That was an awesome story HMK
I forgot what thread it was in.
Cheers.
Chig - two miners were trapped underground for 2 weeks in a mine in my mum's hometown last year. the mine was reopened about 15 years ago after closing for being too dangerous about 100 years ago.
We used to play in it when it was an abandoned mine, and I was young.
Very spooky down there.
That entire time they were underground I felt this weird connection to that spot. So did mum and various other family.
I'd love to know if anything odd happened.
Funny thing was they were missing for a while before they were found and the rescue effort started. you could feel the vibe from the town even here. And the truth is that I knew they were OK even when they were written off as dead, so did mum.
It was a very strange feeling, especially as I went to sleep. Could feel the ground under the town.
A few odd things have happened to me in that place tho. Strong family connection, our house is still on a hill made of quartz a km above the mine workings. Strange place.
JD Supernatural is awesome.
Thats part of the weird stuff that happens underground.
I know it sounds far out but I could feel the town and the guys under ground from here with 1000km at least of land and 200km of Bass Strait between us.
and using the fantastic "ray" machines that the great ancient races left behind to project tormenting thoughts and voices into our minds.
It wasn't projecting tormenting thoughts...
But it kind of felt like somehow comforting thoughts were being projected from the town itself and the mine.
I was also projecting as much as I could in the way of energy prayer and hope, and used to imagine a protective field around the guys every time I went to bed. Funny but quite a few people from up here said the same thing. Its mums home town and I think I used to play cricket with one of them when we were young. So its part of my home too. But the people up here had no connection cept empathy
The truth of this is that when I got this feeling strongly, I felt like one of so many people who were contributing, this wasn't like taking out cruisers in the Persian gulf. That everyone moved by their plight was contributing something magical whether they thought about it or not.
So it was a give and take thing.

Funny how 2 people can inspire so much care yet 1000s being slaughterd is like the structure of the world we live in and barely rates a mention with some people.
