Effect of the Whispering Gallery

S. V. Sukhinin

“Whispering galleries” is not the exact name: certainly, it is not the walls, it is the people standing near these walls that whisper, but this is the term that has gained wide acceptance. Several whispering galleries, walls, and buildings mainly associated with religious sanctuaries or heathen temples are known in the world.

It is clear that the ministers of the corresponding religions or stewards of these buildings support the opinion that these buildings are magically exceptional and even sacredly mysterious, because this opinion serves their interests.

Such an opinion is imposed on the insufficiently educated public by means of skilful, well-presented, and wide advertising.

Most people do not have enough time to think about the real reasons for this mysterious phenomenon caused by the laws of nature.

Because of the lack of time or education, most people willingly believe what they are told.

We all like secrets. Crowds of tourists and inquisitive people, with sinking hearts, whisper in these miraculous buildings.

More information on these and other subjects you can find in the printed version of our journal.
