Exploring Inner Earth

The conveyance slows of its own accord, and stops in a large chamber. The only other exit that you see is a dark tunnel leading to yet another spiraling staircase.

After traveling a considerable distance downward, you emerge into a twilight realm, and in the faintness you see a doorway, and gathering your courage you enter and simultaneously see and feel a bright flash of brilliant bluish electrical light...

Unknown to you, this is an earthgate -- a subterranean equivolent of a stargate -- which transports you somewhere deep within the planet. You feel a sense of motion, yet you cannot discern your body. You seem to have been converted into a state of thought and energy, and all you can do is percieve your surroundings in a 360 degree spherical view simultaneously...

You sense strata after strata of rock and earth passing you as you descend. From time to time you find yourself flying through vast empty spaces where you seem to get a glimpse of strange animals, ancient cities and cool caverns and underground rivers and lakes...

You continue downward, somehow realizing that you are leaving the crustal regions of the planet and entering the mantle, as you continue downward...

Entering another vast cavity you find yourself, as if part of a beam of energy, flying through a huge cavern like something out of Dante's Inferno... you seem to hear shrieks and screams and demonic hisses as you continue onward, realizing that these caverns are far different than the ones you had travelled through earlier, for within these caverns you sense no water, no light, and no air but only thick black burning smoke... you yourself however in your dematerialized state do not feel the pain and fear that you sense fills this place beyond any hope of comprehension...

You pass through a zone of molton strata mixed with vast caverns, more of the same infernal zones similar those though which you have just passed... until you arrive at an immense realm, a vast and seemingly bottomless cavity where gravity is non-existant, and where huge mountainous boulders floating in the abyss smash into each other, moved by the horizontal rotation of the planet, as the collision of minerals and chemicals in this weightless vaccuum create a horrifying perpetual cacophany of cataclysmic terror, an endless earthquake of volcanic destruction...

You, thankfully, pass through this massive realm and downward as the you sense once again the forces of gravity returning, yet you find that in spite of the fact that you are still traveling downward, you are at the same time traveling upwards, and the gravitation that you sense is no longer caused by the magnetized mass of the earth, but more by the centrifugal force as the planets' rotation pushes the planetary mass outwards from within, that is until the null point is reached between the inward pull of gravitational mass and the outward push of centrifugal force, as you continue to 'descend upwards' through another layer of cavernous mantle and still more infernal cavernous voids devoid of light, air, moisture or any other physically life sustaining substance... all of these having been consumed by the magmatic fires resulting from chemicals, minerals, gases and liquids colliding with the ancient furnaces of molten rock... and once again you seem to pass through a thick layer of solid rock, a barrior of sorts like that separating the caverns of life from the caverns of death, similar to the barrier that you passed through before arriving at the center of the abyss...

And finally you enter more quiet caverns, vast chambers through which you briefly glimpse in your wild and rushing journey, strange and bizzare 'worlds' replete with mountains, deep chasms, underground rivers and lakes, and ancient and modern metropolisis inhabited by strange beings, both animal, humanoid and paraphysical amorphous quasi-material beings...

And upwards you 'descend' through even more caverns containing worlds that you could not imagine in your wildest childhood fantasies... many of these large caverns illuminated by a duffused light resulting from powerful electromagnetic currents interacting with the molecules which make up these subterranean atmospheres...

Upwards, upwards, upwards through more of the same until...

You find that you are materializing, densifying, phasing into your third dimensional form, as you are once again able to percieve your physical body... as you step through a portal surrounded by an ancient gateway of marble and granite, engraved with ancient heiroglyphs...

You find yourself on an island within a large lake...

Surrounding you is a vast world of uncomprehensible beauty, as you see beyond the lake immense towering trees and jungles like out of some prehistoric age, yet the jungles here are over twice as large as those ancient jungles could have been... And you peer upward to see suspended directly above your head, occasionally obscured by massive clouds, a luminous orb surrounded by mist... a yellow-orange light that you sense is not the product of thermonuclear reaction, but rather a focal point of cosmic electromagnetic energy, of solar energy caught by the earth and channeled through the planet until finally focalizing like a point of light within the crystal sphere held up to the sunlight, within the epicenter of the geoconcavitic sphere in which you find yourself...

And the strangest thing about this world is its lost horizon... there is in fact no horizon, for as you peer into the misty distance the jungles, lakes, land and small oceans which you see beyond you ascend upwards, clinging to the hollowish underside the the planet itself, until they fade off into the mist which in turn gives way to the luminous orb which lies directly above you...

You wonder if this could be real... perhaps the portal you entered earlier led rather to a virtual reality mechanism which has placed you right in the middle of a computerized fantasy... But what if -- you think to yourself -- the rapidly spinning planet in the process of forming from the gaseous void like a pot forming on the Creator's potters wheel, DID in fact create an 'empty' void within, as the rapidly spinning matter pushed outward from within, eternally contesing the inward push of the gravitational force of matter from without...

And suddenly you notice that this island has a narrow land-bridge to one side, which stretches towards and connects the mainland beyond... And setting your sights on this, you decide to explore this new world, whether fantasy or reality... and begin your quest to explore a mystery as ancient of the earth itself...
