Allegedly in 1970, Dr. Ray Brown, a naturopathic practitioner from
Mesa, Arizona, was scuba diving with friends near the Bahamas, in an area 20 miles from the edge of a submarine drop-off called
the Tongue of the Ocean.
During the dive, Brown became separated from his companions, and in trying to rejoin them, suddenly saw a strange
pyramid shape looming up against the aquamarine light. The pyramid was situated 22 fathoms down, stood 120 feet high, with
only 90 feet projecting out of the sea floor shifting sands. Brown was at first struck by how smooth and mirror-like the stone
surface of the structure was, with the joints between the individual blocks almost indiscernible.
Swimming about the capstone, which the Arizona diver thought looked like lapis lazuli, he discovered an entranceway
and decided to explore further. Passing along a narrow hallway, Brown finally came to a small rectangular room with a pyramid-shaped
ceiling. What was amazing was that the room contained no algae or coral growing on the inner walls. They were completely spotless.
In addition, though Brown had brought no flashlight, he could
nevertheless see everything in the room perfectly. It was very bright and well lit, but no direct light source was visible.
Brown's attention was drawn to a brassy metallic rod 3 inches in diameter hanging down from the apex of the center, and at
its end was attached a many-faceted red gem, which came to a point. Directly below the rod and gem, sitting in the middle
of the room was a stand of carved stone topped by a stone plate with scrolled ends.
On the plate rested a pair of carved metal bronze-colored hands, life-sized, which appeared blackened and burnt,
as if having been subjected to tremendous heat. Nestled in the hands, and situated 4 feet directly below the ceiling rod gem
point, was a crystal sphere 3-1/2 inches in diameter.
Brown
first attempted to pry loose the ceiling rod and red gemstone, but neither would budge. Turning back to the crystal sphere
he found it easily separated from the bronze hand holders, and left the pyramid with it. As he departed, Brown felt a presence,
and heard a voice from somewhere telling him never to return.
Fearing
that his unusual prize might be confiscated as salvage-treasure by the U.S. government, Dr. Brown did not disclose the existence
of the strange crystal or his experiences until 1975, when he exhibited the crystal for the first time.
He displayed the crystal only a half dozen times, but each time witnesses have
seen or have been sensitive to strange phenomena directly associated with it.
Deep inside the crystal form one gazes upon three pyramid images,
one in front of the other, in decreasing sizes.
Some, entering
into a meditative or alpha brainwave state of consciousness, are able to clearly see a fourth pyramid, in the foreground of
the other three.
The significance of the image may have been
hinted at by psychic Elizabeth Bacon of New York. In a trance reading on the mysterious sphere, she received the message that
the object had once belonged to Thoth, the Egyptian god who allegedly buried a secret vault of knowledge near the three great Pyramids of Giza at the beginning of
time.
One might view this as a 'record keeper crystal' and
'three' as third dimension. 'Subterranean' is an metaphor for the sea of creation, collective unconsciousness, grid matrix
of our reality, Hall of Records, etc.
Do the positions of the three pyramid images
in the crystal hold a key to finding a fourth, as yet unfound subterranean pyramid, that is the fabled Hall of Records? I
don't think so, but this story is laced with metaphors found throughout Crystalinks' files.
From the side, the internal images dissolve into thousands of tiny fracture lines, and Brown feels these may be electrical
in nature, like some form of microscopic circuitry. From still another angle, and under special conditions, many witnesses
have been able to see a large single human eye staring out serenely at them. Allegedly photographs of this eye have also been taken.
Dr. Brown's crystal sphere is the source of a variety of paranormal events. People have felt breezes of ionic winds
blowing close to it; cold and warm layers surround it at various distances; other witnesses have been phantom lights, heard
voices, or felt strange tingling sensations around it.
A compass
needle placed next to the sphere will spin counterclockwise, then begin turning in the opposite direction when moved only
two inches away.
Metals are temporarily magnetized in close
contact with it. There are even recorded instances where one person has been temporarily healed of an ailment by touching
the crystal sphere, but then the next person to come into its range took on the symptoms of the ailment of the other person,
as if the crystal could draw out and then activate human disorders at will.
Just what the purpose of the crystal sphere was, and what role it once played in the enigmatic instrument Brown found
inside the sunken Bahaman pyramid, remains a mystery, though of course there are some interesting possibilities.
One idea proposed is that the sunken pyramid once attracted, accumulated and generated
cosmic forces. The suspended rod may have conducted forces accumulated in the capstone; the faceted red gem at its end concentrated
and projected the energy to the crystal sphere below it; and the burned and blackened hands, showing the evidence of an energy
transfer, probably amplified the release of energies; while the crystal sphere acted as the tuner and broadcaster of the energies.
All that we know for certain is that the crystal sphere Dr.
Brown retrieved from this system is by itself testimony to a most sophisticated technology, for as experts at the Smithsonian
Institute in Washington noted, the technology for cutting quartz stone to the perfection exhibited in the crystal sphere was
not accomplished by our civilization until after 1900.
