http://911debunkers.blogspot.com/2008/10/debunking-myths-on-conspiracy-theories.htmlMany people subconsciously make the mistake of only seeing the issues concerning 9/11 in black and white, as opposed to shades of gray. This is known as the black-or-white fallacy. In this case, the false dilemma is: 9/11 was either carried out by Al-Qaeda or it was "an inside job."

Just because the evidence suggests that rogue elements of the US government and intelligence apparatus, as well as other international intelligence agencies, were involved, doesn't mean bin Laden and Al-Qaeda hijackers weren't involved.

In the fight to uncover the truth about 9/11 we must contend with individuals and groups that distort, omit and lie about important details in order to defend the official narrative - the 911 truth debunkers.

 

The NORAD-stand-down, various whistleblowers ("debunkers" just assert they are all confused lying with no basis), and peer-reviewed studies of the physical evidence centered around the destruction of the 3 World Trade Center Buildings in New York, make a strong case that the attacks involved substantial inside help.

“I think it’s implausible to believe that 19 people, most of whom didn’t speak English, most of whom had never been in the United States before, many didn’t have a high school education, could have carried out such a complicated task without some support from within the United States”
Former Sen. Bob Graham on 60-Minutes 



We might be wrong about where we suspect this all leads, but the "debunkers" are wrong when many essentially argue that it's acceptable for 70% of 9/11 family members questions to have never been answered by the 9/11 Commission. So of course, most have no qualms about promises made to 9/11 family members being broken by the Commission to investigate all whistleblower claims, which a substantial amount of the public find highly-suspicious at minimum, with many regarding the evidence as suggestive of complicity to varied degrees.

The below link proves that many thousands of family members want a new investigation. Likely the amount of people killed that day is outnumbered by these 9/11 victim's family members.

Unsurprisingly, the duh-bunk-turds hate even the best of the "Loose Change" films, but loose ends are no biggie.

The Washington Post reported on August 2, 2006 that:
Suspicion of wrongdoing ran so deep that the 10-member commission, in a secret meeting at the end of its tenure in summer 2004, debated referring the matter to the Justice Department for criminal investigation, according to several commission sources... "We to this day don't know why NORAD [the North American Aerospace Command] told us what they told us," said Thomas H. Kean, the former New Jersey Republican governor who led the commission. 'It was just so far from the truth. . . . It's one of those loose ends that never got tied."
So, if 9/11 didn't have an inside element, what's to stop such a scenario from taking place in the future when we get investigations that have attributes like these? 

It is therefore the purpose of this website to rebut the hollow claims of the so-called 911 truth "debunkers" and clarify what is known about the attacks for the benefit of those following the debate and also for the largely uninformed public. This site now features 9/11 truth related and not-so-related content. So please utilize our search feature (found also on the sidebar) to find a massive treasure trove of well-researched info on nearly every issue in the realm of 9/11 truth debate.

Ad hominems will be ignored, but well-formed rebuttals may be addressed (and that is a subjective matter) provided we have not refuted the points therein numerous times on this blog already.

Top 10 Paranormal Feats of Buddhist Monks

Top 10 Paranormal Feats of Buddhist Monks

Throughout history, Buddhist monks have been associated with extraordinary abilities that defy conventional scientific understanding. These paranormal feats, often rooted in deep meditation and spiritual practice, have fascinated scholars, practitioners, and skeptics alike. Below are 10 remarkable supernatural abilities attributed to Buddhist monks, each supported by historical accounts, eyewitness testimonies, and documented research.


1. Recollection of Past Lives (Retrocognition)

Some monks claim the ability to recall detailed memories of their previous incarnations, sometimes recounting names, places, and events that have been verified through historical research. This phenomenon, known as retrocognition, is considered a sign of deep meditative insight and spiritual advancement.

Example: Ajahn Piak, a contemporary Thai monk, reportedly has clear memories of his past lives, including previous births within Thai royal circles. His accounts align with historical records and are considered compelling evidence of reincarnation.

2. Attainment of the Rainbow Body

In Tibetan Buddhism, advanced practitioners are believed to achieve the "Rainbow Body" upon death, a phenomenon where their physical form dissolves into pure light, leaving behind only hair and nails. This is regarded as the highest level of spiritual attainment, signifying complete liberation from the cycle of rebirth.

Example: The 16th Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, reportedly attained the Rainbow Body in 1981. Witnesses claimed his body gradually shrank in size after death, a sign of spiritual transformation. Similar cases have been documented throughout Tibetan Buddhist history.

3. Telepathy and Mind Reading

Certain monks claim to possess the ability to perceive the thoughts of others. This telepathic ability is said to arise from deep meditation, allowing practitioners to connect with the consciousness of others without verbal communication.

Example: The Buddha himself was believed to have had this ability, using it to read the minds of his disciples to guide them more effectively in their spiritual journeys. Tibetan monks today still practice forms of mental connection as part of their advanced training.

4. Levitation

Levitation is one of the most famous supernatural abilities attributed to Buddhist monks. There are numerous accounts of monks floating above the ground, sometimes even flying short distances, as a result of deep meditation and mastery over physical limitations.

Example: Milarepa, one of Tibet’s most famous yogis, was reputed to have the ability to levitate and even fly over mountains. His teachings suggest that these abilities came from years of intense meditation and spiritual discipline.

5. Clairvoyance

Many monks claim to have the ability to see distant events, perceive hidden objects, or even gain insights into the past or future. This clairvoyant ability is said to develop as a result of deep meditative states that expand awareness beyond the ordinary senses.

Example: The Buddha demonstrated clairvoyance by recounting events that took place in the past lives of his followers, often using these visions to teach lessons about karma and reincarnation. Tibetan oracles, such as the Nechung Oracle, have been said to possess similar abilities.

6. Heat Generation (Tummo Meditation)

Tibetan monks practicing Tummo meditation can generate intense body heat, allowing them to survive in subzero temperatures without suffering from cold-related injuries. Scientists have observed monks drying wet sheets on their bodies in freezing conditions, a feat achieved through breath control and visualization techniques.

Example: Harvard researcher Dr. Herbert Benson studied Tibetan monks who could increase their body temperatures by up to 17 degrees Fahrenheit using Tummo meditation. This ability showcases the extraordinary power of the human mind over bodily functions.

7. Astral Projection

Some monks claim to have the ability to separate their consciousness from their physical body, allowing them to travel outside their corporeal form. This practice, known as astral projection, is said to enable monks to visit distant places, communicate with spiritual beings, and access higher realms of existence.

Example: Lama Govinda, a German-born Buddhist monk, wrote extensively about his experiences of astral travel during deep meditation. His accounts describe traveling to distant locations and interacting with spiritual entities.

8. Precognition

Through heightened intuition and meditative insight, certain monks claim to foresee future events. This precognitive ability is often viewed as an extension of deep spiritual awareness, allowing practitioners to glimpse the unfolding of karma in the material world.

Example: The Buddha predicted his own death, stating that he would enter Nirvāṇa in three months. His prophecy came true, and his passing was accompanied by various miraculous events, including celestial beings appearing to pay their respects.

Source: https://wisdomquarterly.blogspot.com/2024/09/paranormal-buddhist-monastics-of-tibet.html


9. Physical Transformation

Some advanced Buddhist monks are believed to have the ability to alter their physical appearance or manifest multiple forms simultaneously. These accounts, found in various Buddhist scriptures, symbolize the mastery of perception and the illusory nature of physical form.

Example: Padmasambhava, the founder of Tibetan Buddhism, was said to have transformed his appearance multiple times to teach different beings according to their spiritual needs. Legends describe him taking on different colors and sizes instantaneously.

10. Healing Abilities

Certain Buddhist monks are believed to possess healing powers, using mantras, blessings, and spiritual energy to cure illnesses. These monks often attribute their healing abilities to their deep compassion and spiritual purity, which allow them to channel positive energy into those who seek their aid.

Example: Drubwang Rinpoche, a revered Tibetan monk, was known for his healing abilities. People from around the world sought his blessings, claiming that his presence alone could relieve them of their ailments and suffering. His monastery remains a site of pilgrimage for those seeking spiritual healing.

Conclusion

While these paranormal feats may seem impossible to modern science, they are deeply ingrained in Buddhist tradition and teachings. Some researchers attempt to explain these abilities through psychology, neuroscience, or physics, while others view them as evidence of spiritual truths beyond materialistic explanations. Regardless of one’s beliefs, the stories of Buddhist monks performing supernatural acts continue to inspire awe and intrigue.

The Phantom Witness: 10 Chilling Cases Where the Dead Spoke from Beyond the Grave

The Phantom Witness: 10 Chilling Cases Where the Dead Spoke from Beyond the Grave


DebunkingDeath.blogspot.com

Murder investigations are supposed to rely on hard evidence, witness testimony, and forensic science. But what happens when the key witness is the victim—reaching out from beyond the grave? Throughout history, eerie cases have emerged where the dead seemingly helped solve their own murders. Whether through dreams, apparitions, or inexplicable discoveries, these stories defy explanation. Here are ten of the most chilling cases where the voices of the dead refused to be silenced.


1. The Greenbrier Ghost (1897)

One of the most famous cases of a ghost solving its own murder occurred in Greenbrier County, West Virginia. When 23-year-old Elva Zona Heaster Shue was found dead, her husband, Erasmus Shue, insisted she had died of natural causes. However, Zona’s mother, Mary Heaster, claimed that her daughter’s ghost appeared to her over four nights, revealing that Shue had strangled her. Heaster's insistence led to an exhumation, which confirmed that Zona’s neck had been broken. Shue was convicted of her murder, making this the only U.S. case where a ghost’s testimony contributed to a conviction.

2. Teresita Basa’s Postmortem Justice (1977)

Teresita Basa was found murdered in her Chicago apartment, her body burned and hidden beneath a pile of clothes. With no immediate leads, the case went cold—until a coworker’s wife, Remibias Chua, began speaking in a trance-like state, claiming that Teresita’s spirit was using her to communicate. Through Chua, Teresita named her killer: Allan Showery, a coworker who had stolen her jewelry. Skeptical police investigated anyway—and found the stolen items in Showery’s home. He confessed and was convicted, thanks to a message seemingly from beyond the grave.

3. The MacKenzie Poltergeist’s Murderous Clue

Greyfriars Kirkyard in Edinburgh, Scotland, is infamous for violent hauntings, particularly around the Black Mausoleum, home to the so-called MacKenzie Poltergeist. According to legend, a visitor to the tomb was whispered a name by an unseen force—later discovered to belong to a long-missing person. Upon investigation, police uncovered remains matching a missing person’s case that had gone cold for years. While details are scarce, the case left investigators puzzled over how an unknown force could have provided such an accurate clue.

4. The Curious Case of the “Ghost” Bullet (1913)

In Germany, a man named Andreas Bichel was haunted by recurring dreams of his missing sister, in which she urged him to dig in a specific spot near their home. He followed the vision’s instructions and discovered her remains—along with a bullet lodged in her skull. Authorities traced the weapon to her former suitor, who was later arrested and convicted.

5. The Phantom of the Lake (1981)

Hallie Latham Illingworth’s murder went unsolved for over 30 years after she vanished near Lake Crescent, Washington. However, local fishermen claimed to have seen a woman standing on the water's edge, staring at passing boats. When Illingworth’s body—eerily well-preserved due to the lake’s cold conditions—was discovered, forensic evidence pointed to her abusive husband. He was convicted of her murder, but some believe her ghost still lingers at the lake, waiting for justice to be served in a deeper, more spiritual sense.

6. The Chatroom Confession (2006)

In one of the strangest modern cases, a woman in an online chatroom claimed that a "ghost" had revealed the exact location of a missing person's remains. Police, skeptical but desperate for leads, searched the area described—and found the body exactly where she had said. To this day, authorities have never explained how she knew the precise location.

7. The Murder of Bridget Cleary (1895)

Bridget Cleary was burned to death by her husband in Ireland under the disturbing belief that she was a fairy changeling—an imposter sent by supernatural forces. Locals reported seeing Bridget’s ghost lingering near the site of her murder in the days following her death, as if seeking justice. Her husband's bizarre defense—that he was trying to drive out the "fairy"—failed to sway the court, and he was convicted.

8. The Red Barn Murder (1827)

Maria Marten planned to elope with her lover, William Corder, but she was never seen again. Months later, Maria’s stepmother began having dreams of her being buried beneath the floor of a red barn. Maria’s father searched the barn and found her body exactly where the dream had indicated. William Corder was arrested, tried, and executed.

9. The Ghost of Frederick Fisher (1826)

Frederick Fisher disappeared in Sydney, Australia, under suspicious circumstances. Soon after, a local farmer claimed to have seen Fisher’s ghost sitting on a bridge, pointing toward a nearby field. When authorities searched the area, they uncovered Fisher’s remains, leading to the conviction of his supposed friend, George Worrall.

10. The Ghost Who Spoke Twice: Zona Heaster Shue (1897)

Zona Heaster Shue’s case is so extraordinary that it deserves mention twice. After her ghost helped convict her husband, some claim that her spirit continued appearing in Greenbrier County, warning travelers of dangers ahead. Whether coincidence or lingering justice, Zona's case remains one of the most compelling instances of spectral testimony.

Are These Cases Coincidence or Proof of a Lingering Presence?

Skeptics may argue that these cases are simply products of intuition, coincidence, or subconscious knowledge. Yet, time and again, crucial evidence has come to light only after the dead "spoke." Whether through dreams, spectral appearances, or inexplicable clues, these stories challenge our understanding of the boundary between life and death.

What do you think? Are these cases proof that the dead seek justice—or eerie examples of intuition at work?
