CIA Finds Ark Of The Covenant

The Ark of the Covenant is one of the most sought-after artifacts in the history of the world. There are all kinds of theories and rumors about where the Ark of the Covenant is, who’s guarding it, and what’s really inside it. Shockingly, it looks like even the CIA was trying to understand more about it.

In the late ‘80s, they recruited remote viewers for Project Stargate (also known as Project Sun Streak) to remote view its location and contents. Not only did the CIA’s remote viewers find the Ark of the Covenant, but they also found it being guarded by “entities” of supernatural origin.

Even though they didn’t physically find the ark, it does prove that it exists, and that it appears to hold a very guarded secret. What’s inside? Who is guarding it? Why were they looking for it in the first place, and what is the past history of the ark? Find out on this Edge of Wonder live show with Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts.

CIA’s Twisted Mind Control

Mind control and psychological experiments have been conducted by the CIA, research institutes, universities, and private and governmental agencies for decades. What shocking information did they uncover about the power of the mind?

Psychological experiments have been critical in shaping the fields of psychology and human behavior. Some have had a massive impact in society, and others have been carried out quietly on the masses.

The Stanley Milgram Experiment showed how an obedience to authority can override people’s good judgment even when others are being hurt as a direct result of their conformity. The Asch Conformity Study showed how people can be influenced by others to agree to an incorrect answer even when they know they’re correct. “Group think” may be literal!

Of course, the CIA also performed their own studies with their infamous, controversial mind control experiments like MK Ultra. But most people don’t know that they secretly conducted other experiments that were never exposed as well.

What’s the point of these mind and behavior experiments, and is there anything we can learn from them in today’s world? Tune into this Edge of Wonder Live show as Ben Chasteen dives deeper into what these studies mean, shows some past experiments, and discusses how they shaped our understanding of the human psyche.

Do Temples Align With Stars?

Did the ancient Maya people use the stars and the constellations as a map to build their temples? New evidence hints that they did, which brings up a new question about archaeology: What if we used star maps to look for ancient sites? Would they prove that certain sites were man made?

In Graham Hancock’s Ancient Apocalypse series, he began to explore this theory, joining other researchers who have pointed out that the Pyramids of Giza are the main location that aligns exactly with the stars. Today, mainstream scholars and archaeologists disprove this theory, however, because the stars do not align now—or even 3,000 years ago—with what they say is the age of the pyramid complex.

However, the pyramids did align with the stars very exactly over 12,000 years ago, going against the mainstream understanding of when the pyramids were built.

But what if we took this approach a step further, venturing off of our own planet and onto another, specifically Mars? Using star charts, is it possible that the ancient region of Cydonia on Mars holds the key to a cosmic mystery, revealing that it was a site built by an intelligent, advanced race? Will we find a rational layout that mimics the stars? Or is it all random structures formed over eons of wind and dirt?

Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts on this Edge of Wonder Live show as they unravel the mysteries of these ancient locations.

China: The TikTok-Boeing Link

The Boeing company is having a hard time taking off again as it has been rocked with malfunctions and accusations. Boeing whistleblower John Barnett was found dead in his truck after he accused the company of lowering their production standards, including using scrap parts to build their planes. Just days before his death, Barnett gave evidence in a lawsuit against Boeing. His death has been ruled a suicide, even though there is a recording of Barnett saying he is not suicidal.

Meanwhile, just this week alone, three Boeing planes had to make emergency landings due to “malfunctions.” There are rumors China is trying to take over the aviation industry. They recently launched their own version of the Boeing 747 called the COMAC C919. What is really happening within the Boeing company? Are all these cases simply negligence, or is something dark and nefarious going on?

Speaking of China, the TikTok ban that has just passed the House is being hotly debated by all sides. What is actually written in the Bill? Is this really about a Chinese company taking over, or is this a Trojan horse for big government to take more control of private social media companies?

Did Archimedes Invent DEWs?

In an unprecedented outage, Meta’s entire network, including Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, was completely shut down for most users for nearly 2 hours on Super Tuesday. Meta never gave much of an explanation, aside from “Technical Issues.” Theories range from a cyberattack to hacking, internal issues, sabotage, or even Mark Zuckerberg pulling the plug because it was on election day.

However, it was confirmed that 3 Red Sea data cables were cut. Was this the cause of it? Everyone, including Elon Musk, responded by posting hilarious memes on X (formerly Twitter).

In other news, the US military has deployed its cutting-edge laser weapon: the Directed Energy Maneuver-Short Range Air Defense, or DE M-SHORAD, to the Middle East for real-world testing. This is a real-life Directed Energy Weapon, or DEW, built by Raytheon as part of the company’s portfolio of high-energy laser systems. Using “photons, or particles of light,” it is designed to defeat a range of airborne threats, including drones, rockets, artillery, and mortars.

However, this brings up a lot of speculation and questions in how these Directed Energy Weapons are being used since we are told they do not exist by the mainstream media. Also, we found evidence that Archimedes, an Ancient Greek mathematician and inventor, designed similar weapons used in battles going as far back as 2,200 years ago. Did he really build them? Are they being used today? There is also evidence that in 1984, the Soviet Union was using secret laser tracking systems on the Challenger space flight, frightening the crew and shutting down some systems in the craft. Did this have anything to do with the Challenger Disaster 2 years later in 1986?

Did Atlantis Exist In Sahara?

New evidence of Atlantis has been found in the Richat Structure, also known as the Eye of the Sahara in Mauritania. Is this finally proof that the once lost city of Atlantis was thriving there?

The Richat Structure is an immense, circular, geological formation in the heart of the desert. Amazingly, its concentric circles look exactly the way Plato described Atlantis, which was made up of “alternate zones of sea and land, larger and smaller, encircling one another. There were two of land and three of water.”

In another synchronous, historical alignment, in the ancient kingdom of Mauretania, there lived a legendary king named Atlas. But how does he connect with the story? The mysterious structure has captured the attention of all kinds of researchers, from professionals to amateurs, and it’s ignited speculation about its possible connection to ancient civilizations.

After all, the Sahara was once home to lush forests and active rivers. Is there finally evidence of roads and dwellings going through the Richat Structure? Who would have lived there in history? Debate whether the Richat Structure was manmade or natural tonight with Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts on Edge of Wonder.

CIA’s Holographic Universe

The CIA did secret research on astral projection and questioned if we’re living in a holographic universe. If that weren’t enough, the CIA even recruited people to train them on achieving different states of consciousness. Why? They wanted to attempt to time travel back into the past to see events, or look into the future to see what would happen. And this isn’t a rumor or conspiracy theory: There were pages declassified from the CIA’s archives, and now, one mysterious document is available. One of the pages was originally omitted, but Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts hunted it down. Some of the conclusions that the CIA came to are literally out of this world.

The governmental agency also studied how transcendental meditation affects the body, and they monitored the flow of energy in people’s bodies. Did they gain any understanding of how we’re all connected to the universe? The report was written by US Army Lieutenant Colonel Wayne M. McDonnell, with technical assistance from mastermind Israeli-American biomedical engineer Itzhak Bentov. A man by the name of Robert Monroe led the research, and interestingly, he later founded an organization called The Monroe Institute to study consciousness.

The CIA’s document explained how they listened to certain rhythms and beats, which we now call binaural beats. They found that brain waves change as a person listens, inducing a meditative state and making it easier for REM sleep. What are the implications of that research? Join Ben Chasteen and Rob  Counts on this Edge of Wonder Live as they discuss this mind-blowing document that was only intended for the CIA’s top brass on transcending space-time, interdimensional travel, hypnosis, biofeedback, quantum physics, and universal holograms. Don’t miss the Live Q&A followed by a meditation/prayer that you can only find on Rise.TV!

Why New Year’s Date Changed?

Did you know that the “New Year” wasn’t always celebrated on January 1? Why did that change? Every culture around the world celebrates a different day for the New Year, but when was this changed in modern history? More importantly, why did Pope Gregory XIII make the change to switch to the Gregorian calendar?

The secret reason why will not only shock you, but also make you wonder why we don’t go back to the original way. Did our year once upon a time actually have 13 months? Astrological calendars still seem to follow the original calendar, with the year ending in March under Pisces and the year beginning in April with Aries.

Speaking of April, that brings up April Fools Day, April 1. Since some people still celebrated April 1 as the New Year, they were considered “fools.” Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts as they reveal the secrets of the new year calendar, plus more, in this edition of The Edge of Wonder.
