Lebanese girl cries crystal tears A Lebanese girl has baffled
doctors by producing tiny crystals from her eyes. Since March of
this year, 12-year-old Hasnah Mohamed Meselmani has been producing
tiny crystals at an average rate of seven a day.
Although the crystals are as sharp as cut glass, Hasnah says
she feels no pain and doctors cannot explain the phenomenon. Her
father wants her to see specialists in Europe or America to find
an explanation. Eye surgeon Dr Nasib El-Lakkis said he will be
sending details of this case to an eye surgeons conference in
Spain.

Twelve-year-old Hasnah Mohamed Meselmani produced razor-sharp
glass crystals from her eyes, Share International reported at the
end of 1996. Nabil Matraji, our correspondent in the Lebanon,
contacted the Meselmani family to find out more about the amazing
phenomenon, which lasted from March till November 1996. A
discussion with Hasnah confirmed that the unseen hand behind the
crystal miracle was that of Maitreya. A report about the
mysterious "white knight" follows.
Commotion stirred the Arab world: a girl was making hard glass
crystals, sharp enough to cut paper, appear from her eyes seven
times a day without any apparent injury to herself - it had to be
some kind of miracle. The 12-year-old Hasnah Mohamed Meselmani
became the centre of attention. Religious authorities and
scientists sought answers to the riddle.
The answer soon came: it was 'fraud', and the girl had admitted
it, at least that is how the story was reported. Many people were
upset and disappointed, others, less inclined to believe in
inexplicable 'miracles', were relieved. Lebanon and other Arab
countries declared the file closed and silence descended on the
story of Hasnah Mohamed Meselmani. And yet certain questions
remained unanswered. For instance, questions about the nature of
the so-called fraud. How did Hasnah manage to pull the whole thing
off with crystals coming out of her eyes in full view of
television cameras? If the television pictures were authentic and
anything to go by, then fraud would seem to be out of the
question: the girl's eye was filmed in close-up and showed pieces
of glass slowly pushing out of her eyes as if coming from the
retina.
It all began in March 1996. She was at school when she felt
something strange in her left eye - her first piece of crystal,
which, understandably, troubled her. Back home, she told her
family what had happened and, while she was doing so, a second
piece of crystal appeared in her eye. Her father took her to the
city of Chtaura to see Dr Araji, an ophthalmologist. She stayed in
his clinic for two weeks, and the crystals kept flowing out of her
eye. Dr Araji certified that the pieces were real crystals and
said he had no scientific explanation of the phenomenon. It could
only be understood, he thought, as an act of God. A few days
later, Hasnah was told the same thing in another strange event.
"One night," she told Nabil, "I was still awake when I heard
someone tapping at the window. I got up, walked to the window and
there I saw a man dressed in white. He was sitting on a white
horse, he smiled at me and called me by name. He asked me if I
would go outside to talk to him." Hasnah went out through the
front door.
There stood the "white knight", as she calls him, waiting for
her. He was dressed from head to foot in a white tunic, which also
covered his head and face.
"The white knight" said she needn't be afraid and he introduced
himself to Hasnah as a "messenger from God". A conversation
developed between them about which Hasnah revealed no further
details, apart from the fact that the white knight led her to
understand that it was he who had been behind the crystal tears,
and that all went according to God's will. There was a witness to
the conversation: Hasnah's little brother had followed her
outside, heard his sister speaking, but failed to see who she was
talking to. "The white knight" visited her a few times again and
gave her advice and various warnings. When Hasnah asked when the
tears would stop the answer was: "When God wills."
Hasnah remembered some of the words the "white knight" spoke to
her in her dream. He kissed her on the forehead and said: "I will
always be with you, even when you don't see me."
A fascinating aside: during one of her meetings with the white
knight he advised Hasnah that her whole family should leave their
home temporarily because something unpleasant was about to happen.
The family followed the advice - all except one son. The following
day he was involved in a traffic accident, and although his car
was a write-off, Hasnah's brother escaped without a scratch. The
same evening she met the white knight yet again. He asked: "Didn't
I say that ALL of you should leave the house?"
The story became public: television stations, magazines and
newspapers flocked to the house of the Meselmani family to meet
the girl with the crystal tears.
Lord Maitreya is associated with the appearance of the "white
knight" on a white horse. In the Hindu tradition, Vishnu is
awaited as the Kalki-avatar, also a white rider. In the Bible's
Book of Revelation the rider on the white horse is also spoken of
("and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him [was] called
Faithful and True"; 19:11).
In the Persian tradition the same applies to Sosiosh, about
whom Helena Petrovna Blavatsky wrote in her Theosophical Glossary:
"Sosiosh - The Mazdean Saviour who, like Vishnu, Maitreya Buddha
and others, is expected to appear on a white horse at the end of
the cycle to save mankind.
That Maitreya appeared dressed in white with his face covered
at first is not without significance within the Muslim tradition:
it is forbidden to show the faces or make images of holy people or
divine envoys.
