The other day, I was comparing two documentaries; one was called Ancient Aliens while the other was Ancient Aliens Debunked. A bit contradictory I know, but even after watching Ancient Aliens, I wasn’t convinced that our human race came from aliens. The only aliens that I believe in are illegal aliens…

…and the also usage of that word in the biblical context, which means that the people were… strange…

Anyway, Ancient Aliens Theorists claimed that there were sightings of UFOs visiting India around 5,000 B.C. These UFOs are called Vimanas. On an episode of Ancient Aliens, it was said that a Vimana was a flying vehicle that the Hindu Gods like Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma rode on while sitting on a throne.

They even claim there is a book that explains their functions and how it could fly. Some even claimed that it inspired what we now know as a flying carpet found Arabian Nights aka Aladdin.

In an episode of Ancient Aliens Debunked, Chris White goes into detail on what the Vimanas were exactly. In the Hindu texts it is said that the word Vimana meant “temple” or “palace”, in fact it is basically a temple on a chariot with wheels that came from the sky or heavens(I’ll get to that later).

The book that the Ancient Aliens Theorists were referring, had detailed descriptions on how they flew. It was later confirmed in Ancient Aliens Debunked that it was in fact a hoax. Aircraft experts have even said that the designs for such contraptions would be impossible to get off the ground.

Now I would like to talk about another UFO sighting that Ancient Aliens Theorists believe came from The Bible. Do you remember that Nicholas Cage movie called Knowing?

I’m still trying to forget it! If you haven’t seen it, you are the lucky ones! For you lucky ones, I’ll just give you a brief summary of the movie, so that you’re up to speed. It’s basically loosely based on the Prophet Ezekiel’s dream found in the Old Testament. To sum up the first chapter of Ezekiel, it says that the Prophet saw a creature with many faces, eyes, and wings. It even talked about there being wheels… Sounds like something out of a horror sci-fi movie right? And get this, the plot was that Ezekiel saw really saw…

If you’re familiar with Ezekiel’s writings, he’s very descriptive and the majority of the biblical texts are taking metaphorically rather than literally. Ezekiel’s dream is what it is, strictly metaphorical. White said that what Ezekiel was describing was actually God sitting on His throne.

In other texts in The Bible, God’s throne can also be described as being a “Chariot of fire”. I find White’s statement very interesting, especially when comparing it to the Hindu texts about the Vimanas. Here are some of the similarities between the Vimanas and the Throne of God:

1- Both have wheels

2- Both have thrones for their Gods

3- Both came from the sky

With that being said…

If you do something once, people will call it an accident. If you do it twice, they call it a coincidence. But do it a third time and you’ve just proven a natural law.

I believe it isn’t mere coincidence that both religions talk about something very similar when it comes to their description of a chariot belonging to a Supreme Creator, who is coming from the sky. Could both texts be talking about the same thing? I’m positive that there are more accounts in other religions and mythologies! Like it is said in the book of Matthew, “…in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.”

What do you think? Could the Vimanas and the Throne of God be the same thing? Let me know in the comments below!
