PALM BEACH, Florida – Has the biblical Ark of the Covenant, the golden box containing the Ten Commandments, been found?
After countless years of speculation, not to mention the 1981 blockbuster Harrison Ford film "Raiders of the Lost Ark," resurfaced declassified documents claim the CIA located the holy relic in the Mideast with psychic and ESP help as part of an experimental, secret project called "Sun Streak" in the 1980s.
The Ark of the Covenant was created in Old Testament times when God instructed Moses to create the container, which holds not only the stone tablets on which the Ten Commandments were written with the finger of God, but also a jar of manna and Aaron's rod that miraculously sprouted blossoms and almonds.
The New York Post reports: "In a remote viewing session on Dec. 5, 1988, remote viewer #32 was tasked with identifying a target that, unbeknownst to them, ended up being the storied Ark of the Covenant, according to document, which was declassified on Aug. 8, 2000, and has been circulating on social media.
"Logistically, when a remote viewer is tasked with searching for a target, the desired object is written down on a piece of paper and put into an envelope. The remote viewer does not know what is written and is guided through the process by another person, retired U.S. Army Chief Warrant Joe McMoneagle explained."
The paper continued:
"Information collected under this protocol is the only information that can be identified as remote viewing," McMoneagle said.
McMoneagle, aka remote viewer #1, was the first to do the psychic phenomena experiments for the CIA – and he is not convinced by the exercise memorialized in the declassified document.
Remote viewer #32's vision described a secret Middle Eastern location of the object – which they don't know is the Ark – but they say is "protected by entities," the document reveals.
"Target is a container. This container has another container inside of it. The target is fashioned of wood, gold and silver … similar in shape to a coffin and is decorated with seraphim," they relayed, per the file.
"Visuals of surrounding buildings indicated the presence of Mosque domes," they said, adding that Arabic-speaking men, dressed in all white, populated the area.
"The target is hidden – underground, dark and wet were all aspects of the location of the target," they continued.
"The purpose of the target is to bring a people together. It has something to do with ceremony, memory, homage, the resurrection. There is an aspect of spirituality, information, lessons and the historical knowledge far beyond what we now know."
Remote viewer #32 then expounded on the more mysterious aspects of what they saw.
"The target is protected by entities and can only be opened by those who are authorized to do so – this container will not/cannot be opened until the time is deemed correct. Once it is time to open the container – the mechanics of the lock system will be found to be fairly simple," they said before adding a warning to potential plunderers.
"Individuals opening the container by prying or striking are destroyed by the container's protectors through the use of a power unknown to us."
