Alien yoga?

 


“Wisdom of the Sages” is an ISKCON-related podcast from New York. In this episode, aired two years ago, the two hosts interview Michael Cremo, author of “Forbidden Archeology” and also a member of the ISKCON. Cremo´s book, dubbed “Krishna creationist” by skeptics, was an attempt to prove that human civilization is millions, perhaps billions, of years old as suggested by Puranic mythology.

In this podcast, Cremo also comments on other topics, however. He argues that the Earth *isn´t* flat or hollow, pointing out that the Hindu astrological writings describe it as a globe! But what about the Puranas, which suggest that the Earth is both flat, extremely large and has a large mountain of gold at its center? Cremo believes that this is how spiritually advanced beings see our part of the universe. The rest of us see it as a small globe… 

But if so, why can´t Puranic mythology about billions of years old civilization be a similar kind of situation? Maybe only demigods can see them?

Cremo also comments on UFOs and draws various interesting parallels to King Shalva´s vimana. One of the hosts then says that he would love to discuss the topic of lizard people with Cremo for another hour or so?! Hmmm…

Still, interesting.
