  Guardian of Forever - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
The Guardian of Forever is a construct of an unknown, ancient alien race, that apparently functions as a time portal, or gateway to other times and dimensions, located on an ancient planet where the focus of all timelines in the galaxy converge.
The Guardian's power was demonstrated when ship's doctor Leonard McCoy, suffering from the hallucinations induced by a cordrazine overdose, passed through the portal and into the past, where he inadvertently altered history.
The voice of the Guardian was performed by Bart LaRue in "The City on the Edge of Forever" and by James Doohan in "Yesteryear".

 Guardian of Forever   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Sentient and apparently highly intelligent, the Guardian spoke in fairly ambiguous terms, claiming that its answers were being tailored to the level of Human understanding.
Although it was located the middle of ruins which dated back one million years, the Guardian claimed that it had been awaiting a question since "before your sun burned hot in space", a span of some five billion years.
The Guardian could show images of distant times and places, and was apparently designed to act as a portal which allowed travel to those locations.

Benny, armed with this knowledge, goes to Marillian with the relics of Christ's death -- the Grail, the Crown of Thorns, and the Spear of Longinus -- all of which are necessary to operate the Ark and the Sword of Forever.
Marillian admits that he served Gebmoses willingly after his resurrection but has come to realize that Gebmoses is insane; he intends to clone an army from the DNA in the skull of Christ, and use the army to rule the world, crushing out all individuality in favour of a single "perfect" master race.
Her knowledge is slowly forgotten and passes into legend, and she has the mystics of the Orient carve the knowledge into her living skull to preserve it for all time.

Now I can't explain what the Guardian of Forever actually is, because it is not explained- and that's the beauty of it, the Guardian is such a mysterious and compelling alien concept.
There's an understated moment where Kirk marvels at the Guardian of Forever and gives that grand "Strangely compelling isn't it" speech, but Spock has ignored every word of it and continues to remark on his detached study and his tricorder readings.
But here as the Guardian informs us that the natural cause of history has been restored and the Enterprise has come back into existence and they can all go home, Kirk's face doesn't budge, he doesn't register any of the information and his face tells us all we need to know.

Trivia: Early drafts for the Harlan Ellison episode "City on the Edge of Forever" included a guest character, Beckwith, an Enterprise crew member who dealt in addictive "Jewels of Sound; it was Beckwith who escaped into the past, via the Guardian of Forever.
Gene Roddenberry asked him to change this element, on the grounds that no member of *his* crew would ever use or deal in illegal drugs.
According to Ellison's account in the book "Harlan Ellison's the City on the Edge of Forever: The Original Teleplay That Became the Classic Star Trek Episode", for years after the series was cancelled, Roddenberry said that Ellison's original draft had been unusable because "he had Scotty dealing in interplanetary drugs" - although Mr.

This 2CDs/1DVD extended reissue of "Awaken the Guardian" has made a superb job in documenting that golden poque of these progressive metal pioneers.
First of all, the remastered version of the classic album (CD#1) has indeed a brighter sound than the original; but of course there is nothing new at this point in there.
The mere thought of a DVD version of Guardian and The Apparation alone would have been worth the price but including the remix of the original CD and a CD of bonus material truly made the sale a no brainer.
