My most incredible paranormal experience | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

One of the questions I always have a hard time answering is: What’s the most incredible, bizarre, or unique paranormal experience I’ve ever had?

Difficult, because I have had so many extraordinary, unbelievable paranormal encounters during more than 25 years of research into this controversial field that it’s hard to single out any of them.

For example, I have walked on fire in Tagaytay without getting my feet burned; received messages from spirits of the dead which have been verified by their intended recipients; went out of my physical body many times through astral projection; accurately predicted events; healed a number of people by laying my hands on them; and hacked

a total of six times in my lap and stomach region with a razor-sharp, 21-inch, double-edged sword—without suffering wounds.

Egyptian scribe

I’ve received a message from an ancient Egyptian scribe and keeper of secret knowledge named Amenhotep, who probably lived 5,000 years ago; met and talked to a feminine-looking alien in a mystical place in Lucban, Quezon; received messages while in a trance from the star cluster Pleiades and a wise angelic entity called Ishmael; saw spirits of the dead on at least four different occasions, one of which happened at the Ideal Ranch in Jaffrey, Canada; saw UFOs in different places a number of times; and underwent several psychic operations and many more.

But looking back, all these paranormal encounters and experiences were not unique to me. Many other people have gone through similar situations and have reported them in magazines, books and psychic journals.

If I were to choose a most extraordinary, unbelievable, unique and completely bizarre experience which defies laws of physics and logic, it would be the following story in which a half-hidden face in a still photograph moved before my very eyes, revealing its full face!

This happened in the mid-1990s in the office of a businessman named Ric, who

was into a pyramid financing scheme.

He was showing me a picture taken in Sta. Lucia in the mystic Mt. Banahaw, where a duwende or elemental supposedly appeared. 

There was a picture of a friend of Ric sitting on a fallen trunk. At the edge of the trunk was the supposed elf or elemental of the earth.

Although he was pointing at the creature which he could see, I could not make out anything resembling an elemental creature, no matter how closely I looked at the picture. This incident was witnessed by my wife Yoly and Ric’s secretary Charisse.

Peeping out

Examining the photo very closely, I was attracted to a human face half appearing behind one of the rocks on the brook. I pointed it out to them and they all saw the figure half hidden by the rock, as if peeping out.

Staring at the picture, I was getting an eerie feeling. I said aloud, “Who could this person be? Why doesn’t he show his full face?”

But then suddenly and distinctly I saw the half face move out of the rock, revealing the full face!

It turned out to be the face of Dr. José Rizal, whom legend says appeared occasionally in Mt. Banahaw and has been seen by mystics and hermits in the area.

All of us saw the face emerge out of the rock. We witnessed the incredible, logic-defying incident.

And then I went into a trance and gave a message apparently for Ric. He said he had been praying for such a message, which was very relevant to him. Unfortunately, I couldn’t remember anything of what I said while in a trance. 

Ric, however, was convinced it came from Rizal because, as he said, he had been invoking a message from the national hero that afternoon.

Why Rizal? I asked. Ric said he was a distant descendant of Rizal.

That was a bizarre, extraordinary incident—definitely the most incredible and unique paranormal experience I have ever had in my life.

I don’t expect anybody to believe this story, because it goes against logic and physics. A still picture cannot move by itself from where it is located in the frame. It is not a motion picture. And yet this one did, witnessed by three other individuals.

And because it is utterly impossible, given the known laws of  physical sciences and rational thought, the whole incident can only be regarded as either a hallucination or a big joke. So be it.

Erratum: Mr. Dy-Liacco sent in two corrections in last week’s column. First, “I had prostate cancer, not pancreatic.” Second, “Chlorine dissolves after 35 minutes out of the faucet, not five minutes.”

The next Inner Mind Development Seminar, which includes visualization, will be on Sept. 12-13, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Interested parties may call tel. 8107245 or 0998-9886292, or e-mail [email protected]
