Have you ever wondered what it would be like to stay overnight in the
great pyramid. Apparently, someone did.

> >About halfway through I had my vacation come and off we went to Egypt and
> >my very first thought was to come and go to the pyramids. For those of you
> >who have been there, you can just visualize what it is like to be there and
> >for those of you who have not been there I will just begin to describe what
> >it is like. When you first start coming in on the bus you can see the
> >pyramids. They just begin to poke up through the trees. You can see them
> >like huge monuments. It's really spectacular as you begin to leave Cairo.
> >Cairo is on the east bank. Giza is the town which is around the pyramids on
> >the west bank of the Nile. The Egyptians would divide up, the west side
> >being really the place of the burial sites of the Pharaohs and the of other
> >world. Most of the things that were happening on the other side - the
> >eastern side was really the side of the life - of the now. So that's where
> >people farmed and lived their lives. The west bank was all sacred. So as
> >you enter over you can actually feel the energy shifting as you cross over
> >the Nile and move into the plateau of the pyramids and they are on a
> >plateau which makes them even more spectacular.
> >
> >The busses come up very close to the pyramids and you get out and walk
> >right up to them. The pyramids fill your whole field of vision. While you
> >are there people are trying to sell you camel rides, and sell you all kinds
> >of things for tourists. I just kind of walked right through and as I went
> >into the pyramids there is a place where the thieves had actually carved
> >out which is the main entrance. It's about a quarter of the way up the
> >pyramid. And then there is this carved out entrance that you go into and
> >then as you go into that you start to go into the smaller chambers where
> >you actually have to crouch down. So imagine yourself having to crouch down
> >a little bit and beginning to go through some of these chambers. It is a
> >very tight space. The temperature with a lot of people in there was a
> >little warm, but not uncomfortable. You had to go through these tunnels.
> >The tunnels are very squared. They are not really meant for people to be
> >walking in. They had giant plugs of granite that they would put into these
> >tunnels which you would use and then you would come along and you could go
> >two ways. You could go straight. You could go into the Queen's chamber,
> >which is where I went first. You would go straight in. The hallway would
> >get bigger and then you would go into a little doorway and to the right the
> >chamber would open. The Queen's chamber was much smaller. It has a little
> >pointed roof where it would go up. It also had the sarcophagus in it to the
> >right as well. Energetically, it was very peaceful there. I just sat down
> >and meditated for awhile. It was a time of the day where you didn't have a
> >lot of people there. I had the whole place to myself as I had come there
> >early in the morning. I just sat there and felt the energy and felt drawn
> >to move around into the chamber because at that point since there was a
> >little more activity coming in, I then decided I would go around and check
> >into the King's chamber next.
> >
> >In the King's chamber there is what they call a Grand Gallery. You enter in
> >and it just goes up almost probably 24 or 30 feet. You go from this small
> >claustrophobic tube to this very high spacious staircase that goes up and
> >up and up about two thirds of the way into the pyramid. As you begin to get
> >up in there it levels off a bit and then you begin to come into the King's
> >chamber. As you enter into the King's chamber the sounds are just awesome.
> >Every sound begins to vibrate. It is like you are walking into a big bell.
> >So as you walk the sound of your footsteps begins to vibrate. If you are
> >quiet enough you can practically hear yourself breathing in this space.
> >Acoustically, it's perfect. You can make an Om sound and the Om is just
> >carried through. It's so deep. Again, I just walked in and felt right at
> >home. I began to walk around and the sarcophagus is off to the right and
> >the position of the head and, again I was assuming, was up to the north. So
> >the sarcophagus was oriented in the north-south position. The sarcophagus
> >itself is the container where the King was placed and is a solid piece of
> >granite. I could walk up and hit it and it would just go bong. It would be
> >almost like a gong. That itself carries a lot of energy. Again I knew that
> >I wasn't staying at this time. I walked around. I knew in my heart that I
> >needed to spend the night in this place. I didn't know how I was going to
> >do it, but again I asked for the guidance for this to occur. Right when I
> >was leaving, I started to look down and there was this little door where
> >some thieves had tried to carve in and around the granite that encased the
> >King's chamber. So the little tiny hole was big enough for someone to crawl
> >up into but definitely would have taken some effort in there. There was a
> >gate there that was covering it but the gate was unlocked. So I felt like
> >hmm. I had a flashlight with me and I got my flashlight out and looked up
> >in there and I thought, "well that looks interesting" and this voice said,
> >"you are going in there." So I said, "I'm going to go in there, but not
> >now."
> >
> >So I went home and the next morning I returned. And I had prepared. I had
> >decided that I would fast from that point so that way I would clean my
> >bowels out. I had fasted the night before and hadn't eaten anything in the
> >morning. I came back and had the things I would need for spending the night
> >there. Again the gate was left open, so when there wasn't anyone around, I
> >opened the gate and crawled in and shut it behind me and kept crawling. Of
> >course I had no idea of what was in there and I crawled up and up and up.
> >It went into a little alcove that was above the King's chamber. I was
> >actually quite amazed that all the blocks that are on the outside and are
> >shown are perfect. They are well fitted together, but the blocks that are
> >on the inside of the pyramid are actually quite crude and rough which was
> >the way they built buildings in that part of the world. They would make the
> >outside perfect and finish the inside a little rougher.
> >
> >So I sat there and meditated. I meditated all day long. It was just
> >wonderful. I was just in this almost suspended animation. There was a very
> >nice energy. It wasn't rough or anything and it was just really calm and
> >peaceful. I meditated all day long right up above the King's chamber and
> >every now and then could hear some of the tourists coming and going from
> >where I was. I waited until I felt all the people leave and, actually, I
> >could hear them shut the gate. It was about 7:00 at night and I could hear
> >them. They have a big metal gate at the front and it echoed all the way up
> >through the Grand Gallery into the King's chamber up to where I was at. So
> >I just waited a little bit longer until it was absolutely still and there
> >wasn't another sound and that's when I came out. I crawled out of the
> >tunnel that I was in and I went directly into the King's chamber. And, of
> >course, it was just absolutely pitch black. There was no light whatsoever.
> >I did have my flashlight so I could get around. I turned it on and found
> >the sarcophagus and proceeded to sit in mediation in it. At that point a
> >voice said, "No, you aren't supposed to sit in it." So I laid down. It was
> >actually a very good fit. For those of you that have never met me, I am
> >very tall. I am about 6'5". But it fit perfectly! Now, of course, this is
> >not the coffin that the King is put in. This is the outer casing.
> >
> >And as I was laying down I bumped the edge and it reverberated this
> >wonderful tone -- "bohhmm" it was like a gonging sound. I laid down and
> >just started to meditate and before long I could hear this very high
> >pitched sound coming, like an "eeeeeeeeee" and I go "Oh wow! That's awful
> >quick!" You know, things are starting to happen. And I was laying there and
> >I said "Okay, whatever's going to happen, you know, just come on in." And
> >before long I realized that this high pitched sound was mosquitoes. And I
> >was like, "Wait a minute. There's not supposed to be mosquitoes in the
> >pyramids!" You know from the reading I have done, these forms of life where
> >not supposed to be here. And that's one thing that I definitely have a
> >problem with, mosquitoes. And I wasn't prepared. Now I did have a roll of
> >toilet paper, so I thought, "Oh, what I'll do is...because I don't want
> >mosquitoes chewing on me all night" and so I took the toilet paper and
> >started to wrap myself up so they couldn't bite. I wrapped my arms all up
> >with the toilet paper and I wrapped my feet because I didn't have socks or
> >anything on. And then I wrapped my face as well and laid back down again.
> >
> >And once I began to get comfortable I heard this "boom....boom" sound. And
> >I thought, "Oh, no...someone's coming." And so here I am, laying in a
> >sarcophagus all wrapped up in toilet paper, and someone's coming. My mind
> >is going, "Well, like, what should I do? Should I try to get back out?" And
> >I realized if someone's coming up the grand gallery and I get up I'll have
> >to turn my light on in here where it's pitch black and, of course, they
> >would see me. So I thought "I'm just going to stay put." And actually what
> >happened was I couldn't move anyway! It was like this energy was just over
> >me and I was there.
> >
> >And so I just stayed and listened and listened. And it was this sound you
> >know...like this "boom...boom" and I could feel it coming up the Grand
> >Gallery. And I began to rationalize, I'd say "well, maybe it's somebody
> >coming." Then I thought, "no, if it were somebody coming up the steps they
> >would turn on a light." And at that point I realized whatever it is, is not
> >human. And so it's not human, then what else could it be? Well, maybe it's
> >bats, so it's like bats flitting around and I'm hearing the bat droppings
> >or there's something going on. And as I listen deeper, it's like no, it's
> >too consistent. It can't be an animal or anything. So at that point I
> >realized that it's something beyond animal or human. And at that point I
> >also began to feel a fear coming in me. "Like, what is going on here?! What
> >is really happening?" And the fear -- now I've been in a lot of situations
> >before which were very fearful situations where people pointed guns at me
> >and everything. But the fear just started overwhelming me and I just fell
> >deeper and deeper and deeper into the fear. It was almost freezing me, it
> >was just overwhelming me with this fear. I was going, like wow, you know,
> >just being overwhelmed with this fear. And it got the closer, the sound of
> >it, I could feel it coming closer and as it got closer I became more
> >fearful. As it entered into the King's chamber, I could actually feel a
> >presence coming towards me. And my fear went deeper, and deeper, and as it
> >got closer, and closer I just had no idea what was going to happen.
> >
> >All of a sudden I felt this energy was above me and I could actually, for
> >the first time see it and it was like whirling. And it almost had this
> >figure eight type pattern. It was like moving around in circles and flying
> >over me and at that point I said, "Well, I could die now. Or I could just
> >allow whatever this is to happen to me. I mean this is the reason I came."
> >And energetically then it started, it was as almost like, I said, "okay,
> >I'm open to whatever happens." And the fear began to melt away and the
> >energy just started to come down into my heart. I felt this warmth and this
> >love all of a sudden just fill my whole being. And as the fear began to be
> >transformed, it transformed right into this feeling of love. As I began to
> >feel it coming into my body, I went back and I could hear the sound and the
> >sound that I was hearing the whole time was that of my heart. It was like
> >this sound that been transformed outside myself now and into the inside, so
> >it was really transfixed now right in my heart. And for the whole evening,
> >I just sat and laid down in meditation just feeling the energy within my
> >heart and feeling it come all the way through my body, just allowing myself
> >to receive whatever else would come in. And that's how most of this night
> >went, just being bathed in this love for the rest of the evening.
> >
> >I realized that soon it was going to be morning. I did have my alarm set in
> >case I would fall asleep or whatever but I didn't sleep at all. The alarm
> >went off and I said, "okay I'd better get back". I left the King's chamber
> >and went back into my hiding place and waited for the first few tour groups
> >to go through. When I felt it was an appropriate time I came out. And when
> >I came out, I realized that I was white. I was covered in this white dust.
> >I looked down at my arms and they were just totally white with this white
> >powder. I brushed it off as well as I could. I also felt it in my hair and
> >brushed it out as much as I could. I got as much of it off as I could yet
> >it was caked all over my clothes and everything.
> >
> >A few tour groups came through and I then walked out with one of them. And
> >then as I was leaving, the guards started to call me in Arabic, "Come
> >here!" and I pretended I didn't hear them and kept walking and walking and
> >walked out of the pyramid and they're yelling "You get back here!" I just
> >kept walking and walking and pretty soon, it was just such good luck,
> >because there was a bus just starting to pull away, and I ran for the bus
> >and I jumped on and it took off. I ended up back in my hotel room. When I
> >got in I looked in the mirror and I was just totally white. I had a beard
> >at the time and it was just as if someone had taken white flour and just
> >sprinkled me all over.
