Wondering mysteriously about the paranormal aliens
Wonders, unsolved mysteries, aliens, UFOs and anything superhuman have always occupied popular imagination since ages. With reports on area 51, Brazilian government's official documents on existence of aliens and even alien abductions this is only getting more interesting. Well, enough has been discussed, argued and analyzed on many websites. But one obvious question would have come in every one's mind: Why most of the reports and sightings are from USA or just a few other countries? Why aren't there reports from countries like India? Is it a coincidence that such incidents don't happen in countries like India? Or is it that incidents in India are simply not reported because people are not aware what exactly happened?
Bhangarh in the state of Rajasthan is one of the most haunted places in India. The story goes like this: the charm of Princess of Bhangarh Ratnawati was matchless in the entire state. In the same region there also lived a tantrik (a magician using black magic) named Singhia who was desperately in love with the princess. One day, he saw the princess' maid in the market buying scented oil for the princess. He used his black magic and put a spell on the oil which would hypnotize the princess by her mere touching the oil and she would immediately walk towards the tantrik. But when princess got the oil, she threw it on the block of a stone as she had seen the tantrik eying the oil. As soon as the oil touched the stone, the stone started rolling towards the tantrik Singhia and crushed him. While dying, Singhia cursed the palace that there will be such an incident that everybody in the palace would die and their souls will stay there for centuries without rebirth. The very next year there was a battle between Bhangarh-Ajabgarh and no one survived in the battle or in the palace, not even princess Ratnawati. The ghosts of royal family have been haunting the place since then. There is a board put up by Government of India which prohibits people from roaming in the fort premises after 06PM.
Taj Mahal in India is famous for being part of the Seven Wonders of the World and as a symbol of love. The Mogul Emperor Shah Jahan in the memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal is said to have built the Taj Mahal. It was built in 22 years (1631 to 1653) by 20,000 artisans brought to India from all over the world. Many people believe Ustad Isa of Iran designed it." This is what your guide probably told you if you ever visited the Taj Mahal. This is the same story I read in my history book as a student in India. But there is also another school of thought saying, Taj Mahal well existed even before Mumtaj was dead, and it was build by Hindu Rajput kings'. Many of the structures of Taj Mahal show Hindu architecture. No one has ever challenged it except Professor P.N. Oak, who believes the whole world has been duped. It is not Mumtaj's tomb but an ancient Hindu temple palace of Lord Shiva (then known as Tejo Mahalaya).
Then comes the mysterious stone at Shivapur. Shivapur, a small town 180 Km far from Mumbai is not known for its green pastures or Sugarcane fields but for this mysterious and intriguing stone which lies near a dargah. The stone hardly weighs 70 Kg but cannot be lifted normally. It can only be lifted by 11 people and that too with their index fingers. Intriguing right..?? But its true...and it has been lying there for decades..!! People who tried to lift it in other ways failed miserably. Recently, a Japanese team examined this stone for over a week but went back not being able to conclude anything. And the Japanese media published widely about this stone. So what exactly is going on? Who is behind this? Let's have a look at its past to understand things...A few years back, there was a boy named ‘Kumar Ali' born in a middle class Muslim family. By the time he was 6 years old, he stated learning from a religious teacher. Ali was always in deep meditation and fasting. People started believing that he was born with mystical powers and started worshipping him. Ali died at a very early age. But before he died, he wanted to convey to the humanity, the essence of impartial love to mankind irrespective of caste and creed. He wanted to show that materialism can't stand in front of spirituality.
He told his brother..." Place a cylindrical stone near my grave. Only 11 people chanting my name can lift this stone with their index fingers to a height of 6 feet. People trying in other ways cannot lift it more than 2 feet high." and left for the heavenly abode. Since then, the stone has been lying there puzzling people over decades. Many a scientist tried to interpret the physical and scientific basis of the happenings but in vain. Ali's grave became a dargah and attracts thousands of people every year. People visiting the dargah lift the stone in groups of 11 with their index fingers effortlessly thus getting the taste of heavenly power. And the bottom line is "The stone remains there with all its pride having recorded its name in the top 10 unsolved mysteries of India."
Then comes the mystery of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, one of the top leaders in the Indian freedom movement. Officially, Bose is said to have died in a plane crash on his way to Burma August 18th, 1945. But there are many reports of he being alive many years after the crash. One version says he spent the rest of his life as a monk in an ashram at Kolkata. One version says he was kidnapped by someone and eventually died in exile. One version says he lived in Varanasi. The bottom line is that two questions remain unanswered till date. 1) Was Bose alive after the crash? 2) If it all he was alive, how would a man with such following and probably the Prime ministerial candidate (post independence) escape public eye?
The incidents narrated above testify the fact that India or for that matter any other country is not alien to such happenings. Our group of UFO enthusiasts found enough sightings in India. The reason we feel that these incidents have been ignorant or dormant is that they are not publicized or to put it in other way, there is no proper platform for people to discuss about these. Here comes www.sector21.in to fill the gap. Sector21 is a place where UFO enthusiasts and intellectuals from various corners gather to discuss, argue and analyze topics from intriguing and unsolved mysteries to alien and UFO sightings.

Are Murder Victims Ghosts? By Cherokee Billie
The answer is sometimes. Murders that go unsolved often leave the victim (ghost) with the desire for the truth to come out. They want closure for their family and friends. They want to move on into the spirit realm, but feel they cannot until their murderer has been identified and received Karmic or judicial punishment.
When a murderer has been caught immediately, it allows the spirit of the victim to be released and ascend into the spirit world. This is the big difference between solved and unsolved murders. As a psychic medium I have been communicating with the deceased for many years. Most of the people who contact me just want to know how their loved one is and if they have any messages for them. Over the years I have had several individuals' contact me who wanted to know how their loved one died and who did it. This is not always an easy task. Sometimes the murdered spirit comes quickly and communicates a great deal of information. Other times the spirit cannot tell what happened because it happened quickly or the memory of the event has left them. Many things get tangled for spirits because they are living between two different dimensions. A part of their spirit is still connected to our world and another part is connected to the spirit world.
Perhaps you have seen movies where the spirit cannot understand that they are dead or that they are waiting to identify the killer. So much of these movies are really based on spiritual truth. We do not get instant knowledge when we pass into the spirit world. There are also ghost hunter television programs where they offer information about victims in haunted houses and historical places. Many spirits remain on battlefields still fighting the other spirits.
One year ago I was contacted by a lady whose son was 31 years old and ruled a suicide by the police. She could not accept this because he was a happy content man and she had just seen him that day and he was fine. She asked me if I could channel his spirit, so she could ask questions about that day. After a few minutes I was able to connect with his spirit and he told her that he did not kill himself and gave identification about who had killed him. He was not able to answer every question that she asked, but apparently it was sufficient information for her. She took the information I got and contacted a private detective who started investigating all of the police findings. It turned out that many of the things that I had received in the trance medium state had been accurate. How I know is a year later she contacted me again and told me about the help the messages had been for her about his murder. She wanted me to ask her departed son more questions and I asked if she could send me any and all photographs of the crime scene. She did.
I told her that I wanted a few days to study these pictures and see what messages came through. As soon as I got the pictures I telephoned her and said," Isn't it interesting to see where the bullet hole went in." She said, "What are you talking about?" I told her that it was quite obvious that it was a bullet hole and gun powder around the hole in the photograph. Once I pointed it out to her she was shocked that all of these police and detective people never noticed this. She had not either. "I cannot enlarge this picture. Is it possible you could send it again or have somebody else send it to me." She had her grandson send the pictures to me again. One picture was particularly unusual because it was where her son was murdered and it was not a pleasant picture because it had blood and brain tissue all over the wheel of his truck. What confused me was of all the pictures there was one where a man was standing at the base of this wheel. It was impossible for anyone to stand in this position. I begin to dream about these pictures over the next week. At last we had our channeled session together. My first question to her was about the picture of the man at the wheelbase. She said, "There is no picture with a man in front of the tire wheel. What are you talking about?"
We were both on the internet together and I said, "Let me send this picture to you so you can see what I am talking about."
I sent the picture to her and she said, "I don't see anybody in this picture I only see the wheel."
Dumbfounded, because I could clearly see a man right next to this wheel, which I knew would be impossible for anyone to be standing by. I decided to try a different way to send the picture. Once again I sent the picture. "Cherokee Billie I don't see anything here other than the wheel," she stated.
"Let me describe this man to you." I told her. "He has on a black tee shirt and has short straight reddish brown hair and I can only see a quarter of his face and body."
"Oh my god that's exactly how my son looked." I could tell that she was crying at this point. "Why can't I see him and you can?"
"I believe he is indicating what I have always said that this is where the gunshot went into the wheel. He seems to be acknowledging that to me as I speak. There's no way someone could be in this physical position at the bottom of a tire wheel. Again he wants you to know he did not kill himself. I wish you could be here in front of my monitor and see what I am seeing."
"I wish I was there too." She said. She then went on about the rest of the photographs that were taken at the scene of the crime and asked about different people in the photograph. Her son communicated that the two killers were there in the photograph and which ones they were. I had received information in our last channeled session that he was killed because of a connection on the internet. He had videotaped his monitor of what he was seeing just before he was killed. I have requested that she send this videotape to me because it's possible that I will see or hear something that she cannot. I know that the answers I have given her have helped not only her have connection with her son, but it has helped the investigation.
This is one of the most fascinating changelings I have ever done. I have received information from murder victims before and it has helped their family, but this one keeps getting a wider scope and seems to be more complicated than the others which were usually murders over jealousy or random acts of violence.
So as you can see from these sessions murder victims can often communicate about what happened as best they can. They want to do this so that their spirit can transcend completely into the spirit world.
There are some exceptions where the spirits want to stay because they cannot accept their death. These are the ones that need to be helped pass into spirit and not stay trapped. There are ways to do this as I have learned over the years.
If you ever encounter a ghost realize they might have something to say and if you listen you may be able to help. Not all ghosts are violent and often they are just looking for someone to acknowledge them. Just because they have died does not mean that they have completed what they needed to do or say before going into the light. You may be the one that helps them transcend completely into the light.

Scary Creatures in Reality and Wild Imaginings
In the realm of mortals, life may seem to be closing in on black and white. We lead our lives with the orientation that only the quantifiable, observable and overt are deemed to be true. However, in the realm of the endless, human beings are mere mortal creatures and truth is not a matter of great importance. It is a world where scary creatures lurk, ghosts and mummies cause mayhem, and humans are at the mercy of unfathomable paranormal events.
Many ghost stories and urban legends about scary creatures have been circulating throughout the years. Despite these, people are still skeptical as to the veracity of the ghostly figures in these stories. Stories can't seem to stand against the strong mantra "to see is to believe".
These scary creatures are described as undead entities that reanimate restless spirits wanting to take revenge for their untimely deaths. Ghosts are just some of these undead creatures lurking in the shadows of urban legends. Ghosts are restless spirits of dead people that usually haunt the place where they once lived. As depicted in films and books, these scary creatures haunt the living to search for justice and closure for their tragic deaths. However, not all ghosts are depicted as such. In some cases, ghosts just "hang around" us without any intention of causing some loud screams. They are stuck in between heaven and hell because their spirits can't rest in peace until they finish their purpose here in the realm of mortals.
Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville, Kentucky is said to be haunted by scary creatures we call ghosts. Once a two-story hospital accommodating tuberculosis patients, this place was allegedly the dying place of more than 8000 TB patients from 1911 to 1945. The worst cases of these deaths occurred during the outbreak of the disease in World War II. Documentaries and paranormal investigations said that there are small, child-like features caught on camera. Scary wails and screams are heard in empty rooftops and patios of the sanatorium. Moving shadows that have substance and are able to walk across doors are allegedly seen in places where dying patients are situated.
The current plan for the sanatorium is to transform it into a hotel to target the haunted hotel crowd and regular hotel patrons.
Villisca in Iowa, considered as one of the scariest places on earth, is also said to be haunted by the ghosts of the brutally murdered members of the Moore family. The murder itself was arguably one of the most infamous unsolved murder cases in American history. On June 10, 1912 was the last day when 6 members of the Moore family and their two young guests were ever seen alive. They were dismembered by an assailant who viciously killed them with an axe. The heinous crime is still a mystery to be solved by the authorities as the killer is still unknown to this day.
To this day, the Moore house is said to be haunted by the spirits of its former inhabitants. Curious visitors of the "Villisca House" claimed to have heard voices of children who didn't exist. Efforts have been done to renovate the house, but it seems that the scary creatures in the "Murder House" hinder the plan since the weather-beaten house is the only witness to the nightmare that took place in the Moore household.
Whether ghosts or other scary creatures are just figments of playful imaginations or a validation that the paranormal exists is still under scrutiny and discussion. As for now, all we know is that as long as there are unexplained phenomena occurring and haunting our dreams and wild imaginings, more stories about these forsaken and scary creatures will be told.

These scary creatures are described as undead entities that reanimate restless spirits wanting to take revenge for their untimely deaths. Ghosts are just some of these undead creatures lurking in the shadows of urban legends. Ghosts are restless spirits of dead people that usually haunt the place where they once lived. As depicted in films and books, these scary creatures haunt the living to search for justice and closure for their tragic deaths. However, not all ghosts are depicted as such. In some cases, ghosts just "hang around" us without any intention of causing some loud screams. They are stuck in between heaven and hell because their spirits can't rest in peace until they finish their purpose here in the realm of mortals.
Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville, Kentucky is said to be haunted by scary creatures we call ghosts. Once a two-story hospital accommodating tuberculosis patients, this place was allegedly the dying place of more than 8000 TB patients from 1911 to 1945. The worst cases of these deaths occurred during the outbreak of the disease in World War II. Documentaries and paranormal investigations said that there are small, child-like features caught on camera. Scary wails and screams are heard in empty rooftops and patios of the sanatorium. Moving shadows that have substance and are able to walk across doors are allegedly seen in places where dying patients are situated.
The current plan for the sanatorium is to transform it into a hotel to target the haunted hotel crowd and regular hotel patrons.
Villisca in Iowa, considered as one of the scariest places on earth, is also said to be haunted by the ghosts of the brutally murdered members of the Moore family. The murder itself was arguably one of the most infamous unsolved murder cases in American history. On June 10, 1912 was the last day when 6 members of the Moore family and their two young guests were ever seen alive. They were dismembered by an assailant who viciously killed them with an axe. The heinous crime is still a mystery to be solved by the authorities as the killer is still unknown to this day.
To this day, the Moore house is said to be haunted by the spirits of its former inhabitants. Curious visitors of the "Villisca House" claimed to have heard voices of children who didn't exist. Efforts have been done to renovate the house, but it seems that the scary creatures in the "Murder House" hinder the plan since the weather-beaten house is the only witness to the nightmare that took place in the Moore household.
Whether ghosts or other scary creatures are just figments of playful imaginations or a validation that the paranormal exists is still under scrutiny and discussion. As for now, all we know is that as long as there are unexplained phenomena occurring and haunting our dreams and wild imaginings, more stories about these forsaken and scary creatures will be told.

The Roanoke Colony Mystery: Still Unsolved After Four Centuries
The island of Roanoke in North Carolina holds the secret to the baffling disappearance of a band of English settlers in the late sixteenth century. The early colony simply vanished without trace, and their fate has intrigued and baffled historians ever since.
The story starts in 1587, with the second attempt to establish a British colony on Roanoke Island. Two years earlier, English explorer Sir Walter Raleigh made an unsuccessful bid to establish a settlement on the Island, sponsoring an all-male colony which initially integrated well with the Native Americans already living there. However, the harmony didn’t last as the brusque manner of colony commander Sir Ralph Lane soon angered the local tribe. To compound the colony’s problems, supply ships failed to show leaving them hungry and disillusioned, so when Raleigh dropped in on the colonists in 1586 after a trip to the West Indies, they elected to join him on the voyage home to Britain. But, because the New World offered such potential profits, the English tried again in August 1587, and it is the settlement that was established by 115 men, women and children that is the subject of the Roanoke colony mystery.
Very soon after setting up the colony its governor - artist John White - returned to England with the intention of immediately returning with much needed supplies. However, due to the war with Spain he was prevented from setting sail for three years. When he finally arrived back at Roanoke in August 1590 he came across a totally deserted colony, with only one clue as to where the inhabitants had gone; the word “Croatoan” - the name of the friendly tribe that lived on the south of the island - was carved in a tree. However, despite White spending the rest of his life searching, no trace of the colonists was ever found.
Theories by historians include that they may have been killed by the local Croatoan tribe, or that, tired of waiting for supplies and feeling abandoned, they moved inland and married into other Native American tribes. Another supposition is that they were murdered by Spanish troops on a northern sojourn from Florida. Their fate may never be known and any evidence that may have supplied clues is now long gone. The site of their inhabitation was soon overgrown by vegetation and has now been lost even to the point where historians still debate the original location.
Some argue that the doomed settlement is now under water some half a mile out to sea, as the coastline has shifted significantly since the sixteenth century. With the location of the settlement unknown, it is impossible to dig for clues. Many people have travelled to the region hoping to find some trace of the colony, and if you fancy joining their ranks, make sure that you locate a hotel in Roanoke near the north of the Island, where the settlement allegedly stood. Who knows? You might be the one who finally unlocks the secret to the ill-fated Roanoke colony.
