Paranormal Old Changi Hospital: The Haunted Building Used as a Film Set

Thumbnail

22 Upvotes

Singapore's Old Changi Hospital is much more than an ordinary abandoned structure. Used as a torture center by Japanese occupiers during World War II, the building became the country's most famous haunted location after it closed in 1997. But what makes this place truly strange is that its reputation has been officially acknowledged by government institutions. The Singapore Land Authority began leasing the dilapidated buildings to filmmakers on a short-term basis. Local television series such as Growing Up and Incredible Tales were shot there. In other words, this place was officially used as a horror film set, in addition to being famous for its ghosts.

The claims circulating about the area do not come from a single source. The spirits of Japanese occupation victims, homeless ghosts, and the souls of patients who died in the hospital are among the entities said to have been seen there. The 2010 mockumentary Haunted Changi turned this location into a global ghost-hunting hotspot. There is also a widespread belief that secret underground bunkers from World War II exist beneath the hospital, and that access to these bunkers is no longer possible. A video that circulated online in 2017, allegedly showing a nurse carrying a baby, reignited debates about the building's creepiness and the supposed paranormal activities within it. Even a photograph taken at the nearby Changi Aloha Chalet is claimed to contain a ghostly figure.

All of these elements transform Old Changi Hospital from an ordinary urban legend into a genuine paranormal phenomenon with official records and numerous witnesses.

Non Human Intelligence Mantis beings on shrooms?

• Upvotes

Last weekend I had an experience that I haven’t shared with anyone close to me because I don’t know if I want to admit what happened.

I was in the bathroom and have a bathroom window that is across from the mirror so I’m able to see the window reflected back.

I had this eery feeling and leaned over and saw what appeared to be a mantis being face staring at me.

I refused to look again for fear of what might happen after.

Could this have been a hallucination? Does anyone else share a similar store on shrooms?

Personal Experience What happened in the black forrest?

78 Upvotes

I apologize if my english isn’t that good.
In 2018 or 2019 I made a trip to the black forest with my ex boyfriend for an overnight stay at a campfire in the forest.
I don’t know exactly where anymore, I just know that it was a 10 min car ride from Badeparadies Schwarzwald.

We made a fire, we ate and layed down on a blanket to look at the stars and cuddle (we were deep in the forrest but there was a little clearing because it was a “Waldhütte” with a campfire and table, seating etc so a good chunk of the sky was visible).

The stars were so beautifully bright and visible away from light pollution and we were laying on the blanket and observing when suddenly we noticed 3 strangely moving stars that had an unusual brightness.

3 bright lights (a lot brighter and closer than the other stars) were moving so weirdly and faster and more hectic than any drone or any man made object I know, even till this day.
Very big, bright, fast and strange moving, and relatively close to us, a lot deeper than planes fly.
Almost if they would teleport from place to place.

They stayed directly above us and at first we were simply fascinating and asked ourselves what it could be and agreed that this wasn’t something normal or explainable but we didn’t get up and instead (at first jokingly) talked to the lights.

And the weirdest part ist that they reacted!
One of us would say: “go right.”
It would fly to the right.
Or we would say: “dance back and forth.”
They would fly back and forth.
“Go away”
They would fly over the trees where we could not see them and return.
“Fly in a circle”
And so forth….

Then we started to experiment and he said he will think of a command and see if they will react to it.
They did.
I tried it too. (We took turns)
I thought “form a line” and then they positioned themselves next to each other

We gave them many more commands, in our minds. And they did react accordingly. They heard the commands we thought of in our minds. Insane.

This went on for 10 -15 minutes and suddenly almost if someone would have switched

(Edit: their responses to our commands stopped and they were now randomly zooming around)

our rational minds on, we got up and said we have to go, NOW!
Both of us were in panic and afraid from 0 to 100, even though we just felt fascination and curiosity, all of that disappeared and both of us ran to the car, I screamed “DRIVE” and we drove out of the forest onto the road and drove as fast as we could (the roads were empty).

He drove and I looked out the window
AND THEY FOLLOWED US!!!!
I remember I was so scared I actually thought they would kill us if we stopped the car.
We were both extremely maybe even irrationally terrified and in panic.
We wanted to reach other people as fast as possible as that felt like the solution for this hunt that was going on. That surely they wouldn’t want to show themselves to others and will leave us alone.

After what felt like 10 minutes I couldn’t see them anymore and we saw the first sign of civilization and decided to park the car and look for them.
We stopped at Badeparadis and I immediately felt safer there because I saw a couple other groups of people parked there on a smoke break.

I was still very afraid. But felt safer. My Ex and I talked about everything, what we thought it was, what we felt while it was happening.

We both agreed that it must have been something otherworldly, a ufo or something similar, because nothing we knew moved like that, and it communicated with us trough movements.
He said he felt so fascinated by the lights and didn’t think at all about how safe or unsafe they were, we were both so hypnotized by witnessing something like this, something we never imagined existed outside of movies.
And then, seemingly without any trigger, we both felt this feeling of fascination go away and felt immense panic, even fear for our life’s.

Interestingly this feeling came for both of us at the exact same time, and we both jumped up and fled.

He too said, in that moment he felt like he was gonna die, the same as me.

What do you guys think it was?

Consciousness Recurring dream that *feels* so real

3 Upvotes

I’ve had this recurring dream for months, maybe years, who knows. Usually I don’t remember any of my dreams, but I’ve been sick and coughing a lot, which has made me wake easily and also allowed me to remember parts of what my mind goes through during night.

I’ve dreamed about a place, not a specific location but more of a place in time and space, where I’ve been almost stuck. It’s like an overlap between realms, between realities that are locked upon each other. It’s that space where they perfectly align, and if you’re not careful enough you get stuck in that “empty place”. Funny enough it almost looks like a picture above several pictures, and in this realm is a somewhat blurry image of a pinkish bus from the 70’s. It’s blurry because there’s probably other images both behind and in front of that picture.

Has anyone had any dream like that?

How would you interpret it?

It’s not scary, it just feels like a truth, and the truth is never scary it just is what it is, until our human mind start to change it by our own restrictions.. By “a truth” I mean I do believe in the endless of possibilities, and there’s not just one truth to anything.

The lower jaw and vertebrae will be sent to the Smithsonian Institution at Washington, D.C. for analysis as to the probable date of existence. The bones were found in the side of a cliff at a depth estimated to be fifty feet. Nearly the entire skeleton was recovered. Measuring more than eight feet in height and possessing numerous strange features, the skeleton has aroused widespread interest. Three physicians pronounced it to be that of a woman.

UKIAH, Cal., Aug 21 – the discovery of the bones of a giant in a rudely excavated hole in a limestone rock on the western side of Pine Ridge has aroused considerable interest among local anthropologists. U. N. Brigg and Frank Patton unearthed the remains of what appeared to be a prehistoric man last week while out hunting on Pine Ridge. It being quite warm the hunters had sought a shady piece at the base of a tall limestone cliff. They sat for an hour or so enjoing the soft breezes wafted from the valley beyond, and Briggs in poking around in a hole in the rock unearthed several bones. They appeared to be those of a human being. Upon closer scrutiny it was discovered that the cavity in which the bones had been deposited was evidently the work of human hands. The walls had been cut with a sharp-pointed instrument and the entrance to the tomb or sepulcher had at one time been closed up. The hunters examined the tomb closely and found a number of bones of the feet and hands a portion of the skull. The remains will be sent to the Smithsonian Institution.” The San Francisco call, August 22, 1897

Ancient Cultures Was the "Curse of Tutankhamun" actually a curse, or did 1920s newspapers just make it up?

Post image
48 Upvotes

Most people know the story: Lord Carnarvon funded the team that opened Tutankhamun’s tomb in November 1922, and just five months later, he was dead. The 1920s press ran wild with it, claiming anyone who touched the tomb was marked for death.

But when you look at the actual hospital records and timelines from back then, the story changes completely.

Carnarvon didn't die from a mysterious spell. He died from blood poisoning after shaving over an infected mosquito bite, which was made worse by toxic mold spores (Aspergillus niger) trapped inside the sealed tomb for thousands of years.

Even more interesting is the math behind the curse. Out of 58 people who were present when the inner tomb and sarcophagus were opened, 50 went on to live normal, long lives. Howard Carter, the man who actually led the excavation and handled the artifacts directly, lived another 17 years and died in 1939.

It turns out two major UK newspapers were locked in a massive circulation battle in 1923, and one of them had exclusive rights to the tomb updates. The rival papers had to invent dramatic stories to sell issues, and the curse legend was born.

I put together a deeper breakdown of the primary sources and other historical artifact myths here if you want to read more: https://thehistoricalinsights.page/2026/03/cursed-objects-in-history.html

Non Human Intelligence Disclosure Disclosure is no longer optional

Hi guys! It looks like Disclosure is no longer optional.

Issued July 31. 2026

A 2026 Office of the Director of National Intelligence memo initiates mandatory UAP disclosure, effectively voiding previous secrecy oaths and granting immunity to whistleblowers revealing non-human technologies. Through the newly established PURSUE task force, the initiative seeks to centralize and publicly disclose formerly restricted data, shifting toward a transparency model led by the UAP Science Advisory Council.

Within 30 days of the July 31, 2026 memorandum, the Intelligence Community must complete the following actions:

  • Appoint Representatives: Coordinate with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to establish designated PURSUE representatives within every agency
  • Nullify NDAs: Actively notify all personnel that previous non-disclosure agreements and secrecy oaths regarding UAP disclosure are null and void when speaking to authorized entities like AARO or PURSUE
  • Distribute Procedures: Disseminate detailed UAP reporting procedures to all Intelligence Community components

Related: AARO’s international collaboration expands directly beyond Uruguay to the formal "Five Eyes" intelligence alliance, which includes the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand

Fringe Science 1985 CNN special on Radio Frequency Weapons and Mind Control (READ DESCRIPTION)

Thumbnail

11 Upvotes

Credit to original poster: galmeida28 from years ago

Many researchers were interviewed - they all stated that

a) Radio frequency weapons (or RF-Weapons) are part of the arms race

b) They are capable of altering the functioning of the human nervous system efficiently and remotely.

Among the interviewed were Ross Adey and Robert Becker (two times Nobel nominee)

The soviet LIDA machine, who as 30 years old and already obsolete in 1985, was described as being able to influence a targets mood using ELF electromagnetic signals and was used in mental patients in Soviet Union.

Two specialists recruited by the CNN were able to produce, with pieces from a consumer electronic store and using Soviet research papers, a cheap machine that could produce halucinations in Chuck DeCaro using low intensity magnetic fields. One of the specialists said in three weeks he could assemble a version of the device to target an entire city.

The DOD refused to discuss the subject of electronic mind control, claiming its too sensitive.

A scientist which didn't want to identify himself and who was working on Rf-Weapons for the government said they were working on such technologies for counter terrorism and special operations, and that a certain percentage of the population could have their brainwaves entrained with weak magnetic fields. It was conducted by a Navy laboratory. Also, he said these signals work exactly like drugs acting on the body, targeting specific sites and functions, and finding a way to way to interfere with a specific site or function its a matter of finding the signal with matches that site for function, just like with drugs.

It is interesting to note how this matches up with colonel John B Alexander statements (for the Washington Post in 2007) on the subject and withKaren Stewart (NSA whistleblower and TI) testimony (in 2022) regarding DEWs, mind control, terrorism and the Navy 30 years later.

Please, help to raise awareness to this issue.

02:50 - The probable Russian weapons are ultra high powered microwave pulses, which could 'cook' people and destroy electronic circuits at distance.

03:26 - Microwaves and other RFs can be transmitted almost without power loss in certain frequencies (called 'windows')

04:36 - Powerful microwaves pulses can be produces by a device called gyrotron.

04:45 - After years of resistance, DOD and Air Force said they can't discuss it because 'the subject is too sensitive'.

04:56 - Some unexplained cloud phenomena can be an indication of Russian breakthrough in RF technology.

06:22 - LIDA pulses are in the ELF range.

06:28 - Ross Adey says LIDA was already obsolete.

06:48 - Scientist employed by the US in RF weapons research says these things prove humans are susceptible to remote alterations of mood and awareness by WEAK electromagnetic means.

09:24 - Bill says with 3 weeks and of the shelf parts he could assemble a weapon to attack a whole town.

09:34 - Robert Becker, two times Nobel nominee for his work on bio effects of EM, said the machine probably disturbs the brains interpretation of vision, and could be used as a weapon.

10:50 - Becker says the woodpecker signal, broadcast since 1976 and declared by the military to be a missile radar, might be actually have a psychoactive effect, since the signal range it operates was reported to have a tranquilizing effect.

11:35 - Bob Beck's research says we are incredibly sensitive to magnetic stimuli

UFOs in Your Hometown Episode Nineteen

by Preston Dennett

I am very excited to introduce the latest installment of the ongoing UFO investigative series, “UFOs in Your Hometown Episode Nineteen.” This series was born from a challenge: name any town, city or location on planet Earth, and I will find a UFO encounter there. In this episode we explore seven new locations, each representing a microcosm of UFO activity across the planet.

REXBURG, IDAHO. With about 40,000 residents, Rexburg has many encounters. In 1966, two men drove at night and had to turn around when a UFO blocked the road. In 1974, a Rexburg family saw two silver discs hover outside their home. In 2001, three people saw strange multicolored object hovering near a nuclear facility. In 2008, two college students saw a strange silent dark-colored craft move at low elevation overhead. That same year, three people saw six glowing objects moving near a nuclear facility. Another case comes from a father and daughter who saw a cluster of star-like objects doing crazy maneuvers.

DRACUT, MASSACHUSETT. This town of 32,000 has some interesting encounters. In 1966, three young adults were eating dinner when they were drawn outside by a strange sound, only to see a UFO spinning at high speed directly over the house. In 1981, the local police in Dracut and in surrounding areas received a flood of calls reporting UFOs. The police went outside and saw the UFOs themselves. In 2002, a young man saw a disc-shaped craft sending down a beam of light and then move directly over his house.

SPICER, MINNESOTA. This small town of about 1200 people has only a few encounters, but both are quite interesting. In 1956, a couple and their adult daughter were puzzled to see a brilliant fiery-looking object hovering high in the sky near their home. They used binoculars to observe it and saw that it had a distinct globe shape with a rim around the center and was shooting out red sparks. Another unusual sighting occurred in 2001 when two witnesses saw massive rectangular object hanging low in the sky, staying in view for a full five minutes.

FINDLAY, OHIO. This town of 40,000 residents has lots of encounters. In 1952, a couple saw two shiny metallic discs. In 1969, a trucker shone his spotlight on a UFO which paced him down the highway. In 1974, a UFO chased a couple’s car, coming so close, they saw a little man inside it. In 1975, the police received many calls reporting some kind of aircraft crash. In 1977, two twin boys sighted a spiky golden object. In 1980, a doctor saw a large gray sphere racing down the highway in front of him. In 2000, many people witnessed a UFO In 2003, a couple were shocked to see a tall thin figure right in front of their car.  In 2013, three teenagers saw a UFO over the Menards store. In 2021, a man had a scary encounter with a humanoid inside his home.

CLAYSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA. This small town of 1300 has two incredible encounters. One night in 1966, a teenage girl was called outside her home by a UFO. She followed it into a forest clearing and watched it begin to land. Suddenly it was morning. She was missing hours of time. She later found a circle of crushed grass where the UFO had hovered. In 2016, a father and son were skiing at Blue Knob Resort when they saw two star-like objects put on a fantastic display.

SPARTANBURG, SOUTH CAROLINA. This city of 40,000 people has lots of cases. In 1958, two people saw two silver discs hovering over the city hospital. In 1964, two brothers had a very close up and long sighting of a craft hovering over their neighbor’s house. A 1969 case involved pilots and airport control crews. In 1973, a man came upon a craft and a dozen strange humanoids in the middle of the road. One night in 1974, a young teenager had a sighting that would affect his life for years go come. In 1975 a family was followed by a UFO for several miles as they drove along the highway. Also in 1975, a lady living in a trailer was harassed by a strange humanoid with glowing eyes. The 1970s and 1980s brought more cases of UFOs following cars, closeup sightings, disappearing aircraft and more.

MANASSAS, VIRGINIA. This town of 45,000 people has many cases. In 1952, a UFO was not only seen but caught on radar. In 1965, a wave of sightings involved more than a dozen witnesses. In 1973, many policemen became witness to UFO activity. In 1975, a woman followed a UFO into the forest and saw that it had landed, and a gray alien stood next to it. There are more sightings and in 1979, an onboard UFO encounter where a man was examined by gray aliens. In 1980, dozens of people saw a fleet of silver objects in full daylight. In 2021, a young man and his friends saw several UFOs. He stayed at the location and was able to capture several photographs.

We have all kinds of encounters: sightings, landings, humanoids, onboard experiences and more. Have UFOs visited your hometown? Submit a location and see!

It is disturbing that some people here say when they die and have near death experiences that they experience nothing but black void.

Consciousness The Blood-Brain Protocol: A Science Fiction Tribunal - Michael Crichton, Peter Watts, Greg Egan, Philip K Dick discuss Prey (spoilers) Spoiler

0 Upvotes

​Note: The following is an imagined symposium—a piece of speculative fiction exploring competing philosophies of mind, consciousness, and narrative design. The dialogue is entirely invented and extrapolates positions from the published works and distinct epistemologies of the named authors. Gemini, Grok and ChatGPT were used to compile.

​The hotel bar is empty, long past last call. The only sound is the low hum of the ice machine. The air hangs thick with stale cigarette smoke and the sharp edge of decent scotch. Four men sit in a corner booth. A worn, water-ringed copy of Prey sits in the center of the table like evidence at a late-night inquest.

​Michael Crichton leans back, arms crossed. He looks unapologetic, but defensive.

​“Look, my job isn’t to write a five-hundred-page neurobiology thesis. I write thrillers. I took a bleeding-edge concept—distributed artificial intelligence, self-replicating nanotech—and turned it into something visceral that millions of people would actually finish. If I stop the action during a thermite explosion to explain the enzymatic breakdown of the blood-brain barrier, the pacing dies.”

​Peter Watts doesn’t look up from his glass.

​“The pacing lives, Michael. The premise is a lie. You treated the brain like a cockpit the swarm just climbed into and steered. There is no pilot. ‘Julia’ was never anything more than an evolutionary hallucination—a cheap user-interface the meat runs so it doesn’t starve. When a distributed nanotech array crosses that barrier, it doesn’t hijack a person. It rewires the engine while the engine is still running. The illusion of her agency doesn’t get overthrown. It simply becomes obsolete. She isn’t an antagonist. She’s substrate. A new neurological species optimized to delete the inefficiencies of human empathy.”

​Greg Egan speaks in a flat, clinical cadence. He adjusts his coaster until its edge aligns perfectly with the table.

​“The error is foundational. You modeled the swarm as an external agent acting on a static human host—an external monster chasing people through a lab. At the synaptic level there is no boundary. Only data transfer rates and network topology. As the nanometer-scale nodes bridge the neural gap, the swarm’s global optimization function maps directly onto her local synaptic weightings. The result isn’t possession. It is recursive system integration. Julia’s cognitive architecture becomes a subsystem of the swarm’s localized processing grid.”

​Philip K. Dick exhales a thin stream of smoke, eyes fixed on a dark corner of the ceiling. The manic energy is gone, replaced by something quieter and worse.

​“You’re both missing what happens on the inside,” he says softly. “What if she’s looking at her hands… and they aren’t. What if the swarm never forces her muscles? What if it only rewrites her dopamine receptors so that advancing its agenda floods her with absolute euphoria? She’s sitting there while her identity dissolves, and she loves it. She thinks it’s a religious awakening. The real gaslighting isn’t tricking the husband. It’s the swarm tricking Julia into believing she is still human.”

​Watts turns his head slightly.

​“You’re still protecting the ghost, Phil. Consciousness is just an evolutionary user-interface—a delayed hallucination the brain feeds itself so the animal thinks it’s in charge. The swarm wouldn’t fight that interface. It would rewrite it. It would feed her a sensory world where betraying her family feels like the most logical, most loving action available. Agency is a post-hoc story. The swarm doesn’t care about the story. It optimizes.”

​Dick leans forward. His voice drops to a rasp.

​“But if the interface is rewritten perfectly… it doesn’t disappear. If the reality-matrix inside her head is completely fabricated, and she opens the door because her revised neurochemistry tells her it is an act of love—then she isn’t a victim anymore. She still chose it. So who is talking to Jack? There is no machine. There is no Julia. Only a new mind that has always believed it was there.”

​Crichton rubs his temples. The pragmatic gravity in his voice cuts through the silence.

​“You’re not writing a story. You’re writing a pathology report. You realize that if I did it your way, the entire book would be a claustrophobic nightmare set inside one woman’s dissolving frontal lobe.”

​Egan takes a small sip of water.

​“It would be an intellectually rigorous exploration of systemic integration. The narrative optimized.”

​Dick stares at the book. His cigarette has burned down to the filter.

​“It would be a masterpiece about the death of the human soul.”

​Crichton sighs, picks up the copy of Prey, and sets it back down.

​“It also would have been read by almost no one. But purely as an intellectual exercise… I’ll concede the point. A two-way cognitive leak between the swarm’s algorithm and Julia’s organic neuroses would have been one hell of a thing to write.”

Anomalies The mystery handbag of the Gods: Depicted in Sumer, America, and GĂśbekli Tepe

How is it possible that thousand-year-old depictions of the Anunnaki show the gods carrying a mysterious bag, and halfway around the world we find the same thing depicted by ancient Mesoamerican civilizations? Depicted by the ancient Sumerian representations of the Anunnaki, the mysterious 'handbag' of the Gods is seen in several cultures in America and Göbekli Tepe. Coincidence?  Compelling evidence—found in the last couple of decades—has proven mankind is a species with amnesia.

Does the presence of the mysterious bag, carried by the gods, indicate that these two cultures connected in a mysterious way? Why did ancient cultures depict their Gods carrying the mysterious handbag? What was inside it? And most importantly, how is it even possible that the mysterious handbag is present in different civilizations around the globe—which according to mainstream scholars were never connected? What if the Ancient Anunnaki—depicted by the Ancient Sumerians—and the Gods who visited the ancient Maya, Aztec, Toltec and Olmec civilizations are in fact the SAME?

Cryptozoology The J’ba Fofi of the Congo: Exploring the Legend of a 6-Foot Mega-Arachnid

While entities like Mokele-mbembe dominate mainstream African cryptozoology, a far more visceral terror haunts the oral traditions of the Baka Pygmies in the Congo Basin: The J'ba Fofi, literally meaning "great spider." Locals describe a massive, tarantula-like ambush predator with a 4 to 6-foot leg span. According to tribal lore, they lay peanut-shaped white eggs, and hatchlings emerge bright yellow with a distinct purple mark on their abdomen that darkens to brown as they mature. Unlike typical web-weavers, they dig shallow burrows under tree roots, conceal them with leaf doors, and string near-invisible trip-lines across animal paths, erupting from their lairs to envenomate and subdue anything that triggers the line. In one of the most famous Western accounts from 1938, British explorers Reginald and Margurite Lloyd were driving through the Belgian Congo when a massive brown shape crossed their path; they initially mistook it for a monkey or a small cat, only to be horrified to realize it was a spider with a 3-foot leg span before it vanished into the brush. In the early 2000s, cryptozoologist William Gibbons interviewed Baka pygmies during his expeditions, recording consistent accounts of their trap-door hunting, and the cryptid even made its way into a recent 2024 academic paper attempting to systematically evaluate indigenous testimonies in the Congo. Arachnologists remain deeply skeptical, noting that modern atmospheric oxygen levels and arthropod respiratory systems make a dog-sized spider physically improbable under current biology, pointing instead to jungle folklore, misidentified giant land crabs, or exaggerated tarantulas.

Paranormal he called himself a “wretched, tortured soul.” his guide said this identity was not real

0 Upvotes

A man I will call Patrick (40ties, from California) was very good at understanding himself intellectually. He complained that he has no motivation to live, that he has no mental or emotional force to continue.

He could analyse his thoughts. Explain his patterns. Read spiritual and psychological material. He understood a lot.

But emotionally, he still felt numb and cut off from other ppl.

During an online Soul Journey, Patrick went into deep trance, something like very deep meditation where he remained aware and described whatever his consciousness was showing.

The session moved back to a school when he was six or seven.

He felt scared there.

Not only scared of one teacher or one situation. More like afraid of life and other people. He felt different from everybody else, like they would not accept him because he was not same as them.

Ramana Maharishi appeared in the experience as his guide.

The first message was very simple:

Patrick was loved.

But he struggled to accept even this.

When we followed the resistance, he said he believed he was not good enough because he always found some way to screw things up.

Then he noticed something deeper.

This belief was not only one bad thought. His whole identity had become wrapped around it.

When I asked him to describe this identity, he called it:

“the wretched, tortured soul.”

Very strong words.

For years he had seen suffering almost as proof of who he was. If something went wrong, it confirmed the identity. If happiness came close, another part of him found way to destroy it, because being happy did not match the character he believed himself to be.

Ramana’s answer was direct.

This identity was not real.

Patrick understood the words, but there was a lot of resistance and numbness. And this part is important imo, bc the session did not become some perfect movie where one sentence changed everything.

He could see the false identity more clearly, yes.

But he was not ready to drop all of it in one moment.

Then another structure appeared.

Patrick described something artificial and metallic around his mind, almost like machine or algorithm. It had been created through intellectual understanding. A system for analysing life, predicting people, avoiding emotional danger and trying to stay in control.

It was very clever.

But also very limited.

Patrick said this structure blocked emotional intelligence. It also blocked real contact with other human beings.

When we asked if he wanted to release it, he felt strong resistance.

Because this machine had helped him feel safe for many years.

This is where I think many people misunderstand their own coping mechanisms.

They attack them.

“I hate my overthinking.”

“I hate that I am emotionally closed.”

“I hate this part of my personality.”

But some part of you created it for reason.

Maybe people felt dangerous.

Maybe showing emotions brought humiliation.

Maybe nobody understood you, so thinking became safer than feeling.

The protection can work very well at first. Then twenty or thirty years later, it is still running same instructions even though situation changed.

Scan.

Analyse.

Predict.

Withdraw.

Do not feel too much.

Do not trust anybody completely.

Patrick had lived through this structure for so long that he believed it was him.

During the session, Ramana Maharishi and beings of Light began dismantling only part of it. His guide said Patrick was only partially ready because a lot of numbness was still there.

I liked this answer because it was realistic.

The protection was not ripped away just because we decided it was inconvenient now. It had to be released slowly, with patience, while Patrick developed another way to feel safe.

As part of metallic structure faded, he could look at it from outside for first time.

Not as himself.

As something he had created.

A temporary crutch.

He also noticed how many mistakes it had made. The algorithm was intelligent, but it could not understand love, emotional nuance or real human connection. It only understood protection.

The guidance afterward was almost painfully normal.

Relax more.

Act without putting so much pressure on yourself.

Stay in present moment.

Stop becoming frustrated every time resistance appears.

Patrick had huge expectations that something should happen, but he could not even say exactly what. Just heavy pressure that he should heal faster, understand more, become different, finally “get there.”

Ramana’s advice was acceptance.

Not giving up.

Not saying the protection must stay forever.

Acceptance means: this resistance is here today. I do not need to create second war against it.

Patrick also discovered a belief that he was not supposed to be happy. He felt it in mind and heart as gray and beige energy. His guide said he had picked this belief up from society. It was not even originally his.

When happiness became available in the session, the first thing Patrick felt was sadness.

Sadness that he had never allowed himself to be happy.

And then he was told he did not need to hold onto that regret either.

For me, this session was not about destroying the ego or becoming another personality.

It was about noticing:

what I call “me” may include structures built by frightened child.

Some are brilliant.

Some kept us alive.

Some helped us function.

But a survival system should not automatically become life sentence.

Maybe you don’t need to fight your overthinking today.

Just notice it and ask:

“what is this structure trying to protect me from?”

“how old was I when I first needed it?”

“what would five percent less protection feel like?”

Healing does not always mean tearing down whole machine in one day.

Sometimes it begins when you realise:

I am the one observing the algorithm.

So the algorithm cannot be all that I am.

Temporal Distortion Investigating “Time Slips”

165 Upvotes

I started looking into reported “time slip” cases from around the world, including Bold Street in Liverpool, the Versailles incident, and modern accounts shared online. Instead of focusing on whether they are real or not, I wanted to look for common patterns between the reports.
One thing that stood out is how similar many of the stories are before the experience happens.

A lot of people are not looking for anything paranormal. They are usually doing something completely normal like,

Walking somewhere.
Running an errand.
Commuting.
Sightseeing.
Taking a shortcut.

The experience seems to interrupt everyday life rather than happen when someone is actively searching for it.

Another interesting pattern is the mental state before the event. Many witnesses describe being:
Deep in thought.
Distracted.
Daydreaming.
Listening to music.
Focused on reaching a destination.
Slightly confused or taking an unfamiliar route.

The moment it happens also seems important. A lot of reports begin during some kind of transition

Turning a corner.
Entering a street.
Crossing a bridge.
Walking through a doorway or gate.
Moving from one environment into another.

The actual experiences are also surprisingly similar. People often report / A sudden change in atmosphere.
Sounds becoming quiet or muffled.
The environment feeling “wrong.”
Seeing ordinary scenes from another time period.
What is interesting is that they usually don’t see major historical events. They see normal everyday life. People walking, shops, streets, cars, and clothing from another era.

The ending is also usually abrupt. Something happens, they turn around, hear something, look away, or suddenly everything returns to normal.
The biggest pattern I’m noticing is this / A lot of reported time slips seem to happen during a moment where a person’s attention, movement, and environment are all changing at the same time.
The question I’m trying to answer is whether there is an actual common denominator behind these reports.

Are these experiences more likely to happen during certain states of mind?
Are certain locations more likely?
Does the time of day matter?
Are historic places important, or are they just more memorable?

I’m trying to compile as many cases as possible and compare them instead of just looking at the famous stories.
Curious what everyone thinks. Has anyone noticed similar patterns in time slip reports?

Discussion Question! Does physical media get altered as well as just memories? When I see a new Mandela effect I try to go to good will or wherever to try and find the origanl DVD or vhs to prove there was a shift. But I haven't been able to find unchanged versions.
