This reminded me of how little we actually understand about what’s right in front of us. Sometimes I think the more we try to measure everything, the more we forget how to feel it. I don’t know if gnomes are real in the way we define “real,” but I definitely believe in intelligences and energies that we don’t fully perceive.

This left me with a lot to sit with, and I mean that in the best way.

Another great article Arjun. Have you checked out the book 'The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns and Fairies' by Robert Kirk? This area in Scotland I know well as I had relatives there, and did some research for a film script of mine on the subject. Jacques Vallee wrote about it in his book 'Dimensions'. I think it's a real phenomenon. Check it out if you haven't already. All the best!

An excellent modern example of human and elemental contact can be found in the creation of Findhorn community in Scotland. Contained in a book called The Findhorn Garden is a remarkable story and well worth reading.

Have you ever read In The Light of Truth, the Grail Message? Abd-ru-shin talks a lot about elementals in this book. I didn't resonate with his downer on humanity, but it's quite something to read.

My man! Dude, myths are real because they explain a deeper part of reality. However, mainstream science can’t profit if you understand the inner workings of reality, so we don’t know these things.

In my book, I devote a whole chapter to this reality. I actually discuss fairies briefly as well.
