POGO - The Killer Clown

To everyone who met him, John Wayne Gacy seemed a likable and affable man. He was widely respected in the community, charming and easy to get along with. He was a good Catholic and sharp businessman who, when not running his construction company was active in the Jaycees and was also a Democratic Party precinct captain, when he had his photo taken with then First Lady, Rosalynn Carter. He also spent much of his free time hosting elaborate street parties for his friends and neighbors, serving in community groups and entertaining children as "Pogo the Clown". He was a generous, hard working, friendly, devoted family man, everyone knew that -- but that was the side of John Wayne Gacy that he allowed people to see.

Underneath the smiling mask of the clown was the face of depraved fiend.

Background and Early Life

Notorious serial killer John Wayne Gacy was born on March 17, 1942, in Chicago, Illinois. The son of Danish and Polish parents, Gacy and his siblings grew up with a drunken father who would beat the children with a razor strap if they were perceived to have misbehaved; the man physically assaulted Gacy's mother as well. Gacy's sister Karen would later say that the siblings learned to toughen up against the beatings, and that Gacy would not cry.

The boy suffered further alienation at school, unable to play with other children due to a congenital heart condition that was looked upon by his father as another failing. Gacy later realized he was attracted to men, and experienced great turmoil over his sexuality.

History of Sexual Assaults

Gacy worked as a fast-food chain manager during the 1960s and became a self-made building contractor and Democratic precinct captain in the Chicago suburbs in the 1970s. Well-liked in his community and a clown performer at children's parties, Gacy also organized cultural gatherings. He was married and divorced twice and had biological children and stepchildren.

Yet Gacy had a highly disturbing history. He was convicted in 1968 and given a 10-year prison term in relation to the sexual assault of two teen boys. He was released on parole in the summer of 1970 but was arrested the following year again after another teen accused Gacy of sexual assault; the charges were dropped when the boy didn't appear during the trial. By the middle of the decade, two more young males accused Gacy of rape, and he would be questioned by police about the disappearances of others.

It was later discovered that he had committed his first known killing in 1972, taking the life of Timothy McCoy after luring the teen to his home.

Serial Killings

On December 11, 1978, 15-year-old Robert Piest went missing. It was reported to police that the boy was last seen by his mother at the store he worked at as he headed out to meet Gacy in relation to a potential job. On December 21, a police search of Gacy's house in Norwood Park Township, Illinois, uncovered evidence of his involvement in numerous horrific acts, including murder. It would later be determined that Gacy had killed 33 boys and young men, the majority of whom had been buried under the house and garage, while others would be recovered from the nearby Des Plaines River.

Gacy lured his victims with the promise of construction work, and then captured, sexually assaulted and eventually strangled most of them with rope. When he killed, he sometimes dressed as his alter ego "Pogo the Clown."

Question of Sanity

Gacy's trial began on February 6, 1980, with a prosecution team headed by William Kunkle. With Gacy having confessed to the crimes, the arguments were focused on whether he could be declared insane and thus remitted to a state mental facility. Gacy had told police that the murders had been committed by an alternate personality, while mental health professionals testified for both sides about Gacy's mental state.

Imprisonment and Death

Ultimately found guilty of committing 33 murders after a short jury deliberation, Gacy became known as one of the most vicious serial killers in U.S. history. He was sentenced to serve 12 death sentences and 21 natural life sentences. He was imprisoned at the Menard Correctional Center for almost a decade and a half, appealing the sentence and offering contradictory statements on the murders in interviews. Though he had confessed, Gacy later denied being guilty of the charges and had a 900 number set up with a 12-minute recorded statement of his innocence. He took up visual art as well, and his paintings were shown to the public via an exhibition at a Chicago gallery.
With both anti–death penalty forces and those in favor of the execution making their opinions known, John Wayne Gacy died by lethal injection on May 10, 1994, at the Stateville Correctional Center in Crest Hill, Illinois.
There have been lingering concerns that Gacy may have responsible for the deaths of others whose bodies have yet to be found, with the Cook County sheriff's office pushing to search a Chicago apartment building where Gacy once worked as a maintenance employee.

Time travel and Teleportation

Time travelling and time machines have been a topic of science fiction and countless movies for many decades. In fact, it appears that the possibility to travel in time, either into the future or into the past, has appealed to the imagination of mankind for centuries.  While many may think it is absurd to believe that we could travel back or forwards in time, some of the world’s most brilliant scientists have investigated whether it could one day be made a reality.

However, if time travel really was possible, one can hardly contemplate what this may mean for humanity for whoever has the power to move through time, has the power to modify history. While this may sound attractive, it would be impossible to know the consequences of any alteration of past events, and how this would affect the future.

TIME TRAVEL AND TELEPORTATION IN ANCIENT MYTHOLOGY 


If we look into ancient texts we can find a number of references to time travelling. In Hindu

Brahma and king kakudmi

mythology, there is the story of King Raivata Kakudmi who travels to meet the creator Brahma. Even if this trip didn’t last long, when Kakudmi returned back to Earth, 108 yugas had passed on Earth, and it is thought that each yuga represents about 4 million years. The explanation Brahma gave to Kakudmi is that time runs differently in different planes of existence. Similarly, we have references in the Quran about the cave of Al-Kahf. The story refers to a group of young Christian people, who in 250 AD tried to escape persecution and retreated, under God’s guidance, to a cave where God put them to sleep. They woke up 309 years later. This story coincides with the Christian story of the seven sleepers , with a few differences.

Consider the story of Usha and Chitralekha, which appears in "Srimad Bhagavatam." The beautiful Princess Usha, single and longing for love, had the experience of a handsome youth in her dream one night. The dream was interrupted, and she woke up and exclaimed, "Oh, beloved one, where are you?" She confided the dream to her close friend Chitralekha. Chitralekha said she would find who the young man was and get him to her. But how was she to recognize him?
Chitralekha began to draw a series of faces, and asked Usha if any of them resembled the man of her dream. Usha came upon a drawing which was of Aniruddha, a grandson of Lord Krishna. That night, Chitralekha transported herself to Dwaraka where she found Aniruddha. Two aspects of today's world are implicit in this story. First there is the idea that one can identify an unknown person through sketches, a matter that is routinely done in criminal investigations. Then, of course, there is the notion of teleportation.

Another story comes from the Japanese legend of Urashima Taro . Urashima Taro was an individual who was said to visit the underwater palace of the Dragon God Ryujin.

Urashima taro

He stayed there for three days, but when he returned to the surface, 300 years had passed. In the Buddhist text, Pali Canon , it is written that in the heaven of the thirty Devas (the place of the Gods), time passes at a different pace where one hundred Earth years count as a single day for them. And there are many more references.
As we have studied that mass can change into energy and energy can change into mass, that is simple concept of Teleportation.Teleportation is the transportation of a person or object from one place to another instantaneously.

In Hindu mythology, the first example of teleportation was used by a saint "Narad"

Narad

who is devotee to Lord Vishnu and messenger to all Gods. He always change his mass into energy.Saint Narad has a "Veena" in his hand and spreads teaching of Gods around the world. He just say Lord Vishnu's name twice and gets teleported in less than a fraction of seconds.

Famous incident of teleportation

One of the most famous incidents of teleportation occurred in 1593 AD when a strangely dressed soldier appeared among the sentries guarding the Plaza Mayor in Mexico City.  This soldier was wearing what appeared to be a guard’s costume, but in no way did it resemble what the other guards around him were wearing. Here is the case of Gil Perez; a man who showed up in Mexico, more than 9,000 nautical miles from Manila Philippines. It is a case from the official records of Mexico which has never been solved.

The story of Gil Perez dates back to the 16th century when he was a Spanish soldier and palace guard of the Palacio del Gobernador (Governor’s Palace) in Manila, Philippines. Gil Perez was just a regular soldier until the morning of October 24, 1593. That day, Perez was on guard duty at the palace when something rather strange happened.
Lack of sleep and a warm day caused Perez to become tired and he decided to take a short nap while leaning against the palace wall. When he reopened his eyes, Perez was surprised to find himself in an unknown location.

Gil perez

As he was still wearing the uniform of the guards of Palacio Del Gobernador, odd clothing for the new location, people began to approach him and wanted to learn who he was and what he was doing there. Perez admitted that while he was aware that he was no longer in the Philippines, he had no idea where he was now or how he had managed to get there.
When it was explained to him by Mexican officials that he was in Mexico City, Perez refused to believe it saying he had received his orders on the morning of October 23rd in Manila and that it was impossible for him to be in Mexico City on the evening of the 24th.
Perez was brought before the Holy Tribunal of the Inquisition where they questioned the soldier extensively. He apparently told authorities that he had travelled from Manila to Mexico “in less time than it takes a cock to crow.”  Under questioning, Perez repeated his story with his testimony taken down by a Friar Gaspar de San Augustin. Here is a translation of Perez's statement as written by the Friar:
 “My name is Gil Perez,” the soldier testified . “As to standing sentry here, I am doing as nearly as possible what I was ordered to do. I was ordered this morning to mount guard at the doors of the governor’s palace in Manilla. I know very well that this is not the governor’s palace and evidently I am not in Manila. Why or how that may be, I know not. But here I am, and this is a palace of some kind, so I am doing my duty as nearly as possible. Last night the governor of the Philippines, His Excellency Don Gomez Perez Dasmarinas, had his head cracked with an axe and is dead of it.”

Ghosts in ancient Egypt

Sightings of ghosts in Egypt have, of course, been reported and documented over many centuries. Curses of people being condemned to walk the desert as disembodied spirits have been some of the more interesting tales of Egyptian haunting. Pharaoh Akhenaten was purportedly condemned by priests who, after his passing from this world, cursed him to be trapped as a ghost who must walk the Earth for the rest of time. Consequently, sightings of

Akhenaten

Akhenaten still surface, even today; whether or not these are true ghost sightings of the ancient Pharaoh cannot be confirmed. After all, his banishment took place some 3300 years ago!
In ancient Egypt, the return of a ghost was also considered a very serious matter.Ancient Egyptian beliefs in the afterlife and ghosts consistently changed over more than a couple thousand years, but belief in the existence of the human soul after the physical body perishes has remained a standard throughout time. For the Egyptians, non-existence was an intolerable concept, and it was believed that, at death, the soul traveled to the Hall of

osiris

Truth where it was judged by Osiris and the 42 Judges by having its heart weighed in balance with the white feather of truth; if the heart was found lighter than the feather, the soul proceeded on to the afterlife, while if it was heavier, it was thrown to the floor where it was eaten by a monster and the soul would cease to exist. One's heart would be lighter if one had lived a good life and heavier if one had not. The afterlife was known as the Field of Reeds, which was a mirror image of one's life on earth in Egypt. One would enjoy the house one knew, the stream by that house, one's favourite tree and dog, and so there was no reason for a soul to want to return to earth unless that soul had a very good reason for doing so.

Tomb

In contrast, in some ancient beliefs of Egypt, the ghost or spirit of the person would live with the body in its tomb. This is why food would be interred along with other items the person might potentially need in the aftelife. The tombs of Egyptian mummies might also contain a small statue, made to look like them, as a backup plan should the body ever be destroyed. The spirit of the person was said to transfer to the statue in such a case.

In 1915, Egyptologist Gaston Maspero published a translation of an ancient Egyptian ghost story, possibly set in Luxor (ancient Thebes, shown above), that was discovered on four pieces of pottery. In the story, a ghost of a mummified man tells a high priest of the god Amun about his current condition.

"I grew, and I did not see the rays of the sun. I did not breathe the air, but darkness was before me every day, and no one came to find me," the ghost says (translation by Maspero).

"The ghost seems to complain of some accident that has happened to himself or to his tomb, but I cannot make out what is the subject of his dissatisfaction," Maspero wrote.The ancient Egyptians believed strongly in life after death, and created a series of spells called the "Book of the Dead," which they believed helped them reach the afterlife.

Top ten haunted places in the world.

Here are the ten most horrifying and spookiest places around the world.

Bhangarh - the most haunted ghost town of India

Located around 220 kms from Delhi, Bhangarh Fort is situated on the border of Sariska Tiger reserve in the Aravali range in the deserted town of Bhangarh, Rajasthan. Bhangarh is a ruined town between Jaipur and Alwar. Bhangarh fort is a major tourist attraction and is said to be one of the most haunted historical places in the world. Many myths are related with this haunted fort.  A place that has so many spooky stories around it that it arouses one's interest immediately. 

   The advisory “Stay Away” notice by The Archeological Survey of India

This is the city of Bhangarh, once glorious now feared. A fort standing in ruins, in desperate need of restoration, stones that were once put together to form walls now crumbling down, remains of what were once shops and houses, surrounded by mountains on 3 sides, huge trees in the campus, a temple at the main gate, a notice outside the main gate by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) that reads,

"Entering the borders of Bhangarh before sunrise and after sunset is strictly prohibited. Legal action would be taken against anybody who does not follow these instructions"

A place whose only inhabitants now are only an army of Monkeys and Langoors.

In ancient times, Unlike other forts in India, it was not merely a king's residence in there. It was, as a matter of fact, an entire town behind those grand walls which now stand shattered. A main market area, lined with ruins of shops from old times, houses and residences of other common and important people and at the far corner the king's palace built at some height and overlooking the entire town.

HISTORY

The town of Bhangarh was established in 1573 by King Bhagwant Das who had 2 sons. Elder one was Man Singh, the famous General of Mughal Emperor Akbar and the second one was Madho Singh. Bhagwant Das laid foundation of Bhangarh as the residence of his second son, Madho Singh who lived and ruled here his entire life. Madho Singh named the city after his grandfather Man Singh who was also known as Bhan Singh and that’s where ‘Bhangarh’ comes from. He was succeeded on the throne by his son Chhatr Singh who died in 1630. Who ruled Bhangarh after Chhatr Singh is not known however the prosperity, wealth and power of the town was lost with death of Chhatr Singh and Bhangarh slowly declined. However though the fort remained as it still had support from the mighty Mughals. After death of Aurangzeb, mughal empire too weakened and it was around this time that Jai Singh II of Jaipur attacked and attached Bhangarh to his state by Force in 1720. The population of Bhangarh started to diminish under Jai Singh's rule. Then came the great famine of 1783, also known as the Chalisa, which left the entire town uninhabited and it has remained so ever since.

Now what really happened here, no one knows for certain. There is very little information about this place in history books and almost next to no information about the kings who ruled here. The little significance that this place holds in history is because of Man Singh, general of Emperor Akbar. If one is to believe historians, it was because of Jai Singh II’s repeated attacks that forced the people to escape. Other historians believe that it was the famine of 1783 that forced people to leave here in search of food elsewhere and they just never returned.

It is also believed by some historians that Bhangarh was inhabited for centuries before it was built into a royal city in 1573. It is said that it was a wealthy town where over 10,000 residents lived in prosperity. Even today it can not be denied that this small town once had grand palaces, well maintained gardens, and beautiful temples.

Whatever happened here in the hills, why this town was deserted is both fascinating and frustrating because of the lack of any robust information. Whatever information is available are mere speculations and beliefs.But if one is to believe the local myths and legends, the story is both interesting and spooky.

The legend of Princess Ratnavati and Singhia

Ratnavati was the princess of Bhangarh and was famed for her elegant beauty all across her own kingdom and the neighboring states. By the time the princess had turned 18, various matrimonial offers from different kingdoms came in a rush. Tempted by the beauty of Princess, Singhia, a black magician (Satanist) decided to lure the princess with his magical powers. So the magician thought to spellbind the princess; he cursed the oil made available by princess’s maid. However, princess recognized the trick and poured the oil on to the ground. The oil on ground turned into a rock and rolled towards the magician and crushed him. In his dying words, the magician cursed the town to death and no moRe rebirths. The curse showed its results in a war between Bhangarh and Ajabgarh, where the princess was assassinated. However, some folk stories tell that the princess has taken a re-birth and the fort is waiting for her return and end the bloodthirsty curse.                                     

There is another version of this story as well. Per the second version, Singhia gave the scented oil to one of the maids tO pass on to the princess. That maid bought the oil to the palace and handed it over to Ratnavati. But what Singhia didn't know that the princess herself was very well verse with the cult and she knew the tantra and spells herself. As soon as she touched the bottle, she knew what Singhia did. She had him captured and brought to the palace as a prisoner where she threw the oil on Singhia. As soon as the cursed oil touched Singhia, the person who himself cursed it, he died a very painful death and it was in his last few moments that he cursed Bhangarh.

The very next year, Bhangarh was attacked by the neighboring kingdom of Ajabgarh. There was a fierce battle which Bhangarh lost and Rani Ratnavati herself died in the battle. The town has been uninhabited ever since.

Another version is that when Ratnavati threw the oil away and as the oil struck the ground it turned into a boulder, which crushed Singhia. Dying, the magician cursed the palace with the death of all who dwelt in it.

There remains to be however another version of this story wherever Ratnavati herself is blamed for the doom of this town. In the first version of this lore, Ratnavati before marriage was in love with a poor man in her father's kingdom. They both knew that their marriage was out of question as Ratnavati was a princess and her lover was just a poor farmer but still could not help but falling madly in love with each other. As it is often shown in the movie, Ratnavati would sneak out of the palace when no one was looking to spend time with the poor boy. On one such instance, they were both caught red-handed by Ratnavati's father, the king. Sensing that her lover would probably be hanged for the crime that he committed by falling in love with a princess, Ratnavati made a pact with her father that she would marry as per his wishes only as long as he forgives the boy and grants him his life. Her father agreed and she was married off to the King of Bhangarh but she always remained in loved with the same boy and could never give her heart to her husband. The boy too did not back out and followed Ratnavati to Bhangarh dressed as a poor beggar and Tantrik. Ratnavati too found out about his presence in Bhangarh and they started meeting each other again. As it happened before, they were again caught by the king, this time Ratnavati's husband who doomed them both to death. Watching her beloved getting beheaded right in front of her eyes, Ratnavati cursed the king and town of Bhangarh to perish right after her death.

Second version of this story is that Ratnavati was in love with Jai Singh of Jaipur and because of this love affair, he kept attacking the town of Bhangarh until it was in ruins. His sole intention was to kill the king, win over Bhangarh as a part of his kingdom and Ratnavati as his wife in which he finally succeeded but at the cost of Bhangarh.

Third version of this story is that Ratnavati was herself a sorceress and was accused of witch-craft. Ever since her marriage, young girls of poor farmers started to mysteriously vanish in middle of the night. Soon it was learnt that it was queen Ratnavati herself who was stealing and sacrificing the girls for eternal beauty. She was dragged out of her quarter and burnt alive. In her painful screams as flames started to consume her, she cursed the town of Bhangarh to doom and remain so forever.

The curse of Guru Balu Nath and the Complex Houses of Fort with no Roofs

It is said that before the fort at Bhangarh was built, a monk or Guru by the name of Balu Nath used to live here alone. He was a sanyasi who had given up all worldly belongings and went to forest to be away from people, common man's desires and dedicate his life to god. He was against the idea of building a town because that would mean a lot of people around , a great amount of disturbance in his daily prayers and will beat the very purpose of him living there to be away from people. However though, after much persuasion by King Bhagwant Das he agreed on one condition that the shadow of the king's palace should never touch Balu Nath or his residence or the city will perish. Bhagwant Das agreed to the condition and so began the construction of Bhangarh Fort. Interesting fact around this is that King's palace only consisted of 3 or 4 floors initially, in order to honor Balu Nath's Condition that the shadow should never reach his residence.

Years passed and the city prospered. Slowly over the time, Balu Nath's warning was forgotten and one of the later kings, Ajab Singh, re-built the palace to a new height by adding 3 more floors to the existing 4. This proved fatal as it caused the palace's shadow to reach the place where Balu Nath lived. Hence what was once a warning turned into a curse and the city doomed. How it happened is something no one can tell. Whether everyone left, or died because of the curse remains a mystery.

Another version of this story is that Balu Nath did not literally mean what he said that the shadow of the palace should never touch him. He merely used it as a metaphor to warn king that he should be left alone and not bothered by people of the town. As time passed, population of Bhangarh grow and Balu Nath's warning was forgotten. When his sanyasi life started to get disturbed by people around, Balu Nath cursed the city to perish.

Interesting thing about this tale is that Balu Nath seems to be an immortal. He laid his condition before the city was built, post which it was ruled by several kings which means that it must have been a long time but Balu Nath somehow managed to survive all those years. He lived and lived until he saw the city doom but what happened to him after the town was deserted is another mystery. Some people believe that his samadhi is still located within the fort from where he rises every night to haunt the palace.

DIFFERENT STORIES PROVIDING EVIDENCES OF PARANORMAL ACTIVITIES IN BHANGARH FORT

These are stories from the past but this isn't where it all ends. There have been recent claims of people getting hurt and even dying because of the ghosts at Bhangarh. A student by the name of Tarun Aakash wrote about how he along with two friends met with an accident after a night spent in Bhangarh. The odd thing, he says, was that they were the only people to have been hurt in a bus of more than 50 people, even though they were sitting 5-6 rows apart.

Few years ago, a man fell into the step-well located within the premises of Bhangarh and hurt his head. While he was being rushed to the hospital, the car crashed and the two others died. An unfortunate accident blamed entirely on ghosts. Locals of course completely support the fact that Bhangarh is indeed haunted. They would tell you laughingly that several people die in Bhangarh each year so their spirits and ghosts are bound to stay here. Several people including the children and old ladies of nearby villages will tell you tall tales about how they encountered "Bhoots, chudail, jinn" within the walls of Bhangarh. Official records however are an entirely different story, "there have been no deaths within this ancient fort. People of course get hurt sometimes because of lose boulders or when they try to act macho or mischievous but no one has ever died here.'

As it happens with every superstitious story, some, specially the locals around believe it is true, while others consider it merely as a made up tale. If we look at all the facts rationally, these legends can easily be waived off. While some try to prove the ghost story right, others want to debunk it by visiting the fort after the dusk.

Every story related to Bhangarh is from two prospectives. One is of the locals who live around here and the second point of view of the tourists who come here because of the interesting tales floating around on the web. One visit and you can easily tell that this place is no more than ruins and fallen walls now. Even though the fact cant not be denied that once in its prime, it was a beautiful fort, a majestic example of medieval architecture. But all that is now gone. Though restoration work is now in full swing, due to lack of care in past years, the beauty of this place has long faded. If a person is interested in old forts and palaces than there are other places in Rajasthan itself that are 100 times better than this. There is nothing to learn about ancient architecture at Bhangarh. Whatever was there has long collapsed and what now stands is work of ASI restoration department, not from several hundred years ago. There is absolutely nothing to see here except for a couple of temples but if you want to visit ancient temples, there are options way better than this.

DRIVING TO BHANGARH - the spookiest place 

Driving to Bhangarh is a pain in all the wrong places. This place is located between Delhi and Jaipur or Agra and Jaipur, close to Alwar. If you are coming from Delhi, every single kilometer after you have crossed Alwar will make your journey a joy ride. The roads are so bad that it feels they were custom made to test your stomach, your butt and your vehicle's suspensions. Story remains the same if you are traveling from Agra or Jaipur' side. There are no signboards around and you will have to stop and ask the locals for directions every few kilometers. If a comfortable vacation is on your mind, Bhangarh is the last place you would want to visit.

Concept of Devil and Evil spirits in Hinduism

There is absolutely no analogue to Satan in Hindu religion. Idea of eternal damnation is an impossibility within Hinduism.There is a Hell (Naraka) for sure..and the Hindu versions of boiling oil and other assorted cruelties remain. But the idea that an act, however heinous, once done condemns forever is not possible.

Why, you ask. Well, according to the Vedas, there are only three principles or entities that exist in reality, in sum total. These three are: Brahm (God), Jeevatma (the countless souls) and Maya (the material energy). Indeed, the universe is made up of these three entities alone. 

In Hinduism there is no single devil as there is in the Western monotheistic religions. Since there is no single God, neither can there be a single adversary to God. Instead, there are many evil spirits, but there are also superior evil beings. Indian religions, including Hinduism as well as Buddhism and Jainism, espouse a universe populated by many spirit beings. There are the spirits that live on the lowest rungs of the cosmos in hell; there are the hungry ghosts that roam the earth; there are the many spirits that indwell homes, rice fields, and forests. But then there are also the mighty devil-gods, called the asuras, who have great power.
In some of the earliest writings of Hinduism, we read of two kinds of divine beings, the Devas—“Gods”—and the Asuras—“lords.” Originally there is no particular distinction between them as good and evil, but in the stories about them there ensues warfare between them, and the devas win out. For example, the deva Indra defeats the asuras. As Hindu thought develops, the asuras assume increasingly the role of malicious beings, causing harm for people and creating conflict with the gods (devas). In the epic poems and the puranas, demon kings (asuras) are the enemies of the great heroes, such as the evil lord Ravana who was defeated by Lord Rama and  Lord Hanuman. 

But here’s the hitch: one should not think of the asuras as essentially and thoroughly evil. They frequently do quite evil things, and there is no question that they are the enemies of the devas. Still, in the end they are only after the same thing as the devas, namely power and glory. And, for that matter, the devas themselves are morally pretty hazy.

All the evil spirits in the Hindu religion are classified under the 'soul' category. Due to their karmas (actions) they are born in those wicked races and such sinful propensities. The Upanishads state that no one can be equal to God.  He is unmatched in power, stature or opulence. Thus, there is no scope for any independent being to work against the will/design of God in Hinduism.

Besides, Hindu scriptures state that any person performs actions only according to his will. Of course, these actions are shaped by his company and atmosphere, but there never is any inherently evil being whispering sin into his ears. 

Yeti - the mysterious creature

You all have been heard about Yeti. Yeti is a hairy ape like creature. It is taller than an average human. It's dwelling place is Himalaya Mountains of Nepal , India, Tibet & Bhutan. Yeti is also known as abominable snowman and Bigfoot. It is believed that Yeti's were the guardians of the mountains. The story of Yeti is deeply rooted in the Nepali culture. Yeti is a Tibetan name. In English yeti means Rock bear. Even Alexander the great demanded to see this creature in 326 bc when he came to conquer the Indus valley. Till now we have heard about only few encounters with yeti. In 1889 British army major L.A Waddel claimed finding an unusual footprints. In 1900s with the arrival of western climbers that strange sightings began to reported on regular basis. In 1925 , a greek photographer on his expedition saw a yeti from the distance of 200 to 300 yards.The elevation was 15,000 feet .He was a learned man and at that time he was working with royal geographical society . While coming down they found footprints of that creature which were huge in size and clear too.

In 1950 Nepali government issued a yeti hunting license for the rather bold sum of $625m. In 1953 Sir Edmund hillary and Tenzing also reported to see large footprints on their Mount Everest expedition . In 1986 one south tryolen mountaineer claimed to have face to face encounter with this legend. He also wrote a book MY QUEST FOR THE YETI.  In 2008 Japanese climbers also claimed to see the footprints of yeti which were 8 inches long. Recently Chinese scientists announced their own 1 million dollars expedition in order to find yeti. Sherpas believe that yeti will show himself only to those who believe in it. Now a days you can see yeti as a fictional character in movies and in video games too. Well believe it or not but you can hear so many stories related with this legend from Sherpas and Nepalis people.
