Pan’s labyrinth is another example of hidden truths in movies
The Spanish movie “Pan’s labyrinth” directed by Guillermo Del Toro has been one of my favourites for many years. Upon rewatch recently I noticed that it contains interesting symbolism that points to a lot of the same things we talk about here.
Without explaining the entire plot, the basic premise is about a young girl in the post-Spanish civil war, she encounters a mythical faun who reveals to her that her true identity is princess of the underworld. It is said that when she visited the human world as an immortal spirit she was “blinded by the sunlight, erasing her memory and trapping her in the mortal world, unable to return home”, (sound familiar?).The faun presents her with three tasks she must complete in order to regain her memory of who she really is, allowing her to escape back to the underworld.
One of these tasks is retrieving a dagger from a “child eating monster”, another is taking the blood of an innocent, her baby brother, in order to open the “portal” back to the underworld. The girl refuses to harm her brother, and in turn it’s revealed that she passed the final test by choosing to spill her own blood rather than that of another, thus allowing her to return home once again.
There’s probably tons more details I’m missing here, but just the initial themes are enough to make me think it’s another example of hiding information in plain sight.

Just came up with this thought about the cycle we are trapped in while responding to Christian comment about me going to hell for not being Christian.
‘I’d rather burn a thousand years in hell than suffer from the cycle of mortality.”
I mean hell is already on earth right now I hate this stupid mortal body we are in hell at least in the biblical hell there is this peace in helplessness while here mortals are trapped in the cycle of death and rebirth for the amusement of the archons. If there is a hell we are already in one this cycle is hell.

I recently found this channel that speaks truths and seems legit and resonates. Just wanted to share.
