For decades, the meaning behind the ancient handprints found deep within caves across the world has eluded experts. Painted or etched onto stone walls in remote and often sacred sites, these prints—some dating back more than 45,000 years—have stirred imaginations but defied concrete explanation.
Were they spiritual symbols? Tribal signatures? Or merely artistic expression?
A new theory, however, suggests something far more profound.
According to a German researcher who has dedicated years to the study of ancient symbolism, these handprints may represent a pivotal moment in humanity’s evolutionary journey. In a conversation with The Nus Times, he shared his belief that the hands offer a silent but intentional message: a record of mankind’s transformation from primal creature to conscious manipulator of the world.
His research points to the presence of animal hooves alongside some handprints—a subtle but deliberate juxtaposition, he argues, marking the human shift away from its animal origins. “These were not random,” he explained. “They contrast our past as creatures of instinct with our future as beings of mind and mastery.”
Further evidence, he suggests, lies in the incomplete nature of many of the prints. Some hand impressions show missing digits, a detail often overlooked or explained away as damage or artistic variation. Yet in his view, they serve as a visual metaphor for evolutionary change—specifically, the gradual development of the human hand.
It was the thumb, he notes, that marked the true evolutionary leap. “The thumb allowed us to leave the trees, to grasp, to craft, and ultimately, to shape our environment. It is the symbol of man becoming creator.”
While this interpretation has yet to be formally studied, it offers a provocative perspective on the meaning of these ancient and haunting relics of prehistory—and opens new pathways for understanding the mind of early humanity.
When asked about the reason behind the message, he was clear.
"It was to show mankind — those who would one day follow — that the point to life is to grow. To evolve from the animal to the spiritual being."

I travelled to interview 18 individuals across 14 different countries, spanning 4 continents. All in pursuit of one simple but profound question: What is Kundalini?
What I discovered changed my life.
Each of the 18 had undoubtedly awakened something powerful within themselves. A force. A silent fire that consumed who they once were and gave rise to something new—something clearer, wiser, and more attuned to the hidden layers of reality. This transformation brought with it not just insight, but an undeniable presence—a depth of peace and knowledge I had never before encountered.
Some spoke of out-of-body experiences. Others described numerical languages or the presence of a conscious being residing within them, guiding them. Despite the varied accounts, a thread connected them all: a rebirth. Each had endured an inner death followed by a radiant emergence, like steel tempered by fire.
What struck me most was the way they carried themselves. There was a stillness in their words, a clarity in their eyes. Truth didn’t feel like something they were trying to express—it felt like it was simply flowing through them. I often felt it physically: waves of calm rising from my gut, like a hidden part of me was rejoicing at being fed something real.
After each meeting, I walked away changed. I began to clean my diet, sharpen my thoughts, and redirect my focus inward. The outer world no longer felt like the main stage of life—it was the inner world that now held the key.
These encounters became the foundation for my book, What is Kundalini?, not as a textbook or spiritual manual, but as a living record—of voices, visions, and truths whispered through transformation.
And if there’s one thing I learned above all, it’s this:
Kundalini is not just a word. It is a call.
A call to awaken.
A call to remember.
And for those brave enough to answer, it is the beginning of a life forever changed.

In an extraordinary revelation from Germany, a man claims to have received the profound meaning behind ancient Neanderthal cave art directly from the ether. The artwork, known as Panel 78, located in the La Pasiega cave in Spain, dates back more than 64,000 years, making it one of the oldest known artistic expressions attributed to Neanderthals.
The remarkable interpretation sheds new light on humanity’s evolutionary journey toward consciousness. According to the received insights, the art illustrates a profound metaphorical message encoded through symbolic imagery. At the top of the depicted ladder, a figure comprised of multiple dots symbolizes the collective unification of many into one—representing humanity’s evolutionary ascension from basic animal instincts to an awareness of interconnected existence.
The animals depicted on the ladder’s rungs—clearly visible in the ancient pigment—symbolize stages of existence closely tied to animalistic instincts and behaviors. Ascending the ladder indicates mankind’s journey away from these primal instincts toward a higher, unified consciousness.
Adjacent to the ladder, another figure appears connected to a symbolic plough. This represents the “worker within,” the unseen force tirelessly pushing humanity toward greater self-awareness and spiritual insight. The plough metaphor emphasizes the importance of inner cultivation, suggesting the necessity of conscious effort and purposeful action in achieving spiritual growth and advancement.
Ultimately, the decoded message encapsulated in the La Pasiega cave art conveys a profound truth: humanity’s purpose lies in transcending its animalistic origins. By “sowing” in this life through disciplined inner work and conscious cultivation, individuals may ascend to become aware of their place within the universal “All.”
This breakthrough interpretation challenges previous assumptions about Neanderthal cognitive capabilities, offering compelling evidence of sophisticated symbolic thought and spiritual understanding far deeper than previously acknowledged.

For centuries, broken noses on ancient statues have puzzled historians, archaeologists, and curious minds alike. From the shattered visages of Egyptian pharaohs to the weathered busts of Greco-Roman gods, missing noses seem almost universal across ancient sculpture. Theories have ranged from simple wear and vandalism to symbolic desecration.
Now, however, a man from Sweden believes he has uncovered a deeper, more profound explanation — one that speaks not only to the intentions of our ancestors but also to the very nature of human desire.
According to the researcher, who claims the meaning came to him through deep reflection and what he describes as insight “from the ether,” these broken noses were never random. They were deliberate acts, performed to symbolically sever the connection between humanity and its primal desires.
“Desire enters through the nose,” he explained. “It is the olfactory system — the sense of smell — that plays a powerful, though often subconscious, role in attraction and pleasure.”
Modern science lends weight to this notion. The olfactory bulb, responsible for processing smell, is directly linked to the limbic system — the brain’s emotional and reward center. Scents can trigger memories, elevate mood, and, crucially, influence sexual attraction. Pheromones, chemical signals released by the body, are often detected subliminally, shaping social and reproductive behaviors.
According to the Swedish man, ancient sages understood this connection. By breaking the noses of statues, they were not merely disfiguring works of art, but symbolically demonstrating the need to “cut off” desire in the pursuit of higher consciousness.
He points to an often-overlooked biological phenomenon: men’s ability to unconsciously detect subtle scent changes in women during their menstrual cycle. Research has shown that women emit different olfactory signals at various stages of their cycle — signals that can subconsciously influence male behavior and attraction.
“This primal sensing is what aligns social and biological rhythms,” he says. “It is how women living together often find their menstrual cycles syncing — their bodies and environments communicating on levels below ordinary awareness.”
For the Swedish researcher, this connection between scent, desire, and biology is exactly what ancient cultures were hinting at. The statues, in his view, are silent teachers. Their defaced noses a message passed down across millennia: to transcend the animal instincts and embrace the path of spiritual elevation.
“To rise as beings of awareness,” he concludes, “we must first master our lower nature. The statues remind us — desire clouds wisdom. Overcoming it brings clarity.”
While his theory may stir debate, it adds a compelling voice to the mystery of history’s broken statues — suggesting they may still have much to teach us in the modern age.

A remarkable theory has emerged from Ireland that may shed new light on some of the world’s oldest symbolic artwork.
At Diepkloof Rock Shelter in South Africa, archaeologists have discovered ostrich eggshell fragments dating back between 65,000 and 55,000 years. These fragments, adorned with carefully etched lines and dots, have long been recognized as some of the earliest examples of abstract human expression. Yet their true meaning has remained elusive — until now.
According to an Irish researcher, the seemingly simple motifs carry a profound symbolic message. He believes the ancient designs depict not merely abstract patterns but are coded teachings about the human condition itself.
The researcher claims the message is both metaphorical and deeply biological. The parallel lines carved into the eggshells, he suggests, represent the lines found naturally on human skin — the subtle creases and textures that form as our bodies develop. Meanwhile, the dots are likened to the pores of the skin, often seen side by side with these fine lines, as observed on the human body.
But it is the egg itself, he says, that holds the key to understanding the ancients’ message.
Drawing a comparison between the chick and the human soul, he believes the artists were conveying a lesson: just as a bird must break free from the eggshell to begin life, so too must humans eventually transcend the physical body — their “skin” — to truly awaken.
“The egg was their metaphor for life,” the researcher explained. “The chick doesn’t live until it breaks through the shell. In the same way, our ancestors were trying to say that we too are confined. The lines and dots on the egg remind us that the skin we wear is temporary, and at some point, to fully live, we must break free from it.”
While mainstream archaeology typically interprets such markings as simple expressions of group identity or communication, this new theory offers a far more philosophical view — suggesting that early humans were already contemplating existence beyond the material world.
Furthermore, the Irish researcher points out the ingeniousness of the chosen medium itself. Ostrich eggs, long used to carry water and as survival tools, are also a natural symbol of birth and life. To use them as the canvas for this message was, he suggests, no accident.
“This was not primitive doodling,” he adds. “This was wisdom. They chose the egg deliberately. It was the perfect object to symbolize the journey from entrapment to freedom.”
While his views are sure to stir debate among scholars, the theory has already begun to circulate among those interested in ancient symbolism and spiritual teachings. If true, the humble ostrich eggshell fragments at Diepkloof may offer far more than a glimpse into early human culture — they may be whispering across time about the very nature of existence itself.

A man from Sweden has shared a remarkable insight into one of humanity’s oldest and most mysterious creations — the Lion-Man of Hohlenstein-Stadel, an ancient ivory figurine carved between 35,000 and 40,000 years ago. Unearthed from a German cave, this small yet profound sculpture stands as one of the earliest known examples of anthropomorphic art — where animal and human merge into one. Known also as Lowenmensch, the figure has fascinated researchers for decades, yet its meaning has remained elusive.
Now, new light has been cast on its possible purpose.
The Swedish man, who claims his understanding came through deep reflection and intuition, believes the figurine was crafted as a metaphor for evolution — and more importantly, for transcendence. The lion-headed human, he says, represents the rise of man from animal origins toward higher consciousness. The creature’s upright posture is not incidental. According to him, it speaks of humanity’s potential: to stand tall, to become self-aware, and ultimately to reach beyond instinct.
“It is the animal standing,” he explained. “But standing to become more. Man must rise above the primal and embrace the spiritual.”
The symbolism is subtle but profound. In this view, the Lion-Man does not merely depict a shamanic transformation or a mythic beast. It tells a story still unfolding today — the eternal human journey to overcome lower impulses, cultivate wisdom, and remember our connection to something greater than ourselves.
The Swedish thinker described this ascent as the true meaning behind the figure: not domination over nature, but mastery of one’s own nature. By taming the animal within, humanity can take its rightful place as a being capable of knowing the sacred — of participating in the mystery rather than merely surviving within it.
In his words, the Lion-Man silently whispers across ages: rise, awaken, and become.
As archaeological wonders continue to reveal fragments of the ancient mind, interpretations like this offer a bridge between our distant past and our unfolding present — suggesting that long before the written word, art carried messages that still call out to us in timeless, quiet ways.

In Germany’s Swabian Alb, deep within the shadowed recesses of Hohle Fels Cave, archaeologists uncovered one of the world’s most ancient and haunting relics of human creativity: a flute carved from the wing bone of a vulture. Dated to nearly 35,000 years ago, this fragile instrument — known as the Hohle Fels flute — is considered one of the oldest known musical instruments in existence.
But beyond its role in music, could this flute carry a hidden spiritual message from distant ancestors?
According to a man from Sweden, who has spent years studying ancient symbols and objects, the answer is yes. He believes the flute’s material and form reveal more than just humanity’s early artistic inclinations — they reveal a metaphor about spiritual evolution and transcendence.
“The flute is not just about music,” he says. “It is about vibration. It represents frequency — and frequency is the language of the higher realms.”
What is most telling, he adds, is that the flute was made from the radius bone of a bird, specifically a vulture. Birds, long seen in ancient traditions as messengers and intermediaries between earth and sky, are symbols of freedom and spiritual ascent. To use the wing of such a creature, he suggests, was a deliberate act — an ancestral teaching encoded into art.
According to his interpretation, the flute asks us to raise our vibration — much as birds rise into the heavens with their wings. In this way, sound and spiritual transformation are linked. The human who raises their vibration through inner work and resonance, he says, symbolically “gains wings” and escapes the heavy pull of material existence.
In his words: “To rise spiritually is to become like the bird. Not to escape life, but to live from a higher awareness — above the primal and in harmony with the sacred.”
In this view, the Hohle Fels flute does not merely tell of prehistoric music. It tells of a path. A journey from grounded existence to spiritual flight — played through the breath and carried on the invisible waves of vibration.
As science continues to reveal the dates and details of the flute’s creation, interpretations like these remind us that ancient artifacts may not only preserve history — they may also preserve teachings. Teachings that call to us, softly, like music echoing across the ages.

The origin of certain texts has long sparked debate, and Tesla: Or An Adaptation of an Angel is no exception. Though widely circulated and often attributed to inventor Nikola Tesla, the work is in fact penned by Serbian writer Stevan Pesic. Yet for many, the words themselves — poetic, insightful, and timeless — have transcended questions of authorship.
But does it really matter who penned the words?
History tells us that great ideas and transcendent wisdom often float free from individual identity. Consider Plato, the revered Greek philosopher whose dialogues, while foundational to Western thought, may not all have been his alone. Many of his teachings came through his recounting of Socrates — himself a conduit for even older traditions. And beyond Plato, countless sacred and philosophical texts — from the Vedas to the Tao Te Ching — emerged from anonymous sages who gave little regard to personal credit.
What these examples show is that wisdom, once released into the world, no longer belongs to a single mind or name. It becomes universal. It lives in the readers, in the seekers, in the moments of quiet reflection when a phrase touches the depths of human experience.
Tesla or An Adaptation of an Angel is no different. Whether the words came through Pešić, through Tesla in spirit, or through the collective field of consciousness itself, they speak to something beyond ownership. The text explores profound truths — about energy, about higher dimensions of thought, and about the angelic nature of inspired genius. These ideas do not gain or lose value depending on the signature on the page.
Instead, they invite us into a timeless conversation — one that transcends authorship and instead asks us to consider the message over the messenger. Perhaps, in a world increasingly obsessed with attribution and credit, this is where true wisdom lies: in letting go of who said it, and focusing on what was said.
In the end, the question of authorship becomes a mirror for the reader. If the words ring true — if they awaken something within — then the source may ultimately be less important than the transformation they inspire.
Because wisdom, by its very nature, belongs to no one. And yet, to all.

Throughout history, few birds have soared higher in the symbolic mind of mankind than the crane. From ancient Asia to early Europe, from indigenous America to the myths of Greece, the crane has long been revered as more than just a creature of feathers and flight. It became, instead, a messenger of higher truths — a figure pointing toward the spiritual sky.
In Japan, cranes are known as tsuru and represent longevity and good fortune. Legend says they live for a thousand years, and so they became central figures in weddings and prayers for peace. The art of folding a thousand origami cranes remains an enduring symbol of hope and healing.
In China, cranes were seen as symbols of immortality. Daoist sages were often depicted riding on cranes into the heavens, their spirits liberated from the burdens of the world. For the Chinese, the crane was not just a bird, but a chariot of ascension.
The ancient Greeks, too, saw meaning in the bird’s graceful form. To them, cranes embodied vigilance and wisdom, while Native American tribes viewed them as guides and protectors, bridging earthly life with the spiritual realm.
Why such universal reverence? The answer, it seems, can be witnessed in nature itself.
The photograph above, taken in the snowy landscapes of Japan, offers us a glimpse into the very reason ancient peoples saw the crane as an emblem of transcendence. In it, three red-crowned cranes engage in their ritual dance — necks stretched skyward, beaks pointed toward the heavens, bodies aligned in elegant symmetry.
To watch cranes is to see beings in communion with the sky. Their instinctive choreography — heads always lifting upwards, their songs rising in crescendo — whispers to us of something more than survival. It reflects a simple but profound truth: the act of rising, of looking beyond, is written not just in scripture, but in nature.
According to symbolic interpretations, the crane’s upward gestures teach man what must be done. The ancients understood this intuitively. To evolve, man must imitate the crane — lifting his consciousness beyond earthly desires, raising his gaze from the dust to the stars. In the crane’s posture, they saw a mirror of their own spiritual journey.
The crane does not only fly. It points.
And through centuries of myth, art, and ritual, humanity has followed that gesture — learning to lift its spirit upwards, and, in doing so, become more.
What nature whispers, the wise remember.
