Everburning Lamp Mystery.

In the old days , everyone still using oil lamps . In medieval times , when the looting occurred tomb discovered this ancient lights still burning in tombs closed / sealed in various places , especially Europe . Though based encryption listed in the tomb or the time since the tomb was made , the tomb has been there hundreds to thousands of years before the tomb was opened . It defines the lights are placed inside the tomb was kept burning thousands of years . Is such a thing really exist ? This is the mystery " Eternal Light "

Oil lamps .

Before discussing this mystery , it helps us to know about oil lamps . Oil lamp is a lamp that functions like a candle but using oil as fuel . The oil and wicks were varied material . For oil there is the use of olive oil , fish oil , and so on . The sections of this oil lamp is no hole for refueling , pit where the fire exit , and grip . How it works axis will be put in the lamp , placed at the exit end of the fire , another one at the end where the oil is located . Fire lit and will absorb oil as fuel for the flame continued to burn for some time .

Eternal Mystery Lights , Findings .

Why is found in the tombs ? That's because people used to think , those who died will need natural light to guide him in death . So in place of light in a place like that.

It is a story about the discovery of the light ;

Plutarch , a Roman historian , once wrote about a lamp in the temple of Jupiter Ammon door , according to the pastor there , the lights remain lit for centuries without fuel and wind can not be extinguished even water .
St . Augustine, a Latin philosopher ( 354-430 ) describes a temple in Egypt with a light that can not be extinguished wind and water . He said they had this thing as an artificial demon .
In the year 527 , in Edessa ( or Antioch ) , Syria , when the emperor Justinian , soldiers found the eternal light in the arch at the gate . The lamp enclosed protected from the air . Based on the inscriptions are listed there , the lights were turned on in 27 . Means that the lamp has been burning for 500 years , before being destroyed by the soldiers found
In 1401, near Rome a lamp found in the tomb of Pallas , son of the Trojan king , Evander . Which has been burning for more than 2000 years , can not be turned off in the usual way as the water and the wind . How to turn it off just by sucking / spend all strange liquid contained in the lamp .
But , Pallas Evander also exists only in epic Aeneid , and no doubt his grave in the real world .
Around the year 1540 , in the pontificate of Paul III , a lamp found near the Appian Way in Rome . The tomb is believed to belong to Tulliola , son of Cicero , a Roman orator . He died in the year 44 BC. Versions for this case vary , some say it was found in 1480 and died 45 BC Tulliola The lights were found dead and can not be turned back due to the opening of the door of the tomb , as the " Met " in the air .

In 1534 , when the future King Henry VIII do with the separation of the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church Monastery Dissolution events , many tombs were looted . in Yorkshire , a lamp that lights are found in the tomb Constantious Chlorus , father of Constantine the Great . He died in the year 300 , which means that the light was kept burning for more than 1200 years .
In France , near Grenoble , in the mid 17th century , a young Swiss soldier , Du Praz was accidentally discovered an ancient tomb entrance . He found the lights on and bring it to the Abbey . The pastor was surprised to see that the discovery of the light and stored in a convent , a few months later a minister dropped the lamp shattering . When she gets older , Du Praz tell this to Johann Helfrich Jungken , which then publishes through his treatise " Curious Experimental Chemistry " In 1681 Giovanni Baptista Porta Della Porta or, in his treatise "Natural Magic", in 1550, on the island of Nesis , Naples bay , a tomb was found with the bright lights on inside , the lamp is in a glass tube . However, while the entry of air into the tomb , the lights went pale and die so quickly . The tomb was said to have existed before the era of Christ begins .
Ludovicus Vives , in his letter to St . Augustine in 1610 , wrote about the discovery of the light at the time of his father , in 1580 AD . Based on the inscription , the lamp has been burning for 1500 years but fell to pieces when touched. Ludovicus not agree with St. Augustine, according to the light is the result of the discovery of someone who is skilled and wise, not made with the devil.
A further discovery occurred in about the year 1500 near Ateste , a small town in Padua , Italy by a man from the countryside who were digging in the field , find a large box , thinking to find the treasure , forcibly opened by that person . In it was found jars of clay , along with two small jars , one of gold and one of silver . In a small jar , there weird fluid . In jars of clay, where there is a small clay jar containing within it a lamp. In clay jars outside , there is the Latin inscription means that in case :
" This ministry is dedicated to Pluto . Thieves, do not touch the place I knew unknown as there is in the earth. Maximus Olybius is appropriately presented.
Thing here as the protector himself and his resources. Liquid is not worth for rest"
In a small jar containing inscriptions ;
" Get out of here , go thief . Kau -faced and dressed like a spy . Go as fast as Mercury , with hat and caduceusnya . Maximus Olybius Leave a superb offering for Pluto "
Based Fraternatis manifesto Fama , Christian tombs Rosenkreuz , founder of the Rosicrucian Brotherhood , opened 120 after his death by the villagers . Inside was found the lights blazing , but when people come in and it's getting accidentally stepped on something ( may trigger ) on the floor , inside the tomb automaton moves mechanically and destroy the lamp with a stick . Then the lights be kept confidential .
It says there are 2 lights that are stored in the University of Leyden . But there is no further info about this thing there .
Moreover these lights are found also in the sealed tomb near Memphis and Temple Brahmins in India , but when the intake air , the fire dies and make the fuel evaporates . Some say the eternal light also found in various parts of the world .

Enterprises - Enterprises Solve the Mystery .

In this period, medieval influences are still very large and difficult to study and research, so many people who think that something strange and mysterious as the work-made ​​demons.
Francisco Torreblanco publish text books in 1623 , where he asks " Does this thing work demon ? " , Even though in the end he believes this thing as a natural wonder . Can be made ​​with the right materials and skilled inventor .
After Torreblanco and some other experts think about these issues , to be a little expert who believes this thing is made by the devil . Even if there are some skeptics , such as Johannes Faber , Sir Kenelm Digby , Pierre Petit and several others , who concluded no such lamps . There are also those who argue that finding this light one can see, they actually saw a flash of metal or gems in the dark eating , and one identifies as the fire lit .
French mathematician Marin Mersenne (1588-1648) , not only believe in the eternal light of this , he even made ​​the recipe . Unfortunately the recipe is lost , the possibility of Mersenne recipe is similar to a recipe from Mazzota Benedetto
( 1653 ) makes the axis of asbestos and oil made from human feces .
Some believe the use of light axis of Asbestos , or commonly called the Alchemists Salamander 's Wool . The oil is also used Alchemy products .
Athanasius Kircher , a Jesuit Graduate trying to extract oil from asbestos because they believe the object was fire resistant and able to make a lamp . But after two years of probation with no results , he says it is impossible .
In 1669 , German alchemist Hennig Brand of Hamburg discovered a substance in the form of soft iron which can be lit in the dark . This substance we call Phosphorus .
1674 , experimenter and British naturalist Robert Plot , conducted a study on the lights . Initially he surveyed the literature back to the 16th century and find ample testimony of the witnesses for the existence of the light . From there Plots think , what makes it durable axis ? It used to be said using asbestos , but he usually has enough iron . He experimented with iron wire , which failed to contain the fire . Next he found the use of refractory gold wire and corrosion resistance .
Next fuel , he asked what materials are used ? No oil , as pure as any that burned so long to fire a thousand years. He thinks the solution is a major source of oil around the lights . If the tomb was made around the source of the oil , then the oil will be sufficient for thousands of years . Some experts also assume so .
Another question occurred to plot , how a fire can be lit in a closed room ? although oxygen has not been " found " in those days , people were already convinced combustion requires air . Plot decide , the light will turn on only when the door is opened . How? Air impregnation with gold wire phosphorus sufficient to turn on the lights . Sometimes phosphorus will burn if it met the air , especially if the air was humid . When the door of the tomb is opened , air will come in and light a fire , this is the plot theory .
But the plot of this mystery has not been solved , there is no evidence of the use of phosphorus lamp , even the first person was not familiar with phosphorus , besides being a mysterious liquid fuel is the normal amount . There is no connection to the source of oil or gas have been reported .

Eternal Light recipe ?

There are recipes from Willy Schrodter eternal light , a researcher Rosicrucians , here's the recipe :
" It takes ingredients 1 1/2 Ounce 1 Ounce Sulfur and Alum Fuel . ( 1 Ounce = 28 grams )
and put them in a pot sublimation after thorough mixing . Place the pot mouth like the mouth of this bond and seal the well with cement pottery . The inside of the pan with the mixture set on fire so that it becomes red hot coal for about an hour , and fixed mass sublimation is taken to be destroyed by a mortar . Half pure borax added to the mortar and the resulting powder was then reduced to a powder in a mortar similar . This powder is placed in a glass or porcelain basin shallow and covered with ethyl alcohol (High Rectified Spirit of Wine ) . This basin is now placed in hot ashes , which is on top of a coal fire in a small pot , and alcohol allowed to evaporate slowly. When the object is somewhat thickened, such as oil, a little part will be removed and placed on a piece of hot copper .
Now if this thing is like wax and smokeless, then it is ready, but, if it still smoky, alcohol should be poured back into the basin and evaporated as before , and this process must be repeated until the sample is no longer emitting smoke when tested. The product is then ready .
Axis will now be made , about 2 inches long and as thick as a large quill . The material used is a white fibrous asbestos or gypsum ( steatite ) tied with silk thread . Objects that are ready then placed in a strong glass , wick inserted and materials that had been stored for 24 hours in the hot sand . Axis is pulled up the hole until only small portions of the axis visible and pour hot sulfur mass , and the glass is placed in the hot sand until the mass of sulfur melted and gathered around the axis . Finally , the light that has been prepared in this way will be lit with the light and placed in a place where it will not be disturbed. Then it will continue to burn without ever die . "
Actually there is one more recipe from H.P. Blavatsky's Isis Unveiled in his book . But because the same recipe and more clearly artificial Willy , I chose Willy , if you want to see please visit the web Sacred Text .

Modern Eternal Fire .

( Eternal Fire " Tomb of Unknown Soldier " )

Eternal flame not only in ancient times , today many eternal flame memorial made ​​for the benefit of an event . But the fire is not truly immortal , this fire is supplied by a gas line located not far from the fire , and hidden place. , Eg Eternal Fire " Tomb of Unknown Soldier " in Russia , and the eternal flame of John F. Kennedy in America .  There is also an eternal flame that keeps most natural gas supply coming out of the earth like the Eternal Fire in Mrapen , Central Java and the " Gates of Hell " in Turmeknistan.

Explanations That Allows .

Bishop John Wilkins , one of the inventors of the Royal Society , said the lights visible when the door is opened , it is possible for Fosforesens , which is a natural product of the decomposition of animals and plants . Posed little light is bright enough for circumstances that are so dark . Because the light of this, there is the impression that the light was coming from the fire . But he did not say , in addition to fuel , there is the possibility of inlet air supply to the combustion . With the fosforesens, people thought the "art" of making lamps have been found, but in fact the ability of phosphorescence will disappear after some time in the dark , and need longer exposures to light to activate the back lighting .
If viewed from the story , strange enough for the existence of these objects , from the Tomb of Pallas that should not be there ( Tomb of Pallas Pallas there is only a freed slave , not the son of the Trojan king ) . All the same fate lamp , which is destroyed or dead . But from the story , the type of light that is quite varied , from there you can not die by the wind and even water , and can only be turned off by spending a liquid fuel , there also are dead when it meets the air . Both types are practically impossible , the fire usually subjected to water or wind dies . And the second type , it turns on when the Fire meet the air , instead of dying . Fire even need air for combustion processes , whereas in the sealed tomb , there are air will be exhausted to the initial burning lamp . Is this true of the object ?
Some other questions arise , why not find the light again ? Are all been plundered runs out ? If the lamp should be widespread , it will still be found even when the renaissance , what happens ? Of whether the object is created ? Is there an invisible secret of the lights ?
We know there are some descriptions above will this thing , which is derived from the Asbestos axis (Age of majority believe it is ) , Oil unclear origin possibility alchemy products or use olive oil or regular oil like a normal lamp . Most lights waterproof and wind , most die if the air meet . Some were there in a sealed glass tube .

Several explanations are possible  ;

- Eternal Light only see mistakes witnesses who saw a flash of light rock gems ( Eyewitness glimpse ) . But this can not explain the fire Maximus Olybius also some other lights such as lamps Du Praz visible as light , too light in Edessa / Antioch and other lights that look straight and not at a glance .
- Lights are seen lasting phosphorescence events , as explained above , phosphorescence can not explain some cases . Plus phosphorescence properties are rare , and also people that age are not familiar with phosphorus .
- There is a hole for air supply and fuel supply lines , this is evidence that the most likely in my opinion , because the hole is easily made ​​hidden in the tomb , can be made at angles that are rarely seen , makes an impression when hollow closed space . But this denies the lights off when in contact with air . For the supply line , some experts like Kircher and others support this theory , because the channel can be hidden from the sight of witnesses . But denying Du Praz light and portable Olybius Maximus .
From any source, the opposite type of light will complicate and create skepticism. Because if these two types actually exist , it means that the material used is different . Or if all the same type of light , there is a source of hoax stories . Either of different materials or sources of error . But all of these stories have been accepted and included in the various books and sources even in the paper . The existence of these lamps have largely accepted and almost free from skepticism , even if the contents of the lamp itself dubious .

( Pittsburg newspaper , the Post -Gazette , Wednesday, February 11, 1903 )

For the recipe , is not known to be true because there has been no reports of people who managed to make it . Maybe you could try it .
Unfortunately , all the lights were destroyed , because it is considered as the result of artificial demon . So it can not be researched ingredients as the original object was not there . Until now the mystery is still debated and not yet found a bright spot . So , thank you for reading this article. Written and posted by Bambang Sunarno. sunarnobambang86@gmail.com
