Original Message An amazing article to read about the sacred places on Earth: [link to theunboundedspirit.com]

Excerpt: "It may be argued that most of the world’s religions — from the most ‘primitive’ to the most highly developed — were established through manifestations of the sacred. It is of vital importance to religion that the manifestation is perceived not as generated by the beholder but as the purposeful revelation of god (or some lesser deity or saint) to the mortal beholder. Fundamental to human psychology is the belief in the supernatural, of a world inhabited by spirits and gods and other powerful primeval forces beyond human comprehension. Eliade therefore chooses the term hierophany (something sacred shows itself to us) to describe and define the act of the manifestation of the sacred."

Do you think that REAL sacred places on Earth exist or that some people just believe them to be sacred?
