space shuttles, black holes and worm holes. But more often than not, time travel occurs in a different sense entirely—such as when you feel “clairvoyant” about something or feel a pressing sense of “déjà vu.”

Clairvoyants can predict future events, and people experiencing déjà vu feel as if something has already happened before. To us, on the surface, all of this sounds like a miracle.

But what if there’s another explanation? What if we can tell what’s going to happen because we’ve experienced it and have retained some of its memory?

Alien Time Travel

When the extraterrestrial mercenary army spends too much time among humans, they sometimes experience a bleed-through. This causes some of their memories and experiences to transmit to us, and we end up retaining some memory of events in the future.

In the case of déjà vu—when you see something happening and feel like you have experienced it before, but can’t quite put a finger on it—it’s a little different. The bleed-through might be a memory or a traumatic experience as a victim of the extraterrestrials. Nevertheless, when it transmits, you retain it as your own—even if the experience is someone else’s.

Intuitive Time Travel: How is Non-Physical Time Travel Possible?

The actual question here would be: how is it not? We know, thanks to our scientists and researchers, that the biggest obstacle to time travel is our physical being. Nothing limits us like this mortal coil. We are restricted by our time on Earth (which is measly to begin with), by the problem of speed (even when traveling with the speed of light, time travel isn’t easy, hypothetically speaking), and the space-time conundrum.

On the other hand, what limits our consciousness? Nothing but our own willful ignorance. Once we shed that, all is open to us for exploration.

People with intuitive insight and high cognition have been able to train their consciousness to fly out. They have explored and experienced different planes of existence and parallel dimensions.

Based on this divine wisdom that they accumulate; they have been able to make near-accurate predictions. People of great intellect have been able to do this because they have sharp minds—why do you think so many artists and poets made accurate predictions about the future?

It has little to do with prophecy and more to do with a well-trained mind.

Discover More Hidden Truths

Nothing quenches the human thirst for knowledge like divine wisdom. Get Wisdom is a platform that provides you just that: a chance to ask the Creator all the pressing questions you’re too skeptical to ask anyone in real life.

For all we know, we might be living in a controlled simulation. A being might be controlling your mind and showing you things. But is there a way to determine this?

The Allegory of the Cave

The first person to ask this question—at least the first person who we know of—was the Greek philosopher, Plato. The situation he presented was thus: some men are in a cave, watching a moving picture. They have watched this moving picture all their lives. They know nothing else of the world, nor do they suspect that there is more.

One of them, however, breaks away. Once he has broken away, he realizes that the pictures he had seen all his life were only shadows—of things behind them that they could not see. Enlightened, he begins to walk away to the end of the cave, where there is a light. It is only when he comes out into this light that he enters the “real” world—the world of forms.

The World of Light

After Plato, many other philosophers and thinkers also took up the question of reality. Francis Bacon and Descartes (I think, therefore I am) are two of the biggest names. What’s interesting in Plato’s allegory of the cave is the symbol he uses for enlightenment—the light at the end of the tunnel.

The Lightworker healing protocol is also about working with light, not the generic new age light so often referenced, but rather the Divine Light of our Creator. Light beings—from human, angelic, and alien spaces—are all truly united under the divine wisdom of the Creator by coming unto the light.

When you use the Lightworker healing protocol, you’re directly working with the Divine Realm. You’re reaching out to the divine aligned light, beseeching the light for help and healing. In earlier days, people would reach out to divine representatives of this light—such as archangels, or Jesus, or Mohammed, and not some impersonal and vacant universal force.

Is This Life a Simulation?

Many humans have asked this question ever since The Matrix came out. After all, the movie was about a “chosen one” realizing that his world (which looks a lot like our world) was just a simulation. Interestingly, there’s been quite a lot of work—both philosophical and scientific—done in this regard. People have proposed reasons we could be living in a simulation, and even physicists are perplexed. Science and tech representatives like Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Elon Musk also believe in the possibility.

But what’s the truth?

The truth is: we might never know. Unless we come into a Divine Partnership, the truth will likely evade us. The layers of untruth and illusion don’t peel away on their own. Life might be like The Truman Show, but the truth doesn’t reveal itself unto idle folk. Seekers of hidden truth have to persevere and make sincere inquiries to uncorrupted sources .

Discover More Hidden Truths

A wise man once said, “There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” And he was right. The biggest mistake humankind ever committed was convincing themselves that they have acquired all the knowledge there is. Once you believe that you know everything there is to know, you don’t search for meaning anymore.

Seekers of hidden truths, however, know that such is not the case. We know that divine wisdom means there are more questions that needs answering. All we’ve got to do is ask the right questions.

The Get Wisdom forum allows you to ask these questions and discuss them with other like-minded individuals. You can even ask the Creator a new question. Your journey toward hidden truth begins with the Get Wisdom team—so begin today.

The Alien Franchise: Quick Rewind

The Alien franchise follows a crew of space workers in the future. They receive a signal from a nearby planet, explore it, and discover that an alien race has been desecrated and eliminated by another alien race. They leave the planet, but by then, it’s too late. The sinister alien race has already infiltrated their spaceship, and horror ensues.

The film popularized alien fiction and traumatized people. To this day, Alien has a cult following that’s rivaled only by other great 80s flicks. But it is also a movie that gave people many wrong ideas—and perhaps some right ones—about our extraterrestrial cousins in interstellar space.

Excessive Intelligence, Belligerence, and Colonialism in Aliens

Three things that the Alien franchise does get right are that aliens possess excessive intelligence, belligerence, and colonial ambition. Aliens, like they have manipulated humans to emulate, have ambitions of overpowering and conquering other species.

Some of them are also belligerent, hatching plots against other species. Finally, they are truly intelligent—but a lack of empathy makes their intelligence deadly.

Xenomorphs: Fictional Aliens

The franchise calls its creepy-looking aliens xenomorphs. These are creatures unlike humans—but clearly of superior intelligence. Ian Holmes (who plays an android in the movie) calls them the “perfect organism”—their structural perfection, he says, is matched only by their hostility. These beings are free from the chains of morality, ethics, and civics.

Audiences, of course, tend to focus more on the surface. On the surface, these aliens look scary.

A Freudian interpretation of their physical appearance is even more fascinating: when they are “facehuggers,” they look like the human female genitalia. When they grow into the second phase and become xenomorphs, they develop a phallic second mouth that shoots from their mouth that is lined with menacing teeth.

How Accurate is the Physical Iteration of Xenomorphs as Aliens?

Whatever we have discussed so far is, at the end of the day, an artist’s perception of what an alien species looks like. To give them credit, they do purport that there are several alien species that could look different from each other. We even see one such species (or their remains, at least) in the first movie.

As humans, we tend to see everything else as humanoid. Have our gods not been painted as humanoid—from Hindu to Egyptian and Greek gods? Similarly, we tend to think of extraterrestrials as humanoid: they move like humans, have limbs, and even a mocking, smug smirk that is very human-like.

In truth, we can conjecture that extraterrestrials might or might not resemble us or anything we know. We have learned there are many kinds of extraterrestrials. Some look quite human. Other species are reptilian or even insect-like. They can mimic us. And if there’s one thing we learn from the franchise, it’s this: they’re clever and almost always exceed us in their cunning.

Alien Fetuses: Yeah or Nah?

In the third Alien movie, Ellen Ripley discovers that she’s carrying the Queen Xenomorph’s young one in her womb. We have already explained that (in the Alien franchise) aliens need a living host (human or otherwise) as soon as they break out of their eggs. The fact that they chose a human woman for the purpose was particularly shocking for the audience.

But it isn’t entirely impossible.

One of Karl Mollison’s clients had something similar to report: the client had developed a bloating issue, as well as parasites in her digestive tract. She was curious whether this could have been a direct result of years of alien abductions. Was it because her womb had been used to produce hybrid fetuses? Was this even possible?

Definitely.

According to Karl’s research, the client’s bodily reaction was indicative of grief over lost children—parasites of her own that she had once retained in her belly. Interestingly, Ellen Ripley’s backstory in the Alien franchise is also similar: the captain had lost a daughter.

The result, in real life, is alien hybrids that retain some quality of the human mother. In the movie, too, we see some characteristics of the female retained in the newly born alien. Xenomorphs born of humans, for example, are shown walking on two legs. Those born of dogs/buffaloes are on-all-fours.

The Human Clones in the Terminator Franchise

While it’s just a movie, it’s interesting to see how fleshed out the human clones in the Terminator franchise are—down to the remarkable physical resemblance to humans: human voice, actions, movements et al. However, they are different in the sense that their emotions and emotional responses are not the same as a human’s. While they certainly look humanoid, they don’t feel human.

The Terminator in the first movie (a T-800) is depicted as an unstoppable killing machine. It makes a ton of rational and logical decisions, but these decisions are driven by an ultimate purpose: the destruction of humans.

Will Human Clones Have a Purpose?

One of the reasons human clones are such an effective tool to use against humans is because they are least vulnerable to suspicion. They look like us, talk like us, walk like us. Few people can recognize the nefarious agenda behind the façade.

In the Terminator franchise, the T-800 has only one purpose: the destruction of mankind. In order to achieve this goal, these androids aren’t just going around killing people. They don’t do it out in the open.

Instead, they plan ahead and execute in perfect privacy. The movie also puts forward the hypothesis that these clones can make judgments about humans—such as in the second movie—but can still not act against their underlying motivations.

Can Clones Like the Ones in the Terminator Exist?

We know that human clones exist. Whether or not they follow the same principles as the ones in the Terminator franchise is another story. For instance, we can perhaps expect bioengineers to make something like the T-800 in the future, but it isn’t like the things don’t already exist.

Beings that look like humans, talk and walk like us, and who infiltrate our ranks to spew their poison definitely exist.

Human-Like Versions of Aliens

One of the mistakes we make when thinking about human clones is the idea that they must be robotic. We think of androids—such as the ones depicted in West World and Blade Runner. While we busy ourselves with these ideas, a different species of human-like beings already exists among us: humanoid aliens.

Interestingly, these humanoid aliens are pretty similar to the ones depicted in the Terminator franchise: they are robotic on an internal architectural level. The fact that they resemble humans comes from the fact that they use human DNA for their biological makeup.

How to Know if You Meet Such a Human-Like Alien

Unbeknownst to you, you might have already met such a being in your life. You might not tell instantly if they are humans or not, but if you’re paying attention, there are clues.

Look at this scene from the Terminator: Judgement Day. It’s a hilarious scene, but it also tells you a lot about the behavior of humanoid androids. The boy (a human) tries to teach the Terminator to smile. Try as he might, the Terminator cannot. The reason? They have human intelligence and understanding, but they lack human empathy and feeling.

As is in the movie, these human-like alien clones have only one agenda: to sow the seeds of discord among humans and wreak havoc.

The promise of heaven has turned many a heart, but the mystery has never been truly revealed to us: what is this place that is promised to “good” people?

What We Can Conjecture

Even if we put aside what we have learned via channelings with the Creator, there’s a lot to deduce. In almost all major religions, heaven is a place that’s “higher” up in the sky. The idea of God—or Gods—is also often thought to refer to a being on a higher plane. A higher plane is the first association with divinity. When you leave for heaven, you’re supposed to “ascend.” There is, therefore, some sort of transcendentalism involved.

It is often cosmological and supernatural. Angels and other-worldly beings dwell in this place, and it is usually described as a very pleasant place to live in.

Further accounts vary: for some religions, such as Buddhism, heaven is a plane of existence and karma is a major player, responsible for balancing out energies and completing cycles. In Abrahamic religions, it is a physical place where righteous souls can make their way after living a good life. In Indian religions, it is akin to release from worldly sufferings.

The one common denominator among all religions is this: that it is a place where you no longer experience hardships or sorrow.

Imagining a Higher Astral Plane

Astral planes are a near paradox: they are both near us and far from us, both belonging to this world and placed beyond the universe.

The heavenly realm, too, is something like this. The literature and descriptions of heaven are so vast that people are often confused about what it really is. Is it a thought, like Milton implied in Paradise Lost—the mind is its own place, and makes heaven of hell, and hell of heaven?

Or is it a place where you get crowns of glory and everlasting life, like John Bunyan portrayed in The Pilgrim’s Progress? In Virgil’s epic, heaven isn’t even a separate place—it’s called Elysium, and is only the nicest part of the underworld. But in Dante’s epic, heaven is reached when he ascends and beholds the entire planetary mechanism—the literal universe.

So is it a physical place? And if so, then where is it located?

Heaven is more of a multiverse in its own standing: it exists on multiple planes, many-dimensioned and of many layers. It is a bit of an enigma in this way.

Why Do So Many People Desire Heaven?

People desire heaven because no place is more desirable. Imagine a release from your worldly infirmities and evils, duties and burdens, sorrows and regrets—that’s heaven.

When you’re on the same astral plane as the Creator, you exist within the same dimension and are awash with divine love—everlasting, unceasing, enormous—there is no better feeling in the world.

Not only is there divine love and eternal joy there, but also a deep understanding of things you might never have fully understood before.

There are more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamed of in your philosophy.

Help a Loved One Reach Heaven

We wish we could say Heaven is a place on Earth.

It’s natural and understandable that you’d want your dearly departed ones to reach that level of comfort and endless divine joy. Because there isn’t just one astral plane out there: lower astral planes—limbo and purgatory, underworld and hell and Tophet—call it what you will—also exist. Many souls get trapped in these planes and can not make it out without external, divine help.

Where do you think the idea of ghosts and restless spirits comes from? It’s the spirits of people who could never make it to heaven.

Luckily for you, there’s a way you can find out and be sure. You can help your loved ones reach heaven with the help of a spiritual channeler, so get in touch with us for more details.

Here are two recent channelings about heaven you could link to within our website. The link to the Dictionary source of the Shakespeare quote seems underwhelming. The link to the song “Heaven is a place on Earth” is a YouTube video that is currently unavailable. Maybe that doesn’t matter for SEO purposes, but certainly won’t reward a reader who clicks on them. Both channelings below have been added to our database of channelings:

If I could be in “full empathy” with Creator for just five minutes, what would I likely experience?

You would experience boundless joy, the overwhelming cascade of love emanating from us. You get this only in small measure because of your attenuation in the state of disconnection experienced by humans in physical form. The experiencing of divine love is bliss beyond description. This is why the higher astral realm is considered “heaven.” It is living with the Almighty directly with no separation. There can be a merging of energies and a very, very full and deep understanding of many things and often the greatest path to learning is sharing Creator’s perspective directly, as with self-acceptance, for example. The direct experiencing of the love Creator has for you will forever change for the better how you accept yourself. These are the joys awaiting you with enlightenment as you will no longer experience the disconnection that has plagued humanity down through the ages. The unity of the human family is a unity with the divine and all can function as a unit with the sharing, in a full sense, of all that is present.

What is the heavenly realm, the higher astral plane: a thought, a physical place somewhere in the universe which is just on a different vibrational scale? Where is it located?

It is a different vibrational plane and it overlays the physical you inhabit. There are multiple dimensions. These are internested and intertwined in actuality, so no one plane is that far from another. It is a kind of loop that has many layers, but the spiraling of the energies allows them to return to the origin in regular cycles of energy flow so one is never very far away from home even though the universe is vast in appearance and multiplied manyfold by the intricacies of dimensionality factored in. It is never very far from here to anywhere. This, in a sense, is a riddle and an enigma. You will come to understand this in time.

But only a few watch it to understand the Montauk Project. And if you think a show that has children in lead roles is no place to learn more about a project not many know about, think again. Because Stranger Things is based on that infamous project.

The Montauk Project—In Case You Don’t Know

The name derives from the Montauk Air Force Station. Classifieds shoo it away if you accost them about it. They’ll tell you it’s all a big conspiracy theory—which is also what it says on the Wikipedia page.

But Wikipedia is hardly a reliable source of information. Besides, anything that concerns a potpourri of time travel, teleportation, telekinesis, mind control, and aliens is always easy to dismiss as lies and fantasy.

We shouldn’t, however, forget that there was another air force base with stories surrounding it very similar to that of the Montauk. That was Area 51—a place the classifieds kept denying even existed, until they were forced to admit that it did. The thing with classified places like Area 51—where secret experimentation is carried out—is that they can’t stay hidden for long. Things get out. Sometimes, even shows get made.

The Strangest Thing About Stranger Things

On the surface, Stranger Things is a feel-good show about a bunch of children bonding and a girl with superpowers fighting monsters. When you dig deeper, however, and try to find out what inspired the show, you get an unlikely answer: The Montauk Project.

The similarities are hard to miss. Tongues started wagging way back in 1984: that sinister experiments were being carried out on children by the state, at Camp Hero. At first, it was more of a folk legend, something you’d tell children so they wouldn’t wander off on their own. Even Peter Moon’s book couldn’t convince people truly of what was going on at Camp Hero—and had been going on for decades.

But then, there were survivors; people who had lived through the experiment and were now recalling what befell them. Stories of space-time and parallel dimensions began to pour in.

Stranger Things deals with much of the same content: a girl escapes a secret military-esque base, and has been subjected to mind control experiments as a wartime tool.

Neat. At least it’s neat if it doesn’t happen to you.

Horror movies attract millions for a reason: they scare us, but they also pique our interest. If Aristotle is to be believed, tragic fear elicits a kind of catharsis in us. We like seeing our worst fears played out on screen because it absolves us, in a way, of having to directly experience them.

But is spirit attachment like what it’s shown in the movies?

Spirit Attachment in the Movies

The pattern of spirit attachment is so similar in movies that it almost feels like an archetype—as if all the movie directors and screenwriters were following the same formula.

A person starts hearing voices, develops inexplicable scratches on their body, doors slam and plates fly out of their designated kitchen cabinets, kids make invisible friends in the attic, and dogs bark at nothing, fathers go berserk and crosses turn upside down at 3:15 in the morning—you know the drill.

The line between truth and fiction is kind of blurred when it comes to the depiction of spirit attachment in movies and in real life. Many things and experiences are similar—if not necessarily the same. Yes, you might hear voices. Animals, too, are particularly susceptible to otherworldly entities, since they have sharper senses. Similarly, children are more prone to noticing and receiving attention from such entities than adults are.

Some ideas that are peddled in shows and movies are, of course, exaggerations. Spirits don’t sound like bad autotune, and they can’t make your head spin around 360 degrees. But one myth, in particular, stands out so starkly that we feel we must discuss it separately, in more detail.

Benevolent Spirits?

One of the newest ideas that horror movies seem to be peddling is that ghosts are good. This is both politically correct and problematic—because in painting spirits as benevolent, it makes it more likely for audiences to not be vigilant.

In truth, spirit attachment is never a “good” thing, per se. Even when you think the spirit that’s attached itself to you is a deceased friend or family member, you should know that danger is never far away—and that you can never trust a dark entity.

The best course of action is to reach out to a professional straightaway and cleanse your body of all such spirits.

Need Liberation from Spirit Possession or Attachment?

If you suspect or feel as if a spirit has attached itself to you, immediately see a professional spiritual healer. It’s best not to ignore the signs, even if people around you tell you that you’re “seeing things.” There will always be naysayers around you, but you should know that help is never far away.
