Various experts shared their experiences with the intriguing world of Crystal Skulls. First up, historian Raymond Tarpey, who has specialized in the study of ancient Chinese and Mayan cultures, related the Mayan creation story, which he said described the "Adam & Eve of Atlantis." In the story, Eve is impregnated by a skull, and gives birth to twins. According to Edgar Cayce, a crystal known as Tuaoi, was used to provide energy for communications in Atlantis, he continued.

Appearing in a half-hour segment, Jaap van Etten, Ph.D., talked about how crystal skulls convey and store various types of information. Crystal skulls have been used by people in many different ways, he noted. There is a legend of bringing the original 13 crystal skulls together, which he believes refers to mastering "sufficient information and energy to be able to make a shift in consciousness, and every crystal skull whether contemporary or ancient has the potential to tap into that information system." Carolyn Ford, the guardian of the crystal skull Einstein , described her communications. Einstein gave her formulas for her plant medicines, as well as made predictions about the future. Einstein sees people becoming more in harmony with themselves and the planet in the year 2013.

In regards to how some of the ancient crystal skulls were made, he suggested some were carved by hand by a master shaman using a kick wheel. Citing the research of Nick Nocerino, and Marcel Vogel, Mehler described the skulls as being like ancient computers that have the ability to both store and transfer energy, as well as raise consciousness. There are a variety of methods to communicate with a skull, including breath, sound, and light, as well as meditation, where you propose questions or see images, he detailed. Mehler also spoke about his interest in Egypt, and said that since Zahi Hawass has left his position, there has been more access to ancient sites.

Biography:

Stephen Mehler's fascination with ancient Egypt, which began at the age of eight, has guided his education and spiritual work all his life. Mehler holds three degrees in the sciences and is a trained field archaeologist and prehistorian.

For almost 16 years, 1992-2008 , Mehler was a student, disciple, and close friend of Egyptian-born Egyptologist and indigenous wisdom keeper, Abd'El Hakim Awyan (1926-2008), popularly known as Hakim. Stephen has written two books, The Land of Osiris and From Light Into Darkness: The Evolution Of Religion In Ancient Egypt , based on his work and collaboration with Hakim and Stephen's over 40 years of research in the area. Stephen is currently Director of Research of both the Great Pyramid of Giza Research Association and his own Land Of Osiris Research Project .

Mehler has experienced and tested four skulls that he has labelled ancient artifacts, has seen as many as nine that could fit that category, and was able to work with Dr. Marcel Vogel and F.R. 'Nick' Nocerino. Stephen has written a book on the subject with David Hatcher Childress, The Crystal Skulls: Astonishing Portals To Man's Past

Biography:

Jaap van Etten holds a Ph.D. in Biology with a speciality in Ecology. About 20 years ago his life changed dramatically, shifting the focus in his life more towards spirituality. He believes that science and spirituality need to be integrated again. This led him to the study of metaphysical ecology: the study of the interaction between the human (subtle) energy system and the (subtle) energy systems in its environment.

He realized that crystal skulls form a link between the Earth and human consciousness. Since then he included crystal skulls in his studies, summarizing his ideas in a book "Crystal Skulls; Interacting with a Phenomenon," published in 2007. Currently his studies focus on the role of crystal skulls in the creation of energy fields, their role in the activation of Earth energies and their role in human spiritual evolution.
