Underground worlds: Buddhist Russia

RT covers the US well
(RT) Many interesting things are hidden under the ground. In Odessa, Ukraine (formerly Czarist Russia and the USSR, part of Russia's Far East in Northern Asia), man made caves, caverns, and catacombs are scattered across the region -- stretching 2,500 km long, making them the longest in the world, but not necessarily the biggest, however.

These so-called catacombs were home to partisan bases during World War II. In Vladivostok -- the main Russian military naval base in the Far East -- engineers built a fortress at the beginning of the 20th century. Moreover, the largest underground Russian church is hidden in Penza, according to RT.

What greed overcomes the U.S. MIC?
Are there similar deep underground military bases in the United States? Better believe it. They exist under Los Angeles but are most famously concentrated in Nevada and New Mexico, particularly the Archuleta Mesa (Dulce, NM) and in and around the Grand Canyon, Arizona.

These were not built exclusively by the U.S. military, CIA, and MIC (military-industrial complex). Native Americans say they were the home of humanoids referred to as the "Ant People," who live there and saved the lives of humans on the surface from time to time by welcoming them into their subterranean cities, which are not dark or lifeless but fully fleshed out and high tech.
 
Archuleta Mesa and its off-planet inhabitants

Archuleta Mesa is the central geographic feature of Dulce, New Mexico, the heart of the Jicarilla Apache Nation.... In 2009, 120 people from around the world and the area attended the Dulce Underground UFO Base Conference. One local in attendance was Horacio Garcia. I know Garcia well. I know his kids and family and have spent time with them.

Big, kind, with baggy pants, bandana often tied low on his forehead and tattoos covering his arms, he is known for his knowledge on aliens. In Dec. 2011, I asked him about the Greys and the Dulce Alien Base.

[He answered,] “I don’t have to tell you anything. In a few weeks, everybody will know. The aliens will reveal themselves,” Garcia said. A few weeks passed, and I felt, thought, saw, and believed the same. If I was looking at aliens or alien artifacts, I didn’t see them. Yet, many claim to have seen strange and bizarre sights in Dulce and Lumberton, New Mexico -- coyotes that turn into humans, big orbs of light floating in the valleys, dogs that run faster than a speeding car, Bigfoot (Sasquatches), cow fetuses with the face of a tiger (government research chimeras) -- and (extraterrestrial) aliens, specifically, the Greys.

It is interesting to note that according to Hindu and later Buddhist cosmologies, "heavens," usually referring to celestial worlds, are described as existing in space as well as underground inside this planet, which Wisdom Quarterly has covered.

Future "collateral damage," Afghanistan
While the West imposes sanctions on Russia, Russia is making a deal with China as each has something to offer the other, David Kuo, CEO of the Motley Fool Singapore financial Website, told RT. [One of the real reasons the U.S. fulfilled its longstanding plans to invade innocent Afghanistan -- after fomenting controversy by creating "the Taliban" with the help of Pakistani intelligence, demolishing the Buddhas of Bamiyan, and using 9/11 as the ultimate pretext for invasion, revenge, and an endless war on terror/fear in the Middle East and Wahabhi-Islam -- was for oil. There was a plan to build a massive pipeline to facilitate the plans of American and Western multinational corporations. "No blood for oil" protesters aware of this used to say.] More
