Explanation:

It all began with the birth of Maria Bernarda Balitaan who when she was born from her
mother's womb was inside some kind of "bolang lamad" (a kind of soft tissue ball). This "ball"
was given to the mother's cousin and she was ordered to throw the "ball" away. The cousin
didn't throw it away because she felt that something is stopping her to do so. Instead she
brought it to the Holy Mountain and left it there. She eventually returned three days later to
the mountain and gave the ball to a midwife who broke it. Lo and behold, there was a little girl
inside the ball.
