Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone can help me out with something. I am looking for a book or any knowledge on a place that was described on Art Bell's show, way back in the early-mid 90's about a green/white city made of Marble, Wood, and Iron. The green/white portion was the color of the atmosphere and marble in general. He had a guest on who described this place in the exact way I remember it when I was there briefly, but I never got the name of the book or who the guest was. If you will allow me, I'll tell you the story behind how I ended up there.
My mother-in-law had passed away years before my wife and I had gotten married, but it was a traumatic time for my wife who still misses her parents to this day nearly 25 years later. One night, I had been up late doing some work in my home office and by that time my wife had already gone to bed. In my office, I had a little futon I could sleep on and did just that. I went to sleep, but then I remember walking up in a place, not my home, flying in the air. Below me and off in the distance was this place. I'd never seen it before, it was large and circular. Like a giant round fence. The wall of this place were 20' - 30' high. They were made of, I believe some kind of unidentifiable wood. These walls were very thick. They were also banded with metal and studded, and I believe it was Iron. I was still flying and the entire atmosphere of this place was green/white. not like a light, but more of like a glow.
As I approached this place and the closer I got the larger it became, I could see it was a city. I've never seen anything like it. Now mind you, this was not a dream. What I was seeing didn't have that blurry type of dream like quality of visuals that dream, or at least mine had. This was like me being physically present in a physical place. Anyway, as I approached this 'city' and got close, there were these two gate. They were absolutely massive, made of this same wood and iron banded and studded. I'd say at least 80' to 100' tall. I'm an engineer by trade, so I know my distance units of measure pretty well and that's how big I estimate they were due to my flying speed and altitude.
I flew over these huge doors into this city and below me was a network of streets with homes that were made of the same wood the outer circular walls were and others made of what I believe was this green/white marble. They were everywhere. I flew around looking, but I didn't see any living things around. The entire place was empty. After a little while of flying, off in the distance I saw what looked like giant green/white marbled bowl, what I later came to realize was an amphitheater. It was massive. Larger than the Roman Coliseum by far. Just a big big place at least 3 times the size of a the biggest football stadiums. At least.
So flew into it and as I did so, I noticed that there were people dressed in these greenish/whitish glowing robes. Mind you, the green and white colors were very very subtle. Very muted. it isn't like a green green in your face green, but almost like a soft, subtle hint of a transparent type of green and white. There wasn't a lot of people in this massive place, but in the middle of this place was a large marble dais. Just a large, rectangular, chunk of marble, or what I believe to be marble sitting in the middle of this place. However, what really amazed me was what was above this marble dais and that was these white, wispy things that were alight, glowing with bright white light, floating above this dais moving back and forth as if someone had taken a pole and stuck a bed-sheet on it and was waving it back and forth slowly and seeing the sheet move through the air. That's what these things look like.
So as I'm flying around this large bowled coliseum, looking at these things, i notice a couple of people sitting not to far from this location, so i fly towards them and they are my wife and an older friend of my wife sitting there. So fly over and sit in between them. Neither of them acknowledge my presence. So what seemed like forever as I stare towards the middle of this dais and am utterly enraptured by these flying wispy things, I feel the compulsion to get up and go towards them, so I do. I walk down to the dais, get on top of it, go stand in the middle of it and as I do, one of these wispy things flies over to me and enters my body through my chest. Just as that happens, who I am as an individual gets pushed aside. It's like I'm inside my body, but I'm not in control. I'm just an observer. I'm not being pushed out, just moved over and my mother-in-law makes herself known. This is my mother-in-laws soul and she enters my body and she tells me to tell her daughter, my wife, that is alright. That everything will be fine and that's she's okay and she'll be okay. This lasted a long time. I don't know if anything else was said or communicated, but this was the gist of what I remember.
And just like that, poof, she exits my body and goes back to the large grouping of other 'souls'. Then that's the time I wake up. My eyes slam open, and I start breathing heavily and not moving. I recognize that I'm in my office, laying on my futon, but now I'm very scared. So i get up and I go to our bedroom and I get into the bed, and my wife wakes up and asks me if I'm okay and I tell her no. I'm not, so I explain to her what just happened. She listens intently, but thinks it was a dream, but I know it wasn't.
Then a few a months later we are driving back from Disneyland and on the drive back we are listening to Art Bell interview a man who has also been to this place and was describing it in detail the exact way I remembered it. Everything. The color, the wood, the huge gate, the dais, the wispy souls. Everything. I'm pointing at the radio and tell my wife, this is the place, this is the place, but in the excitement, I never heard the mans name or the book.
So, I came here to ask any of you that are reading this, have any of you experienced this or have heard this show, know this man or his book? If so, please reply here. This has haunted me for years and I'd like to know what I experienced. Thank you for reading this.
