List Members,
Excerpts from You Could Learn a Lot from a Daitya:
http://www.skyboom.com/hollowearthpuranas/index13.html
Here the guide is explaining that huge caverns and cavities deep within the
Earth's inner shell do not typically collapse due to the weight of the Earth
above them because the effects of gravity diminish the deeper one
penetrates.
While conversing about the configuration of continents, The Guide
illuminated his charge by saying: " You argue from an erroneous hypothesis.
The Earth is neither rigid nor solid."
" True," I answered. " If it were solid I could not be a hundred miles
beneath its surface in conversation with another being; but there cannot be
many such cavities as that which we are now traversing, and they cannot
surely extend entirely through its mass; the great weight of the
superincumbent material would crush together the strongest materials, if a
globe as large as our earth were extensively honeycombed in this manner."
...
On page 201 we can see that, the deeper the pair penetrated the Earth's
shell, the less exhaustive was simple movement thanks to a diminuition of
gravity:
" ... we had been rapidly walking, or I should better say advancing, for we
no longer walked as men do, but skipped down into the Earth, down, ever
downward. ... I was sensible of a marked decrease of muscular energy
required to carry us onward, and I realized that my body was quite exempt
from weariness. Motion became restful instead of exhausting, and it seemed
to me that the ratio of the loss of weight, as shown by our free movements,
in proportion to the distance we traversed, was greater than formerly. The
slightest exhibition of propelling force cast us rapidly forward. Instead of
the laborious, short step of upper earth, a single leap would carry us many
yards. A slight spring, and with our bodies in space, we would skip several
rods, alighting gently, to move again as easily. I marveled, for, although I
had been led to anticipate something unusual, the practical evidence was
wonderfully impressive, and I again questioned my guide.
...
If, however, we give a chance to the idea that gravity effects are brought
about by an electromagnetic radiation, then the above descriptions from
Etidorhpa acquire new meaning. This concept has been better developed in our
essay entitled Clouds Don't Fall, but it suffices to say that such an
electromagnetic radiation would not be able to penetrate uniformly, nor
100%, through Earth's shell; at different depths there would be further
transformations of frequency and thus the gravity-inducing frequency would
experience frequencies that impede its passage in strata further down. In
this way, gravity would diminish the further down one penetrated, giving
rise to the experiences related by The Man
Members-
Go take another look at Pratt's gravity page:
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/dp5/gravity.htm
Remember, it is difficult to substantiate the hollow Earth theory given a
scheme of gravity induced by the density of matter. Here are some of Pratt's
comments from the section of his page entittled Gravity Anomalies:
" Rather than being a direct function of the quantity of matter, the
strength of the gravitational force appears to depend on the electrical and
other properties of matter. The local gravity field may vary due to the
ability of negatively charged particles and ions to screen or counteract the
attractive force of gravity, and to the capacity of different types of rock
to emit and absorb gravity-inducing radiation under different conditions.
There may also be huge caverns in the earth's outer shell. This would be
impossible if the newtonian theory were correct and gravity had unlimited
penetrability, since pressures would increase all the way to the earth's
centre. Even a few miles beneath the earth's surface the immense pressures
would cause any large cavities to collapse. But if the orthodox assumptions
are wrong, many interesting possibilities open up. Gravity Anomalies."
