TIBET visited by Aliens in the 15th century





Strolling through a beautiful Tibet exhibition my attention fell on a beautiful, gold-plated, copper mandala of the deity Yamantaka, an esoteric deity of Tibet, which first attracted me by its graceful beauty and enthusiastic "magical". The word mandala comes from Sanskrit and means in Hinduism and Mahayana Buddhism of Tibet, a symbolisation of the universe and the power of the gods, which later allows more remarkable conclusions. The vessel is from the Ming period between 1403 and 1424th

The vessel was in open state before me, his top spread out like a lotus flower which presents its nectar-rich core to the next insect foraging.
The interior of this vessel of God came to light Yamantaka. This is also shown in this mandala, as a god with a bull's head in the center of a further eight heads and 43 arms and 16 legs. In some hands, the outstretched arms stuck so called Dorje. It is believed that these Dorje, the power of divine beings, which they hold in their hands. In many old tales and stories, the power of the gods is often represented by these Dorje, who hurled lightning and thunder with loud noises on the adversary, a kind of weapon have been the gods. Dorje these sculptures are on display throughout the museum by the way. Here we see a Dorje alone, whether made of copper, jade or gold, set with plenty of adornments and precious stones, or just as a threatening gesture support of a divine being, or being mixed. But that only marginally.

The delicate elaboration of the statuette impressed me immensely, and slowly I could focus my attention on the flower-like covers that were littered with images of Buddha and other figures, who were all lined up nice and neatly next to each other and about each other.

Only two of the figures jumped out of the frame and were cross-presented to the actual alignment, it seemed as if these figures somehow suspended between the different representations. The arrangement, diagonally to the other, sitting or standing, actually represents figures clearly a state of suspension dar. Since these "floating" figures were not at the bottom of the image can be located, including any underlying figures have been presented.

On closer inspection I fell even more remarkable details of these representations on. It seemed as though this undoubtedly put human-like, figures in a kind of space suit.

The figures are similar to the modern NASA astronauts or Russian as if they had stood for the former goldsmith model.
From a kind of "windows" in the suit that really all parts of the body covered with transverse grooves, located on the head, you see the human face of weak


"Spaceman" look. Here, too, agree that modern space suits consistent with these centuries-old illustrations in gold.
