I hate to skeptic up this thread, I really do. But the quote above sounds to me like it was written from the point-of-view of someone who was alive -after- Israel became a nation, in 1948.

That being said, this thread was still an awesome read, and there is real wisdom in what was written, no matter when it was written. S+F

good point, but seeing as he died after the state of israel was re-formed, he could be refering to its old name of the kingdom of Israel..

According to Biblical tradition, the united Kingdom of Israel was a kingdom that existed in the Land of Israel, a period referred to by scholars as the United Monarchy. Biblical historians date the kingdom from c. 1020 BCE to c. 930 BCE, though there are differences of opinion as to exact dates.

which makes sense, as israel is not a kingdom anymore, its a now the state of israel..
also seeing as he was quite religious, im sure he would have been aware of the israel region of the middle east, for obvious regions..

Interesting thread. I've never heard of this man and I'm Serbian. Did you translate these by yourself? Do you have the original text? I might be able to shed some light on some of the interesting parts of the "prophecies".

Solar power is around us and we are digging the world for crude oil, thats not good

Wow that had an eery vibe to that story. Sounds so familiar.

The future isn't looking good for us according to the prophecies.

Meditation classes anyone?

Islam ?

"Wise men will appear in the Orient, and their wisdom will cross all seas and frontiers, but people will not trust this wisdom for long time, and this real truth they will proclaim for a lie."

What do you all think ?

I think it clearly relates to oriental ideas about energy and chi. I think a lot of these ideas have a lot of validity and are related to the concept of the soul in western culture, however, they were largely totally swept under the rug. I think that his passage about people beginning to meditate more is also related to the idea of this wisdom being rediscovered.

To me, this is the most interesting part of what I've read from this man so far...

Instead of working in the fields, people will dig everywhere, in right and wrong places, but the real power will be all around them, not being able to tell them, 'Come on, take me, don't you see that I am here, all around you.' Only after many a summer, people will remember this real power, and then they will realize how stupid it was to dig all those holes. This power will also be present in people but it will take a long time before they discover it and use it. Thus man will live for a long, long time, not being able to know himself. There will be many learned men who will think through their books that they know and can do everything. They will be the great obstacle for this realization [self-knowledge], but once men get this knowledge, then people will see what kind of delusion it was when they listened to their learned men. When that happens, people will be so sorry that they didn't discover it before, because this knowledge is so simple.

It really leaves you thinking...

I think that this passage relates to the huge abundance of renewable natural energy (solar, wind, etc...) that is available all around us. He is referring to the fact that although we are more than capable of harnessing these sources to power our cities, the imposing nature of the commercial energy complex ingrained in nonrenewable resources keeps us blind the the possibility.

As for his passage about the power being present in people...? The only think that I can think of is that he is talking about the power that would come from a mass realization of the true human condition.

illusion = conspiracy #. very nice thread!

it could be referring to the ideas of traditional chinese medicine..


even more significant now, as it is pretty much banned in europe now. so instead of this ancient, natural way of medicine and health, we are told its not proven to work, while they push profit making, synthetic chemicals on us.

I don't think he is talking about solar power as he also says:

This power will also be present in people but it will take a long time before they discover it and use it.

I think it's more like electromagnetic power.
We are all to a lesser degree electrical.
Maybe something in the way of what Tesla was working on is what I'm thinking.

the words are translated from serbo-croatian.
if you are serbian and know a little about the countries history, i suggest you read his other predictions, most of his prophesies are actually about serbia and the surrounding region..
i dont know enough about serbian history to comment on that, but maybe you can shed some light on it for us..

People will drill wells deep in the ground and dig out gold, which will give them light, speed and power, and the earth will shed tears of sorrow, because there will be much more gold and light on its surface than in its interior. The earth will suffer because of these open wounds. Instead of working in the fields, people will dig everywhere, in right and wrong places, but the real power will be all around them, not being able to tell them, 'Come on, take me, don't you see that I am here, all around you.' Only after many a summer, people will remember this real power, and then they will realize how stupid it was to dig all those holes.

When that happens, people will be so sorry that they didn't discover it before, because this knowledge is so simple.

Water. All around us, it allows us to live, it is a coolant for the body. We are 80% + water. The key words in the above were the words "summer" (as you need more water during summer). Learned men would be in reference to perhaps the big oil companies - seems like a lot of societies free energy problems equates to the success or failure of those men.

And the 'because this knowledge is so simple' is again - water. H20, Hydrogen and Oxygen. Fuel for the fire, and accelarent for the fire.... Its so simple

Those who will read and write different books with numbers will think that they know the most. These learned men will let their lives be led by their calculations, and they will do and live exactly how these numbers tell them. Among these learned men there will be good and evil men. The evil ones will do evil deeds. They will poison air and water and spread pestilence over the seas, rivers and earth, and people will start to die suddenly of various ailments. Those good and wise will see that all this effort and hard work is not worth a penny and that it leads to the destruction of the world, andinstead of looking for wisdom in numbers, they will start to seek it in meditation.

Seems like it could be in reference to the ego and pride. The term 'numbers' I thought would be an example of blogs, where people write about things they know about, and get many 'likes'. Its the popularity of someone, that if you're more popular, people will follow - numerous people, thinking there is wisdom for the mere fact others follow them, could be in relation to the opinion to an actor where their status means more than the realistic approach of their opinion. The mention of meditation verifies this for me, because the term meditation is not something I would follow someone else for, its a way for you to discover said things, and be active within yourself where you can make a difference.

Or it could mean money.... money with a larger number printed on it
