(Note: This is the eleventh of the unanswered questions about ITC, the afterlife, and our ancient heritage that invite answers, or best guesses, in this series of articles.)
Question 11: If all material things have spiritual templates (as I suspect they do), then apparently asteroids created by the explosion of Eden also have spiritual templates. If that’s the case, would those “spiritual asteroids” cause problems for the astral world Eden, the way physical asteroids pose a constant threat to physical Earth?
Best guess: While astral Eden exists at the level 3 of the Myers Model and is vibrationally distinct from the material universe, the astral templates of the asteroids probably exist at a denser level that overlaps closely with the material universe… a region of spiritual detritus that has spun out of the physical realm.
Compare this picture to one from an earlier post to get a better perspective of this (admittedly complex) scenario.
Interesting Puzzle Pieces of the Eden Bang Idea
Here are some related scientific postulates that help the asteroids fit into the bigger puzzle of Eden’s obliteration.
- **Asteroid bombardment. Moon rocks vary in age from about 3.8 billion years old, to several hundred million years old. I suspect nearly all of the moon rocks came from asteroids after planet Eden was pulverized. That probably happened some 800-million years ago. The oldest moon rocks probably came from Eden’s unchanging core, while the younger one’s came from Eden’s continental surface that was subject to natural plate tectonics and geologic disturbances. (The overall story of our ancient past is a mind-boggling drama that can stir mixed feelings. In any case, I updated my version of the story in 2026, based on recent scientific evidence. You can review the reasonably complete story of our ancient past in the 2026 article Earth’s Long Lost Legacy.)**
- Hypatia stone. “Unlike most meteorites, which have chemical compositions similar to Earth and the other rocky planets, (the Hypatia stone found in 1996) has elements in the wrong proportions, or in forms not usually seen in the inner solar system. It raises the question: Is our idea of how the solar system formed and how the elements were originally scattered throughout it the right one?” (read more…) For me, the best answer to that question is simply that Eden was a much “richer” planet than Earth in terms of its minerals (as well as much larger, roughly the size of Saturn) before it exploded.
