Origin of the Vampire (4/19/24)

from The Secret Teachings · host Ryan Gable

A woman was recently found dead with her blood drained in an abandoned church in Italy. The last people to see her alive, and her boyfriend, said they were dressed like vampires. Although this is a very odd story, it probably has nothing to do with the vampire legend. But how do you define what this creature is? Scientists recently discovered a microbe that feeds on human blood, a motif found in mosquitos, vampire bats, and even in zombies and witches. Just as demons are personifications of mental and physical disease, the vampire legend is itself likely the result of certain diseases which cause the characteristics of this mythical monster, like larger teeth, an avoidance of garlic and sunlight, and pale skin.  -FREE ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachingsTwitter: https://twitter.com/TST___RadioFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachingsWEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early show access): http://thesecretteachings.infoPaypal: [email protected]: $rdgableBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/tstradioSUBSCRIBE TO NETWORK: http://aftermath.mediaEMAIL: [email protected] / [email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings--5328407/support.Thank you for supporting independent, unbiased inquiry into the mysteries of our world.
